This god is really evil

Chapter 122 Human Cream, Scum, Coffin, Blood Soldiers

Hearing Zhao Qingshan's words, Li Yan's eyes lit up and he praised:

"Good! Qingshan, well done!"

Old human cream, and scum!
He had forgotten about the scum in the various charity cemeteries before.

The so-called human scum, also called human ashes, are the ashes left after the bodies are burned in the crematoriums in various charity cemeteries.

After all, the furnace does not have such a high temperature, and there are many inorganic substances in the human body that are difficult to burn completely. After taking them out, what remains is a mixture of slag and ashes.

Most of these scumbags would just randomly dig a big hole in mass graves in various places and dump the bodies there, sometimes not even burying them properly.

Zhao Qingshan was originally just an ordinary apprentice helper in the charity cemetery, not even a formal errand boy in the charity cemetery. Suddenly, he became the manager of the charity cemetery in the county seat of Qinghe County. It was like a sudden rise to fame for him.

It was for this reason that after arriving at the charity cemetery in the county, Zhao Qingshan became convinced of one thing: since Li Yan asked him to do something, he must do it well, to the utmost, to a level that even Lord Li himself had not expected!
He knew that all his current status was given by Li Yan. If he couldn't even figure this out, then he would have been a motherless child for so many years and suffered so much in vain!
When he first arrived at the charity cemetery on the outskirts of the county, the original master chefs were still not convinced of him. At this time, Zhao Qingshan's advantages of being thick-skinned and sharp-tongued were revealed. Taking the documents and badge given by Li Yan, he used a few words to intimidate these master chefs.

Then he began to remove all the human fat from the crematorium in the county town. He cleaned it all up and put it in buckets, but he still felt unsatisfied.

Thinking about what Li Yan said about chanting a spell to exorcise the evil spirits, I guessed that Li Yan might also want to secure his position in the Imperial Observatory and gain merit, so he even installed those long-time scumbags.

After making inquiries from many sources, he heard that there was something strange in a solitary grave in the mass grave. He then called the master chefs from the charity cemetery to dig up the grave and the coffin, wrapped them in prayer flags, and put them all together.

He also sent a message to the brothers in the charity cemetery in each village and Weizi Town, asking everyone to follow suit.

All the brothers were from the charity cemetery in Weizi Town, and they were all holding their breath. At least they didn't want to embarrass Li Yan, so they worked very hard. Even when a fairy was skinned alive in public in the county a few days ago and the Five Gods Festival parade were held, they resisted the temptation and did not come to watch.

Zhao Qingshan raised his head, with a proud smile on his face, and said loudly:

"Master Li, you have just joined the Imperial Astronomical Bureau as a supervisor of living things. We don't have anything good to give you, so we will give you these human scum as a gift as a congratulatory gift."

Hearing this, several officials from the Imperial Observatory present were stunned and almost laughed out loud.

It's really funny that these country folks actually gave this human scum as a gift. If it were an ordinary official, wouldn't he be so angry that he would kick them out?
However, looking at the smile on Lord Li's face, he didn't seem to care. Instead, he seemed a little happy.

All the officials could not help but sigh in their hearts that the Supervisor Li Yan was kind-hearted and generous to others. In the face of such rude behavior, he could still be so generous. It was truly admirable.

Wang Wenshu smiled and said to Zhao Qingshan:

"Manager Zhao, you haven't been in the government office these few days, so you may not know that Lord Li has made great contributions in the case of the evil spirit in Weizi Town. He has been appointed as the seventh-rank supervisor of the Imperial Observatory. The original supervisor, Lord Liu, has been promoted to the Anding County Government."

Hearing this, Zhao Qingshan, Gao Zhiqiang, Hou Qi and others were all stunned, then opened their mouths wide with disbelief on their faces.

"Brother Li... Lord Li, you... you got promoted again!?" Monkey Seven was delighted and murmured, "A seventh-rank official in charge of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau! Oh my god, he's as high-ranking as a county magistrate!"

Just a short while ago, Li Yan was just like them, an apprentice in the corpse cremation cemetery in Weizi Town, eating coarse food with them. But after such a short time, he has become a seventh-rank official of the imperial court!

Zhao Qingshan was so shocked that his jaw dropped, and he murmured:

"Mom, I met a noble person...I met a noble person..."

Li Yan laughed and scolded:
"Look at how useless you are! The Imperial Astronomical Bureau is hiring people right now, so don't rush back to Yizhuang. Become a servant in the government first, and then slowly become a clerk. There are many places that need you."

Everyone was immediately ecstatic again.

Being a yamen runner in the Imperial Observatory means you can become a personal attendant of the inspector. In the future, you can at least become a clerk. An official, an official. Although it is not a high-ranking official position, a clerk can still walk around in this village.

It's much better than being a chef in a charity cemetery!
Zhao Qingshan said happily:
"That would be great. These past few days my father and my stepmother have sent me clothes and food. My father even said a few intimate words to me, just like when my mother was still alive. If I could become a clerk in the Imperial Observatory, wouldn't my father kowtow to me?"

