One person: Reborn as Huangxian, seeking the title of Feng Baobao at the beginning
Chapter 412: Lighting up the Ghost Market
The sound of the gong seemed to have magical power. Even the ghost who was beaten to death struggled to get up and followed the team as if nothing had happened. As the ghosts gathered, the temperature around them dropped sharply, and Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong also felt weak and dizzy.
At this moment, Huang Miao suddenly grabbed a handful of paper money ashes from the brazier next to him and smeared them on their faces without hesitation.
The two were startled, but then found that the feeling of weakness had disappeared.
The whole process happened so quickly that they didn't even have time to react.
Huang Miao patted the dust on his hands and said in a deep voice: "When Yin energy erodes, Yang energy will weaken. Talk less and preserve the Yang energy." Upon hearing this, the two of them hurriedly shut their mouths and followed Huang Miao closely.
Soon, they followed the ghosts to the stage. Strangely, Huang Miao standing among the ghosts made them feel scared and dared not approach. Huang Miao didn't care about it at all, just staring at the empty stage with white lanterns.
As the drums sounded, two people in ancient costumes and painted faces suddenly appeared on the stage. One of them was burly, wearing a Tang-style futou, a red official robe, and black thick-soled court boots; the other had glaring eyes and held an umbrella, a lantern, and a sword to kill ghosts.
Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong were unfamiliar with the appearance of these two people, but when they saw hundreds of ghosts kneeling and calling them "Master", they were shocked. The angry man shouted angrily, and his voice echoed in Yishan: "The Holy Lord who blesses and guards the house is here, and he has established the rules for the ghost market. Anyone who enters the ghost market and does not obey will be beheaded!"
The sound was deafening, and the ghosts fell to their knees. Yang Xiao looked at Huang Miao in horror: "Director Huang, what...what's going on?"
Huang Miao smiled and explained, "Don't panic, those are my two team members. They are playing the role of Zhong Kui today and setting rules to ensure that the ghost market will be orderly in the future."
After hearing what Huang Miao said, Yang Xiao suddenly realized that the fat man in red official clothes was Zhong Kui, and the one next to him was Zhang Lingyu. The two of them set up ten rules for the ghost market, including opening at midnight and closing at dawn.
These rules were formulated by Huang Miao in advance, aiming to build a harmonious Yishan place for humans and ghosts. During the day, it is a scenic spot with many tourists; at night, it becomes a ghost market for ghosts to trade.
When the last gong sounded, the fat man and Zhang Lingyu who played Zhong Kui left the stage, the show ended, and the ghosts left one after another. But this time they were obviously more restrained, because the rules set by Zhong Kui clearly prohibited any riots or fights in the ghost market.
Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong stood beside Huang Miao, not daring to breathe. Even with their eyes closed, they could feel the chill brought by the ghost passing by. They knew very well that if they hadn't had paper ash on their faces to protect their yang energy, they would probably have been unable to hold on until now.
Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong had never encountered such a bizarre thing in their lives. Even though they knew that Huang Miao was protecting them, the fear in their hearts still grew like wild weeds, especially when they felt the yin energy around them, and they didn't even dare to open their eyes easily.
When they came to their senses, they were already standing at the exit of Yishan Scenic Area, as if they were brought out by Huang Miao with some magical power.
"Okay, it's getting late, and it's not good for you two mortals to stay here for too long. You have a general understanding of the situation in the Ghost Market, and I have done what I promised you. The Yishan Scenic Area is officially built. It is up to you how to operate it next. Remember, nothing in the scenic area can be moved. This is related to the overall feng shui of Tai City. If something goes wrong, you can't afford it." Huang Miao's words were somewhat serious.
Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong nodded repeatedly, like chicks pecking at rice. "Director Huang, don't worry, I will report to you immediately if there are any changes in the scenic area." Qin Yongsong said.
Huang Miao nodded gently and reminded him, "Also, after 10 o'clock at night, you must make sure that Yishan is deserted. If ordinary people mistakenly enter the ghost market, it will be difficult for them to get out safely."
Huang Miao didn't need to say this, Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong also understood it deeply, so they naturally did not dare to be careless.
As they were talking, two figures came running over from a distance. They were Zhang Lingyu and Fatty. Their makeup was not yet completely removed, and they were wiping the colored ink off their faces with paper as they ran.
"Director Huang, we're here!" the two men shouted breathlessly.
Although they changed their clothes, the colored ink on their faces still made it clear at a glance that the fat man was playing Zhong Kui and Zhang Lingyu was the ghost judge beside him.
