Chapter 81
Behind these three red brick western-style buildings, there really is something different.

There are three red-brick Western-style buildings with character characters, and there is a two-story gray brick building in the middle, with a brick-wood structure and a sloping roof with small blue tiles.A combination of Chinese and Western styles.

Counting from the front, there are a total of twenty red lacquered wooden glass windows on the two floors. Most of the windows are tightly closed with curtains behind the windows, and behind the smaller half are shadows, many people are busy.

A one-car-wide cement road winds from the side of the concrete building to the top of the hill behind the Transportation Bureau.

On the red brick pillar in front of the gate at the bottom of the building, there is a sign with black characters on a white background that reads "Second Anti-smuggling Squad".

Walking to the gate at the bottom of the building, Sha Pingguang took out his pass from his right breast pocket and handed it to a salt patrol officer guarding the gate without looking back.
"Didn't you always want to know why the second anti-smuggling team of the Transportation Bureau handles the Xuanqi case instead of other offices?"

Wu Qing was quite surprised, "Can you say it?"

After the guard checked the documents, he returned them with both hands. Sha Pingguang took them and turned around.
"Go in right away, and my captain agrees to recruit you, so what else can you say? Is it possible that you are planning to run away after listening to me?"

After all, take a step forward.

"That can't be."

Wu Qing followed closely behind and stepped into the gate of the small building where the second anti-smuggling team was stationed.

The voice from Shapingguan was at the front, "Our No. [-] anti-smuggling team didn't use the title of Salt Patrolman before."

"What's the name?" Wu Qing naturally asked.

"Yin-yang soap slave!"

The unremarkable black-painted gate that fell behind the two of them was like a valve in Shapingguang. After entering, the previous concealment became open and generous.

Even the words are a little rambling.

Sha Pingguang recounted the history of the second anti-smuggling team from the beginning.

It has to be said that the yin and yang soap slaves are more capable of training morale than the salt patrol.

What he said was quite different from what Tang Chengcun said.

…………

Zao servants are servants in the old yamen.

If there are yin and yang soap slaves, there will naturally be yin and yang yamen.

The old Qian Dynasty, the first year of Tongming, 44 in the Gregorian calendar, [-] years ago.

The reigning emperor, Emperor Tongming.

Emperor Tongming issued a secret edict, ordering Yue Daozhengsi, ordering the government offices of all prefectures, counties and prefectures to cooperate with the temples of the true Taoist sects in various places to prepare for the establishment of Yin Yang Yamen...

The masters of the Taoist temples or Gao Gong in each prefecture and county will concurrently serve as patrol inspectors of the yin and yang yamen.

Either directly order the servants in their own Taoist temples, or directly recruit local martial arts masters to act as yin and yang servants, specializing in evil spirits and evil things.

The yin and yang yamen do not belong to each other, but only obey the orders of the Taoism they belong to, and the Taoism they belong to obeys the orders of the local governors, and the local governors obey the orders of the emperor.

Gein's secret edict is naturally to act in secret.So that the name is not displayed.

Wu Qing, who has accepted the memory of the original owner for more than ten years, has never heard of what happened 44 years ago.

Slaying demons and eliminating demons at that time was roughly consistent with the situation in Zhiguai novels.

The Taoist chiefs of the yin and yang yamen made inspections and took a few yin and yang soap servants to run around secretly, opening altars with methods to subdue demons and eliminate demons.

As for why the anti-smuggling team of the Transport Bureau has been changed now...

When the Yinyang Yamen was established, it coincided with the last years of the Old Qiang Dynasty, and the current situation was turbulent.During the Westernization Movement, Western learning was used in practice, policy was changed and stereotyped writing was abolished, and various ideas clashed.Surrender, reform, reform, constitution, revolution, among various factions.

Even people from other places, since they have already boarded the big ship of the imperial court, naturally they have to stand in line.