Everyone couldn't help laughing, and the yamen of the Imperial Observatory was filled with a happy atmosphere.

Li Yan waved his hand and smiled:

"Stop joking. Go check on those scumbags you brought with you. Official business is more important."

Having said that, he walked towards the backyard of the Sitianjian with everyone else.

Just as he walked out of the hall of the government office, he saw an official named Zhang Shu walking over with an angry look on his face. When he saw Li Yan, he immediately said angrily:

"Sir, this County Lieutenant Chang Wei is really going too far! What a bunch of bastards, shameless and snobs!" As he said this, he looked at the people behind him.

Behind him, there was Zhao Mengsheng, the chief constable of Qinghe County, and several other constables that Li Yan was familiar with.

Hearing the official's indirect criticism, Zhao Mengsheng couldn't help but smile bitterly, looking ashamed, and said to Li Yan with a fist:
"Sir Li, I...ah, I was ordered by the county lieutenant to deliver all the old weapons piled up in the Qinghe County Treasury. The county lieutenant said...said that he wanted you, Sir Li, to clear the evil spirits from these weapons, and also said...said that this is the responsibility of our Sitianjian. I hope Sir Li can complete it as soon as possible and don't be perfunctory, otherwise I will report it to the county government..."

Hearing this, Wang Wenshu and other clerks of the Imperial Observatory were filled with indignation and shouted:
"You are not a human being! What kind of nonsense is that?"

"You have transferred all the detectives away, and now you have given me these weapons that have been rusted for who knows how many years, and asked me to exorcise the evil spirit. How can I do that?"

"Humph, what do you mean by exorcism? I think they are just trying to take this opportunity to entangle you, or to create some trouble and make things difficult for you!"

"This doesn't seem to be the idea of ​​County Lieutenant Chang Wei, but rather a vicious plot by the County Magistrate! But they are all birds of a feather, so it doesn't matter."

A group of officials from the Imperial Observatory cursed bitterly. Zhao Qingshan and others quickly understood the problems that the Imperial Observatory was facing, and then they also started cursing.

Zhao Mengsheng and the several constables he brought with him were blushing and feeling so ashamed that they could hardly raise their heads.

The county lieutenant Chang Wei asked them to send these weapons over, perhaps he wanted to warn those who were close to Li Yan.

But what the county magistrate did was really unfair. Lord Li Yan had always been kind and generous. He had even helped them to remove evil spirits from their weapons free of charge before. Now, from a moral point of view, these constables felt ashamed.

Li Yan suppressed his inner excitement and pretended to be angry:

"Okay, stop talking! This is our duty as the astronomical bureau to exorcise evil spirits from weapons. How can we sacrifice the public interest for personal gain and lose the greater good for the smaller one? Let's go to the backyard and take a look."

As he spoke, he took the lead and strode towards the backyard.

Seeing Li Yan being so kind and righteous, everyone couldn't help but sigh again and again. How could there be such a righteous and wise official?

Is this still an official of Da Qi?

Zhao Mengsheng and several other detectives felt ashamed to lift their heads up. What they had done was truly inhumane.

Soon we arrived at the backyard, and the first thing that caught our eyes was a row of wooden carts. On the carts were loaded barrels of human fat, probably about thirty to fifty barrels in total.

There are new and old human creams among them. After some refining, you can have eight or ten barrels of twenty-year-old human cream.

In addition, there are large wicker baskets filled with some gray mud-like substances, and occasionally some large pieces of residue can be seen.

[Old scum] [Old scum over 20 years old, mixed with some corpse relics, is a good material for repairing the statue]

The relics of the haunted corpse!

Just by listening to the name, you can tell that this is definitely good stuff!

Li Yan understood instantly that this thing was a corpse infected by evil spirits. After being burned, some bones that were completely infected by the evil spirits and could not be burned through were left behind, and what was left were the essence of the evil spirits.

I didn't expect that this scumbag contained corpse relics.

Looking further toward the row of carts at the back, there were more than a dozen rotten coffins stacked together. They were all the thin coffins used in charity cemeteries. They looked extremely worn out, and were all wrapped in prayer flags.

As far as Li Yan knew, the Great Qi had only established the charity cemetery for more than 30 years. Before that, those nameless and ownerless corpses were simply hastily buried in mass graves. Later, when a lot of troubles arose, the charity cemetery was established to burn corpses.

[Aged Haunted Coffin] [A haunted coffin that is over 30 years old contains evil spirits. Eating it is very nutritious.]

Looking at this pile of human fat, human scum, and evil coffins, Li Yan felt like drooling, as if a pervert had entered a brothel or a devil had entered a restaurant.

Resisting the urge to sacrifice himself right now, Li Yan immediately looked to the side.

There were nearly a thousand worn-out and rusty weapons of various types, some even from the previous dynasty, piled there, looking like a pile of rubbish, some of which had been rusted beyond recognition by bloodstains.

The entry also appeared:
[Weapons tainted with murderous aura] [These weapons have been used in the battlefield. Over time, the murderous aura can pollute and damage the weapons. The murderous aura can be collected and refined to make the God-Destroying and Heaven-Breaking Spears]
