Chapter 26 The Taoist Praying for Rain

"Give me the money, hurry up, give me the money..." a stubble-faced man roared ferociously, holding a knife in his hand. The man's eyes were dull, his lower eyelids were blue and purple, and his body was emaciated. , he took a kitchen knife and made a few random gestures in the air, intending to push back the woman who was approaching.

"Brother, put down the knife, put down..." the woman begged, she had a big belly, she looked seven or eight months old, and unlike the usual rosy pregnant women, her face looked haggard.

The man's mind was insane, he kept restless, "Give me, give me, give me quickly, or I will kill you, oh, no, I will commit suicide!" As the man pointed the kitchen knife at his neck, he Shouting: "Stinky bitch, will you give it or not, or I will cut myself off!!"

"No, big brother, I can't give it to you, don't do this... woo, don't do this..." The woman begged, she protected her belly, her thin body seemed to be unable to support her round belly, her body leaned forward, it was very painful .

"Swallow, don't give it to him, he doesn't have the guts to commit suicide now, you go out quickly, I'll deal with it here!" A burly man broke into the door, he anxiously pulled the woman over, trying to keep her behind.

The woman's face was full of tears, "Xun, this is my brother, this is my brother..."

The man named "Xun" frowned, and said sharply: "Yanzi, he takes drugs. There is no cure for drug users. He is not your big brother at all!"

The woman shook her head desperately, and argued, "It's not like that, it's not like that."

Hearing such words, the man on the opposite side went crazy, "Young boy, instigate my sister, you bitch, see if I dare!"

As he spoke, the man swung the kitchen knife and chopped off at his own neck...

"Don't!!!" the woman screamed.

"The heavens and the earth are natural, and the filth is scattered! Urgent-urgent-like-law-order-" But there was a thunder on the ground, and a ball of light appeared out of thin air, hitting the handle of the knife that was intended to be swung, and the ball of light disappeared in the In the palm of the man's right hand, the maniac man calmed down instantly, groggy, and fell to the ground in an instant.

Both the man named "Xun" and the pregnant woman he was protecting were frightened by the sudden change in front of them. They couldn't help but look in the direction where the ball of light flew. There was an old Taoist priest holding a dust whisk in his hand, with a flowing navy blue Taoist robe and a long beard that moved with the wind, just like an old fairy in mythology.

The woman's eyes lit up, her face was full of surprise, she seemed to see a savior, she rushed out the door regardless of her big belly, "Daoist Qingxuan, please save my elder brother..."

At the same time, on a wasteland ten miles away, Zuo Mu, who was wearing cloud boots, wearing a Taoist robe, and holding a mahogany sword to open the altar, couldn't help but sneezed.

Rubbing his nose, Zuo Mu looked at the sky suspiciously, wondering, who is thinking about me?

In the past few years, there has been little rain in the East China Plain. The rivers in the Qilu land have dried up, and the land has been caked. It has already entered winter, and the weather is dry and cold, but there has not been a single snowfall.

This is God's punishment, punishing human beings for cutting down trees and killing wild animals unscrupulously. The corpses are everywhere, all things mourn, and the sky is wrathful. Therefore, in recent years, there have been many disasters in various places. Zuo Mu knew that he could not stop this, but what do innocent people have to do? What's wrong?

So during this period of time, Zuo Mu traveled frequently to various cities to open altars to pray for rain. At the beginning, Zuo Mu was alone, and the restaurant handed over snacks and orange dumplings. After completing the spell, he summoned paper figurines to replace him. The business of the restaurant was fine. Someone cooked the noodles for the guests, but who would cook the meals for the three of them. After Zuo Mu left, they had been eating noodles all the time at first. After eating to the point where I was about to vomit, no matter how delicious the noodles were, I couldn't eat them every day. What's more, the three of them, one big, two small, had always been carnivorous.

The three of them began to sweep through Lotus Lane, eating crazy roasted wings today, McDonald's tomorrow, Chongqing Chicken Burger the day after tomorrow, and Chen Ji's home-cooked dishes... At first, the three of them ate very happily, but as time went on, the more they ate, the worse they became. taste.

They didn't feel it when Zuo Mu was there. There are so many restaurants in Lotus Lane, which one can't eat, but after a long time, they feel that the taste is not right. What level is Zuo Mu? It has reached the pinnacle level, although the food cooked by other restaurants is not bad, but when compared with Zuo Mu's cooking skills, they immediately distinguish themselves. Eat it every day.

Thinking about Zuo Mu and wanting to eat meat, the three of them made a plan and simply posted an announcement outside the noodle shop, saying that the family was traveling far away, Xiao Shi asked Cheng Zi for a good leave, and followed Zuo Mu's taste along the way.

