Chapter 590: The First Consecration of Ghosts and Gods

“Boys and girls.” Xiao Yu did not get angry, but showed suspicion, “This Qin Chenghuang is indifferent to human life, neglects his duties, and is afraid of death.

But he is a human ghost, not a demon, so how can he eat people, and especially eat young boys and girls?”

She looked around at the ghosts and gods in the hall. On Qin Chenghuang’s face there was only hatred towards her, no other expression.

Some of the other ghosts and gods looked shocked, while others were as suspicious as she was.

There was also an inexplicable look on his face, and I didn’t know what he was thinking.

Judge Jiang Wen bowed again and said, “Master Prime Minister, although I don’t have any evidence, I can tell you the name and date of birth of the virgin he ate that year. Just use the Book of Life and Death to check. As long as you go to the underworld and find Master Chief Judge or the King of Hell, you will find out the truth.”

Xiaoyu glanced at Qin Chenghuang, who had his eyes closed and was pretending to be dead, not willing to argue.

“If there is a blood sacrifice, there must be someone who is sacrificing him. Who is sacrificing him?”

Jiang Wen said: “Two hundred years ago, the blood sacrifice I discovered took place in the south of Shu.

‘Tongling County’, Dingshan County, Xiaohe Village, close to the Ten Thousand Mountains in the south.

I remember it was September 27th, at sunset, it rained heavily and the sky was dark.

Qin Guang, the City God of Western Shu, transformed himself into a ‘red-haired ghost’, two meters tall, with red hair and bloody skin, horns on his head, a face like a yaksha, and a hideous and terrifying look, capable of scaring people to death.

He demanded that the villagers sacrifice a pair of boys and girls, otherwise he would eat them all.

Qin Guang was treacherous and cunning. He deliberately went to remote border mountain villages to eat people, thinking that he could do it without anyone noticing.

But he never expected that a villager in Xiaohe Village happened to be my former subordinate.

When I was alive, I assisted the Marquis of Jiyang and guarded the large mine in the south of Tongling County as a military supervisor.

‘Zhang Jiang’ from Xiaohe Village served as my ‘Jijilang’ when he was serving in the southern army.

He has great respect for me and I trust him.

After I got the position of judge, I once appeared in his dream and asked him to help me deal with some unfinished private matters during my lifetime.

When Xiaohe Village encountered the “Red-haired Ghost”, Zhang Jiang was already over sixty years old.

His granddaughter happened to draw the “red-headed lot” and had to offer a sacrifice to the Red-haired Ghost King that night.

He agreed on the surface, but secretly prayed to my little statue.

I responded to him immediately and rushed to Xiaohe Village, only to find that the Red-haired Ghost King was actually our City God. “

Jiang Wen’s description was so detailed, including names, places and times.

Although Xiaoyu was very confused as to why Qin Chenghuang wanted to eat people, he still believed it.

Moreover, Qin Chenghuang’s transformation into the “Red-haired Ghost King” was by no means an accidental act.

“Qin Guang, what do you have to say?”

Qin Chenghuang originally planned to continue to close his eyes and pretend to be dead, but as soon as Xiaoyu asked, he immediately sighed and said, “Forget it, what else is there to say now?

I thought you were just a figurehead, and faced with the evil, you valued your life and were unwilling to take the responsibility of protecting the country and the people.

I didn’t expect you to be a devil in human skin.

You yourself are a cannibal just like the demons, no wonder you have no reaction to the current demon plague in Western Shu.”

She left the master’s chair, walked to the steps, looked down at him coldly and said: “If you neglect your duties, I will only depose you from your position as the City God, and then send ghosts and gods to escort you to the underworld, and let the judge judge you.

Now that you have turned into a demon, this Prime Minister can only slay the demon, destroy your soul, chop off your head, and send it to the nine borders as a warning to others.”

“Qiang!”

After she finished speaking, she drew out the Qiao Shi sword. Before the sharp sword energy was swung out, it had already pierced Qin Chenghuang’s soul and made it tremble.

He opened his eyes and shouted in panic, “I am the City God. I did nothing wrong. You can’t kill me.”

“You’ve eaten people, and you’re not wrong?” Xiao Yu shouted angrily.

Qin Cheng Huang shouted excitedly: “I have guarded Xishu for a full 1,300 years, a full 1,300 years!

What does it matter if I only eat a few people every year? Even if I don’t eat them, won’t they die?”

Xiaoyu had already decided in her heart not to waste time on him anymore, after all, she didn’t have much time.

But what Qin Chenghuang said was too unbelievable, and it didn’t sound like something a normal person would say.

“Are you having a brain storm? Do you remember what ‘City God’ is?”

The literal meaning of “Chenghuang” is the guardian god of the city, and his duties are very clear.

