Chapter 1018 City Head Standing

Chu Huan looked at the witch Ma with great interest and asked, "Did you say you have evidence?"

"Yes..." The witch Ma hurriedly said, "They asked me to falsely accused the Governor. I didn't agree at the beginning, but they promised me, sir... you have no foundation in Xiguan, so don't be afraid of you. If something really happens, they will support me. And they gave me... they gave me one hundred taels of silver, and the silver is still in my hands...!"

Chu Huan was a little disappointed when he heard this, "Your evidence is silver?"

"It was the silver they gave me." The witch Ma seemed to find a life-saving straw. "Sir, I will tell you where the silver is stored. If you find the silver, the silver was handed over to me by Lord Dong. They also said that as long as everyone believes that the Governor is the God of Plague and drives you out of Xiguan, they will give me 200 taels of silver afterwards..."

Dong Shizhen sighed and said, "Governor General, this old witch seems crazy. She knows that death is coming, but she is still deliberately provoking your relationship with Xiaguan. Xiaguan now thinks that she is really likely to be instructed by someone... Yes, Xiaguan heard that the disciples of the Heavenly Doctrine were everywhere and the evil words were confusing the public. Although there are no traces of the disciples of the Heavenly Doctrine under Xiguan, Xiaguan thinks that those evil disciples have already wandered into our Xiguan...!"

Chu Huan said "Oh" and asked, "Does Lord Dong think this witch Ma may be a disciple of Tianmen?"

"She pretends to be a ghost and bewitches the people on weekdays, and now she is provoking the relationship between the officials and the masters...!" Dong Shizhen looked thoughtful, "It is said that in addition to bewitching the people, the most favorite trick is to provoke internal friction in the government. This witch of the horse may not be a disciple of the Tianmen Taoist!"

The witch Ma immediately screamed: "I am not...I am not a disciple of Tianmen..."

Many people in the city could hear the shouts of Ma. At this time, many people already understood that the saying that Chu Huan was a plague god was completely framed. This Ma Witch seemed to be instructed by someone. Moreover, many people who had admired Ma Witch before were even more angry at this time. They thought Ma Witch really had magical powers, but seeing Ma Witch now, he looked like a liar. He had been worshipping such an old liar for so many years and even regarded her as an omnipotent master, which made everyone feel angry.

"Mrs. Ma, what marks are there on the silver you mentioned?" Chu Huan asked lightly: "You said that the silver was sent to you by Lord Dong. What evidence is there? Do you have the name of Lord Dong written on those silver? Or are there any marks that can prove it is Lord Dong?"

The witch Ma was speechless.

Dong Shizhen laughed and said, "A scammer is actually talking nonsense here. The Governor must never let such a person go."

Chu Huan sighed and asked, "Witch Ma, have you admitted that you have lost your bet with me?"

The witch Ma looked pale and shivered.

"According to the bet, you would jump off the city now." Chu Huan sighed: "But I am a new governor. Although you deserve it, doing so is a bit cruel... I am aware of you, do you want to live?"

When Ma Wu heard Chu Huan say this, she seemed to have a glimmer of hope. She knelt down and begged: "I beg you for your kindness, and I will never dare to do it again..."

Chu Huan said: "It's very simple to spare your life. First, tell the people under the city what is going on with your so-called divine snake leading the way?"

The witch Ma was stunned, and Xuanyuan Sheng next to him said coldly: "Why don't you say it!"

The witch Ma got up, reached the edge of the battlement, leaned over and poked her head out, and shouted: "I...I don't have magical powers, but in fact...I'm actually lying to you. The divine snake leads the way... The divine snake leads the way is also fake!"

Someone at the city immediately asked, "We clearly saw the serpent leading the way. Will it listen to you? It is a snake. Even if it is obedient, how can it understand human words?"

"There is a kind of vegetable called snake and bamboo vegetable, which is the only smell of grass and trees that snakes like." In order to save their lives, Ma Shenpo didn't dare to pretend to be a god or a ghost. "My snake is trained by me and I like that kind of smell. If you want to let the snake lead the way, just sprinkle the vegetable juice of snake and bamboo vegetable on the road in advance. The smell of snake and bamboo vegetable is hard to smell, but snakes are most familiar with the smell of snake and bamboo vegetable...!"

As she said this, the people in the city suddenly realized that someone had already shouted: "Yes, yes, there are things like snakes and bamboo vegetables. It turns out that this old witch used snakes and bamboo vegetables!"

The witch Ma's body was still trembling. She glanced at Chu Huan. Seeing that Chu Huan was just looking at her indifferently, she could only continue: "The night before yesterday when I went to the Governor's Mansion, I hired a carriage. The carriage floor was opened. From the temple to the gate of the Governor's Mansion, I sprinkled vegetable juice on the ground in the carriage. It was very late at that time, and the vegetable juice fell on the stone slabs on the street, so it was hard to see. By the next morning, the vegetable juice was dry, but the smell was still there. The gods and snakes liked the smell of snakes and bamboo vegetables the most. As long as they smelled this smell, they would... go along with the smell..."

