I played the world alone

Chapter 355 Are you sure? ([-]-in-[-])

Wang Yuanliang immediately stepped forward excitedly and bowed to greet him: "I've met Mr. Zhang!"

"Yesterday we saw your gentleman's elegant appearance in the Chenghuang Temple, and we were so impressed!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Tongsheng open his eyes, look at them with a calm expression, and then nodded slightly.

Wang Yuanliang was even more emotional.

Sure enough, this person is a person of noble character and unmoved by fame and fortune!
Others, even the county magistrate, must respect and even please them when meeting them.But this person was the only one who saw them as if he were an ordinary passerby, without any surprise or flattery.

This character alone is enough to show that this person is quite extraordinary!

The rest immediately asked the county magistrate to release them.

Magistrate Hu looked a little sad, but he still managed a smile and said: "This... the order in the court cannot be broken. No matter what, I will naturally give him justice!"

Even if he said that, it was just for the occasion. If he really dared to continue to make arbitrary penalties, Wang Yuanliang and others would not be polite to him.

……

On the other side, Cao Gui was sleeping soundly on the bed. Suddenly he heard a fierce knock on the door. He immediately scratched his belly, raised his head and shouted in a daze: "Damn, which one..."

Before he finished speaking, the door was kicked open.

His eyes suddenly widened and he said angrily: "Who?! My uncle who doesn't know me..."

But when he saw clearly that the people who broke in were the Yamen's police officers, he suddenly became mute.

"Brothers, why did you come to see me?" Boss Cao's attitude immediately softened, and the anger he had just woken up immediately disappeared, and he turned to a smile, "Did my uncle come to see me for something?"

"Do you guys still want to drink?"

However, several of the detectives did not give him a good look. They were not polite to him because of their relationship with the county magistrate. Instead, they kept a straight face and shouted impatiently.

"Get up quickly! The magistrate wants you to go over and try yesterday's case carefully!"

"Yesterday's case?" Boss Cao was stunned for a moment, "Isn't there already a result? How can you still..."

"Why don't you leave quickly! Do you still want us to tie you up?" Several of the detectives didn't bother to argue with him, they just glared and yelled angrily.

Boss Cao did not dare to delay any longer, so he quickly changed his clothes and followed the policemen towards the county government office.

When he rushed to the court, he saw his uncle talking to the people around him. His eyes lit up and he quickly shouted: "Uncle..."

He also wanted to use the other party's majesty to scare the police officers who were so rude to him just now, and let them know that his identity was not something they could easily control.

But just as he opened his mouth, he saw Magistrate Hu's expression suddenly change, and he glared at him angrily: "This is the court, not a place where you can have a relationship! Don't talk more about your little thoughts!"

Boss Cao was sprayed with saliva and was so frightened that he quickly shut up and did not dare to say any more.

I became more and more uneasy and puzzled. Why was my uncle so angry today? Could it be that he didn't sleep well yesterday?

Hu Fangde, on the other hand, wanted to curse this idiot in his heart.

"Why don't you even wink at all and just talk nonsense here? Doesn't that mean you don't leave a way out for me?"

At that moment, he also started to have a straight face and said coldly: "Okay, let's go to court! Today, I will come to re-examine yesterday's case."

"Someone, bring Zhang Hongrong here!"

……

Boss Cao had no idea that just one night later, the situation would suddenly be reversed.

Seeing his uncle on the stage staring at him coldly, he couldn't think of a reason even after racking his brains.

The trial of this case also came to an end very quickly.

Without any suspense, Zhang Tongsheng won and was acquitted on the spot.

However, Hu Fangde still cared for his nephew from the bottom of his heart. After releasing Zhang Tongsheng, he never mentioned the punishment of Boss Cao, as if he had completely forgotten about it.

Wang Yuanliang and others did not mention this matter again, Quan should save face for the other party.

Boss Cao finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he would not end up in jail.

I just glanced regretfully at Zhang Tongsheng, who was surrounded by a group of inexplicable people and left, and was unable to solve the problem at once.

But it's good luck to say the least.

He touched a few land deeds in his arms, feeling a little more at ease.

