"If you dare to laugh... I will... beat you up!"
At the edge of the Great Jungle Forest, Black Cloud finally jumped out of Helya's arms. The revived mist spirit looked embarrassed, landed lightly on the stone platform, and bared his teeth at Pomegranate who was trying to hold back a smile.
The little mountain monster waved his paw seriously.
But after a few breaths, it burst into laughter.
"Bad Black Cloud, you also have come to this day, hahahahahaha, this really makes me die of laughter."
"Meow!"
“Hey, hey, hey, don’t scratch my face! Don’t bite my head! I blamed you for being wrong. I’m not laughing anymore. Hahahaha, I’m not laughing anymore.”
"Alright, you two!"
Jiang Xia stepped forward and separated the two monsters who were fighting each other. These two guys grew up together. When Heiyun was injured, Shi Liu's nervousness could not be faked.
They are true friends.
When they met, they fought like real friends, but Boss Jiang still had important things to do. He glanced at Niangniang Yunshui who was following him with a game console in her hand .
He turned back and stroked his chin, then said to the black cat lying on the stone platform:
"Your brother Yun Xiaoliu should have told you about the agreement between us and your Lingquan Mist Spirit Clan just now, right? It just so happens that your mother is here too, so let's talk about this matter in detail.
Do you two think this will work?"
"no problem."
The great spirit, Lady Yunshui, got something interesting and saw her son revived, so she was in a very good mood and easy-going, so she replied in a carefree manner.
In fact, she had no idea about the agreement between Lao Jiang and the little mist elves.
Moreover, Goddess Yunshui has been sleeping soundly in Yandang Pond for many years, and the Lingquan Mist Spirit clan is basically managed by the "Prince" Heiyun.
The black mist spirit looked helplessly at his unreliable mother and sighed in a very human way.
A cat with such an expression is really cute.
This made Lao Jiang's girlish heart overflow. Like Helya, she reached out and held the black cloud kitten in her arms, stroking it while saying:
"You are in charge, you make the decision."
Heiyun thought for a few breaths, and under Lao Jiang's touch, he closed his eyes comfortably.
It says:
“Although we, the fog spirits, have strange and absurd personalities, we can still distinguish between gratitude and resentment.
You really saved us this time, which is a great favor. I want to repay you. The land near the spiritual spring can be reclaimed by you, and the fog elves are also willing to protect your tribe.
But regarding the matter of worshipping the great spirit, you have to talk to my mother about it."
"Nothing to say, I agree."
Lady Yunshui stared at the screen of the game console, and used smoke to create four hands. While pressing the buttons, she waved her hands and said:
"You monks saved my son, so I will naturally have something good to give you. Once your tribe is built in my southern wilderness, I will protect you."
At this point, Lady Yunshui put her hands on her hips and laughed, as if she had encountered a great thing.
She said proudly:
"Ever since those guys in Yandang Pond spread rumors about me, there has been no tribe in the entire Great Mang Forest offering sacrifices to me. Now it's all good.
This monster also has followers!
When the great festival of heaven and earth comes, your tribe must make it festive and magnificent.
Give me some face."
Hearing these familiar words, Heiyun in Jiang Xia's arms covered his face with his paws in despair. This big monster's mother was still as unreliable as before.
He has lived for more than five hundred years, but his temperament is still so casual. It's really a headache and frustrating.
“It’s natural.”
Jiang Xia didn't care at all. He bowed to Lady Yunshui and said:
"During the sacrifice next year, I will definitely ask the Fourth Brother and his men to make it a grand ceremony to show the majesty of the Empress! We will also build a beautiful temple for the Empress at Yandang Pond to make those gossipers envious."
"Well, that's it!"
Lady Yunshui, who had a very bad reputation throughout the Southern Wilds, had bright eyes. She stared at Jiang Xia and said:
"You are a very sensible monk. I like you very much!"
Jiang Xia smiled but said nothing.
Niangniang Yunshui is a famous troublemaker among the big monsters and often causes trouble in Yandang Pond.
It's normal that no one in the local area believes in her!
