I was favored by the evil god, and I became a white-bone bodhisattva.

Just as he expected, the news of the rainfall soon spread to the county town and was known to the government.

At the order of the county magistrate, the detectives went out in large numbers to go up the mountain to eradicate the evil spirit that was misleading people.

"That little girl didn't lie to me. The government really went up the mountain to attack us."

Tangtang's persuasion actually had some effect.

Master Qiu has been on high alert recently, fearing that the little girl would join forces with the crane demon to kill him at any time.

As a result, the expected man and demon did not arrive, but instead the government officials came aggressively.

Qiu Daxian had the courage to fight with two beings of the same level, but when facing the government, there was only one word in his mind - run!

"What are you doing?!"

Just as the loach was about to run away, something unexpected happened.

A group of villagers holding dung forks and wooden sticks stood in front of the aggressive constables.

"I am ordered by the county lord to go up the mountain and demolish the temple. Please retreat immediately!"

The leading constable roared, thinking that the other side would be scared to death, but he never expected that they did not move at all.

"There is no water in the wells, and the mountain streams have dried up. You have demolished the temple of Qiu Daxian, what should we do?"

"No water? If there's no water, run to where there is water and get some! Are you all dead or have you no legs?"

These words sounded condescending, and revealed a tone of not caring about the lives of the villagers, which immediately angered everyone.

"There is water in the county. Do you want us to fetch water?"

"County Lord? The damn County Lord never cared about our lives!"

Accompanied by several roars of venting anger, the villagers had a fierce conflict with a group of constables.

Chapter 041 The King's Taboo

There were seven constables, including the chief constable, who came to demolish the temple, but there were more than a dozen villagers trying to stop them on the spot!

As time passed, more and more villagers came to support.

So, Qiu Daxian was extremely shocked to see that the people from the government were actually driven away by his own believers.

This situation completely overturned the worldview of this great demon.

The government has always been a symbol of [irresistibility]. As soon as the government takes action, all the monsters will retreat immediately.

However, this irresistible force was actually beaten back by a group of villagers holding dung forks and wooden sticks?

"..."

The beard on Qiu Daxian's face trembled, and while he was excited, he gradually showed a thoughtful look.

No matter how powerful the monster is, it is unable to confront the government head-on. But why do they have to rush in on their own?

Can we mobilize our own followers and let the people govern the officials? !

Yes, it should be possible. After all, there are real examples right in front of us.

When he thought of this, Qiu Daxian suddenly felt restless.

This is my territory and I won't leave!

Government?

Haha, let me, the big demon, have a good fight with you.

"Qiu Daxian--"

The villagers arrived at the halfway point of the mountain panting, and when they saw that Immortal Qiu was still in the temple, they all showed joy on their faces.

"Great Immortal, some constables wanted to go up the mountain to demolish the temple, but we have driven them away."

"Master Qiu, is it our turn to have rain today?"

Everyone was talking at once, and the big demon couldn't help laughing.

"I'll keep my word. As long as you guard the mountain well, you won't have to worry about having water to drink in the future!"

It's really magical. All the villagers in front of me can be killed by just rolling around in my monster form.

It was this group of people who drove away the constables who could have brought him a fatal disaster.

"Officials defeat demons, demons defeat the people, and the people defeat officials. The demons in the past were too stupid. They didn't need to be afraid of the government. As long as there are enough believers, what can the government do to me?"

'Haha, I am really smart!'

...

As he had been paying close attention to the development of the situation, Li Xingwen soon learned that the villagers had rioted and driven away the constables, and that Qiu Daxian had formed a "mountain patrol army".

"That Qiu Daxian is going to kill all the villagers in the surrounding villages!"

When the detectives were attacked, it was already a serious matter.

When the mountain patrol troops came out from behind, it was almost like a rebellion.

Originally, Li Xingwen had some goodwill and sympathy towards Qiu Daxian because of the rainfall, because no matter what, he actually helped the villagers alleviate the plight of water shortage.

But when he learned that Qiu Daxian not only refused to listen to his advice but also attacked Tangtang, he just stood by and watched coldly.

At this point, Qiu Daxian was inciting the villagers to brutally resist the government, and the scholar was filled with hatred!

"Is it really that serious? I think that Master Qiu is pretty powerful."

Shan Yunhe's stance was different from Li Xingwen's. Although she hated the loach, she felt a sense of satisfaction and solidarity when she heard that the detectives were defeated.

"Have!"

Li Xingwen said sternly, "After this happens, the county magistrate will not let it go and will report to the county governor to dispatch troops to suppress it. Once they are identified as 'rioters' and the soldiers arrive, they will die in vain."

"Cousin, what should we do now?" Tangtang asked worriedly.

Things have come to this point. Unless we can convince the county magistrate, everything else is just empty talk.

But according to what he learned in the village in the past two days, the local county magistrate was stupid and would not listen to anyone at all.

