No matter how big or small a city is, the most prosperous places are usually near temples.
There is also a simple economic theory here. As long as we are human, we will always encounter some difficulties, and praying to God and Buddha can be said to be the simplest and most useless way to solve the problem.
A fluke mentality, thinking that there is something in there that can help me get through the difficulties without any trouble.
It’s nothing more than a matter of kowtowing several times with a stick of incense.
This is true in a world where there are no gods and Buddhas, let alone this world where true gods sit.
The City God's Temple in Cizhou is quite grand. After all, this person is theoretically the City God of a state. His position can be said to be just below that of the Capital City God of Jiankang. In terms of Shinto, he can be regarded as a feudal official on the pastoral side.
However, Su Che knew that the current Cizhou City God's Temple was just a facade. In fact, there was no real god inside.
Gods are connected to the world and people's hearts. Nowadays, Daliang's virtue is no longer a day or two. The Zhoucheng God who was in charge of Cizhou disappeared decades ago. Since then, no one has been able to regain the position of Zhoucheng God.
Ghost cultivators like Madam Xue who are interested in Shinto are all eyeing the position of Canglang Water God, so they know how dangerous the position of the city god in this state is.
There is really great resentment among the people, and climbing up hastily will definitely lead to self-destruction.
However, although there is no true god in the Cizhou City God Temple, there are Tiqi men and horses on duty every day. They are afraid that some evil spirits will take advantage of the unoccupied position of the City God to cause trouble here and harm the people.
Of course, these have nothing to do with the devout people. The Cizhou City God Temple is also full of incense and the business at the door is booming.
Su Che feels that even if you tell the world and clearly tell the people that there is no true god in the Cizhou City God Temple, it will not affect the prosperity of this place.
Firstly, the Liang court no longer has much credibility, and secondly, there may be more people with the intention of burning the cold stove.
What if the official announcement is wrong and there is really a plan to build Kangzhou City God? Wouldn’t that make a lot of money in one fell swoop?
Such is the human heart.
When Su Che walked into the City God's Temple, Tiqi, who had been watching here for a long time, came up to pay his respects.
"For a humble position, please refer to the punishment."
The Tiqi who is responsible for guarding this place has a short stature, a very upright face, and a seventh-grade cultivation level. He can be regarded as having passed the realm of the mundane and has stepped on the edge of fake cultivation.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Suche said something.
"I don't dare to do this in a humble position."
"The brothers who are changing shifts tonight have all rested. I have some things to deal with here."
"Yes, Li Xing, then I will take the people back now."
"There's no need to be in such a hurry. We can wait until sunset before leaving."
Suche patted his shoulder gently.
"Do it with care."
"I humble my position and take orders."
Na Tiqi agreed, and Su Che left the City God's Temple in Cizhou.
The little fox always gathers in important places like this, so why not go to the City God’s Temple in Jiankang? Rumor has it that Du Chenghuang is comparable to Immortal Changsheng.
There is an aura of peace in Cizhou City today.
Maybe someday we can find a suitable candidate and install a few city gods.
Su Che looked at the pedestrians and shops on the streets of Cizhou. The world and the people's hearts have sunk so much. This world of gods is already like this. What will the ancient heaven be like when Zhongyuan wants to revive it?
Young Master Su kept walking all the way, but when he reached a melon and fruit stall, he asked for a pack of freshly harvested tangerines.
The direction he was going was Wang Jian's residence in Cizhou City.
Before we arrived at Langya Wang's annex in Cizhou, the streets had already been cleared. There were Wang's private soldiers wearing black armor standing everywhere. They were all holding good horses beside them, and quivers and bow boxes could be seen on the saddles. , the fiery red parasites are as bright as flames.
Several sharp-eyed black armor knights saw Suche, and they all carefully took a few steps back, not daring to step forward to provoke him.
They have all seen the prestige of Mr. Su San, and they know well that it is better not to have a conflict with him in this three-acre land of Cizhou.
Those who were quick-thinking and quick-footed rushed directly to meet him, and those who were quick-footed ran directly inside, rushing to notify Wang Jian.
"Young man, please see Master Li Xing."
"Moving?"
Suche's eyes swept over the knight's face, which showed a trace of shame.
The enemy is facing a formidable enemy. The private soldiers of the Langya Wang family are apparently the strongest troops in Cizhou City. Now that the enemy's front is still far away, they are about to flee.
Everyone will feel a little ashamed.
"Hahaha, I asked you why there were two magpies chirping at the door early in the morning. It turned out to be Brother Su. But it was my younger brother who didn't entertain me well..."
Wang Jian's voice was cheerful and free, as if the news from Jiankang made him feel like he was being pardoned. Indeed, this Wang Changshi had no talents to begin with, so it was really difficult for him to stay in Cizhou.
"I heard you were leaving, so I went to buy you some oranges."
Suche handed the bag of oranges to Wang Jian and looked at him with suspicion written on his face.
Of course, these oranges are just ordinary oranges, and Mr. Su doesn't want to get a bargain by saying, "Don't move around here, I'll buy some oranges."
I simply wanted to meet Wang Jian.
"Ah, feeling enough creates emotion, feeling enough creates emotion."
Wang Jian carefully took the orange handed over by Suche with both hands.
"How are you, Madam-in-law?"
Wang Jian's hand holding the orange just stayed there.
"Ah, Brother Su, this is..."
"There are some things that God knows and I know." Su Che smiled and said, "Nothing else, just an old friend, here to see me off."
"But I haven't seen my wife yet. Please help me, Brother Su, to pay more attention..."
"I will remember the trip to the East China Sea."
Su Che gently patted Wang Jian's shoulder. Although he didn't use any magic power, he still patted the bones of this disciple of the Langya Wang family.
"This kind of kindness must be repaid in the future."
"There must be some misunderstanding here..."
"Misunderstanding? What is a misunderstanding?"
Suche lowered his head forward and whispered in Wang Jian's ear.
"If you want to take the Prince of Wuling County and I, Mr. Su, they are just disappearing. But for colluding with the East China Sea Monster Clan, I don't know if you are brave or if the Wang and Xie families just let it go and live a good life and can't think of it themselves? "
Wang Jian's face turned as red as a pig's liver and he took a few steps back, his eyes trembling and he didn't dare to look at Suche.
The fraud came out, and it turned out to be the East China Sea Monster Clan.
Su Che looked at Wang Jian's performance at this moment and finally felt 100% sure.
Mrs. Xie has connections with the East China Sea Monster Clan, and Wang Jian was fully aware of the incident.
It's really a waste of time and effort.
Mrs. Xie is such a shrewd person, how could she bring in Wang Jian's embroidered pillow?
There is a way to death.
"The mountains are high and the rivers are long. Brother Wang takes this trip very seriously. We will have plenty of time to talk about the past."
Suche said, cupping his hands and walking away swaggeringly.
