Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 702
Guo Zhen of the Danding School is an alchemist enshrined by the court. He not only refines various Taoist pills for the nobles in the palace, but also prays for blessings, counts fortunes, and eliminates disasters. If there is a drought in a certain place Also ask for rain.

Such things are not something ordinary cultivators can do.

There must be people with real skills to be in charge.

Guo Zhenneng's ability to hang out in the court is naturally not bad. This time the fire in the capital disturbed the officials, and the officials specially ordered Guo Jing to pray for blessings and rain to extinguish the fire.

And his way of appearing on the stage, the spell of calling the wind and calling the rain is indeed very effective.

It's just that when the spell is about to be completed, it doesn't know why it works, and it's repeated several times.

This made Guo Zhen on the altar unavoidably annoyed.

"What kind of demons and monsters broke the spells of poor people? When the fire spread, countless people in the capital were killed and injured. How can such a great practice of meritorious deeds be stopped?" Look in the direction you came from.

I hope to detect some evil spirits.

But although he saw some ghosts and gods, those ghosts and gods were just waiting for the opportunity to steal incense and did not hinder the ability of the rain.

Continuing to investigate, he also saw traces of the Fire Spirit God, but the Fire Spirit God was only born in response to the fire, and it was impossible to stop the rain.

"Guo Zhenren, if you can't ask for this heavy rain, half of the south of the city will be burned." Li Xiuyuan said suddenly.

"Pindao naturally knows, why do you need to talk too much? Hey, who are you, how dare you appear near the altar of Pindao." Guo Zhen suddenly became surprised when he saw Li Xiuyuan.

But then he felt a dazzling sting in his Celestial Eye, and he was forced to close his Celestial Eye in an instant and put away his spells.

But when he glanced at it inadvertently just now, he seemed to see this person's purple aura covering the top, reflecting the clear light, and there were even more golden and black light undulating on the left and right, as if representing the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers, which made people feel trembling and fearful.

"This kind of luck can cover even the Celestial Eye. There is only one person in the world who has such luck. The saint who appeared in the capital a few days ago is a saint in the world." Guo Zhen's face changed slightly. Pay attention to the movement of the capital in the Taoist temple.

Some time ago, he could see the vision of the clear light shining on the south of the city, illuminating a piece of the sky, but the day before yesterday, there was thunder bursting beside the canal, and the purple air covered the roof. There was a thunder god haunting and killing evil spirits, and there were divine powers manifesting to suppress ghosts.

Such a big movement, as long as you are not blind, you will know it well.

"It turned out to be Mr. Li, the governor of Yangzhou. Guo Zhen, the poor man, paid a visit to Mr. Li." Guo Zhen immediately put away his face, and hurriedly bowed his hands respectfully, expressing his respect for this man.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Why does Master Guo need to be so polite, I came here only because I saw thunder coming from this place, and the heavy rain was about to fall. I didn't expect that the real person was casting spells to pray for rain, but the heavy rain wanted to stop, why couldn't I ask for it? "

"Lord Li doesn't know something. It's not that the poor are not doing their best, but the magic has failed. I don't know what kind of evil is blocking it. The heavy rain still can't come down. If the heavy rain is required, the evil must be killed." Guo said. Really open my mouth.

Li Xiuyuan pondered and said: "Since that's the case, does the real person know what kind of evil hinders the heavy rain from falling?"

Guo Zhenren also thought about it for a while and said: "The rain in the poor way is to save the world and save the people. This is a great event with immeasurable merit. The real big monsters and evil spirits will not be troubled by such a great merit. The fire coincided with God's will, so the heavy rain never stopped, and Pindao cast spells because of this.
Because of God's will, it just failed. "

"It's God's will again?" Li Xiuyuan smiled; "It's God's will, why did I see a lot of red-robed ghosts and gods in the south of the city before, holding command flags to direct the fire, they manipulated the fire and let the fire spread, this shouldn't be God's will."

"That's the incarnation of Huolingshen, but those ghosts and gods didn't stop the rain, I can be sure." Guo Zhen said.

Li Xiuyuan came over at this moment and said, "Since that's the case, how about asking for rain?"

Guo Zhen's expression moved slightly: "Master Li asked for rain?"

"Of course, I know a little bit about the magic of praying for rain. Let's see if my praying for rain will be blocked. If it is still like this, I will believe that this is God's will, not man-made." Li Xiuyuan said.

"I'm really ashamed of the meager skills of the poor Taoist priest. If that's the case, Mr. Lao Li will come on stage to pray for rain." Guo Zhen replied.

He had no choice but to pin his hopes on this sage on earth.

