Chapter 54
Before he finished speaking, he suddenly let out a light "Eh." Zhai Burang, Xia Buqian, and the little white fox seemed to feel a bit confused and followed Su Yuanshan's gaze, only to see two girls, one tall and one short, in the sea of people. One was in white clothes and a white skirt, and the other was in green clothes and a green skirt, looking like a crane in a flock of chickens, appearing out of place with the people around.
Glancing at the woman in white, Su Yuanshan couldn't help but be a little surprised, thinking to himself, whose rich daughter is this, to have such a rich water spirit aura on her?
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, thinking, no, this woman is definitely not a mortal!
Seeming to sense someone peeping at her, the girl in white looked around blankly, but found nothing. Instead, the girl in green beside her was a bit confused by her unusual behavior and asked.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
The girl in white hesitated for a moment and shook her head.
"Suddenly I felt a bit uneasy just now, but I'm fine now!"
She looked around and couldn't help sighing.
"However, these people are really pitiful."
While speaking, an old woman beside her suddenly fainted to the ground, and the people around were in a mess, but only three people went to help. One was a handsome young man who was polite, and the other two were the girl in white and the girl in green.
The handsome young man diligently fed the old woman water. His actions attracted countless people's covetousness. Looking at his water bag was like a hungry wolf seeing food, but unfortunately, there was too little water in the water bag, and it was soon drunk by the old woman. The people around could only sigh.
After catching her breath, the old woman finally woke up a lot, and she thanked them weakly.
"Thank you, thank you three kind people, the City God will definitely bless you to live a long life!" As she said this, her eyes were actually full of turbid tears. Obviously, she was lying, because this statement was so fake that even she didn't believe it. If the City God blessed them, would there still be a great drought, and would so many people still die?
However, hearing this, the handsome young man looked at the City God statue in the Chenghuang Temple, revealing a trace of dissatisfaction, but it soon faded. He helped the old woman and said.
"Grandma, no need to thank me, this is what I should do. As the saying goes, it is better to ask for help than to ask for gods. These immortals don't understand the suffering of the world at all, it's better not to worship them."
However, the girl in green was a bit dissatisfied upon hearing this and said.
"Young Master's words are a bit biased. Why don't immortals understand the suffering of the world? Perhaps they are busy and have no choice, it's not impossible."
The handsome young man looked at the girl in green and bowed and asked.
"May I ask who the young lady is?"
Although he was talking to the girl in green, his gaze was involuntarily attracted by the girl in white beside her.
The girl in green seemed even more dissatisfied and snorted coldly.
"A nobody from Dongting! And who are you?"
The tone was very much like a needle against a wheat awn, but this seemed to arouse the handsome young man's pride, and he said proudly.
"The eldest disciple under Danyangzi, the chief disciple of the Yaoguang Sword Sect, Ouyang Jianyi!"
His words attracted a burst of exclamation and whispers from the surroundings.
Clearly, the Yaoguang Sword Sect was very famous in this area.
However, the girl in green shook her head very ungraciously.
"Never heard of it!"
Ouyang Jianyi was stunned upon hearing this, his face flushed red. He seemed not to have expected that there would be someone who didn't know the Yaoguang Sword Sect. Fortunately, the girl in white helped him out.
The girl in white said softly.
"Ziyan, don't talk nonsense."
Her voice was like an oriole coming out of a valley, pearls falling on a jade plate, crisp and pleasant, with a trace of softness.
She smiled slightly at the handsome young man, pulled the girl in green, and turned to leave. It was this unintentional smile that almost hooked the young man's soul, and he stood there dumbfounded, watching them walk away.
Xia Buqian, who was standing beside Su Yuanshan, seemed to be touched and couldn't help but sigh.
"One is like flawless white jade, one is like a fairy in Langfeng Garden, they are really a match made in heaven!"
However, the military judge Zhai Burang tilted his leopard eyes and laughed loudly.
"Yinchai Xia is wrong! In this judge's opinion, they are clearly two different paths. One is mortal, one is immortal, how can they be a pair?"
Xia Buqian was stunned.
"Immortal? Is the adult saying that these two women are immortals?"
Zhai Burang stroked his beard and said.
"That girl in white has an aura of water spirit. Even if she is not an immortal, she must be a half-immortal body."
"The Five Lakes Dragon Monarch, the Four Seas Dragon King, the Twelve Creek Water Mansion Water God, and the Four Rivers Dragon God, all of their children have their own water spirit aura, so this judge judges that this girl should be one of the children of a certain Dragon Monarch."
"Achoo!"
Just after walking out of the gate of the Chenghuang Temple, the girl in white couldn't help but sneeze, looking surprised.
The girl in green felt a bit strange and couldn't help but ask.
"What's wrong, sister?"
The girl in white looked back at the main hall of the Chenghuang Temple and shook her head, saying.
"Nothing, let's go!"
The girl in green seemed to be still pouring out her dissatisfaction.
"The City God here is really something. The land is so dry and he doesn't care! He doesn't care about the life and death of the people. Is there such an immortal? Look at the plaque that says 'Protect the territory and pacify the people, bless the four directions', it's really ironic."
However, the girl in white said thoughtfully.
"Rain-making is the duty of the Dragon God, you know that, what does this have to do with the City God?"
The girl in green pouted.
"Then he should at least communicate with the Rain-Managing Dragon God in charge of the local area. Looking at the situation here, I guess he didn't even ask, just being a hands-off shopkeeper, even though he is the underworld parent official in charge of one side. Unlike our master who is so diligent."
The girl in white frowned, her eyebrows like paintings, and she shook her head gently.
"This place has been in a great drought for several years. It is said that the Rain-Managing Dragon God would never dare to neglect his duty, and the City God here could not possibly ignore it, otherwise he would be punished by the Heavenly Court. But things happened, so I'm afraid things are not as simple as you think!"
The girl in green's heart moved and she said.
"Isn't the master familiar with the Rain-Managing Dragon God here? Why don't we go back and ask him?"
The girl in white nodded slightly.
"It seems we can only go back and ask Father King."
The two women gradually walked into a deserted small alley in Tushan County and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, the three people and one fox appeared, and it was Su Yuanshan and the others. It turned out that they had been following them invisibly into the alley, and only appeared after confirming that the two women had left.
The military judge Zhai Burang stroked his beard and laughed.
"Look, this judge was right, she is indeed the daughter of a certain Dragon Monarch, and she is familiar with the Rain-Managing Dragon God in charge of this place."
"It seems that if we want to solve the mystery of this great drought, she is also one of the keys!"
Xia Buqian seemed a bit excited upon hearing this.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's catch up quickly?"
Seeing everyone looking at him, Su Yuanshan weighed it before saying.
"Fine, since that's the case, let's go and pay a visit to this Dragon Monarch!"
Seeing no one around, Su Yuanshan flicked his long sleeves and disappeared.
But they didn't know that on a distant mountain peak, a fierce man was watching everything here.
