Chapter 237 A powerful family
Qianzhou County, Qianzhou City.
Caishikou in the west of the city was where criminals were beheaded.
At this time, there were already thousands of criminals trapped in Xingtai.
Zhou Ping was sitting on a stool, with the Holy Maiden of Tianzong floating above his head.
Emperor Jingdi took special measures and directly sentenced thousands of death row prisoners to death as a warning to others.
Zhou Ping knew that this was to build momentum for the Holy Maiden of Tianzong.
Zhou Ping killed the man, but the fame went to the Saint.
"Anyone should kill the parasites of the country." The Saintess of Tianzong spoke slowly.
The common people burst into cheers.
The people have suffered from corrupt officials for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, thousands of heads fell to the ground.
The Holy Maiden of Tianzong made a hand seal and grass grew on the corpses, followed by flowers, and then they rotted into ashes.
Soon, even the traces of blood on the ground disappeared, and there was no bloody smell anymore. Instead, the ground was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants.
"Long live the Saint, long live the Saint."
The people of Qianzhou County knelt down one after another.
At this time, in a cave in Qianzhou City.
In the dim room, Zhao Tiancheng was lying on a stone platform with a terrified look on his face.
"Pangolin, pangolin."
Zhao Tiancheng kept roaring, but no one responded to him.
Then, on another stone platform, County Magistrate Zhao slowly lay down.
They were both naked.
However, County Magistrate Zhao had a big belly and no testicles, while Zhao Tiancheng looked extremely young and strong.
"Dad, I'm your son, how can you treat me like this?" There was fear and anger in Zhao Tiancheng's eyes.
The governor of Zhao County said with a smile: "Son, I don't want to use your body, but I want to serve His Majesty. It was His Majesty who gave us a life of luxury. Now that His Majesty has eaten the immortal grass and can live another life, I must also serve Him well for another life."
Zhao Tiancheng wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
Undead Joe came to Zhao Tiancheng and stuck a few needles into his head.
Although Zhao Tiancheng no longer felt pain, he was still conscious. He watched as Undead Joe chopped off his neck with a knife.
Immediately afterwards, Immortal Joe chopped off the head of County Magistrate Zhao.
Immortal Joe doesn't want to change his soul, but his body.
He wanted to replace the head of Zhao Junshou with Zhao Tiancheng's body.
Zhao Tiancheng watched helplessly as his body left him and then transferred to the body of Zhao Junshou.
However, Zhao Tiancheng was horrified to find that the other party had no intention of replacing Zhao Junshou's body with his own.
"I want your body." Zhao Tiancheng used all his strength to squeeze out two words.
Zhao Jun Shou looked at his son and said, "My son, you couldn't tell the difference between the big and small kings in the secret realm, and you were disrespectful to His Majesty. I wanted to kill you at that time! You'd better not want my body anymore, since you don't like my old body anyway."
"No, I like her." Zhao Tiancheng wanted to say something, but the pupils in his eyes had slowly dilated.
Undying Qiao chuckled and said, "Congratulations to the governor of Zhao for regaining his youth. In a few days, His Majesty will definitely entrust him with important tasks."
The two walked out of the room while talking.
In this cave, there are thousands of rooms filled with operating tables like this.
And on the operating table, there were various corpses being dissected.
It was in this place that Immortan Joe dissected tens of thousands of people before he developed the art of body swapping, which is much more reliable than the art of soul swapping.
As long as you take the medication regularly, you can counteract the rejection reaction.
"Over the past thirty years, a total of three hundred million taels of silver have been spent."
"That includes 53,431 lives."
"The youngest is a baby who is less than a month old, and the oldest is a man in his seventies."
"There are both men and women among them. We have done a lot to achieve immortality."
The governor of Zhao County could not help but sigh.
Undying Joe nodded and said, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and finally developed something to serve Your Majesty. However, I did not expect Your Majesty to be so blessed that he actually obtained the Undying Grass."
As the two were talking, bursts of terrible screams were heard in the cave.
There are many experimental subjects and many staff members in the cave.
Wu Wudi is killing them one by one.
Finally, outside the cave, the three of them walked out together.
The governor of Zhao County escaped, but Emperor Jing still valued him, and the three of them will start a new life.
However, outside the cave, a man was waiting for the three people with a human head.
This man is none other than Zhou Ping!
Zhou Ping caught a human trafficker on the street and killed the person to take his soul.
Because he found that many people disappeared in the market for no reason, Zhou Ping wanted to find out where the missing people had gone.
Finally Zhou Ping discovered the secret cave.
The traffickers sent the kidnapped people into the cave.
And the recipient was none other than the Governor of Zhao County!
"Zhou Ping!" County Magistrate Zhao's face changed drastically.
Wu Wudi and Undying Joe also felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.
The moment Wu Wudi saw Zhou Ping, he immediately turned around and left. He had fought with Zhou Ping in the secret realm and had long lost the desire to fight.