"That idiot didn't take the opportunity to raise the matter of the land deed. Did he really think that I would be afraid of him and then send him back obediently?"

He sneered, feeling that this person was indeed extremely stupid.

Not only is it impossible for me to pay it back, but I will also find ways to continue to solve this trouble!

"Come here quickly!"

While I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard my uncle's displeased shout. I ran over quickly, but as soon as I got close, I was kicked to the ground.

Although the opponent was old, fat and weak, it didn't hurt at all when kicked, but he didn't dare to fight back, so he could only pretend to be aggrieved, holding his stomach and wailing twice.

"Uncle! I am your grandnephew! Why do you..."

"Pooh!"

Hu Fangde cursed and spat, wishing he could go up and kick him again.

"If it weren't for you, how could I have gotten into such an inexplicable disaster!"

"Damn it, it's just a small fight over a few acres of land in the village, but those guys really took it seriously!"

The more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved.

I have been the county magistrate for so long, but I still have to be threatened by this group of people to do things!This is completely disrespectful of yourself!

"Humph!"

He walked straight out with a cold face.

"It's best not to give me a chance! Otherwise one day, sooner or later, I will kill you all! You will all regret what happened today!"

……

On the other side, Wang Yuanliang took Zhang Tongsheng directly back to the Wang family.

The descendants of the Wang family felt very strange about this strange person.

After all, the appearance of this thin scholar is really ordinary, and you can hit several of them if you just throw a brick outside.Why would my old man be interested in such a person?

Especially when I think of the rush to the county government office in the morning, I guess I wouldn't be so anxious if my grandson was caught!However, although they secretly complained, they did not dare to show any displeasure on their faces.

Because as soon as their old man came in, he scolded them to entertain Zhang Tongsheng well.He even compares him to his good brother, which is surprising.

"This, this, this," Mr. Wang's son looked confused and couldn't help but remind him in a low voice, "Dad! You brother, don't you think... the seniority is all messed up?"

He looked at Zhang Tongsheng, who looked like he was in his early twenties or early thirties at most. He was more than enough to be his son, and now he had become his father's good brother!

Absurd, simply absurd!

But Wang Yuanliang disagreed.

"Do you, a junior like you, have the right to speak here? Get out of here quickly and take out all the good tea leaves from the capital that I have collected!"

"I will definitely have a few drinks and chat with Mr. Zhang today!"

Seeing this, he really regards the other person as a confidant!

Everyone in the Wang family looked confused and looked at Zhang Tongsheng in front of them, trying to see what kind of magic power he had that could fool the old man into this.

But what surprised them even more was that the well-respected old gentlemen in the city also followed closely this morning, and their attitudes were even worse than Wang Yuanliang's!

If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, they might have wanted to become brothers with different surnames!
After everyone retreated, Wang Yongliang and others sat down in the yard.

While drinking good tea.While asking about Zhang Tongsheng's situation.

Although these things can be known by checking their identities, these things heard from others must be biased, and you have to ask yourself carefully.

Only after asking this question did I know that the lonely and arrogant poor scholar in the eyes of others was actually a noble person who was detached from the world and would not give up for five buckets of rice!
They couldn't help but feel more surprised and moved when they listened to some "model stories" casually told by each other, and they exchanged cups one after another.

After that, we talked about the contents of some poems and articles, and found that although this person did not understand the eight-legged essay in the imperial examination, he was quite proficient in poetry and songs, and he could easily get some good lines and fragments, which made him appreciate it even more.

Of course, they did not forget the real purpose of this invitation.

After uncovering the above topic, Wang Yuanliang stared at Zhang Hongrong and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Zhang. I heard that you already knew about the Chenghuang test yesterday afternoon, but is it true?"

Others immediately echoed: "Yes, yes, we want to know too."

"And I also heard that there is another amazing thing about you, that is, you are the evil official!" Another person immediately shouted loudly, "I heard that you died the night before yesterday, but you suddenly came back to life yesterday and were still alive. Call yourself a shady official?"

These things are really unbelievable.

If it were before, Wang Yuanliang's people would not believe it or even sneer at it.