The true preaching sects from all over the world were advancing and retreating in unison, held a Dharma meeting, unified their thinking, and then took the Yin-Yang Yamen under their command and chose to side with the revolutionaries.

Among them, the strength of the true preachers in various places, the waste of effort, and the dead, can't be finished in a few words.

In short, the time finally came to [-], and the teams of true preachers in various places ushered in a harvest.

The old Qian Dynasty was overthrown, and the Republic of China was established.

As the distribution of benefits for the winning side, except for the subordination of the Yin-Yang Yamen, it remains unchanged.

The warlords in various places also divided the salt affairs departments of various places into various Taoist sects according to the plots.

Of course, there are other reasons for assigning a department with real power and huge profits to the Taoist sect, Sha Pingguang just mentioned it.

With the overthrow of the imperial system and the establishment of the Republic of China, various forms of official system reforms combining dry and western were followed.

The emperor was renamed the President, the ministers of the ministries were changed to the chiefs, and the county chiefs were changed to the county governors.

Yin Yang Yamen is no exception.

Because each Taoist sect has the power of salt affairs, and the yin and yang yamen, for the convenience of management, and also for the secret plan, the various Taoist gates are connected to each other, and they have held several Dharma meetings to reach a consensus.

Simply and uniformly combine the salt affairs department and the yin and yang yamen into one.The top officials of the two departments are concurrently held by the original top officials of the Yin-Yang Yamen, the Yin-Yang Patrollers.

But only listen to the big and eat the small, how can there be big snacks.

As a hidden taxation agency, the salt affairs department is higher than the yin and yang yamen at the administrative level.

In the old Qian Dynasty, the heads of the salt affairs departments in various places were third-rank officials.The inspection of the Yinyang Yamen is only for the seventh-rank officials.

After the Republic of China, the heads of the salt affairs departments in various places were senior officials, while the inspectors were appointed officials after the exchange of Qipin and others.

The two yamen are merged, and the one that is low-key and small can only be the yin-yang yamen.

So since then, the Yin Yang Yamen has become the second anti-smuggling team of the salt affairs agencies in various places.

But the yin and yang soap slaves also have an extra layer of salt policeman's skin.It is more difficult for people to notice.

The yin and yang soap slave to which the Daoist sect belongs, if put together with Qi practitioners, there is no sense of disobedience.

…………

What Tang Chengcun said is the difference.

The members of the second anti-smuggling team of the Arbitration Bureau are not Tianzhu gatekeepers, but Tianzhu gatekeepers' subordinates.

Becoming a member of the second anti-smuggling team of the Transport Bureau is not becoming a gatekeeper of Tianzhu.

But it didn't affect Wu Qing's purpose.

Wu Qing straightened out his thoughts, suddenly thought of something, couldn't help asking.

"I just saw a car outside the gate of the Trafficking Bureau, with a female crown sitting on it... Could it be the current director of the Trafficking Bureau, the former Yin and Yang Yamen inspector. After I joined the Second Anti-Smuggling Team boss?"

The inspector of his family asked him about Wu Qing in the car just now.

Sha Pingguang did not hide anything, and replied:

"We don't have a second female champion in the Luck Bureau. The female Taoist you see is naturally the director of the Yujiang Luck Bureau. I am a senior member of the Yujiang Luck Bureau. I am the second anti-smuggling team, and I keep my yin and yang. The habit of soap service is called inspection.

But not your immediate boss.Your immediate boss is Chang Ying, the captain of my second anti-smuggling team.Further up is the inspector. "

In fact, the words have already been said so deeply, it is reasonable to ask any questions.

"Then the Qi trainers of our second anti-smuggling team practiced the method taught by Tianzhu Temple?"

Wu Qing made a guess that he thought was reasonable.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Wu Qing's words, Sha Pingguang looked back at Wu Qing strangely.

Wu Qing asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?"

"A Qi trainer doesn't come from cultivation."
