Chapter 141 Roof Repair
141 Roof repair
When An Wensheng appeared, Xiang Jiannan and his master were standing in the backyard in a daze. They were staring at the roof, as if they were completely unaware of the movement behind them.
“Something big is happening”
"Master, when have I ever lied to you?"
He had already entered the incense hall once at this time. Before he could even cross the threshold, he was knocked away by a force, his face red and his neck thick. An Wensheng looked at the two Taoists without saying a word.
He heard the conversation between Gao Yuan and Xiang Jiannan clearly, so after standing next to them, he first stretched his neck to follow the local customs.
The length of the neck soon exceeded his height. After taking a few glances, he did not see the big event that the little Taoist priest mentioned.
The tiles on the roof were scattered, obviously caused by the impact, leaving several large holes.
…
It's just a small matter, why make it so mysterious?
With your two heights, it would probably be a problem to see the roof clearly. It's installed very well.
This City God actually believed it.
"Hmm? Giraffe!"
After finishing talking with his master, he thought of saying hello to An Wensheng. When he turned his head, he could only see his neck. Xiang Jiannan was so surprised that he almost hit his fat waist.
What's going on? It's only been a short time, but you don't care about your dignity anymore? You are a ghost who has been engraved on the ground, so arrogant!
It's quite scary this late at night.
"Five holes, just fix them tomorrow."
As Xiang Jiannan spoke and retracted his neck, seeing that the two Taoists finally noticed his presence, An Wensheng returned to normal and just shook his official robe.
He is now completely different from before. Everything from the inside out is brand new, including the jade belt around his waist that proves his identity as the City God. If he doesn't show it off, it would be a waste of the flowing colors on it.
The color of the jade belt has changed from light blue to dark green. The darker the night, the more eye-catching the color of the belt becomes.
"So he became the City God?"
Seeing An Wensheng holding the jade belt and walking with his legs spread wide, and exchanging a glance with his master, Xiang Jiannan, who was standing aside, almost became jealous.
An Wensheng's temperament was obviously even better than his own. Not long after his name was written into the Book of Earth, his temperament immediately became different.
He has become the type who is looking for trouble!
The same thing applies to other cases.
Since the Earth Book is in the hands of the Earth Sect, does the Sanqing Temple in the city hold the Heaven Book? Does the Human Sect have the Human Book?
"I was sleeping when the imperial edict came."
In a good mood, he laughed at the two Taoists, and suddenly stood still, looking up at the sky:
"I thought I would be stuck in this Ping'an town forever. Old Taoist priest, I, An Wensheng, really have nothing to say."
After saying this, he bowed and was about to salute, but Gao Yuan, who had remained silent, held out his hand to stop him:
"How many holes did you say there were in the roof?"
"Five."
"It's just right. While we are still excited, I can call my ghost messengers to help the old Taoist priest fix the roof."
"If you have nothing to say, then take some practical actions..."
"That's too much, old Taoist..."
"I, An Wensheng, have lived through two dynasties and have never done anything like this."
"It's ridiculous that a city god has to help people repair roofs on his first day in office!"
Half an hour later, under the supervision of Gao Yuan, several ghost messengers were quickly summoned and floated onto the roof first. When An Wensheng stepped on the tiles, he finally couldn't help but complain.
He had no opinion about the old Taoist priest, but he felt that today's request was a bit outrageous.
And because Gao Yu'an had done him a favor, he had to lead the way after his ghost messengers arrived.
Complaints were inevitable. He had just taken over the position of City God and was facing his subordinates for the first time. He had to set an example and take the lead.
"Go to the town and see if anyone has extra tiles. Move some over quietly."
Ignoring An Wensheng on the roof, Gao Yuan pointed to the top of his head and explained, "Those holes appeared because of your city god. Judging from the sky, it may rain soon. You guys, you must hurry."
"this"
Hearing that the old Taoist priest wanted them to go and steal, the bearded ghost looked embarrassed and spoke hesitantly.
In the past few days, he and several of his men had been wandering around Ping'an Town, hiding during the day and moving at night, so they were able to arrive quickly when An Wensheng issued the first order.
The City God Temple in the capital county will not last long. Without the City God of the prefecture to guard it, it will soon collapse and fall into ruins, unable to withstand the power of the incense.

Di Zong's appointment was very timely. Just when they were feeling uneasy because of the wait, the vacant position of the City God of the prefecture was filled by An Wensheng. Just when they didn't know where to pay a visit, the order of the City God came out.
The location is at Ping An Temple. I came here with great excitement, but to be honest, I feel a little disappointed now.
The new City God seemed to be very soft-hearted. He was actually ordered by Gao Yuan to repair the roof. Although he knew there was something unclear between the two of them, as the City God, he still had to have the minimum dignity.
How can you just rush onto the roof at the command of others? At least hold on for a few rounds to let your subordinates open their eyes.
"Do as Master Gao has instructed. Remember, when moving tiles, you must not disturb the people."
Standing on the roof, he was already prepared for the next big fight. As the City God of the city, An Wensheng was not polite to the bearded ghost messenger and the others.
A new official has three things to do when he takes office, but his fire has not really started yet. Today is the first time that he, as the City God of the prefecture, meets his subordinates. Except for the two Taoist priests, he must establish corresponding prestige.
Otherwise I will be sorry for my new identity.
"Yes, why don't you go out and take a look."
He immediately took the order and signaled his ghost officers to go out for a walk. He moved and floated onto the roof like An Wensheng. The bearded ghost officer's expression changed rapidly.
He had already seen Gao Yuan's strength, and it was not really a grievance to just repair a roof.
If the City God can do it, there is nothing that he, as his subordinate, cannot do. The news from the Book of Earth is clear. Unless something unexpected happens, for a long time to come, the only one he can rely on is the newly appointed City God on the roof - An Wensheng.
Therefore, we need to build good relationships.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Just as the bearded ghost floated onto the roof and was about to get close to An Wensheng, a few gusts of cold wind blew by, and a series of black shadows suddenly fell into the backyard of Ping An Temple.
In a moment, the backyard was packed with people, and everyone knelt on their knees facing the roof.
"Greetings to the Lord City God. I am late because of the long journey. Please forgive me, Lord City God."
"Forget it, everyone, get up. Some of you who are skillful can come up and wait for this City God to finish his work."
Without even turning his head, he just stood on the roof and ordered a few more helpers to come. Seeing that An Wensheng was becoming more and more arrogant as an official, Xiang Jiannan, who was standing under the roof, felt contempt in his heart.
Among the new black shadows, some were ghost messengers under the former City God, while the others were strangers that had never been seen before.
He also knew that the City God's ceremony was quite grand, but he didn't expect it to cause such a big reaction.
There should be more on the way, right? "The tiles are coming, be careful."
Soon after several figures jumped onto the roof, Xiang Jiannan looked up in the direction pointed by the bearded ghost and soon saw piles of rubble floating from the southeast. After they were sent to the roof and dropped down, An Wensheng, who had tied up his sleeves, immediately started working.
While working, he joked with his master:
"Master Gao, I suggest you don't fix these holes. It would be much better to save them for watching the moon!"
"Pave it tightly..."
"Okay, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. I'll invite three or five old ladies who are easy to talk to. People who practice cultivation should be nicer to themselves sometimes!"