"There's nothing we can do," Li Xingwen sighed. "This is not a good place. All we can do is leave as soon as possible and not get ourselves involved."

Shan Yunhe immediately agreed when he heard this, but Tangtang was unwilling to give in.

"Really, really, really, is there really no other solution?"

"If one of my guesses is correct, if I can communicate well with the county magistrate, if the county magistrate is wise, things may still turn around."

How could Li Xingwen be willing to accept this?

But he knew very well that he could do nothing!

"Ugh"

After sighing again, the scholar told the little girl his thoughts.

"Cousin, you obviously have a lot of ideas, why don't you try them?" Tangtang looked at Li Xingwen with confusion.

"There's no point in doing something you know is impossible."

.....

After packing their luggage, the scholar asked Shan Yunhe and Tangtang to leave early the next morning.

but......

"Yunhe, where is Tangtang?"

"I don't know. When I woke up, I found that there was no one next to me."

The man and the demon looked at each other, and then said almost at the same time: "It's broken!"

Oh no, the little girl must have gone to the county town to plead for the people.

Just as Li Xingwen and Shan Yunhe thought, Tangtang did not choose to leave.

No matter how impossible something is, how can you say it is impossible unless you try it yourself?

Boom, boom, boom!

The little girl swung the drumstick with great effort and struck the big drum in front of the county government office.

mighty--

The two rows of constables on the left and right were beating their mighty sticks, with the county magistrate sitting high above them.

But this might did not frighten Tangtang. The little girl strode into the county government office. She did not kneel down, but pointed at the county magistrate and said loudly: "Sir, do you know that you are about to face a disaster?"

When these words were spoken, the county magistrate was stunned.

"You are so rude, girl. Why do you say such things as soon as we meet?"

"Hehe, if Tangtang is right, are you ready to report to the county governor and send troops to suppress the villagers?"

Huh?

The county lord frowned: "So what?" &? Skirt~

"That's why Tangtang said that you are about to be in big trouble. You must not transfer these soldiers. If you do, things will get out of hand."

"I am not a coward," the county magistrate said calmly, and was about to have the little girl dragged away.

But Tangtang's next words immediately made his face change drastically.

"The well has dried up and evil spirits are causing chaos. These two things are not a big deal if they happen normally, but they will become a big deal if they get out of hand. But the old Taoist priest caused a big incident in Yujing not long ago, and you, sir, have caused such a thing in the blink of an eye. What will Prince Fu think, and what will His Majesty think?" The little girl imitated Li Xingwen's tone and words, questioning the county lord in the hall.

.....

The royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty rarely granted titles outside the capital. The only exception was when the old emperor was mourning for his younger brother and felt love for him, so he appointed his younger brother's grandson as king in Yizhou.

The rest are all in Qingzhou, managed by the Da Zong Zheng Yuan headed by the crown prince.

After Prince Fu came to Yizhou, he did not take charge of much affairs. As long as officials at all levels did not violate taboos, everything would be fine.

What is Prince Fu’s taboo?

The answer is - causing trouble will bring bad luck to the emperor!

Because once an official from Yizhou offended the emperor, he, as the king of Yizhou, would inevitably be reprimanded afterwards.

As the only king with an external title, Prince Fu’s philosophy is not to seek merit but to avoid mistakes.

If any Yizhou official dares to cheat him, he will definitely be held accountable, and the punishment will be heavy!

The county magistrate suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He already found the affairs of Yujing strange, but he had just taken office as the county magistrate for the first time and had been so busy recently that he had no time to think about it.

But after the little girl’s reminder, he was shocked and immediately understood everything!

That's right, at this critical moment, there must not be any such mess as 'dry wells and evil spirits causing chaos' under his rule.

Chapter 042: Integrity

After listening to Tangtang's words, the county magistrate felt that keeping the matter under wraps was the best strategy.

But the problem is that now the villagers of four villages are rioting, and he can't cover it up with the power at hand!

"Someone, close the door!"

At the county magistrate's order, the two constables immediately closed the open door.

"As you said, this matter really shouldn't be made a big deal, but the evildoers gathering together to cause chaos cannot be ignored. If I don't report and mobilize troops, it will be difficult for me to quell the rebellion."

Tangtang was just a little girl, but the county magistrate was looking at her expectantly.

"The villagers are trying so hard to protect the temple because they have no water to drink. They have no other options except hoping that Qiu Daxian will bring rain."

"and many more"

The county magistrate interrupted Tangtang and said with a frown: "Of course there are other ways. They can come to me for help!"

this......

"You do so many bad things every day that no one believes you."

As soon as Tangtang said this, the county magistrate couldn't hold it anymore.

"I was just transferred to this county at the beginning of the month. How come I have done so many bad things that no one trusts me anymore?"

Huh, you were just transferred here at the beginning of the month?

The little girl scratched her head and said that if the bad thing was not done by you, then it was done by the former county magistrate. Anyway, no one has much trust in the government.
