Zhutian: Everything starts from becoming a disciple of Uncle Jiu!

Chapter 526 The Princess’s Plan!
Not far from the Junjun Temple,

Guangping City God Temple.

In the ghost realm, in the main hall.

"Strange, why can't I calculate it?"

The City God of Guangping, wearing his official uniform and sitting in front of a desk, looked at the three copper coins standing on the table with a puzzled look on his face.

He was not investigating anyone else, but the suspected demon who had secretly attacked and almost killed the princess.

As for whether doing so would offend the other party, he had already helped the county lord heal his wounds, so what else was missing? In his opinion, although the other party was strong and very likely to be an immortal, he was also...

Ghost fairies are also fairies!!
Moreover, he could also beat the princess to the point of being scared to death. In his opinion, the other party should not be much different from him.

What's more, he is the city god of this place!

He just didn't believe that the other party would dare to attack him like he did to the princess. He was different from the princess. His position as City God was conferred by the underworld.

He is not a lucky person like the county lady who did good deeds during her lifetime and was worshipped by the people after her death, thus stepping into the path of ghosts and immortals by chance.

He didn't believe that the other party would dare to attack him.
Dare to challenge the underworld!!

"It looks like I'm going to bleed a lot. I'll have to ask this old woman to compensate me later... Well... it seems like she has nothing to compensate me..."

The City God of Guangping muttered to himself, and took out three copper coins from his wide sleeves. They looked ordinary, but actually had a hidden gem. He threw them into the tortoise shell on the table and began to shake it for divination.
Just shake it.

click-

A crisp sound emerged from the tortoise shell. The City God of Guangping stared at the tortoise shell with wide eyes, which kept making crisp sounds and cracks.
In the blink of an eye, the tortoise shell that contained his three precious coins turned into ashes. He looked up in horror and cursed angrily.

"My Lord, I am your wife..."

As soon as he finished speaking, just as the City God of Guangping was wondering why he was fine, the judge who heard the noise outside the main hall came running in with a group of ghost messengers and said, "Sir, what's wrong?"

He was just about to say that it was okay when he saw two familiar ghost messengers suddenly appear, which startled the City God of Guangping.

"Seventh Master, Eighth Master, why are you here?"

Upon seeing the Black and White Impermanence, the City God of Guangping quickly stood up to greet them, and at the same time signaled the judge who came in to take the ghost officials out.

"Xie Qi, your incident has been exposed!"

Bai Wuchang, a tall and thin man with a pale face and the words "I'll make a fortune if I see you" written on his official hat, scolded. The City God of Guangping was stunned and stopped. The judge and several ghost officials who were outside the hall and preparing to close the door were also stunned. Then they closed the door of the hall even faster and left even faster.

"Seventh Master, what's wrong with me?"

"Don't call me Seventh Master, do I know you?"

Bai Wuchang scolded with a cold brow, and the City God of Guangping turned pale. He hurriedly trotted to Bai Wuchang and the other man, and was about to ask him what he had done wrong when he heard Hei Wuchang say.

“Brother, don’t waste your time talking to him. It says above that there is both witnesses and evidence. Send him directly to hell. No need for trial!” Hei Wuchang suddenly spoke, and Guangping City God’s eyes widened.

"!!!"

"There's no need to interrogate... there's no need to interrogate..."

Bai Wuchang's face froze when he heard that, then it quickly straightened. He stretched out his hand, took out the soul-catching chain and threw it at the City God of Guangping. The City God of Guangping, who was tied up by the soul-catching chain, shouted.

"Seventh Master, Eighth Master, I am innocent..."

“Those who were arrested all said they were wrongly accused!”

Hei Wuchang said coldly, and Guangping City God said anxiously and palely: "You can't do this, it's not like I haven't done you any favors..."

bang——

With a scream, the soul of the City God of Guangping flew away. Hei Wuchang looked at Bai Wuchang in a daze as he put away the soul-binding stick and the duties of the City God.

"you you you……"

"Second brother..."

"Brother, you actually accepted the benefits behind my back!!!"