So Wu Wudi knew that he had to escape and spread the news.
However, the next moment, a faint blood mark appeared on Wu Wudi's neck, and then he fell to the ground.
Immortal Joe also wanted to escape, but he couldn't.
Zhou Ping unfolded the map of mountains and rivers and trapped the two people in it.
Zhou Ping came to Wu Wudi, devoured his soul, and then entered the cave.
When Zhou Ping left the cave, his face was gloomy.
The scene in the cave was like hell. He had never imagined that human beings would commit such atrocities against human beings.
"Eternal Life, Emperor Jing?"
Zhou Ping left Qianzhou County amid the gratitude and worship of the people of Qianzhou County.
Dali Temple, Temple Secretary.
This official is neither big nor small.
For Zhou Ping, as long as he has the power to enforce the law, that's enough.
During the past month, Zhou Ping's efficiency was extremely high. He pulled out all the radishes and brought out the mud, and his main goal was to arrest all the officials.
Zhou Ping has a demon seed that can devour memories, and after killing a few people he can also find evidence of corruption among officials.
Not only that, Zhou Ping also has the help of the Demon Cult.
Zhuque also helped collect a lot of evidence with the cult members in the dark.
Therefore, in the end, 90% of the officials in Qianzhou County were convicted and imprisoned.
Kyoto.
Zhou Ping brought Liu Ruyan into the capital.
Fan Shiyi stretched lazily: "Now that we are in Kyoto, we are in my territory. I can take you wherever you want to go!"
Zhou Ping smiled calmly and said, "There's nothing I want to go for. I just want to take up my post right now."
"Yes, take office quickly and clear up the situation." Zhiqiu Yiye said while holding a piece of grass in his mouth.
In this trip, Zhou Ping brought not only Liu Ruyan, but also Zhiqiu Yiye and Xiao Baiyun.
After hearing about what Zhou Ping had done in Qianzhou County, the two men were willing to follow Zhou Ping's lead.
Fan Shiyi smiled and said, "At least let's find a place to eat first."
Fan Shiyi originally wanted to take Zhou Ping to a restaurant, but Zhou Ping wanted to keep things simple, so they found a roadside stall.
This snack street is the only way to enter Kyoto, and there are many delicious foods in it.
Everyone who enters Kyoto stops here.
"Mr. Fan, you have never eaten at a roadside stall, right?" Zhou Ping said with a smile.
Fan Shiyi had naturally never eaten in such a place.
Zhou Ping looked at her with a slightly disdainful look and said teasingly, "You are a man of great learning and you associate with no ordinary people."
Fan Shiyi was stunned at first, then immediately understood what Zhou Ping meant. She said angrily, "Zhou Ping, don't be so vulgar!"
Zhou Ping did not comment.
After they ate the noodles, Zhou Ping paid the bill and prepared to leave.
"No, you can't leave. The money is wrong." The shopkeeper stopped Zhou Ping.
The shop owner was a thin middle-aged man with a look of fear and determination in his eyes.
Zhou Ping and others all frowned slightly.
Zhou Ping thought the shopkeeper had made a mistake in his calculation, so he paid the shopkeeper more money. It was only a few cents, so Zhou Ping didn't care.
However, what no one expected was.
Soon after, many people emerged from the alley.
These people beat drums and gongs.
"Come and see! Zhou Ping, the first Confucian of the young generation, wrote countless good poems, but he actually cheated people out of their money!" the vendor shouted.
Then, various cultivators and people in official attire jumped out of the alley.
Fan Shiyi's expression changed slightly: "Someone is setting a trap for me."
Zhou Ping had no expression on his face, and there was even some viciousness in his eyes: "As expected of the capital, the tricks here are different."
Someone in Kyoto had already arranged everything. They wanted to discredit Zhou Ping, bring him down from his position as the chief minister of the Dali Temple.
The small vendors were immediately surrounded by people.
These people are all actors.
"Look everyone, this is Zhou Ping, the Zhou Ping who wrote the best poems. He clearly ate two bowls of my noodles, but he wanted to give me only one bowl of noodles."
The street vendor said in anger.
"Donor, you can't lie. Zhou Ping clearly ate one bowl of noodles just now. How can you say he ate two bowls of noodles?" Xiao Baiyun said seriously.
Zhiqiu Yiye also had a bad temper. He didn't understand that someone was trying to frame Zhou Ping, so he said, "You, the vendor, actually lied. Even if we miscalculated, Zhou Ping wanted to give you money just now!"
"Zhou Ping, this is a dilemma." Fan Shiyi said worriedly, "No matter how you deal with this matter, he is a vulnerable group, and you will be splashed with dirty water. You will either lose the support of the people or you will not be able to serve as an official."
Zhou Ping nodded and asked calmly, "Eleven, how many snacks do you think there are on this street?"
Fan Shiyi looked around and said, "There are at least a few hundred of them." Zhou Ping said, "I'm curious, how did they know we would stop at this snack stand?"