The tribes in the Damanglin are very smart. Just because of the "good reputation" of Lady Yunshui, if they dare to worship her today, they will probably be exterminated by other tribes tomorrow.
But Lao Jiang is not afraid.
All he wanted was the blessing from the spirits, to use this title to bring some fame to Kunlunfang, and by the way, to sell the number of people who were blessed during the annual sacrifice as commodities.
For low-level cultivators, the blessing of a great spirit in the realm of cultivation is still very valuable. Although it can only last for more than half a year, it is available every year and is also a good way to make money.
He was also afraid that this approach would cause dissatisfaction among traditional spirits.
But seeing that Lady Yunshui in front of her was uncomfortable unless she caused trouble, she definitely didn't care.
Is an excellent "partner".
Heiyun jumped away from Jiang Xia's arms and walked with cat steps to a group of chirping little mist elves nearby. The mist elves were very happy to see their big brother revived.
These little elves are really born optimists.
They had clearly just escaped from the torture of the evil cultivators and had just escaped from a fatal disaster, with their tribe suffering heavy casualties, but now they were playing and making noise again as before.
Don't they feel sad?
He is really born with a simple mind.
No wonder this Lady Yunshui has become a big monster, but is still so unreliable.
"My lady, I just heard you mention Lady Lishui, but I have never heard of this great spirit in the Southern Wilderness. Is she in trouble?"
Seeing that Lady Yunshui was already immersed in the fight with the wolf, Jiang Xia withdrew his gaze from the little mist spirit and asked calmly.
"Ah, Lishui, she died a long time ago."
Niangniang Yunshui stared at the screen, and four hands appeared, frantically pressing buttons and grabbing the joystick.
He answered carelessly:
“He died five hundred years ago.
At that time, I was just a little mist spirit hanging out in Yandang Pond. Don’t say you don’t know her. Now, among the spirits in Yandang Pond, few know her. "
"Then, Madam, you call Li Shui the Great Madam, does that mean she is very powerful?"
Lao Jiang asked again.
"sharp?"
Lady Yunshui snorted and said casually:
"Li Shui is so amazing that it's hard to describe her. She is an idol in my heart. She controls the flow of water and is majestic and powerful. I want to ask you, the cultivator.
It is said that we spirits are born and raised by nature, and are transformed by the principles of nature. We also follow the laws of heaven and earth. All the spirits in the world can be classified into the principles of the five elements.
Lady Asarum occupies the spiritual power of the wood element.
The two great gods Changshan and Jingmo are the earth and fire elements.
The metal of Geng and Xin is not compatible with the spiritual energy of our Southern Wilds, so . But everyone knows that there is water in the Southern Wilds...Aren't you curious why there are no water spirits in the Yandang Pond?"
Hearing this, Jiang Xia narrowed his eyes.
He said:
"According to what the empress said, this Lishui Lady is the former water fairy?"
"Um."
The fog spirit nodded vigorously, with an expression like someone telling gossip on his face, and then he transformed his cloud and fog body into a floating magic carpet, and transformed himself into a little girl with red lips and white teeth, who looked somewhat similar to Gu Miao.
She lowered her voice, as if telling a ghost story, and whispered mysteriously to Lao Jiang:
“Five hundred years ago, Lady Lishui was not only on par with the two great gods Changshan and Jingmo, but there is even a legend that she also had the spiritual charm to step into the realm of the Holy Spirit.
But unfortunately, along with the Empress Dowager, the two great gods, and your human cultivators, they went to the Western Continent to fight against the extraterritorial demons.
After this departure, there was no news from Li Shui again.
Very few spirits knew about this incident, and since then, there has been a taboo in Yandang Pond that no one can talk about it, so few people talk about it.
After all, more than five hundred years have passed.
If I had not received the blessing of the Lishui Lady when I was young, and had not seen the blood pact and witchcraft passed down by the Lady, and met the descendants of the last tribe that believed in the Lishui Lady today.
I wouldn't suddenly think of something like this from so long ago."
As the giant fairy was speaking, a big "lose" flashed on the game console in her hand, which made her immediately angry.