"..."

The point is this!

Bai Wuchang looked at those who had witnessed the incident outside the door speechlessly. After saying something in a low voice, he said loudly: "The City God of Guangping tried to resist and was executed on the spot!"

"Yes, you should take this as a warning and don't follow the example of the Guangping City God and follow his old path, otherwise the king's law will be ruthless!"

Hei Wuchang helped in an official tone and waved to open the palace gate while speaking. He looked at the City God Judge who did not leave with some surprise.

"Yes, yes!"

Bai Wuchang echoed. The City God Judge, who was kneeling on the ground outside the door and trembling, breathed a sigh of relief. He thought that he had made the right bet and said carefully, "What the two adults said is right. I will definitely keep it in mind. I just don't know what my family... Bah, I just don't know what crime this Xie Qi has committed?"

As he spoke, he carefully looked up at Bai Wuchang and the other man. After making sure that he could stand up, he stood up, lowered his head, trotted forward respectfully, and stretched out his hands that were hidden by his sleeves.

"Hehe, actually it's nothing serious. The main thing is that Xie Qi's private tampering with the life span of living people and making wrongful convictions was known by that Heavenly Lord." Bai Wuchang took it and stuffed it into his sleeve without any expression.

The Black Impermanence who also behaved in the same way said with a serious face: "Everyone in the world knows that the most intolerant of any grain of sand is the Celestial Lord of Mercy and Universal Destiny. This person actually dared to privately tamper with the life span of a living person. He deserves this fate!"

"Not bad."

Bai Wuchang nodded in agreement with a serious face. The judge listened and nodded, understanding that this must have offended the Heavenly Lord.

Privately tampering with the life span and wrongful convictions are not a big deal. At least, what they did was not a big deal. They were all reported in advance. This Xie Qi must be blind...

Thinking of this, his face turned pale, and he quickly chanted in his heart, "The Heavenly Venerable is merciful, the Heavenly Venerable is extremely merciful," and then asked curiously.

“I wonder when the new City God will take office?”

"Well..."

Bai Wuchang frowned, looking embarrassed and unwilling to say more, which made Hei Wuchang's face darker. He felt that his elder brother must have received a lot of benefits behind his back.
No, I'll have to ask for it later.

Get a tie!!

"Ahem, my Lords, to be honest, I have already accumulated enough merits, but I just lack... Hey, I suddenly remembered that you dropped something when you passed by Guangping last time..."

"This, is there?"

"How about we take a look first?"

Bai Wuchang and Hei Wuchang sang the same tune. The judge looked left and right and took out two objects from his sleeves. Bai Wuchang glanced at Hei Wuchang, who frowned and said, "It does look familiar..."

"This is what the adults lost!"

"Now that I think about it, it seems like I really lost it!"

Bai Wuchang took the things and put them away, and Hei Wuchang did the same. Seeing the two accept them, the judge was delighted. Then he saw Bai Wuchang take out the seal representing the City God's position, and said with embarrassment: "It's a bit difficult to deal with this City God gone..."

As he spoke, he winked at Hei Wuchang, who said familiarly, "Brother, I think this man is good. Why don't we let him take over the position of City God here temporarily? When the matter is settled, we can let the higher-ups decide who will be the City God of Guangping."

"That's fine!"

"Thank you, my lords! Thank you, my lords!"

Upon hearing this, the judge took the big seal representing the City God's position with great joy on his face, and the three of them said some polite words.

The judge then cast out his doubts, or rather asked about the real cause of Xie Qi's death. Of course, he was more tactful and just said, "May I ask how many bad things the former City God did, my lords?"

"This matter has nothing to do with you, but... I advise you to have less contact with people of bad character!" Hei Wuchang reminded tactfully with a serious face, although he didn't know what exactly happened.

But after his calculations, he felt that the matter was most likely related to the fact that the Guangping City God saved the princess.

But let him die. He didn't feel sad at all for the death of someone as dishonest as the City God of Guangping. He could just replace him with another City God.

