This immortal was clearly ordinary, yet he was unusually confident.

Neither the human nor the fox spoke while eating snacks, because their cheeks were bulging.

When the last piece of jerky went into Doraemon's belly, both the human and the fox patted their bellies, showing expressions of satisfaction.

When Doraemon looked at Kongming again, his gaze was no longer wary, but rather showed a sense of kinship.

Friendships between foodies are that simple!

Kongming played with Doraemon for a while, but then his father called from next door. Reluctantly, he went out, promising Doraemon that he would bring more delicious food over the next day.

This actually solved a problem for Zheng Zhuang. To be honest, he hadn't even considered the Blue Fox's food situation before.

As Zheng Zhuang watched Kongming leave, he suddenly raised an eyebrow. Not far from the doorway, two figures were standing there. When they saw Zheng Zhuang looking over, they quickly bowed and greeted him. They were Zhang San and Li Si, two underworld messengers.

What are you doing here?

Zhang San and Li Si quickly stepped forward, stopped at the door, and respectfully said:

"We are here on the orders of the City God to invite Mr. Zheng to the temple for a chat."

Zheng Zhuang was somewhat surprised. He asked himself if he had any connection with the City God, and these underworld messengers were just people he had met by chance on the road.

Zhang San sensed something amiss in Zheng Zhuang's gaze and immediately explained:

"We did not reveal your deification, sir. It's just that the City God heard that you slew the spider demon and wanted to express his gratitude. Also..."

This surprised Zheng Zhuang somewhat. He hadn't instructed the two to keep the matter of the Investiture of the Gods a secret that day, but indeed, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

Li Si sighed and continued, "Actually, there's nothing I can't say. The City God is growing weaker and weaker, and I hope you can lend him a hand."

Zheng Zhuang didn't really want to get involved in these matters, but the City God and similar deities were righteous gods, and if something unexpected happened, the people of this area would be left without protection, so he couldn't very well refuse.

"In that case, I shall accompany you on this journey!"

"Please, sir!" Zhang San and Li Si quickly led the way for Zheng Zhuang.

Zheng Zhuang also had another plan: to investigate the matter of "transvestites." As the local tyrant, the City God should know some inside information.

He told Doraemon to stay inside and not run around, and then he went outside.

Before even entering the house, Kongming heard Zheng Zhuang's voice behind him and instinctively turned his head to look. However, he found that Zheng Zhuang was not facing him, but rather facing an empty space in front of him.

If there's no one around, then who are you talking to?

This sent a chill down Kongming's spine, and he quickly ran inside.

"Dad, there's a ghost!"

Liu grabbed Kongming and quickly covered his mouth:

"Pah! How can you say such things?"

Kong Xiang also immediately straightened his face and scolded:

"How did I raise you? You're always talking nonsense all day long!"

Kongming said urgently, "It's true, I just saw Mr. Zheng talking to someone, but there was clearly no one there, and that blue fox..."

Kongming immediately covered his mouth, realizing in an instant that he had let something slip.

"What's wrong with Blue Fox?" Kong Xiang's eyes narrowed slightly.

Kongming knew he could no longer hide it and had no choice but to confess honestly:

"Actually, it was Mr. Zheng who saved the blue fox, and the fox was in his room!"

Kong Xiang and Liu were both surprised: "So that extraordinary person is Mr. Zheng?"

Kong Xiang seemed to be deep in thought. After a while, he suddenly clapped his hands and then walked quickly outside.

Both Liu and Kongming were puzzled and hurriedly asked:

"What are you going to do?"

I'm going to buy something!

……

On the other side, Zheng Zhuang strolled leisurely along the way, but the two day-roaming gods dared not slack off in the slightest, always keeping a distance of about one meter from him.

If pedestrians are passing by, they will be stopped without them even realizing it, and then subconsciously change direction so as not to let them affect Zhengzhuang's pace.

The service was quite attentive!

Zheng Zhuang has the air of a nouveau riche traveling with bodyguards, even though no one else can see the two bodyguards.

Zheng Zhuang did not use any magic power, but Zhang San and Li Si felt an inexplicable pressure and dared not even breathe.

The Investiture of the Gods was simply too shocking for them.

Zheng Zhuang could sense their awkwardness, and thus lost interest in chatting.

Furthermore, if you chat with them along the way, you'll appear to be talking to thin air to the surrounding pedestrians, and they'll definitely think you're an idiot.

The City God Temple wasn't far, so we arrived at the entrance in no time.

Contrary to Zheng Zhuang's expectations, the City God Temple was not crowded with people; instead, it was rather deserted.

Upon entering the temple, an elderly man was already waiting in front of the City God statue.

Zhang San and Li Si quickly stepped forward and bowed:

"Reporting to the City God, Mr. Zheng has arrived."

The City God nodded slightly, and the two day-roaming gods bowed to Zheng Zhuang before discreetly turning into two wisps of white smoke and disappearing.

Zheng Zhuang could naturally see that the City God was just an incarnation, and that his aura was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, and somewhat unstable.

At the same time, the City God was also observing Zheng Zhuang. Although his face was ordinary, he had an indescribable aura. He had no spiritual power, yet he seemed to be one with heaven and earth.

Can't see through!

The two observed each other for a while, and then the City God spoke first:

"Zhao Gaoyi, the City God of Jianning County, greets Mr. Zheng and thanks him for eliminating a great scourge for our county."

Seeing the City God's attitude, Zheng Zhuang didn't dare to be presumptuous and cupped his hands, saying:

"It was just something I did on the side."

"Sir, you are too modest. That spider demon is highly skilled and has many clones. How could an ordinary person easily destroy it? There is a teahouse outside the temple. Shall we eat and chat?"

"I'd be better off obeying, please!"

This teahouse is not very big, but it has three floors and is elegantly decorated. Its food is quite famous in Jiankang City.

Zheng Zhuang and Zhao Chenghuang entered the teahouse together, and a waiter greeted them warmly as soon as they entered.

"Please come in, esteemed guests! Do you have a reservation?"

"Take us directly to the third floor. My surname is Zhao, and someone has already made a reservation for us."

The waiter immediately adopted a respectful demeanor: "So you are Mr. Zhao. Please come upstairs quickly. The manager has repeatedly instructed us not to neglect you."

Zhao Chenghuang smiled and nodded, then followed the waiter upstairs with Zheng Zhuang.

After the two sat down, Zheng Zhuang looked out the window and said:

"The scenery here is quite nice!"

Zhao Chenghuang smiled and said, "Sir, please try the tea and snacks at this teahouse. The taste is different from other places."

Zheng Zhuang didn't stand on ceremony, casually picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It was soft and fluffy, with a slightly sweet taste and a unique fragrance.

"The taste is indeed excellent! Your Majesty, please have some!"

Zhao Chenghuang sighed: "It's good that Mr. Zheng likes it. As you can probably see, I have no physical body, so eating these things would be a waste, especially in the current situation..."

Zheng Zhuang put down the pastries in his hand and asked thoughtfully:

"I noticed something unusual about your appearance; I wonder what has happened?"

Zhao Chenghuang put down his teacup and looked out the window, as if lost in memories.
