What? My wife has come true?

Chapter 78 Your husband-in-law’s reincarnation has married a new wife!

The atmosphere inside the Leping County Yamen can be described as lifeless.

If you know that there are ghosts and gods, and you know that there are monsters, but you have never encountered them, then it doesn’t mean they don’t exist.

But if you really encounter it, most people's cognition will be impacted.

As members of the imperial court, the two adults in Leping County have some sources of information and can know more or less news, but it is really too much for ordinary people to encounter such a situation.

If it weren't for the fact that most of the government officials had to rely on this to make ends meet, it would have been possible that the entire Leping County government office would have collapsed because of this.

County Magistrate Lu, whose full name is Lu Yufeng, is in a similar situation to Prime Minister Li. He is not a native of Leping County. He was also demoted and sent out. This place is remote and there are not many things going on. During this term, he has not achieved many political achievements. I think so, but it’s a good place to retire.

But bumping into a monster is never a pleasant thing.

If it weren't for the gods descending from heaven last night, no matter what Lu Yufeng thought, he would have been dead.

"Master Gu is here."

Chang An walked in and reported the truth to Lu Yufeng in the Yamen Hall.

Compared to the disorganized police officers last night, Chang An was relatively calm and guarded the two adults with a knife, so he quickly gained Lu Yufeng's favor and promotion.

At this moment, Chang An did not dare to offend Gu Jiangming in any way. Master Gu's words came from his heart.

If Chang An's performance yesterday was above normal, Gu Jiangming was the weirdest and hardest to figure out among them all.

Not only did he not have the slightest fear, he also looked straight at the monster. Even if the monsters were killed at that distance, Gu Jiangming did not change at all.

Until the old god's flying sword touched the monster's sharp teeth, Gu Jiangming's expression was calm and calm.

With this kind of demeanor, Chang An is not an ordinary person no matter how he thinks about it.

Obviously he is very confident and has a plan in mind.

And Chang An wasn't doing reading comprehension on purpose. The picture yesterday was too shocking. He couldn't sleep all night, thinking about the details.

Lu Yufeng nodded, and he did not dare to neglect Gu Jiangming.

The old god's words last night were full of respect for Gu Jiangming, and the charlatans on the side also said that the old god had a great background.

But such people all respect Gu Jiangming.

How dare Lu Yufeng rely on his status as county magistrate to show off here.

To be a good person, you need to have eyes.

He stood up from the yamen hall and decided to greet Gu Jiangming in person.

As soon as Gu Jiangming came in from outside the Yamen, he suddenly noticed that everyone's eyes couldn't help but look at him.

At first, Gu Jiangming thought that His Highness Long Xi beside him was too attractive, but later Gu Jiangming realized that this was not the case.

His popularity seemed to have improved overnight. People he had known before or people he didn't know would come up to say hello.

Lu Yufeng, who has always been a bit arrogant as a scholar, took the initiative to walk out of the office hall and change into a world with a normal world view. This was already a sign of self-degradation.

"Jiang Ming, you're here." Lu Yufeng said with a smile: "Is this Mrs. Gu?"

Gu Jiangming has given up on explaining things like this.

Yesterday in the Yamen, she was forcibly kissed by His Highness Long Xi for no apparent reason. When she came here today, she was afraid that Gu Jiangming would accidentally lose her, so she came here holding hands.

There was a misunderstanding in the morning that could not be explained at all.

What can be done then?

I can only lie down.

No matter how tough the explanation is, it will probably be regarded as a conflict between a young couple. In this situation, as long as he knows the truth and Long Xi can figure out that this is not the relationship between them, then it will be good. He, Gu Jiangming, can't either. Nothing more to force.

Lu Yufeng looked outside calmly and asked, "Where is that old god?"

"Did he go away with his horse?"

Last night, the white tiger showed its demonic form and Izumi was the first to attack him. As a monster helping others, Lu Yufeng undoubtedly mistook the white tiger for Xu Qingyun's mount.

Just like those stories in classical mythology, gods must have mounts to be worthy of their status.

"He left first if he had something to do. Moreover, he has a bold and unruly temperament, so he rarely interacts with the court." Gu Jiangming said after a moment of silence, "It's a little difficult for you to find him."

