This Liao Zhai is not right

【Name: Su Su】

[Divine Power: 102]

[Status: Severely injured and waiting to be healed (Inner elixir ruptured, the statue is just beginning to take shape)]

[Clergy: Temporarily taking over the land of Guobei County, Jichuan Prefecture, under the jurisdiction of Baishui and Guojia Villages]

[Lifespan: 6 years and 153 days]

'The divine power tempers the body, and the broken inner elixir is repaired to a great extent'

"The land god is responsible for the safety of the area. Fifteen miles east of Guobei County, there is a demon in Lanruo Temple that is committing evil. If left unchecked, disaster may come."

After a quarter of an hour, the numbness and itching that spread from the inner elixir to the whole body gradually subsided. Su Su felt warm all over, and the dull pain three inches below the navel that had been infinitely magnified was greatly relieved.

"call......"

"This is outrageous. It's just healing, but it's like a major health check."

Su Fu sighed, his eyes sweeping over the civil and military judges who had obediently carried Li Dingyuan into the City God Temple, "You refused to listen to my kind words of advice and insisted on forcing me to convince you with my virtue."

When the civil and military judges heard this, they thought Su Su was dissatisfied with them and looked extremely frightened.

Without paying any attention to them, Su Su turned around and walked out of the City God Temple. Soon he disappeared, leaving behind the civil and military judges and many ghostly yamen runners in the City God Temple looking at each other in bewilderment.

The local god of Baishui Township is really hard to serve.

When it comes to dealing with the Tree Demon Grandma, Su Su has no hope in the many ghostly yamen runners or civil and military judges in the City God Temple. It would be fine if he let them bully ordinary ghosts and ruffians, but they would only die if they met a transformed monster like the Tree Demon Grandma.

Now in the territory of Guobei County, apart from Yan Chixia who can get rid of the tree demon grandma with certainty, even Su Su, who won the position of land god of Guobei County from Li Dingyuan, is not very confident.

While I was thinking, I unknowingly walked to the city gate and saw a donkey cart slowly driving into the city.

"The journey to Yangzhou is dangerous. I am an old woman who is very lucky. I rushed to the Monastery outside Guobei County to rest last night, but I missed the time and had to find another place to stay. Today I learned that a murder occurred in the Monastery outside Guobei County last night, and more than a dozen monks died. I am really scared."

An old woman in the donkey cart was talking in a muffled voice. It turned out that she had missed the time and avoided the tragedy that happened in Lanruo Temple outside Guobei County last night.

Su Su couldn't help but be intrigued, and hurried forward to see who was so lucky.

Just as he approached a few steps, a soft voice came from the donkey cart: "Mother is blessed with great fortune. She will surely turn misfortune into fortune and turn disaster into blessing."

The old woman was obviously very pleased with what he said, and she smiled and said, "I have lived alone for half my life, and now that I am nearly 70 years old, I have no regrets to have such a pretty girl as my daughter."

What a scene of loving mother and filial daughter, not to mention that they are not biological children.

However, the next moment, the tender conversation suddenly changed.

"Now we are only two or three days away from Yangzhou, and I should also tell you something. Mr. Zong is from a wealthy family in Taiyuan, and his family's wealth is incalculable. I have been in contact with him. Mr. Zong's eldest son is nearly fourteen years old and has not yet married. This trip to Yangzhou is to promote the marriage of the two of you. My daughter, you must be smart. There are many beautiful women in the world, but only a few can catch a rich husband and enjoy endless wealth and glory for the rest of their lives."

"My daughter knows, but I don't know what kind of temperament this young master of the clan has. My daughter is really a little uneasy."

"The eldest son of the clan is named Zimei, and he is as gentle as a virgin. He is a blessed man and will definitely not treat you unfairly."

Good guy.

Su Su exclaimed, "What a good fellow."

Old woman, are you taking your daughter to Yangzhou to hook up with a rich man?

Chapter 14 City God Li Dingyuan? Who is that? I don’t know him!

Listening carefully, Su Su felt that the soft female voice in the donkey cart was full of sorrow. It was obvious that she was not willing to marry into the Zong family, but she had no choice but to let the old woman arrange it.

Maybe there is something unspeakable.

The whispering in the donkey cart continued.

Su Su did not stop walking. He was more curious about whether the mother and daughter avoided Lanruo Temple intentionally or unintentionally than any other miscellaneous things.

When ordinary people travel around the world, they are most afraid to offend three types of people: monks, Taoists, and women and children.

The first two are mysterious and unfathomable, they might be hermits living in seclusion in the mountains, while the women and children walking alone must have someone to rely on, either they are bandits deliberately releasing bait to lure people into the trap, or they are transformed mountain spirits and wild ghosts, who will die tragically if they are not careful.

