"You ask, I answer, and I will tell the truth."
The little loach looked at the old man in front of him with pitiful eyes.
In order to save one's life, things like moral integrity are not important at all.
"Then what does Cao Wuyang of the Lei Department have to do with you?"
There was a smile on the old man's face, but there was scrutiny in his eyes.
"You are talking about General Cao. He thought that I was not a thing in the pond and would definitely achieve great things in the future. As the saying goes: the dragon's roar in the sky is shocking, and it will turn into a dragon when it encounters the storm... So he always supports me everywhere, every time I go When the clouds are being laid, they will take the opportunity to teach me how to use thunder."
Qiu Ping thought about it in his mind. Although the big black face always glared at him every time he saw him, and even let himself experience the feeling of being struck by lightning, he must be polishing himself. These are all harmful to himself. The selfless love.
"So, you asked him to kill Yu Delong?"
The old man's face remained motionless, and there was no emotional change in his eyes. He just continued to ask.
"How dare I do this? Although I serve in the Lei Department, my roots are still in the Shinto world. Maybe General Cao felt that I had been wronged, so he took the initiative to make the decision for me. How can I command such a big official? You have to touch him."
Qiu Ping felt guilty when he said this and looked around.
He lied.
In fact, he gave Cao Wuyang gifts, and he also gave them heavy gifts.
That's a whole hundred kilograms of purple gold ore.
But maybe the gift was too heavy. Originally, Qiu Ping just wanted to scare Yu Delong. Who would have thought that Lao Cao would really kill him.
"Well, so Yu Delong has offended you before?"
The old man was thoughtful, stretched out his hand to stroke his beard, and continued to ask.
Qiu Ping was about to answer, but he immediately became alert. Could this old man be lying to him?
"Ahaha, when we hang out in the officialdom, there will always be political differences, but it's just some minor frictions occasionally."
Qiu Ping laughed dryly, then quickly turned his head, his little face hidden in the darkness already covered in frost.
This old man is really cunning, and he actually lied to himself without making a move.
You have to thank yourself for being clever and fooling around with this matter, otherwise you will be in trouble.
The blood contract he signed with She Yuan must not be known to outsiders.
"So, the blood contract privately agreed between you and She Yuan is also true?"
The old man continued to ask slowly.
Hearing this, Little Loach felt his head buzz, and his blood immediately surged. His palms were trembling a little, but he still pretended to be calm.
"You made an agreement with She Yuan that you would help him obtain the position of Lord of Yan Lake, and he would give you the authority over Yan Lake and many of the divine positions in the Water Mansion."
"Kakakaka."
The little loach's body shook even more violently.
This old man is so well-informed that he even knows such secret information.
"But in the end, Yu Delong caught him. Yu Delong enforced the law impartially and did not allow you to make a private blood contract. So you held a grudge, so you invited Cao Wuyang to attack Yu Delong and cut off the other party's path."
"Fart! Uh... I mean there's something wrong with what you said."
"They plotted against me first and wanted to prostitute me for nothing. I worked hard to help them obtain the divine status. They turned their backs and refused to recognize me. I couldn't gain anything from this. Then I was not in vain when I was fighting. Did you beat him up so many times?"
Qiu Ping felt aggrieved. Even if he spent some money, it wouldn't be much.
Ugh, disgusting!
"They call it fishing for law enforcement, no, that's called fishing for free! I mean, uncle..."
The more Qiu Ping thought about it, the angrier he became, scolding Yu Delong and She Yuan until they were bloody. But when he turned around, he found that the old man had disappeared.
There was nothing all around, except in the void, where brilliant firelight burned on the continuous government offices of the Zhoucheng God, illuminating the whole world brightly.
…
"Zhuolongguan promoted Qiu Ping, made a blood contract with Ren Yin, and privately obtained the power of Shinto... He was specially ordered to be banned from Yanhu Lake for one year and was fined for six months, which will be implemented immediately."
Qiu Ping had only been back for two days when he received a "fine ticket" from the government office of the God's Mansion in Zhoucheng.
The little loach was as listless as a wilted eggplant, with an air of hopelessness.
He knew that the old man must be from the government office of the God of the City of Zhou, otherwise he would not know the inside story so clearly.
And all this must have been told by Yu Delong.
If this old guy had known better, he would not have given him that jar of folk medicine to treat his wounds. Unfortunately, it would have cost him several taels of money.
