Chapter 479: A Town Favored by the River God!
"What the hell is going on?"
On the small high platform, Xiang Fang Su fell into self-doubt.
At first, it rained in a clear sky, and he thought it was some kind of natural coincidence.
Later, the turtle and crane presented auspiciousness, and he thought it was Liang Qu's deliberate arrangement.
Finally, the four snakes offered gifts.
This, this, this...
It's not right!
The Great Shun and the Eastern Snake couldn't be said to be officially hostile, but they certainly weren't good, often having low-intensity friction.
On this basis, Liang Qu and the Eastern Snake, not to mention watching and helping each other, at least could be irreconcilable.
The snake demon that caused trouble in Xiangyi County was killed by the white ape he sent!
If he really wanted to put on a show.
Arranging four big frogs would be more reasonable than arranging four big snakes!
Xiang Fang Su's brain was smoking.
Liang Qu's brain was equally itchy, and the joy of gaining two points of favorability vanished.
As the main sacrificer, he was even more confused than Xiang Fang Su; if it weren't for seeing it clearly, he would have wanted to throw away the sacrificial text and run away when the snake demons came out.
There must be something tricky about this.
The priest and the main sacrificer on the altar were both stunned, while the 100,000 villagers below were completely fanatical!
Sweet dew from heaven.
Turtle and crane presenting auspiciousness!
A hundred-zhang big snake offering gifts!
Such a big snake could completely be called a flood dragon!
Heaven!
The old chief priest was crying with snot and tears, his snot and tears smeared into a ball.
Hearing early in the morning that the River God was the Dragon Lord, could it be that the Yixing Town River God Festival was held so well that it attracted the River God's attention and gave a response?
In the Jianghuai Great Marsh, the red-scaled big snake took the lead, leading the other three snakes to approach.
Xiang Fang Su's muscles were tense, facing a great enemy.
Four snake demons, equivalent to four Great Martial Artists, the pressure was terrifyingly strong!
At this moment, he was no different from the villagers who saw the Great Demon earlier.
Liang Qu was equally nervous, but his mentality was slightly better.
Four snake demons, he couldn't beat them even if he turned into a white ape, but his home was only a mile away, and there was someone at home who could fight!
Su Guishan was faking death and had to hide himself, so he couldn't easily make a move, but the old monk alone should be enough to deal with it.
Liang Qu sent a message early through the spiritual link, asking Tatta Kai to invite reinforcements; the old monk might be hiding in some corner watching the changes.
The red-scaled big snake noticed the nervousness of the two and slowed down its approach, showing sincerity.
Until it reached the shore, the red-scaled big snake lowered its head, spread its will, and spoke slowly.
"Yixing scholars and people..."
Just after opening, the 100,000 Yixing Town villagers widened their eyes.
It can speak!
The snake can speak!
Could it be...
The old chief priest was trembling all over with excitement, sweat the size of beans sliding from his temples, not feeling hard work despite the scorching sun.
The red-scaled big snake watched the crowd's expression and was very satisfied, its words not stopping.
"Yixing scholars and people, respectfully worship the River God, sincerely feel heaven and earth. Now the god sends an envoy, carrying gifts to return, to give to the main sacrificer, to show your sincerity!"
After speaking.
The old chief priest almost fainted, his whole body stiff and shaking.
Fortunately, Chen Zhaoan saw that something was wrong, picked up the mung bean soup on the table, pinched his philtrum, and poured it into his mouth.
The old chief priest was stimulated by the cold, opened his eyes, and woke up, but was choked by the mung bean soup and coughed violently.
Losing etiquette in front of the envoy was a great disrespect, but he couldn't control it at all, his face flushed red.
After catching his breath, the red-scaled big snake had already lowered its head, offered the treasure lotus, and turned to take the snakes away.
The blue-scaled big snake in the team was a bit anxious and wanted to say something, but was glared at by the red-scaled big snake and lowered its head silently.
The group of snakes disappeared into the sky, the big turtle and the red-crowned crane separated one after another, only that figure had a somewhat panicked meaning...
Liang Qu and Xiang Fang Su were completely stunned.
No.
This?
Say a word, and leave after sending things?
The two were already confused, and seeing this situation, their brains were stirred into a paste.
They couldn't figure out what medicine was in the gourds of the big snakes at all.
Vajra Strength Pill?
Xiang Fang Su asked quietly: "What the hell is going on? When did you hook up with the Eastern Snake?"
"I don't know..."
Liang Qu's brows twisted into an eight shape.
