The person closest to the door opened the hatch first and left, coming to the deck to look out.
I found that the originally calm waveless lake was now experiencing rough waves, with wave after wave hitting the boat in the lake.
Other ships in the surrounding area were rocking in the big waves.
Fortunately, the boat they were in was large enough and did not capsize directly.
Lou Fucheng, who was holding the side of the boat with one hand, looked at the scene in the lake with surprise and uncertainty in his heart, not knowing what was going on.
Yuan Chixin also came out under the protection of Yuan Zhong, and the "Dianmao man" who was pretending to be an actor was a little confused.
In all his years as a killer, this is the first time he has encountered this situation.
The key is that the patron hasn't given a signal to take action yet, which makes him very confused.
Some helpless Dianmao people also came out.
Yuan Chi saw in his heart that the waves on the lake seemed to be getting bigger and bigger, and said with some concern:
"If this continues, the surrounding ships may be in danger of capsizing."
Ye Ming said: "Then let the waves stop."
Yuan Chixin nodded and took out the official seal from his sleeve.
It turns out that the space inside his sleeves was specially enlarged to hide the official seal.
Holding the official seal in his hand, he said to Wubo Lake:
"If there is no wave, there will be no wave."
As for this language, there is no change in the official seal.
Only extraordinary people can see that a ray of light shines out of the official seal and falls on the river.
The originally turbulent river water immediately calmed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The river calmed down, but before everyone could feel at ease, they heard the sound of water breaking again, and a huge ray rushed out of the water.
This ray was five feet in size. After emerging from the water, it floated in mid-air. Its eyes, which were larger than a lantern, emitted a faint green light and stared down at the boat where everyone was sitting.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the monster, everyone was shocked, including Lou Fucheng, and they all hid behind.
Some of the timid ones had already hid in the cabin, shivering and terrified.
Yuan Chixin did not retreat, he held the official seal in his hand and looked at the ray monster.
Seeing that Yuan Chi was not afraid of him, the ray monster made a sound like thunder:
"Bold human race, I am the ray god general under the mullet throne. Why don't you worship me when you see me?"
"God General? King Mullet is just a pet in a pond. How dare you call yourself a God General?"
Yuan Chi was not used to this stingray monster and criticized him unceremoniously.
"The bold human race really doesn't know how to live or die!"
The ray monster swings its "false wings", and the river water is immediately fanned. A wave of nearly ten feet rises in place, and it comes towards the building ship, hoping to directly smash the building ship.
Seeing this, Yuan Zhixin also felt a little nervous, and said to the official seal in his hand:
"A small fish in the water must not make waves."
As soon as these words came out, a brilliance invisible to ordinary people was released from the official seal, hitting the waves.
The power of the wave was immediately eliminated and it fell back into the lake without making any waves.
Seeing this, the ray monster seemed a little angry, and opened its mouth to spit out sand and splash it down.
Yuan Zhixin blocked it again with his official seal.
In this way, the manta ray monster made several moves in succession, but none of them worked.
Seeing this, Yuan Zhixin, who was holding the official seal, felt much more confident than before.
Thinking of trying to take the initiative, he said to Guanyin:
"You little devil, if you offend your superior, you will be punished!"
A majestic figure in the official uniform of the prefect immediately walked out of the official seal. This figure pointed at the manta ray monster, and there was a heavy pressure of official power coming down.
The ray monster felt that his whole body was suppressed, and he couldn't help but want to drop to the water and kowtow to the person in front of him.
Realizing that this was the power of the official seal, he immediately cast a spell to counter it.
Yuan Chi saw in his heart that the stingray monster was trembling and still able to resist, so he shouted again:
"Those who resist the law will be punished with an additional penalty!"
The official's shadow turned his fingers into palms and pressed against the ray monster.
Under the sudden increase in pressure, the ray monster groaned a few times in discomfort.
Seeing that Yuan Zhixin wanted to work harder, knowing that it was difficult to resist, he opened his mouth and spit out a piece of colorful lotus petals.
