The metaphysicist, he only believes in science

Chapter 207
The grassroots city gods of the Thirteenth Road all presented their own performances, and by the time all the performances were over, it was already four o'clock in the morning.Next, start voting for the most popular shows.Unsurprisingly, the Peking Opera program presented by the City God of Qingning District won the undisputed top spot.

It also allowed the city god of Qingning District to get the [-] square meters of movable space he had dreamed of.

After receiving a purse-shaped space magic weapon from the Master of the City God, the City God of Qingning District was very excited, and finally bid farewell to the hard days of living with his wife and children.Woohoo, it's not easy.

Luo Guangming was also excited. If he won the leader in the festival he contributed, he would be able to have the chain of ecstasy. This is definitely the first one in the entire Taoist circle.Their masters and apprentices are not only Guangzong Yaozu—no, it should be Guangyao Shimen, they must shine in the circle, invincible, like a tiger with wings added.

The peers all congratulated Luo Guangming with envy and envy, and even Daoist Ming Yang was a little jealous, looking at Luo Guangming who was smiling so hard that his brows couldn't see his eyes, he became more sour.

What's the matter with the air, isn't it just relying on the sober adults in the world.Otherwise, whether or not Shangqing Temple invites you will have to be questioned.

Although Qi Jinhui also expressed his gratitude to Master Changkong for inviting them to participate in the Yin Yang Gala.But Daoist Ming Yang was still not in a good mood, and looked at the direction of the sober man, thinking sourly: Why didn't the sober man come and take care of me?I am also very young, I usually do not show filial piety to your old man?

After the awards were presented, Lord Chenghuang of Guodu and Lord Chenghuang of the capital came to the stage to give everyone a bloodbath, so that you can continue to work hard and create brilliance together.

"...The beginning of the new year, although our business ability has been greatly improved, and the error rate has been reduced year by year, which has steadily surpassed that of the other door. We need to calm our minds, guard against arrogance and impetuosity, and work steadily. I promised that if we continue to maintain stability this year, we will give away [-] square meters of mobile space next year. Whether we can continue to improve our lives and living environment depends on our joint efforts." Master Du Chenghuang's fighting skills are not very good, but the two hundred square meters of moving space still makes everyone excited.They all expressed that they must continue to work hard to create brilliance together.

Lao Cao applauded and whispered in Lin Yi's ear: "Our Lord City God is greedy enough. I heard that he was rewarded with 300 square meters of moving space. He is good enough to be greedy for so much."

Lin Yi thought silently, it's not bad for only [-] square meters of ink, it's better than nothing, and it's all corrupted.

However, it is still inconceivable to imagine that the majestic city god of the third-rank capital can only live in a "shanty town" like the ordinary people at the bottom.Human beings no longer believe in worshiping the city gods, and even the temples have been demolished. The city gods have no place to work, or even a place to live. They can only rely on their superiors to provide "space".

The county magistrates in Yangjian all live in luxury houses, have drivers to pick them up when they go in and out, and have secretaries to run errands. The county magistrate in the underworld is like this, and there is no one.The majestic City God, the treatment of high-ranking officials, that is, the residence of three bedrooms and one living room, the contrast is too great.

Lin Yi suddenly thought of an important question, so he asked Lao Cao: "What about you, where do you usually live?"

Lao Cao replied: "The City God of the capital."

"Where can you live in a place that is bigger than the palm of the city god? Are there other impermanent warriors, generals and soldiers? Do they all live in space?"

The Capital City God is a high-ranking official at a normal level. He is in charge of the entire capital and maintains law and order in the underworld of the capital. He has a high position and authority.Although Lin Yi is the inspector of the City God, he has never even been to the office area of ​​the City God.Therefore, it is not clear whether the residential area of ​​Lao Cao and other ghosts is as pitiful as those of the district city gods, who can only have a private space the size of a palm.

Lao Cao said with some pride: "I used to live in dormitories, a 120-square-meter room with 200 bunk beds and [-] cm wide beds. I have lived in such a dormitory for [-] years. That is I have been promoted in recent years, and I have been assigned to a single dormitory, with one bedroom and one living room, with a space of [-] square meters. Compared with other wrestlers, Yin generals are not bad. Jiang Chao is of the same level as me, and there are five members of his family. It's only [-] square meters of space."

"Old Zhang, that is, your former captain. He usually looks majestic, but he actually lives in the dormitory. It's just a double room, and he lives in a space of ten square meters with the deputy captain."

It sounds like Lao Cao is still in trouble.