I hope that his prestige can calm down the ghosts and gods, and let the heavy rain fall, otherwise, my identity as an alchemist may come to an end.

Guo Zhenxin stepped down from the altar, feeling a little apprehensive, and glanced at the walls of the imperial city.

At this moment, above the walls of the imperial city.

Accompanied by the current officials, as well as the current empress and several princes, the ministers watched Guo Zhenren come on stage not far away to pray for rain.

Zhao Guanjia originally thought that the matter of asking for rain was not difficult for Guo Zhenren, because similar things had happened before, and they all went very smoothly.

"What's the matter, it was fine just now, the wind has picked up, the clouds have come, and the thunder has rang, and there is a tendency of heavy rain, why did the wind stop and the clouds clear in the blink of an eye." An accompanying official Looking at the vision in the sky, seeing the dark clouds dissipate and the heavy rain not falling, I suddenly became a little anxious, and endured
Can't stop asking.

"Officials, you see that Master Guo Zhen failed to pray for rain. He has given up and walked down from the altar."

With the support of the eunuch, Zhao Guan's family leaned on the city wall and watched, their swollen and pale face showed anger at this moment: "It's unreasonable, isn't he capable of calling the wind and rain, why can't he even ask for a heavy rain today when the capital is on fire? People, call Guo Zhen here, I want to cure him of praying for rain.

The crime of profit. "

"National teacher, where is the national teacher? Then send someone to tell the national teacher that I will let him replace Guo Zhen and come on stage to pray for rain. If it can rain heavily, I will reward you a lot."

The eunuch who immediately delivered the order immediately trotted down the imperial city to deliver the order.

But at this moment, an accompanying official suddenly said: "Look at the officials, there is a person who took the place of Guo Zhenren on the altar."

"Is it the national teacher?" Zhao Guan asked.

"No, the national teacher is still sitting in the carriage."

"That must be Guo Zhen's disciple. It is not good for him to ask for rain, and he wants his disciples to replace him." Zhao Guanjia said.

"Officials, that person is not a Taoist priest wearing Taoist robes, but a scholar. I don't know why, but the guards on the side didn't stop him." The accompanying official said.

Zhao Guanjia said: "Since they are irrelevant people, then blast them out. Don't spoil the important event of praying for rain. These scholars and literati are really hateful. I'm afraid they will preach the same thing again. I'm tired of hearing it."

He waved his hand and looked a little impatient.

But when the eunuch went to deliver the order again, Li Xiuyuan had already boarded the altar.

When he passed by Guo Zhen, Guo Zhen didn't move his lips, and whispered in a ventriloquism: "Li Shengren, be careful, the poor Taoist suspects that the fire is inseparable from the national teacher, and there is such a way in the whole capital." There are not many people who make clouds and rain, and what they do is God's will, but he uses it to deceive others

It's just a one-sided statement. "

Li Xiuyuan's heart trembled when he heard the words.

But Guo Zhen didn't say any more, just left the altar with a shame on his face.

It seems that nothing happened just now.

National teacher?
Li Xiuyuan also had doubts before, such a big fire is definitely not something that ordinary monsters dare to make, and what is the purpose of making such a big fire, he still can't figure it out.

Because no matter how evil the millennium monster is, it is impossible for him to murder people so recklessly.

It's just that no matter who set the fire, heavy rain must be called to quell it.

Li Xiuyuan walked up to the altar at this moment, he didn't say much, just took a copper bowl from the side, and then pointed out.

A stream of clear water gushed out and immediately filled the copper bowl.

He picked up the bowl of clear water and immediately poured it out.

Qingshui didn't land on the ground, but flew up to nine days and disappeared into the sky.

"Your Majesty has an order to drive that irrelevant scholar down from the altar, and don't let him hinder the important event of praying for rain." At this time, an eunuch ran over panting and passed the order.

The imperial army under the altar was stunned for a moment, and then a commander of the imperial army clasped his fists in response to the order, and immediately led a group of troops to the altar to drive the scholar away.

But when the commander of the forbidden army just stepped onto the altar.

In an instant, there was a strong wind blowing all around, and dark clouds billowed in the sky. There was a feeling that the storm had come, and with the sound of thunder, it seemed that a heavy rain would soon fall.

The commander stopped in his tracks immediately, he saw that Master Li on the altar was not messing with the big event of praying for rain, on the contrary, he was casting a spell to pray for rain.

It's just that the emperor's fate is difficult, so he still bites the bullet and leads the people up.

Li Xiuyuan frowned and looked at the sky at this moment. He had cast the rain calling technique, but he was not sure whether the rainstorm would fall.

But if his spells are useless, then all the rain spells in the capital are probably useless.
