Heavenly Stele Realm, Half-Mountain City.

Zheng Fa looked at the Heavenly Merit points in his God-Investiture Register.

Since God-Investiture Register turned golden and his Fief expanded four times, Heavenly Tribulation Lightning harvested more than a thousand Heavenly Merit.

Including the Heavenly Merit points left before, the Heavenly Merit points on his God-Investiture Register are now close to two thousand.

Zheng Fa is confident that except for Xiao Yuying and Heavenly Stele Realm, it is unlikely that anyone else will catch up with him.

But now he is also facing a problem - as the villains turn into ashes one by one, the Heavenly Merit points that can be obtained by Heavenly Tribulation Lightning are decreasing.

If you want to obtain a large number of Heavenly Merit points to exchange for spiritual materials, you may have to rely on Cloud-Rain Lightning and Spiritwood Lightning, or develop the population of Fief.

Spiritwood Lightning has no clue yet, but Cloud-Rain Lightning has already been researched in modern times.

Cloud-Moving Thunder, Rain-Making Thunder, and the three thunders to stop the rain each have their own difficulties.

Cloud-Moving Thunder and Rain-Making Thunder have extremely high requirements on the control ability of Thunder Method. Probably only <Divine Firmament Thunder-Commanding True Method> can really control the amount of rain to a millimeter.

But Rain-Stopping Thunder is different - this kind of Thunder Method relies on a high-energy laser, and its main purpose is to fly bricks with great force.

As long as he has enough spiritual power, he can return the world to a bright and clear sky!

Zheng Fa opened God-Investiture Register and looked at the tasks above - and found that after God-Investiture Register was upgraded to gold, this page also changed.

The task page on God-Investiture Register actually turned into a map, exactly the shape of his Fief.

He put his finger on it, and the Cloud-Rain Lightning electricity situation of this area in the next month appeared on it - just like a weather forecast.

It's just that I have to rely on my own hands to make the weather forecast...

This God-Investiture Register can still evolve - Zheng Fa now deeply suspects that this thing is mocking Gold Scroll for the fact that it is impossible for people under Gold Scroll to master Cloud-Rain Lightning.

Just as he was studying God-Investiture Register, Xiao Qing suddenly walked in.

She has eaten well in the past two months, has grown two inches taller, and has a plumper face.

She already looks like a slim girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.

She is much more beautiful than when Zheng Fa first saw her.

But she frowned at this moment, slowly walked to the statue of Zheng Fa, first knelt down on the futon and worshiped devoutly, and then asked softly, "Master Thunder God?"

"Is something wrong?"

Zheng Fa's voice sounded, Xiao Qing's face lit up, and he said, "Master Thunder God, I want to ask, when will the thunder in the river under the mountain stop?"

"Huh?"

Zheng Fa Divine Sense Scan and you will know what Xiao Qing is asking.

Half-Mountain City Going down, there is a river valley. The river is rich in fish and shrimps, so it can feed Half-Mountain City tens of thousands of people.

But in the past half month, there have been heavy rains in this valley, and thunder snakes are dancing wildly.

"Several people have been hacked to death, and people in the city no longer dare to go fishing." Xiao Qing said with a sad face, "We can only go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and dig bamboo shoots, but it is really not enough..."

After listening to Xiao Qing's words, Zheng Fa put his finger on the river valley and found that according to God-Investiture Register's arrangement, this place should have mostly sunny weather in the past half month.

Zheng Fa thought for a while and said to Xiao Qing:

"Tell everyone in the city to go fishing in the river valley in three days."

"Three days later?" Xiao Qing asked doubtfully, but Zheng Fa didn't explain anymore.

"Sister Hong, this is yours today, take it!"

Xiao Qing handed a small bag of mountain goods to a woman. Sister Hong took the bag, looked inside, nodded gratefully to Xiao Qing, and hurried back to the house.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard a cough.

"Bao'er mother, are you back?"

An older female voice came along with a cough.

The person who spoke to her was an old woman.

Although he is only thirty years old, he can indeed be regarded as an old character among Half-Mountain City.

The old woman was sitting in front of a simple loom, coughing and weaving.

"Mom, you are sick, why don't you take a good rest?"

"I will make clothes for Bao'er."

The old woman looked kindly into the house, and saw a one or two-year-old boy stumbling along the wall.

"I'll just do it."

Sister Hong put down the cloth pocket, took out a clay pot, added water, and poured all the wild stuff in the cloth pocket into it.

"No fish again today?"

The old woman was helping to light the fire. Seeing some mushrooms and the like, she couldn't help but ask.

"No, the thunder in the river is so strong that no one dares to go there. Mom, please bring the piece of dried fish hanging under the eaves. It will be ruined if it is left in this weather." Sister Hong thought for a while, "It's just for you, Mom, to replenish your health."

"At my age, what should I make up for? Give it to Bao'er!" The old woman tremblingly took the fish over, still muttering, "I told you I was going to the mountains, why are you looking for me?"

"Mother."

"You guard my son and raise Bao'er, and I will kowtow to you even when I die." The old woman was still chattering. "What do you think you are looking for me for?"

"Mom, Master Thunder God has said that the older ones should share more food with you. Bao'er and I can still enjoy your blessings while you are at home."

"Thunder God Master, just have some other things to do..."

Sister Hong looked at the clay pot and said softly, "After you left that day, I felt that the house was empty."

"..."

"Bao'er is also looking for his milk everywhere."

