The sun is rising.
The morning sun falls from the sky.
Smoke is rising from the river.
The sun sets and reflects the colorful colors.
The people in Linhuan Pass were still guarding outside the Water Temple, fearful and helpless.
The water god...is dead!
In their minds, the water god is a god sent from heaven to bless their land, water, weather, and peace throughout the seasons.
But now, the Water God died here.
If this provokes the wrath of God... I'm afraid there will be a flood that will flood the entire Linhuan Pass, as well as the surrounding villages.
No one can run away!
The people were naturally terrified.
We can only place our hope on the three-eyed immortal who killed the Water God!
Yes, it’s this immortal!
The Three-Eyed Immortal can kill even the Water God, so he can definitely bless them with good weather!
They only need to turn to worship this immortal and they will be the same as before!
At this time, Wen Zhong walked out of the Water Temple.
The golden morning light shone on him, giving him a halo, making him look like a supreme god.
"We are waiting for the people of Linhuan Pass to pay their respects to the Immortal!"
I don’t know who took the lead, but all the people knelt down one after another.
Then, an old and skinny old man said tremblingly: "We are willing to pay tribute every month, burn incense and worship day and night. I sincerely ask the immortal to protect us and bless me to have good weather and peace in all seasons at Linhuan Pass!"
All the people followed and shouted:
"I sincerely ask the Immortal to bless me with good weather and good weather at Linhuan Pass and peace in all seasons!"
Listening to the roaring sound like a tsunami, Wen Zhong could not hide the disappointment in his eyes.
Especially after receiving the baptism of the "Encyclopedia", he has deeply realized that the human race alone can have enough food and clothing!
He took a deep breath and looked at the people with a solemn expression.
"Why must there be a water god?"
"Without the Water God, wouldn't you be able to grow crops?"
"Without the water god moving clouds and making rain, wouldn't you be able to get water from the river?"
…
All the people just looked at him, looking at this immortal who could kill gods.
No one could answer his question.
Because they have been like this for generations and generations.
The Water God can be replaced, but cannot be left behind!
Without the water god, who would bless them with good weather?
Looking at their expressions, Wen Zhong already knew what they were thinking.
They...have no idea!
"The Huaishui God who was killed by me before was a fake. Do you know what the real Huaishui God is like?"
Wen Zhong looked at the crowd and said.
Still no one answered.
Wen Zhong didn't care, and said to himself: "The god of Huai River in ancient times was the great sage Wuzhi Qi of Water Ape.
He has great magical powers and is able to practice Tao. With the power of the great flood, he submerged all the plains and cities... and turned the entire area of billions of miles into a country!
People could only hide high on the mountaintops and let the floods rage, but there was nothing they could do.
However, a human man named Dayu stepped forward!
He led the people, channeled the rivers, went through hardships and dangers, and led the great flood into the sea...
Even the arrogant God of Huai River was suppressed by Dayu at the foot of Turtle Mountain..."
He slowly told everyone the story of Dayu's flood control.
When they heard that even those powerful mountain gods and water gods obeyed orders in front of Dayu, and those who disobeyed were suppressed, everyone showed strong doubts.
How could God obey human orders?
How can man suppress God?
At this time, Wen Zhong shouted loudly: "God, the reason why he is God is because people believe in Him!"
As he spoke, he took out the triangular flag, looked at the crowd and said, "Now I can give you a chance to become the Water God. Which of you wants to become the Water God?"
"Become a water god?"
All the people were stunned.
They had never heard of such a thing.
Can mortals like them also be water gods?
I have never seen it for generations!
Wen Zhong nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "To become the water god here, you have to shoulder the responsibility of raising clouds, spreading rain, and regulating the water veins thousands of miles away on both sides of the Huaihe River. This is not a child's play. If any of you feel that you are qualified, Then stand in front on your own!
Once chosen, you have to swear to God!
We must fulfill our responsibilities, be conscientious, be fair and impartial, and must not show any favoritism, we must not let down the trust of the people, and we must not rely on the power of law to act recklessly!
If there is any violation, the punishment from heaven will be imminent!
There is absolutely no forgiveness at all!
Therefore, you must think carefully before coming up. "
After he finished speaking, an eleven or twelve-year-old child asked curiously: "Shangxian, can we mortals really be water gods?"
"nature!"
Wen Zhong said categorically.
"Then I want to be the water god!"
The child rushed forward with his hands raised.
A short and stocky man with thick eyebrows and big eyes ignored the dissuasion of the people around him, mustered up the courage to step forward, and said tremblingly: "I want to be a water god, too!"
Then, a few more courageous people stood up.
Wen Zhong nodded and said calmly: "There is only one Water God, and you are the candidates now. Now they are lined up. Everyone present will stand behind whoever they are willing to support as the Water God...
The person who gets the most support will be named the Linhuan Pass Water God! "
Soon, everyone dispersed in doubt.
In the end, it was the stocky man at the beginning who won the most support.
Wen Zhong looked at him, "What's your name?"
The short and stocky man immediately knelt down and said, "Everyone calls Xiaoren Shi bold!"
Wen Zhong looked at Shi DaDa.
He has a strong body, thick hands and feet, a simple and honest face, and looks very simple.
