Yang Lin thought about the incense of the 700,000 people in Jiangzhou, his smile became more friendly, and he got to know the senior officials of Jiangzhou who came to greet them one by one.
That is, the actual person in charge.
Jiangzhou Farewell Chen Gongli is a short old man with a long beard. He looks kind and honest, but he is a little confused. He keeps saying that the number one scholar is as brave as jade, there are few wizards, and Jiangzhou will be peaceful from now on.
Dong Weihe, the chief historian, does not say such flattery. He is in his forties and has the character and arrogance of a scholar. However, he likes to drop his book bag, always talks about Confucius and Mencius, and occasionally comments on Zhihu, which gives Yang Lin a headache. .
Chen Lin, the state Sima, is a suave man. He is dressed in fine clothes and smells of makeup and perfume. He seems to be a man who is nostalgic for flowers and doesn't care about business.
Listening to their words, Yang Lin seemed to recognize this person's talent in writing and poetry, and didn't care much about his dissolute behavior.
Anyway, Sima is just a wandering patrolman. Although he has a high status, he really has nothing serious to do.
You can get by by reciting poems and performing tricks.
What he really values is the chief officer of the three counties.
Needless to say, Wu Yingshan, the governor of Xunyang County, was a military attaché. He had big arms and a round waist, and a big beard, just like Zhang Fei.
Perhaps because he was a warrior, when he felt the force of Li Qing and Li Biao who were accompanying Yang Lin, and when he saw the eight hundred heroic guards, his attitude was very low.
All he had to do was kneel down to welcome the governor as he settled in.
As for the magistrates of Pengze and Duchang counties, they are almost like down-and-out literati. Although their clothes are not bad, they all look like they are aggrieved and worried about the death of their parents.
Yang Lin knew it without asking.
Under the rule of these two counties, the people must be in poverty and demons are in chaos.
Judging from their trembling appearance, on the one hand, they were afraid of being held accountable, and on the other hand, they were worried that they would not be able to cope with the dangerous situation.
After the greetings, the first person was Wei Yuan, the magistrate of Pengze County. He knelt down with a bang and said with tears in his eyes: "I have been waiting for you to be the governor for a long time. Now the Pengze monster eats people. Fish and shrimps cross the border in ten and a half months..." …
The common people are afraid of its ferocious power and sacrifice blood to the demons from time to time. They have stopped farming and have no food and clothing. They hope that the governor can send troops to destroy the demons and save the people from the fire. "
Zhang Hanshui, the magistrate of Duchang County, was hesitant and had a sad expression on his face. He also knelt down and said, "The lower officials are guilty. The ghosts in Duchang have hurt people, so that the people did not dare to go out during the day, let alone give birth.
At night, hundreds of ghosts are walking at night, and the county is like a ghostland. The lower officials are at a loss what to do. I have written to the Demon Slayer Department a few days ago to report this matter. For some reason, no one has ignored it. I also asked the governor to consider it for the sake of the innocence of the people. , destroy ghosts and save people as soon as possible. "
"Master Wei, Master Zhang, how dare you be so rude?"
Dong Weihe, the chief historian, looked very ugly as he listened to the two men talking and scolded them.
"The Governor has come a long way and has not settled down yet, so he is being pressured to kill demons. Is this really unreasonable?
It seems to me that you are incompetent in governance and have caused public dissatisfaction. That is why you have caused this disaster. Instead of thinking about your own faults, you have instead blamed evil spirits. It is really an unforgivable crime. "
This man seemed to be a civil servant. At this time, he became angry and turned out to be righteous and murderous. When he spoke, cold sweat broke out on the faces of the two county magistrates.
Only then did they realize that there was indeed something wrong with this trip.
However, because the bitter demon ghost has been around for a long time, I lost my sense of proportion for a while.
I was so impatient that I started asking for help directly in public.
It seems that during the period when Jiangzhou was without an owner, the chief historian, Dong Weihe, had been in charge of political affairs and suppressed the matter.
Pengze and Duchang counties both begged at the same time, but they may not have the intention of poking holes and setting up rice seedlings. Didn't you see that in the houses and residences in all directions, there were shivering and timid people secretly watching?
When the two county magistrates said this, they not only dismissed the general Shi Dongwei and Yijun, but also said that he did not do business when he was in charge.
Yang Lin, who had just entered Jiangzhou for the first time, was also put on the stove to roast.