He said to Jiang Xia impatiently:
"Oh, you monk, please stop asking more questions. Look, I'm only answering your questions. You've distracted me and caused this tiger and leopard warrior to die again. How strange!
Look how powerful the little pomegranate is in fighting with it.
Why is this warrior so stupid in my hands? "
"Another Demon Slayer from the West Sea?"
Jiang Xia frowned immediately.
The Immortal Alliance was established at that time, the Mohist Immortal Sect was wiped out at that time, and the so-called alien invasion in the MAGA world also stopped at that time.
Now, we learned from Lady Yunshui that an immortal in the Southern Wilderness also died at that time, but this matter was kept secret by the officials of Yandangchi.
How many major events happened in that battle five hundred years ago?
Why does he feel like there's something else going on?
"If you are a novice fighting a wolf, don't choose this tiger and leopard warrior. It is too difficult to master. You can play this one first."
Jiang Xia rolled his eyes and put on the attitude of a senior master. He took the game console from the discouraged Yunshui Niangniang and selected a simple character for her.
Just like a teacher, he taught her how to play this exciting fighting game. While giving instructions, Jiang Xia asked:
"The Queen just said that the fat boy's mother's clan is the last clan in the Southern Wasteland that believes in the Lishui Queen. I was a little curious. How come there are still people who believe in the Lishui Queen who has been dead for more than 500 years?"
"Because Lishui is different from us."
Niangniang Yunshui stared at the screen, watching Jiang Xia controlling the character and performing cool operations. She was concentrating all her attention on watching, and then she casually said a few more words about the big monster's secrets.
Obviously.
This is a big monster who can't control his mouth.
“When Li Shui died, he was already in the realm of an immortal spirit, and his harmony with the great Dao of heaven and earth was so deep that it was far beyond the reach of an ordinary spirit like me. Even if he unfortunately died, his echoes would remain.
The human race is unaware of these secrets, so they continue to worship.
This is not an uncommon thing in the Southern Wilds, but the people of the Lishui clan are stubborn and have been worshipping for more than five hundred years without changing the person, which makes me very surprised. "
Jiang Xia nodded, returned the game console to Lady Yunshui, and said:
"The one that the fat boy's mother clan, the Lishui clan, has been worshipping is actually the remnant of the Lishui goddess?"
"Um."
The fog fairy shook her head and played with the new character. She said:
"You can say that, but the remnant sound cannot respond to the prayer. The Lishui clan was one of the most powerful tribes in the Great Wilderness, but now it has been completely wiped out."
Hearing this, Lao Jiang blinked his eyes, stood up, and walked towards the fat boy who was packing materials. When he got closer, he whispered to Qian Duo:
"I heard you say before that Ah Fu was a strange beast you found in the ruins of your mother clan?"
"Um."
The little fat boy looked up at the boss and said, without hiding anything:
"Afu was sealed there. It was said that my mother's ancestors sealed the beast there, but when I went to worship it as a child, they let it out out of fear."
"Is it really just an accident? I don't think so."
Old Jiang narrowed his eyes, lit a cigarette, looked around, winked at the fat man, and the two of them used the earth-moving disk to move to a cave dozens of miles away.
He said to the little fat boy:
"Call Ah Fu out. I have something to ask him."
Qianduo didn't understand.
But he still followed Jiang Xia's instructions and used the bone chain magic weapon to summon the blood-contracted spirit beast. As soon as Ah Fu appeared, his huge body covered the cave tightly.
"Quack~"
The big toad with the eyepatch croaked and stared at Jiang Xia with its one eye.
The gleam in his eyes was not friendly.
Jiang Xia reached out and took the cigarette off the corner of his mouth, exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked at Ah Fu, the big toad. After a few breaths, he asked:
"Afu, Liu Hui told me that a Sky Devouring Demon Toad like you is a natural earth-walking demon beast. The Myriad Beast Sect is very knowledgeable about this. They are professionals, and I am willing to believe them.
So, where did the alienated water spirit root in your body come from?
Also, is the Lishui Lady worshipped by the Lishui clan really dead?"
