Chapter 33

At dawn the next day, Yi Shuyuan woke up from his desk, patted his hair and shook his clothes, and a lot of dust fell. Looking at the corner of the table, the oil lamp had already been extinguished because the wick was soaked in oil.

After blowing off the dust on the paper, Yi Shuyuan stood up and stretched out. The muscles and bones in his body also crackled. The pain caused by yesterday's martial arts training had disappeared, and the tempering effect of the spiritual energy seemed to be very good.

Yi Shuyuan felt his body carefully. There was a faint air flowing in the meridians. Although it was very subtle, it circulated continuously. This should be the inner air of people who practice martial arts. This was an unexpected surprise, but it was not like A Fei said.

It was collected in Dantian like that, and he didn't deliberately guide it.

Then Yi Shuyuan looked inward slightly, as if he could see a vast expanse of heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, with a faint layer of spiritual energy flowing on the ground, and a faint spiritual wind from time to time.

Yi Shuyuan was thinking in his mind, does this count as laying a foundation and improving his cultivation level? However, he has never met an immortal cultivator in this world to compare with him in this regard, and he doesn't know what his state is called.

Forget it, after all, you are one step closer to your own way!

But the hygiene needs to be cleaned up.

Yi Shuyuan looked inside the library. Originally, there was a lot of dust accumulated on the top of the bookshelves in the library. Last night, the old dust on the beams was shaken down, leaving the library empty for months.

Just like cleaning, there is dust everywhere.

It feels like a spring cleaning is needed!

Not long after, Yi Shuyuan found a broom and dustpan, covered his nose with one sleeve, and swept with the broom in one hand. He felt that the bursts of dust were extremely stifling.

"Cough cough cough..."

At this time, Yi Shuyuan couldn't help but want to know some clever wind and water control spells, which would definitely be extremely efficient in cleaning.

The cleaned dust was swept into the dustpan. Yi Shuyuan, coughing a little, took the dustpan and poured the dust into the small flower bed not far from the corridor.

After pouring out the dust, Yi Shuyuan seemed to notice something and turned to look at the end of the corridor.

There, an official was looking at him with slight surprise. After noticing Yi Shuyuan's gaze, he immediately came back to his senses and stepped forward to greet him with a few steps.

"Sun Yuan, the Japanese inspector of Yuanjiang County, has met Mr. Yi!"

When Yi Shuyuan saw this official, he had already realized that he was not from the county government at all. At this moment, he even saw the word "tour" written on his hat. It should be the same as the "tour" he saw the night before.

The word "official difference" is almost the same.

Yi Shuyuan put down the dustpan and returned the favor, then followed his thoughts and spoke.

"Japanese envoy? Is it under the jurisdiction of Yuanjiang County City God?"

Sun Heng was slightly stunned. Do you still need to ask such a thing? But Yi Shuyuan didn't look like he was seeking his happiness, so he immediately said seriously.

"He is one of the Japanese envoys under Lord Cheng Huang!"

This is a real ghost! Yi Shuyuan was slightly excited, and immediately smiled on his face, and tried to be polite in his words. After all, he also wanted to consult the other party about something.

"I wonder what your Excellency, the Japanese Inspector, has to do with Yi?"

When the Japanese patrol came to see Yi Shuyuan being so polite, he couldn't help but relax a little, and his tense face softened a little, and then he spoke truthfully.

"Last night, Lord Chenghuang saw the spiritual energy of Yuanjiang County gathering in the moonlight, and he thought that if there weren't some masters casting spells, there might be powerful monsters hiding and practicing, so he sent me to the county office to ask, Sir, what happened last night?

Know?"

Yi Shuyuan pondered in his heart. It seemed that the City God of Yuanjiang County already knew about the existence of Yi. He was obviously here to find out more about him, but there was no need for him to hide it. For a while, people really thought that there was some monster hiding there.

Here it is.

"It has disturbed Lord Cheng Huang. What happened last night has nothing to do with monsters. It was caused by Yi's practice. Yi will pay more attention to it in the future, so please don't worry too much."

Is it really him? The Japanese Inspector nodded slightly and saluted Yi Shuyuan again.

"Thank you sir for informing me. In this case, I don't dare to disturb you any more. Japanese Inspector Sun Heng will resign!"

After saying this, the official in front of Yi Shuyuan turned to one side, and a dark wind rose under his feet. He took a few steps and reached the end of the corridor, and was about to leave.

Yi Shuyuan shook the dustpan and the patrolman almost disappeared that day, so he hurriedly called for someone.

"The Japanese envoy will stay!"

Sun Heng's figure over there paused, his slightly blurry state became clear again, and he turned to look at Yi Shuyuan.

"I wonder why Mr. Yi asked you to live in the lower house?"

Yi Shuyuan quickly took the dustpan and put it down at the entrance of the library, and then walked towards the Japanese inspector over there. Although there was no one around, he couldn't shout something about the Yinsi City God inside the county government office.

Seeing Yi Shuyuan approaching, Sun Heng, the Japanese patrol envoy, also hurriedly approached him.

Only when he was close did Yi Shuyuan speak.

"I'd like to trouble the Japanese inspector to report to Lord City God that Yi Shuyuan has something he wants to ask the ghosts and gods of the underworld. Duke Huang has told me to go find the City God in the city. I wonder if it would be convenient for Lord City God to show up to see me?"

Sun Heng's heart moved, Huang Gong? Could he be the God of Kuonan Mountain? He heard that he was just passing on a message, so he naturally agreed.