Fan Shiyi was slightly stunned. Yes, there are hundreds of snack bars, why is it so obvious that others set up a trap.
Soon, Fan Shiyi realized that no matter where Zhou Ping ate in the hundreds of stalls in the entire snack street, he would be attacked.
What a deep power, what a calculation!
Fan Shiyi also felt a chill down her spine. She had always been writing poetry and rarely paid attention to worldly affairs. She had never expected that the secular world could be so vicious.
Then, four people in official robes walked out from the crowd.
The four people are Chen Da, Li Si, Wang Wu and Ma San.
These four people are in charge of this area.
Four people came in front of Zhou Ping.
"Zhou Ping, with your status, do you still need to cheat others out of their money?"
"Yeah, just admit your mistake and forget it."
The four of them were talking to each other, and they just wanted to discredit Zhou Ping.
Zhou Ping shook his head and then looked at the noodle vendor: "Shopkeeper, this is where you are wrong. You were clearly trying to curry favor with me by offering a buy one get one free deal. How could you deny it?"
Fan Shiyi, Zhiqiu Yiye, and Liu Ruyan were all slightly stunned.
Little Baiyun scratched his head: "Neither did I just now."
Zhiqiu Yiye slapped Xiao Baiyun on the head, and Xiao Baiyun shut up tactfully.
The vendor was anxious: "I didn't say buy one get one free!"
Zhou Ping shook his head: "It was you who was shouting just now. Look everyone, this is Zhou Ping, the Zhou Ping who wrote the best poems in the world. You know me and admire me, and you said you want to buy one and get one free!"
Zhou Ping looked at the four yamen runners again and said, "Brothers, this vendor clearly knows me and wanted to buy one get one free, but somehow he changed his mind. You must be more careful."
This time, it was the four people's turn to be confused.
This is different from the script. Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Zhou Ping perform a caesarean section to prove his innocence?
Chen Da said in a deep voice: "Old Lu, did you just say buy one get one free?"
The vendor surnamed Lu hurriedly explained: "No, I didn't say that."
Chen Da turned to Zhou Ping and said with a smile: "Zhou Ping, he said he didn't say buy one get one free."
Zhou Ping asked back, "How can he prove that he didn't say buy one get one free? Why do you believe him and not me? This is Buddhist Master Baiyun, this is Earth Sect Master Zhiqiu Yiye, this is Confucianist Fan Shiyi, why don't you believe them? Are you trying to frame me?"
Zhou Ping finished speaking.
I just heard a lot more noises on this street.
"The officials in Kyoto were afraid that Zhou Ping would find out their secrets, so they wanted to discredit Zhou Ping."
"Unfortunately, this method is not very clever."
"Yes, the officials in Kyoto are afraid of Zhou Ping and want to frame him. This small vendor really deserves death. Doesn't he know that Zhou Ping stands with ordinary people like him?"
Chen Da and his companions were shocked. The people here were all their people, and they just wanted to create public opinion to discredit Zhou Ping.
However, who are these people who tell the truth?
Ma San said, "Boss Chen, these people who are talking are not our people! They are all from other places."
Zhou Ping smiled faintly. Those who were talking were all members of the Demon Cult. Zhuque arranged for them to protect Zhou Ping, and they came in handy at this moment.
Zhou Ping told the truth, and the members of the cult spread it loudly.
Then, the two voices began to confront each other.
"No, Zhou Ping ate two bowls of noodles and only paid for one bowl."
"You're wrong. The vendor said buy one get one free. How do you prove he didn't lie?"
Zhou Ping’s routine is very simple. You set up the position before I had even finished two bowls of noodles, and you have already put a lot of effort into it. Naturally, I will not waste time fighting with you on this position.
What Zhou Ping needs to do is to shift the battlefield to a new one: You said buy one get one free, and since you said you didn't say that, then okay, then you just prove why you didn't say that.
Chen Da and the other three had gloomy expressions on their faces. They didn't expect Zhou Ping to be so sophistry and not play by the rules at all.
"Everyone, it's actually very simple to prove whether my husband has eaten two bowls of noodles." Liu Ruyan said softly.
In an instant, the whole street became quiet.
Liu Ruyan just waved her hand, and the vendor's eyes were instantly taken out and put into Liu Ruyan's hands, leaving only two holes in the vendor's eyes.
"Ah, it hurts, my eyes." The vendor fell to his knees, wailing in pain.
The wailing sound spread throughout the street!
Zhou Ping cooperated by swallowing the two eyeballs, and then took them out.
Liu Ruyan returned her eyes to the vendor.
Liu Ruyan asked, "Did you see clearly how many bowls of noodles my husband ate? If not, go in and take a look again."
Liu Ruyan looked at Chen Da and the other four captains and said, "Do you want to go inside my husband's stomach and take a look? I will return my eyes to you anyway."
Chen Da and others retreated one after another.