As for other impermanence, even the captain of the sixth-rank Ecstasy like Zhang Ran can only squeeze into a small ten-square-meter single room with the deputy captain.

I didn't expect the impermanence's housing treatment to be so poor.Lin Yi was stunned, and quickly asked: "What about me, if I want to live in the National Town God's Temple in the future, how much space can I allocate?"

Lao Cao was stopped by the question, and thought for a while: "I don't know very well about this. But according to your grade, you should not be lower than me, at least forty square meters."

He looked him up and down again, "But you won't be too bad. After all, there are people under you, and they are the priests of the fourth rank. The living environment will definitely not be too bad."

Lin Yi secretly thought, the living environment in the underworld is so tense, should I plan ahead?
Imagining that I have eight mobile spaces of [-] square meters, I feel relieved, no matter whether it is in the world or in the world, I will not worry about living in it.

……

It wasn't until five o'clock in the morning that the old ghosts stretched their waists and left Shangqing Temple one after another.Master Changkong led all the fellow Taoists to welcome you adults, not only presented a lot of paper money, but also a gold ingot.

Lin Yi also had a gold ingot and a lot of paper money, but he was the owner of the money, so he handed it to Lao Cao casually.

Lao Cao's grimace turned into a chrysanthemum.

The rest of the eyes shot over, with different expressions.

Lin Yi calmly presented the gold ingots to Lord Chenghuang, saying: "I haven't prepared a New Year's gift to Lord yet, I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha."

A gold ingot can be worth tens of thousands of bills.The Lord Chenghuang of the State then smiled happily, took the gold ingot, and smiled at the Lord Capital City God: "It's been ten years since he was sober and didn't love money." Whose lord's son is such a rich ghost? ?Haven't heard it yet.

The Taoists thought: Sober adults regard money as dung, and don't know how thick the coffin is?

Leaving Shangqing Temple, Lin Yi heard ghosts crying and howling wolves. It was vaguely a ghost that was imprisoned by impermanence but refused to leave, and was being cleaned up by impermanence.It was windy and cold at night, Lord Duchenghuang was not interested in these things, so he got on the sedan chair and left.

The rest of the city gods, the ghost soldiers and ghost generals, followed suit.

And the crying ghost is none other than Li Guowei.

He was hiding in the car just now, and was discovered by Wuchang who hid in the car to avoid the cold, so he detained his soul, saying that he would be taken back to the Chenghuang Temple and held for three days, so that his living soul would completely become a dead soul before he would be released. he leaves.

Li Guowei usually understands the process after death.He believed in these the most in the whole family, and his family didn't believe in them at all. Once he really died, they would definitely not ask Taoist priests to help him cross over. At that time, he would really become a lonely ghost.He heard that the life of lonely souls and wild ghosts was difficult, so he didn't want to live like that.In the Yangjian, he has clothes, hands, food, and mouth, and the money he earns is easy, so he doesn't want to live a life of starvation and cold.So I didn't care about being afraid anymore, and started working with impermanence.

Of course, there was no shortage of beatings.No, when Lin Yi stopped Wuchang's beating action, Li Guowei was beaten beyond recognition.

Seeing that the sober adults in the world interfered with this matter, Wuchang didn't dare to be good at it, so he specially explained: "The younger one has seen the sober adults, and the younger one is Wuchang, the city god of the Eastern District. This person is called Li Guowei, who has been hiding in the car and watched secretly just now. We found out. The little one arrested his soul according to the laws of the underworld, and prepared to take him to the Temple of the City God. This kid refused to go, he was playing tricks here, and even scolded us. We were so angry that we couldn't help it. .”

Lin Yi knew how vicious impermanence is to the souls of the dead, so he asked Li Guowei: "Today, the Shangqing Temple closed its doors to thank visitors, and set up a warning three miles away. Why do you still park there?"

It stands to reason that this person's car must not be able to drive in.

Li Guowei looked carefully at the sobriety in the world, and saw that this person was wearing a four-ringed hat, and his face was not as eerie as other impermanences, but his facial features were handsome and his bearing was extraordinary.Wearing a black cloak, hanging a golden stick.Wuchang also respected him, and thought he was a high official from the underworld, so they boldly said: "My lord, forgive me, I... the car is parked here during the day, and I will drive at night..."

"You are lying." Wuchang sternly said, "I heard the Taoist priests of Shangqingguan said that the one who overtook you was you who insisted on not leaving, so they no longer care about you."

