Chapter 242: Resurrection of the Ruler Dragon
Before Mo Xuan could speak, Yu Heng'er glanced at Wu Ji, "Originally, I wanted to leave first! But now, this girl is not leaving! Da Bai! Xiao Hei! Let's go to Fengqiu!"
Da Bai had a calm face and walked with his head down, but Xiao Hei was grinning with a big smile on his face, quite happy.
When Wu Ji behind him heard this, he suddenly became angry, gritted his teeth and pointed at Yu Heng'er, "You!"
"What am I?!" Yu Heng'er jumped up instantly, turned her head and glared at Wu Ji, "The little waste of the second round of cultivation! What do you want?!"
"Presumptuous!"
With a cold snort from the front, Mo Liqing turned his head and glanced at Yu Heng'er coldly, and then said to Mo Xuan: "People who are optimistic about you, don't talk too much! Don't forget the purpose of this trip!"
Before Mo Xuan could say anything, Da Bai raised his head violently, and with a "hiss!" at Mo Liqing, he bared his teeth and roared out a sound wave that only Mo Liqing could detect.
This sound wave instantly swept around Mo Liqing's body, and the cultivation aura of the Great White Six Wheels directly forced Mo Liqing's breath tightened.
In Mo Liqing's eyes, his pupils suddenly constricted, staring at Da Bai.
Yu Heng'er patted Da Bai's head, "Da Bai is good, don't make trouble, give Mo Xuan a face......"
Da Bai glanced at Mo Liqing gloomily, then lowered his head and continued to walk, Mo Liqing squinted at Da Bai slightly, swept over Mo Xuan, turned around and drove the horse to continue walking.
Mo Xuan pursed his lips and said nothing, patted the horse's buttocks, and followed the team.
After these few words, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding along the way, and no one said a word......
It wasn't until they returned to the City Lord's Mansion that the housekeeper had arranged rooms for everyone that everyone separated and went back to rest.
......
This stay is a full three days.
Three days allowed everyone to recover from the fatigue of running all the way and prepare for the next part of the journey.
Regarding the rumors of the messenger of the water god, there were rumors in Fengqiu City for three days, and some said that Mo Xuan was true. Some people say that Mo Xuan is fake, and in the case of this quarrel, on the third day, whether the ruler dragon can appear in the city lord's mansion has become the most important deciding factor.
Therefore, for three days, there was a constant commotion in front of the city lord's mansion, and some people were clamoring to see the messenger of the water god and ask where the priest of the golden carp had gone, or hoping to sneak in and see the scene of the water god's resurrection of the city lord......
Mo Xuan originally thought that Mo Liqing's persecution would be difficult to deal with. But as soon as he returned to the city, Mo Liqing disappeared without a trace as before.
In this way, Mo Xuan was also happy and comfortable, and he didn't need to explain anything.
However, in the past three days, there was another incident that caught Mo Xuan's attention......
Qilong's younger brother Qihu was originally a city defense army around Fengqiu City, but since Jiang Huayang and Luo Wen stayed in the city lord's mansion, he should have gone outside the city to defend himself. But in the name of the city lord's younger brother, he lived in the city lord's mansion, and it was very close to Jiang Huayang and Luo Wen's courtyard, even closer than Mo Liqing's guards.
Although Mo Xuan asked Jiang Huayang and Luo Wen. Did the ruler tiger do anything wrong, but the answer he got was that the ruler tiger was very conscientious to guard around the courtyard and did not harass them.
Since he didn't find anything, Mo Xuan dispelled the doubts in his heart. Concentrate on what will happen on the third day.
......
On the third day, outside the gate of the city lord's mansion, there were people early in the morning. They came one after another, kneeling on the ground in front of the gate, some dragging grain and rice in their hands, and some holding meat and fur, which were the offerings that the people often brought to participate in the sacrificial ceremony.
As it became more and more noon, there were more and more people, and the believers who believed that Mo Xuan was the messenger of the water god knelt down and sincerely prayed for the blessing of the water god.
Those who don't believe it stand a little farther away, holding their arms and watching the excitement.
"Just take a look!" A young man sneered, "What kind of water god messenger is not as old as me! He is a fart water god messenger, the city lord will definitely not be resurrected today! He has already drowned in the river!"
A middle-aged uncle next to him scratched his beard and said, "Maybe the city lord didn't jump into the river at all?"
"Impossible! I watched the city lord jump into the river! I haven't come out for at least half a day!" said a slightly older man, "Whoever of you has been diving into the water for so long will have to drown!"
When the young and middle-aged people saw that the old man was full of words, they all pouted and stopped talking, as if they didn't believe it, but there was no evidence to refute it.
......
In the city lord's mansion, the ruler dragon cultivated in his quiet room for two days and never went out.