As soon as the petals came out, they immediately emitted the radiant Buddha light.
The pressure caused by the official's shadow was all blocked by this Buddha's light.
Everyone can't see the invisible power of the official seal, but they can see the dazzling Buddha's light.
After being illuminated, many people feel their minds become calm and their distracting thoughts disappear.
What's more, it directly gives rise to the desire to take refuge in Buddhism.
Seeing the lotus petals, Yuan Zhixin also frowned.
The ray monster said proudly:
"These are the petals of the lotus in Guanyin's lotus pond. They have profound Buddhist charm and are merely official seals, but useless."
Seeing this, Ye Ming smiled and said:
"You are guilty of stealing lotus flowers. Aren't you afraid of being punished by the master in the future?"
"Hmph, the great master is the most generous and kind, how can he be angry over such a trivial matter?"
The ray monster said, its "false wings" slowly flapped, and said to Yuan Chi:
"Human race, I am here under the order of the king. I have something to inform you and others."
"King Wuyu asked you to take the message?"
"Exactly."
"What did he want to say?"
"Our king has said that within half a month, you will demolish the 'Mozu Empress' temple and the Chenghuang Temple, build a temple for my king, offer incense, and praise the honorable name of my king.
In addition, prepare seven hundred boys and girls to offer as sacrifices.
In this way, Pingbo Mansion can be guaranteed to have smooth weather and no disasters for twenty years. "
The ray monster's words were not shy at all, and his voice was loud.
Not only were the people on the boats on the lake heard it, but everyone on the shore could also hear it clearly.
These words immediately caused everyone to explode. A group of people were furious. No one agreed, and they all shouted "disagree".
The manta ray monster, who was originally looking proud and somewhat aggressive, suddenly looked a little ugly when he saw this.
Unexpectedly, in his opinion, cowardly mortals would object like this without even thinking about it, which made him feel very embarrassed.
In fact, it is normal to have this reaction. He should never, never, should not bring up the matter of demolishing the "Mozu Empress" temple.
You must know that not only in Pingbo Prefecture, but also in all coastal areas in the south, "Empress Mozu" has been the first object of worship for thousands of years.
For many people, this god is not only a god they talk about every day, but also a belief in their hearts.
Yes, everyone is indeed afraid of the Mullet King, but they will never do anything to harm "Mozu Empress" just because of fear.
On the contrary, everyone has no feelings about the Chenghuang Temple.
It can even be said that even if the Chenghuang Temple is demolished for three to five days, no one may find it.
This is also the reason why the City God of Pingbo Prefecture has almost no sense of existence.
Their situation is even worse than the so-called "county magistrate attached to Guo" in the officialdom.
The manta ray monster did not expect that the conditions proposed by the king not only did not make these people waver, but also inspired their spirit of resistance. He felt that he had shot himself in the foot.
Then, he looked at Yuan Chixin.
In any case, the opinions of the people are not decisive. I think if Yuan Chi can be convinced, the goal can still be achieved.
"Prefect Yuan, even if you are not afraid of the anger of my king, you still have to think about the people in this city.
Once the king gets angry and floods Pingbo Mansion, how many people will die?
Too many to count!
The people don't know the pros and cons, you should be able to understand.
As a local parent, you have to think about them, right? "
Regarding the words of the ray monster, Yuan Chixin directly interrupted:
"It is indeed a matter of life and death for everyone at this time, but I wonder if you have ever heard a sentence?"
"What words?"
"If the people are not afraid of death, why should they be afraid of death!"
Yuan Chixin's words were so loud that they were heard far away and echoed on the lake. It was like a silent thunder.
When the strange ray heard this, he scratched his head with his "false wings" in confusion, hesitated and said:
"Isn't it inappropriate for me to say at this time that I really haven't heard of it?"
As soon as these words came out, the scene was a little silent for a while.
Even Yuan Chixin was stunned, only Ye Mingle couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
After being stunned for a while, Yuan Chixin waved his hand:
"That's all, forget it if you haven't heard of it, I don't blame you.