"By the way, Mr. Lu, where is Li Xian Cheng?" Gu Jiangming changed the topic and continued to ask: "Why didn't I see anyone else?"

Lu Yufeng paused and said, "He is said to be ill. He has submitted his resignation to the court and is now lying in bed with illness."

"When the court allows him to retire and return to his hometown, he will probably go back."

"Ah?" Gu Jiangming is penniless, and his only source of income is ghostwriting for Li County Cheng. How could he have expected that something like this would happen.

After thinking about it, Gu Jiangming said calmly: "I was in a hurry when I left home, and I didn't have any money. Now that County Magistrate Li is gone, can I still do things for the Yamen?"

At least for now, Gu Jiangming can't reveal his origin.

His identity as a scribe was entirely supported by his fabricated identity as a son of a noble family.

"It's natural." Lu Yufeng was still eager for Gu Jiangming to stay. He could vaguely sense that there was something unusual about Gu Jiangming.

By staying here, Gu Jiangming has an extra layer of security.

When Long Xi heard Gu Jiangming's words, his eyes were a little hesitant, but he felt that Gu Jiangming seemed to need something very much.

"This. Can this be exchanged for something?"

Long Xi's voice sounded weakly from behind Gu Jiangming.

Gu Jiangming turned around and saw a shiny gold ingot in the palm of Long Xi's hand.

It is in excellent condition and really shines in the sun.

Even Lu Yufeng has never seen gold ingots of this kind. Many of the gold ingots he has seen are dark, and this level of luster is still relatively rare.

[Treasure identification trigger effect]

[The gold ingot you see comes from the enshrinement of the Dragon Palace in the South China Sea by officials of the Zhou Dynasty 10,000 years ago. 】

【but.】

[Dragon has a very high pursuit of wealth, and it is difficult for ordinary objects to arouse the interest of the dragon clan. 】

[This is a golden ingot purified by the Dragon King of the South China Sea using magic. It is in excellent quality and conforms to the aesthetics of the dragon clan. 】

So rich?

"Of course it can be exchanged, but exchanging this for something is a bit luxurious, isn't it?" Lu Yufeng looked at the quality of the gold ingot and said hesitantly.

Long Xi was a little confused.

Why do human beings have so many rules and are so strange? It would be nice if they could be changed. How come there are still so many twists and turns?

Gu Jiangming kept secretly poking at her for not understanding human rules.

Long Xi was actually quite critical of this point, and she didn't understand it at all.

For example, transactions between people often involve bartering, and some things are exchanged for other things.

She still knows these truths.

I just didn't expect it to be so complicated in actual operation.

"How many meals of meat can I exchange for this?" Long Xi asked.

Since we are in the human world, we must abide by human rules. In the past, dragons could eat meat as they pleased.

Many mortals would even take the initiative to throw some domestic livestock into the sea in order to worship them.

"Meat exchange?" Lu Yufeng was stunned. He felt that his soul had received a new impact and was greatly shocked.

It's not just a waste of money for you to exchange this thing for meat. And if you really exchange this thing for meat, how long will it take to finish it?
What family? Can you squander it like this?
If you want to eat meat or buy meat, just take some broken silver. Is it necessary to exchange gold of this quality for meat?

"My wife never goes out to buy anything. The servants at home prepare it for her." Gu Jiangming defended with tears in his eyes.

"Oh oh oh oh." Lu Yufeng reacted immediately and probably knew what was going on.

It's no wonder.

But look at this move, it's not something ordinary ladies can do, right? How rich does one have to be to say such a thing?

Even the eldest princess of the emperor's family may not have this kind of thinking that "wealth can rival the country".

Moreover, when Lu Yufeng thought about what happened last night, he also knew that the other party was not a secular person and must have a big background.

After all, the only people who can scare monsters are the enlightened monks of our human race, right?
Under Lu Yufeng's speculation, he felt that within the Great King Dynasty, there should be a monk community that secretly protects the safety of the human race, or a special organization like the Imperial City Department. Otherwise, with such terrifying abilities of monsters, they would have been killed long ago. If all mortals like them are killed, can the world still have peace for such a long time?
Thinking back to Gu Jiangming's expression yesterday, the old god descending from the sky was more like a kind of escort, and the other lady's extraordinary actions and vague knowledge of wealth made Lu Yufeng's judgment even more serious.

