"I don't know if I can be a god. I only know that after I recognized Cai Guizhong's abilities and contributions, he was canonized by all the people on the spot and became the City God of Mianyuan County..."
Qin Shaoyou still chose to tell the truth.
But under the influence of [Skillful Tongue], his truth was full of hints.
At least according to what Xu Hejian heard, even if Cai Guizhong was really canonized as a city god by the people of heaven and earth, it was Qin Shaoyou who conveyed decrees on behalf of heaven and earth and conferred duties on behalf of all people.
In a sense, what Qin Shaoyou did was a bit like the emperor's eunuch...
No, he was not only a eunuch who issued decrees, but also had a little power as an eunuch who held pen to criticize people.
Xu Wenjun suppressed the excitement in his heart, and after a brief pause, he asked: "If another person like Cai Guizhong appears, can you also canonize him as a god?"
People from the Shu King lineage want to create gods?
Qin Shaoyou was secretly frightened, but on the surface he replied calmly: "I don't know."
Qin Shaoyou's answer, although somewhat regrettable to Xu Juxuan, was also within his expectation.
Even if an ordinary person is involved in the matter of conferring a god, and is tasked with carrying out writings and delivering decrees, he probably does not know much about it.
After pondering for a moment, Xu Wenhuan asked Cai Guizhong from beginning to end about the matter of becoming the city god.
Especially some details, Xu Wenhuan asked over and over again.
Xu did not stop the interrogation until he thought he had a thorough understanding of how Cai Guizhong became a god.
He adjusted his crystal glasses again, causing strange protruding eyeballs to appear on them.
After these protruding eyes stared directly at Qin Shaoyou, Xu Wenjian said slowly: "Forget all the questions I just raised, don't keep any of them in your mind. I'm calling you out today, I just asked you about some experience methods to guard against and interrogate monsters... Do you remember them?"
"Remember." Qin Shaoyou muttered as he stared at the eyeballs on the crystal glasses, his eyes becoming more and more distracted.
"Very good." Xu Wenchen did not see the flaw and nodded with satisfaction. Then he took out a green gourd from his arms. After removing the stopper, he poured out a fishy-smelling pill and handed it to him. Qin Shaoyou ordered: "Take it."
Qin Shaoyou reached out and took the pill, and clearly saw that there were tiny insects crawling on the brown pill.
Is this a Gu insect pill? Or some other curse control pill?
Although the origin of this pill is unclear, Qin Shaoyou can be sure of one thing - Xu Shenping asked him to take this insect pill just to control him.
He didn't want to take this stuff, but at this time, if he didn't take the pill, the fact that he was not hypnotized would be exposed immediately.
By then, not only will they be alerted, but they will also be killed and their wells filled.
Therefore, although he felt that the pill was disgusting and dangerous, Qin Shaoyou still had to bite the bullet, pretending to have no hesitation, and put it into his mouth and swallowed it while Xu Wenchen watched.
As for the weird bugs and toxins in the pills, I will ask Wenzhu and Zuo Qianhu for help when I get back.
Worst of all, there is Jiutian Demon Patriarch who can help.
The burning black lotus from the monk "See You Tomorrow" was digested and absorbed by Qin Shaoyou with the help of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, and turned into "boiled cabbage".
After making sure that Qin Shaoyou swallowed the pill, Xu Wenchen nodded with satisfaction and said, "Go back."
Immediately, he ignored him and turned to leave.
However, what Xu Wencheng didn't know was that the pill he asked Qin Shaoyou to take did not play its due role at all.
Just as the pill entered his mouth, Qin Shaoyou felt two forces, one hot and one cold, springing out of his arms and rushing towards the pill he had swallowed with lightning speed.
Qin Shaoyou even discovered that these two forces were actually competing against each other, both wanting to be the first to kill the pill.
So much so that Qin Shaoyou was a little confused: Are even supernatural items so involved now? Not to mention protecting the master by oneself, are you still afraid that the credit will be taken away by your companions?
The more involutions like this, the better!
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but picture this in his mind: a red snake and a black turtle, roaring and rushing towards the pill. The tiny bugs on the pill could only tremble and look desperate...
In the end, the snake's heat energy was one step faster and wrapped around the pill.
Turtle General Ling, who failed to take the credit, could only vent his grievances on Xu Wenxuan.
Qin Shaoyou could see clearly that just when Xu Wenchen turned around, a trace of water appeared on his back.
It looked like sweat stains, and disappeared quickly, leaving Xu Huanping unaware.
Only Qin Shaoyou knew that it was revenge for Gui Jiang's order to be tried by Xu. That piece of water has quietly integrated into Xu Shenjun's body, like the life and death talisman of Tianshan Child Elder. It may explode at any time, making Xu Shenxuan's life worse than death.
Gu Yu
It seems that as a cook, I am becoming more and more popular with Grandmaster.
If such a plot was put in a story about a domineering president, would it be the domineering patriarch protecting his little wife, the god of cooking?
Qin Shaoyou couldn't help but shudder, quickly put aside some very suitable pictures that appeared in his mind, and then turned around and returned to the courtyard.