"Huh? I didn't expect that Qiu Tiju not only has a background in the Lei Department, but also has an acquaintance in the Zhouchenghuangfu Yamen. I didn't realize it." Judge Cui held the punishment document about Qiu Ping in his hand, and the expression on his face Somewhat eccentric.
Qiu Pingping was expressionless, "I can understand that you are mocking?"
I can't tell, even Judge Cui, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, knows about intersex people.
No, he remembered that Judge Cui in the Ninth Transportation Department Yamen was very good at intersex.
"No, haven't you seen Yu Delong's punishment document?"
"Did Yu Delong also be fined?"
Qiu Ping's little ears immediately stood up. If Yu Delong was also punished, he would feel much more balanced.
"A fine? That's not true. He has been banned, but the location of the ban is the River Styx deep in the Abi Hell. He is not allowed to leave for a hundred years."
Even Judge Cui felt sorry for Yu Delong. If he stayed in the Styx River for a hundred years, even his immortal body would be severely eroded.
"It shows that our Shinto is still very fair and just... But did we miss one person, and then She Yuan is fine? It was this old boy who tricked himself into signing the blood contract."
Although Qiu Ping was not punished too much this time, he still suffered a loss in this matter. He was unhappy to see She Yuan go unpunished.
"Guess why you placed your confinement location at Weir Lake?"
"Why?"
Judge Cui was a little speechless. Our Lord Ji was sometimes very smart, but sometimes he was so naive that he seemed a bit stupid.
"I don't want to say more. You should go to Yanhu Lake for retreat earlier. I have some things to do here, so I won't send you there. You should be familiar with the location of Yanhu Lake than me."
Judge Cui cupped his hands and hurriedly left, leaving only the confused little Loach behind.
"What's this all about? Why don't you punish She Yuan? Is there any royal law in this world? Is there any law?"
Qiu Ping was very angry. After sulking alone for a while, a shadow of the prototype of the realm appeared under him. It moved three hundred miles and arrived at Yanhu Lake in the blink of an eye.
…
"What are you looking at! I'm not welcome."
As soon as Qiu Ping arrived at the entrance of Yanhu Shuibo Mansion, the soldiers and generals on both sides tried to stop him.
The little loach had a stinky face and looked like it was about to bite someone.
"Don't dare, please come in quickly."
Just when those soldiers and crab generals didn't know what to do, She Yuan hurriedly walked out of the Yamen with a somewhat ugly smile on her face.
"Huh? There must be something fishy about being so enthusiastic."
She Yuan's body was a white-scaled snake, with a sharp face and vertical pupils. He had a sinister face. At this moment, coupled with his weird smile, Qiu Ping suddenly felt frightened.
He looked at the deep Shui Bo Mansion. Could it be that there were eight hundred swordsmen squatting behind it, and once he entered, they would throw a cup as a sign and have his head removed?
"No, I won't go in. You can clean up a room nearby for me. I'm going to ground you!"
Qiu Ping also couldn't understand what the people at Zhoucheng Huang's Yamen were thinking, and why he had to be banned from Yanhu Lake. Was it because the scenery here was good? Or is it because there is an enemy here who can help relieve his boredom?
I really appreciate your great kindness.
"Room? No, [Shanhe Pond] is ready. You can go there and refine it at any time. I have removed Uncle Shui's authority protection. As long as you pour your spiritual thoughts into it, you can use all the functions of the entire [Shanhe Pond]. .”
"Of course, the time limit for this refining can only be within my term of office. After all, this thing belongs to Yanhu Lake alone, and we cannot turn it into a private treasure."
A wry smile appeared on She Yuan's face, and she didn't know whether this person was really stupid or pretending to be stupid.
Why would the superiors inexplicably order a person to go to someone else's territory and be banned? This must have a deeper meaning.
What is the specific meaning? Needless to say, this is for you to retreat in the [Mountain River Pool].
If I don't take the initiative to give up [Mountain River Pool], it will make me seem ignorant.
The penalty notices for Qiu Pinghe and Yu Delong were issued almost at the same time, but these two completely different penalties revealed something unusual.
What's unusual?
Xiao Niyi's penalty was too light, and Yu Delong's penalty was too harsh.
It doesn't matter whether he is grounded for a year or banned in mountains, rivers and ponds. This is not a punishment. This is clearly protection and reward. As for the salary for that half-year, any god of rank five or six would not take his salary seriously.
