While Chu Chen was drinking tea and discussing Taoism with Long Nu, the underground world of Yunlin County set off a huge wave.
The Yunwu Ghost City is not exclusive to a certain force, but the demonic forces around Yunlin participate together, and they work together to exploit and plunder the people of the whole county and share the feast.
A stronghold in Yunwu Ghost City was suddenly destroyed by mysterious monks for no reason, which caused a sensation in the entire Yunlin underground world.
Yunwushuifu.
Empress Yunzhi was practicing in seclusion, convincing herself to cultivate the gods, and some soldiers and crabs came to report in a hurry, disturbing her quiet practice.
It was a group of Yunlin ghosts and gods asking for an audience.
They are sneaky, they only send their avatars, and no one shows their real body.
Empress Yunzhi was surprised when she saw the posture of all the ghosts and gods.
"What happened? Why are you in such a panic?"
Some ghosts and gods hurriedly reported:
"Your Majesty, something is wrong. A stronghold in the Yunwu Black Market was taken over by a mysterious monk today."
Empress Yunzhi frowned and said displeasedly:
"If you take it, you take it. It's so amazing. Could it be that you participated in it? If you participated, why did you come to me? Once the matter is exposed, no one can protect you."
All the ghosts and gods hurriedly shook their heads and waved their hands. The City God explained hurriedly, sincerely.
"Your Majesty~ We didn't participate, give us ten guts, we don't dare to participate!"
"Yes, yes, the little god swears to the heavens, I did not participate in it, hooking up with monsters is a serious crime of extermination and death, how dare we."
"If we participate, how dare we come to beg your mother?"
All the ghosts and gods swore to each other one after another, and separated each other.
Empress Yunzhi looked around and saw that the words and deeds of the ghosts and gods did not seem to be fake, she knew it in her heart, and said:
"So, you bought Shengmin incense sticks?"
All the ghosts and gods smiled awkwardly and acquiesced.
Empress Yunzhi looked at the crowd of ghosts and gods angrily, angrily:
"You have crossed the line. Once it is found out, how can Xianting forgive you lightly."
The faces of all the ghosts and gods turned pale, they were apprehensive, and they pleaded in low voices
"Your Majesty, we didn't have direct contact with them, but borrowed an avatar, so it should be fine."
Empress Yunzhi shook her head and said with disdain:
"The biggest devil in people's hearts is luck. You think that you can get out of trouble without contact with demons. You can't wrap fire with paper, and the sky net is restored. You are too greedy."
When the ghosts and gods heard the words, their eyes were full of fear and worry.
"Niang Niang, we don't pay less filial piety to you at ordinary times, and make offerings to you every year, so you can't ignore us."
All the ghosts and gods were in a hurry.
Empress Yunzhi snorted coldly, and said: "It's not that I don't care about my loyalty. A few days ago, the new county governor took office. I suppressed Chu Duguan for you, and then I even gave him a daughter in order to win him over. Gong has already done the utmost of benevolence and righteousness."
"This"
A group of ghosts and gods hesitated to speak.
Empress Yunzhi saw the complicated colors in the eyes of all the ghosts and gods, and the eyes were complicated, and said:
"Hey, I can only blame this palace for discovering it too late and pampering you. If you are in trouble, this palace will also suffer. Anyway, this palace will try my best to mediate for you."
"Thank you for your kindness!"
All the ghosts and gods breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Empress Yun Zhi didn't let her go.
They didn't have any direct connection with the demons, they just bought some incense sticks of unknown origin, and they were suspected of "selling stolen goods" for the demons. There was a lot of room for mediation in this crime.
If there is a fifth-rank god speaking for them, it will clear up the relationship.
Even if the incident happens in the future, they will be given a lighter sentence.
Empress Yunzhi glanced at everyone, she looked quite disgusted, and asked impatiently:
"I'm in retreat today, so I don't know anything about it? Who wiped out the Black Mist Ghost City? Have you received the news?"