"Since most people trust you, then you will be the water god... Come, take this flag and swear an oath to heaven!"
"Here!"
Shi DaDaDang honestly took the triangular flag and read loudly after Wen Zhong:
"I, a member of the Great Shang Linhuan Pass, Shi DaDa... I am here today to swear an oath to Heaven... to make good use of the magic power of the water god and never rely on it to act recklessly... I respectfully ask Heaven to take a lesson from this!"
After saying the last sentence, Shi Bingdao, who was kneeling on the ground, discovered in horror that something seemed to be hanging down from the nine heavens!
Not only that, the small triangular flag in his hand also emitted a clear light, wrapping him in it like ripples of water.
At this moment, it seemed that he only needed to move his fingers to make the surging Huaihe River not far away fly high into the sky, turn into clouds, and fall into rain...
The excitement in his heart could not be increased.
Everything the Immortal said is true!
He...has really become a water god!
But in an instant, he remembered the oath he had just made.
If you make a mistake from now on, the punishment from heaven will come immediately!
…
Southwest of Linhuan Pass, hundreds of thousands of miles away.
In a valley covered by a formation somewhere, three Taoists sat in a circle facing a pond.
There are white lotuses all over the pond, exuding a dense aura of color all the time, spewing out the vitality of heaven and earth, making the whole valley rich in aura, which is no worse than those in the Cave Heaven Blessed Land.
The three Taoists relied on the pure spiritual energy revealed by these white lotus flowers to cultivate, which was no different from staying in the Paradise of Cave Heaven.
Suddenly, a faint voice sounded from the bottom of their hearts.
The three Taoists stopped to meditate and listened attentively.
"The Water God's throne in Linhuan Pass is broken, and the Water God's flag is held by a mortal. Please go find out the situation as soon as possible!"
Soon, the three of them opened their eyes, lowered their heads and said:
"I obey my orders."
That voice gradually faded away in their hearts.
The old Taoist wearing a black robe with white beard and hair took a deep breath, looked to the left and right and sighed: "The Linhuan Pass Water God is an eight-clawed demon. He has always been arrogant and dared to call himself the Huaishui Water God.
When he was granted the title of Water God, Pindao had warned him that his temperament would cause trouble sooner or later! "
To his right was an old Taoist wearing a white Bagua Taoist robe. Hearing this, he said angrily: "This is your fault, fellow Taoist Qianlu.
Since you know that he has a perverse temperament, why do you still make him the water god? "
A Taoist with a middle-aged face wearing a yellow robe on the left nodded in sympathy, "Fellow Qianlu Daoist really shouldn't make that eight-clawed demon a water god!
We have 800 water palaces under our command, 1,300 mountain temples, and more than 3,000 land temples...
If they were all like him, wouldn't they be extremely busy? "
Taoist Qianlu glanced at the two of them with a somewhat unhappy expression, "Well, it's useless for you two to complain now! 33
Now that His Holiness has spoken, let’s take a trip. "
"Your Majesty's instructions must not be neglected."
As the three Taoists spoke, they stood up, each set up auspicious clouds and floated away from the formation, flying towards Linhuan Pass.
Within a few hours, the three Taoists had arrived at the Huai River Water Mansion near Linhuan Pass.
At this time, the Huai River Water Mansion was in chaos, and all the shrimps, soldiers and crab generals had fled in all directions.
Taoist Qianlu used his magical powers and found a few water monsters who had escaped by following their breath, and soon learned everything from their mouths.
"A human race riding on Dangkang defeated the eight-clawed demon with a feather fan?"
"Is there a dragon boy helping secretly?"
The three Taoists looked at each other and saw doubts in each other's eyes.
"This place is not far from the South China Sea. Could it be that the South China Sea Dragon Clan wants to compete with us for territory?"
"Why do you care so much? If the Dragon Clan intervenes, someone will take action. Let's just seize the Water God Flag first, and then find a suitable candidate to succeed the Water God.
Well, we need to mobilize some more water monsters from nearby to help the new water god go to Linhuan Pass to establish his prestige, so that the human race people can start offering sacrifices again..."
"That's right. Let's just do our part."
"Well, the poor Taoist is going to find a candidate for the water god, and the two fellow Taoists will dispatch the water demon to come and help."
"When everything is ready, we will flood Linhuan Pass and make the noise louder, lest those mortals feel disrespected by this matter!"
Taoist Qianlu and the others have done similar things many times.
Under the guidance of His Holiness, they carefully managed and developed the territory, and have supported thousands of gods within a territory of millions of miles.
Everything is already familiar.
It only takes one day and one night.
The candidates for the new water god are ready, as well as the shrimp soldiers, crab generals, water fairies and monsters transferred from the surrounding waters.
"lets go."
Taoist Qianlu ordered calmly, "Let those mortals know the consequences of offending the gods!"
"No!" The new water god immediately accepted the order and went down.
He put on his armor, shouldered his sword, and led hundreds of water monsters, riding the waves toward the river bank.
Looking from a distance, the entire Huaishui River is boiling.
The wind was howling on the river and the waves were rolling.
Countless water fairies and monsters rolled up the waves and rushed towards Linhuan Pass under the command of the New River God.
Submerge everything!
The gods are not angry...
Mortals don’t know what is good or bad!
Some people died, but not completely...