"That's right, we, the righteous gods of the underworld, must do things in an upright manner..." Bai Wuchang also frowned and reminded.

The judge, no, the former judge, now the acting City God, looked as if he understood what he had learned, but in his heart he was thinking about the wife of Minister Xue, who had just left the City God Temple today.

Or, the county lord,
Got it, he got it.

It must be this old woman who provoked Tianzun! !

He said that it was all right, how come this princess almost lost her soul, it turned out that she had offended someone she shouldn't have offended.

The princess, who was far away in the ghost realm she had just condensed today, was unaware of all this. She just frowned at Xin Shisiniang, who was ungrateful to her.

"It's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. With me and your father here, it's not your turn to interrupt or make a decision!"

"It seems that the county lord wants to bully the weak!"

Looking at the county lady who was forcing her to marry, Xin Shisinian said coldly. Xin's father on the side tried to smooth things over, "Hey, Shisinian, how can you talk like that? You're bullying the weak. Don't forget that the county lady saved our family's life..."

The princess's expression eased a little after hearing this. She thought to herself that this old fox really knew how to respect her. Just as she was about to open her mouth to pressure Xin Shisiniang again, she saw Xin's father change the subject: "But then again, the times are different now. We still talk about free love, and we as elders cannot force it, right? And..."

When Mr. Xin heard this, he saw that the princess looked like she was about to get angry, so he quickly smiled and spoke to Xin Shisinian.

"The princess did this just because she was afraid that something might happen to her nephew. After all, you said that you had a chance to kill the wolf demon, but you let it go. Now the wolf demon has appeared again and is causing trouble for Feng Sheng. I think the princess asked you to marry Feng Sheng just to go with the flow..."

"No, you are wrong. I am not just going with the flow. It is just that Xin Shishisiang and my nephew Mi do have a connection, and you are destined to marry him." The princess spoke calmly.

There was no regard for Mr. Xin's expression in his words, which made his father's face darken, but he still forced a forced smile.

"My Lord, things are not the same as before..."

"What, you don't agree?" The princess asked back with a cold face, interrupting Xin's father's words. Looking at Xin's father who was choked and speechless, she snorted in her heart, then spoke to Xin Shisinian with a slightly relaxed expression.

"My original intention was also for your own good. Have you forgotten what I told you? If you want to become an immortal, you must understand great love. How can you become an immortal if you don't even understand small love like love? I am also helping you."

"help me?"

Xin Shisiniang's beautiful eyes revealed confusion. She frowned slightly as she looked at the county lady who nodded slightly. "Forcing me to marry Feng Sheng is also helping me? I don't understand what great love is, but I have never heard that becoming an immortal requires understanding the so-called great love, and getting married, and marrying your nephew!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Xin's father felt that he was in trouble. He looked at the princess's face which turned black in an instant, and became anxious, and spoke quickly.

“Please forgive me, my lord. I just couldn’t think straight for a moment. Please don’t blame me… And I think the most urgent thing right now is to let Fourteenth Lady find the wolf monster that has set its sights on Feng Sheng and get rid of it, so as to prevent Feng… Young Master Feng from getting into any accidents!”

Father Xin spoke quickly, and after he finished speaking, he instantly made plans to send Xin Shisinian away from here even if he had to be left behind to suppress her. The reason was simple: he was afraid that the princess would take action against Xin Shisinian.

However, he felt in his heart that Xin Shisinian would be fine. This was not an intuition, but he felt that something was a little strange.

Just as his daughter was given a fairy dress by a man who claimed to be his brother in his previous life, the princess forced his daughter to marry Feng Sheng. Combined with the fact that the princess had already let Xin Shisinian contact Feng Sheng, he felt that there must be something fishy going on! !
The next second, as expected, Father Xin saw the county lord's expression change from ugly to expressionless. He stared at him and said, "You... are right. The most urgent task now is to catch the jackal monster."

The princess paused for a moment as she spoke, looking with a somewhat unhappy expression at the business card wrapped in a handkerchief in Xin Shisinian's hand, and then she sighed with a slightly softened tone and expression and said to Xin Shisinian.

