I became a saint in the world of Liao Zhai, and flirted with monster girls

"..."

This shamelessness... I am convinced!

Zhou Kao was completely speechless. This local City God was truly an amazing person.

"Thank you, Lord Zhou, thank you, Lord Zhou. Now I have a reason. Just as the floating mother fed the Crocodile King, I will manipulate his heart. As long as this becomes a good story in the underworld, when I dream of him in the world of the living, that will be the day when the soul of Yu Wangzhou can rest in peace."

After saying this, the City God waved his hand, and his official robe rolled up a whirlpool, and the spirit ship hurriedly got into it.

Zhou Kao looked around and saw a special river connected to the whirlpool. On the river, there were many boats of various sizes, big and small, heading in countless directions.

"Could this be Huangquan? But this isn't Huangquan."

Although Zhou Kao was curious, he had no plans to go over and take a look. What if he went over and couldn't come back? Wouldn't that be a waste of time?

After this adventure, Zhou Kao rode his horse to the shore and talked about it with the former Tongzhi of Yuwangzhou.

The Tongzhi was immediately overjoyed and quickly bowed to Zhou Kao: "If so, this is a great kindness."

After a brief chat, I learned that the Tongzhi had a young son who also drowned. He had been suppressing his grief and never showed it. He was busy resettling the people and didn't care about much else.

Zhou Kao was immediately deeply moved and bowed solemnly to the Tongzhi.

After saying goodbye, Zhou Kao felt a sense of emotion in his heart: After all, these bureaucrats have both good and bad sides, and all kinds of strange things.

There is Wang Jiaqi, and there will also be Wang Jingwei.

They all have the same surname, Wang, but there are many different kinds of people born from the same rice. This is actually very reasonable and normal.

When Zhou Kao told the people of Zhujiagou about his encounter with the City God in the lake, many of them burst into tears, with a hint of joy in their sadness.

It’s because the tombs of our ancestors were all underwater, and even most of the ancestral tombs were washed away, so we don’t know what to do.

Chapter 199: The Green E Tribe's Difficulty

In memory of the ancestors in the future, can they still find their home?

Now that they had the adventure described in Zhou Er III Mio (IV), they felt relieved.

When they settle down somewhere else in the future and worship their ancestors during festivals, I believe they will not get lost and will be able to find the right way home.

If it weren't for the City God's management, all of these things would probably take a lot of time.

After receiving this news, the first thing is that the living will feel at ease and more peaceful; the second thing is that the dead will rest in peace and not be afraid of becoming wandering ghosts.

"My husband is truly kind and generous!!!"

Zhu Wanjun stood beside Zhou Kao and said calmly.

"How to say?"

Zhou Kao looked at the busy crowd and asked.

"Actually, my husband doesn't want to help the City God. This goes against his principles. But for the sake of justice, his principles can be put aside. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is compromising."

"I'm not as noble as Sister Zhu said. I'm just... well, forget it."

Zhou Kao did not continue to discuss this issue.

That night, the people and officials of the former Yuwangzhou, who had been tired all day, and the team that came from Lin County to provide disaster relief, all had a dream.

The content isn't exactly the same, but they all generally praise the story of "the floating mother feeding the pig"—the "floating mother," the old lady of the Liu family, feeding the injured Golden Armored Crocodile King, who had transformed into a pig woman. After saving the pig's life, the Golden Armored Crocodile King attained enlightenment, won the heart of a man, and used his body as a giant boat to save countless lives...

After waking up from the dream at dawn, more of the surviving people went to the "Golden Dragon Dike" to worship, simply because they felt that it was spiritual, which was a beautiful story in the world.

Zhou Kao didn't have any dreams, but after hearing about the situation around him, he was stunned:

"Goodness, the City God of Yuwangzhou is truly remarkable. How can he thrive so well in the underworld? His operational abilities and efficiency are truly unmatched by many."

This kind of professional bureaucrat... Zhou Kao hates them, but he never says he is dissatisfied with them. They can really get things done!

The impact of the "Yuhu Incident" will gradually erupt in the future.

After the Dayu court heard about this, the central government departments and the Central Military Commission sent capable personnel to investigate - one was to provide disaster relief, and the other was to resettle the subsequent civilians and carry out reconstruction matters.

Given the foundation of Yuwangzhou, dividing it into three counties is the minimum arrangement.

This means that there are a lot more official hats.

Some of the "old soldiers" of the Central Army General's Office also had the idea of ​​finding a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to retire.