At this moment, a message sounded in Gu Jiangming's heart.

[People from the Imperial City Department are about to come to Leping County to investigate the monster Quan Xian who died in the Yamen. 】

The information just appeared.

There was a sound at the door. "The Imperial City Department is handling the case, and the rest are waiting to give in -"

I saw more than ten people wearing the same official robes, with black as the base and bright brocade. They had a long sheathed knife on their waists and three daggers hanging on their waists. Some people They all wore hats, some simply covered themselves with a black veil, and others casually wore ghost faces, all seemingly to conceal their true identities.

The leader just glanced at Gu Jiangming and immediately asked, "Who is Mr. Lu?"

"I am Hu Qiubai, the envoy of the Imperial City Department of Xijiang Prefecture. I have received reports of unusual events from Leping County to the court, and I came here to investigate the case."

The speaker has a stamp on his chest, which seems to be a symbol of some kind of rank.

Compared with the Northern Wei Kingdom in the reincarnation simulation hundreds of years ago, the current Dajing Dynasty has obviously learned the lessons of the former, and seems to have established a special department to detect monsters.

But in fact, the Northern Wei State did not have special means of dealing with evil spirits. Gu Jiangming remembered that the simulation mentioned that the Northern Wei State invited monks to quell the rebellions of rebels in various places. This is enough to prove that the Northern Wei State had understood and used the monks.

But in the end he was overthrown by the Dajing Dynasty, which came from behind.

After all, the simulation only has one line of text, which saves a lot of water and details, and also causes Gu Jiangming to miss more detailed information.

"I am Lu Yufeng, the magistrate of Leping County." Lu Yufeng saw the token shown by the other party and immediately said: "Last night, our county was suddenly attacked by monsters, but fortunately, an immortal master named Qingyun Zhenren took action. Survived.”

"The monster's corpse is in the back hall. Sirs, please come with me."

The words fell to the ground.

A group of people walked towards the back hall.

Gu Jiangming did not join in the fun. He planned to go to Li Xian Cheng's wing to visit this man who was kind to him.

In the back room, Li Xiancheng was writing and writing.

His face was rosy, and he was not sick in bed as Lu Yufeng said. This statement was just a reason to find before resigning.

Mainly because Prime Minister Li didn't want to die in a foreign land, and secondly because he found a 'haunted house' for Gu Jiangming. After last night, he just wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

And this haunted house also has some hidden secrets.

You must know that Leping County is located in an extremely remote location and does not have many local industries. Under Xijiang Prefecture, Leping County is considered a relatively poor county.

The only young people in Leping County are those who migrate to higher places. There is no such thing as people from other counties taking the initiative to settle in Leping County.

A scholar appeared here inexplicably, and repeatedly said that he was not a local, explaining that he was traveling and landed here.

It just so happened that his name was Gu Jiangming.

At that time, Li Xiancheng only thought that the other party was making fun of him, because Leping County was the hometown of layman Nan Gu.

Even local farmers have heard the story of layman Nan Gu.

You, a scholar, don’t know?
Li Xian Cheng wanted to keep an eye on Gu Jiangming for how long he wanted to pretend, so he took him in for a few days.

As a result, the other party insisted that the name belonged to him, and it was written in calligraphy that was exactly the same as that of layman Nan Gu.

Li Xiancheng took out the old and authentic paintings of layman Nan Gu and compared them. They were all carved from the same mold.

He was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat that night. He went to thoroughly investigate the past and present lives of layman Nan Gu, and thoroughly investigated his life in the local area.

Fearing that Gu Jiangming was the reincarnation of the wronged soul of layman Nan Gu, Li Xiancheng made a bold decision.

That is to say, Gu Jiangming was sent to the south where layman Gu lived alone after his wife died.

It was the haunted house that made outsiders change their minds after hearing the news.

Several scholars who visited this place once visited here and spent a night there. As a result, the three of them caught wind and cold at the same time.

Not long after one of them returned home, many family scandals broke out, and his reputation was ruined.

From then on, no one cared about the house.

