Chapter 128
Seeing that Liantu's expression suddenly became weird, Wei Lan, who was listening beside him, also pricked up his ears.
"Are you city gods so approachable?!" Lian Tu couldn't believe it.
Wei Lan was also a little surprised when he heard the word Cheng Huang.
[I said this is just a wisp of my consciousness! !I am not serving you myself. 】The system said angrily. [Otherwise, how could there be so much mana to upgrade your hotel and open a ghost market for you, isn’t it my city god, can other ghosts do it? ! 】
"Then you follow me to see so many things that violate laws and regulations, and you don't care about it! You keep asking me to report!" Liantu said.
[I said that my spiritual sense can only be used to upgrade hotels and open ghost markets, and everything else must follow the rules and regulations! !There are so many shelter agents under me, everyone can say what they want to say to my body, my head is not noisy every day!Besides, there are special people in charge of special affairs, and I, the city god, should do everything. What are the judges and underworld servants doing! ] After the system revealed its identity, it became extremely rude.
"You can't be so rigid, some things need to be done specially! For example, today's matter, if the local city god neglected his duties, as his colleague, what would you do?"
Lian Tu said.
[Absolutely impossible!Our city gods have been cultivated for countless years, with an extremely firm will and an extremely upright disposition.How could such a thing be done? ! 】The system said.
"Do you dare to say that everyone in your City God is a saint?" Lian Tu asked back. "Do you dare to say that you have handled so many avoid | fire maps and never peeked at them?!"
【…】
【Just say what you want from me?Hearing that I am the city god and still being so arrogant, you are the first one I met. 】The system said.
【I'm going to see the local city god, you have to protect my safety. 】
[Okay, okay, I'll share a little more strength and make sure you can get out of here. 】The system said.
"If you find something wrong with the City God here, report it to your superior immediately and deal with it immediately!" Lian Tu said.
[Make it look real, okay, I promise you. 】The system said lazily, obviously because it doesn't believe that Chenghuang will have any problems.
Lian Tu was still not at ease after getting the guarantee from the system. He searched the online ghost market for a long time, and found a bunch of life-saving and defensive things.It was only then that I officially walked in the direction of the local Town God's Temple.
Of course, unlike the City God's Temple in Yangjian, if you want to see the real City God, Liantu has to walk with the Yin Yang Order.
Walking into the underworld with a Yin Yang Ling is completely different from driving a car.
When driving, the surrounding scenery changes so quickly that it is almost impossible to see clearly.But if you just walk slowly, you can see that the surrounding scenery is like the paint that has been washed by water, slowly fading, and the originally bright sky also darkens. Without the sun and moon, the originally bustling streets have become deserted. The fresh-looking people turned into vague and floating phantoms, and the atmosphere of the dark wedding in the surrounding house was the same as the last time, full of yin.
The road leading to the Town God's Temple is wide, and there are white paper lanterns hanging around it like street lamps. You can see the brightly lit building with carved beams and painted buildings from a distance.
Lian Tu and Wei Lan walked straight along the main road, and soon came to the large carved wooden door in front of the building.
There are two figures standing at the door here, wearing high hats on their heads and holding killing power sticks in their hands. It is obvious that it is an accident.
Seeing Lian Tu and Wei Lan, the two men looked cold and lifeless, without You Cui's vitality at all.
"This is the City God's Mansion. Idlers are not allowed to enter. If there is nothing to do, leave."
Lian Tu cupped his hands at the two of them.
"Brothers, I am Lian Tu, the agent of the shelter. I have something to report to the city god here. Can you inform us?"
At first, I thought that there would be some trouble in this suspicious place, but after hearing what Liantu said, the two servants turned around and went in to report, looking very talkative.
... Am I wrong?
Lian Tu glanced at Wei Lan and rubbed his hands nervously.
After a while, the messenger who went in came out and waved to Liantu.
"Master Chenghuang is waiting for you in the hall."
Lian Tu was a little scared, but Wei Lan held his hand and led him into the high threshold.
This official office is not particularly big, and after only a few dozen steps from the front door, you can see the front hall.
There is also a yin guard standing at the door here, as well as Wuchang holding a mourning stick, and a bull-headed horse-face holding a chain.
Looking into the hall, I saw two rows of lampstands filled with white candles inside, illuminating the brightly lit hall, a bearded man wearing an official cap sitting behind a desk, with several stacks of official documents beside him, Writing quickly, and at the same time explaining some work from time to time, there is a laptop on the small table next to it, and a younger male ghost in a suit sits behind and keeps typing, as if he is his secretary.
……
"My lord, Lian Tu, the agent, has arrived!" A errand walked in and said.
The man in the official hat, probably Chenghuang, raised his head to look at Liantu with a calm expression.
"What do you want to report to the officer?"