Underwater.
The blue snake swam and looked back three times, unbelievable.
"We agreed to bribe the officials and ask for the white ape's whereabouts, this... why did they leave?"
Red-scaled said lightly: "Don't worry."
"Don't worry? Why don't you worry? To find the damn white ape, we've been waiting for nearly two months!" The blue snake was furious.
Red-scaled glanced at the blue snake.
"I said, humans value etiquette, righteousness, and shame; bribery and betrayal can be done privately, but absolutely not face-to-face! Unless the price we give can make him betray his own group! Just three treasure plants, is it possible?"
"Since we can't ask face-to-face, why give him treasure plants!?"
The other two big snakes shook their heads and sighed, making the blue snake's anger even greater.
"Because we have to release goodwill!"
Red-scaled was tireless; if it weren't for the fact that the blue snake was a water demon with strong strength, if it were a Great Demon, it would have been killed long ago.
"The Liang-surnamed Water Official directed the white ape to kill the green snake, knowing that he had a feud with the snake clan; for us to talk to him face-to-face and find the white ape's whereabouts, how difficult is it? Do you think he will easily believe it?"
The blue snake was stunned.
Yellow-scaled big snake took the conversation: "At the River God Festival, the other party will be the main sacrificer, so he will inevitably appear; this is the right time.
The River God Festival is held on the shore, and it is easy for us to approach; this is the right place.
Four snakes joined forces, offered treasure plants, but didn't attack; that dilemma where the other party avoids seeing us due to a weak foundation of trust, and goodwill cannot be received, is broken!
Once it is proven that we have no malice, there is a foundation of trust, and it will be much easier to talk to him next!"
The blue snake scratched its head with its tail, feeling very itchy.
Red-scaled added: "Our trip has extra benefits, that is, not only did we send out three treasure plants, but we also gave the Liang-surnamed Water Official prestige and status!"
Yellow-scaled and orange-scaled snakes were stunned.
They were clear about releasing goodwill, where did the status come from?
Yellow-scaled lowered its head respectfully: "Please speak, Red-scaled Big Brother."
Red-scaled was very satisfied.
"In the past, the Dragon Lord was the River God, and now that the Flood Dragon Lord has inherited his position, isn't he also the River God?
Then this Yixing Town sacrifice to the River God is worshiping the Flood Dragon Lord!
So there is no problem with the envoy of the god! We are naturally here on behalf of the River God! Only need that Liang-surnamed Water Official to say the white ape's location, and from now on, he will be a person truly recognized by the River God!"
Yellow-scaled and orange-scaled were convinced.
Shangrao Pier.
The rain stopped at some point, and there was no trace of water on the ground.
Liang Qu didn't make it rain heavily; there were many children on the pier, and getting wet easily led to colds.
He stepped down from the half-meter-high altar and looked around.
The commoners' eyes were full of awe, fanaticism, and joy.
Sweet dew from heaven, turtle and crane presenting auspiciousness, big snake offering gifts.
This was much more impressive than last year's white mist!
Yixing Town was truly favored and protected by the River God!
When did it start?
It was when Liang Qu started to prosper!
Last year, this year, it was always like this!
The current Liang Qu, in the eyes of Yixing Town and other villagers, was no different from a celestial being descending to earth!
If one said he was the offspring of the River God in the human world, someone would definitely believe it!
"No wonder it's two points of favorability..."
Although Liang Qu didn't know what kind of abacus the group of big snakes was playing, the effect was good.
Favorability was linked to sacrifice, mostly related to the scale of the sacrifice and the piety of the participants.
When a few big snakes came out, the villagers' piety was not just full, it was overdrawn!
Xiang Fang Su walked behind Liang Qu, frowning and thinking, and only remembered that his priest task hadn't ended yet after following halfway.
"Set off firecrackers!"
Firecrackers crackled.
Gongs and drums played music.
Xiang Fang Su followed quickly: "A-Shui, any thoughts?"
"You stay and help distribute the meat." Liang Qu pondered for a moment, "I'll go home first and ask my superior."
"You ask your superior, why go home instead of the government office?"
"There's a big one at home!"
Liang Qu ran away quickly, leaving Xiang Fang Su in place, facing a group of villagers who kept scanning the offerings and swallowing their saliva, like a monk in the second grade.
Brother Xu lives in A-Shui's house?
"Fine, fine, distribute the meat, distribute the meat! Line up, line up! Village elders, neighborhood elders, maintain order!" ===== CHAPTER 480 =====