If you don't agree at this time, let alone believe in telekinesis.
I'm afraid he will immediately become the representative of the corpse-position vegetarian meal.
Rumors immediately spread among the people that the person here was a faint official who was in cahoots with Dong Changshi and had no regard for the lives of the people.
Then do he still need his cultivation qualifications?
Yang Lin glanced out of the corner of his eyes and saw the panic and numbness on the faces of the people. He thought that the Tang Dynasty in this world seemed a little different from that in history.
No wonder, traveling westward to seek Buddhist scriptures is an inevitable trend, just like a flood that is unstoppable.
Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty even invited the later Tang Monk to become his brother, saying, "I would rather care about my hometown for a piece of soil than love a foreign country for ten thousand taels of gold." These words were so sincere and worrying.
In any action, put aside the appearance and look at the essence.
Perhaps traveling westward was not only of great benefit to Buddhism, but also to the Tang Dynasty.
Because when demons cause chaos, people's minds change.
Datang urgently needs to solve these serious problems.
The result of not burning incense on a daily basis is that there are no practitioners to slay demons.
Now we see the consequences.
"etc……"
Is this God's will?
Or man-made?
Yang Lin looked at the two county magistrates with something wrong in his eyes.
If it is God's will, everything is a coincidence, but if it is man-made, I, the Lord of Jiangzhou, may not be so secure.
You may lose your reputation and become a puppet official. After more than ten years, wouldn't it be perfect if you stab him head on? The people will be happy, the court will be satisfied, and the Buddhists, including Tang Monk, will be even more satisfied.
As soon as his thoughts changed, Yang Lin's expression became compassionate. He sighed, stretched out his hand to stop Dong Changshi from continuing to show off his power, and said warmly: "It's really commendable that you two are worried about the people. Although there are some rudenesses, it doesn't hurt.
On the contrary, the crisis in the two counties needs to be resolved immediately. Li Biao, Li Qing, and you, each with three hundred personal guards, rush to the two counties to find out the matter and kill the culprit. "
"Here..."
The two took orders.
Without any delay, he took the two county magistrates and left the city directly.
After handling the matter, Yang Lin stopped asking questions and directly ordered to settle in the Governor's Mansion first.
Not far ahead, we arrived at a large house that occupied an extremely large area.
The red door is hidden, and you can see the flowing water, wine cups, pavilions and arched walls inside, which looks very luxurious.
However, when Yang Lin mentally inspected it, he was surprised to find that there was no one inside. It was deserted and deserted. The ground was covered with leaves and dust. It seemed that there had been no trace of human beings for a long time.
"This is not normal."
He suddenly stopped, turned around and asked with a half-smile: "The house has been vacant for a long time, right? After the former governor died of illness, no one will take care of the governor's house?"
Don't drive Chen Gongli swaying, salute and say: "After the former governor Zhao became ill, he said that the house was unknown, and also claimed that he would abandon his official position. After a while, he invited a Taoist priest again and said that he wanted to change the buildings in the palace.
But for some reason, the matter went undisturbed. Later, after Mr. Zhao died of illness, his wife and family left in a hurry and never came back. "
What this means is that there is something evil at work in the house.
Dong Weihe smiled slightly and said with a slight sarcasm: "Master Zhao may be worried about the situation in the three counties and cannot sleep at night, so he is sick. The Governor's Office, with me suppressing the national destiny of the Tang Dynasty, how can any evil spirit dare to invade?
It was not cleaned, just because the Zhao family was in a hurry to leave, and they didn't give any instructions. After all, it is a government office. Even if the door is half open, we dare not send anyone to disturb it, for fear of violating the rules. "
He changed his voice and added: "The Governor has won the first prize and is favored by our Emperor. He is justified. He should be able to stay in the Governor's Mansion without any hidden dangers."
However, Chen Lin, the Sima of Jiangzhou, seemed to be in a distant place and ignored the words of Chen Gongli and Dong Weihe. He didn't know what he was thinking.
The county guard, Wu Yingshan, had a respectful expression on his face, his hands hanging by his sides, and his expression as if he was waiting for orders.
"Is that so?"
Yang Lin smiled slightly and ordered: "Capture Biejia and Chang Shi and put them in prison. I will wait for a night's rest before interrogating them again."
"this……"
Dong Weihe looked shocked, and Chen Gongli also looked horrified. The soldiers behind Yang Lin rushed up, tied him up and dragged him down.
