"What? Did the City God release the big locust?" On this day, Qiu Ping was settling water vapor in the fields, but he heard two wandering gods bringing unpleasant news.
This city god and the giant locust should not be related, right? Although there is a homophone in the name.
"There's nothing we can do. That big locust...the god of plague behind the locust god came to demand people and gave some compensation. We can't quarrel with each other. It's hard for the city god to do it." The wandering god with bulging eyes spread his hands, feeling helpless. said.
"Is he the messenger of the five plagues from heaven?"
Qiu Ping scratched his head. If you put it this way, is this big locust still from the Tianguan family?
"No, it's the God of Plague worshiped by the Xie family. The God of Plague and the God of Locust are both gods of the Fengchan Mountain family. We hardly interact with each other on weekdays. I don't know why the God of Locust escaped and caused some trouble. ." Big-eared Youshen shook his head, but lowered his voice a bit.
"What do you mean?"
Qiu Ping had heard of [Fengchan Mountain], and it was said that those who could live in it were all great gods who existed in ancient times, and the lowest level was third grade.
However, there are rumors that the relationship between [Fengchan Mountain] and King Minngling is not very good, and it can even be said that the two sides have deep conflicts.
When King Mingling came to Abi Hell to save people, it was because the great god of [Fengchan Mountain] was so angry that he refused to help, so he was very passive. If Qiu Ping's Huangquan Tower hadn't smashed the pagoda, I'm afraid they, the little gods, wouldn't have been able to leave the Netherworld alive.
"I can tell you, but you must not tell outsiders, otherwise we brothers will also be punished by the city god." The two wandering gods also just heard some news. They don't know whether it is true or false. How to tell.
"Brothers, don't worry. If one sentence comes out of my little brother's mouth, I ask you to come and ask me for help at any time." Qiu Ping slapped his chest loudly, almost swearing.
However, these two brothers are also famous for their big mouths. It is estimated that in a few days, all the gods in Changning County will know about this.
"I heard that the Xie family is a wealthy family in Qingzhou. There are over one hundred thousand Xie family members including servants, tenants, and private soldiers. They have hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland, thousands of shops, and various stone mines in the three counties of Anmu, Deling, and Zhishou. , salt mines, and gold mines are numerous.”
"Even if Zhou Mu wants to do something, he must have a good relationship with the Xie family."
Qiu Ping raised his ears high, and the more he listened, the more shocked he became. What is the concept of hundreds of thousands of acres of farmland? The cultivated farmland in Changning County is only tens of thousands of acres.
How can this family be so wealthy?
"In order to protect such a large business, the Xie family not only built strong forts, but also worshiped many gods. The land god helped them increase food production, the river god regulated the weather for their family, and the mountain god helped them breed birds and animals... It’s almost a replica of our Shinto in Changning County.” The bulging-eyed wandering god continued.
"It's just that their ideas are different from ours. They feel that they can't be too good at governing the people, and they need to bring disasters from time to time, so that the people can rely more on the gods, generate more incense, and be easier to control." Big Eryou God added.
"What kind of bullshit is this? People are not pigs and dogs, and humans are not human mines. They are not afraid of God's punishment for doing this? And... there is also this practice of raising gods, no one cares about it?" Qiu Ping said directly Swearing, these are simply evil ways.
"Shh, be silent." Big-eared Youshen pressed Qiu Ping's mouth to prevent him from complaining.
"The big family has been prosperous for hundreds of years, and there are not a few among them who have been granted the title of marquis or prime minister. Almost every generation has officials who have been granted the title of frontier official. After their death, these people were granted the title, and either went to various places to become city gods, or entered the underworld to be the judge of Yama, or even There are also those who are called into the heaven to become the Marshal and Heavenly King. When these forces unite, they are called [Fengchan Mountain]."
"Do you really think that [Fengchan Mountain] is in the same group as us gods?"
"To put it bluntly, if King Mingling hadn't vigorously promoted the reform, how could we poor ghosts and monsters be qualified to join the Shinto team." The wandering god with bulging eyes shook his head.
Qiu Ping's head was buzzing. The two wandering gods didn't know where they got the news, which suddenly subverted his understanding of the world.
He originally thought that the gods should work diligently to make the people safe and happy in exchange for some incense.
But listening to the narratives of the two wandering gods, gods like them are aliens?
"Brother Qiu Ping?" Big-eared Youshen shook Qiu Ping to wake him up, but Qiu Ping was still a little dazed and his brain was a little indigestive.
"Since the news has been brought, we brothers will say goodbye first. There is still something to do with the City God." The two wandering gods held up their lanterns and strolled away from the ancient well in Qiuping.
But Qiu Ping's ears were very sharp, and following the wind, he vaguely heard the voices of the two wandering gods talking to the land master next door:
"Lord of the Earth, I have something to tell you secretly. You must not tell anyone else..."
…
Knowing this secret, what impact will it have on Qiu Ping?
It doesn't have any impact at all.
He is just a little country god, and such intricate factional disputes have nothing to do with him.
At most, a seed was planted in his heart. Maybe one day he would become a great god and be qualified to participate in this game of power.
However, perhaps due to stimulation, his third [ancestral orifice] finally opened.
What was opened this time was his fish tentacles.
"Swish, swish, swish." The whiskers on Qiu Ping's lips grew dozens of times in an instant, and then began to dance unconsciously, like flying snakes.
With the flying of Xuzi, a large amount of information from all around was transmitted to his position.
Smell, temperature, size, and many scenes in his blind spot seemed to be reflected in his mind.
Of course, the clearest thing in my mind is all the creatures within the range of perception.
【Tongtian Spirit Searching Technique】
This is a perception-type supernatural power. Compared with divine soul perception, its range of perception is smaller, but it is also more accurate.
Many practitioners have reached a certain level and are able to hide the fluctuations of their own consciousness and the breath of life. But this magical power uses Qiu Ping's fish whiskers as a medium to capture the pheromones of life and is very sensitive to nearby creatures.
Its greatest function is still in combat. It can sense subtle changes when the enemy just makes a move, so that it has time to carry out targeted counterattacks.
Qiu Ping slowly closed his eyes, but in his thoughts, the surroundings suddenly became lively.
The movements and trajectories of every little loach in the well, and even the slightest beating of its muscles, were all transmitted to his brain.
It even made him feel in control.
Qiu Ping suddenly had an idea, so he quickly focused his feelings on himself, and then started swimming slowly in the water.
