The badger demon continued: "Fu Hongmei was sent by me to work in the demon market. Normally, she patrols the surroundings with other monsters, and prevents mortals from entering, or guides people who mistakenly enter the demon market to leave this place."
Chen Changsheng nodded, and did not ask Fu Hongmei any more about it, but continued: "The world has not been peaceful these years. King Jin traveled around, met many monks and monsters, and knew a lot of things. He can I have come to trouble you before.”
The badger demon replied: "Mr. Hui, the King of Jin did come to find me the year before last, wanting to recruit me into his tent or serve as a worshipper..."
"What benefits did he give?" Chen Changsheng asked.
The badger demon said: "He said that if he ascends the throne and becomes emperor, he can help me become a real city god by writing an edict."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng nodded and said, "It sounds good, but looking at you now, it seems that you have refused?"
The badger demon nodded and said: "To be honest, sir, although I am acting on behalf of Lord Chenghuang, only after you have actually sat in this position can you realize how difficult it is. Over the years, I have handled many things, big and small." There are no less than thousands of things, and I have just realized that it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil, and it is difficult to distinguish between right and wrong. As a city god, there are too many things to do."
He sighed and said, "I don't have the skills of the City God."
The badger demon raised his head, and then said: "Sometimes you really have to recognize yourself."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "But it's not as bad as you said. Isn't Donglinfang just as good these years? Now people from other places have settled here, and there are more and more people in the village. It's very lively. .”
The badger demon smiled helplessly and said: "Sir, I was wronged. Donglinfang almost became a monster house back then. Sir, you didn't blame me for this, so I had a chance to make amends. Otherwise, I don't know what Donglinfang would be today." What does it look like?”
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "There are rules in the human world, and there are rules in the mountains. The two cannot be confused. Humanity is protected by ghosts and gods, and monsters also need to find their own place to stay. Just like you are now It’s done, the demon market has developed now, isn’t it already in its embryonic form?”
The badger demon was stunned for a moment, vaguely guessing the meaning of his words, but he was not sure.
Chen Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Humanity is flourishing, luck is soaring, the spiritual energy of vegetation is rising, the energy of the sun and moon is shining, and more and more monsters have become wise and become spirits in the mountains."
"In the past few years, the government established immortal officials to control the monsters that breed in the mountains, so as to prevent monsters from doing evil and causing harm to the world. But so far, few immortal officials have stepped forward. The world is in chaos, and the mountains are in chaos. It’s also messy.”
Chen Changsheng raised his head and looked at him and said, "Do you think it's okay to continue like this?"
The badger demon opened his mouth, was speechless for a moment, and then quickly replied: "This is definitely not a good thing for humanity..."
He didn't dare to speak out, and he was even more afraid that Mr. Chen was testing him.
Chen Changsheng nodded and said: "Back then, Donglinfang almost became a monster place, but under your control, it never caused any trouble. Obviously you are also experienced in this. What Chen said may be You can also give it a try."
The badger demon's heart was burning, and his eyes changed.
"Yes, sir." The badger demon paused, calmed down and said, "Three hundred years have not come yet."
Chen Changsheng said: "Chen gives you this opportunity."
The badger demon was startled, but then he heard the change in his husband's voice and said: "However, you still need to solve the cause and effect you created."
After hearing this, the badger demon stopped for a long time, then knelt down and kowtowed.
Goodbye!
Three bows!
"Badger, speak up about your sins, accept the punishment, and settle the consequences."
Chen Changsheng said nothing.
Then he saw the badger demon walking out of the temple with a solemn expression.
That night.
This 'City God' who has blessed Donglinfang for more than ten years walked into the City God's Temple in Linfang.
The chains and soul whip were slapped on his body, and he didn't even utter a word.
.
.
It was already evening when Chen Changsheng looked at the desk.
He couldn't help but admire the badger demon's talent, impartiality in enforcing the law, and ability to distinguish right from wrong. If the badger demon were a mortal, he would definitely be a master of the sky.
Many of the cases even made Chen Changsheng find them wonderful.
He is a rare talent.
Chen Changsheng looked up and saw that Miss Yun was sitting on a chair in the temple, sleeping with her arms in her arms while Yu Hongjin was lying on Miss Yun's legs, sleeping very deeply.
He stood up and stepped forward, looking at the slightly older face and seeing the hair hanging down from the temples.
After being stunned for a moment, Chen Changsheng reached out and pushed the strand of hair back behind his ear.
Miss Yun opened her eyes, and the two of them looked at each other in the night.
Yunxiang, who was over fifty years old, suddenly blushed and lowered her head.
Chen Changsheng also retracted his hand belatedly.
Neither of them spoke a word, avoiding each other's gaze.
Such an awkward atmosphere was finally broken by Yu Hongjin.
"Well……"
Yu Hongjin woke up and rubbed his eyes.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw two people in front and behind him who looked strange.
Yu Hongjin frowned slightly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Ahem..." Chen Changsheng coughed lightly.
Miss Yun reached out and touched Yu Hongjin's hair and said, "It's okay."
Yu Hongjin didn't quite understand either, so he stood up and stretched.
Looking outside, he saw that it was already dark.
"It's already dark, and I actually slept for so long."
Yu Hongjin came back to her senses, lowered her head, and saw the sleeping cat again.
"Smelly cat! Get up soon! Don't sleep anymore!"
Lihua was woken up by it. When she opened her eyes, she was still a little confused and muttered: "Have you eaten?"
"Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat, why are you lazier than me." Yu Hongjin muttered.
Yunxiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, thinking that Yu Hongjin didn't know if she was scolding others or herself.
After everyone woke up, they found an inn to stay in the square.
When there was nothing to do at night, Chen Changsheng said: "I heard that there is a Yaozhong Market outside the square. Miss Yun, do you want to go for a walk?"
Before Yunxiang could speak, Yuhongjin and Lihua became excited.
"Demon Market?"
"Are there all monsters in there?"
"Market? What's for sale? Is there any wine?"
"Is there anything delicious?"
One fish, one cat, you say something to me, and the trouble never ends.
Yunxiang smiled and said after seeing this: "Then let's go and have a look. Yunxiang has never seen what the market in the demon city looks like."
"Why don't we go during the day?" Yu Hongjin asked.
Chen Changsheng said: "The demon market is different from the human market. It only gets lively at night."
"Ouch."
Yu Hongjin understood and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go."
She couldn't wait any longer.
She has never seen the monster market before, maybe there is good wine in it.
