Chapter 46: The county governor has an appointment

"Of course...there is another thing. I heard that there is a little immortal master here, I don't know..."

When Zhang Sheng saw what Li Yan said, he naturally agreed with him.

Little immortal master? Ma Qiang thought for a while, and he should be talking about himself, then stood up and said, "Did the county captain mean me? I am not an immortal master, but a mortal, just a little more than ordinary people."

experience."

A sergeant behind Zhang Sheng came over and whispered a few words to Zhang Sheng. Zhang Sheng nodded, and then worshiped Ma Qiang, "The prefect learned about the little immortal master's methods, and he admired him in his heart. I wonder if the little immortal master can move forward."

At the Sheriff's Mansion, the Governor has prepared a banquet."

With that said, Zhang Sheng hurriedly bowed to Li Xuan and said, "Of course, it would be best if Dr. Li can go as well."

Only then did Ma Qiang understand that Zhang Sheng was not only doing it for Li Yan, but also for himself.

Although the official reputation of Liu Wei and Guo Xun is not very good, if they build a relationship, many subsequent plans can be realized.

Ma Qiang then said, "I dare not refuse His Majesty's invitation. Please wait a moment and I will explain."

"Of course."

Ma Qiang told Lu An and others that he was going to the governor's house for a banquet and asked them to go back to the wine house first. Lu An was a little worried and said, "Although Prefect Liu is a member of the clan, his personal ethics are not good. I

Let Qingcheng take Qingning back, and I'll ask Guo Jin and others to wait for you outside the mansion. If you find out that Prefect Liu wants to do harm to you, run out the door and I'll be there to pick you up."

Although Ma Qiang felt it was unnecessary, he still agreed, and then went to the governor's mansion with Li Jue and Zhang Sheng.

Jixian County is not that big to begin with, and soon everyone arrived outside the County Sheriff's Mansion. The County Sheriff's Mansion may be very luxurious for people of this era, but in Ma Qiang's view, it is neither as tall as the buildings of later generations nor as tall as the Forbidden City.

of splendor.

That's all.

This is the same as when future generations are used to seeing all kinds of beauties on the Internet and then look at the so-called beauties around them in the real world, it is extremely difficult to feel amazing.

Outside the governor's house, a group of people were already waiting there. The leader of the group was unusually fat in this era, with a greasy face and a goat's beard. He must be the prefect Liu Wei.

"Ah, this must be the Little Immortal Master. Liu Wei has met the Little Immortal Master."

Before Liu Wei could wait for Ma Qiang to step forward, he took the initiative to come down and bow to Ma Qiang. Following him, everyone behind him also started to bow.

What the hell?

By the way, if you are so superstitious, why don't you go worship Cheng Zhiyuan?

No, having said that, didn't I already explain that killing ghosts out of thin air is just a deception using chemical reactions...

"Prefect Liu, I am just a common man in the mountains, not an immortal master. Please don't listen to rumors from the countryside, Prefect."

I am a person with a left-hand science and a right-hand Mazhe who is called an immortal master. Are you insulting science or Mazhe?

"Master Immortal, please don't be humble. The fact that you and Master Cheng Xian of Taiping Dao have made an appointment to fight in Dharma is now known to everyone in the city. If you are not an Immortal Master, who would dare to fight Master Cheng in Dharma? Who doesn't know that Master Cheng Xian gained enlightenment from a great master?"

, he is a strange person in the world."

Looking at Liu Wei's longing expression, come on, this man seems to really worship Cheng Zhiyuan.

But if you think about it carefully, there is some truth to the superstition of the clan like Liu Wei. Liu Bang used to kill the White Snake to talk about the White Emperor and the Red Emperor. As a descendant of the clan, Liu Wei naturally has to believe in the existence of the world.

It's crazy.

"Master Taishou, it's windy outside, why not..." said a person next to Liu Wei.

"Yes, yes, yes, go in and talk. Immortal Master invites you! Oh, and Dr. Li. I already know what happened today. Don't worry, I will definitely punish County Lieutenant Zhang. You also invite me."

County Lieutenant Zhang looked at Li Yan with a pitiful expression. Li Yan sighed and said, "This matter has nothing to do with Lord County Lieutenant. I am just trying to attract people's jealousy. Please don't blame Lord Zhang Sheng."

