Chapter 2: City God Temple!
"Wang Bantou, I will continue to stay in the county for a while. If there is any news about the thief during this period, I hope Wang Bantou will inform you." Lin Ze said with a hand. Although he knew that this was unlikely, Lin Ze still held on to the slightest hope. hope. After all, once he completes this task, he will be able to obtain several times the training resources he invested.
"As it should be." Wang Long also bowed his hand.
………………
The group of people set out to return to the county town. Since Shen Zhui was injured, the rest of the Wubanfang hurried back to the city at a nearby town post station. Wang Long, on the other hand, asked for a carriage to drive with Shen Zhui.
When Shen Zhui opened his eyes from the carriage, his injuries were mostly healed.
"Thank you, squad leader, for saving your life." Shen Zhui was about to salute. This was the second time Wang Long had saved him.
"You are injured, so there is no need to be polite." Wang Long waved his hand. "What's more, it wasn't me who saved you, but the county magistrate."
"Lord County Lord?" Shen Zhui was confused.
"Look at Yuan Mizhu in your arms."
Shen Zhui quickly touched it and found that the Yuan Mizhu was originally the size of an egg, but at this moment, it shrunk by more than half, and was only about the same size as a large pearl.
"The county magistrate mobilized the power of the temple to attach to the Yuan Mizhu to help you block Li Zhong's attack, and then guided the spiritual energy of Yuan Mizhu to heal you, otherwise you wouldn't have recovered so quickly. .”
"It turns out to be the county magistrate." Shen Zhui thought to himself. "I was wondering why He Tong's sword suddenly missed the target. After resisting the attacks of two innate warriors, I felt an invisible force helping me."
Although he had reached the perfect state of unity between man and nature, he was not confident that with this first sword technique, he could block the full blows of two consecutive innate masters.
Shen Zhui immediately got into the carriage and bowed in the direction of the county government office.
Wang Long explained everything that happened next to Shen Zhui.
"Then He Tong's wife and children were captured by the Li family and used as hostages. No wonder..." Shen Zhui was also a little sad.
He had previously used the system's innate ability to see He Tong's sin level.
But nothing was found. It was obvious that He Tong had been bribed not long ago and had not done anything evil, so he had not discovered it.
The system's sin value determination ability also has limitations.
If there is a person who has never done anything illegal, or a person who has been released from prison and has paid the price for his crime, the crime value on such a person's head will be cleared and recalculated.
It is impossible to guard against a surprise attack on you.
He Tong's blow could be regarded as a fatal blow.
If the county magistrate hadn't left some precautions beforehand, Shen Zhui might have really died.
Even if Wang Lung helped him avenge him and lost his life afterwards, it would be meaningless to Shen Zhui.
However, Wang Long was able to kill the innate warrior and seriously injure another one, which really surprised Shen Zhui.
………………
The carriage stopped, but it was not at the county government office, but at another place.
City God Temple.
"Team leader, what is this?" Shen Zhui opened the curtain and took a look, suddenly confused.
"Shen Zhui, since you have reached the ninth level of the day after tomorrow, I should have brought you here long ago, but before I could, something bad happened."
Wang Long chuckled and said: "After this battle, you must be wondering why I can instantly kill the innate masters, and why my martial arts squad only has about two hundred people, but I can suppress many masters from big and small families in Heyuan County..."
"Please ask the class leader to clarify your doubts." Shen Zhui listened obediently. He was indeed a little confused.
It stands to reason...
In this Heyuan County, there are at least thirty or forty innate masters from various families, big and small.
There are at least a thousand warriors the day after tomorrow!
There is also the blessing of the ancestors of the Yin God, who can conceal the secrets of heaven, shield the exploration of gods and Taoism, and cover up crimes.
So how could the county magistrate manage all the wealthy clans except the two major families to be submissive within three years? Even the two major families that had been arrogant in Heyuan County for decades did not dare to compete head-on?
"Follow me." Wang Long got out of the car first and led the way.
Shen Zhui followed closely.
This was not Shen Zhui's first visit to the City God's Temple.
On the contrary, his adoptive father Shen Shan often liked to come to the Chenghuang Temple to worship the gods. He also accompanied his adoptive father many times.