Zhiqiu Yiye chuckled, he knew that it was Liu Ruyan's trick. It was actually just an illusion, and the vendor's eyes were not taken off.
But the pain felt by the street vendors is the most real.
Zhiqiu Yiye came to the vendor again and said, "Tell me, how many bowls of noodles did Zhou Ping eat?"
The street vendor touched his eyes that he had just found, feeling as if he had survived a calamity. The pain he had just felt was the worst pain in his life!
This kind of pain can only be endured once, not twice.
"Two bowls!" the vendor said through gritting his teeth.
The small vendors and other vendors had already been taught how to defraud Zhou Ping.
If the scheme is successful, each person can get tens of thousands of taels of gold.
However, if the scam fails, the person behind the scenes will send the women in the vendor's family to work as prostitutes in the Jiaofangsi, and will castrate the men in the vendor's family to become eunuchs.
So the small vendors have to hold on.
The vendor looked at Zhou Ping and suddenly knelt down on the ground: "Uncle, you are a good man. We have all heard of your deeds. Please spare my life and admit that you ate two bowls of noodles."
"Damn it, good people are bound to be cheated by bad people, right? You are afraid of the bad people who hurt you, but you are not afraid of the good people who help you." Zhiqiu Yiye couldn't help but swear, then he waved his hand, and two eyeballs fell into his hands.
The street vendor rolled over on the ground, wailing in pain.
Zhou Ping once again cooperated with Zhiqiu Yiye to perform the eye-swallowing scene.
Not only that, Zhiqiu Yiye looked at the people acting around him and said, "Who else is willing to testify? I'll let you all look into Zhou Ping's stomach."
Everyone stepped back immediately.
Even Chen Da and his companions took a few steps back.
Their cultivation level was less than the third rank, and they were simply unable to resist Zhiqiu Yiye.
Amid the wailing of the vendors, a woman rushed out, crying heartbreakingly: "Boss, just tell the truth."
Zhiqiu Yiye knew the time had come, so he returned the eyeball to the vendor.
The vendor was still terrified. He didn't understand why these righteous people, these good guys, could be so cruel.
Fan Shiyi looked at Zhou Ping and sighed silently. She finally understood what Zhou Ping meant by "a heart of a bodhisattva but means of the devil".
If he doesn't do this today, Zhou Ping's goal of rectifying the administration of officials and clarifying Yu Yu will not be achieved.
At this time, the image of Zhou Ping in Fan Shiyi's mind had already become a mountain. Zhou Ping was not only good at writing poems, but more importantly, his character was far more mature than Fan Shiyi's.
"Old man, if you don't say it, I will. When will this kind of life end? Even if the store can be opened today, sooner or later we will be forced into prostitution even if we are not driven to death." The wife of the small vendor said while crying.
"I believe in Master Zhou Ping!"
"Master Zhou Ping, someone bribed the vendors on this street to slander you. They don't want you to be an official in Kyoto and are afraid that you will arrest them."
As soon as the woman finished speaking, a stone suddenly flew from the sky.
The stone was flying too fast and Zhou Ping wanted to catch it.
However, the next moment, several more stones flew over.
Zhou Ping caught one, but didn't catch more.
A hole appeared between the woman's eyebrows, and then she fell to the ground.
Zhou Ping was furious: "The best in the world! I don't care who you are, I will destroy your entire clan!"
Zhou Ping had just solved his own troubles and was ready to use this breakthrough to find more corrupt officials, but the evidence was killed.
Zhou Ping has already reached the first-grade cultivation level. To be able to kill someone in front of him, one must be a first-grade cultivator!
Fan Zhongfu said that since the death of Pudu Cihang, there were only four people left in the first rank of the Wei Dynasty.
Fan Zhongfu, Zhang Ziling, and two other top-notch masters in Kyoto, one is a warrior and the other is a Taoist priest.
Zhou Ping has already put these two people on the death list.
"Old woman, old woman, I've already said it, we can offend good people, but we can't afford to offend bad people." The street vendor hugged the woman's body and cried bitterly.
Zhou Ping felt a little tired. He knew that since he had chosen this path, he would have to face all kinds of attacks, and would be harmed by the ignorant lower-class people.
But he still overestimated his own heart.
You can offend good people, but you can't afford to offend bad people.
Do I really have the determination to keep going?
At this time, Fan Shiyi patted Zhou Ping's shoulder. She could read the sadness in Zhou Ping's eyes: "Zhou Ping, I believe you can do it."
Zhou Ping smiled sadly: "Maybe."
into the night.
Chen Da, Ma San, Wang Wu and Li Si were drinking in the restaurant.
These four people are the main characters who framed Zhou Ping.
However, the four people were surprised by Zhou Ping's method.
In the end, the matter of the fans came to nothing.
"The elders in my family are very concerned about this matter. They have given me many warnings and instructions, but I didn't expect that I still messed it up." Chen Da said in a deep voice.
Li Si said: "Not only you, but also the elders in my family attach great importance to this matter."