"I am not forcing you to marry my nephew today. I am only doing this for your own good. Besides, I have never lied to you. Everything I said is true. Only when you understand what great love is, can you pass the last level and ascend to become an immortal!"

She didn't lie about the last sentence, because that was how she became an immortal. She blocked the dam with her body when it was breached by a flood. That's how she was able to become a ghost immortal after her death.

"Thank you for your guidance, Lord!"

Xin Shisinian's tone was a little cold, and her attitude made the county lord feel annoyed. He snorted, "I will give you three days to catch the jackal monster. Okay, go quickly."

"Yes!"×2
Father Xin bowed and when he saw the business card in Xin Shisinian's hand and the change in the princess' attitude, he said to himself, "As expected."

After the two men left, the princess slapped the armrest with a grim expression. With the armrest snapping, she stood up and said.

"Where is the ghost?"

"What are your orders, sir?"

More than a dozen ghost officials who had luckily survived the explosion in the ghost realm appeared. Although they were dressed the same as the ghost officials of Guangping City God Temple, they were not the ghost officials of Guangping City God Temple, but just her private soldiers.

"Keep an eye on Xin Shisiniang. If you encounter that jackal monster in danger, remember to help him out in secret!"

The princess thought for a while before speaking. The dozen or so ghost officials were puzzled and the leader spoke uncertainly.

"Help the jackal demon?"

"Ok!"

"This...is, sir!"

Seeing the look in the county lord's eyes, a dozen ghost officials responded quickly, and then left the ghost realm. The county lord sneered.

"Trying to escape from my grasp... humph!"

The princess snorted coldly and was about to ask someone to take out the prepared gifts so that she could go and thank the City God of Guangping for saving her life, when she heard a voice.

"After all this time, you are just eating leftovers. I thought you also had an official position as a ghost messenger, but this is it!"

"who!"

The princess was startled when she heard the words, and looked in the direction of the voice. What she saw was a handsome man in a suit fiddling with a camera.

"you guess!"

The man in the suit, or Zhao Zheng, raised his head. The princess wanted to speak, but she found that her vision was getting darker rapidly!
"you……"

"boring!"

Zhao Zheng looked with disdain at the princess whose existence was wiped out by his eyes. His wise eyes allowed him to see the karma of the princess.

At the same time, he also read the princess's thoughts, that is, she wanted to use Xin Shisiniang, the fake sister, to bring prosperity to the whole family.

"How dare you to plot against me..."

Zhao Zheng complained and was thinking about whether to kill the other party again when he was attracted by the ghosts who were fleeing due to the collapse of the ghost realm.

"Save... Never mind, there's no need to save..."

Looking at the karma on these ghosts, as well as some residual blood energy from harming people through blood-feeding, Zhao Zheng was too lazy to rescue them. He just looked at the incense and vows left behind by the county lady after her death.

He thought that the princess had a divine position, but it turned out that she had nothing. She just had some power from incense and vows. She was just an unknown ghost fairy who relied on the leftovers of the Guangping City God's dispatch business.

The princess is a ghost fairy, but she is not a ghost fairy under the underworld system. Her ghost officials are dressed the same as the ghost officials under the Guangping City God, just because she usually helps the Guangping City God capture those wandering ghosts.

It belongs to...outsourcing!!

"But there are a lot of things!"

Zhao Zheng put away the camera, reached into the warehouse in the ghost realm, and collected those things that were still okay.

The rest were all thrown into the Purple Mansion World and turned into the world's foundation. After doing all this, he took a step out and left this ghost realm that had completely disappeared. As soon as he came to the present world, he saw a dozen ghost messengers and two foxes that had turned back.

"Who are you? Where is my master?"

The leader of the dozen or so ghost messengers spoke, and Zhao Zheng frowned as he scanned the dozen or so ghost messengers with blood in their bodies.

Or in other words, a ghost messenger who has harmed people! !

Zhao Zheng frowned and muttered.

"This old woman doesn't even screen the people she recruits?"