However, Qihu and his generals had already visited him, and they did not get any information......
"Mo Xuan, come and see! The street at the gate is full of people!" Feng Wuji lay on the crack of the door of the City Lord's Mansion, looking out and shouting.
Mo Xuan instructed Yu Heng'er to stay in the courtyard with the big white and the little black, and he came to the front of the courtyard gate, saw that everyone was there, smiled, and explained: "In the past few days, everyone may have known the Tao, and there is a priest of the Witch God Temple who said that the water god was angry, and he insisted that the city lord jump into the river to sacrifice the god......"
"As a result, there was a master in the city defense army, and he saw that the priest was a fish demon, so he instructed me to save the city lord from the water, and he himself went to deal with the fish demon......" Mo Xuan said this, sighed and said: "In the end, I rescued the city lord, but the master did not come back, I think he had been poisoned by the fish demon......
Qihu was on the side, raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and hurriedly interjected and asked, "Young Master Mo Xuan, what do you say this person looks like? Why haven't I heard that my brother has such a powerful person?"
"What Mo Xuan Gongzi said is right!" Behind him, the ruler dragon slowly walked out, "That master, maybe not a character in the mansion, may be a senior who has been chasing and killing the fish demon, hiding in the team in a low-key manner, ready to shoot at any time......"
With the help of the ruler dragon, Mo Xuan nodded slightly, signaling that what the ruler dragon said was very reasonable.
"However, the people in the city still don't want to believe that the fake priest is a demon clan, so I gave Mo Xuan Gongzi an idea, let him pretend to be the messenger of the water god, and order the people to repair the river embankment to avoid a disaster......" Qi Long said: "I will make it clear to you today, I still hope that Mo Xuan Gongzi can pretend to go on, so that the people will not cause chaos because they are too disappointed!"
After that, the ruler dragon looked at Mo Xuan and pleaded: "Prince Mo Xuan, for the sake of the safety of Fengqiu City, please ask the prince to help the ruler dragon again this time......"
Mo Xuan glanced around, everyone heard this explanation, and finally the mystery in their hearts was solved, and one by one they suddenly realized their expressions, even the ruler tiger nodded again and again, and the eyes that looked at Mo Xuan were full of awe......
"Since the city lord said it, I, Mo Xuan, naturally want to contribute to Fengqiu City!" Mo Xuan said righteously: "I'll pretend to be the messenger of the water god for the time being, please don't talk about it......"
Everyone around nodded one after another, and the soldiers of the courtyard came to the gate, stretched out their hands to pull the door, and glanced at Mo Xuan in awe, as if they wanted to wait for Mo Xuan to be ready before opening the door.
Mo Xuan pretended to be nervous and took a deep breath and glanced at Qilong.
The ruler nodded at the soldier, and the soldier opened the gate with a "squeak", and there were nearly 10,000 people standing bustling outside the door......
"Boom ......"
As soon as the door of the house opened, all the people on the street were in a stir, and they looked here one by one on tiptoe and squeezed the crowd. Let's see if the city lord has really been resurrected!
Mo Xuan glanced at the ruler dragon, who took a half step back.
Mo Xuan stepped forward, his expression sank, and he directly poured Yuan Li into his throat, and shouted loudly: "Everyone is quiet! I am the messenger of the water god!"
Sure enough, this voice roared out, and the door instantly quieted down, and everyone was still tiptoeing to see what Mo Xuan, the messenger of the water god, looked like......
"That fake priest Jin Li, pretending to be the priest of the Witch God Temple, said to worship the god of water! In fact, all the tributes of the living people who jumped into the river were eaten by him!" Mo Xuan said in a deep voice: "Such a blasphemy, the god of water is naturally furious, and sends down a flood to punish those who do not understand the reason and believe in the fake priest at will!"
Among the people kneeling in front of the door, when they heard Mo Xuan's words, some people bowed their heads in shame, their faces were red and they didn't dare to speak.
"It's okay! Lord Qilong City Lord understands the righteousness and is willing to sacrifice himself for you ignorant people and jump into the river to sacrifice to the water god!" Mo Xuan glared and scolded: "Those people present, you touch your conscience and say, did the city lord jump into the river to save you?!"
Some of the believers choked up and wept, and in a panic knelt down and bowed, begging for forgiveness from the god of water. There are even people who saw the ruler dragon jumping into the river with their own eyes, and they told everyone the deeds again, and Mo Xuan who listened to it only felt extremely sad......
"Lord Water God promised to save the City Lord in three days!" Mo Xuan said coldly: "Now, the Water God has fulfilled this promise!
With that, Mo Xuan stood sideways, and the ruler dragon stepped forward and stood up. (To be continued......)
