Sha Whale Pattern's face was grim: "When did our bureau ever have an internal appointment?"

"No?" Hu Chenrui said, "This is what Wu Changgong said after he came to Huaijiang."

Lan Quanxian was stunned: "Wu Changgong is obviously not capable enough!"

"Indeed, I think even those who came from the Qiwu Bureau are not very good." Hu Chenrui pointedly criticized Huaijiang.

The two sides confronted each other, and the atmosphere was tense in an instant.

"Oh, that's enough, stop talking." Ye Huayu hurriedly tried to smooth things over. He shook the watch on his wrist, trying to blind Sha Whale Wen, "Sha Sha, look at my watch. Isn't it beautiful? Is it new? Let's talk about something else?"

"No, no." Sha Whale Wen refused, as if he was afraid of being pestered. He took Lan Quan and wanted to leave first. Just after taking two steps, he suddenly turned his head and warned, "Don't call me Sha Sha. You call him Lao Hu, but you always call me Sha Sha. What does that mean?"

Ye Huayu was stunned: "But you are the shark?"

"A shark can't be called Shasha!" Sha Whale Wen, who looks tough and seems to be good at fighting, said angrily, "Why don't you call him Hu Hu?"

Ye Huayu: "This is not as easy to call as Shasha..."

Sha Whale Wen was angry: "You just look down on me because you made money!"

"What does this have to do with that?" Ye Huayu saw Director Sha walking away in surprise, and asked in surprise, "Why are you firing at me?"

Before Lan Quanxian left, he looked at Hu Chenrui and said in a deep voice: "Director Hu, I hope you don't forget that there was no problem with that person before, but everything will change."

Sha Whale Wen and Lan Quanxian walked away. Ye Huayu said hello to Hu Chenrui and immediately ran after him. Only members of the Huaijiang Observation Bureau were left at the scene.

Chu Zhishui heard what Lan Quanxian said and asked in confusion: "Who?"

"Director Ye seems to have mentioned to you the conflict between the God and the Dragon God in the past." Hu Chenrui looked up at Xin Yunmao, only to see him put his hands in his pockets, with no reaction on his face, as if it had nothing to do with him.

Chu Zhishui nodded: "Yes, he said a little."

"Qiwu is the birthplace of the Dragon God. He used to have a very high reputation there, and even now he still has followers. There are still many Dragon God temples left in the area." Hu Chenrui said, "As long as the temples are not eradicated, the sea water in Qiwu will contain evil spirits, making it impossible for the Dragon God's power to dissipate."

"He is still a mermaid, so the feelings are deeper and the hostility will be greater." Hu Chenrui said helplessly. He looked around and could no longer see Lan Quanxian's back.

Chu Zhishui: “Mermaids?”

Xin Yunmao crossed his arms over his chest and explained expressionlessly: “Mermaids used to be loyal followers of the dragon.”

During the war, the mermaids were the most aggressive, but he never went into the sea, so it had no effect.

"Later, the mermaids split internally. Some, like the one just now, no longer believed in the Dragon God, and some still lingered in the Dragon God Temple, interfering with the normal work of the Qiwu Bureau." Hu Chenrui said, "So he is mentally normal, which is quite sad. He can't even trust his own species, let alone other species."

Lan Quan was first a mermaid, the group that believed in the Dragon God the most. After his faith collapsed, he entered the Qiwu Bureau and is currently still dealing with the remaining forces of the Dragon God Temple. They are undoubtedly the group that is most prejudiced against Xin Yunmao, and it is difficult to change their stubborn thinking overnight.

Hu Chenrui smiled: "But don't worry, he is a regular section chief, and you are a deputy director, he dare not speak loudly to you."

"Director Hu, I just wanted to ask, why didn't I know that I was elected as a deputy director?" Chu Zhishui sighed, "There was not even a voting process."

"I didn't know that I was elected as the director of Huaijiang Bureau at that time. They told me that this is called popular support, so it's normal that you don't know that you were elected as a deputy director. This should also be popular support." Hu Chenrui said nonchalantly.

Hu Chenrui didn't even experience the voting at that time, and only then did he find out that the list had been predetermined.

Chu Zhishui hesitated: "But I don't have enough years of service?"

"Xiao Chu, you have to understand one thing. In your case, you can only be promoted by exception." Hu Chenrui taught him sternly, "If we really want to promote based on seniority, how can you be promoted? You can't be promoted above us."

Chu Zhishui remembered that the last newcomer, Jin Yu, had been in the bureau for 20 years. She suddenly understood what Director Hu meant and said, "So that's it."

If she was really promoted based on years of service, she would have no chance in this life.

"Okay, these are all small matters." Hu Chenrui waved goodbye, "I will have a meeting with them this afternoon. When I come back, the store should be ready. You can go around and choose a place later."

Director Hu was completely confident of winning and didn't care about Director Sha and Lan Quanxian at all.

Chu Zhishui watched Director Hu leave, then she looked at Xin Yunmao and asked curiously, "Since there is a Dragon God Temple, is there a Bamboo God Temple?"

"No." Xin Yunmao sneered, "Such temples are built by humans. I don't want to respond to their stupid wishes. I don't need such messy things."

He never developed believers before, so there would naturally be no Bamboo God Temple.

He didn't think the division of the mermaids was tragic. It was entirely their own fault. They placed their trust in the empty Dragon God, and they deserved to be torn apart and kill each other. Their pain was brought upon themselves. If they hadn't asked the Dragon God for something in the first place, how could such a tragedy have occurred.

Xin Yunmao's brows were furrowed, his expression was tense, and he was unhappy all over. He obviously didn't like to mention the Dragon God.

