"What the hell is going on?"

On the small platform, Xiang Fangsu fell into self-doubt.

At first, when it rained while the sky was clear, he thought it was some kind of celestial coincidence.

Afterwards, the Auspicious Tortoise and Crane, which he believed was deliberately arranged by Liang Qu.

Finally, the four snakes offered a gift.

This, this...

That's not right! Da Shun and Eastern Snake aren't exactly enemies, but they're definitely not good; they often have minor skirmishes.

Based on this, Liang Qu and Eastern Snake, if not exactly helping each other, are at least sworn enemies.

The troublesome Snake Demon in Fragrant Township County was killed by the White Ape he sent!

They really have to put on an act.

Arranging four Big Frog would be more reasonable than arranging four giant snakes!

Xiang Fangsu was completely dumbfounded.

Liang Qu's mind was itching, and the joy of receiving two points of favor vanished.

As the Chief Priest, he was even more bewildered than Xiang Fangsu. When the Snake Demon appeared, he would have wanted to abandon the Sacrificial Text and run away if he hadn't been able to see them clearly.

There must be something fishy about this.

The two priests and Chief Priest on the altar were completely dumbfounded, while the 100,000 villagers below were in a frenzy!

Sweet dew fell from the sky.

Auspicious Tortoise and Crane!

A hundred-foot-long serpent offered its gift! Such a large serpent could easily be called a dragon! Heavens! The Old Sacrificer was in tears, his nose and eyes a tangled mess.

Having heard early on that the River God was the Dragon Lord, could it be that the River God Sacrifice in Yixing Yi Xing Town- organized, and that the sincerity of the heart had attracted the River God's attention and earned a response? In the Jiang Huai Great Marsh, the Red Scale Great Snake, leading the other three serpents, approached.

Xiang Fangsu's muscles were tense, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The four-headed Snake Demon was equivalent to four Great Martial Master, and its oppressive aura was terrifying! At this moment, he was no different from the villagers who had seen the Great Monster Spirit before.

Liang Qu was just as nervous, but his mindset was slightly better.

He couldn't defeat the four Snake Demon even when he transformed into White Ape, but his home was just a mile away, and there were people there who could fight him!

Su Guishan faked his death to hide himself and not make a move easily, but the Old Monk should be able to handle it alone.

Early in the morning, Liang Qu used Mental Link to send Ta Ta Kai to fetch reinforcements, while the Old Monk might be hiding somewhere, observing the situation.

Sensing the tension between the two, the Red Scale Great Snake slowed its approach, demonstrating its sincerity.

Upon reaching the shore, the Red Scale Great Snake lowered its head, spread its will, and slowly opened its mouth.

"The people of Yixing..."

At the very beginning, the 100,000 villagers of Yi Xing Town stared wide-eyed.

It can talk! The snake can talk!

Could it be...?

The Old Sacrificer trembled with excitement, large beads of sweat trickling down his temples, yet he felt no fatigue despite being exposed to the scorching sun.

The Red Scale Great Snake observed the expressions of the crowd with great satisfaction and continued talking incessantly.

"The people of Yixing revered the River God, and their sincerity moved Heaven and Earth. Now the God has sent a messenger with gifts to present to the Chief Priest, to demonstrate your sincerity!"

After speaking...

The Old Sacrificer nearly fainted, his body stiffening and trembling.

Fortunately, Chen Zhaoan noticed something was wrong, grabbed the mung bean soup from the table, pinched his philtrum, and forced it down his throat.

The Old Sacrificer was startled awake by the cold, but the mung bean soup made him cough violently.

This was a breach of etiquette and a great disrespect, but he couldn't control himself at all, and his face turned bright red.

Once they had recovered, the Red Scale Great Snake had already lowered its head, offered the Treasure Lotus, and turned to lead the other serpents away.

The Blue-Scale Great Snake in the group seemed a little anxious and tried to say something, but was glared at by the Red Scale Great Snake and silently lowered its head.

The snakes disappeared into the horizon, the giant tortoise and the Red-crowned Crane parted ways one after another, leaving only that one figure with a somewhat flustered look...

Liang Qu and Xiang Fangsu were completely stunned.

no.

What? Just say something, deliver the gift, and leave?

The two were already confused, and seeing this situation, their minds went completely blank.

I have absolutely no idea what those big snakes are up to.

"Vajra Strength Pill? "Xiang Fangsu asked quietly, "What's going on? When did you get involved with Eastern Snake?"

"I don't know..."

Liang Qu's brows furrowed into a V-shape.

Underwater.

The Azure Viper turned back three times during its journey, which was unbelievable.

"We were supposed to bribe the officials to find out where the White Ape was, so... why did they leave?"