Some ghosts and gods hurriedly said:
"My lady, the little god has inquired about it. There was a fierce fighting in the dense forest outside the stronghold. All the demons and ghosts in the market disappeared, as if they were wiped out by the strong. Only ordinary people escaped."
"According to the people who escaped, they met an old god who was a chivalrous man who acted righteously and did justice for the heavens."
"Some people saw this monk with the appearance of an old man talking with the owner of the stronghold. It is said that the man was not an immortal official in the fairy court, but a wandering monk who traveled from Youzhou. The chivalry took action and wiped it out."
Some ghosts and gods will report the news to Empress Yunzhi.
Empress Yun Zhi pondered for a while, and said:
"Reliable news?"
A ghost said: "Madam, trust me, the little god cast spells himself, and communicated with a commoner in a dream. He saw it with his own eyes. The little god dares to guarantee that he was not deceived by anyone, and everything he saw with his own eyes."
Empress Yunzhi nodded slightly:
"Since it wasn't the immortal officials from Xianting, you can breathe a sigh of relief. The demons are treacherous and strict in their work. If a stronghold is swept away, I don't think too much news will be revealed."
"Oh, I hope so!"
All the ghosts and gods felt melancholy, and they didn't seem to relax at all, as if there was a god hanging high above their heads, ready to be chopped off at any time.
Empress Yunzhi guessed the thoughts of all the ghosts and gods, shook her head, and did not persuade them much.
Feeling blessed, Empress Yunzhi thought of the newly appointed county governor, and asked:
"What is that Chu Duguan doing these days?"
"My lady, Chu Duguan stayed in Yunlin City a few days ago. He only haunted his residence and Duguan's study room. He lived in seclusion and didn't take much care of his affairs. It caused a lot of criticism in the County Department of Ghosts and Gods."
"No, this Chu Duguan went out to inspect today, and I don't know where to go to work."
"From my point of view, this Chu Duguan is a penance who is not good at governing the place. We were nervous before."
Not long after, all the ghosts and gods left one after another.
In the palace of Shuifu, Empress Yunzhi frowned and fell into deep thought.
This is too coincidental.
On weekdays, there was no accident in Yunwu Ghost City, but as soon as this Chu Duguan left the city, something happened immediately.
I don't know if it's a coincidence.
Thinking of this, Empress Yunzhi put her hand deep into her sleeve, took out a colorful shell, put it near her mouth, and transmitted her spiritual consciousness:
"Hear the call and come back quickly!"
"Hearing the call back quickly"
After half a stick of incense.
Empress Yunzhi was playing with shells in her hands, with a serious expression on her face.
"Why can't I get in touch?"
Not long after, Chu Chen arrived in Yunlin County and went straight into Du Guan's study.
Yun and Lin, two vice-deputies, came over respectfully to ask for instructions as usual.
The two worked hard and managed all the affairs of the Ghost and God Division in an orderly manner, and did not show any abnormalities.
Chu Chen couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Qingquan Sanren also came to the Tuguan study to ask for instructions. However, he didn't mention anything about the ghosts and gods department, but asked:
"Chu Du Guan, if you go out to inspect today, can you gain anything?"
Chu Chen nodded slightly:
"It's been a lot of harvest. I can vaguely find out that the luck of the country and the power of the people in Yunlin County have been weakened. If you don't look at it, you don't know it. When you see it, you are shocked. Loans are common everywhere among the people, but all wealthy and powerful households with some background will lend and exploit them. Common people, it is no wonder that the luck of the country and the will of the people are not weakened."
Qingquan Sanren was startled, and was overjoyed:
"Chu Du Guan's eyes are as bright as a torch, and he sees every detail. He is indeed a young leader sent by his superiors. The poor Taoist misunderstood you. It turns out that you have not been idle these few days."
"I don't care. Pindao has reported the Yun and Lin families. They are the source of the disaster in Yunlin County. The trend of lending started from their two families. Local tyrants who are both human races exploit and plunder the people are often fiercer than demons and gods."
"From the point of view of the poor, we should use thunder to plow the court and sweep the acupoints, vigorously suppress and punish, so as to rectify the world and return the world to a clear and bright place!"