"Forget it. Even if Zhou Ping escapes this time, can he escape many times? It's not like we haven't dealt with people like him before. If we want to deal with him, it's easy for us few to do it." Ma San said.
Wang Wu also said: "Yes, brothers, we are listed in the family tree. We control all kinds of people in Kyoto. There is nothing we can't handle."
Chen Da nodded and looked at the palace in the distance.
There are four mansions around the palace. These four mansions are said to have existed for nearly ten thousand years. They are the Chen family, the Ma family, the Wang family and the Li family.
The four of them are the spokespersons for four families in the headhunting business.
All industries in the Wei Dynasty, whether it is being an official or doing business, are controlled by the four major families.
There is nothing they cannot deal with.
"By the way, don't be unhappy, Boss Chen. Today it's my turn, Wang Wu, to take everyone to play with the bride. I have already found a good family, the Yuan family in the east of the city. They have a wonderful daughter-in-law." Wang Wu said with a lewd smile.
Some people like to sleep with the bride the most.
Chen Da smiled slightly when he heard Wang Wu's words, then looked at Ma San and said, "Ma San must line up at the back today. This guy has mysophobia, and I need to give him a good lesson."
"Oh, that won't do. I have mysophobia and I have to be the first one."
"No, you have to wash the pot for your brothers today!"

Qianzhou County, Qianzhou City.
Caishikou in the west of the city was where criminals were beheaded.
At this time, there were already thousands of criminals trapped in Xingtai.

"Anyone should kill the parasites of the country." The Saintess of Tianzong spoke slowly.
The common people burst into cheers.
The people have suffered from corrupt officials for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, thousands of heads fell to the ground.
The Holy Maiden of Tianzong made a hand seal and grass grew on the corpses, followed by flowers, and then they rotted into ashes.
Soon, even the traces of blood on the ground disappeared, and there was no bloody smell anymore. Instead, the ground was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants.
"Long live the Saint, long live the Saint."
The people of Qianzhou County knelt down one after another.
At this time, in a cave in Qianzhou City.
In the dim room, Zhao Tiancheng was lying on a stone platform with a terrified look on his face.
"Pangolin, pangolin."
Zhao Tiancheng kept roaring, but no one responded to him.
Then, on another stone platform, County Magistrate Zhao slowly lay down.
They were both naked.
However, County Magistrate Zhao had a big belly and no testicles, while Zhao Tiancheng looked extremely young and strong.
"Dad, I'm your son, how can you treat me like this?" There was fear and anger in Zhao Tiancheng's eyes.
The governor of Zhao County said with a smile: "Son, I don't want to use your body, but I want to serve His Majesty. It was His Majesty who gave us a life of luxury. Now that His Majesty has eaten the immortal grass and can live another life, I must also serve Him well for another life."
Zhao Tiancheng wanted to say something, but he couldn't.
Undead Joe came to Zhao Tiancheng and stuck a few needles into his head.
Although Zhao Tiancheng no longer felt pain, he was still conscious. He watched as Undead Joe chopped off his neck with a knife.
Immediately afterwards, Immortal Joe chopped off the head of County Magistrate Zhao.
Immortal Joe doesn't want to change his soul, but his body.
He wanted to replace the head of Zhao Junshou with Zhao Tiancheng's body.
Zhao Tiancheng watched helplessly as his body left him and then transferred to the body of Zhao Junshou.
However, Zhao Tiancheng was horrified to find that the other party had no intention of replacing Zhao Junshou's body with his own.
"I want your body." Zhao Tiancheng used all his strength to squeeze out two words.
Zhao Jun Shou looked at his son and said, "My son, you couldn't tell the difference between the big and small kings in the secret realm, and you were disrespectful to His Majesty. I wanted to kill you at that time! You'd better not want my body anymore, since you don't like my old body anyway."
"No, I like her." Zhao Tiancheng wanted to say something, but the pupils in his eyes had slowly dilated.
Undying Qiao chuckled and said, "Congratulations to the governor of Zhao for regaining his youth. In a few days, His Majesty will definitely entrust him with important tasks."
The two walked out of the room while talking.
In this cave, there are thousands of rooms filled with operating tables like this.
And on the operating table, there were various corpses being dissected.
It was in this place that Immortan Joe dissected tens of thousands of people before he developed the art of body swapping, which is much more reliable than the art of soul swapping.

The governor of Zhao County could not help but sigh.
Undying Joe nodded and said, "Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and finally developed something to serve Your Majesty. However, I did not expect Your Majesty to be so blessed that he actually obtained the Undying Grass."
As the two were talking, bursts of terrible screams were heard in the cave.
There are many experimental subjects and many staff members in the cave.
Wu Wudi is killing them one by one.
Finally, outside the cave, the three of them walked out together.
The governor of Zhao County escaped, but Emperor Jing still valued him, and the three of them will start a new life.
However, outside the cave, a man was waiting for the three people with a human head.