"say……"

The leader was about to speak, but then he disappeared. The rest of the ghost officials wanted to run, but then they also disappeared. Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The sight of more than a dozen ghost officials disappearing made Xin Shishisinian and her daughter stare blankly with their eyes wide open.

"Sorry, I'm a little late, but don't worry, you won't be bullied with me here." Zhao Zheng looked at Xin Shisinian with a gentle smile on his face, just like Long Yang looking at Long Kui.

"elder brother……"

Xin Shisiniang spoke subconsciously, and her face turned red after she finished speaking. When Xin's father heard the word "brother", his expression was stunned, and then he stared at Zhao Zheng who was giving his daughter a fairy dress with wide eyes.

But before he could open his mouth to express his gratitude, he saw Xin Shisi Niang pointing at the county lady's tomb and saying, "Is the county lady..."

Xin Shisinian looked at the ghost area under the county lady's tomb that had completely disappeared and said, Zhao Zheng nodded and pointed to the place where the ghost officials disappeared.

"She was killed by me just like them. Don't worry, I won't kill people randomly. Oh, I won't kill ghosts randomly either. She died simply because she was too disgusting."

"..."×2
I won't kill people randomly...

Kill her because she is disgusting...

Xin Shisiniang had a strange expression on her face, and her father felt that her brother might... not be a good person!

"Let me tell you this, whether this old woman is helping you become an immortal or forcing you to marry her nephew Sun Fengsheng, she is actually doing it for her own sake, so I say she is disgusting..."

Zhao Zheng spoke up. At first he thought that the princess only wanted Feng Sheng's descendants, and wanted to bring prosperity to the whole family.

But when he saw the princess, he found that it was not the case. Or rather, it was not entirely true. One person's success would bring prosperity to the whole family was only a part of the princess' plan.

Her main purpose was to gain the merit for helping Xin Shisi Niang to become an immortal. Yes, merit. Guiding others to do good deeds has merit, let alone guiding others to become immortals.

The original purpose of the princess was just for the merit, she wanted to improve her cultivation through merit. This can also explain why in the original TV series, when Xin Shisinian ascended to heaven, the golden light representing merit that appeared in the sky first shone on the princess' temple.

The princess had been doing this for herself from the very beginning, and she only wanted to propose marriage for Feng Sheng for the sake of her own descendants and to hope that if she succeeded, her family would all benefit.

Even with Zhao Zheng's interference, the county lady's thoughts did not change. Because of his interference, the county lady even wanted to plot against him as well. He could only say that she was very cunning.

But if you think about it, this princess is quite cunning. Even though she has been helping Xin Shisinian to become an immortal, in fact, in the original book, this princess has not contributed anything at all.

The main idea is a no-cost business!

"The princess did this for herself!"

When Xin Shisinian and the other two heard Zhao Zheng's explanation, they were filled with disbelief. Not only Xin Shisinian, but Xin's father also didn't believe it.

Without him,

The princess doesn't seem to be such a person, right? !

Xin Shisinian and Xin's father looked at each other, and they both saw the disbelief in each other's eyes. Zhao Zheng asked Xin Shisinian, "Did this old woman give you anything? Did she help you in any way?"

"..."

Xin Shisinian was silent. It was not that what Zhao Zheng said was wrong, but that what Zhao Zheng said was very right. The princess indeed had never given her anything... Well, thinking about it, she hurriedly took out the lucky bag.

"She's not doing you a favor by giving you this!"

Zhao Zheng grabbed the blessing bag, or the bag for collecting merits, and opened it. In an instant, strands of golden merits flew towards Xin Shisiniang: "She gave you this just to make it easier to check whether you have done good deeds..."

Just like a decent person writing a diary, which decent monk would give someone something to temporarily store merits to test whether they have done good deeds? This county lord had bad intentions from the beginning.

Or,

People do this just for themselves!
This made it hard for Zhao Zheng to imagine that the princess was actually a kind-hearted person who was willing to sacrifice herself to block the dike in order to save the people.

But think about it,
A good person does not always mean a good person.
A good person does not necessarily mean he is not selfish...
