Chapter 145 The Evil Wind Rises Again

145 The Evil Wind Rises Again

Thanks to Li Jin's sudden intrusion, he was able to escape and came out from the backyard to open the door for business. Xiang Jiannan once again gave up the idea of ​​circulating the Qi in his body.

He felt that the ultimate beneficiary was still his master. This judgment could be seen from the expression on the old Taoist's face before, after they had enjoyed the face-to-face interaction for so long.

If I ask myself whether I have gained anything, the only feeling I have is that I feel a little disgusted. I cannot accept such guidance. It seemed as if the master was addicted just now.

The more I think about it, the harder it is to say.

"The capital county has been in a state of chaos recently."

After the gate was opened, Li Jin didn't ask any more questions. He looked straight ahead and spoke.

He heard some things during the few days he disappeared, so this trip to Ping'an Temple was actually a way to relax.

On the day Xiang Jiannan was arrested and taken to the county town, he looked for some people, but he was met with resistance everywhere and could not get any information at all. He only knew that Prefect Sun came from afar that day and released the young Taoist priest the next day.

Later I heard that there was a fight outside the city, and the person who fought against the young Taoist priest seemed to have suffered a great loss.

The person who took action was an old man named Nie Lao, who soon left the county town and got to know Prefect Sun and others.

Then came the matter of the replacement of the City God of the prefecture, which he did not know until the document from the imperial court came down.

I heard that the clerk had been transferred to Ping'an Town, so I wanted to come and take a look.

We hadn't seen each other for many days, so we just happened to meet. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the document actually contained a deeper meaning.

There is no need to notify Ping'an Town about the replacement of the City God, unless you want someone to see it.

It goes without saying that they were the two Taoist priests from Ping'an Temple. Apart from them, who else in the entire Ping'an Town would have such great abilities that they needed to be specially notified.

"Why, a new prefect?"

With a radiant and rosy face, Gao Yuan thought of Prefect Sun as soon as Li Jin finished speaking.

The last time my disciple came back, he said he met a prefect named Sun who was arrogant and willful. He didn't expect that he would be replaced so soon. He couldn't help sighing as he spoke, as if he and the prefect he had never met were old acquaintances:

"The prefect is also a miserable man."

Here I come again. In this great Zhou Dynasty, no matter human or ghost, in your eyes, there is no one who is not miserable.

Seeing that the master automatically categorized others, Xiang Jiannan, who was standing aside, didn't think so. He just looked at Li Jin quietly.

The people in the Demon Subduing Division have always been very calm, and rarely mention past events when they arise again.

He doesn't care about the affairs of Shou County.

It is possible that the military group began to retaliate, starting with Prefect Sun, then County Magistrate Lin. After dealing with the two of them, it would be their turn finally.

He and his master were actually quite busy during this period, with one thing after another, and their experience became richer. At this time, they were no longer as worried as before.

If you can't avoid it, you can only wait for it to happen. It's best to come early so that you don't become lax.

The matter of the City God has been resolved. Thinking about it now, it seems that it ended very suddenly, just like when it first happened. There was a lot of work, and then it was over.

I once asked my master why those Taoists from Di Zong gave up so easily. The old Taoist twirled his beard and said that they did it because they felt guilty.

Some things have already reached the point of being repaid, and it is more cost-effective to settle them early than to wait until things become a crisis.

Who wouldn't be proactive in self-protection?

After hearing Guan An Wensheng's story, my originally confusing thoughts were somewhat explained.

Same as Chen Jingxuan, timing.

"No, I just heard that the higher-ups are going to send someone down to investigate Magistrate Sun's personal life issues."

"Personal life issues? Does the imperial court care about this?"

Thinking of Magistrate Sun's unreasonable behavior in the court that day, Xiang Jiannan just felt funny after he finished speaking.

This reason is indeed hard to resist.

He didn't know whether Magistrate Sun had any personal problems, but overall, he should be a good official.

There is no way. Now I have offended the military group. If I suspect Governor Sun at this time, it would be tantamount to actively destroying the united front.

Life issues have always been the most difficult to judge. As long as one has emotions, who can guarantee not to make mistakes?

If Prefect Sun was arrested on this charge, Xiang Jiannan would only grit his teeth and say he admired him.

Regarding personal life issues, I can't believe that these words came from Li Koukou. Did Magistrate Sun marry many wives? When the county magistrate saw them, he didn't think his life could be that extravagant.

"Who can say for sure what happens in the court?"

Li Jin had only heard from others about what Magistrate Sun was about to face. It was impossible for him to put more effort into such a matter. He felt that the topic seemed to have gone off track.

The Demon-Subduing Division has a special status in the Great Zhou Dynasty. No matter who is fighting, it basically has nothing to do with them.

Do not fight for power, never get too close to any interest group, and do not deliberately get close to one party just because one party suddenly gains power. Be only responsible for maintaining stability.

Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)

Maintaining a casual relationship with many parties, and being responsible to only one master, that is the Demon Subduing Division.

The most important thing is what I just said, and Prefect Sun only accounts for a very small part of it.

"You didn't come here today for this matter, did you?"

I really like the way Li Jin seems to not care about anything when he talks. I wonder if he also maintains such a relationship with others. Xiang Jiannan can see that he has something else on his mind.

He offended the military generals group and still wanted to run away. He came to the Taoist temple today to remind them, as he did before, to be careful?

Sometimes this big brother is also powerless. The privileges of the Demon-Suppressing Bureau should only be applicable to their internal personnel. If they really encounter some officials, it is actually not that useful.

"Just to see the two Taoist priests."

"There hasn't been much going on in the company lately. I've actually been thinking about you since we last met."

"Thank you for your concern, Young Master Li. My disciple and I have been feeling very comfortable recently."

Since nothing happened, he was naturally in a better mood. He laughed at Li Jin and then said to Gao Yuan.

He saw several pilgrims rushing towards the Ping Temple, and the smile on his face was actually for them.

Given the current popularity of their Ping An Temple, even if An Wensheng's City God Temple is really reopened, it will soon go bankrupt again due to a decline in incense.

The old Taoist priest has always been very accurate in predicting matters like this.

"Masters, have you heard any rumors recently?"

Seeing that Gao Yuan was about to get busy, Li Jin asked one last question before he left. Suddenly, he said something very confusing. The two Taoists beside him were stunned when they heard it, not knowing what he meant.

What kind of rumors are these? Aren’t they everywhere in the world?

"Maybe I'm overthinking. I've become suspicious since we parted ways in the county. If something happens to Prefect Sun, please be careful, Taoist priests."

"Li Jin doesn't know much about what's going on inside either. If you need help, please feel free to ask."

"Don't worry, Young Master Li. We cultivators all have a sense of propriety in our hearts. If a disaster really happens, we will find a way to resolve it."

After Li Jin finished speaking, the pilgrims had already entered the temple. They happily said something and turned around. Xiang Jiannan saw that the master seemed to have added another sentence in between.

Although no sound was made, I could see it clearly. Judging from the shape of the mouth, it seemed to be two words:

Rubbish?
