I have a book of ghosts and gods

Chapter 375 Sitting on the Yellow River (seeking subscription monthly pass)

Mei Qingchen invited him to a banquet?
Jiang Zhou thought about it for less than a second, then found a random reason and asked the person who sent the post to reject it on his behalf.

He had no intention of flirting with anyone.

Moreover, don't look at him hanging the Dharma King in red at the door so decisively and in an almost humiliating way.

Now that he is really asked to go out, he is really a little scared.

A group of monks in red were waiting to settle accounts with him at the door.

Although Jiang Zhou is confident, he is not conceited.

Not long after entering Yangzhou, he met many unpredictable people one after another.

A king in red is not under him.

The old monk Kurong and the old fisherman were even more unfathomable, which made him completely confused.

There is also the Little Lantern Boy, although he is nothing to worry about, but there is a Denghua Granny, one of the Five Scattered Immortals, behind him.

Who knows how many masters there are in this temple?

So Jiang Zhou made up his mind to stay at home and not go anywhere until he figured out who was trying to trick him, or what was the reason for attracting these people.

But he didn't expect that after he refused, Mei Qingchen came to the door in the early morning of the next day just after midnight.

Jiang Zhou got the report, walked out of the room, and saw Ji Xuan leading Mei Qingchen in.

When entering the door, Mei Qingchen saw the red-clothed Dharma King hanging beside the gate, and his face twitched obviously and quickly a few times.

The Dharma King in red was kept at the door all day and night, and people watched him all day and night.

This guy is indeed strong in meditation, or thick-skinned enough.

Constantly being pointed at by others, but with a smile on his face.

From time to time, he laughed, scolded and played with the crowd of onlookers.

There are a lot fewer onlookers today, not because no one is interested, but because they were driven away by a group of red-clothed monks who rushed over.

This is a monk from Zunsheng Temple.

They came here last night, and all of them stared at Jiang Zhou's house with red eyes.

If it wasn't for the red robed Dharma King, he would have already rushed in.

They want to turn this madman's house upside down, find out that madman, hang him in front of Zunsheng Temple, and hang him for seven days and seven nights!
Of course, the reason why the red-clothed Dharma King stopped him was because he knew that there was only one result for them to go in--a few more human flags hanging at the door.

Mei Qingchen came in plainclothes, looked at many monks from Zunsheng Temple who were glaring at him with red eyes, and didn't want to provoke them.

With a dry cough, he walked quickly into the Jiang residence.

When he saw Jiang Zhou, he laughed again as if nothing had happened.

Jiang Zhou cut to the chase and said, "Master Sicheng, why are you free to come to the lower officials at this time? But what's the matter?"

"Hehehe, Jiang Shishi, you are really enjoying your life today."

"Recently, I heard that Jiang Shishi planted trees and opened canals at home. He is so leisurely and happy. He is really an official."

Mei Qingchen really showed envy on his face, and then sighed: "Recently, there are so many trivial matters in the department, it's rare for me to get away for a moment."

"It would be great if Jiang Shishi was willing to share one or two for this official."

Plant trees and open canals?
Jiang Zhou glanced at the three trees in his yard, as well as the several canals that brought water from Dongting Lake into the house for the formation of the formation.

The old man paid close attention to him.

He knows everything at home.

Jiang Zhou groaned in his heart, and said in his mouth: "Master Sicheng, do you have something important to tell the lower officials to do?"

It's too uncomfortable to talk about one sentence with all kinds of twists and turns.

"I don't dare to confess."

Mei Qingchen said hurriedly.

He has always looked amiable, but there is a faint sense of distance.

Now in the harmony, the distance is less, but a little more close.

"It's just that there are a lot of miscellaneous things in the department, especially the criminal proceedings, judgments, and legal documents. There are many rough warriors in the department. It's okay to fight and kill. Such things still require a man who is both civil and military like Jiang Shishi." Only people can,"

"Jiang Shishi has been resting for many days, should he go back to the department to deal with it?"

Hearing the words, Jiang Zhou pondered.

As soon as he made up his mind to hide at home, Mei Qingchen came to let him go out.

He couldn't help but suspect that this old boy wanted to harm him.

Mei Qingchen knew that Jiang Zhou was unwilling.