This man is none other than Zhou Ping!
Zhou Ping caught a human trafficker on the street and killed the person to take his soul.

Wu Wudi and Undying Joe also felt like they were facing a formidable enemy.

So Wu Wudi knew that he had to escape and spread the news.

Kyoto.
Zhou Ping brought Liu Ruyan into the capital.
Fan Shiyi stretched lazily: "Now that we are in Kyoto, we are in my territory. I can take you wherever you want to go!"
Zhou Ping smiled calmly and said, "There's nothing I want to go for. I just want to take up my post right now."
"Yes, take office quickly and clear up the situation." Zhiqiu Yiye said while holding a piece of grass in his mouth.
In this trip, Zhou Ping brought not only Liu Ruyan, but also Zhiqiu Yiye and Xiao Baiyun.
After hearing about what Zhou Ping had done in Qianzhou County, the two men were willing to follow Zhou Ping's lead.
Fan Shiyi smiled and said, "At least let's find a place to eat first."
Fan Shiyi originally wanted to take Zhou Ping to a restaurant, but Zhou Ping wanted to keep things simple, so they found a roadside stall.

"Mr. Fan, you have never eaten at a roadside stall, right?" Zhou Ping said with a smile.
Fan Shiyi had naturally never eaten in such a place.
Zhou Ping looked at her with a slightly disdainful look and said teasingly, "You are a man of great learning and you associate with no ordinary people."
Fan Shiyi was stunned at first, then immediately understood what Zhou Ping meant. She said angrily, "Zhou Ping, don't be so vulgar!"
Zhou Ping did not comment.
After they ate the noodles, Zhou Ping paid the bill and prepared to leave.
"No, you can't leave. The money is wrong." The shopkeeper stopped Zhou Ping.
The shop owner was a thin middle-aged man with a look of fear and determination in his eyes.
Zhou Ping and others all frowned slightly.
Zhou Ping thought the shopkeeper had made a mistake in his calculation, so he paid the shopkeeper more money. It was only a few cents, so Zhou Ping didn't care.
However, what no one expected was.
Soon after, many people emerged from the alley.
These people beat drums and gongs.
"Come and see! Zhou Ping, the first Confucian of the young generation, wrote countless good poems, but he actually cheated people out of their money!" the vendor shouted.

Fan Shiyi's expression changed slightly: "Someone is setting a trap for me."

Someone in Kyoto had already arranged everything. They wanted to discredit Zhou Ping, bring him down from his position as the chief minister of the Dali Temple.
The small vendors were immediately surrounded by people.
These people are all actors.
"Look everyone, this is Zhou Ping, the Zhou Ping who wrote the best poems. He clearly ate two bowls of my noodles, but he wanted to give me only one bowl of noodles."
The street vendor said in anger.
"Donor, you can't lie. Zhou Ping clearly ate one bowl of noodles just now. How can you say he ate two bowls of noodles?" Xiao Baiyun said seriously.
Zhiqiu Yiye also had a bad temper. He didn't understand that someone was trying to frame Zhou Ping, so he said, "You, the vendor, actually lied. Even if we miscalculated, Zhou Ping wanted to give you money just now!"
"Zhou Ping, this is a dilemma." Fan Shiyi said worriedly, "No matter how you deal with this matter, he is a vulnerable group, and you will be splashed with dirty water. You will either lose the support of the people or you will not be able to serve as an official."
Zhou Ping nodded and asked calmly, "Eleven, how many snacks do you think there are on this street?"
Fan Shiyi looked around and said, "There are at least a few hundred of them." Zhou Ping said, "I'm curious, how did they know we would stop at this snack stand?"
Fan Shiyi was slightly stunned. Yes, there are hundreds of snack bars, why is it so obvious that others set up a trap.
Soon, Fan Shiyi realized that no matter where Zhou Ping ate in the hundreds of stalls in the entire snack street, he would be attacked.
What a deep power, what a calculation!
Fan Shiyi also felt a chill down her spine. She had always been writing poetry and rarely paid attention to worldly affairs. She had never expected that the secular world could be so vicious.
Then, four people in official robes walked out from the crowd.
The four people are Chen Da, Li Si, Wang Wu and Ma San.
These four people are in charge of this area.
Four people came in front of Zhou Ping.
"Zhou Ping, with your status, do you still need to cheat others out of their money?"
"Yeah, just admit your mistake and forget it."
The four of them were talking to each other, and they just wanted to discredit Zhou Ping.
Zhou Ping shook his head and then looked at the noodle vendor: "Shopkeeper, this is where you are wrong. You were clearly trying to curry favor with me by offering a buy one get one free deal. How could you deny it?"
Fan Shiyi, Zhiqiu Yiye, and Liu Ruyan were all slightly stunned.
Little Baiyun scratched his head: "Neither did I just now."
Zhiqiu Yiye slapped Xiao Baiyun on the head, and Xiao Baiyun shut up tactfully.
