People are among the Eight Immortals, starting from Painted Skin Ghost

Chapter 114 Er Nai Guan Sheng Emperor, Dongyue Great Protector; Examination of City God!
This judge is divided into civil and military.

Judge Wen has the duty of prolonging the life of the good and letting the evil return to Yin.

Judge Wu, on the other hand, has the duties of punishing evil and vicious people, and prosecuting evil spirits.

Qiao Zhaoxi, the ancestor of the Qiao family, served as a civil judge in the city god of Jizhou, and belonged to the Department of Yin Law.

He is directly under the management of the City God of Jizhou, so he is on the same level as the head of the department, and he is an eighth-rank ghost fairy.

It is said that when the Jizhou City God approached the little ghost and was ordered to go to the Department of Yin Law to look for him, Qiao Zhaoxi was wearing a green robe, holding a book of good and evil, and was interrogating the dead with several ghosts.

Qiao Zhaoxi was puzzled when he suddenly heard the summon from the City God.

But he still hurriedly got up and followed the kid to the main hall.

As soon as he entered the main hall, Qiao Zhaoxi hurriedly saluted the Jizhou City God who was sitting on the upper seat:
"I have seen Lord Chenghuang."

"Judge Qiao, there is no need to be too polite. I summoned you because someone wanted to see you."

Jizhou City God waved his hand and said.

"Someone wants to see me?"

Hearing this, Qiao Zhaoxi was taken aback.

It was only later that he realized that there were other people in the hall.

He stared, but there was a beautiful Taoist and a demon standing not far away.

However, when Qiao Zhaoxi saw the ghost, his body trembled involuntarily.

Especially when he saw Yu Shu's affectionate eyes, Qiao Zhaoxi froze for a moment.

"Shu'er?"

He subconsciously read softly.

Qiao Zhaoxi never thought that he would meet Yu Shu here!

As for Yu Shu, Qiao Zhaoxi remembers that the last time they met was in Nanji Mountain.

……

That year, late spring.

In Nanji Mountain, it is a beautiful scene.

Outside the thatched cottage, Qiao Zhaoxi watched the beautiful figure go away, couldn't help looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, and said worriedly:
"Shu'er, have you really decided?"

"Although I am not one of your practitioners, I also know that your trip is bound to be extremely dangerous."

"If I fail, can I see you again?"

Yu Shu smiled and said, "Qiao Lang, I have made up my mind to abandon this half-celestial body and become a mortal, just to be by your side forever."

Qiao Zhaoxi had mixed feelings and asked:

"Then how long should I wait for you?"

Yu Shu replied, "Seven days at the fastest, half a month at the slowest."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at Nanji Mountain for half a month."

Qiao Zhaoxi didn't want to leave, so he decided to live in Nanji Mountain.

Hearing this, Yu Shu didn't say anything.

Just looking at him deeply, he resolutely walked into the deep mountain.

But to Qiao Zhaoxi's surprise, Yu Shu did not show up after seven days.

During this period, he waited anxiously for half a month, but still did not see Yu Shu.

Involuntarily, Qiao Zhaoxi panicked. He began to walk all over Nanji Mountain every day, just to find Yu Shu.

Half a month is not enough, then ten months!
If it doesn't work for ten months, then half a year!
One load!
Three years!

Five years!

Eight years!

Over the years, Qiao Zhaoxi has visited Nanji Mountain many times and found many peach trees on the mountain, but he still couldn't find Yu Shu.

At that time, he was not young, and his parents were already old.

In desperation, Qiao Zhaoxi had to marry a woman he didn't love.

After getting married, Qiao Zhaoxi was depressed all day long and drank to relieve his worries.

He didn't know what happened to Yu Shu?
Are they still alive.

Until the matter of death, I still think about it in my heart.

It can be said that this matter has become a knot in his heart.

"Qiao Lang, is that you?"

the other side.

Hearing this familiar yet unfamiliar voice, Yu Shu felt as if it was yesterday. She was not sure, fearing that everything was an illusion, so she could only ask in a low voice.

"It's me, Shu'er."

Qiao Zhaoxi replied with reddish eyes.

For some reason, Qiao Zhaoxi's heart was filled with soreness when he saw that there was only a wisp of soul left in Yu Shu, and the corners of his eyes seemed to be getting wet.

When he couldn't find Yu Shu, he once resented her and suspected her.

But when he actually met Yu Shu, Qiao Zhaoxi had already let go of everything.

She refused to show up back then, so there must have been some unspeakable secrets.

……

At this moment, the Jizhou City God and Han Xiangzi saw this situation and did not bother them.

Knowing that the two met after 200 years, they must exchange warm greetings.

The two of them will only disturb here.

Thinking of this, the Jizhou City God simply moved and disappeared into the hall in an instant.

Similarly, Han Xiangzi also took the opportunity to leave.

"Shu'er, where have you been all these years?"

"Do you know that I have been searching for half my life in Nanji Mountain?"

Qiao Zhaoxi looked at Yu Shu and asked with a frown.

This question has troubled him for more than 200 years. Now that he sees Yu Shu again, he naturally wants to know the truth.

