Talk about the world of mortals in detail

In the evening, Yi Shuyuan was reading a book and eating a few steamed buns with water at the same time. What he was reading was not the book sent by the mountain god, but the book in his hand called "Precious Foods and Strange Records". He was like this now and in his previous life. Watching food videos and eating instant noodles cannot be said to be exactly the same, but they are similar.

After finishing the three steamed buns on the table, Yi Shuyuan couldn't help but put down the book and sighed softly.

"Hey, just bear with me for two more days."

Yi Shuyuan murmured to himself to comfort himself that he would be able to officially receive his salary if he endured it for two more days. He could just eat whatever he wanted in these two days to deal with it.

The money Yi Shuyuan gave Yi Baokang before has almost been used up, mainly because he bought some daily necessities and used a lot of it, so that now he is really short of money.

Yuanjiang County Government settled its accounts after the 20th of every month, and it only took two days. Yi Shuyuan didn't want to borrow money or advance wages, so he just waited for the day when his salary would be paid.

The progress of the work was indeed not as fast as expected. Yi Shuyuan felt that he must not be satisfied with the quota, but after all, his work was based on an average monthly salary based on a tentative schedule, and it should not be too little. In the end, no matter what Whether it lasts longer or shorter, the total amount of money will not change.

"It has to be at least three passes, right?"

Yi Shuyuan couldn't help but smile. If he wasn't a temporary worker, he would have earned more than forty taels a year with a full salary, and he actually had a lot of holidays. It seemed like he had one day off every ten days, but in fact, it was the Spring Festival, Cold Food, Shangyuan, Zhongyuan, etc. There are holidays for the Dragon Boat Festival, various special seasonal festivals and even the emperor's birthday.

Looking at it this way, Yi Shuyuan felt that if he had not aspired to the world of mortals and entered the path of spiritual practice, his current job would indeed be pretty good.

While he was thinking so boringly, Yi Shuyuan suddenly felt a cold air coming from far away, which surprised him slightly.

It's definitely not a cold wind, is it a ghost or some evil force? There is also a hint of sandalwood scent that is like a ghost!

The county government office was relatively quiet now, and Yi Shuyuan's senses were a little sharper. He felt the presence of ghosts and gods earlier than during the day. He stood up and walked to the door, opened the door and looked in the direction he felt.

At this moment, Sun Heng, the Japanese patrol envoy whom he had met at noon, appeared at the end of the corridor and saw Yi Shuyuan at the door of the library looking at him.

Sun Heng was stunned, realizing that the other party had known that he was coming at this moment, so he quickly approached him and bowed respectfully.

"Sun Heng, the Japanese patrol envoy under the jurisdiction of the City God, has met Mr. Yi!"

Yi Shuyuan returned the gift and immediately asked about the result of his request.

"Sun Rixun, has the Lord Cheng Huang responded?"

Hearing Yi Shuyuan's expectant voice, Sun Heng nodded and replied.

"Sir, you are right. Master Cheng Huang ordered me to tell you that I will invite you to have a talk at the Temple of the City God tomorrow after the temple opens at Mao. What do you think, sir?"

If Yi Shuyuan had any opinions, of course he agreed.

"That's very good. Please inform Lord Chenghuang that Yi will definitely go to the Chenghuang Temple tomorrow at Mao time. Thank you Sun Rixun for conveying it on your behalf!"

"You're welcome, sir! If there's nothing else, I'll be resigning!"

"Okay, I won't give it away anymore!"

Sun Heng felt that there was no sense of oppression when talking to Yi Shuyuan, and he felt that Yi Shuyuan was fresh and natural around him. He couldn't help but think of the serious look of Lord Cheng Huang, and felt that Lord Cheng Huang was too nervous.

When the Japanese Inspector said goodbye to Yi Shuyuan, in front of the small courtyard door on the other side of the corridor, a figure who was passing by stopped. He saw Yi Shuyuan standing in front of the door, looking like he was talking to someone, and couldn't help but His brows were furrowed.

What is Mr. Yi doing? However, seeing Yi Shuyuan looking over with a smile, the figure also greeted him with a smile. However, at this time, Yin Shi passed by and brought up a gust of wind, which made Chu Hang suddenly feel cold.

"Brother Chu comes to see Mr. Wu again?"

"Uh, yeah!"

"Well, the adults should be at the same place. You can go on your own."

After Yi Shuyuan finished speaking, he returned to the library. When Chu Hang walked past the library, he looked inside and saw that Yi Shuyuan was writing at his desk.

Chu Hang looked at it and left, but it was difficult to relax his brows. There had been rumors in the county government that ordinary ghosts could not enter the county government, so it was probably just his illusion.

But what if it’s unusual?

"hiss"

Chu Hang quickly shook his body and left quickly, but he still couldn't help but look back at the direction of the library. It didn't seem right, and it wasn't even dark yet. So he was thinking too much?

Although he comforted himself in his heart, Chu Hang's thoughts did not stop.