Huang Miao looked at the two of them and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, with the rules in place, these ghosts won't dare to mess around anymore."
The fat man was so excited that he danced with joy: "Director Huang, it's so cool to play Zhong Kui!"
Huang Miao smiled and turned to Zhang Lingyu: "I thought you would compete to play Zhong Kui."
Zhang Lingyu looked at the fat man helplessly: "I wanted to come here, but the fat man pestered me to try it. I had no choice but to play the judge."
The fat man said confidently: "You are too handsome. Zhong Kui needs a big and strong guy like me."
Huang Miao also laughed when he saw the two of them playing and laughing. Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong kept looking in the direction of the ghost market, their hearts pounding, wishing they could leave this ghost place immediately.
"Okay, leaders Yang and Qin, it's time for you to go back. We will take a helicopter back to Lianyun City. There will be many opportunities for cooperation in the future. I hope that when we meet next time, you won't leave me a mess again." Huang Miao said, walking towards the top of the mountain with Zhang Lingyu and Fatty.
Yang Xiao and Qin Yongsong stood at the door and watched them leave, feeling both grateful and anxious. They knew that once Huang Miao and the others left, they would be waiting to die if they stayed here. So without saying anything, they turned around and left the Yishan Scenic Area.
Sitting in the car, the two were still in shock. Yang Xiao was pale and gasping for breath. After a while, he said to Qin Yongsong word by word: "Tomorrow we will put up a sign at the entrance of the scenic area and arrange police officers to guard it. There will be many people during the day, and the police can evacuate the crowd faster after 10 o'clock in the evening. We must not let citizens mistakenly enter the ghost market, and we must not let them discover the existence of the ghost market."
Qin Yongsong nodded in agreement, keeping Yang Xiao's words firmly in mind. At this time, they heard the roar of a helicopter overhead. Looking up, they saw a helicopter slowly rising and flying towards Lianyun City. They knew that it was Huang Miao and his group. Watching the plane fly away, the two suddenly felt a little empty.
"Keep in close contact with the Fengshui Bureau. Without them, we can't operate the Yishan Scenic Area at all." Yang Xiao gave another instruction, and then asked Qin Yongsong to drive. He leaned on the co-pilot seat, his mind full of images of the ghost market. Inadvertently, he saw through the rearview mirror the white lanterns on Yishan swaying in the wind, and there seemed to be human figures swaying in the white light. At the same time, Huang Miao sat in the helicopter, overlooking the night view of Tai City, and felt deeply moved. "Director Huang, this matter is over, can we take a few days off?" Zhang Lingyu couldn't help asking. They were really exhausted these days.
Huang Miao nodded, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Yes, now that this matter is over, the Feng Shui Bureau can breathe a sigh of relief for the time being. But don't just rest, the civil service exam will be in a few months. Prepare well and get a good score."
The fat man and Zhang Lingyu smiled at each other, then looked at Huang Miao seriously and nodded: "Don't worry, Director Huang, we are always ready!"
When the three returned to the Feng Shui Bureau, it was almost dawn. They thought they could quietly return to the house without disturbing others. But when they opened the door, they were stunned. The Feng Shui Bureau was brightly lit, and Feng Baobao and the others were in the hall, each holding a notebook and reciting questions.
Zhang Lingyu looked up at his watch with an expression of disbelief, and couldn't help but mutter, "I say, aren't you guys working too hard? It's already four in the morning, are you still awake, or have you just woken up?"
The old smoker half-closed his eyes and was reciting questions with Taoist Qingfeng. After hearing Zhang Lingyu's words, he took the time to reply: "Sleeping? That's a waste of time. You need to recite more questions!"
Feng Baobao had a facial mask on her face, but her eyes were fixed on her notebook: "This is what it means to be young, wearing the most expensive facial mask and staying up late at night."
Zhang Lingyu sighed helplessly, and when he looked around, he saw that the fat man had joined them. He couldn't sit still any longer: "Director Huang, I'll stop talking. I have to memorize the questions quickly. I'm so far behind them. I have to work harder to catch up!"
Having said that, Zhang Lingyu ran to his seat and immersed himself in the book with full concentration.
Huang Miao looked at this scene, feeling both relieved and helpless. He reminded: "This fighting spirit is a good thing, but don't forget to take a rest."

After saying that, Huang Miao went to the office. But as soon as he entered the door, he was stunned. Wang Ye was still awake at this time.
