To say that this gang of ghosts is quite interesting, let’s not mention the causes, but only the results. How can we convince everyone by saying help to kill the ghost king?
Sure enough, Shi Jian became even more angry when he heard Shi Shaojian's words: "You can become a government official by killing a ghost king. It's the most ridiculous thing in the world. Are these ghost officials trying to make fun of us?"
Shi Shaojian pursed his lips when he heard his father's words. What's wrong with making fun of us? We are official employees of the underworld. We can't even curry favor with them. Do we still want to vent our anger on them? It's true that the old man has eaten arsenic and is tired of living...
Of course, he didn't dare to say these words. He knew very well what his father's temper was. Saying these words at this time was no less than adding fuel to the fire and would definitely not make things better.
"Come on, let's go out and ask around."
Shi Jian said angrily: "I don't believe it, they dare to do this!"
Shi Jian, who just reprimanded his son to calm down, has completely changed his mind.
bao zha.
After going out for a walk, Shi Jian's face was as dark as coal.
Before, he had some illusions and thought everything was fake.
But the cold reality gave him a gorgeous slap in the face.
It's actually true!
Lin Jiu was elected as the official because he just killed a ghost king that the ghost guards couldn't find for a while.
What a joke! It's really ridiculous!
The underworld easily gave Lin Jiu his dream job.
It can also be seen from this aspect that in fact, in the underworld, in the eyes of ghosts, the official status is not that important.
It's ridiculous that Shi Jian has been planning this for so long.
What a joke, it turns out that Shi Jian is the joke!
Shi Jian, who was dazzled by jealousy and anger, looked up to the sky and screamed like a madman, and then used wooden stakes to smash the entire yard into chaos.
It was a mess, as if it was the scene after a bombing.
This lasted for a while, and finally exhausted, he breathed heavily, his eyes flashing ferociously like a beast.
"Dad, are you okay?"
When Shi Jian went crazy, Shi Shaojian cleverly hid in the room. After seeing Shi Jian finish venting, he cautiously walked over and asked softly.
"I, I'm fine."
After calming down, Shi Jian let out a long breath and said viciously: "Son, this time I was a father who made a mistake.
If I listen to your suggestion and get rid of their masters and apprentices when they come to Huacheng, it won't be so troublesome.
Fortunately, it’s not too late.”
Hearing Shi Jian's words, Shi Shaojian looked confused and asked curiously: "Dad, what do you mean it's too late?"
"The official canonization will be two days later. A lot of things can happen in these two days."
Shi Jian squinted his eyes and slightly raised the corners of his mouth and said coldly: "If Master and Disciple Lin Jiu die suddenly, the government officials will not fall on them."
"Dad, this is not okay."
Shi Shaojian's face changed slightly and he began to persuade: "Even if he is not canonized, Lin Jiu is already considered a candidate recognized by the underworld. If you attack him, the underworld will definitely be dissatisfied."
After hearing his son's words, Shi Jian shook his head and said, "I think I'm not the only one who harbors resentment. When the time comes to arouse their emotions, master and disciple Lin Jiu died tragically in the chaos. Does the underworld really dare to accuse everyone?
You know, there is more than one Earth Master among these people!"
…
Shi Jian's guess was correct. The official election campaign hadn't even started yet, and the official position had been decided in advance. There were many dissatisfied people.
But although they were angry and felt unwilling and unfair, they did not have murderous intentions like Shi Jian.
The position of government official is tempting, but the news has already spread from the underworld, which means it cannot be changed.
What can be done about something that is a sure thing?
Taoist Yaoguang is also one of the many insiders. At this time, he
Standing next to the window of the inn, looking at the bustling Flower City, I sighed inaudibly.
Unlike others, he came from across provinces and was exhausted from traveling all the way. He has finally adjusted his condition in the past few days and is ready to show off his skills in the election.
Who would have thought that all the preparations would go down the drain, and it would be an absolute lie to say that I am not disappointed.
Especially since he had a chance encounter with Lin Zhengying, who was mediocre and not as good as himself...
Hey, he is a man of great luck.
The disciples headed by Tang Yi stood respectfully behind him, silent, but there was a light of reluctance in everyone's eyes.
If this time the government job falls on Shi Jian of the Maoshan sect or Zhengyuan layman of the Zhengyi sect, they can still accept it. They are both in the realm of earth masters and are similar to their masters, which is reasonable.
But what the hell is Lin Zhengying!
They have already inquired and found out that Lin Zhengying has not even reached the realm of Earth Master and is still wandering around in the realm of Human Master.
It’s really hilarious. You and Senior Brother Zhang, who is only 23 years old, are already masters.
How can such a result convince the public?
"Master, we can't let this matter go like this." Seeing his master sighing again, Tang Yi couldn't help but say.
"If not, what else can we do?"
Taoist Yaoguang turned around and looked at him and said: "What qualifications do we have to object to what the underworld decides?"
"Master, I heard that some people are dissatisfied with the results this time and want to confront Lin Zhengying and ask him to voluntarily abdicate in favor of others."
The reason why Tang Yi said this was not because he was petty and held a grudge after being taught a lesson by Feng Yi once.
If you are not as good as others, you should work hard to improve yourself. He has no objection to this.
But then again, Lin Zhengying wouldn't know something that even a junior like him knew, right?
As a disciple, he saw how much Taoist Yaoguang had sacrificed for this feud, and he sincerely complained about his master.
Hearing Tang Yi's words, Taoist Yaoguang was noncommittal and said calmly: "What if Lin Zhengying refuses?"
"Then, you have to teach him a lesson!" Tang Yi didn't expect the master to ask such a question, and said with a pinched neck.
"It is unwise for those who practice Taoism to be so valiant and fierce.
Besides, even if Lin Zhengying is beaten half to death, so what? Can it change the outcome?"
Taoist Yaoguang shook his head and said: "As long as Lin Zhengying successfully becomes a government official, he will receive a steady stream of funding from the underworld, and his strength will also increase by leaps and bounds. If we turn against him this time, what if he misses him and takes revenge in the future?
It seems to me that the person who made this suggestion definitely has ulterior motives and bad intentions."
Shi Jian was afraid that he would not have expected that Taoist Yaoguang would see through what he thought was a foolproof plan.
"Master, what should we do?"
"Isn't there a lot of excitement tomorrow? It doesn't matter if we go and take a look. We can't come here in vain." Taoist Yaoguang said with a smile.
A similar scene is also taking place on the side of Zhengyi Sect.
After listening to what the disciples said, Master Zhengyuan said: "I guess there won't be peace in Huacheng tomorrow, so we can go and watch."
The attitudes of the two most powerful people were surprisingly consistent. They only watched the fun and did not participate.
They can feel better if they can see Lin Zhengying suffer some losses.
But on the other hand, Shi Jian has already recruited several helpers privately...