Because of his not-so-good experiences as a child, Chu Hang was used to all kinds of deceit and deceit, or so-called experts who boasted about their superficial abilities. Instead, he met Yi Shuyuan in Yuanjiang County, which is half his hometown, and he helped the wronged soul to file a complaint. Later, they also experienced the incident in the tea shed together, which made him feel more and more mysterious about him.

A certain expectation that had been buried for a long time, which could not be solved when he was a child, seemed to be budding in Chu Hang's heart.

——

Tonight, Yi Shuyuan did not stay up late anymore, but went back to his single dormitory early to lie down. But naturally, he did not just sleep, but began to practice with his own body again.

You definitely shouldn't mess around with things like cultivation, but Yi Shuyuan has a clear idea. The good thing is that he can check himself if he feels something is wrong, and now it's just a matter of breathing in the vitality of heaven and earth.

With the reminder of the previous day's tour, Yi Shuyuan's practice tonight was much lighter, but also more meticulous. He lay on the bed and slept leisurely, breathing in the faint spiritual energy slowly.

In Yi Shuyuan's feeling, it was as if his body was lying outside, with a light breeze blowing around him, making every pore of him feel more comfortable. It was even better as if the moonlight fell directly through the roof and fell directly on his body. , making the whole body feel bright even in sleep.

When the sky got brighter, Yi Shuyuan woke up naturally, walked out of the house and looked to the east outside the courtyard wall.

The sun was rising, making Yi Shuyuan's face flush red. The vague sun fire spread to the sky and the earth with the sunlight. It was no wonder that the ghosts and spirits were difficult to show up during the day.

It was almost time. Yi Shuyuan washed up a little, then left the county government office and headed to the Chenghuang Temple. It didn't take long for him to reach the street outside the temple.

At this moment, the sun is rising, and there are not many people on the street. However, many vendors have already begun to prepare in advance, and all the shops have opened their doors. However, they have not started shouting yet, making the streets seem a bit deserted.

Yi Shuyuan walked alone on the street, also paying attention to some bun shops and noodle restaurants, but he still had to meet the city god, so he kept walking.

Since it is not a special day and there is no need to compete for the first incense, there are naturally not many pilgrims near the Chenghuang Temple early in the morning, but the incense vendors have already been in place.

Seeing Yi Shuyuan approaching, a diligent vendor immediately greeted him.

"Hey, young master, are you here to pay homage to the City God? I see that you haven't prepared any incense sticks. Do you want to buy them from me? Three sticks of incense only cost two cents!"

"Thank you, no!"

Yi Shuyuan refused with a smile and walked straight to the temple gate.

In a private room in the Zuibin Building opposite the Chenghuang Temple, Chu Hang wiped his face with a hot cotton towel brought by the waiter. There were two or three people lying on the tables and soft couches on one side. They were almost drinking and talking and listening to music. I spent the whole night composing poetry.

Although Tongxin Building is good, it is too close to the county government and it is easy to be caught by your uncle. If you want to have fun all night, Zuibin Building, one of the two floors, is the best choice.

When he was feeling more energetic, Chu Hang, who had put down his cotton towel, accidentally looked at the window, and then was slightly startled to see Yi Shuyuan coming to the City God's Temple so early in the morning.

Maybe it was because Chu Hang was more concerned about what happened yesterday. He hesitated for a moment, and after looking at his sleeping friends, he went downstairs by accident.

Out of sight of ordinary people, two Yin servants were already waiting in front of the temple gate. Seeing Yi Shuyuan coming, Sun Heng and another Ri Xuan immediately stepped forward a few steps to bow.

"Mr. Yi, Lord Chenghuang has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come with us!"

Yi Shuyuan cupped his hands and said nothing. He followed the two Japanese wandering gods into the temple, passed through the outer hall, crossed the atrium and came to the inner courtyard. At this moment, the temple door had just opened, and it was deserted inside. There were no pilgrims until the main hall.

"Mr. Yi please!"

Sun Heng took the first step and entered the main hall, followed closely by Yi Shuyuan. Unexpectedly, when he stepped in, the light around him instantly became darker.

Still at the same vendor, Chu Hang bought three sticks of incense while looking in the direction of Yi Shuyuan.

After Yi Shuyuan entered the main hall of the City God's Temple, Chu Hang had also walked into the temple carefully, but as if out of nowhere, when he looked in the direction of the City God's Temple, there seemed to be no one inside, which made him a little uneasy. .

"I'm here to worship God, I'm here to worship God!"

Muttering these words and holding three sticks of incense, Chu Hang hesitated and walked into the City God's Hall pretending to be generous. He pretended to bow first, but he didn't see Yi Shuyuan in his peripheral vision, so he simply walked around inside again. I circled around, but still couldn't find Yi Shuyuan.

"It's weird, I obviously saw him coming in."

Chu Hang, who returned to the main hall door, muttered to himself and frowned, then subconsciously glanced at the statue of the City God, and his heart skipped a beat.

If it were other people who entered the temple and disappeared, Chu Hang would have thought more about the possible misunderstanding. However, after all, Yi Shuyuan was a strange person in the county government, and he was clearly paying more attention to that direction just now. In this case, Chu Hang had to let Chu Hang Over association.
