"Hurry, move quickly, hurry up and finish moving these things, there is still a ship to unload behind!" A foreman was shouting at a group of coolies carrying goods at a hot dock, making everyone nimble.

When the coolies who were carrying the goods heard the foreman's words, they were angry in their hearts, but their movements were indeed faster.

It's not that they're afraid of the foreman, but that the faster they move, the more money they make, and they come to this dock to work as coolies, just to make more money.

After a busy morning, all the coolies were tired and sweaty, including the foreman on the dock, and their voices were a little hoarse.

"There are more and more boats on the Jade River, and there are more rare things of all kinds, two days ago I carried the goods, and I actually saw a glass treasure mirror transported from Jingzhou, and I had to be careful when I moved it, until it landed, and I didn't let go of this heart. A laborer said to the man next to him as he ate the food in his hand.

"Glass treasure mirror, I've heard of this, it seems to be a birthday from the former head of the Gao family, a gift from the children and grandchildren of the next generation, but I also moved a box of valuables yesterday, it seems to be something for my daughter's family, and I heard that it is also very valuable. Hearing the laborer's words, another man who was eating, chewing on the food in his mouth, said something slurred.

"Don't talk about this, let's think about it, this month is over, how much wages can we earn, last month the stupid boy in the village next door to us, with all his strength, but he earned a full three taels of silver, originally no one wanted to marry that stupid boy, but in the past two days, the people who said they were close to each other are about to break through the threshold!"

"That's right, let's not worry about these things, we just need to think about it, see how much we can earn this month, and buy something for the family, that's enough, to say that this new county lord really has the ability, it's only been a year, this originally deserted Yuhe Wharf has become so lively now, and it has also added such a job to us, what a good official!" As soon as the box was opened, the people around naturally couldn't help but interject, everyone had worked hard all morning, and eating at this time was also the most relaxing time.

"This is not the credit of the county lord alone, but also the Mohe River chief of Qingmei Guan, this Taoist is our local son of Zi'an County, before the Jade River was reopened, this Mo River was alone on the river, on the Jade River for ten years, and all the monsters in the Jade River were killed, so that these passing ships could pass with peace of mind. ”

......

A group of laborers on the dock chatted loudly together, for the changes in Zi'an County today, they attributed all the credit to the county and the Mohe River of Qingmei Guan, and more than a thousand meters away from them, not far from the bank, on the teahouse, a young man heard the words in his ears, the corners of his mouth pulled slightly, and his face showed a trace of embarrassment.

This young man is dressed in a light blue robe, without any accessories on his body, and even the hair on the top of his head is very casually taken care of with a wooden hairpin, but he sits there with a feeling of floating out of the dust, with his handsome face, anyone has to praise, "What a young man!"

This handsome young man is naturally Mohe.

Now it has been a year since the Qingmei Daoist was gone, and Mo He has also reached the age of fourteen, and the age of fourteen is not small in this world, and many people have already started a family.

And since the departure of Qingmei Daochang, Mo He, who is now the only Taoist official in Zi'an County, will no longer treat him as a child.

Mo He turned his head and glanced at the scenery of the Jade River outside the window, and now this Jade River Wharf is completely different from a year ago, which looks prosperous and lively.

Originally, the open area around the wharf has now more than a variety of buildings, taverns, teahouses, cloth villages, and restaurants are all available, although because of the long time of establishment, some places are still somewhat simple, but there is already a foundation of all walks of life, it can be expected that in the future, this place, as long as there is no accident, may be the most prosperous place in Zi'an County.

Picking up the tea on the table, Mo He put it to his lips and took a sip gently, retracting his attention, and at the same time suppressing the trace of embarrassment that rose in his heart, while secretly thinking to himself.

"It's just that I did advertising, but I didn't expect the effect to be so outrageous, and I don't need to put too much thought into it at all!"

That's right, these hard workers on the docks, what they are talking about, to a certain extent, is actually fueled by Mohe.

Mo He is very clear, the fragrance of wine is also afraid of the truth of the deep alley, some things want to be known, so what is indispensable is publicity, this kind of self-selling and boasting behavior, many people in this world can't pull off this face, but Mo He doesn't have too many concerns.

The reason why he did this was because of the Qingmei Daoist, and now the Qingmei Daoist has ascended to the divine throne, although he is now in the underworld, but the power of incense belief is still able to be received by the Qingmei Daoist.