The vendor was anxious: "I didn't say buy one get one free!"
Zhou Ping shook his head: "It was you who was shouting just now. Look everyone, this is Zhou Ping, the Zhou Ping who wrote the best poems in the world. You know me and admire me, and you said you want to buy one and get one free!"
Zhou Ping looked at the four yamen runners again and said, "Brothers, this vendor clearly knows me and wanted to buy one get one free, but somehow he changed his mind. You must be more careful."
This time, it was the four people's turn to be confused.
This is different from the script. Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Zhou Ping perform a caesarean section to prove his innocence?
Chen Da said in a deep voice: "Old Lu, did you just say buy one get one free?"
The vendor surnamed Lu hurriedly explained: "No, I didn't say that."
Chen Da turned to Zhou Ping and said with a smile: "Zhou Ping, he said he didn't say buy one get one free."
Zhou Ping asked back, "How can he prove that he didn't say buy one get one free? Why do you believe him and not me? This is Buddhist Master Baiyun, this is Earth Sect Master Zhiqiu Yiye, this is Confucianist Fan Shiyi, why don't you believe them? Are you trying to frame me?"
Zhou Ping finished speaking.
I just heard a lot more noises on this street.
"The officials in Kyoto were afraid that Zhou Ping would find out their secrets, so they wanted to discredit Zhou Ping."
"Unfortunately, this method is not very clever."
"Yes, the officials in Kyoto are afraid of Zhou Ping and want to frame him. This small vendor really deserves death. Doesn't he know that Zhou Ping stands with ordinary people like him?"
Chen Da and his companions were shocked. The people here were all their people, and they just wanted to create public opinion to discredit Zhou Ping.
However, who are these people who tell the truth?
Ma San said, "Boss Chen, these people who are talking are not our people! They are all from other places."
Zhou Ping smiled faintly. Those who were talking were all members of the Demon Cult. Zhuque arranged for them to protect Zhou Ping, and they came in handy at this moment.
Zhou Ping told the truth, and the members of the cult spread it loudly.
Then, the two voices began to confront each other.
"No, Zhou Ping ate two bowls of noodles and only paid for one bowl."
"You're wrong. The vendor said buy one get one free. How do you prove he didn't lie?"
Zhou Ping’s routine is very simple. You set up the position before I had even finished two bowls of noodles, and you have already put a lot of effort into it. Naturally, I will not waste time fighting with you on this position.
What Zhou Ping needs to do is to shift the battlefield to a new one: You said buy one get one free, and since you said you didn't say that, then okay, then you just prove why you didn't say that.
Chen Da and the other three had gloomy expressions on their faces. They didn't expect Zhou Ping to be so sophistry and not play by the rules at all.
"Everyone, it's actually very simple to prove whether my husband has eaten two bowls of noodles." Liu Ruyan said softly.
In an instant, the whole street became quiet.
Liu Ruyan just waved her hand, and the vendor's eyes were instantly taken out and put into Liu Ruyan's hands, leaving only two holes in the vendor's eyes.
"Ah, it hurts, my eyes." The vendor fell to his knees, wailing in pain.
The wailing sound spread throughout the street!
Zhou Ping cooperated by swallowing the two eyeballs, and then took them out.
Liu Ruyan returned her eyes to the vendor.
Liu Ruyan asked, "Did you see clearly how many bowls of noodles my husband ate? If not, go in and take a look again."
Liu Ruyan looked at Chen Da and the other four captains and said, "Do you want to go inside my husband's stomach and take a look? I will return my eyes to you anyway."
Chen Da and others retreated one after another.
Zhiqiu Yiye chuckled, he knew that it was Liu Ruyan's trick. It was actually just an illusion, and the vendor's eyes were not taken off.
But the pain felt by the street vendors is the most real.
Zhiqiu Yiye came to the vendor again and said, "Tell me, how many bowls of noodles did Zhou Ping eat?"
The street vendor touched his eyes that he had just found, feeling as if he had survived a calamity. The pain he had just felt was the worst pain in his life!
This kind of pain can only be endured once, not twice.
"Two bowls!" the vendor said through gritting his teeth.
The small vendors and other vendors had already been taught how to defraud Zhou Ping.
If the scheme is successful, each person can get tens of thousands of taels of gold.
However, if the scam fails, the person behind the scenes will send the women in the vendor's family to work as prostitutes in the Jiaofangsi, and will castrate the men in the vendor's family to become eunuchs.
So the small vendors have to hold on.
The vendor looked at Zhou Ping and suddenly knelt down on the ground: "Uncle, you are a good man. We have all heard of your deeds. Please spare my life and admit that you ate two bowls of noodles."
"Damn it, good people are bound to be cheated by bad people, right? You are afraid of the bad people who hurt you, but you are not afraid of the good people who help you." Zhiqiu Yiye couldn't help but swear, then he waved his hand, and two eyeballs fell into his hands.
The street vendor rolled over on the ground, wailing in pain.
