Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 65
No one thought that a simple invitation to the gods would actually invite the legendary God of Thunder from the sky. No, it should not be the God of Thunder, but a General of Thunder under the command of the God of Thunder.

But it doesn't matter how to say it, the one who invited is a god.

This made the ignorant villagers in Dahu Village turn pale with fright, lying on the ground trembling, and even stopped the Shunliu prayer they had been saying before.

One by one seemed to be blinded, and didn't know what to do at this time.

Even the old village chief knelt on the ground trembling and sweating profusely. He didn't know whether it was nervousness or fear.

Li Xiuyuan understands this phenomenon of the villagers of Dahu Village. After all, they are ordinary villagers with little knowledge and limited experience. It is normal for them to be afraid, nervous, and at a loss when encountering such a situation.

"I am the thunder general in the sky, why are you so wronged and said quickly, I will surely uphold justice for you." The loud voice in the clouds continued to sound.

All the villagers were terrified at the moment, and the old village head secretly looked at Li Xiuyuan.

They didn't dare to talk to them, and felt that they didn't have the qualifications. Only Mr. Li Xiuyuan, who had invited this God of Thunder, was qualified to talk to this God of Thunder in the sky.

"It's blocked by the clouds, so I can't see clearly." Li Xiuyuan looked closely at the clouds, hoping to see the real body of General Thunder.

But it is blocked by the clouds, even if his eyes can see through all illusions, but if his vision is blocked, he can't see clearly what is hidden in the clouds, just like he can't see the people behind the wall, he can only hear sound.

"Maybe it's really the thunder general under the command of the god of thunder in the sky, maybe I'm overthinking."

He secretly thought about it, but still felt something was wrong.

How can there be a god appearing, hiding in the clouds and not showing up.

Immediately he opened his mouth and said: "General Lei in the sky, I am Li Xiuyuan from Guobei County. Just now, I burnt incense and prayed and chanted sacrificial rites. Please come to General Lei. I only hope that General Lei can do justice for the heavens and help the villagers of Dahu Village to kill the big lake in front of us." Among them, the evil water demon, in exchange for the peace of the villagers of Dahu Village."

"I know about the chaos caused by the water demon in Dahu, but your sacrifices and sincerity in Dahu Village are not enough, so I can't exterminate the demon for you today." The voice in the clouds continued to sound.

Not enough offerings, not enough sincerity?
Li Xiuyuan froze for a moment, not only him, but all the villagers in Dahu Village also froze.

You must know that the poor villagers of Dahu Village have already taken out all the sacrifices they can get. They are really powerless. This water monster has been in trouble for several years. They have lost the source of fish in Dahu Village. These villagers live in a day. The poorer than the day ah.

At this time, the old village head could only look at Li Xiuyuan helplessly, hoping that he could think of a way.

Li Xiuyuan also learned about the situation in Dahu Village before, knowing that Dahu Village's financial resources are limited.

"Lei Jiang in the sky, the villagers in Dahu Village are poor, and there is really no way to get any extra sacrifices. If Lei Jiang is willing to kill this water demon, I can replace the villagers of Xiahe Village to build a temple for Lei Jiang. Years, months, months The incense burns continuously." Li Xiuyuan said.

"How can a temple be enough? My god is the general of thunder in the sky. If I only get a temple in exchange for killing monsters, wouldn't it make the gods laugh at me? You must know that in the mortal world, if you invite people to do things, you also need to make people have a full meal. What's more, the people you invite are God." The thunder general's voice in the clouds continued to sound.

Li Xiuyuan frowned.

That Lei Jiang in the clouds spoke vulgarly and was full of philistine spirit. Was this said by a human or by a god?

"I don't know how Lei Jiang is willing to help the villagers of Dahu Village get rid of evil spirits." Li Xiuyuan asked again.

Lei Jiang in the clouds said: "The god needs a thousand sheep, a thousand cows, and a thousand pigs, throwing them into the lake to worship the god, plus ten temples, and burning incense every day. If it can be done, the god Immediately kill this monster for you, if it is not possible, this god will leave here, and will no longer care about the Great Lake water monster."