Of course, this is just a rumor, but it is true that no one dares to touch or live in this house.

Li Xiancheng sent him there because he wanted to teach him a lesson for pretending.

After what happened yesterday, Li Xiancheng felt that he had offended Gu Jiangming, and realized that Gu Jiangming was not an ordinary person, so he naturally wanted to avoid him.

There was a knock at the door.

"Come in -" Li Xiancheng said angrily, "Didn't you say that there is nothing important, so don't bother me?"

Gu Jiangming walked in, "Master Li, aren't you doing well?"

"Why is it you?" Li Xiancheng was still thinking about Gu Jiangming just now. Unexpectedly, when he met Ai at the corner, he was immediately caught. He smiled and said: "I have offended so many people these days, but I still hope to see you." Immortal Master Haihan.”

"I'm not an immortal master. If you hadn't taken such good care of me, Prime Minister Li, I would have starved to death long ago, and I wouldn't have a place to stay now." Gu Jiangming was truly grateful to Prime Minister Li.

The opportunity to make a living is given by him, and the house is arranged by him.

This kind of boss is rare anymore.

Why does he look a little weird?
Li Xiancheng was so frightened that he almost knelt down, especially when he heard the place where he landed, his kneecaps almost softened and he turned over.

But looking at the expression on Gu Jiangming's face, it looked like the same thing.

"I heard that you are resigning and returning to your hometown. I came to pay you a visit and see you off when the time comes." Gu Jiangming said with emotion.

"There's no need to see him off. It's good if Mr. Gu has such a heart." Li Xian Cheng waved his hands repeatedly, "I only mentioned this illness to make it easier to submit my resignation to the court. You don't have to worry about it like this."

He thought for a while, gritted his teeth and took out a land deed from the wing, which was considered as telling the other party the truth of the matter.

"This is the title deed to your house."

"No one lived in that house, and it was confiscated later, but because of some special features, no one stayed here."

What he wanted to say was already covered by the title deed.

Because there is a signature of layman Nan Gu on this land deed, as long as you go back and think about it carefully, you should be able to know that the house is the house of layman Nan Gu.

It’s not like he was cheating.

Gu Jiangming took the land deed and found that Li County Cheng was a very down-to-earth man. His name had been written on the land deed in advance.

Is this a house coming down from the sky?

"No reward for no merit." Gu Jiangming wanted to be polite, but he had already taken away the land deed.

It took me thirty years of hard work to build a house in modern times, and now it was given to me with just one sentence.

Gu Jiangming was still in a very comfortable mood.

He had some ambivalence before. He felt that the house belonged to someone else, not his own, and he couldn't freely renovate it.

Now that he owns the house, he has an idea to renovate it and clean the house thoroughly.

It's much more comfortable to live in.

And in Guanzhong, thousands of miles away.

After a full day of running around.

The white tiger turned back into a human form and rode a horse he had obtained from a sheep to gallop thousands of miles.

When it is about to return to a place where humans live intensively, it can no longer use its demonic form to swagger through the city and use the demon cultivator's escape skills to get on its way.

When it's time to be low-key, Bai Hu still has to be low-key.

But motivation brings unlimited productivity.

Let him prepare to deliver his errand as fast as he can in his life.

He dismounted, threw away the reins, and flew up the city wall of Guanzhong. Taking advantage of the darkness of night, he entered the city in just a few steps.

A set of movements flows smoothly.

The former residence of Guanzhong.

Bai Huzhi's proud voice sounded outside the door.

"Lord Jiujiu, I have found the reincarnation of your husband-in-law. He is now married to a bride, so you don't have to look for him."

"Xu Qingyun told me that there are many opportunities in a person's life. Now that there are new ones, the old ones don't need to disturb the world of the past. The past will disappear like smoke and be forgotten in the world."

"Okay, I found the person for you. When will you remove me from the demon tree?"

Baihu walked into the house.

"Okay -" Jiujiu smiled softly, then his face was as cold as a blade and his voice was as cold as a bone.

"How about you choose a good and auspicious day to die when you want?"

"Who on earth taught you to talk to me like this?"

There is another update in the evening. In the early hours of last night, I felt unwell and felt a little dizzy, so there was no update.