The old woman glanced at the boy and finally closed her mouth.

Sister Hong put the dried fish in a clay pot and cooked it together.

The piece of fish was not big, so she let her mother-in-law eat it, but she was reluctant to part with it, and finally gave it to her son Bao'er.

Bao'er seemed reluctant to eat first. A piece of fish was left untouched in the bowl.

Sister Hong also followed him. After eating, he sat in front of the loom and started weaving.

I was still thinking that Bao'er has grown a little taller and needs to wear more clothes. The clothes need to be bigger and can be worn longer.

She looked towards Bao'er and saw that he and his grandmother were gathering together, and her grandmother was removing fish bones for him.

Sister Hong smiled and looked away, feeling hungry in his belly.

If you don't dare to fish, there will be more people picking mountain products.

But there are only so many mountain products in the mountains, and after half a month, the amount that can be distributed is much less.

Bao'er needs to eat more to grow taller, and her mother-in-law needs to eat more to recuperate, so she can only eat two mouthfuls.

Suddenly, the sound of Bao'er's footsteps suddenly came to her ears. Before she could turn around, a piece of fish was stuffed into her mouth.

"Mother... mother, eat fish!"

Bao'er's childish voice sounded in my ears.

Sister Hong was stunned, turned around, and looked at Bao'er smiling stupidly at her, as if he had learned something, and said:

"Mother gives it to grandma, grandma gives it to Bao'er, Bao'er goes to mother."

Sister Hong slowly chewed the fish in his mouth.

The squeaking of the loom in front of her seemed to be smiling at her.

"I still have some materials at home. I finished it for Bao'er. I will also make a suit for Master Thunder God." Her mother-in-law suddenly said.

"Mother?"

"I don't know what size Master Thunder God wears." Her mother-in-law whispered.

Three days later.

Sister Hong is just getting ready to go out.

Her mother-in-law stood at the door and stopped her.

"Mother?"

"I'll go today." Her mother-in-law insisted, "It'll be fine if something happens to me. Bao'er can't lose my mother."

"Mom, your body..."

"It's okay!"

Her mother-in-law pushed her home.

Xiao Qing walked out of Temple.

Half-Mountain City There are more than ten thousand households, and at least one person from every household came out and stood in front of Temple.

They looked at Xiao Qing with different eyes.

There are doubts, disbelief, and apprehension.

"Xiao Qing, can you really go fishing?"

"What did Master Thunder God say?"

"Will we not be hacked?"

Sister Hong's mother-in-law stood in the crowd, feeling uncertain.

She knows what everyone is thinking. Thunderclap Sect even occupied the fishing area before.

Now this master Thunder God is much better than the leader Thunderclap Sect.

Not to mention not asking for their food, but giving them a bigger portion for these old immortals.

But...

Recently, lightning in the valley killed many people.

What's more, the little girl Xiao Qing said that Master Thunder God asked them to go fishing in the river valley - this is unheard of.

In their impression, the last god could eat people!

She glanced around and saw that she was surrounded by old people like her.

It seems that everyone is still a little scared.

"You said Master Thunder God asked us to go, did he want us to be sacrifices?" Beside her, she heard two people muttering, "Maybe Master Thunder God doesn't like to eat offerings, but also likes to eat people?"

"What are you afraid of? If it weren't for Master Thunder God, we would have died a long time ago." The people next to him were cheerful.

"Are you afraid that this master likes to be fatter?"

"..."

Sister Hong's mother-in-law was stunned and felt that there was some truth in it.

"Then I'm not afraid." Another Humanity's Dao said, "Just because I killed Thunderclap Sect's group of people and avenged my daughter, it's nothing like being a sacrifice."

"..."

Sister Hong Mother-in-law also laughed, and suddenly she was no longer afraid.

Xiao Qing nodded to everyone and said nothing, just walking in front with the fishing net.

She now had some prestige, and everyone saw that she was leading the way, so they naturally followed her down the mountain.

After walking for a while, we still didn't get close to the river valley.

The rumble of thunder reached everyone's ears.

After walking for another half mile, they saw a series of Heavenly Thunder hacking randomly by the river.

There were many fish floating on the river, as if they had been electrocuted.

Above the river valley, it was so dark that the clouds even reached as low as the mountainside.

Everyone couldn't help but stopped and looked at Xiao Qing.

Xiao Qing put down the fishing net, turned around, kowtowed three times to Temple, stood up again, raised his hands and said:

"Master Thunder God has given the order. Within three days, the clouds will subside and the rain will stop, and the wind will stop and the thunder will disperse."

As soon as the words fell.

A thick beam of light rose from Temple, illuminating the entire valley.

Sister Hong My mother-in-law felt her eyes brighten for a while, and when she could see again, the sky above the valley was actually clear.

The sun shines on the river, reflecting golden light.

Like everyone else, she stared blankly at Xiao Qing. She didn't know when she got up, but she knelt on the ground.

"You can fish with peace of mind within three days. This is the grace of Master Thunder God."

"Thank you Master Thunder God for your grace!"

The sparse sounds merged into a torrent and reached Half-Mountain City.

After waiting for a while, everyone stood up, looked at me, looked at you, and ran towards the river valley.

Sister Hong Mother-in-law was stunned, then secretly turned around and ran towards the mountain.

We have to let Bao'er mother come with us!

She ran towards the mountain panting, looking back at the golden river from time to time, and her eyes seemed to reflect the same light.
