Cai Quan has forgotten how long it has been since he felt so relaxed and at ease.
Although it was obviously not that long ago, compared to before, it really felt like a big fake.
Ever since I became the director of this shabby civil affairs bureau, I have become more and more anxious every day, and my hair has become more gray every day.
Especially after the disaster star appeared, I was so stressed that I couldn't breathe. Strange things seemed to pop up anytime and anywhere. I had to stare at the screen all the time. When something happened, I would instruct all departments to seal off the scene, solve the problem, and deal with the aftermath as soon as possible. Finishing and so on.
Fortunately, I finally got over it.
It is said that the disaster star went to Gaoliang Bureau to cause harm.
Thinking of Du Hao's stinky face, Cai Quan actually felt a sense of schadenfreude.
Oops sin sin.
Cai Quan was so relaxed that the people below him were naturally not tired.
Li Yaoguo and the others may even wonder if if this continues, the provincial capital branch will suspect that they are always fishing for money.
The problem is that there are really no tasks.
On this day, Cai Quan received a call from the provincial capital branch.
"Hello, Director Han, what are your orders?"
On the other end of the phone, Director Han said in a calm tone: "It's not a big deal, I just want to ask, the plot is coming soon. How are you preparing for the Chuchuan Bureau?"
"Conspiracy?!"
Cai Quan was so excited.
Damn, how could I forget this!
Quickly look at the calendar...there are only two days left, go ahead!
He quickly laughed to cover up his embarrassment: "Don't worry, Director Han, I promise there will be no mistakes!"
Who was Director Han? He immediately heard something strange and sneered: "Haha, you guy, if I didn't ask, I must have forgotten."
"No way, there must be no leakage." Cai Quan sneered.
What I was murmuring in my heart was that with that person in charge, even if he came up with something, the other party would not agree.
"most!"
Director Han said angrily: "Okay, let's not joke around. Anyway, you have to keep those two days safe for me no matter what! If something really goes wrong and you are held accountable, I won't be able to protect you!"
"Promise to complete the mission!"
Cai Quan looked serious.
Director Han added: "By the way, pay attention to the mysterious existence and see if there was any movement when you saw it."
Cai Quan: "..."
I'm afraid this is your real purpose?
But he said: "Okay, I understand."
…
put down the phone,
Cai Quan quickly notified everyone of the meeting, and the topic was naturally the preparation for the plot that Director Han had just conveyed.
The Guilty Festival, which is the fourteenth day of the seventh lunar month, is a festival in Guangdong, Guangxi and some Hakka areas. It is said that the Deception Gate is opened. In other areas, July 15th is mostly celebrated as the Hungry Ghost Festival.
There are many taboos on this day.
For example, you will get off work early, and the shops on the street will close early; you cannot go out at night; you cannot go up the mountain; you cannot pick up things on the roadside; you cannot hang your clothes outside; you cannot say the words "death" and "weird"; you cannot pat others on the shoulder. Because people have three fires to extinguish things that easily provoke unclean things...
In fact, the entire seventh month of the lunar calendar is a time when the creatures of the underworld are active, but the fourteenth and fifteenth days are particularly active.
When everyone arrived, Cai Quan began to say: "I just received a notice from my superiors, asking us to prepare for the conspiracy."
As soon as the words came out, everyone looked at each other.
"Yeah, it's going to be a trick soon!"
Maybe this period of time was too relaxing and everyone subconsciously forgot about it.
"If I don't remind you, you will forget about this."
Cai Quan sneered twice, not realizing anything was wrong, and then said: "Originally, this year will be more difficult than last year, but everyone knows that there is a great person hidden in Chuchuan. As long as nothing happens, there is a high probability that it will be better." safe and sound."
Recalling the situation last year, everyone, including Cai Quan, felt lingering fear.
At that time, the Civil Affairs Bureau was still weak and faced many strange things and was exhausted. Although it was successfully contained in the end, it also paid a heavy price.
Things should be better this year...right?
Thinking of that mysterious being who was so powerful that he could be called invincible, everyone couldn't help but fantasize.
Seeing this, Cai Quan sighed secretly and said seriously: "However, you still have to make preparations, and you can't place your hopes on others. The only one you can rely on at the critical moment is yourself.
Therefore, during this two-day holiday this year, in addition to notifying all public institutions and companies to get off work as early as possible and canceling overtime work, all comrades in the Civil Affairs Bureau, Public Security Bureau and other departments have taken time off during the day and are on duty at night to be on call at any time.
Of course, I also know that everyone is working hard. When the time comes, comrades from various departments who participate in the task will receive double the performance subsidy this month. How to arrange the specific work? A few captains will stay for a while, and the others will leave the meeting first. "
After everyone else had gone out, Cai Quan said with a serious expression: "The superiors also assigned a special task."
oh? !
Zhong Yun and others immediately sat upright.
"We are required to pay close attention to the movements of that mysterious existence!"
Cai Quan observed everyone's expressions and found that they all moved slightly. He immediately smiled and said: "Of course, I know that this request is a bit too much for everyone, so I just do my best. Lin Nan continues to be stationed in Haikang, Li Yaoguo, you go to Chengdu In Xinfeng Town of the county, Zhong Yun will stay in Chuchuan, and he will report if there is any situation, and forget about it if there is no situation, with the primary goal of maintaining normal order."
After hearing what he said, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
They would rather face the strangeness than the huge pressure brought by that mysterious existence.
A tiger is a tiger after all. Do you believe it when it says it doesn’t eat people?
…
"I didn't expect that it would be a trick in a blink of an eye."
Chen Jingle was also feeling emotional.
Orange County attaches as much importance to the Festival as it does to the Qingming Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival. Most young people will go home to celebrate the festival as long as their workplace is not far from home.