Although the mother and daughter hired a driver to drive the donkey cart to travel, one of them was an old woman in her seventies and the other was a pretty young woman. If the driver met a murderer with evil intentions on the way, it was foreseeable that they would end up in a tragic situation.

No matter how small the probability is, it will become infinitely close to certainty when placed on the premise of a long journey.

However, not only did the mother and daughter arrive safely in Guobei County before the sunset curfew, they also planned to stay at Lanruo Temple but seemed to have hit the jackpot and avoided danger.

If you are really lucky and avoid it unintentionally, it will be fine. But if you do it intentionally, maybe you can be of help in dealing with the tree demon.

Therefore, Su Su could not help but take it seriously.

He made up his mind to follow closely behind the donkey cart about ten steps, so that he could vaguely hear the whispers inside the donkey cart without getting too close and exposing his whereabouts.

However, the conversation between the mother and daughter in the donkey cart never involved the content of going to Lanruo Temple outside Guobei County, which made Su Su feel depressed: "Even if they avoided Lanruo Temple, they would not have ignored the tree demon grandma as if nothing had happened... Could it be that this mother and daughter were just lucky?"

Following behind the donkey cart, Su Su was lost in thought.

In any case, upon learning that more than a dozen wandering monks had died overnight in the Lanruo Temple where they were planning to stay, no normal person would be able to let the matter go in just a few words. The more normal this mother and daughter behaved, the more abnormal they seemed.

“Puff, puff, puff…”

Su Su was thinking about the unusual things about this mother and daughter when he suddenly heard a shout.

It turned out that the old donkey pulling the cart in front was shouted at by the driver to pull the reins to slow down, and the donkey stopped in front of an inn in the city.

"Mrs. Lin, we have arrived at the inn in the city."

The driver got off the donkey cart and pulled open the curtain. An old woman with a hunched body, loose teeth and gray hair leaned out, looked at the inn in front of her, and said, "We will stay here today and set off again tomorrow morning. You should come out too. It's getting dark and it will be difficult to find a place to stay after curfew."

"My daughter knows."

Following the sound, I saw a young woman getting out of the car. Her swaying steps revealed a pure and delicate charm. Her fair face was so delicate without any makeup that it could be blown away. Even her dress of blue and white cloth could not hide her exquisite figure. She was truly a stunning beauty in the world.

Su Su stopped instinctively.

She is so beautiful yet she dares to run around in the wilderness. Even after the long journey, her face does not show any sign of fatigue, and her cloth dress looks spotless as if it has just been washed.

Who would believe you if you said there is no problem?

On the contrary, Mrs. Lin looked exhausted. After getting off the donkey cart, she was either complaining about back pain or dizziness.

The woman in a blue and white silk dress came forward and whispered a few words of comfort. The fatigue on Mrs. Lin's face immediately lessened a lot, and even the sound of her complaints about back pain and dizziness became lighter.

"It's only two or three days' journey to Yangzhou. Mother is so tired, why not rest for a few days in Guobei County? Why rush?"

"Don't mention it. The elder Zong is in worse health than an old woman like me. He might die someday."

"Don't you even have time to rest for a few days?"

"If we delay, something bad may happen. We can't delay this marriage."

"Just do as mother says."

With his head lowered and his brows slightly furrowed, his aggrieved posture made me feel pity for him.

But he didn't know if it was Su Su's illusion. When the woman in the blue and white silk skirt said this, he always felt that there was an indescribable meaning in her cold eyes.

With this attitude and these words, if it were an ordinary person, he would definitely be unable to stop the blood boiling and would jump out to be a hero to save the beauty.

At this moment, Su Su's heart immediately became alert, "Something is wrong...very wrong, I feel like she has already discovered that I have been following the donkey cart all the way."

The woman in the blue and white silk dress clearly didn't look at him, but Su Fu felt uncomfortable all over, as if someone was staring at him.

In this situation, how could it not know that the problem lies with the woman in the blue and white silk skirt?

Was discovered.

Run away quickly!

The strange behavior of the woman in the blue and white silk skirt made Su Su give up his plan of seeking help from the mother and daughter to deal with the tree demon.

Turn around and run away.

After it left, the woman in the blue and white silk skirt smiled from her slightly frowned brows. As she helped Mrs. Lin into the inn, she suddenly said, "Mother said that Zong Weng was born into a wealthy family in Taiyuan, and his family's wealth is incalculable. But I saw that there are also wealthy families in Guobei County."

The night wind blew in from outside the city, and the chill was penetrating.

Mrs. Lin looked around and saw only low wooden houses everywhere. In the more remote places there were even a few mud brick huts. The only one that was barely noticeable was a house with two courtyards.

The scene was so shabby and dilapidated that it was not enough to describe it.

"Guobei County is poor and miserable. There are no rich families here. You must be seeing things." Mrs. Lin pointed out the poverty level of Guobei County.

