Chapter 405 Trouble Is Coming

"Tsk tsk, this county government building is quite magnificent. Some people in the east of the city even have roof leaks..."

Xiaoqing followed Lin Chen into the Beiguo County government office, still talking unforgivingly and chattering endlessly.

However, as soon as Xiaoqing finished saying this, she met her sister's eyes without much emotion, smiled coquettishly and then closed her mouth.

Lin Chen didn't feel offended.

After all, as the county magistrate, he was a newcomer.

If we really wanted to talk about it, we would have to find several magistrates of Beiguo County to take the blame.

Lin Chen, who followed Xiaoqing all the way to the county government office, couldn't help but glance at the courtyard in front of him.

Green bamboos, green willows, and a small pond serve as decorations.

I have to say that literati everywhere are the same.

It may not be possible to let him do practical things, but his arty taste is full of thought.

But.

Lin Chen looked at the strange wind blowing the bamboo leaves in the courtyard from time to time, and his eyes subconsciously fell on the backyard hall.

According to Wang County Cheng, the previous county magistrate died tragically in his bedroom.

Now that he was there, Lin Chen could feel an eerie chill spreading in the backyard.

This allowed him to instinctively run the Pure Yang Dao Jue, and the true energy flowed through his body, and the coldness just faded away.

There is something really weird about this place.

Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, with a bit of caution in his eyes.

Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing, on the other hand, seemed to be okay with the strange situation and still had fun joking around.

"Sister, it's strange, why is the Five Poison Ghost's resentment still lingering?"

Xiaoqing looked somewhere in the house and couldn't help but be surprised.

When Bai Suzhen heard this, her beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she was also thinking about something.

"It doesn't matter. Although the Five Poison Ghosts have absorbed the resentment in Beiguo County, it is nothing to worry about."

Say it.

I saw this white lady holding the magic formula with her hands, and a touch of white practice fell somewhere in the courtyard.

Buzz!

Lin Chen caught a glimpse of the ripples in the water.

really.

The Five Poison Ghosts were indeed restrained by Bai Suzhen, so they did not bring trouble to Beiguo County.

This thought flashed through Lin Chen's mind while staring at Xiao Qing's figure.

He wanted to see the skills of a successful demon.

At the moment when the seal was broken, Lin Chen suddenly heard a sharp roar in his ears.

This voice was filled with endless resentment.

So hungry, so thirsty, so tired, money, more money!

Many distracting thoughts popped up in Lin Chen's mind like weeds.

However.

Lin Chen just calmed down slightly and silently recited the general outline of the Chunyang Tao Jue.

While Bai Suzhen watched Xiaoqing subduing the Five Poison Ghosts, she did not forget to pay attention to the situation of the county magistrate.

Don't look at the two of them describing the Five Poison Ghosts as a trivial matter.

However, only practitioners know how terrifying these five poison ghosts, which are formed by gathering the resentment of tens of thousands of dead people, are!

without any exaggeration.

It doesn't take long to turn a county town of 10,000 people into a monster.

Therefore, the leaked aftermath of the battle between the Five Poison Ghosts and Xiao Qing may make ordinary people confused, as if they have had a nightmare.

Looking at the county magistrate again, he woke up in just a moment.

This immortal cultivator's fighting method does not have much grandeur, only inconspicuous magic tricks flying around.

Lin Chen looked at the spell cast in Xiao Qing's hand, and instinctively told him that even a warrior at the peak of his innate ability would have to report to the underworld in an instant if he was hit.

The Five Poison Ghosts, which were like a ball of black energy, had not yet condensed into a human form, only the ferocious human face appeared on the surface from time to time.

Buzz~

Lin Chen felt a heat in his chest and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

But it's a familiar object.

It is the official seal of the magistrate of Beiguo County.

Lin Chen held the official seal in his hand and saw that it was emitting some kind of glimmer of jade.