Chu Zhishui thought for a moment: "Oh——"

"What's that expression on your face?" Xin Yunmao hesitated for a few seconds, he glanced at her and whispered, "Do you think I'm great without a temple?"

He did dislike these things, but temples were a symbol of prestige. Wouldn't she think she was worse than the Dragon God?

"No, since it's humans who build temples, why don't I build one for you." Chu Zhishui said casually, "I'll put the rocking chair in the yard, and put some teapots and water in it for you, and it will be your bamboo temple."

Xin Yunmao thought of the ancient rattan rocking chair, and said in surprise, "Is that my temple?"

Chu Zhishui raised his eyebrows, "I'm your only believer, so it must be simple. Do you still think it's not worth it?"

Xin Yunmao was silent for a long time, and reminded, "If you build a temple there, it will be my activity area, and you can't regret it later."

It's easy to build a temple but difficult to dismantle it. If humans build a temple, they are inviting gods to come, which is equivalent to handing over the right to use it.

"Okay, since the bamboos are all planted here, you can still move around now, and it doesn't matter if it becomes a temple."

Xin Yunmao was speechless for a long time after hearing her agreement. He always felt that the hole deep in his heart was filled. He had been surrounded and suppressed for no reason since he was born, and a thousand years had been wasted in the blink of an eye. Finally, a change occurred at this moment.

After the war, the monsters were afraid of and wary of him. He learned from the deep black dragon flames that humans were ugly, and he was even more unwilling to get close to the insatiable crowd.

But now some people are talking about building a temple for him, and they still don’t have any rituals.

"How strange." Xin Yunmao lowered his eyes, "I haven't fulfilled your wishes, why do you want to build a temple for me?"

Chu Zhishui was surprised: "Haven't I fulfilled a lot of them?"

"Can that be called a wish?" He was surprised, "They are all trivial matters, even humans can do it."

She vowed: "If I say it is a wish, it is a wish. You should pay attention to customer needs. Even the smallest needs are important."

"...Okay."

Xin Yunmao's eyes were like a lake under the warm sun, with shimmering light in his eyes. He whispered: "But generally temples are built indoors."

Chu Zhishui was in a daze: "Ah?"

He hesitated awkwardly: "So it shouldn't be built in the yard, it should be built in your home."

"?"

"You wish." Chu Zhishui's face was flushed, "You can't enter my house!"

"Why?" Xin Yunmao muttered, "Temple will not be built in the bedroom, basically in the living room."

"Shut up, no." She said firmly, "Unless I hang you on the wall as a sacrifice, you are not allowed to think about my living room."

"..."

In the conference room, Hu Chenrui pushed the door and saw Ye Huayu and Sha Whale Wen. The annual directors' meeting is held here. There are only four directors in the room, and other employees will not participate.

Hu Chenrui swept the empty seats and asked, "Is Director Huang not here yet?"

"Old Huang can't come." Ye Huayu said, "The situation in Kongsang has changed recently, and many Dragon God Temples have revived, even more than Qi Wu's side."

Of course, the directors' meeting is not just about money. Regularly exchanging information and discussing the work of the bureau are the most important things.

Sand Whale Pattern's expression was solemn: "Qiwu has not been stable in the past two years. We suspect that the Dragon God has sensed something and tried to get out of the seal. Even the exiled mermaids have become arrogant."

"Even after all this, you are still targeting us." Hu Chenrui said, "If the Dragon God's seal is broken, do you think I should lower myself to ask him for help?"

Sand Whale Pattern: "If the Dragon God really comes out of the seal, he will definitely go to him first..."

Hu Chenrui retorted: "That's not necessarily true. He might help the old troops to clean up the Qiwu Bureau first. You have been fighting with his followers for many years, and you have destroyed countless Dragon God temples. The resentment is deep."

Sand Whale Pattern: "..."

"There have been some incidents in Huaijiang recently, but they have been basically dealt with and nothing serious has happened. Miaolu has discovered the evil aura of the Dragon God in his jurisdiction. You have to know that this is near his birthplace. The Dragon God shouldn't make such a fuss unless he has no other choice, unless he feels it's urgent and something must be accomplished within the next hundred years."

Hu Chenrui held an ancient coin in his hand. He played with it repeatedly in his hand, as if he was looking at something through the coin.

"Are you talking about the legend of Kongsang?" Ye Huayu seemed to understand, "He wants to find the person from that year."

Sha Whale Pattern questioned: "But can humans have reincarnation? I have never heard of it."

"They have been deified, maybe the world they see is different from ours." Hu Chenrui said, "This is just a guess. If this is true, there will be no peace in the past hundred years. You should eliminate the barriers with him, otherwise the Dragon God will come out and no monster can stop him."

Xin Yunmao was unlucky that year. He was attacked as soon as he was born, but the Dragon God had been beaten once, so he might use a roundabout tactic this time and not go to Huaijiang to find trouble first.

According to Xin Yunmao's character, if others don't hit him, he will definitely not do it, and it is even more impossible for him to take the initiative to help other monsters.

Sha Whale Wen thought for a long time and said, "We have been in a tense relationship with him for so long, especially Qi Wu is what he hates the most. Do you think he will accept reconciliation?"

Hu Chenrui said calmly, "I understand your concerns. What happened before is irreversible, but now there is a chance for you to ease the relationship with him."

Ye Huayu and Sha Whale Wen listened to his mysterious words, they were puzzled and confused for a while.

"What opportunity?"

"Call him the Lord of God..." Hu Chenrui took out a piece of paper, "Then transfer the business fee, sign the contract, and rent the front door to our Economic Development Department to open a store!"

He believed that as long as Chu Zhishui's direct store went smoothly, the Lord of God would treat all the monsters as a fart.