The woman in the blue and white silk skirt did not refute, but just murmured softly: "The divine power is pure and thorough, even the Zong family with the legacy of their ancestors is far from it. I didn't expect that there is such an opportunity hidden in Guobei County. It can save me a lot of trouble. There is no need to go to Yangzhou."

Su Su obviously didn't know that he had become a hot commodity in the eyes of the woman in the blue and white silk skirt.

Before it got completely dark, he walked back to the City God Temple, banged on the incense burner that was still warm, and shouted loudly, "It's time to go to work! It's time to go to work!"

As the wind blew, civil and military judges as well as many ghostly yamen runners appeared together, making the small City God Temple look like the underworld.

"What is your command from the Lord God?"

The civil and military judges looked terrified, not knowing what Su Su was up to, so they could only smile cautiously.

"What do you want? Living people sleep at night and work during the day. You ghosts in the City God Temple sleep during the day and still want to sleep at night?"

"It's time to get up and go to work!" Su Fu said in a loud voice.

Judge Wen was bewildered and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, venerable God, what does it mean to go to work?"

"Of course your work is to go out on patrol, eradicate evil spirits and monsters, and restore peace and order to Guobei County. Could it be that you all stay in the City God Temple day and night and do nothing?" Su Su's tone gradually became dangerous.

Judge Wen understood what Su Shu meant by going to work, and explained: "On the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month, when the incense is at its peak, the City God has extra power for us to exorcise evil spirits and subdue monsters. Otherwise, with our bodies as ghosts, how can we be a match for those evil spirits?"

Li Dingyuan, the City God of Guobei County, only works on the first and fifteenth day of every month. He really lives up to Su Fu's evaluation.

I made another note in the little notebook in my heart.

Su Su's eyes swept over the dozens of evil-looking yamen runners in the City God Temple, and his mind moved slightly, and he used some of his divine power to exorcise evil spirits.

With the flash of white light, the image of the ghost runners, whose total combat power did not exceed ten, changed drastically. They were all wearing armor, holding whistle sticks and hooks, and finally looked a bit like ghost soldiers.

"Divide into several teams to patrol the area around Guobei County, focusing on combating the evil ghosts that harm people. If you encounter evil ghosts entrenched in places like ghost markets, you must strike hard and wipe them out with all your strength."

"Also, select a few smarter ones to secretly keep watch near the inn in the city and pay attention to the movements of the woman in the blue and white silk skirt. Report any unusual movements immediately."

Compared to Li Dingyuan, who embezzled money and only paid two days' salary in the whole month, Su Su's generosity greatly boosted the morale of many evil yamen runners.

"Follow the orders of the City God!"

Wow, even the name was changed.

As for the City God Li Dingyuan who is still imprisoned?

Who is that?

I'm so unfamiliar!

Chapter 15 Testing

After giving the order, Su Su finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It really didn't dare to go and investigate the background of the woman in the blue and white silk skirt, for fear of causing trouble.

The tree demon grandma in Lanruo Temple alone is enough to give Su Su a headache. If he were to offend a woman in a blue and white silk skirt with an unknown background, his future life would be hopeless.

However, reality always backfires.

When the civil and military judges and dozens of yamen runners who could be called ghost soldiers went out on patrol, a soft and cold moonlight penetrated the threshold of the City God Temple, and a woman in a blue and white silk dress floated in.

The moonlight was shining, her skin was as white as cream, clear and bright, and her unmade white face was covered with a layer of silver gauze, as if a fairy had descended to earth. Her beauty was three times more beautiful than what she saw during the day.

However, this cold and elegant woman who looked like a fairy from heaven actually ran into the City God Temple with a dazed look on her face, covering her face and crying, "Wuwuwu... City God, my parents died early and entrusted me to my aunt for adoption. But my adoptive mother loves money and treats me like a rare treasure. She wants to marry me to the Taiyuan noble family Zong in exchange for a lifetime of wealth and honor. This is really hard for me to obey."

"After thinking it over... the only option is to flee far away... Woo woo woo... there is no place for me to stay in this vast world. I hope the City God will agree and let me stay in this temple for a few days."

The woman in the blue and white silk skirt cried and begged.

Ok?

If you hadn't followed me to the City God Temple right after I came back, I would have believed your lies.

Su Su racked his brains but couldn't figure out why the woman in the blue and white silk skirt suddenly set her sights on him. Just as he was about to pretend he didn't hear anything, the woman in the blue and white silk skirt had already picked up the spiritual hexagram under the altar and threw it out.

Two snaps.

One yin and one yang, that's the winning cup.

It means that God has agreed to this matter.

Seeing this, the woman in the blue and white silk dress showed joy on her face: "Thank you very much for the approval of the City God Spirit. I will tie a grass knot and bring a ring in the future to repay the City God Spirit for taking me in."
