Chapter 111: Rain God Messenger?
In the middle of a desert full of yellow sand, there is a small and small sand city.
There are one or two wooden poles standing on each loess sand house in the sand city, and those wooden poles standing on the sand houses are hung with colorful ribbons fluttering in the wind, and those ribbons are fluttering in the wind, like a multi-colored carp swimming in the sky.
This sand city is called Xitu or Cheng, which is one of the thousands of counties in the ancient Lan Kingdom. Situ or Ci is located in the westernmost part of the kingdom of Quran and is part of the western border of the kingdom of Quran, next to other countries.
Because the western soil or city is remote and the national border is also a national border, there are people from all walks of life, such as fugitives, merchants, and illegal immigrants.
"Hula, hula, hula, hula. ”
Yellow-black skinned, disheveled, and clothed in animal skins were forming a circle of people around a burning bonfire under the scorching sun, and their mouths didn't know what they were talking about, much like they were holding a ritual.
At this time, out of the inner circle of the human circle came an old man in a black Taoist robe with a face like the bark of a dead wood tree.
He also wore a red oilcloth hat on his head, and the scepter in his hand was engraved with ancient words.
The old man walked out of the circle and came to the campfire, and then turned to face the crowd. The old man waved the scepter in his hand to everyone, and when everyone saw it, their chattering stopped instantly, and then they all focused on the old man and the old man who was about to start the performance.
When the old man saw that everyone had stopped chattering, he took the scepter in his hand and slapped it to the ground, not knowing what he was doing about feudal superstition.
Sure enough, it was a traditional plot of feudal superstition, and after everyone saw the old man slapping the scepter in his hand to the ground, he immediately knelt down in unison, and his head was even more attached to the ground.
"Hula-hu-la-hu, hu-hu-la-la!" the old man raised his scepter in his hand, closed his eyes, and recited an incantation that he didn't know.
At this moment, the sky was instantly covered by a huge black cloud, and among the black clouds, there were lightning bolts like silver snakes shuttling, accompanied by bursts of heart-breaking thunder, which can be called extremely spectacular.
When the old man heard the roar of thunder overhead, he immediately bounced his head, and stared at the scene above him in astonishment with his dull eyes, and the old man's face was full of surprise, as if he had not expected it.
When the people kneeling on the ground heard the sound from the heavenly dome, they raised their heads and looked at the black spectacle of the heavenly dome with a look of even greater surprise than the old man.
"It's going to rain, it's going to rain, Old Man Zhou is really useful! It's really godly!" Everyone looked at each other with surprised expressions, and the words in their mouths were full of joy.
Before everyone was happy, a big white hole suddenly appeared in the huge black cloud of the sky, and from the big white hole, a man and a woman ran out.
The two of them descended rapidly from the white hole in the heavenly dome towards the western earth or city, and there were thousands of white lights passing by them, and under this background, the man and the woman were like two angels coming into the world.
"That's someone sent by the rain god to help us!" shouted someone from the crowd.
When the old man heard the voice, he looked at the crowd with a surprised face, completely unaware of what was happening.
The old man originally wanted to run away while the crowd was bowing before, and a large amount of soul seal jade was already in his secret treasure bag, and there was no need for him to play with these rich fools anymore.
He didn't want to ask for rain in the first place, but he just wanted to use his secret method to cause a stir to deceive those foolish people, and then run away while everyone's faces were close to the ground, but the development of things had fallen out of his plan.
After the wizard reacted, he immediately pointed to a man and a woman who were landing towards them, and loudly echoed the previous voice: "Yes, it is sent by the rain god to save us, quickly bow and bow to meet the messenger of the rain god." ”
As soon as everyone heard the words of this false sorcerer, they all stuck their heads on the ground, and reverently waited for the arrival of the "Rain God Messenger".
When the old man saw that all the eyes of the people were on the ground, and no one paid any attention to him, he immediately turned into an earth-colored streamer and rushed away towards the city.