Liu Wei looked at Zhang Sheng and hummed, "Thanks to Dr. Li for interceding for you today, otherwise I would have had to pull out all your teeth!"

Ma Qiang dared to bet a pack of spicy strips, but Liu Wei just thought Zhang Sheng had bad breath.

Everyone came to the hall of the mansion together. Tables and benches had been set up in the hall. Fortunately, they were not cushions. Ma Qiang breathed a sigh of relief. If he had to sit upright, he would really cry.

In the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was a separate meal system, and wine and food were placed on each table. Ma Qiang took a look and saw that most of them were meat. The food in this era was really unhealthy. No wonder he didn't live long.

"Come, little immortal master today... By the way, I don't know the name of the little immortal master yet." Liu Wei suddenly remembered something and asked.

Ma Qiang has a dirty look on his face, he invites someone to your house for dinner without even knowing their name...

"Young man, Ma Qiang, has no words yet."

"Oh, Master Ma!"

Come on, call me whatever you like!

Ma Qiang was almost unable to complain.

"Come, let me introduce the immortal master." Liu Wei began to introduce the guests attending the banquet.

This was actually a small banquet, there were not many people there, they were all officials from the prefect's mansion.

After Liu Wei finished his introduction, he began to introduce Ma Qiang, "You may still not know, Master Ma Xian had a battle with Master Cheng Xian of Taiping Dao today. Both parties used the technique of killing ghosts out of thin air. It is really miraculous."

"Master Taishou." Ma Qiang stood up and bowed, "Hasn't Master Taishou heard that the villain has said before that the so-called killing of ghosts out of thin air is just using turmeric to turn red when it encounters alkaline water, it is not a magic trick."

"Haha, although this technique is not an immortal technique, it should be a Taoist secret that is not taught. If you are not an immortal master, how can you know it?"

"Sir, there is no such thing as magic in the world. You will know after I fight with that Cheng Yuanzhi in ten days."

"There is no immortal magic? How to fight magic?"

Seeing Liu Wei's expression of "I've seen through you a long time ago", Ma Qiang was so scared that he was going to die. Is this okay?

It's really like the old saying, you can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep. Others believe you are a god. Even if you hit him, he will think you are testing him. What do you think?

Seeing that Ma Qiang had nothing to say, Liu Wei chuckled and said, "Speaking of it, the fight between Master Ma and Master Cheng is not easy for any mortal to get involved in, but if Master Ma hopes to turn the conflict into friendship, I am willing to contribute a little."

"I would like to thank you sir, but Cheng Zhiyuan used the talk of gods to confuse people's hearts and sell useless talisman water to defraud money. I will definitely fight with him."

Ma Qiang also thought about how he could let Liu Wei destroy it by getting famous while keeping Taiping Road away from him.

After Liu Wei heard this, he stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "That's all right... I am the governor of a county, and I have an unkind request. I ask the immortal master to agree to it."

"Sir, please speak." Ma Qiang was also a little curious as to why Liu Wei asked him to come.

"Hey..." Liu Wei suddenly found a handkerchief out of nowhere and started crying, with tears and runny noses.

"Master Taishou...what are you doing?"

"Master Immortal doesn't know something. It's very difficult for me to be the prefect!"

In recent years, major and minor disasters have occurred in this county one after another, but the taxes demanded by the imperial court have refused to be reduced. I feel very uncomfortable seeing the people going bankrupt to pay taxes..." As he spoke, Liu Wei exerted his strength

After waking up for a while, he continued to say, "If the immortal master is willing to teach me the art of turning stone into gold, then the people of this county will no longer have to pay taxes and will be able to live and work in peace and contentment. Even Xianbei, I can give you a lot of money."

I bribed him to stop infringing on the people, so he asked the immortal master to teach me the magic to save the people of Guangyang County!"

Ma Qiang opened his mouth slightly, and only an elegant old man with white hair and beard flashed in his mind.

I have never seen such a shameless person!

Isn't it just that I am greedy for money? Let's just say it bluntly. What nonsense is this? To save the people of a county, bah, I really need to turn stone into gold. If I can get a tael of gold into the hands of the people, I, Ma Qiang, will do it.