"Oh, that's it. I will convey it to you sir! Regardless of whether Lord Cheng Huang sees you or not, I will come and inform you. If you have nothing else to do, sir, I will resign!"

"Japanese patrol officer, move slowly!"

Seeing that Yi Shuyuan was fine, Sun Heng turned around and left.

Watching the other party leave, Yi Shuyuan felt a little more relaxed. He was thinking about how to talk to the Yinsi of Yuanjiang County before, but it was solved like this. He originally thought that he might have to ask Kuonan Mountain God for help.

------------------

At the Chenghuang Temple in Yuanjiang County, the crowds are surging at this time, when many pilgrims come to offer incense. The streets outside the temple are also very lively, and their bustling level is no worse than the streets outside the county government.

But out of sight of ordinary people, a special official was quickly walking through the crowd of people on the street to the City God Temple.

Obviously, there were pilgrims outside and inside the temple, but when this official stepped into the main door of the temple, the light also dimmed at this moment. All the pilgrims who originally looked in from outside the temple disappeared, and only the temple remained in the whole hall.

The statue of the middle god and this official.

This official was Sun Heng, the Japanese envoy who had just left Yi Shuyuan. At this time, he saluted the statue of the City God in the palace.

"Lord Cheng Huang, my subordinates have gone to the Yuanjiang County Government Office to meet Mr. Yi. According to what he said, the change last night was due to his practice."

The huge statue of the City God on the altar slowly lowered its head to look at Sun Heng, and a loud voice echoed in the hall.

"It is indeed this person."

Sun Heng immediately said again.

"Mr. Yi also said that he had something to ask for advice and hoped to come to visit Lord Cheng Huang. He said that he had received advice from Duke Huang."

The huge statue of the City God slowly stood up at this moment. Dust seemed to fall off its body, but it turned into wisps of smoke, carrying waves of sandalwood. When the huge statue stepped forward, its figure became smaller and smaller, and finally it was in the shape of the god.

In front of the stage, he transformed into an old man the size of an ordinary person and wearing a crown that reaches the sky.

"He wants to see me?"

Sun Heng nodded in response.

"That's indeed what he said."

The City God frowned slightly, looked in the direction of the county government office, and murmured.

"This person's cultivation is unfathomable, but he works as a small official in the county government to compile county annals. It is somewhat absurd. He is not like an ordinary person in the immortal way. However, he stands up to avenge a lonely soul. If he also knows Huang Hongchuan, it is even less unlike him.

The devil and his ilk used an unfounded mortal name to come to my Yuanjiang County, what is the deep meaning..."

"Sir, then I will reject him?"

The city god turned to look at the Japanese envoy and raised his hand to stop him.

"No! This person is unpredictable. Since he proposed to meet, I can't refute his face. Let me check him out. How about this? You can go and tell him later. I'll tell him tomorrow at about nine o'clock.

I invite him to come to the Chenghuang Temple to talk about it when the temple opens!"

"My subordinate understands!"

The Japanese envoy accepted the order with his hands raised, and the city god nodded and looked outside the hall.

"Well, let's go down first."

"Yes, I am resigning!"

The Japanese envoy left the main hall, leaving only the Yuanjiang County City God standing in the hall. Not far outside the hall, many pilgrims came here with their own moods and demands, and brought incense.

The City God walked towards the outside of the temple, and when he stepped out, he was surrounded by people offering incense. When he turned back, the hall behind him was also bustling with people, and the believers were all worshiping the clay statue.

Who is this Mr. Yi?

The old City God looked thoughtful. As a local god who governs an area in Yuanjiang County, let alone outsiders, he at least knows something about all the mortal residents in Yuanjiang County. There are also Yinsi treasures in the City God's Temple that can verify mortals.

What you do.

The Book of Life and Death is a treasure derived from the power of the Yinsi's Shinto. Although it does not have as exaggerated abilities as in the myths of Yi Shuyuan's previous life, it can help the God of the Yinsi understand the status of mortals within its jurisdiction, and even provide reminders when someone's death is imminent.

That night, when Yi Shuyuan was noticed, the Yin Division of Yuanjiang County had already conducted detailed investigations through various methods. Over time, they learned that Yi Shuyuan was Yi Baokang's brother and Yi Sheng's eldest son.

The family is still a villager in Xihe Village, and no one knows about this.

It's just that all this is extremely ridiculous in the eyes of the Yinshen of Yuanjiang County.

This is because the Yi family does not have an eldest son named Yi Shuyuan, and this name is not even in the book of life and death!

This is really an incredible thing. It is difficult to understand why many mortals recognize and remember Yi Shuyuan, but the gods of the Yins have no memory at all. If the gods of the Yin are probably forgotten, what about the Book of Life and Death?

If the other party casts a spell, why do they do such a seemingly meaningless thing?

Moreover, things like memory are very mysterious, because although mortals are easily deceived by illusions, their thinking is also the most complex.

It is not difficult to use magical powers to influence one person's memory, but if it is a family or a village, and the memories of everyone must be connected with each other, from children to the elderly, and even some ghosts, the same is true, and it lasts for decades.

For a long time, this is a bit too unimaginable!

"If he wants to meet, then let's meet."

The old city god frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he decided to wait until he met Yi Shuyuan before going to Kuonan Mountain God to find out more. After all, Huang Hongchuan was also a weirdo. He had only had one interaction with him in the past two hundred years since he became the city god, so he really didn’t know much about it.
