Chu Chen disagreed with the kid's theory of "blessing and eliminating disasters".
The appointment documents of Xianting have been distributed to all counties in Qingzhou, and the result is a foregone conclusion.
At this time it is too late to "do it".
However, Chu Chen still felt the sharpness of the little ghost's magical power.
As soon as I went out, a large flock of birds happened to fly overhead, followed by a large pile of bird droppings falling from the sky.
If he had not been a monk, he would have been bombarded with bird droppings.
When he went to a street noodle stall to eat a bowl of noodles, he encountered a "price increase." .
Such "little bad luck" incidents happened to Chu Chen intensively.
"What a good guy, he is indeed a crow's mouth!"
Chu Chen cursed in his heart, but did not stop the little devil.
The small bad luck derived from the weak aura of disaster can be resolved invisibly with his Taoist cultivation, and it will not cause much trouble.
He just let the little devil do what he did.
Not long after, Chu Chen brought the little ghost boy to the County Guishensi Yamen.
With the help of Lao Liu and the Mutual Aid Association, Chu Chen's job of "catching demons" was extremely leisurely. He practiced at home every day, and his achievements, bounties, and achievements came one after another.
Speaking of which, he hasn't come to the Guishensi Yamen of the county for several days.
Like Chu Chen, there were many first-class deputy squad leaders who hurried back to the Ghosts and Gods Department from outside.
Apparently, they also heard the news and hurried back to the county town.
"Junior brother~"
Among the first-class deputy squad leaders who hurriedly returned to the County Ghosts and Gods Department, there was the senior brother Zhenqing.
"Elder brother, have you heard the news too?"
Chu Chen smiled as his spiritual consciousness transmitted the message, and stood there waiting for his senior brother Zhenqing.
"Hmm~"
"Elder brother, did your uncle reveal anything?"
"The counselors in charge of each county are drafted by the Qingzhou Ghosts and Gods Department. Master doesn't know the specific situation. Alas, senior brother, I still haven't been able to capture the seventh-grade demon, and I don't know if I can stand for election."
Senior Brother Zhenqing lost the full confidence he had before and was slightly uneasy.
Chu Chen couldn't say much, so he said a few words of relief and entered the County Ghosts and Gods Office together with his senior brother Zhenqing.
After entering the Yamen, the eldest brother went to Dihao Courtyard, while Chu Chen went to Huanghao Courtyard.
As soon as you enter Huanghao Courtyard, you will be greeted by a guard.
Jiuqiu Shanren, the dean of Huanghaoyuan, summoned all the first-class deputy heads of the hospital to discuss the matter.
Chu Chen followed the officers through five or six corridors and arrived at the Huanghaoyuan meeting hall.
In the meeting hall, many people had already taken their seats.
The squad leaders Lin Wuqing and Wang Ping had already arrived.
Lin Wuqing was one of the vice-presidents and was on the throne. Chu Chen slightly bowed his hands to the class leader, then sat down next to Wang Ping and asked with a smile:
"Brother Wang, is there any news?"
"I didn't find out." Wang Ping shook his head and then said with a smile: "However, I am sure that someone in our Huanghaoyuan must be selected."
After finishing speaking, Wang Ping proudly raised his chest and felt quite confident.
Chu Chen smiled and said nothing.
Others don't know, but he knows it very well.
Wang Ping used the power of his family and sect to successfully kill the seventh-level wanted demons a few days ago, and also captured many other demons with bounties on them.
With the connections behind Wang Ping, Chu Chen was not surprised at all when he won the position of "Council Counselor".
This is considered commonplace.
As long as we are sentient beings and a social group, it is inevitable for people to be sophisticated and there is no absolute fairness.
In about the time it took for a stick of incense to be burned, the meeting hall of the Yellow Courtyard was filled with people. The heads of the fourth courtyards A, B, C, and D, and the deputy squad leaders A arrived one after another and took their seats.
Jiuqiu Shanren, the dean of Huanghaoyuan, came over from outside in a hurry.
"Meet the dean!"
Led by Lin Wuqing and several other vice-presidents, a group of first-class deputy heads saluted one after another.
Jiuqiu Mountain Man nodded to everyone.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
Jiuqiu Shanren sat on the main seat with a smile on his face, which made people feel like spring breeze.
"Recently, Qingzhou's most wanted demons have been brought to justice one after another, especially the demons below the seventh grade. Seventy to eighty percent of them have been captured and executed. The results are remarkable. You all here have made great contributions. The state shepherd and the state governor have praised you..."
The people of Jiuqiu Mountain do things vigorously and resolutely, and do not mince words.