"This, so many sacrifices?" Old man Luo rolled his eyes when he heard this, and almost passed out.

Not to mention a thousand cattle and sheep, even ten pigs cannot be brought out.

Besides, the villagers of Dahu, who have such a rich family background, have already gone out to make a living, so why would they stick to this small village.

"Also, please ask the god of thunder in the sky to reduce some sacrifices. The village is so poor that it really can't afford so many sacrifices." Old man Luo supported his crumbling body, and he didn't know where he came from. He kowtowed heavily on the ground and begged.

The thunder general's voice in the clouds sounded again: "Don't you still have 10 taels of silver in your village? It's almost enough to make sacrifices like this."

10 taels~!

Hearing this, all the guards of the Li family were stunned.

Lei Jiang actually knew about this.

Immediately, Tieshan and the others looked at Li Xiuyuan in unison.

"Okay, I promise you, after killing the Great Lake Water Demon, a thousand pigs, sheep and cattle, and ten temples will all be sacrifices to the God of Thunder in the sky." Li Xiuyuan said immediately.

10 taels of silver bought the life of the water demon and saved a village. This is not a bad deal.

"You are a scholar, you mean what you say, and I believe in you." The thunder general's voice in the clouds returned, and he agreed to Li Xiuyuan's request.

"Boom~!"

At this time, the cloud layer split open, and a thunderbolt fell from the cloud layer, pierced the sky in an instant, and landed in the big lake in front of us.

"Crash!" A stormy wave exploded on the calm lake, and the waves splashed five or six feet high, as if a bomb had been thrown into the lake.

Seeing this moment, several timid villagers of Dahu Village fainted from fright.

Even the guards of the Li family were more courageous, so they felt weak in their hands and feet, and it was difficult to control themselves.

But Li Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment. After he saw the cloud split, the one hiding in the cloud was not Thor at all, but the shadow of a black fish.

Yes, the shadow of a black fish.

The black fish opened its mouth and spat out a ray of light, which landed on the lake, and just now a huge wave exploded, it was not a thunderstorm at all, it was just an illusion to deceive people.

"Could it be that the gods weren't invited at all, but that the water demon in Dahu Village came out of his body and pretended to be a god to deceive everyone." Li Xiuyuan suddenly realized this.

Only now did he understand why the black fish had been hiding in the clouds and refused to show up, why the black fish demon needed to increase the offerings, asking for three thousand pigs, cattle and sheep.

Feelings are not to be sacrificed to Thor, but to be food for oneself.

The black fish demon was injured and urgently needed food supplies, so he made such a condition.

Its purpose is to plan the 10 taels of silver brought by Li Xiuyuan, and use the financial resources of this 10 taels of silver to maintain his own health.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Xiuyuan immediately thought clearly.

After a huge splash exploded on the surface of the lake, it calmed down quickly.

At this time, the surface of the water was tumbling, and all kinds of fish and shrimps were killed and surfaced. In the center of the waves, a huge black fish with a belly was floating on the surface of the water, motionless.

"Dead, dead, that black fish demon is dead." Some villagers exclaimed when they saw this scene.

"It's really dead, that monster is dead, that's great."

"Finally dead, my son's revenge is finally avenged, woo woo."

The villagers of Dahu Village were excited, joyful, and weeping.

The water demon that endangered Dahu Village for several years and killed more than [-] people is finally dead.

"The water demon isn't dead at all, it's pretending to be dead to cooperate with its Yinshen acting."

Li Xiuyuan saw that although the black fish demon was floating on the water on its belly, it was actually not injured at all.

If it was struck to death by lightning, it would definitely not be so intact, and would definitely leave a scorched black corpse.

"What a water demon, not only has the way, but also has a lot of wisdom, and is a bit smarter than humans. This way, you can use the means of stealing the beam and changing the post, but you dare to go out of your body and pretend to be a ghost, and you just ran into my hand. I'm still thinking about how to deal with you." Li Xiuyuan's face turned cold.

He immediately turned around and walked a few steps to the side, and fetched the golden goose bow and spike arrows from the guards.

With a little finger, a strand of blood stained the Spike Arrow.

"Hey~!"

Almost without thinking, he raised his hand and shot an arrow.
