I traveled through infinite nightmare events

"Is this... okay? Corrupt officials should be punished by everyone!" Gu Qiu scratched his head. This city god was quite energetic, but he couldn't be said to be evil.

But the waiter rolled his eyes and said in a low voice, "If this is all, forget it. Just like what you said, guest officer, everyone will punish corrupt officials, but we people in Yangcheng County will Beat gongs and drums to reshape the city god into a golden body, but...!"

"But what?" Gu Qiu asked.

The waiter whispered, "But then this matter got out of control. It's true that corrupt officials died, and the people in the county began to suffer. The tofu Xishi in the tofu shop used second-class soybeans because of petty advantage. When I woke up, I had the word "profiteer" on my face, and all the beans in the tofu shop sprouted overnight, and I lost a lot of money."

"Although the gentleman from the academy is not very good, he has been working hard over the years to educate the children. However, when he woke up, there were four big words on his face that could not be wiped off. He spent most of his life. The books I purchased were also burned completely overnight.”

"There are many similar things. For several days, something happened to someone. If you say bad things about these people, they are definitely not bad people. At most, they are greedy for petty advantages, or they are not that good. But there is no crime in that! Do you think so?" The waiter said helplessly.

Gu Qiu clicked his tongue and said, "What happened next! Didn't you push down the City God's Temple? Did the words on these people's faces disappear?!"

The waiter shook his head and said, "No, but nothing happened to anyone after that. Tofu Xishi and Mr. Academy are both going out with their faces covered now. They are in our Yangshan County. It would be miserable if they were in another place."

Gu Qiu thought about it in his mind and asked, "Where is the old site of the City God's Temple?"

The waiter was stunned by Gu Qiu's question and said with some embarrassment, "Sir, it's not that I won't reply to you, it's mainly because I came late. Although I know these things, I really don't know the old site of the City God's Temple..."

"Does anyone know?" Gu Qiu asked.

The waiter said, "If you really want to know, the owner of the paper-making shop in the county heard that he was once the temple minister of the City God's Temple. You can ask him, but if he tells you, I dare not tell you."

"Okay, then go and do your thing!" Gu Qiu nodded, and after the waiter left, he tapped his fingers slightly on the table. A rampaging city god was really interesting.

After having a meal at the inn, Gu Qiu went out and went straight to the county paper-making shop. When he arrived, he saw an old man who was blind sitting in the shop, fumbling with his hands while doing paper-making work. .

"Boss." Gu Qiu shouted.

"You want to buy something." The old man turned to where Gu Qiu was and said with a smile on his face, "Guest, I will draw circles here, paper figures, and all kinds of hand-made things. They are all good craftsmanship. If you burn them for the deceased Friends and relatives, I’m sure they will like it.”

Gu Qiu scratched his head and could only say, "Boss, I don't want to buy anything, I want to inquire about something."

"Eh!? Guest, please help me take a look." The old man said suddenly.

"What are you looking at?" Gu Qiu asked doubtfully.

"Let's see if my sign is hanging wrong. This is not a teahouse. Why do you always come to me to ask questions!?" The old man's expression was obviously not very good.

"Besides me, is there anyone else?" Gu Qiu asked.

"Well, yesterday someone, probably a young man, asked me something and lost a piece of silver." The old man nodded and grinned. Gu Qiu saw that his teeth were yellow and orange, and looked at Disgusting.

"Look, I don't understand the rules, so what now?" Gu Qiu took out a broken piece of silver and placed it in front of the old man.

Although the old man was blind, his nose twitched twice, and he accurately felt the smell of the silver. He grinned and said, "Sir, you are laughing, but tell me, why does this silver smell so good?"

"Does silver have a taste?" Gu Qiu asked with a smile.

The old man nodded and said, "Of course, the heavier the silver, the stronger the taste."

"Then I have to ask you, what does this silver taste like?" Gu Qiu asked curiously.

The old man smiled and said, "What does it smell like? It smells like wealth. Don't think I'm fooling you. Think about it. Poor people use copper coins at most. Who can afford silver? Anyone who can afford silver is not too poor. This silver You can hold banquets and buy gouache, which tastes like gourmet food or beauty. How rich do you think this is?"

Gu Qiu also grinned and said, "Then you think this rich man also needs to go to the toilet, right?"

"Haha, the guest is right." The old man put the silver on the tip of his nose with a smile, and then said, "But you said that the rich man's toilet, what he pulls out must be better than what the poor eat in?"

"...What you said is a bit harsh." Gu Qiu clicked his tongue.

The old man smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! What do you want to know, my guest? Just ask, and tell me everything you know."

Gu Qiu nodded slightly, but when he realized that the other party could not see him, he said, "I would like to ask, where is the old site of the City God's Temple?"

The old man was not surprised and said with a smile, "I can make a profit by selling one piece of news for two pieces. The City God's Temple was demolished thirteen years ago. To tell the truth, even if I go there in person, I won't be able to tell you the original location now." I can’t find it, but I can tell you a way.”

"Say." Gu Qiu said.

The old man's eyelids trembled and he said slowly, "You can choose night, a moonless day, and carry a white lantern with a thumb-thick, three-inch-long red candle inside. You can buy it in the nearby grocery store."

As the old man spoke, he put the silver into his arms and continued, "Go west from the entrance of the county, hold a lantern on the main road, and when you reach a locust tree, follow the path."

The old man licked his dry lips, as if remembering, and then continued, "Keep going forward and stop when the candle is half burned. You should reach a wasteland by now."

"There is a big stone in the middle of the wasteland. You sit on the stone with the lantern facing north and the people facing south. When the candles burn out and the lantern goes out...you open your eyes again and you will see the City God's Temple."

Gu Qiu raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "Old man, this is not a serious way to go to the City God's Temple."

The old man also smiled and said, "Guest, since you are here, how can you be a serious person looking for the Chenghuang Temple? I think... you are satisfied with my answer."

"That's true. That's troublesome, old man." Gu Qiu handed over his hands, turned around and was about to leave, then turned back and said, "Old man, the smell of blood is so strong in the shop."

The old man patted the money on his chest and said with a smile, "I made a lot of money yesterday, so naturally I have to buy some chickens and ducks to beat my teeth. The restaurant is too expensive, so I can only buy them and kill them myself."

"Oh!" Gu Qiu smiled, turned and left.

The old man waited for Gu Qiu to leave, then got up and walked into the backyard of the shop. He saw a naked body lying on the ground in the backyard. The old man's closed eyes suddenly opened. He looked at the corpse and said with a smile, "Smart people... die quickly!"
