After waiting for several breaths, no one answered Chu Chen.
There were only a few ghosts and gods who kept on defending, with only a few pale words going back and forth.
Chu Chen was too lazy to talk to them and closed his eyes to rest.
There is no harm without buying and selling.
The ghosts and gods he invited were all ghosts and gods who had purchased incense for worship.
The lowest charges are to help demons become arrogant, to neglect their duties, and no one is an innocent god.
As for the extent of the final crime, it depends on the follow-up investigation.
This time, Han Chen paid great attention to him and gave him the full command of "wiping out the demons and demons in Yunlin". He did not need to charge into battle and wipe out the demons himself. He only had to sit in the center, dispatch troops from all sides, and wait for news. It’s done.
As long as we sweep Yunlin County with lightning speed and arrest the demons and monsters that surface, everything will naturally come to light.
The meeting hall was quiet, and the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.
The county's Department of Ghosts and Gods has strict restrictions, and there is no chance to spread the news, nor does it know the situation outside.
All the ghosts and gods were restless.
He wanted to avoid this place, but he didn't dare to take even half a step out of the main hall.
Once you step out of the meeting hall, you are fleeing in fear of crime.
The Du Guan can hold the City God's Seal in their hand, and with a single exposure of the Seal, their status as gods can be reduced, causing them to be reduced from worshiping ghosts and gods to grass-headed wild gods. This fate is even more serious than committing a crime.
Many ghosts and gods felt guilty and became increasingly depressed.
The green smoke from the incense burner curled up, and time passed by the tip of everyone's noses.
The calm and focused Xinxiang did not calm the ghosts and gods, but made them more and more restless.
After a stick of incense.
Yunlin Du Guan ordered another piece of blue smoke to appear, showing a picture.
"This god is the Niutou General of Guangping County. I was ordered to exterminate the demons in Tuwea Mountain. Fortunately, I fulfilled my order and captured all the demons. I confiscated countless stolen goods and enshrined hundreds of contract documents..."
Not long after the first good news came, another picture floated out of the [Yunlin Metropolitan Control Order].
"In charge of Chu Du, Pindao is the deputy leader of the Ding Class A of Huanghaoyuan in Guangping County. He was ordered to lead the troops to destroy the sixth Yunwu Ghost City stronghold. The stronghold has been controlled and the contract documents, human spirits, and living souls have been seized. Waiting for countless stolen goods..."
...
In the following period, good news came frequently.
As soon as Xianting takes action, it will sweep the holes and sweep across the entire underground demon world in Yunlin County.
All monsters that surfaced due to the "cloud ghost market" and whose whereabouts were exposed were swiftly and fatally attacked.
The ghosts and gods in the meeting hall looked at the scene of clear smoke and people were constantly "announced", especially when they heard the "contract document", their hearts trembled, and Chu Chen's words "confession is lenient, resistance is lenient" constantly appeared in their minds. Be strict.”
Afterwards, people from all walks of life in Xianting began to examine on the spot, and evidence emerged one by one, and was presented one by one through the scenes that evolved in the metropolitan control order.
When some ghosts and gods saw that the immortal officials of the Immortal Court found their names in the ledger of an underground bank owner, they all stopped making excuses.
"No matter what, the little god pleads guilty. He was so greedy for profit that he bought some incense from shady sources and did stupid things. However, the little god dares to swear to God that he has never colluded with monsters to harm the people." .”
This is an eighth-level land god who is in charge of a certain township under Yunlin and has a reputation as a virtuous person.
As the land god "pleaded guilty and surrendered", other ghosts and gods could not sit still.
"It doesn't matter, the little god also bought incense to worship..."
"The same goes for little gods, please show your respect..."
...
Not long after, all the ghosts and gods in the hall prostrated themselves in large numbers and bowed again and again. .
In the past, these ghosts and gods were so aloof and arbitrary, but now they are so submissive and full of regrets.
"Hey, it's all in charge, the little god is confused. I belong to this land, protect the peace and tranquility of the people, benefit this place, live forever, live freely, how wonderful my life is, but I have been the land god in this land for a long time, and everyone respects and worships me. Over time, we lost our sense of awe, developed demonic greed, and allowed luck to turn into inner demons, which mistakenly led us onto a path of no return..."