Yu Lake is connected to the river, has low terrain, and is full of countless legends. For many people who want to achieve immortality after retirement, it is simply the best place to go.

The court on earth is so lively, and the underworld is not much better.

As a result of the "Floating Mother Feeding" incident, the former City God of Yuwangzhou lost his official hat, but was only demoted.

After several counties in Yangshi were separated from Yuwangzhou, he chose one of them to take up his post.

This news was told to Zhou Kao by the local night-walking god when he escorted him to Hukou.

As for how to characterize Wang Jingwei, the former prefect, the debate continues.

But Zhou Kao was too lazy to pay attention to these things and just walked away.

Even though some people were worried about the great changes in the world caused by Yu Lake, most people took the opportunity to celebrate.

The commendation given to Zhou Kao was limited to the category of "human". As for his struggle with ghosts and gods, the Dayu Dynasty did not support him, but was ambiguous and quite vague.

However, the court of Dayu still gave him the title of guerrilla general on the grounds that "Beiguo Zhoukao had done righteous deeds" and regarded him as a "human being" for his ability to subdue demons everywhere.

But this guerrilla general will give him an official position and allow him to lead troops, but everything will be at his own expense. If he can lead the troops, then he can lead them, but if he can't, then forget it.

In addition, it was stated that the issues of honors, bounties, protection, etc. would be discussed after the Yuhu incident was settled.

The people of Yuwangzhou thought it was a good idea, and believed that Prime Minister Zhou would be granted the titles of duke, marquis, earl, viscount, and baron; while the monsters in Yuhu Lake were indignant - Prime Minister Zhou risked his life to break a monkey's paw and nearly bled to death, but in the end this matter was postponed?

Fortunately, Zhou Kao himself had a good attitude. He felt that the Great Yu Dynasty was about to perish, so it didn't matter what tricks were played at this time.

What belongs to him is worth every penny.

As for official titles and the like, what he wanted was privilege and convenience, as long as it was enough for him to use his power.

Now, he is going to deal with a big matter.

A letter from Lu'e.

Yan said that her family was in trouble, so she went to help and got implicated.

Eighty miles north of Hanshou City, there is a mountain in a place where few people go.

There are green mountains and clear waters, birds singing, flowers blooming, a gentle breeze blowing on your face, and clouds and mist lingering. It is a rare and blessed place for spiritual practice.

In her letter, Lu'e called it "Qingshan".

There are no tigers, wolves or other ferocious beasts in the mountains, but there are traces of foxes everywhere.

Her father had occupied this place more than eight hundred years ago, lived in seclusion there, and devoted himself to cultivation.

However, after a long time, there will always be some trouble.

Lu'e had a clan of foxes who were distant cousins. They couldn't stay in the north, so they moved around and eventually came to Qingshan and settled there.

Since then, there has been no peace in the mountains.

Just as humans fight, foxes also quarrel.

At first, there were only some verbal frictions and territorial disputes, but over time, the resentment grew deeper and turned into a life-and-death conflict.

Just recently, a fierce internal fight broke out among the fox tribe in the green mountains due to the competition for territory.

For a time, blood flowed like a river in the mountains and plains. Countless wild foxes died tragically, and the ground was littered with dead and wounded, with wailing sounds heard everywhere.

Originally, with the Taoism of Lu'e's father, how could he be afraid of a group of fox cousins ​​who came from afar?

It's a pity that he had followed the path of a human immortal in his early years. He had already shed his fox body and transformed into a human form. His cultivation was far more profound than that of ordinary monsters.

But because of this, his magic power has been greatly reduced, and he is absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon again, hoping to condense his cultivation again and reach the peak again.

Among those distant cousins, the patriarch is a black fox who has practiced Taoism for a thousand years.

It follows the orthodox path of the fox fairy, has never shed its original form, and still retains the true identity of the fox clan, with profound magical powers.

Originally, Lu'e's father's cultivation was much higher than hers, but now he is suppressed and slightly inferior.

Logically speaking, as they are all from the same fox clan, even if there are some conflicts between them, they would not go to war and kill each other.

However, I don't know who instigated the black man these days, and he actually invited several scholars with extraordinary destinies and found some ruthless old hunters.

Those scholars all had a fierce look between their eyebrows and eyes, and a faint aura of nobility lingered around them. They were obviously not ordinary scholars.

The hunters are even more proficient in the art of exorcising evil spirits and demons, and they all hold talismans and magical tools to restrain demons.