“You are just an ordinary mortal who has only lived for twenty years. What do you know?” Qin Chenghuang had a complicated expression, including anger, memories, shame, sadness, pain, and a hint of confusion.

“I came to Western Shu 1,300 years ago, determined to protect the people of Shu and make Western Shu the paradise of the West.

Internally, I strive to educate the people, punish those who trample on ethics and morals, and commend those who practice the way of saints.

Use the retribution from the underworld to make people understand the principles of good and evil, cause and effect.

Externally, I will lead the ghosts and gods of Western Shu to eliminate all evil spirits and ghosts in the country, and vow to bring peace and prosperity to the world.

Ten years later, the situation in Western Shu seemed to have changed.

But a hundred years later, when I looked at Western Shu again, it seemed that nothing had changed. A thousand years later, guess what I discovered?
Hahahaha, I have been guarding Western Shu for a thousand years, but in the end it is no different from a thousand years ago.

The same number of people still die in vain every year, poverty, disease and famine still exist, the wicked have not become better, and the number of good people has not increased.

What if you are not harmed by the goblins? You will still be eaten by people.

So what if I eat a few people? Hasn’t Western Shu been like this for hundreds of years since I started eating people?”

Qin Chenghuang looked at Xiaoyu with a mocking look in his eyes, “You said I was derelict in my duty, but the duty of the Chenghuang is just to keep Xishu the same.

It can’t get better, but as long as it doesn’t get worse, I’m a qualified City God!”

Xiao Yu looked calm, but was very uneasy in her heart. She asked, “You are a human being, and you have no shortage of incense and offerings. Why do you want to eat people, and especially children?”

“Have you ever eaten humans? Humans are the best sacrifices, especially boys and girls. Their innate vitality has not yet dissipated. Eating men and women together can harmonize yin and yang, and it is very nutritious and tastes extremely delicious.”

As Qin Chenghuang was speaking, he smacked his lips a few times, and a look of aftertaste appeared on his face.

“You are also a human being!” Xiaoyu said angrily.

Qin Cheng Huang shouted, “No, I am a god, not a human.

The gods are immortal, and if they take a nap or are not paying attention, decades or even generations will pass by.

They are not even as good as the big trees on the mountains, which can grow for hundreds or thousands of years and are always growing.

People are like wheat in the field, crop after crop. Even if there is a disaster this year, with thousands of starving people and corpses lying everywhere, the gods will take a nap, and when they wake up, the village will become a place with crisscrossing paths, continuous houses, and flocks of chickens and dogs; the streets in the city will be crowded with people, noisy and bustling, a prosperous scene.

Even if one encounters a sage ruler and wise ministers, and ushered in a prosperous era, when the gods look back, the flowers have withered, the dynasty has fallen, chaos has broken out, bones have been exposed in the wild, and only one out of a hundred people has survived.

Isn’t it the same with the wheat in the field?
It flourishes in spring and summer, withers in the cold autumn, and is sown again in winter, and repeats the same process the next year.

We gods are scarecrows stuck in wheat fields to drive away birds.

Picking two grains of wheat to eat in the fall will neither affect this year’s harvest nor interfere with next year’s sowing.

You are the only one who is meddling in this matter.

Although you are a mortal, your spiritual practice is close to that of an immortal. You are no longer a ‘human’. How can you be so ignorant of current affairs? “

Xiao Yu first frowned and stared at Qin Chenghuang, then looked around at the ghosts and gods.

Some ghosts and gods are astonished, some are terrified, and some have flickering eyes.

“Is your City God always like this?” she asked.

They were stunned for a moment and shook their heads desperately, “The City God is probably having a hysterical episode today.”

“The City God is diligent in his work, loves his people, is strict in enforcing the law, and is selfless.”

Another ghost said hurriedly: “We are also conscientious in our daily lives and never dare to violate the laws of heaven and the underworld. It is even more impossible for us to pretend to be ghosts and eat people secretly.”

Xiao Yu looked down at Qin Cheng Huang and said, “I feel that destroying your soul right now would be like letting you go free, which is too easy for you.

Damn it, what you just said actually worked.”

“Puchi!” She lightly swung the sword and chopped off the “head of the divine body” of Qin Chenghuang.

“Roar~~” The Qiao Shi sword turned into a ten-foot-tall ferocious tiger.

He swallowed Qin Chenghuang’s headless corpse in one gulp, and the pure yang evil spirit burned like a raging flame.

“Awoo~~~” The shrill howl of Qin Chenghuang’s soul came from the belly of the ferocious tiger.

Xiaoyu bent down and picked up his head.

The divine body whose head was constructed by the power of incense was no longer maintained by the Yin God and was beginning to slowly dissipate.