First, he briefly stated the gratifying results achieved in the recent hunt for monsters, and praised all the first-class deputy leaders present... After a lot of other words, the dean, Jiuqiu Shanren, entered the reward phase.
In addition to the immediate bounty, any first-class deputy squad leader who has recently captured a demon with a bounty on his head will also be rewarded with an additional thousand jade coins.
Upon hearing the news, the faces of all the first-class deputy squad leaders showed joy.
Due to the recent arrests of wanted monsters one after another, the reward gap in various counties is a bit large. Many people have not yet received their rewards, and each of them is faced with the embarrassing situation of paying money to do errands and being heavily in debt.
Not to mention all the bounty money, an additional thousand jade coins were awarded, and everyone was very satisfied.
Of course, many first-class deputy leaders who have advanced Taoist practices and have captured several wanted monsters don't care about this. They only care about the appointment documents of the Immortal Court and hope that they will be named on the list.
In particular, several first-class deputy squad leaders who are seventh-level Taoists and enjoy the treatment of "squad leader" all look forward to becoming "county counselors" and use this as a springboard to advance to the next level.
Jiuqiu Mountain Man did not whet everyone's appetite and took out the Immortal Court's decree from his sleeve.
"Catching monsters and subjugating them, saving the common people, and protecting the country and the people, they have made great contributions..."
"After discussion with the senior officials of Xianting, it is proposed that Wang Ping, the leader of the A-class deputy class of Huanghaoyuan, Guangping County's Department of Ghosts and Gods, will be appointed as the counselor of the county's capital to assist in the affairs of the capital..."
As Dean Jiuqiu Shanren finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Wang Ping, their faces full of surprise.
In particular, the faces of several Class A deputy leaders with seventh-level Taoist cultivation were anxious and unhappy.
Just him? Eighth-level Taoism?
Wang Ping raised his head slightly and straightened his chest, facing the surprised gazes of everyone, feeling quite calm.
Immediately afterwards, Jiuqiu Shanren began to read out Wang Ping's recent performance and achievements.
During this period, Wang Ping's appearance was outstanding, and he captured and killed "wanted demons" one after another, including two ninth-grade demons, six eighth-grade demons, two seventh-grade demons...
After the results were read out, the chatter became much quieter.
Many people had expressions of realization on their faces. They really wanted to hunt down the seventh-grade demon.
While everyone was talking in low voices, Dean Jiuqiu Shanren began to read out the next appointment.
And appointments?
Everyone was quite surprised. Several first-class deputy captains with seventh-level Taoist training had no time to express their displeasure. They all looked forward to it, hoping that they would be selected.
"After discussion with the senior officials of Xianting, it is planned to be appointed as Guangping County Ghost and God Supervisor Division, Class A of Huanghaoyuan, and Chu Chen, Class A deputy leader, will be the counselor of the Dudu Supervisor of the county to assist the Dudu..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole place was in an uproar.
"Councilor of the County Capital" is not a formal immortal position that has been established for a long time. Its main purpose is to cultivate young immortal officials and reserve talents. Therefore, the selection is not based on seniority or Taoism, but on the basis of "talent potential" and "exceptional promotion". Selection of personnel.
Everyone knows this very well.
However, looking at the young faces of Wang Ping and Chu Chen, the class leaders and deputy class A leaders still had mixed feelings in their hearts.
The Jiuqiu Mountain people had already anticipated everyone's reaction, so they ignored it and continued to read out Chu Chen's resume and achievements.
"Deputy Chu has only been in charge of our Huanghaoyuan for a few months. He has repeatedly performed extraordinary feats. He first killed the disaster beast Xie Xie and nipped the disaster in the cradle. During the ghost trouble in Zhongyuan, Deputy Chu's squad leader won the fifth place in the competition. He achieved good results, and then made his first contribution in the Pink Skull Case. He recently took over the task of hunting down demons and made great contributions. He successively killed four ninth-level demons, five eighth-level demons, and one seventh-level demon... Deputy Class Chu Tou Daoxing has profound magical powers, outstanding abilities, and has excellent performance in all major errands..."
Compared with Wang Ping's resume, Chu Chen's resume and achievements are much more glamorous and more convincing.
In just a few months, Chu Chen has repeatedly made contributions and performed outstandingly in all aspects. It is impossible to fault him, and he fully meets the selection requirements for "Councilor of the County Capital".
Since they are several first-class deputy leaders with seventh-level Taoist cultivation, they have nothing to say.
Unconsciously, everyone talked less about Chu Chen in private, and their eyes fell on Wang Ping again.