When Lian Tu entered this room, he felt that it was not the dragon's pond and tiger's den as he thought, but an antique office.But the weirdness of Yangjian in this place still made him pay attention, and he didn't relax too much.
"I just came here to play, and found that there are no lonely ghosts in this city. I feel abnormal. I came here to ask."
"The agent in this city has been in business for many years and has outstanding performance. The lonely souls and wild ghosts have been scooped up long ago, so don't be surprised." Chenghuang said, and wrote another official document.
"There must be some ghosts who don't want to be restrained..." Liantu asked tentatively.
"There will be no ghosts who want nothing, they just know the way of human hearts and ghosts." Chenghuang glanced at Liantu. "Looking at your merits and virtues, you have done well on weekdays. If you have nothing else to do, go down and keep working hard. I will give you a good baby after death."
"The person next to you has suffered a lot of evil in the past half life, and now he has made meritorious deeds with you. It is his good fortune. But I am the most evil and sinful person in my life. It's hard to let go, this palace doesn't welcome him, let's leave quickly."
……
"I have another question." Liantu didn't move.
"Ok?"
Chenghuang put down his pen, and looked at Liantu with fiery eyes.
"The local shelters are so outstanding, can you tell me what industries they have? I want to learn about them." Liantu said.
"The agent of the shelter here doesn't want to appear in front of people, you can't see him." Chenghuang seemed to have lost his patience at this time, stopped looking at the pictures, and began to pick up a pen and continue to write official documents.
Seeing Yincha and Wuchang gathered around as if to see off the guests, Lian Tu had no choice but to back out with Wei Lan.
After leaving the door, System 334 spoke in a disdainful tone.
[Hey, this old antique, after so many years, still uses the same old style.My office has long since lost those red tapes, and the City God Hall in the office building is spacious and bright.Basically realize paperless office. 】
"Why didn't you say something for us just now?" Liantu asked.
[Everyone manages different areas, and they are all colleagues at the same level. It's not easy for me to meddle in other people's business.Besides, I saw it just now, is it normal?What I said is that you are delusional.Can ordinary people be city gods?Those are ghosts who were good people in life and upright in death. ] System 334 boasted.
Lian Tu relayed the words of the system to Wei Lan, but Wei Lan had a different opinion.
"I think there is something wrong. Lian Tu said that he wanted to see the shelter in this place, but the city god said that the agent didn't like to appear in front of people. Doesn't this mean that there is only one agent in the huge Shanghai stock market. The Shanghai stock market and Hucheng are different. Similarly, the economy is developed, one of the best in the country, even if there are few local agents, do you think agents from other regions will not set up a branch of the shelter because of the many opportunities to make money in this place?" Wei Lan said.
System 334 was also stunned.
Yes, the Shanghai stock market is so developed, and money is so valued in the world now, it stands to reason that no agent will come.
[Wait for me to connect to Ontology to query the database information.I don't know the other agents under the City God. I also have so many agents under me. Some of them should have been to the Shanghai stock market. ] System 334 disappeared after saying such a sentence.
Even Tu saw that the underworld was not a place to talk, and always felt panicked, so he quickly put away the Yin-Yang order, took Wei Lan to Yangshi, and found a cafe with a good environment to sit down.
Put your drink on the table and the system comes back.
[According to my inquiry... 431 agents under my name tried to open a branch shelter in Shanghai, but...]
"What's wrong?" Liantu asked curiously.
[All died. 】
Lian Tu was shocked.
"You are too irresponsible, so many agents died?"
[This statement is wrong!There are tens of thousands of agents under my command, ranging in age from eighteen to eighty. How can I remember who died at the end of their lives and who died accidentally? 】
"Didn't the systems on them report to Ontology?" Lian Tu asked.
[I checked the recovery system information on these people. On the surface, they all died in accidents and did not attract the attention of the system.Even these agents themselves felt that they were unlucky and encountered an accident, and did not appeal.It wasn't the things that got paid attention to. 】The system has a heavy tone. 【Until you said it now, I didn’t discover the commonality of their deaths. 】
After listening to Lian Tu and telling himself the information from the system, Wei Lan didn't seem surprised at all.
"So, there is indeed a problem with the city god here, and it is likely that he has colluded with the local agent?"
"334, what else do you have to say now, hurry up and report to your superiors! There must be something wrong with the town god here." Lian Tu also echoed.
[This...] The system has probably never encountered such a thing before, and after struggling for a long time, it finally said a good word.
Lian Tu thought that the response would come soon, but he didn't expect the system to make a sound soon.Still flustered.
[Go back... I can't go back. 】
"what?"
[Spiritual consciousness is blocked, can't go back to the main body, can't contact, you can understand that I've been disconnected...] System 334 said this in disbelief, and quickly reminded Lian Tu. [Only the local city god can do this, he may find that you suspect him, be careful...]
