Chapter 31: Immortal Spells
Zhang Liang looked at Gargamel in surprise and said, "Immortals? You? With your arrogant appearance, you are also worthy of being called a fairy? ”
"Have you ever seen a fairy? Can't immortals be arrogant? In my mind, immortals should be arrogant. My father often refused to give face to Jieli and the chiefs, and was very arrogant, but Jieli and the chiefs were respectful to my father......" Gargamel regained his composure.
Zhang Liang pointed to Gargamel and said to the people of the Tang Dynasty who were kneeling: "I am Zhang Liang, the Shaoqing of the Honglu Temple of the Tang Dynasty, you are waiting for foolish people, saying that he is an immortal, is there any evidence?" ”
A sturdy and honest peasant man stood up and said, "My lord, he is indeed a fairy, I have seen him in the downtown of Chang'an, and he has exerted his magical powers. At that time, many people in Chang'an saw it. ”
"Cast your powers? What kind of supernatural powers? Zhang Liang asked.
The peasant man replied, "Go back to your lordship, you have money on your body."
At that time, the immortal suddenly stopped a well-dressed rich boy of the Tang Dynasty and said to everyone: "The rich boy is a thief who just stole his money. ”
The rich boy refused to admit it and retorted: "I originally had twenty taels of silver on me, and it was enough to buy everything in Chang'an City, how could I steal your money?" ”
The immortal asked rhetorically, "Are you sure you only have twenty taels of silver on your body?" ”
The rich boy replied, "I'm sure it's only twenty taels of silver." As he spoke, he took out twenty taels of silver in front of everyone.
The fairy looked at the rich boy and said, "Okay, then let's let everyone see, did you steal my money?" ”
With that, the immortal's hand swept through the rich boy's cuff, and a Turkic silver coin appeared in the immortal's hand.
The rich boy was stunned at the time, saying that it was absolutely impossible, and he had never stolen anything.
The hand of the immortal crossed the chest of the rich boy again, and two more Turkic silver coins appeared in his hand.
Although the rich boy once again flatly denied that he had not stolen anything, everyone present did not believe it.
After that, the hands of the gods crossed the rich boy again and again, which was dazzling, but every time a silver coin was taken out, and gradually more and more silver coins were taken out from the rich boy, about four or five catties, everyone felt that the rich man would never hide so many silver coins, and he could walk very leisurely. But the fairy was still interested, as if the rich boy stole his silver coins, and he knew where they were hidden, and his hands kept waving, and the silver coins were increasing.
Finally, when the fairy took out a silver coin from the mouth of the rich boy, his hand stopped waving.
The rich boy who had already woken up bowed to the gods and said, "Master, such a miraculous means, admire and admire." ”
The fairy also saluted: "The carving insect skill makes everyone smile." ”
The magical powers of the gods were cheered and praised by the surrounding people in unison.
The gods looked at the people who were as enthusiastic as fire, and their faces showed joy.
Suddenly, he picked up the four or five pounds of silver coins he had just found from the rich boy, came to a well next to the road, and then poured all the silver coins into the well without the slightest hesitation. While everyone felt inexplicable, they also felt a sense of pity. And the immortals seemed so calm and calm.
I saw him shouting at the well, "The money is coming." I saw that the silver coins that had just been thrown down jumped out of the water one after another and returned to the hands of the gods like a fish leaping over the dragon gate.
At that time, the people cheered and were very excited, and they knelt down one after another, saying: "The gods have appeared, the gods have appeared." ”
After hearing this, Zhang Liang asked suspiciously: "Is it really so magical?" ”
Dahan replied: "The villain guarantees that everything he says is true. At that time, many people in Chang'an saw it. The Ermao and Sanzhu who entered Chang'an with me in this village can testify. ”
As soon as the words fell, from among the people, two more men stood up, one high and one low, both of them were peasant men with dark skin, strong bodies, and simple faces. The two said in unison: "Lord Hui, Ermao (Sanzhuzi) is willing to vouch, and the situation was indeed the case at that time." ”
Seeing that someone was vouching, Zhang Liang judged that Gargamel's magical powers in the downtown should be true. But thinking of the way Gargamel's eyes trembled with fear and trembling when he was desperate to kill Gargamel just now, he felt that there must be something wrong with this, would an immortal with great powers be afraid of himself as a mortal?
Zhang Liang pointed to the kneeling people and asked the sturdy man, "Then what are you doing in Honglu Temple today?" ”
The man replied: "The villain is from Wugong County near Chang'an, and my Wugong County has not had a drop of rain since the third year of Wude. On that day, Xiaomin entered the city with Ermao and Sanzhuzi, and was fortunate to see the appearance of the gods exerting their magical powers. Back in the village, the three of us discussed, can we invite the gods to our village to ask for rain, alleviate the drought, and save the crops in the fields? Those crops are the life of our people. We went to find the old patriarch, the old patriarch supported on the spot, through many inquiries, we knew that the gods were here, so today we came with tribute, hoping that the gods could be merciful and save the people of my martial arts county. ”
After that, the big man knelt down again, kowtowed to Gargamel and said, "Please have mercy on the people of my martial arts county and show your magical powers." ”
Gargamel looked at the people kneeling in front of him, and said arrogantly, "Why do you think I'm going to ask for rain?" ”
At this time, a gray-haired old man stood up from the kneeling people, and with the support of the elite man, he walked up to Gargamel, knelt down and said, "I am the patriarch of Wugong County. Wugong County has not received any grains for two years, there is really no way, immortals, your magic power is strong, and your magical powers are vast, please be merciful and have mercy on the people of my Wugong County. ”
After that, the old tears were rampant, and he frequently kowtowed to Gargamel.
Gargamel looked coldly at the old man who kowtowed again and again, his expression was indifferent, he looked at the sky, and said in an emotionless voice: "Okay, God has the virtue of a good life, I will ask for a rain for you to solve your difficulties." ”
The people who fell to their knees cheered and said to each other, "There is salvation, at last there is salvation." The gods are willing to use their magical powers, great, really good. ”
Looking at the cheering people, Zhang Liang looked Gargamel up and down with a questioning look, he didn't believe that such a person would still beg for rain?