Zhou Ping once again cooperated with Zhiqiu Yiye to perform the eye-swallowing scene.
Not only that, Zhiqiu Yiye looked at the people acting around him and said, "Who else is willing to testify? I'll let you all look into Zhou Ping's stomach."
Everyone stepped back immediately.
Even Chen Da and his companions took a few steps back.
Their cultivation level was less than the third rank, and they were simply unable to resist Zhiqiu Yiye.
Amid the wailing of the vendors, a woman rushed out, crying heartbreakingly: "Boss, just tell the truth."
Zhiqiu Yiye knew the time had come, so he returned the eyeball to the vendor.
The vendor was still terrified. He didn't understand why these righteous people, these good guys, could be so cruel.
Fan Shiyi looked at Zhou Ping and sighed silently. She finally understood what Zhou Ping meant by "a heart of a bodhisattva but means of the devil".
If he doesn't do this today, Zhou Ping's goal of rectifying the administration of officials and clarifying Yu Yu will not be achieved.
At this time, the image of Zhou Ping in Fan Shiyi's mind had already become a mountain. Zhou Ping was not only good at writing poems, but more importantly, his character was far more mature than Fan Shiyi's.
"Old man, if you don't say it, I will. When will this kind of life end? Even if the store can be opened today, sooner or later we will be forced into prostitution even if we are not driven to death." The wife of the small vendor said while crying.
"I believe in Master Zhou Ping!"
"Master Zhou Ping, someone bribed the vendors on this street to slander you. They don't want you to be an official in Kyoto and are afraid that you will arrest them."
As soon as the woman finished speaking, a stone suddenly flew from the sky.
The stone was flying too fast and Zhou Ping wanted to catch it.
However, the next moment, several more stones flew over.
Zhou Ping caught one, but didn't catch more.
A hole appeared between the woman's eyebrows, and then she fell to the ground.
Zhou Ping was furious: "The best in the world! I don't care who you are, I will destroy your entire clan!"
Zhou Ping had just solved his own troubles and was ready to use this breakthrough to find more corrupt officials, but the evidence was killed.
Zhou Ping has already reached the first-grade cultivation level. To be able to kill someone in front of him, one must be a first-grade cultivator!
Fan Zhongfu said that since the death of Pudu Cihang, there were only four people left in the first rank of the Wei Dynasty.
Fan Zhongfu, Zhang Ziling, and two other top-notch masters in Kyoto, one is a warrior and the other is a Taoist priest.
Zhou Ping has already put these two people on the death list.
"Old woman, old woman, I've already said it, we can offend good people, but we can't afford to offend bad people." The street vendor hugged the woman's body and cried bitterly.
Zhou Ping felt a little tired. He knew that since he had chosen this path, he would have to face all kinds of attacks, and would be harmed by the ignorant lower-class people.
But he still overestimated his own heart.
You can offend good people, but you can't afford to offend bad people.
Do I really have the determination to keep going?
At this time, Fan Shiyi patted Zhou Ping's shoulder. She could read the sadness in Zhou Ping's eyes: "Zhou Ping, I believe you can do it."
Zhou Ping smiled sadly: "Maybe."
into the night.
Chen Da, Ma San, Wang Wu and Li Si were drinking in the restaurant.
These four people are the main characters who framed Zhou Ping.
However, the four people were surprised by Zhou Ping's method.
In the end, the matter of the fans came to nothing.
"The elders in my family are very concerned about this matter. They have given me many warnings and instructions, but I didn't expect that I still messed it up." Chen Da said in a deep voice.
Li Si said: "Not only you, but also the elders in my family attach great importance to this matter."
"Forget it. Even if Zhou Ping escapes this time, can he escape many times? It's not like we haven't dealt with people like him before. If we want to deal with him, it's easy for us few to do it." Ma San said.
Wang Wu also said: "Yes, brothers, we are listed in the family tree. We control all kinds of people in Kyoto. There is nothing we can't handle."
Chen Da nodded and looked at the palace in the distance.
There are four mansions around the palace. These four mansions are said to have existed for nearly ten thousand years. They are the Chen family, the Ma family, the Wang family and the Li family.
The four of them are the spokespersons for four families in the headhunting business.
All industries in the Wei Dynasty, whether it is being an official or doing business, are controlled by the four major families.
There is nothing they cannot deal with.
"By the way, don't be unhappy, Boss Chen. Today it's my turn, Wang Wu, to take everyone to play with the bride. I have already found a good family, the Yuan family in the east of the city. They have a wonderful daughter-in-law." Wang Wu said with a lewd smile.
Some people like to sleep with the bride the most.
Chen Da smiled slightly when he heard Wang Wu's words, then looked at Ma San and said, "Ma San must line up at the back today. This guy has mysophobia, and I need to give him a good lesson."
"Oh, that won't do. I have mysophobia and I have to be the first one."
"No, you have to wash the pot for your brothers today!"