"You old witch, you deserve to die for a thousand sins. If you have deceived us for so many years, you will not die well..."

"Old witch, we also worship you incense. It turns out that you are lying to us. Everyone beat this old witch to death..."

"You made us follow you to make a big fuss in the Governor's Office. If it weren't for the Governor's large number of Governors and hadn't had any worries with us, we would be implicated and imprisoned by you...!"

"Governor General, kill this old witch, kill this old witch..."

The crowd was excited under the city. When everyone found out that the witch they had been worshiping was such an old liar, so many people were deceived by an old woman. You can imagine how angry everyone was in their hearts.

Chu Huan stood at the top of the city and raised his hands. The voices of the crowd gradually became smaller. When everyone was speechless, Chu Huan said loudly: "My fellow villagers, I came here today and exposed the scam of Ma's witch in front of everyone. It's not just to target such a small witch. Yes, Ma's witch is confused and deceived everyone. She deserves to die, but I ask everyone, are you all wrong?"

People looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.

"I'm going to say my conscience, Ma's Goddess is wrong, and everyone's mistakes." Chu Huan said seriously: "Ma's Goddess is just a small liar. It's not worth mentioning, but she can make a fortune in Shuoquan. Even the government has to build a temple for him. Many people have to worship her as a god. I believe he can really talk to the gods. Everyone knows that surrounding the Governor's Government Office is undoubtedly a rebellion. But such a witch can be able to deceive hundreds of people to surround the Governor's Government Office. Friends, please ask yourself, is this just the fault of the witch?"

People suddenly became silent.

"We respect heaven, we respect our ancestors, we must maintain a pious heart." Chu Huan's voice was not very loud, but he was full of energy, and his voice came from the city. "But this does not mean that those nonsense and evil nonsense can also confuse our minds, and we cannot follow the crowd and become tools for others to use. The last time the witch could use everyone to surround the Governor's Mansion, so in the future, some people would confuse the public and use everyone to rebel. Will everyone be bewitched by others?"

"Today, I just want to tell you that although Xiguan has suffered disasters, as long as people are still there, it will not collapse." Chu Huan put his hands on the battlements, "I hope we can work together to rebuild our home. Although this process is still very difficult and we will encounter a lot of trouble, but with the belief of revitalizing Xiguan, we will definitely be able to build a prosperous and peaceful home. This governor is very clear that I am a newcomer, with a shallow foundation, and very young. Many people will doubt whether I can really take everyone out of the trough. To be honest, I have never thought that I can really do everything, really get the support of everyone, and get out of the predicament together, but I will do my best to do my best.

Go do what you should do." After a pause, glanced at the crowd, suddenly frowned, and looked stunned for a moment, but the expression disappeared instantly. I looked away and continued: "Some people may want me to leave here. I will make it clear here today. Some people with ulterior motives want to be sarcastic behind this governor. I will never be afraid of any fear. Since I dare to come to Xiguan, I am not afraid of someone hindering me. If I want my governor to leave Xiguan, there is only one possibility, that is, the people here think that I, Chu Huan, is not worthy of being the governor of Xiguan. When the people here are scolding me, Chu Huan, calling me a stupid official, and calling me a mediocre official, even if everyone doesn't drive me away, I will not have the shame to continue to stay..."

When people looked at Chu Huan on the top of the city, no one expected that the Governor, as a chief official, would say such words so frankly. After these words, many people only felt that the young Governor was not arrogant, and the distance seemed to have been much closer.

"Today, I will not let the witch Ma jump down, but the death penalty is avoided, and the living crime is hard to forgive. She can no longer stay in Shuoquan. She will be expelled from Shuoquan today." Chu Huan looked stern, "Ask the witch Ma, I will give me and everyone a warning. Some evil words confuse the people with ulterior motives. We must not believe it easily. Bewitching the people and spreading rumors and causing trouble is the thing that I hate the most. I will try my best to take everyone to eat and wear warm clothes, but at the same time I will tell you here that I will never be ruthless towards those who bewitch people. My fellow villagers may know that the court is fighting against the Tianmen Dao in the southeast. My supervisor has made an oath. The Tianmen Dao bewitching the people and poisoning the people. I want to kill the Tianmen Dao, so in the west,

In the territory of the gate, if anyone incites people to deceive the people, I will not be lenient. I heard that the Heavenly Gate Dao is everywhere, but in the territory of Xiguan, I will never allow their existence. One, one kills one, one pair, and one pair... Today, I also set a rule here. Anyone who has evil words to deceive the people in the future, the first person to report the investigation is true and will definitely be rewarded. However, if someone with ulterior motives thinks that this governor is telling jokes here and making trouble in Xiguan Dao...!" He made a fist with his right hand and punched the battlements. The sound of Kerala sounded, and the stones in the battlements were actually cracked, and the shattered stones fell from the top of the city. Chu Huan's eyes were extremely cold, "Then try it!"