As for Yu Delong, he was banned from the Styx River for a hundred years. If he was not careful and his path reversed, he might be ruined in this life.
And what does all this mean? The background behind Little Loach is very deep! Even if he doesn't reach the rank of Zhou Chenghuang, he must still be a third or fourth grade official, which is something they can't offend at this level.
Especially after Yu Delong was sent to Abi Hell, She Yuan was almost restless.
If the superiors found out about Yu Delong and Qiu Ping, it would be impossible not to know what role he played in them.
But he was not given any punishment, which is very intriguing.
Although She Yuan is not smart, if he couldn't even figure out this problem, he wouldn't have gotten to where he is today.
As a result, he immediately gave up one-third of the mountains and rivers that he had refined. As long as Qiu Ping came to restrain him, he would immediately give the mountains and rivers to him to refine.
"Something is wrong, something is wrong out of 10 or 12 times!"
Qiu Ping was extremely suspicious. This old boy's enthusiasm was too exaggerated. Could it be that there was an ambush in the [Mountain River Pond]?
"Qiu Tiju, this is a list of personnel positions I have drawn up. Do you think it is suitable?"
While leading the way, She Yuan took out a thin document from her sleeve and handed it to Qiu Ping respectfully.
Qiu Ping hesitantly took the list and only turned to the previous page to see that the names of Li Huanying, Biejian San'er, and Qu Jingjing were clearly listed, and the divine positions arranged later were all seventh-grade or eighth-grade. Rank, as for the following, although they are all eighth and ninth ranks, the place for the name is blank.
"I am currently short of manpower. If you have a suitable candidate, please recommend it. But you don't need to write it down. Once you make the recommendation, I will fill in the rest."
She Yuan smiled broadly.
He is an old bureaucrat, so naturally he doesn't want to leave any clues when doing things. If Qiu Ping lets Qiu Ping fill the throne casually and is stabbed out, that would be giving away the throne privately, which would be a serious crime.
But if he were to fill it in himself, he would ask Little Loach to help recommend some outstanding talents to join Yanhu.
The concept here is completely different.
What? What Qiu Ping recommends are all loaches?
That's normal. This is called promoting talents without avoiding relatives. We only care about recruiting outstanding talents, and the rest are just side effects.
When Little Loach saw the list, he felt as if he had received a hot soldering iron and quickly handed it to She Yuan.
He didn't dare to touch this thing anymore. It was already banned. If he still didn't know whether to live or die, he would have to be Yu Delong's neighbor in the future.
From today on, we must abide by the laws and regulations and not follow evil ways!
"I understand, I understand! We are still in the limelight now. Let's talk about these work matters after some time."
She Yuan reacted immediately, looked around with some vigilance, and then gave Qiu Ping a knowing expression.
That's true. If you commit crimes against the wind now, it's because you don't want to die quickly enough.
Qiu Ping opened his mouth. He felt that the other party had some misunderstanding, but seeing the sincere look on the other party's face, he held back what he wanted to say.
The two of them were talking and soon arrived in front of the [Mountain River Pond].
When the power is not revealed, it is almost the same as an ordinary pool. It's just that the entire pool is in the form of an inversion. Although there are ripples of water inside, it doesn't spill out at all. It looks very magical.
"Let me tell you, if you have any conspiracy, don't blame me for being rude. I am very powerful! I also have many acquaintances in the Lei Department!"
Qiu Ping stretched out his paw and touched the [Mountain River Pond]. The cold touch felt like the most delicate white jade in the world.
She Yuan had a wry smile on her face and bowed deeply to Qiu Ping.
Now he just wants Xiao Niyi to stop thinking about the conflict between the two, otherwise his heart will never be able to let go.
Qiu Ping was doubtful and Weiwei spread his spiritual thoughts around.
In his perception, the surrounding area was clean, and there was no trace of anyone hiding.
"Then I'll really refine it."
The more Little Loach thought about it, the weirder he felt. Why did She Yuan change so much? While he was thinking about it, he put his spiritual thoughts into the mountains, rivers and ponds.
"Buzz."
The entire mountain river pool trembled slightly, and then a surging attraction force pulled his spiritual thoughts, madly dragging more spiritual thoughts out of his brain and injecting them into the mountain river pool.
Depend on! Let me just say it, it is indeed a scam!