As a disciple himself, the only thing that can help the Qingmei Daoist now is to let the Qingmei Daoist's temple be prosperous, and for this reason, Mo He did this in secret.

The biography he wrote for the Qingmei Daochang,Through the deeds of the Qingmei Taochang,Slightly carried out some artistic processing,And then spread it.,Originally, I just wanted the Qingme Taoist to be often mentioned by everyone.,So as to ensure that the incense is vigorous.,But I didn't expect things to be so powerful in the end.,Even with Mohe himself.,Suddenly it was also deified.。

As far as the hard workers talked about just now, the Mo River was indeed there by boat, but there were not so many times at all, and because of that time when the sixth prince Xia Yuan came to Zi'an County through the Jade River, he had already cleaned up a group of water demons in the Jade River, and the Mo River was boated on the river several times, but only dealt with a few water demons that were not a big threat, and there was no story of the demons in the long water of the Mo River that everyone was talking about later.

And what embarrassed Mo He the most was that he knew that these things would be so outrageous now, and it was not unrelated to his initial push, so every time he heard someone talking about these things, Mo He felt a little awkward in his heart now.

Suddenly, Mo He's movements paused slightly, his eyes fell on the surface of the Yuhe River, and he secretly said in his heart.

"It's coming!"

As soon as his mind moved, Mo He's figure immediately jumped out of the window of the teahouse and ran towards the dock, and almost at the moment when Mo He jumped off the teahouse, the water near the Yuhe wharf suddenly stirred up a wave of water, and the laborers who were eating looked back and saw that in the middle of the water waves, there was a water demon the size of two people, which was opening its mouth wide and coming towards the top of their heads.

"Monster!" At this moment, the laborers were so frightened that they almost lost their souls, threw the food in their hands, used their hands and feet together, and retreated backwards even with their rolling belts.

And one of the more unlucky ones happened to be targeted by the water demon and wanted to escape, but found that his feet were stuck by a puddle of water, and he suddenly felt that he was afraid of death.

Just as the water demon's blood basin descended, the laborer suddenly heard a voice in his ears.

"Demon, you dare!"

Accompanied by the voice, there was a blue-black light, this blue-black light, like a speeding beast, directly flew the water demon that pounced in front of the laborer.

Before the laborer could react, a white light flashed in front of him, as if it were a rain of needles, and then a figure passed in front of his eyes.

When the figure passed in front of his eyes, the laborer woke up like from a dream, and immediately screamed, and retreated backwards.

However, as soon as he turned around, he found that the companions who had fled just now had stopped at this time, and stood there one by one, but their eyes were looking in the direction of the water, and several of them were more courageous, and their faces showed excitement.

The laborer hurriedly ran to his companion's side, still a little frightened, but when he followed his companion's gaze and also looked at the water, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then shouted in a lost voice: "It's Mo River Chief!"

At this time, Mo He was standing on the water, pinching a seal with one hand, and holding the Moyu bamboo cane in the other hand, a layer of water, as if it was a net, controlling the water demon in it, making it impossible to escape.

Maybe this water demon would never have dreamed that the water that had always been the most comfortable would one day turn into a net that bound him and cut off his own way of life.

Looking at the water demon in the net who had been injured, the Moyu bamboo staff in Mo He's hand swung forward again and hit the water demon in the net fiercely, beating the water demon all over, and his breath immediately became much weaker.

Looking at the water demon in the net that has become dying, the corner of Mo He's mouth showed a smile, now to deal with such a water demon, he is also experienced, he will not show mercy when he makes a move, first take advantage of the opportunity for the water demon to attack people, and directly use the black jade bamboo cane to give a ruthless one, followed by a needle rain technique, completely hit the water demon, and then cut off its way of life, capture it alive, a set of actions are smooth, simply neat.

Carrying the water demon who was bound in the water net, Mo He returned to the shore, and many people around him surrounded him, praising Mo He.

"Congratulations to River Chief Mo for subduing another water demon!"

"Thank you to the river chief Mo for coming to the rescue, if it weren't for the Taoist chief appearing in time, these hard workers on our dock would be in danger!"

......

In the face of the praise of the people around him, Mo He always had a faint smile on his face, and then walked forward slowly, and said at the same time: "As a Taoist official of Zi'an County, this is my duty, you don't have to be like this, if you have the heart, you can go to my master's temple to burn incense, and praise me in front of his old man." ”