In the courtyard, King Shu and his crown prince had already left the table.
The banquet has come to an end.
Qin Shaoyou's heart moved, and he once again turned the effect of [Listening] to the maximum, and quickly locked a position...
After some time, the banquet was over, and the official of the palace came out to help the King of Shu see off his guests. Under the guidance of the servants of the palace, everyone left the palace of the King of Shu.
Some familiar officials had not yet finished their fun, so they gathered together in twos and threes, clamoring to go to the Chunlou Tavern, where they would sing, dance, drink and have fun.
There are also some officials who are cultivating friendships and building connections, and plan to continue at Chunlou Tavern.
This banquet at the Prince of Shu's Mansion also boosted the brothel economy in the city.
Even Qin Shaoyou was found.
And the person who found him was actually Lu Qian.
This Lu Qian looks quite decent. If Qin Shaoyou hadn't learned some of this man's crimes from Feng Biao, just looking at his appearance and temperament, he might have been regarded as a Confucian general who cares about his family and country. .
Lu Qian made an appointment with several officials to go to a brothel. When he saw Qin Shaoyou, he greeted him warmly: "Brother Qin, I heard that you are working in the Demon Division of Mianyuan County? There is a Baihu official under me who is also there. I work as an errand there, and I will introduce you to each other if I have the opportunity in the future, and maybe we can help and take care of each other."
"Thank you, Mr. Lu, for your kindness." Qin Shaoyou raised his hand and said, "When you meet your subordinate in the future, please help me say good things."
"no problem."
Lu Qian obviously didn't know that Feng Biao was dead, so he didn't hear the implication in Qin Shaoyou's words. He just thought that he was showing goodwill to him and agreed very readily.
Not only that, Lu Qian also extended an invitation.
"Brother Qin, do you have any plans next? If not, why don't you go to Chunfeng Tower with us to have fun?"
He had just seen Qin Shaoyou being taken away by Xu Huanyan, and he felt that although this person was seated relatively outside, it was worth visiting just because of this.
Maybe at some point, Qin Shaoyou will be able to soar into the sky under the care of King Shu.
For this kind of potential stock, showing goodwill in advance is definitely better than contacting afterward.
The officials around Lu Qian also invited:
"Master Qin, come together. This is also for Master Lu to practice."
"What kind of practice? It is clearly a wish for Mr. Lu to return victoriously and be promoted!"
Lu Qian was obviously happy after hearing these words, but he still pretended to say: "Those who are promoted or not are doing things for the prince and the court!"
It turned out that just now when the palace official was helping the King of Shu see off everyone, he specifically stopped Lu Qian and assigned him a task, saying that it was arranged by the King of Shu, and hinted that as long as he did it well, he would be promoted. Qianhu, a place in charge of thousands of households in one place.
However, facing the invitation from Lu Qian and others, Qin Shaoyou shook his head and refused: "I'd better not go. It's not that I don't want to enjoy flowers and tea with you adults. It's me who has committed crimes like brothels and sand dance houses. It’s a place where murders happen every time I go there, so I really don’t want to ruin your enjoyment.”
"Huh? Is there such a thing?"
Lu Qian and several officials around him were shocked. Some people were even unhappy with Mian Lou, thinking that he was not giving face and making up random excuses.
Qin Shaoyou sighed: "That's true, I don't dare to lie to you sirs. The last time I went to Zhoucheng, I encountered a case in which a famous prostitute in a brothel was seduced by the so-called evil god and turned into a monster. This caused the two Shangguan officials to fail to fulfill their duties. …”
Hearing Qin Shaoyou mention this case, several officials working in the city beside Lu Qian were immediately impressed. They all changed their faces. They also became more and more convinced of Qin Shaoyou's words. They all laughed and said:
"In that case, I won't take Brother Qin with me this time. Let's make an appointment next time at a restaurant."
"That's right, let's make an appointment next time. I'll make sure to make an appointment with Brother Qin next time."
Even Lu Qian didn't want to ruin his happy event because of Qin Shaoyou's murder in a brothel. He smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Qin, then we won't take you with us this time. Let me make it clear first that we don't dislike you, we just The king just held a banquet today, and it would be really bad if there was a murder in the city. Next time, when my brother and I come back from suppressing the bandits, I will set up a table in the best restaurant in the city and let's have a good meal... You always Isn’t it okay to commit suicide in a restaurant?”
No one wants to be interrupted by a murder case involving a monster while eating delicious food, singing songs, and hugging a beautiful woman.
At that time, it will no longer be a problem of not having enough fun, but it may also cause some unspeakable problems in certain functions of their bodies.
Lu Qian and others avoided Qin Shaoyou like they were hiding from a broom star.
However, what they didn't know was that the reason why Qin Shaoyou refused their invitation was not only because he was anxious to go back and record the various situations he detected in the palace today, but also because he didn't want to eat with someone who was about to die.
Just before, he overheard the secret conversation between the King of Shu and Xu Shenhuan and others, and learned that Lu Qian, who had just been valued and entrusted with important tasks by the King of Shu, and thought he was going to become a successful man, was actually going to be cut off like a leek... …