Xiao Yu looked around and cast his gaze towards Jiang Wenpan, saying, “West Shu is suffering from a demon plague right now. This morning alone in Tianmen Town in East Shu, I slaughtered eight demon immortals and more than 150 great demons that had condensed demon pills.

Before noon, we went to Longtou Town and killed more than a hundred demon generals and servants.”

Jiang Wenpan’s eyes widened and he exclaimed, “How can there be so many goblins in my Western Shu?”

Xiao Yu said: “Time is very tight now, I am in a hurry to kill two ten thousand year old magic dragons, I don’t have time to explain to you.

I only ask you, I want to lead the ghosts and gods of West Shu and build a nationwide information network, are you willing to work for the people of West Shu?”

——In the morning, there were eight demons and hundreds of demons. Now they want to slay two dragons. Who is this prime minister? What happened in Xishu during the two hundred years I was imprisoned?

Jiang Wenpan was shocked and confused, and his attitude was even more respectful than before. He said, “Just to repay the Prime Minister’s kindness in saving me, I will go through fire and water without hesitation.

Moreover, now that the Prime Minister is trying to save the people of West Shu, how can I retreat?”

“Very good!” Xiao Yu shouted, “Jiang Wenpan, kneel down and listen to your order!”

Jiang Wen didn’t understand what she meant, but he still knelt obediently beneath her.

Xiaoyu spread out his right palm, and the Shinto talisman that was shining brightly appeared in his palm.

She then took off the “Prime Minister Seal” from her waist, grasped the seal with her left hand, controlled the dragon energy of Western Shu, and forcibly refined the dragon energy into the magic scroll, erasing Qin Guang’s spiritual will within it.

“This Prime Minister has appointed you as the ‘Fake Capital City God’.”

Very simple sentence.

“Snap!” The Shinto talisman in the right palm went directly into the top of Jiang Wenpan’s head.

With the experience of helping Black King Kong refine the River God’s talisman, Xiao Yu easily injected the City God’s talisman into Jiang Wenpan’s ghost.

Jiang Wenpan tilted his head back and stared at her blankly, his face full of disbelief.

The ghosts and gods around were almost shocked to drop their jaws.

“This is the City God’s Seal and the Book of Life and Death. Take them first. On the way, refine the divine seal first, and then use the City God’s divine power to refine the seal and the Book of Life and Death.”

Then, Xiao Yu turned to Li Gongcao and said, “You know how the City God was deposed today, so you should also understand my plan.”

Li Gongcao withdrew his envious gaze from Jiang Wenpan and nodded, “Little God understands.”

Xiao Yu said: “You should understand what I want Jiang Cheng Huang to do, right?
I appoint you as the deputy of the City God, and you can be considered as the ‘fake military judge’.

Assist him in building the ‘Western Shu Ghost and God Monitoring Network’ as soon as possible.

Starting from the southeast, I want to make sure that if the demon dragon approaches Xishu, you will know immediately and quickly send ghosts and gods to notify me. “

Li Gongcao showed a look of joy and said quickly: “Master Prime Minister, I will definitely complete the task.”

Xiao Yu helped Jiang Wenpan up from the ground, patted his shoulder, and sighed, “I understand that you have been imprisoned for two hundred years, and there are many things you don’t understand.

The situation is urgent now. You need to work first and then slowly understand the current situation.

Your job is not too difficult. You just need to use the authority of the City God as the Lord of the Earth to monitor the demons in the territory of West Shu.”

Judge Jiang Wen’s face changed several times, and he said in a hoarse voice: “Master Prime Minister, you deposed Qin Guang without authorization and appointed me as the City God. Can the Chief Judge of the Underworld allow this?”

Xiao Yu said calmly: “If the underworld wants to cause trouble, it will take a few days. The demon dragon may enter Xishu today.”

“If we kill the evil dragon, will you give an explanation to the underworld?” Jiang Wenpan asked.

Xiao Yu shook his head and said, “I, the Prime Minister, have a clear conscience, why would the underworld ask me to give an explanation?

When I have time, I will go to the underworld to ask for an explanation.

Qin Guang, a cannibalistic and derelict demon, was not dealt with for hundreds of years, bringing misery to millions of people in Western Shu!

Did the judge accept bribes and turn a blind eye, or was he incompetent and didn’t notice it?
Judge Zhang of Xisha Territory and Judge Hu of Liusha Territory must give me an explanation! ! “

“But–“

Before Jiang Cheng Huang could finish his words, Xiao Yu interrupted him again, “Alright, there are not so many buts! If anything really happens, I, as the prime minister, will be responsible.

Instead of dwelling on nonsense here, you should try your best to complete the task I assigned to you.

You have to understand that you are just a ‘fake city god’ now.

If you can’t do it to my satisfaction, there’s no need to worry about the underworld. I’ll destroy you first!”
