Chapter 124: The God of Water
"This temple has been dilapidated like this, and there are still gods guarding this place?" Amperet Qingxue said a little incredulously.
"Since there are gods here, we, as onmyoji, should bow down here to show our respect for the gods, after all, if what Qibao said is true, we were protected by the gods last night!" Jia Luo took out a few incense candles from the package behind him, these incense candles were originally used to set up some Yin-Yang magic arrays, but now in the current situation that they are not needed, they can also be used to worship the gods.
As they spoke, they picked up the incense candle in Jia Luo's hand, bowed to the dilapidated altar in front of them, and then inserted the incense candle on the altar.
"But last night my nose smelled that the god seemed to have a demonic aura on his body, and as a fox youkai, our nose is very sensitive, but I did hear the youkai called "Sleepy" and called the youkai with a green dragon wrapped around him a god! Qibao leaned on Ampere Qingxue's shoulder and said slowly.
"There is a green dragon wrapped around his body, with golden horns, and long hair that covers one eye, in my memory, it seems that I have never seen such a god, is it a very unknown god?" Ampei Qingxue whispered.
"Is that so?" Garo continued slowly: "The power of the gods comes from the belief and offerings of the believers, and the more faith and offerings you get, the stronger the divine power you get, but if there are gods that are forgotten by people...... Then this god will gradually lose its divine power, or even disappear, or it can stay in this world by turning into a monster! ”
"How so...?" Qibao said in surprise.
"Yes, at least I haven't heard of a god like this!" Ampei Qingxue said slowly.
"Is the law of the existence of the gods so cruel?" Chen Hao said leisurely: "It's better to be a salted fish like me, and you don't have to worry about anything." ”
"You're not afraid of killing you." Ampere Qingxue complained.
"Even if it's a salted fish, I'm the saltiest one, after all, I used to be a big guy, a big guy in the ghost world! Woohahaha! Chen Hao said teasingly.
"Bong, that's it, let's go on the road, the next location is Luling Mountain, we have to get ready." Garo stood up as he spoke, patting the dust off his body.
At this time, the outside of the temple had been baptized by heavy rain, and the flowers and plants were more energetic, and Chen Hao and the others embarked on a journey to continue to Luling Mountain.
Along the mountains and rivers, they climbed through about two or three hills, and they could see that there was a deep pond in front of them, but this pond cut off Chen Hao and their way forward!
"No, there's a big pond here, and it's not shown on the map." An Pei Qingxue looked at the drawings and maps in her hand and said: "There are a total of 24 routes to take from Yimu Forest to Luling Mountain, and the route we take should be unimpeded, how can we be blocked by such a pond?" ”
"Strange!" Garo said as he walked up to the pond in front of him, the water in the pond was so muddy that he couldn't see what was inside: "It looks like this pond was dug up recently." ”
"How so?" Ampei Qingxue also stepped forward to see that there were no creatures or plants in the pond, and the surface revealed a thick black.
"It's nothing, I'll just let the Raven Tengu catch us and fly over one by one." Chen Hao said as he took out the Demon Flag in his hand!
Suddenly, at this moment, the middle of the pond in front of everyone seemed to be boiling, and there was a gurgling sound of water, and in the middle of the pond, a man wearing a black kimono with a slender face and a kind smile rose from the bottom of the water, revealing his upper body.
"Is it a youkai?" Chen Hao said as he pulled out the ghost cut.
"Everyone, wait, I am the water god "Jozawa", the god who lives in this place, and I see that you seem to be in trouble, so I have specially appeared to help you. The man in front of him, who claimed to be the god of water, said slowly.
"Gods?" Amper's eyes looked at the man in front of him, and he didn't seem to feel any demonic power, and it didn't seem to be a monster.
"That's great, let's get over it, we're going to go on to the trial." Chen Hao said to the water god "Jingze" in front of him! ”
"It's always a little strange, how could a god live in such a muddy pool?" Jia Luo whispered to Ampei Qingxue beside him.
"You need not doubt that I, as a god, should bestow good fortune on the human beings who believe in me and help them through this difficult time!" As the self-proclaimed god spoke, he used his power to instantly rise from the bottom of the water, connecting the banks at both ends of the pond, and by following this path he could reach the other side of the pond.
"There's a way!" Chen Hao turned around and said to Ampei Qingxue and Jia Luo.
"But... It's always a little strange that this god... It always feels weird. Garo looked at the man in front of him who claimed to be the god of water, and a bad thought welled up in his heart.
At this time, Qibao said on the side: "My nose really can't smell any demonic energy, is it really a god?" ”
"Since the so-called gods have already presented the way, and they will not go in vain, there is no way to detour in this situation! Anyway, if something happens, let's just kill the guy in front of us who calls himself the god of water. At this time, Chen Hao said as he held the ghost cut in his hand and walked on the path summoned by the water god in front of him from underwater.
"Chen Hao...!" Jia Luo wanted to say something, but at this time, Chen Hao had already walked along the road!
"It's okay, just be careful, after all, this road is also the only way for us, and it must be taken!" Ampei Qingxue also followed Chen Hao on this road.
"Alas, well!" Garo then had no choice but to follow them, but he held the bow tightly in his hand.
"Thank you for your help." Ampere Qingxue said.
Suddenly, at this moment, the so-called water god in front of him suddenly changed his face, and said in a very strange voice: "By the way, you haven't offered me an offering yet!" Although I am a god, it doesn't seem good to help you so freely, after all, I only help those who believe in me. ”
"What...?" At this time, Chen Hao and An Pei Qingxue had almost walked to the center of the road, and suddenly felt that something was wrong with the words spoken by the water god in front of them.
"Then accept my help, and offer your offerings, and give me one of you! This is also your request for help from the gods! Hahahaha. ”