What haven't they seen in all their life?

Most of them will just think that this is some young person who is using ghosts and gods to fool others, and what they want is nothing more than fame and fortune.

But now after yesterday’s test of the City God.No matter how ridiculous it is now, they can't help but believe it at this moment.

Not to mention, it still happened to the same candidate as last night!

Under the intense gaze of everyone, Zhang Tongsheng pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, this is indeed the case."

"On that day after I died, I was captured by Black and White and taken to the underworld. But when the Lord of Hell looked at my life and death book, he said that I had not yet expired and released me."

"As compensation, they promised me to become a ghost official and help the ghosts capture the souls of the mortal world. In addition, they also gave me the qualification to take the city god test."

"If I am really lucky enough to have the position of City God, I think this place will be more peaceful."

Wang Yuanliang and others couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when they thought that the person in front of them wanted to become a city god for the sake of peace here.

After all, they just hope that their fame will become even greater as they become immortals, and even be famous throughout the ages. After all, they are just thinking about themselves.

Then everyone chatted a lot.After all, many here are elderly people, so they are particularly concerned about the situation in the underworld.

As Zhang Tongsheng narrated, they were also surprised that legendary objects such as Guimen Pass, Huangquan Road, and Naihe Bridge actually existed!
And there are 18 levels of hell. Anyone who does evil in the world of hell will go there and be punished!
As they became more and more surprised, they were secretly trying to remember whether they had done anything evil in the past or was there any way to make up for it?

The chat was a bit absent-minded for a while.

Wait until noon.Wang Yuanliang invited his family to prepare a sumptuous lunch again.Naturally, several bottles of fine wine were prepared at the banquet to entertain them.

The Wang family and others couldn't help but secretly click their tongues.

The old man helped with the toast. I'm afraid the prefect would not receive such treatment even if he came, right?

Waiting for the afternoon.They all pretended to be calm and chatted and rested.

But from time to time, he would pay attention to the weather conditions outside, with a bit of anticipation and eagerness in his eyes.They all seem to be eagerly awaiting the final answer.

Wang Yuanliang suddenly asked: "Comrades, how confident are you?"

One person answered without thinking: "[-]%."

"Oh, so high. I only have [-]%."

"I'm about the same, maybe [-]%."

I saw them talking one after another.Wang Yuanliang himself said quite proudly: "I am quite satisfied with my answer. I have written a lot of content. If I become the city god, how will I manage the order of the local ghost world, etc. I am expected to win the list. The chance is only about [-]%."

Others looked envious, and some even stood up and clasped their fists in congratulations.

After all, Wang Yuanliang's identity and qualifications are here. It is said that even the emperor once asked him for a few words, which can be seen.

Even if he said that, he must be inseparable!
Finally, Wang Yuanliang looked at Zhang Tongsheng: "Mr. Zhang. What do you think?"

Zhang Tongsheng has been closing his eyes to rest his mind since just now.Hearing the question, he slowly opened his eyes: "It's probably just a five-and-a-half-year technique."

Wang Yuanliang breathed a sigh of relief and said modestly: "Oh, but it still depends on the judgment of the gods. It is not easy for us mortals to speculate at will."

Then he said again: "But no matter what, as long as any of you here get the position of City God, you must never forget to take care of me!"

"That's natural!" Others immediately agreed, "Mr. Wang. I'm afraid I will have to rely on you after I die."

"You see, becoming an immortal or a god is what the emperor dreams about."

"How many emperors in the past dynasties have been seeking immortality and refining elixirs, but now this opportunity is right in front of us, isn't it..."

Although they didn’t dare to say the following words, everyone understood the meaning and pursed their lips and smiled.

I just feel that even the impending death is no longer so scary.

After talking so freely, time finally came slowly to dusk.

Everyone's words gradually became less and less, and their expressions began to become a little nervous and even restless.

Although Wang Yuanliang was in his heart.Quite confident.But after all, it’s not [-]%, so I can’t help but feel a little flustered.

Finally, as the sun slowly set and the sky slowly turned dark, everyone suddenly heard a strange, slightly high-pitched shout coming from outside the wall, calling their names.