The City God's Temple in this life is not much different from the temples that Shen Zhui saw in his previous life. Even in terms of decoration, it is not as colorful as in the previous life, but it has a touch of simple charm.
The Chenghuang Temple is not big, with a total of seven halls dedicated to the gods.
Shen Zhui followed Wang Long into one of the temples. He saw that the main hall enshrined a seven or eight-meter-tall statue of the god. It was majestic and solemn, surrounded by colorful ribbons. He held a long knife in his right hand and a mace in his left hand. He raised one knee and looked like a Fighting stance.
At this time, there were many people offering incense and worship in the City God's Temple. Shen Zhui followed Wang Long to offer incense and then came to a spacious and tall house behind the temple.
This house is like a small temple. The main seat is an old man wearing a Confucian shirt, and there is a tablet underneath.
There are six statues of gods on both sides with teeth and claws. One of them is the sword-wielding statue that Shen Zhui saw just now.
Among these seven statues, except for the old man in Confucian shirt who is on the main seat, who is slightly taller, most of the rest are as tall as others.
Shen Zhui looked at them intently and found that each of these statues was lifelike, especially the pairs of eyes, which were so vividly painted that it seemed as if a faint light shone through and penetrated directly into the soul.
"Eight hundred years ago, the Emperor of Zhou established the empire, abolished obscene rituals, enthroned gods, and erected temples all over the world."
"To observe the good and evil of the people and bring disaster and blessing to them, so that Youming's actions will not be spared."
After Wang Long bowed in all directions one by one, he slowly spoke.
"Chenghuang temples all over the world are divided into four categories: king, duke, marquis and uncle. They correspond to the capital, prefecture, state and county respectively."
"Joining the city god makes people know how to be fearful. If people are fearful, they will not dare to act rashly."
Wang Long spoke every word in a low and solemn voice. Shen Zhui straightened up subconsciously, not daring to be presumptuous.
"Heyuan County, under the jurisdiction of Liangzhou, enshrines uncle-level gods. The statue on the main throne is the Heyuan uncle who founded the Zhou Dynasty and made outstanding achievements."
"The six on the left and right, respectively, are the four generals Gan, Liu, Fan and Xie. They followed Heyuan Bo to fight in all directions during his lifetime, and were canonized after his death. They are in charge of the four departments of rapid reporting, inspection, rewarding good and punishing evil."
"There are also two gods who travel day and night, the chief officer Zenglu and the two ministers Zhushou."
"Heyuan Bo, who is the chief, is in charge of the Yin and Yang Division."
Shen Zhui looked up and sure enough, after careful identification, he found that each statue held something different and had different expressions.
Some hold command flags and are dusty.
Some are holding mirrors and their eyes are like knives.
Some of them had swords and guns in their hands and were full of murderous intent.
Some lucky peaches were presented with smiles.
There are also hands folded together, and gold and silver in the arms...
"There are only seven divisions in the Earl City God's Temple. There are eight divisions in the Marquis Temple, sixteen divisions in the Duke Temple, and twenty-four divisions in the Wangjue Temple."
Shen Zhui suddenly realized why in this life, once the case was confirmed by the temple, the interrogation process was skipped and went directly to the judgment stage.
Because this process has long been confirmed by the gods.
And once the verdict is confirmed by the temple, no one will be dissatisfied.
People may have selfish motives, but these Yin gods canonized by the emperor follow the laws and standards established by the emperor, and there is absolutely no possibility of injustice.
"Every city is based on the gods and casts a supreme magic circle. Unless there is an attack by a being that exceeds the strength of the orthodox gods, the officials assigned by the imperial court are absolutely safe in the city."
After a pause, Wang Long continued: "The county government's military force, such as the third class of government officials, does not belong to the official level, so it still relies on its own strength."
"But as long as they get the seal from the county, the members of the Wubanfang can borrow the power of the temple to greatly increase their strength!"
"Through the link of Taoist orders, you can gain a trace of divine power. This is to invite the divine beings!"
"Just like when I was outside the city earlier, I invited the gods twice. With the blessing of divine power, my strength increased several times! My high-level Xiantian realm strength can even kill a Spirit Bridge realm warrior!"