"Young man, they are all memorizing the questions, what are you busy with?" Huang Miao asked.
Wang Ye turned around when he heard the voice and shook the pen in his hand: "The test questions will be out soon. You will be responsible for sealing them up and don't leak them."
Huang Miao smiled and nodded, then sat down opposite Wang Ye. "Young man, let's follow the pace of the national civil service exam. I'll leave this matter to you. Go and coordinate with your superiors on the exam time and location, as well as the separate exam area for our Feng Shui Bureau. Time is running out, so you have to hurry up."
Wang Ye nodded in agreement, then he remembered something and asked, "What about the headquarters building? Can Wang Siqi do it alone?"
Huang Miao pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Wang Siqi is a good kid. I plan to let him take the exam as well. By the way, I haven't told you yet, he is the descendant of Wang Canghai."
"Wang Canghai..." Wang Ye was shocked. He hadn't heard this name for a long time, but this name was of great significance to the Zhang family. The grievances between the Zhang family and the Wang family had become complicated and difficult to sort out after years of baptism.
Wang just nodded slightly and didn't say much about the descendants of Wang Canghai.
"Wang Siqi will take the exam, and I will take care of the headquarters building first. After everyone finishes the exam, we will discuss the allocation of team members. Now that the Feng Shui Bureau has taken shape, these team members are the foundation for us to build the department framework. The nine teams have their own responsibilities, and they also need different team members to take on the responsibilities!"
That night, Huang Miao and Wang Ye talked for a long time until dawn. Afterwards, Huang Miao didn't even take a break and rushed directly to the construction site of the headquarters building. This matter had become a big deal in his mind.
In the days that followed, Huang Miao rarely returned to the Feng Shui area, but lived on the construction site, sharing the joys and sorrows with the construction workers. The workers were full of respect for Huang Miao, because he was not at all arrogant, but always so approachable.
Wang Siqi had always been with Huang Miao and felt the same way. He learned a lot from Huang Miao and was even surprised to find that Huang Miao's architectural Feng Shui attainments far exceeded his own. This discovery shocked Wang Siqi greatly because he had always confidently believed that as a descendant of the Wang family, he was unmatched in architectural Feng Shui. However, the appearance of Huang Miao made him realize his insignificance.
However, Wang Siqi was not an arrogant person. He soon began to seek advice from Huang Miao and constantly improve himself.
In the Feng Shui Bureau, the team members hardly left their houses, devoting themselves to preparing for the exam. The whole bureau was filled with a strong learning atmosphere. The staff of the Geological Bureau wanted to come over to chat, but found a sign outside the door: "No visitors during the exam preparation period!" Next to the sign, the strange weasel was leisurely crossing his legs, as if he was a landlord guarding the door. The staff had no choice but to leave, not daring to disturb him.
As time went by, the team members began to get nervous. Wang Ye took the team members' information to the provincial department in person, entered the information into the civil service examination system, and received the admission tickets.
In the provincial government, everyone is busy preparing for the civil service exam. The exam location is finally determined to be in a park near the provincial government, where candidates from all over the country will gather. After consultation between Wang Ye and Liu Tong, the Feng Shui Bureau exam process is also determined. For the liberal arts written exam, the team members will take the exam together with other candidates, but the content of the exam paper is completely different. After the written exam, the team members will also need to take a practical exam, which will be held in an empty room next door.
The invigilation of the civil service examination is the responsibility of government officials, but they have no right to invigilate the Feng Shui Bureau's examination. Therefore, the Feng Shui Bureau's examination will be under the full responsibility of Wang Ye, and no one will be able to interfere.
After everything was ready, Wang Ye returned to the Feng Shui Bureau with the admission ticket. The team members were very excited when they received the admission ticket. The day they had been waiting for for a long time finally came.
Looking at the team members who were both surprised and nervous, Wang Ye smiled and encouraged them: "Don't be nervous, be prepared, I believe in you!" The team members nodded in agreement and then plunged into the intense preparation for the exam again.
At this time, Wang Siqi returned to the Feng Shui Bureau. The team members had only heard of him before, but this time they finally saw him in person. After a brief acquaintance, the team members and Wang Siqi quickly became friends. And Wang Ye looked at Wang Siqi with a bit more complicated emotions in his eyes...
Wang Siqi was talking to his team members, and he looked up and met Wang Ye's eyes. Although Wang Ye quickly looked away, Wang Siqi was still keenly aware that the deputy director seemed to be paying attention to him. (End of this chapter)