Then he glanced outside, and said seriously: "To tell the truth, what Jiang Shishi did this time was really impulsive."

"Oh? I also ask Mr. Si Cheng to give me advice."

Mei Qingchen obviously meant something.

"Oh, I'm also to blame for not telling Jiang Shishi."

Mei Qingchen sighed, and suddenly asked: "Jiang Shishi has been in Jiangdu for a while, what do you think of this place? How is it compared to Nanzhou?"

Jiang Zhou said sincerely: "Jiangdu is prosperous, Wu County is far behind, and it is quite prosperous. Although there are inevitably scars and scabies in the four fields outside the city, it is stronger than Nanzhou."

"To tell you the truth, before I came here, I heard that there were red-haired and Jingshi thieves in Kaizhou and Yangzhou prefectures. I thought that this place was affected by the flames of war, and I was afraid it would be chaotic. I didn't expect it to be so unexpected."

Mei Qingchen stroked his beard and smiled: "The person who said this to Jiang Shishi must be a literati from the Wu family?"

Jiang Zhou smiled and said nothing.

Mei Qingchen didn't ask any further questions, and said: "Jiang Shishi, Jiangdu, and even Yangzhou, are able to have today's peace. In fact, it is not due to the merits of one family, but because of the word 'rules'."

"rule?"

Mei Qingchen nodded and said, "That's right, the rules."

"Rules make a perfect circle, moments make a square, and the universe is square and round, not because of rules."

"To put it bluntly, this rule is actually just four words: each goes his own way."

"Officials have their own ways, and the people have their own ways. Officials, dignitaries, sects of practice, and rivers and lakes and green forests all follow the rules and follow their own ways. Today's Jiangdu and Yangzhou are here."

Mei Qingchen paused, looked at Jiang Zhou Surong and said, "I'm not afraid to say something rebellious. In Jiangdu, laws can be violated, and rules cannot be broken."

Jiang Zhou understood.

Having said so much, I'm afraid I just want to say that this Zunsheng Temple is also one of the "rules".

Mei Qingchen seemed to see through his thoughts at a glance, and said: "Jiang Shishi is a hero among the people, I must have guessed a little bit, but I'm afraid he didn't expect that Zunsheng Temple is not a 'rule', but this 'rule'. Said it came out because of Zunsheng Temple."

"Oh?"

"Ugh……"

Mei Qingchen sighed again, and asked: "Jiang Shishi, since you came from Wu County, you should be aware that something went wrong in Wu County's Su Jingsi Town Yaoshi?"

Jiang Zhou was slightly startled: "Yeah?"

Mei Qingchen nodded: "You have also seen the knife prison at the bottom of Dongting Lake. In fact, decades ago, the knife prison was not like this."

"As early as many years ago, the Sizhong had already discovered that there was a problem with the Demon Suppressing Stone, the formation of the Mingshen Eighteen Prisons was unstable, and the demons in the prisons were about to move, almost breaking out of the prison."

"I heard that Jiang Shishi put down the rebellion in Wu County Sword Prison. You should know the consequences."

"The monsters imprisoned in Jiangdu Sword Prison are a hundred times larger than those in Wu County. If they are really released from the prison, the consequences..."

Mei Qingchen shook his head, and continued: "Back then, at this critical juncture, it was Zunsheng Temple who took the initiative to cast the Great Prison at the bottom of the Dongting Lake with the Buddha's cursed gold, suppressed the demons in the Sword Prison, and solved the terrible disaster."

"Over the years, Zunsheng Temple has been more merciful to the world. In Jiangdu and even Yangzhou, from the princes and dignitaries to the rivers, lakes and green forests, there are very few people who have not received its favor."

Mei Qingchen looked serious: "Don't say anything else, just say that a holy monk in Zunsheng Temple, for many years, used his body to suppress the 'Yellow River Shuiling' for Yangzhou. Everyone in Yangzhou should be grateful for him. Ender."

Jiang Zhou asked a question: "Yellow River water mausoleum?"

"This Yellow River Shuiling, Jiang Shishi returned to Sizhong, so he can naturally know it from many files."

Mei Qingchen waved his hands and suddenly recited in a trance: "The waves are surging on the top of Xumi, and the turbid sea is burned. Sit down the Yellow River and hold the black tortoise in your hand. When the Buddha comes, he must beg for his life..."