In front of this light, the evil spirit of the Five Poison Ghosts completely dissipated as if they encountered their nemesis.

Lin Chen looked thoughtful at this scene.

When he was in Luanhuai Forest, this official seal protected him.

It seems so.

Perhaps the court officials in this world have some kind of protection?

Is this the dynasty dragon energy mentioned in some mythical stories?

The so-called dynasty dragon energy complements the destiny of the country and can ward off all evils and prevent spirits from approaching.

certainly.

This official seal must have an upper limit.

Otherwise, the previous county magistrate would not have died tragically at the hands of the Five Poison Ghosts.

at the same time.

Accompanied by waves of unwilling roars, the ferocious Five Poison Evil Ghost was suddenly hit by a Qi Qing Dao Jue issued by Xiao Qing while it was struggling.

Only a shrill howl was heard, and the five poisonous evil spirits instantly turned into a wisp of nothingness and dissipated between heaven and earth.

"Done!"

Xiaoqing patted the dust in her hands and came to her sister to ask for praise.

I can tell.

Xiaoqing didn't seem to have much trouble dealing with these five poisonous ghosts.

Should it be said that he is worthy of being the great demon who has achieved great success in cultivation in the original book? !

You know, when Bai Suzhen and Xu Xian met, their practice was enough to ascend to the immortal class in a day.

In addition, Bai Suzhen has the giant Buddha of Lishan Old Mother on her back, and she will surely be a happy fairy and enjoy her years in peace when she goes to heaven.

However, his fate was like a calamity, and he was forced to live under the Leifeng Pagoda for twenty years.

"Um?"

Sister Bai inadvertently noticed that Lin Chen looked at her with a hint of pity.

Weird.

Bai Suzhen was surprised but didn't care, thinking that she might have made a mistake.

"County Magistrate Lin, after these five poisonous ghosts are dealt with, the county government can live in peace in the back hall from now on."

Lin Chen nodded when he heard this.

But Bai Suzhen has a character who can't hide things on her face.

He had noticed earlier that Bai Suzhen seemed to have something important to say.

"Miss Bai, do you have anything to tell me?"

Lin Chen did not hide anything and went straight to the point.

"To be honest, sir, I do have something to tell you."

Then, Lin Chen noticed a hint of hesitation on Bai Suzhen's delicate face.

It seemed as if she was hesitating whether to say it or not.

This made Lin Chen interested. What could make Bai Suzhen so embarrassed?

"Well, sir, do you know what the river outside Beiguo County is called?"

"River?"

Lin Chen was startled when he heard this.

There is indeed a big river outside Beiguo County.

The locals call it Qingsha River.

It is said that this river is a tributary of Weishui River, passing through Beiguo County and finally flowing into the sea.

When he dug the canal, he intended to divert the water of Qingsha River to irrigate farmland.

When the canal is completed, it will be enough to benefit thousands of acres of farmland.

Bai Suzhen said in embarrassment: "My Lord, I don't know that last night a common woman, a yaksha, came to report that the Lord of Qingsha River had some complaints about this matter."

"Lord of Qingsha River?"

Lin Chen reacted immediately.

In the world of Liaozhai, let alone rivers, even a well or a pond may have a water dragon clan in charge.

The so-called water dragon clan.

It is the descendants of the Sea Dragon King in many mythological stories.

These dragon sons and grandsons, appointed by heaven, were all sealed in various places in the Central Plains.

From this point of view, it is not surprising that there is a river lord guarding the Qingsha River.

After all, this river is magnificent and can be regarded as a big river. The river lord guarding it may have a great background.

As for why Bai Suzhen had a yaksha to report the news, it is even simpler.

Because she is a disciple of Lishan Laomu.

The Taoist name of Lishan Laomu is Yuqing Shengzu Ziyuanjun, an ancient righteous god who existed during the ancient Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

At the same time, this ancestor of female immortals also has a close relationship with Nuwa!