"Qiao Lang, when I failed to transform into a mortal, my spirit was severely damaged and I fell into a deep sleep."

"If Daoist Han hadn't awakened you this time, I'm afraid it's really going to be exhausted."

Yu Shu heard the words and explained.

After finishing speaking, when she was about to introduce Han Xiangzi to Qiao Zhaoxi, she realized that he had disappeared.

Even the city god of Jizhou disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Qiao Zhaoxi and Yu Shu couldn't help but look at each other, and then smiled.

It seems that the two of them got carried away before, even the City God of Jizhou and Han Xiangzi left without realizing it...

But said.

After the Jizhou City God and Han Xiangzi left the hall, the Jizhou City God turned into an old pedant, and accompanied Han Xiangzi out of the City God Temple and came to Jizhou City.

The two of them were walking in the night market, but they saw colorful lights and crowds all around, it was very lively.

At that time, the curfew in Jizhou had not yet started, and there were many teahouses, restaurants, and stalls in the city.

Han Xiangzi wandered around with the Jizhou City God for a while.

The latter led him and strolled to a restaurant to stop.

Han Xiangzi looked up and saw the three characters "Yunxianju" engraved on the plaque of the restaurant.

"This Yunxianju is very popular in Jizhou City. When I have free time, I will come here to sit."

"Daozhang Han came to Jizhou today, and he came here to clean up the dust for you."

Jizhou City God laughed with Han Xiangzi before entering the door.

"Thank you, Lord Chenghuang, for your love."

Hearing this, Han Xiangzi hurriedly said.

He came to Jizhou to bring Yu Shu to see Judge Qiao.

He was already a bit of a bother to the Jizhou City God, but now he held a banquet for him, which really flattered Han Xiangzi.

"It's okay, for Binshan Gong's sake, it should be so."

Jizhou City God laughed disapprovingly.

Nabin Monkey intends to make friends with Han Xiangzi, so he is naturally willing to go along with the flow and sell his favors.

Done.

Jizhou City God walked into this Yunxianju.

Seeing the Jizhou City God coming here, the servant of the restaurant immediately greeted him with a smile, and asked very warmly:

"Mr. Dong, what do you want to eat when you come here tonight?"

"Come here for the Jizhou water banquet."

"Is my box still there?"

Jizhou City God Road.

Immediately, he asked again.

"Of course I keep it for Mr. Dong."

The young man readily agreed, and then called a servant girl to entertain Han Xiangzi and him.

As for himself, he went to the back kitchen.

Han Xiangzi watched from the side to see the situation.

I think what Jizhou City God said is right, he often comes to this Yunxianju, and he seems to be very familiar with the store.

After being taken to the box by the maid and sat down, the Jizhou City God and Han Xiangzi sat facing each other.

Not long after, the maid came back and brought some snacks and drinks.

Jizhou City God is not fond of drinks, but is keen on drinking tea.

While drinking tea, he looked at the lights of thousands of houses outside the window, and suddenly asked Han Xiangzi leisurely:
"Han Daochang, how did you know Bin Shangong?"

"It's a long story."

Han Xiangzi said.

Immediately, he talked with the City God of Jizhou:
"When it comes to this matter, I have to talk about Qiao Chang, the descendant of Judgment Qiao, and He Yin, a disciple of the Hundred Flowers Sect in my Taoist sect..."

"During the period, Pindao went to the Earth Temple in Daizhou, and asked Bin Shangong for guidance. He came and went, but he became familiar with it."

"If it wasn't for Bin Shan Gong's help, I'm afraid it would be difficult for Pindao to find out He Yin's whereabouts in this way."

At that moment, Han Xiangzi informed the City God of Jizhou all the ins and outs of Qiao Chang in Jizhou and Heyin of Baihua School.

Of course, he also highlighted the help that Monkey Nabin gave him.

This is not a flattery or exaggeration, but a fact!

"Unexpectedly, this happened to Judge Qiao's family. First, Judge Qiao and the peach demon Yu Shu who Daoist Han said could not fall in love, and then his descendant Qiao Chang and the female crown Heyin of the Hundred Flowers School went through this catastrophe. This reincarnation of cause and effect is really mysterious. "

After hearing this, the City God of Jizhou was quite astonished and let out a long sigh.

Suddenly, Han Xiangzi straightened his face and said:

"Speaking of this peach demon Yu Shu, I want to ask the City God to rescue me if I have something to do."

"Are you asking the City God to shape her soul so that she can become a Yin master?"

After the words fell, the Jizhou City God had already guessed Han Xiangzi's request.

"I really can't hide it from Lord Chenghuang..."

Han Xiangzi smiled wryly.

Now that Yu Shu has met Judge Qiao, the two must be together and do not want to be separated.

But now, Yu Shu only has a wisp of spirit left, which is destined to be difficult to last for a long time.

If you want to survive, the only way is to follow the path of a Yin master like Bai Hongying.

But Yu Shu's soul is not complete, and it is difficult for her to practice this method alone.

But if there is Jizhou City God to help, then there will be no such worries.

"I don't know what Lord Chenghuang thinks?"