In rural areas and cities, chickens and ducks are killed to worship gods and ancestors, which is very grand.
The wide opening of the deceitful door is the first test for all the underworld gangsters under his command and the judge Zhong Cheng after he took office.
Whether the trick door can be opened or not is not something Chen Jingle can control. This is the law of heaven and earth.
All he can do is to maintain order as much as possible to avoid chaos. After all, not every trickster is so obedient.
At this moment, the game suddenly popped up a task prompt.
【City God’s Tour】
[It coincides with the Ghost Festival of the Zhongyuan Dynasty. At night, the gate of tricks is wide open, and the city god patrols at the right time, which can deter all kinds of ghosts and stabilize the surroundings. 】
【Do you accept the task? 】
The city god is on patrol?
Chen Jingle was stunned.
The first thing he thought of was the city god Fajia, who was similar to the wandering god.
But then he rejected it because it was the statue of the City God, not him. The system should be talking about his true form.
"Wouldn't this be too ostentatious?"
But if you think about it carefully, this is actually quite normal.
In the state of Yin Si City God, even if he passed by, ordinary people would not be able to see him, and at most they would notice something different. And the Yin soldiers are accompanying them, and the Yin soldiers are taking advantage of them, which is pretty cool when you think about it.
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that some practitioners with special physiques and certain practitioners will see it.
However, Chen Jinngle valued more than the commotion and the effect of frightening all kinds of people.
This is the first time he has experienced a situation where the trick door is wide open after a strange resuscitation, and he is afraid that something will happen.
As the creator and maintainer of order, he naturally hates it being destroyed.
It's good to be shocked.
…
So the judge and the ghost messengers were summoned.
The order said: "On the two days of the Ghost Festival, the trick door will be wide open. I am afraid there will be some commotion in the world. In order to prevent blind things from coming out to cause trouble, the city god decided to hold a patrol ceremony to demonstrate the ceremony and scare the people. Weird. You will come with me when the time comes. Please work overtime for your hard work, and I will send you three sticks of Qinnan each person to drop the real fragrance."
The judge and all the ghost guards were all refreshed: "Yes!"
Jiangzhenxiang is the top sacred incense in Taoism. Because the material is precious, it is usually only used to worship the top gods, such as Sanqing, Jade Emperor, etc. In large-scale sacrificial occasions, it is often used as the first incense.
And Qinan is the highest grade among them.
Ordinary little gods are not qualified to enjoy it, let alone those shady people like them. Only the Lord City God is so generous and willing to give it up.
Immediately I burst into tears of gratitude, and a feeling of dying for a confidant emerged spontaneously.
I want the horse to run, but I also want the horse not to eat grass. How can I do that? Do I think I am stupid?
Chen Jingle is not an unscrupulous capitalist.
Of course, some benefits should be given appropriately.
These true incense can be exchanged directly from the system mall, which is not rare, but it is still very effective for low-level gods, and it is a rare good thing for Yin Zai.
"Zhong Cheng stays, and everyone else returns to their places and performs their duties."
Chen Jingle said.
Upon seeing this, all the bad guys resigned one after another. After leaving, I couldn't help but chatted with him a few words excitedly.
"I've never tried going out at night, so I'm a little scared. I wonder if there will be a lot of spooks there?"
"...Are you kidding me? You are a shady right now! The shady should be afraid of you!"
"Yes, hahaha. Sorry, I didn't react at the moment."
"It smells so good. Lord Cheng Huang is so generous. I feel more and more that agreeing to become a yinshi is the wisest decision in my life!"
"Where are you just now? Lord Cheng Huang also said that if I perform well, he will promote me to the Soul Seducer! So, how important it is to have a good boss!"
"That's right, that's right."
"..."
"Are you still used to it?"
Chen Jinngle asked Zhong Cheng.
Except for a little observation on the first day, he didn't pay much attention to it later and completely let it play out.
Zhong Cheng quickly replied: "Lord Hui Chenghuang, everything is still under control. Since Xiaguan took office, a total of 183 dead souls have been interrogated, and 52 of them have been found guilty. The degree of guilt varies. Please check the specific situation."
Chen Jingle took the verdict and browsed it, nodding slightly: "It's done well, it's quite reasonable. We should have a tough attitude towards evil people and deal with them severely."
Zhong Cheng deeply agreed.
"By the way, if I remember correctly, today is your seventh day?"
Chen Jingle asked.
Zhong Cheng choked and paused briefly: "Yes."
"Then go back and take a look." Chen Jingle waved his hand.
Seeing Zhong Cheng looking at him in surprise, he immediately laughed: "How can I be a pedantic person? But it's just this once, after seeing it, the fate of the world will be over, do you understand?"
"Thank you, Lord Chenghuang!"
Zhong Cheng bowed deeply.
Non-vegetation, ruthless Practice makes perfect.
Since his soul returned to the underworld, Zhong Cheng has been thinking about his elderly parents, wife and children at home, but due to his current status, it is inconvenient.
Since Lord Cheng Huang personally approved the leave, let’s go back and take a look!
ten minutes later,
Zhong Cheng reappeared, regaining his usual look. Everything that needs to be explained has been explained, and my wish has been fulfilled.
From now on, he will only have the identity of Orange County Judge!
…
Two days passed in a blink of an eye.
July fourteenth.
This morning, Chen Jingle was called to help by her grandma early on. Today was a day of worship, and there were a lot of people, so she had to go early and come back early, so as not to delay everyone's breakfast.
After finishing everything and finishing the big meal, Chen Jinngle slipped away.
Go back home and wait for the evening to come.
The trick has arrived and the trick door is about to open!
