Chapter 8
Wuhong County City God Yamen is a standard county City God Yamen. There are 67 registered immortal officials and 172 miscellaneous officials. Although they are local officials established in the underworld in the world, their immediate superiors are the Southern Yue Emperors of Hengshan among the Five Mountains of the Great Emperors of China.
The main responsibility of the City God Yamen is to be in charge of extradition of the dead of living people in the world, rewarding good and punishing evil, life and death, blessings and misfortunes, promoting welfare, protecting the city, etc. Their power is equivalent to that of the people's government of Wuhong County in the world. The only difference is that one is in charge of living people and the other is in charge of dead people.
The Chenghuang Yamen in Wuhong County is responsible for the management of more than 700,000 people in Wuhong County. In addition to the Chenghuang Yamen, it also sets up the main yamen in each town and street, which are managed separately and submitted in a centralized manner.
The department that Yang Shixuan wants to report is one of the seven departments opened in the City God Yamen. It is responsible for inspecting various areas and reporting memorials. It occasionally participates in the collection of information about mortals.
The City God Yamen will be promoted to the hall every day. It is from 7:30 to 10 o'clock in the evening. The City God will listen to reports from the heads of each department in the City God Yamen to understand the various things that happened in the area under its jurisdiction that day. However, sometimes the City God will hand over these things to the Yin-Yang Department, which has the First Auxiliary Department, and he will not see any trace of his own private affairs. This is also one of the hidden rules.
Therefore, the Yin and Yang Department of the City God Yamen has the reputation of the First Auxiliary Department, and is regarded as the leader of each department, with great power and has the power to restrict and supervise the officials of each department and immortal officials in each realm.
Obviously, Guo Xinyao, the city god master of Wuhong County, was not in the hall tonight. At least when Yang Shixuan arrived at the city god yamen at 7:30, he did not see this city god.
The huge court seemed very deserted. On the edge of the City God's case trial table, there was a simple-shaped small table. Behind the table was a middle-aged man with a mustache, with a feminine face and a faint light flashed in his eyes from time to time.
When Yang Shixuan was wearing an official uniform, a black hat, and looked cautious, he looked in from outside the door, the middle-aged man had already looked at him.
He looked at Yang Shixuan, dressed in a ninth-rank immortal official with a cold expression. The middle-aged man asked in a cold tone: "Are you Yang Shixuan, the ninth-rank immortal official who was transferred to my Wuhong County City God Yamen?"
When talking about the three words "Nine-grade" , the middle-aged man's voice was deliberately aggravated a little.
When Yang Shixuan saw the lonely appearance in the City God Yamen, he couldn't help but be stunned. When he heard the middle-aged man's questioning, he subconsciously asked, "Is the City God not here?"
"Don't you have eyes on yourself?" The middle-aged man glared at Yang Shixuan, showed off his power, and swept over Yang Shixuan with contemptuous look, "City God is the one you can see whenever you want? A boy who doesn't understand the rules!"
A sense of arrogance that hits the face makes Yang Shixuan, who is used to being free and unrestrained, feel very unhappy. However, when he first arrived, he still deceives the world and has made him go to this point by cheating, but Yang Shixuan chooses to endure, but the arrogant expression of the middle-aged man was deeply imprinted in his mind.
After adjusting his mentality slightly and stabilizing his mind, Yang Shixuan bowed to the middle-aged man in a regular manner and said, "The official has just arrived, and there are still many things he doesn't understand. If there is any offense, please forgive me... I wonder if I am the one?"
"Yin and Yang Secretary, Zhao Litang." The middle-aged man said with a slut.
Yang Shixuan immediately showed a look of shock, which greatly satisfied the middle-aged man's vanity. He bowed and clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that it is Lord Zhao from Yin and Yang Department. The lower official has no eyes to recognize Mount Tai. Please don't take it to heart."
"Yeah." Zhao Litang made a long "Yeah" sound from his nose, then he looked at Yang Shixuan coldly and asked, "Are you here to report today?"
"Mr. Zhao is indeed very keen. The officials are indeed here to report." Yang Shixuan nodded, and at the same time he did not forget to give him a slander. Anyway, the elders of the master's sect were almost slapped him and he would vomit. One more sentence less, and no piece of meat would fall off.
Unfortunately, Yang Shixuan's official title is too low. Zhao Litang, who is three levels higher than him, has a strong immune ability to Yang Shixuan's frank words. He did not have even a little bit of favor for Yang Shixuan because of his sweet-mouthed and respectful attitude.
His expression was still cold. After looking at Yang Shixuan, he reached out to flip through the stack of paper on the table casually, then pulled out a thin piece of white paper, picked up a pen and wrote a line of words on the paper, "I ordered Yang Shixuan, the ninth-rank immortal official, to report to the department to take office, and Zhao Litang, Yin and Yang Department."
After writing this line of words, he took out a seal with a texture similar to that of Yang Shixuan's official seal and gently covered it on the paper. The moment he was stamped, a hazy white light lit up at the contact point of the seal and the white paper. After moving the official seal away, a mysterious energy fluctuation appeared on the white paper.
This kind of energy fluctuation is fixed, and different official seals can leave different fluctuation frequencies. It is this kind of energy fluctuation that represents the identities of different immortal officials and cannot be imitated at all.
Seeing that Zhao Litang had written this note, Yang Shixuan wanted to thank him and went up to take the note, but who would have thought that after Zhao Litang finished writing it, he threw it out and said impatiently: "Go and go, don't stand here annoyance!"
The white paper covered with Zhao Litang's official seal fell to the ground, and Yang Shixuan, who wanted to come forward to thank him, froze directly there and looked at Zhao Litang steadily.
Perhaps because he noticed Yang Shixuan's gaze, Zhao Litang raised his head slightly and looked at him contemptuously, and asked in a faint tone: "Why, is there anything else?"
Yang Shixuan moved his gaze away, stepped forward and silently picked up the notes on the ground, then lowered his head and said, "Thank you, sir..."
With the note, Yang Shixuan turned around and left the court. Zhao Litang, who was sitting at the court trial table, looked at his back with contempt and said in a heavy voice, "The frizzy boy who doesn't understand the rules, see how I deal with you!"
Yang Shixuan, who had already reached the door, froze slightly, but then he returned to nature and walked out of the door without looking back.
However, his hands were already tightening his fists...
Yang Shixuan didn't know that Zhao Litang had received many benefits and promised to transfer people to the Quick Reporting Office to be an immortal official from the ninth grade. But who knew that at this critical moment, Yang Shixuan was airborne again inexplicably? With this contradiction, how could Zhao Litang give Yang Shixuan a lack of background? It doesn't matter. How could he look at the face of a little fairy official from the ninth grade?