The old fox clan, which should have been able to overwhelm everything with its power, was defeated by the attacks from both inside and outside. They were forced to retreat from Qingshan and hide in a dilapidated temple at the foot of the mountain to survive.

The foxes fled in all directions, were either captured or killed, and suffered heavy losses.

Chapter 200: Arriving at Qingshan and Encountering a Hunter

Now the group of humans who helped the black fox have no intention of letting Lu'e and the others go, and they want to kill all of Lu'e's fox clan.

Zhou Kao saw that the entire family of the “person” he was protecting was about to be completely taken care of. How could he tolerate this?

They immediately set out to rescue.

So, the common people escorted Zhou Xianggong off the shore, and the monsters escorted Zhou Kao off his nest.

After Longma stepped into the river, the river became somewhat quieter, with only the sound of waves flowing upstream.

"My dear, Zhang Zenggun is truly a remarkable saint! This dragon horse is truly impressive, effortlessly traveling thousands of miles a day! If it were an ordinary horse, Sister Lu'e and her tribe would have been skinned and tanned by those hunters and made into vests!"

In less than half a day, Zhou Kao and his group arrived at Hanshou.

Little Tai Sui said in Zhou Kao's arms.

As for Zhu Wanjun and her sister Xiaoqing, they lived in the snail shell with Yu Niang. Yu Niang had to keep a close eye on these two young ladies.

Want to ride on the same horse with your husband?

What a beautiful thought.

Anyway, the shell is very spacious, so it can easily accommodate eight or ten more young ladies!!!

"My dear, do you think those hunter monsters will give us face and let those foxes go?"

Little Tai Sui blinked his eyes and said with a wicked smile.

"Little Tai Sui, saving face is a bad habit!!! When have you ever seen me saving face for those demons and monsters? Don't I always use a knife? Sharp move, sharp move, kill them all, and the whole world will be at peace."

"To deal with people, you need to have a method to deal with people. To deal with monsters, you need to have a way to deal with monsters."

Zhou Kao looked around and said casually.

Little Tai Sui had stars in her eyes in Zhou Kao's arms. She knew her husband would say that, but she just wanted to hear Zhou Kao say these domineering words in person.

She loves to listen!!!

The three scaly creatures in the shell nodded in unison. They loved hearing it too!!!

The green mountains are not high, but they are covered with dense forests and are rolling.

There are many hunters in the nearby counties, and farmers go up the mountain to hunt for food. There are also women from nearby villages who go up the mountain to collect wild vegetables and mushrooms.

"Are those the green mountains?" Zhou Kao looked up and saw that there were indeed endless mountains, lush and green. He wondered what the scene was like in the mountains.

"The direction is correct, the place name is correct, we shouldn't be wrong." Little Tai Sui raised his head, licked his paws, and said lazily.

"Let's go." Zhou Kao gave an order and continued on his journey on his dragon horse.

On the way, two sturdy and short men came towards them, carrying steel forks on their shoulders and carrying a few freshly hunted rabbits and pheasants. They were returning from the mountains, apparently taking the prey to the county town to sell.

The two hunters talked as they walked:

"I don't know what's going on in the mountains lately. The wild animals aren't hiding in the deep forests anymore, but are instead running out of the mountains. Yesterday, the traps I set not only caught several game, but also a fox! Look, it's still alive!

I plan to sell it to a fur merchant in the county. I heard that the best fox fur is worth a lot of money, especially a live fox with its fur intact."

“I also heard about this from an old man in a nearby village.

The old man said that there has been unrest in the mountains recently. There might be monsters fighting, which scared out all the wild animals in the mountains, so the wild animals are running out.

I heard there are a few wealthy young men in Jinling who love fox furs, and they've hired a number of hunters to go hunting foxes in the mountains. They're offering a price of one or two taels of silver per fox. Tsk tsk, I'm tempted to try and earn some of that money."

"Yes, that hunter Zhang from the next village has hunted twenty foxes these days and made a good twenty taels. He was over thirty and still couldn't find a wife, but now he's got married to a virgin girl! I'm so jealous. When I sell this fox, I'll make some money and buy my wife some new clothes."

Another hunter sighed, "You can't hunt foxes in the green mountains. This is a rule passed down from generation to generation. My father said that if I dare to hunt one fox, he will break my legs; if I hunt two, he will break both legs. There's nothing I can do. I won't be able to make this money."

"Hey, I didn't hunt this fox, it just walked into the trap on its own, so it doesn't break the rules."