Li Guowei explained weakly: "My car has been parked here during the day. Although I insist on not leaving, I have been staying in the car and I have not hindered you. Why should I hold my soul , am I not convinced?"

Impermanence said miserably: "The law of the underworld, all Yang people who see the impermanent will have their souls arrested. It is your own bad luck to blame."

Li Guowei is also very eloquent, and immediately retorted: "Do you think I want to see you? It is obvious that you trespassed in my car."

"You..." Wuchang panicked, but Li Guowei was not a vegetarian either. He took out his usual acrimony and sharp tongue as a platform entertainment reporter, and said to Lin Yi, "My lord, please be clear. Let's go, but I stayed in the car and didn't go anywhere. I just slept in the car, and it didn't hinder my sleep. But they got into my car privately, saying that it was cold outside and didn't want to patrol , wanting to hide in my car to avoid the cold, isn’t this negligence or what is it?”

Impermanence: "..."

Li Guowei said again: "It's obvious that they broke into my car and occupied my cab. Seeing that they didn't mean it, but now they want to arrest my soul, I just don't accept it, a hundred times."

"You scumbag, you still want to deny it." Wuchang was so angry that he beat him up, but was stopped by Lao Cao, "Okay, you are still justified in dereliction of duty? Let him go quickly."

"But my lord..."

Lin Yi said: "Let him go. It's not a big deal. If you really want to compare the truth, you are also at fault."

Impermanence stopped talking, they originally wanted to make some profit from it.

Lin Yi's eyes sharpened: "Master Yang has issued repeated orders, and the law must be enforced fairly and in accordance with the law. You are at fault for trespassing in other people's cars. Do you really want me to report to Master Yang?"

In the end, Li Guowei was released and thanked Lin Yihao a thousand times.

Lin Yi also knew the hard work of impermanence at the bottom, so he stayed here tonight in the severe cold to receive the souls who had been crossed. It is normal to have resentment in his heart. All share.

Although it is divided equally, the money is not much, at least it is an extra income, and the Wuchang Yin soldiers are even more grateful to the sober adults by 1000 million.I feel that it is more precious than the year-end welfare issued by the Lord Chenghuang.

Lin Yi also patted the ghost guard who detained Li Guowei on the shoulder: "You grassroots impermanence is really hard work, but no matter how hard you work, you have to do your best and don't harass human beings. It's just a big New Year's Eve, that's all. It's easy, but you have to pay attention in the future. After all, the job is not easy, if you lose your job or even be punished for such a small mistake, it's not worth it."

Lin Yi's words covered everything. He gave the other party a step down, acknowledged their hard work, warned them, and got a red envelope. mistake.

Lao Cao waved his hands and said, "Have you completed the mission?"

"If you go back to Mr. Cao, the task has been completed." Wuchang hurriedly replied.

"Well, then hurry back and return to life."

The impermanence left with thanks to Lin Yi and Lao Cao.

Lao Cao said to Lin Yi: "Remember to bring me a few more gold ingots." Just now he took out all the money on his body to help him buy Guixin.

Lin Yi said: "I know, you are indispensable."

Lao Cao said again: "You are quite good at being a ghost. You are just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha offerings." Although the Taoist priests of the Qing Dynasty gave them a lot of money, there are so many low-level impermanence, evenly divided, it is not much.But these ghosts are still grateful to Lin Yi, and the District City God who gave them a month's salary as year-end benefits has not yet received such impermanent gratitude.And Lin Yi didn't do anything, just move his mouth.

Lin Yi smiled, and punched him on the shoulder: "We are eating, drinking and having fun inside, but they are suffering from hunger and hunger outside. With a condescending face, wouldn't it be hatred? Give them some benefits, and let them If there is no resentment, I will work harder in the future, so why not do it?"

If Dongyue Yinsi wants to catch up with the opponent, he has to start with "ghost governance".If you train the ghosts below, wouldn't you get twice the result with half the effort?A blindly high-pressure policy is not advisable, and a corresponding reward system is required.

……

When I got home, it was already the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year. There were several missed calls from my phone that was not turned off. I called them one by one according to the priority.

Lin Yi doesn't have many friends in the capital, only Lao Sun, Liu Quan, and Pang Haidong are the ones who often keep in touch with each other by phone. Most of his classmates contact him on WeChat.But yesterday, the only one Weiyi called him was Lao Sun.

Looking at Lao Sun's head, Lin Yi's heart warmed up. In the vast world, there is a vast sea of ​​people. He and Lao Sun have no relatives or reasons, and there is only a little teacher-student friendship, but the relationship between them is better than relatives.
