Zhong Kui was a little confused after hearing this.
Li You was indeed working for the underworld, so how did he become a liar?
Mr. Meng and Master Zhai both knew about it, so why did they restrict his footing?
"Li... You, what did you do?"
Zhong Li, who was following behind, said disdainfully.
"He claims to be a merchant from the underworld, selling Fengdu Road Passes everywhere. He's so shameless. Brother, you'd better avoid associating with him in the future."
Du Ping nodded.
"These days, scammers are becoming more and more rampant. Taking advantage of the power that the Pluto King just displayed, they're now scamming people in Qianji City, unafraid that the ghost messengers from the underworld will snatch their souls away."
Zhong Kui smiled bitterly.
Is there something wrong?
The tour had not yet started, and he planned to go see Li You and ask about the situation.
…
Li You lay in the room, feeling like crying but unable to do so.
He was indeed from a Qianmen family and had been engaged in fraudulent activities before.
But he dared to swear that he really didn't lie this time.
Ever since he and Heizi pretended to be Hei Wuchang and tricked Kong Hanan, he has never cheated anyone again.
The most recent scam was to cooperate with Gou Qi and Li Mihai under Kong Hanan to cheat zombies.
Zombies are not considered human beings!
This Fengdu Pass was the idea of His Majesty the King of Hell.
Li You runs a business for the underworld, which is a legitimate business.
I've been doing this job for almost two months, but the business hasn't opened yet.
It's a rare occasion for Pluto Kong Hanan to show his divine power in Qianji City, which is just the right time to sell something.
Unexpectedly, not only did I fail to sell it, I was also reported and put under house arrest!
In this world, when he lies, he always succeeds, but why is it that when he stops lying, no one believes him?
Just when he was feeling helpless, Meng Yu came in with some food.
"Brother Li, we're sorry to have to bear with you for a while. We can't do anything about it. Public opinion is surging outside."
Li You was puzzled.
"You and Master Zhai are the actual controllers of Qianji City, don't you have your own opinions? I was in the teahouse earlier and heard some people criticizing His Majesty the Pluto, saying that letting the demons kill the attacking troops outside the city was an unkind and unjust act. I didn't see you lock them up!?"
Meng Yu shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"This is public opinion, this is public opinion."
As the saying goes, the more you value something, the more restricted you become.
Zhong Kui treated his sister like this, and Meng Yu treated the refugees in Qianji City like this.
"By the way, Brother Kong's injury is not serious, right?"
Li You blinked, and the rascally and mischievous nature of the Qianmen disciples was fully revealed.
"What the hell are you thinking? How could His Majesty Pluto be injured?"
"Don't try to change the subject. I'm telling you, Qin Jijiu is also testing me. If I can't sell the pass, don't blame me for being ruthless to you in the future."
Kong Hanan was indeed not injured, but his condition was not very good.
The Heavenly Punishment Sword can kill gods and seize laws and authority, but it also comes at a price.
If you want to avoid backlash, you must unsheathe the Heavenly Punishment Sword and drink the divine blood.
Dongji Qinghua is one of the top gods, and the divine blood of one clone is not enough.
There are some other miscellaneous reserves of divine blood on the sword, namely those rust spots.
But the balance between different forces still requires Kong Hanan to maneuver.
So Kong Hanan went back to the underworld to rest.
The human world's rejection of him was too severe, and life in the human world was actually not as easy as in the underworld.
Qin Guang issued a strict order that such confidential matters could not be disclosed to outsiders, even Zhong Kui was kept in the dark.
Li You deeply felt their trust in him. No matter how Meng Yu asked, he would not admit that there was anything wrong with the Lord's condition.
Meng Yu had some guesses in his mind.
No matter how strong Kong Hanan is, he is only at the Mahayana stage now and has not yet passed the tribulation and become an immortal.
He didn't quite believe that a clone of the main god could be killed in this way without any side effects.
Kong Hanan is not a Taoist Saint...
Seeing Li You's expression, he knew that he couldn't ask anything.
In fact, even if you can't ask, the answer is already there.
But Meng Yu didn't need to point it out, he just bowed to Li You.
"Brother Li, please pass on a message. Both forces have sent out envoys, and both sides have invited Hades to meet."
The two forces, of course, refer to the eldest prince's faction and the crown prince's faction.
The old emperor's body has been lying in state for a month and a half, but the brothers still haven't settled the dispute.
Confucius also attached great importance to etiquette and rules. The old emperor would not be buried until the prince officially ascended the throne.
In August and September, the corpses are probably...
Thinking of this, Li You felt nauseous.
He could see that Confucius was using filial piety to force the eldest prince to surrender.
The eldest prince was also a scoundrel. He would rather not bury the old emperor than to insist on suspecting there was some conspiracy behind his death.
Both sides were ruthless, so the situation became stagnant.
They probably heard that Kong Hanan showed up in Qianji City, so they all gathered around like flies smelling something.
Li You waved his hand impatiently.
"What you choose in Qianji City is your business. The Underworld is the Underworld, and the Pluto is the King of the Underworld. The affairs of the human world have nothing to do with us."
Meng Yu let out a long sigh.
"Brother Li, you are a man of the underworld, you don't understand the ins and outs of this."
Meng Yu's teacher was Confucius. Although Confucius was a distant relative of Kong Han'an, they were also blood relatives. This was decided by the old emperor at the court meeting.
What's more, Kong Han'an also holds the official position of acting director of Huangquan Prison.
In the name of the prime minister of the court, Confucius asked Kong Han'an to go and pray for the old emperor's soul. This is a righteous cause.
If Kong Hanan doesn't leave, people in the world will probably say that Kong Hanan is heartless and ungrateful.
What's more, Confucius now holds the power to confer titles on the immortals in heaven, and all the gods and Buddhas are flocking to him.