Some ghosts and gods began to repent of what they had done.
The rhetoric was so well-founded and profound that even Chu Chen couldn't find anything wrong with it.
Look at how enlightened and high-minded these ghosts and gods are.
But... they still took chances and acted like playing with fire.
Perhaps, only at the moment when the incident occurred and there was irrefutable proof, could these ghosts and gods truly achieve "unity of knowledge and action" and "great enlightenment."
Corrupt officials have always been like this since ancient times.
Chu Chen watched the ghosts and gods "confession" without saying much. His eyes fell on the deputy governors Yun Henian and Lin Bufan.
Among the evidence searched and displayed by the immortal officials in Xianting, many evidence points directly to the Yun and Lin families.
"Fellow Daoist Yun, Friend Daoist Lin, Yun and Lin are exploiting the people, colluding with demons, and are greedy. What do you two have to say?"
Yun Henian and Lin Bufan looked calm, even a little relieved, and said:
"No matter what, they are responsible for themselves and no one else. We have cut off all ties with the family since we joined the Taoist sect, and we have never participated in colluding with demons. We have a clear conscience!"
"Two fellow Taoists, let me just believe what you two say and pretend that you have never had anything to do with demons!"
Chu Chen laughed dumbly, as if he had heard a big joke, and said disdainfully:
"But, as for having a clear conscience? It's really a joke. How can you have a clear conscience?"
"Without the secret protection of you two deputy directors, would the Yunwu Ghost City strongholds be popping up one after another like mushrooms after a rain?"
"You two dare to say that you don't show favoritism outside the law and protect your clan members?"
Yun Henian and Lin Bufan were startled.
Afterwards, the two of them stopped defending and sighed, with a look of regret on their faces.
"The lesson learned by Chu Du is that we are ashamed of our fellow villagers in Yunlin and the founder of the Taoist sect."
In the entire meeting hall, the two deputy governors and all the ghosts and gods were filled with regret and sat in deep self-examination.
Chu Chen couldn't help but shake his head as he listened to their "confession".
Chu Chen shook his head and couldn't help but said: "Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it! You are worshiped by all people and your spirit will last forever and you will live forever. If there are no people, how can you talk about living forever?"
"A good piece of water can carry a boat and also capsize it!"
As he spoke, a clear female voice came from far away.
Chu Chen and a group of ghosts and gods went out looking for fame and saw a baby-faced woman in green walking on auspicious clouds.
"In charge of Chu Du, I am the god Salamander Qingyi. In accordance with the decree of Lord Dongyue, I will arrest the ghosts and gods who committed crimes in Yunlin and bring them to justice."
"We've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Chu Chen felt happy.
This time, the local tyrants, monsters, ghosts, ghosts, and snakes in Yunlin County were easy to deal with. Xianting sent a large number of troops. He only needed to mobilize troops and generals to sweep away Yunlin and restore peace to Yunlin.
Only Shinto ghosts and gods are more troublesome.
The governor only has the power to control and punish ghosts and gods, but does not have the power to remove or appoint ghosts and gods.
This power is in the hands of the Imperial Capital of the Celestial Dynasty, the Immortal Capital of the Immortal Courtyard, and the Lord of the Five Mountains Mansion.
The Lord of the Five Sacred Mountains in this world is not the Emperor of the Five Sacred Mountains in the sky, but the Five Sacred Mountains in the local area. He holds the authority of the Five Sacred Mountains in this world. He rules the ghosts and gods of this world, communicates Yin and Yang, and has great supernatural powers!
Now, Dongyue Mansion has sent people here, which means that the ghosts and gods in Yunlin County may not face punishment, but all have to step down.
When all the ghosts and gods heard that someone from "Dongyue Mansion" was coming, they also understood the dangers involved. They were all frightened as if they were mourning for their heirs.
In this regard, Chu Chen is happy to see the success.
Don't look at the ghosts and gods who are all very enlightened at the moment. They are all like "sages and Buddhas", seeing their nature and knowing their minds, and they have great enlightenment.
If the matter had not been exposed, they would have been acting recklessly in private, laughing and insulting, secretly mocking those who were respectful, practicing and running business seriously, and then they would have been complacent and arrogant.