Han Xiangzi asked with a cheeky face.

"Not a problem."

"Even if Daoist Han doesn't say anything, Judge Qiao will come to intercede."

Jizhou City God laughed.

While the two were laughing and chatting, the young servant brought out plates of delicacies.

After a while, the entire table was filled.

Wine was also brought.

For this reason, the Jizhou City God was not polite, greeted Han Xiangzi, and moved his chopsticks first.

Seeing this, Han Xiangzi was not hypocritical, and naturally started eating and drinking with the Jizhou City God.

The two chatted while eating, and they had a very happy chat during the period.

Getting along with Jizhou City God like this, Han Xiangzi felt that compared with Qizhou City God, he was a little less ethereal and more pyrotechnic.

This kind of yin god, not sticking to small details, can enjoy the joy with the people, so he must be especially loved by the people.

No wonder, this Jizhou City God is valued by Nabin Monkey, and he can sit on this man in a short time.

One meal took more than half an hour.

When the curfew was approaching, the two of them left the Yunxianju with a lot of satisfaction.

When they returned to the City God's Temple, Judge Qiao and Yu Shu had had enough tenderness.

After talking with each other for a long time, I feel more and more inseparable from each other.

At the same time, Judge Qiao also learned about the current situation of the Qiao Mansion from Yu Shu.

Knowing that the Qiao Mansion is becoming more and more prosperous, Judge Qiao is also relieved.

As for the descendants of Qiao Chang, although he has never met him, he still admires him very much.

"Before, it was the little god who was rude and made Lord Chenghuang laugh."

After Qiao Zhaoxi saw the Jizhou City God and Han Xiangzi came back, he immediately went forward to make a confession.

"It's okay."

Jizhou City God shook his head and smiled peacefully.

"My lord, the little god has something to ask for."

Not long after, Judge Qiao suddenly knelt down to the City God of Jizhou.

"Get up."

Unexpectedly, the City God of Jizhou waved his hand when he saw this.

Regarding this, Judge Qiao's expression changed slightly, thinking that he offended the City God of Jizhou.

But who knew what the Jizhou City God said next made him dumbfounded:

"Judge Qiao also wants to beg the City God to mold her soul for her?"

Judge Joe nodded blankly.

I don't understand what the word "also" means in Chenghuang's mouth?

"Daoist Han has already begged the City God before, and I have already agreed."

Jizhou City God laughed.

"This……"

Judge Qiao looked at Han Xiangzi in disbelief.

At this moment, even Yu Shu, the peach demon, expressed great gratitude to Han Xiangzi.

There are simply not enough words of thanks.

She had no choice but to kneel down and thank Han Xiangzi repeatedly.

"Miss Yu, you don't need to be polite, this poor way is doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."

Han Xiangzi chuckled lightly.

At the same time, under his discerning eyes, he could see a touch of red wish power flying out of Yu Shu and Judge Qiao respectively, like silk threads, entering the center of his eyebrows.

With the blessing of these two wishes, the nine-color lotus in Han Xiangzi's soul rose again, and the green mist flowed.

Such a sign is that new lotus seeds are being bred.

Aware of this scene, Han Xiangzi was delighted.

Last time, he got the bird-calling technique from the lotus seed. I don't know what will happen to this lotus seed when it matures?
However, it is not yet known.

Not long after, Judge Qiao took Yu Shu and Jizhou City God to leave first, and returned to the Department of Yin Law.

Before leaving, the city god of Jizhou told him to bring Yu Shu here three days later to shape her soul.

Watching the two leave, Han Xiangzi knew it was time to leave.

Just when he was about to speak to the City God of Jizhou, he took the lead to persuade him to stay:

"Han Daochang, let's rest at my City God's place tonight."

"In a few days, it will be the day when the city gods of the counties under the jurisdiction of the city will start their exams. If Daoist Han is interested, you can stay and watch."

"In addition, Guan Shengdijun, the four guardians of the Great Emperor Dongyue, has been walking around the world recently. He is in charge of supervising and patrolling the city gods. If they are not complete, they will come to this city god, Jizhou, to see the city god's trial."

As soon as these words came out, Han Xiangzi was stunned for a long time before he realized it.

Unexpectedly, he came to Jizhou by such a coincidence, just in time for the examination of the City God.

As far as he knows, the city gods are usually bestowed by emperors.

I didn't know that the county town god had to take an exam before he could take office.

It sounds strange.

Of course, the more important thing is to have the opportunity to meet the Guan Shengdijun!

This Guan Shengdijun is one of the four guardians under the seat of Emperor Dongyue!

Also known as Emperor Xietian, Emperor Wusheng!
The real god of heaven!

It would be his luck if he could see it.

While thinking about it, Han Xiangzi said:
"Master Chenghuang is so loving, how can the poor leave, so I have to bother you for a few more days."

"Since that's the case, the City God will send someone to lead Daoist Han to rest."

Seeing that Han Xiangzi agreed, Jizhou City God smiled.

Immediately, he ordered the little ghost in front of him to lead him down to rest.

……

It is said that Jizhou has a Xiao County under its jurisdiction.

There is a scholar named Song in the county...