In short, you go back and tell King Wuyu that the people of Pingbo Mansion will not agree to his conditions! "
What he said was very clear. The manta ray monster heard it clearly and said with a gloomy face:
"Have you really thought about the consequences? To tell you the truth, now that the king has broken his shackles, you don't have to worry about anything anymore. If you insist on seeking death, then just wait for the disaster to come!"
"You monster, don't talk anymore. I have already said that we cannot agree to the conditions of the Mullet King!"
Seeing that Yuan Chi was so determined, the manta ray monster looked a little displeased, but he didn't take action again.
This lotus charm not only restricts the opponent, but also restricts oneself from harming lives at will. It is a double-edged sword.
He opened his mouth and sucked in, swallowed the petals back into his belly, and planned to fall into the lake and return to life.
At this time, Lou Fucheng on the boat was a little anxious.
Once the other party leaves, the next time he comes back will be half a month later.
He didn't know whether Pingbo Mansion would be flooded by then, but there was still Yuan Chixin to pass before him!
Immediately he hurried to the side of the boat and shouted:
"God's envoy, God's envoy stays!"
The mullet king didn't seem to hear it and was about to enter the water.
When Lou Fucheng saw this, he shouted repeatedly.
Hearing his shout, the ray monster looked over and said:
"Are you calling me?"
"Of course I asked God to envoy you!"
"I am a monster, not an angel."
"Aren't you the Ray God General conferred by the Mullet King?"
"Oh, yes, I am a divine general granted by the king, so naturally I am a divine envoy.
Uh-huh, what do you want from this divine envoy? "
The ray monster said, trying to straighten his body to make himself look more energetic, in line with his status as a divine envoy.
Seeing this unreliable performance, Lou Fucheng's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly regretted stopping him.
But now that the words have been spoken, there is no way out but to continue.
"God's envoy, here is Lou Heng, the head of the Lou family in Xia Pingbo Prefecture. There are also four heads of three merchants and other heads of the family here."
When the others heard this, they immediately understood what Lou Fucheng meant and hurriedly stepped forward to introduce themselves.
In the crowd, the head of the Yan family looked around and was silent for a moment. He did not step forward to announce his home, but retreated to the back to keep a little distance from everyone.
When the ray monster saw everyone announcing their homes, he acted like he was listening attentively, a bit like a divine envoy.
After listening, I couldn’t help but scratch my head with my “fake wings”:
"You, um, what's wrong with you?"
"To be honest, we are also on the side of the king, and we still have a statue of the king at home!"
Lou Fucheng was afraid that the other party would be impatient, so he finished speaking in one breath,
"This time I just want to ask, does your Majesty have anything to tell us to do?"
"Oh~~~ It's you. I remember the king mentioned you."
The ray monster looked like he was remembering something.
When Lou Fu Cheng heard this, his face showed joy:
"What did the king say?"
Hearing Lou Fucheng's question, the ray monster made a reminiscence gesture, thought about it, and suddenly imitated another person's tone and said in a loud voice:
"'A group of wishful thinking, self-righteous, smart-alecked stinky fish and rotten shrimps, sooner or later they will all be killed and mixed with sauce!'
Hmm~~Yes, that’s what the king said at that time. "
Lou Fucheng:......
Everyone:......
These words made the faces of the four families and three businessmen turn pale, as if they were mourning for their heirs, and many of them had despairing looks on their faces.
Even Yuan Chixin, who had always been calm, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
Sure enough, Mr. Shanyuan was not lying when he said there was a good show going on!
Lou Fu Cheng's face twitched continuously, but he still refused to give up and continued to ask:
"Is there anything your Majesty needs us to do now?"
"Before I came, the king didn't tell me, so he probably didn't think of you.
It's okay, you will definitely be able to see the king when the water floods Pingbo Mansion. Wouldn't it be nice to ask him in person at that time? "
After the ray monster finished speaking, he felt a little tired from carrying the air of a divine envoy. He shook his body, said "I'll go," and plunged into the lake and disappeared.
