Becoming a fox fairy from Liaozhai

Chapter 777 A Few Jokes
The priest did not recognize Gong Mengbi, and Gong Mengbi did not recognize the priest either.

But after one meeting, the impression of each other was pretty good.

Gong Mengbisheng has a good appearance and few people would hate him unless they have ill will towards him.

This priest had a kind round face. He was smiling even when he wasn't speaking and he was polite, so it was hard to dislike him.

Gong Mengbi asked, "Is the priest here for this rainmaker?"

The priest nodded and said, "Master, do you know the rainmaker? There are not many people who know the rainmaker nowadays."

"I've seen it several times in Qiantang Dragon Palace."

The priest was filled with awe and said, "Being able to enter and exit Qiantang Dragon Palace, it seems I have met a master."

Gong Mengbi introduced himself, saying, "My surname is Gong, my courtesy name is Mingfu, and I am a student of Tianhu Academy. I am considered a half-disciple of Qiantang Dragon Lord."

"So you are a top student of Tianhu Academy and the favorite disciple of Qiantang Dragon Lord. No wonder you can recognize Yu Gong."

“Aren’t rain workers common?”

"In ancient times, it was common among the gods of the wilderness. When the yin and yang were off, it was easy for such spirits to be born. Later, when the gods were in harmony with the yin and yang and there was no turmoil in the world, it was rare for such spirits to be born. Like this evil creature, if the yin and yang had not changed, and there were still branches left after combing the wind of the sky, it would be impossible for it to be born."

"I see. It seems that the rain workers we see now have all lived for many years."

"The rain workers I saw in Qiantang Dragon Palace are probably over a thousand years old, older than me."

Gong Mengbi then asked, "May I ask your name?"

"I dare not. I am Li Shanwen, the minor god of the Thunder Department. I was ordered by the Supreme God to lead the rain workers into the Thunder Court of Tianfu. I didn't want to be delayed by trivial matters on the way. I was a little late and almost let this evil beast cause a disaster."

Li Shanwen sighed, looked to the southeast, and said, "Fortunately, you intervened in time to save the life of this evil creature and save me from being punished."

Gong Mengbi got off the goat and handed the rope to Li Shanwen, saying, "The God has arrived. Even if I don't take action, the rainmaker can't kill anyone."

When Gong Mengbi made his move, Li Shanwen had already arrived. However, Gong Mengbi had already made his move, so Li Shanwen did not speak out to stop him, so as not to distract him.

Li Shanwen took the thunder rope, and the rope transformed from thunder was obedient and docile in his hands.

He led the rainmaker and looked towards the southeast, saying, "It turned out to be a little fox. Fortunately, it was not killed. You evil beast, why don't you spit out some essence!"

Li Shanwen patted Yu Gong on the head, and Yu Gong bleated, opened his mouth and spit out a stream of thunder essence, which turned into a green pill, floated in the void, and was caught by him.

"When yin and yang complement each other, good fortune will come into being." Li Shanwen held the elixir with a somewhat embarrassed look on his face. He looked at Gong Mengbi and said, "Master Gong, I am a deity, so it is not easy for me to interact with people. It is not right for Yu Gong to not compensate for the harm he caused. Can you help me pass this thunder pill to the little fox to settle the cause and effect for Yu Gong?"

Gong Mengbi took the thunder ball, his eyes narrowed and smiling.

"That little fox is my cousin. I want to thank Priest Li on her behalf."

Li Shanwen laughed loudly, mounted the rainmaker, stretched out his hand and patted the rainmaker on the back. The goat then turned into a thunderous beast, made a thundering sound, and flew towards the sky.

"Fellow Daoist Gong, I have heard of your great name for a long time. We hope to meet again someday."

Gong Mengbi watched the lightning of the thunder spirit disappear in the sky, smiled and shook his head.

With the birth of the thunder spirit, the rain clouds caused by the violent storm finally calmed down gradually. I believe that after the rain continues for a while, the wind will calm down again.

The five ghosts rose up on the boat and turned into flowing light. As they left, the boat became smaller and smaller, and finally turned into a leaf, spinning and drifting with the water.

"My lord, who is that?"

"It was the Thunder God, who came to subdue the rainmaker. He probably recognized me and played a few jokes on me."

"My lord, your reputation is well-known. Last time, it was the Wind God who came to ask for help from the heavens. This time, the Thunder God came to make acquaintance with you. This shows that you are a man of high moral character and are favored by heaven."

"Slippery."

Gong Mengbi turned and headed southeast, saying, "Let's go. The rainmaker was upset and thunder struck in the southeast. Let's go take a look."

Speaking of the Rain Worker, the Five Ghosts were extremely amazed and said, "The spirits born from thunder are born with great magical powers. It is really amazing and enviable."

"Why envy? Fortune and misfortune are linked together. Born from thunder, you are born with supernatural powers, but aren't you also imprisoned by thunder? If you practice well, you will have a better future than the rain workers."

They had never seen a rainmaker, but Gong Mengbi had seen many. The Qiantang Water Palace had more than 800 rainmakers, and the Taihu Water Palace had more than 300. Although they enjoyed a sacred position, they were far from being born sacred.

On the contrary, Wu Gui, after practicing with Gong Mengbi, has a future that far exceeds that of Yu Gong.

The six people fell into the southeast valley and saw a long line of villages in the distance, including a house with smoke coming out of it.

The family was quite wealthy, with a large house with three entrances and three exits. The owner and servants all escaped outside to avoid the fire. Fortunately, the fire was not big, only the beams were ignited by lightning, and it was extinguished after being washed by rain.

An old lady dressed in rich clothes was frightened and was supported by two maids, who kept stroking her back to help her calm down.

Another middle-aged man comforted her and said, "Mother, it's okay now. The fire is out."

The old lady shouted: "Where is Cuiyun? Cuiyun is still in the room!"

"Hurry up and go in and look for it!" The old lady was so anxious that she was jumping up and down. The middle-aged man was also very anxious, and the group rushed into the house to look for it.

"Cuiyun, Cuiyun, where are you?" the old woman called.

"Mother, I'm here!"

The old woman followed the sound and found that it came from the house that was on fire and still smoking.

"Cuiyun, how are you?"

The old lady hurried over, and the two maids pushed open the door and called out, "Madam, please come out quickly. The room is on fire and it's not safe."

"what!"

The two maids screamed and stepped back in fear, shouting, "Monster!"

"What a monster!"

Upon hearing the news, everyone came and surrounded the house.

The two maids were so frightened that tears streamed down their cheeks. They said, "Madam! Madam is a monster!"

The old lady suddenly felt dizzy, and the middle-aged man turned pale with fright.

The old lady managed to calm herself down and said, "Nonsense! How could the lady be a monster!"

"I'll go take a look!"

"Mom!" The man grabbed the old lady's hand, fear showing on his face, and shook his head, refusing to go.

"That's the wife you married!" the old lady's voice became stern.

She shook off her son's hand, her heart pounding, and walked slowly to the door. She gathered herself and said, "Cuiyun, mother came to see you."

When she walked into the room, she saw a pale and beautiful woman leaning against the bed, her body covered in blood and her eyes full of pleading.

The old lady stood there frozen, because behind the woman, a long, hairy, bloody tail was shaking and could not be retracted.