Scarlet Scale said calmly, "No rush."

"Not in a hurry? How can we not be in a hurry? We've been waiting for almost two months to find that damned White Ape!" Azure Viper roared in anger.

Scarlet Scale glanced at Azure Viper.

"I've said it before, the human race values propriety, righteousness, integrity, and a sense of shame. Bribery and betrayal are possible in private, but absolutely not in public! Non-Self offer him a price that would make him betray his own race! Is it possible with just three Treasure Plant?"

"If you can't ask him in person, why give him the Treasure Plant in the first place?!"

The other two giant snakes shook their heads and sighed, which only fueled the Azure Viper's anger.

"Because we want to spread goodwill!"

Scarlet Scale was relentless. If Azure Viper hadn't been Water Demon with considerable strength, it would have killed any other Great Monster Spirit long ago.

"The Liang family's Water Lord ordered the White Ape to kill the Green Viper, knowing he has a grudge against the Snake Clan. How difficult would it be for us to talk to him face-to-face and find the White Ape's whereabouts? Do you think he would believe you so easily?"

Azure Viper was stunned.

The Yellow Scale Great Snake replied, "At the River God Sacrifice, the other party will be the Chief Priest and will inevitably show up; this is the opportune moment."

The River God Sacrifice is held on the riverbank, making it easy for us to approach; this is an advantage of the terrain.

The four snakes joined forces to offer the Treasure Plant, but did not attack it. The predicament that the other party avoided them due to the weak foundation of trust, and that their goodwill could not be received, was thus resolved on its own!

Once we've proven we have no malicious intent, and there's a basis for trust, it will be much easier to talk to him afterwards!

The Azure Viper's tail scratches my head, it feels so itchy.

Scarlet Scale added, "We have an extra benefit from this trip: not only have we given away three Treasure Plant, but we have also given the Liang family's water lord prestige and status!"

The Yellow Scale and Orange Scale snakes were stunned.

They understand that goodwill is being shown, so what's the point of discussing titles? Yellow Scale bowed respectfully. "Brother Scarlet Scale, please speak."

Scarlet Scale was very pleased.

"In the past, the Dragon Lord was the River God. Now that Lord Flood Dragon has succeeded him, isn't he also River God?"

Therefore, the River God worship in Yi Xing Town is essentially a sacrifice to Lord Jiao! Thus, the previous statement about the divine messenger is entirely correct! We have come on behalf of the River God! All that's needed is for that Liang-surnamed water boy to reveal the location of the White Ape; from then on, he will be truly recognized by the River God!

Yellow Scale and Orange Scale were completely convinced.

Shang Rao Wharf.

The rain had stopped sometime earlier, and there wasn't a trace of water on the ground.

There was no heavy rain in Liang Qu, but many children on the shore were easily susceptible to catching a cold from getting wet.

He stepped down from the altar, which was half a meter high, and looked around.

The people's eyes were filled with awe, fervor, and joy.

Sweet dew falls from the sky, Auspicious Tortoise and Crane, and a giant snake offers gifts.

This is way better than last year's white mist! Yi Xing Town is truly blessed and protected by the River God! Since when did this begin?

That was the time when Liang Qu rose to prominence!

Last year, and this year, it's all the same!

Today, Liang Qu is seen by the people of Yi Xing Town and other villages as nothing less than a celestial being descended to Celestial Person! If you said it was the offspring of the River God on earth, some people would definitely believe it!

"No wonder you were favored by both points at once..."

Although Liang Qu didn't know what the group of giant snakes were planning, the results were quite good.

The Favorability is linked to the sacrifice, and is mostly related to the scale of the sacrifice and the piety of the participants.

When several large snakes appeared, the villagers' piety was not just off the charts, it was completely overdrawn!

Xiang Fangsu walked behind Liang Qu, frowning in thought. Halfway there, she realized that her priestly duties were not yet finished.

"Fire!"

Firecrackers crackled and popped.

The sound of gongs and drums filled the air.

Xiang Fangsu quickly caught up. "A Shui, do you have any ideas?"

"You stay and help with the Distributing Blessings." Liang Qu pondered for a moment, "I'll go home first and ask my superior."

"Ask your superior, why aren't you going to the Prefectural Office? What are you doing at home?"

"There's a big one at home!"

Liang Qu ran off quickly, leaving Xiang Fangsu standing there, completely bewildered by a group of villagers who were constantly glancing at the sacrificial offerings and swallowing their saliva.

Is Big Brother Xu staying at A Shui's house?

"Alright, alright, let's distribute the meat! Line up, line up! Village Elder, where are the village Village Elder? Keep order!"