When Zuo Mu finished the practice and was about to find a corner to meditate and rest, a large group, two young people and three people appeared in front of him, even though Zuo Mu was as calm as he was, he was also stunned.

"Brother Zuo Mu—" Jiaozi said timidly in a soft voice.

Cheng Zi was more direct, pounced on him, hugged Zuo Mu's thigh and said, "Brother Mu, I want to eat meat."

Zuo Mu raised his head, looked at Xiao Shi who was embarrassed not far away, and said, "What's going on?"

Xiao Shi coughed twice, and said, "These two brats miss you very much, cough cough, that, that, I will bring them to you..."

"What about you?" Zuo Mu asked with a smile.

The kid snickered.

Xiaoshi coughed twice, pretended to be calm, copied two pockets, looked at the sky, and said with erratic eyes: "That's it, that's it."

In this way, the four of them got together again, because there were three more snacks, and Zuo Mu could no longer be fooled by the accommodation, so he changed his strategy and intentionally opened an altar to pray for rain in a nearby village where there were people. It’s very convenient to stay in the farm for one night. Zuo Mu went directly to the local farm to buy ready-made chickens and ducks for them to eat. Although the accommodation conditions were not very good and there was no way to access the Internet, he was very satisfied with the oranges and dumplings. Follow Mu Ge to have meat!

The white, blue, black, red, and yellow flags represent the five elements, and they are inserted in the five directions of the west, east, south, and center respectively, forming a five-element array. Zuo Mu's altar for praying for rain is behind the yellow flag, and he waves it towards the cloudless sunny day. Wooden sword, five blank talisman papers on the altar slowly rose into the air, Zuo Mu picked up the Langhao pen on the table, dipped it in cinnabar and began to draw talismans on the talisman paper, as Zuo Mu threw away the Langhao brush, the five The talisman paper soared into the sky, "Five emperors and five dragons, descending light and traveling wind, widely spreading moist, assisting Lei Gong. All over the world, water is the most court. The talisman orders you, and Chang Chuan obeys. Those who dare to violate, Lei Axe will not tolerate.

Urgent-urgent-ru-law-order-"

Following the incantation, strong winds blew, dark clouds covered, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Thunder God and Lightning Mother, the Second Envoy of Fengyun, and the Dragon King of the East China Sea came out in response to the five emperors' orders. It was Zuo Mu who opened the altar to call for rain, and they should show their faces.

The Five Immortals bowed their hands to Zuo Mu in the sky, and Zuo Mu bowed his hands to the five people in return, neither humble nor overbearing. The immortal rolled his eyes, and said impatiently to the sky: "Pretend not to see." The five immortals bowed, with a panicked expression.

Orange Dumpling, who was watching outside the formation, looked up curiously. After all, they and Zuo Mu had only seen the immortals in the ground, and had never seen the immortals in the sky. They had read mythological novels. The ghosts and ghosts all have strange appearances. I didn't expect that the appearances of several people are not only not strange but also very good-looking. The men are handsome and the women are beautiful.

Jiaozi is very curious about this reason, but he has always been shy in front of Xiaoshi. It is strange to say that Chengzi and Xiaoshi have a closer relationship, but Jiaozi prefers Zuo Mu. Jiaozi wants to wait for Zuo Mu to come down from the altar before asking. Unexpectedly, Cheng Zi asked the same question: "Brother Xiaoshi, in the "Bai Ze Tu" and "Sou Shen Ji" that Mu Ge asked me to memorize, those gods and ghosts are so ugly, why are they not as described in the book? , and, Brother Xiaoshi, those gods seem to be afraid of you..."

Xiao Shi raised his head and said very proudly: "Of course, gods are gods, gods are much higher than gods, and they will not be able to reach the level of this seat after tens of thousands of years of cultivation! As for their appearance, hehe, Who still reveals the prototype these days."

Orange Dumplings were dumbfounded. They always thought that Zuo Mu was better than Xiaoshi, because Zuo Mu was the one who was busy all this time. Brother Xiaoshi, they only knew that he was really a Dragon King. Brother Xiaoshi greeted him, so Cheng Zi blinked and asked again: "Brother Xiaoshi, which Dragon King's child are you!"

"Hey, my father is a real dragon in the god world, and those dragon kings in the fairy world are at best a dragon, and they can't even keep up with me!" Xiaoshi stretched out his hand and gave Chengzi a burst.He warned, "Don't talk nonsense, brat, if you ask such a question again, I'll ask your brother Zuo Mu to make you a rabbit tail that you can pin on the back of your trousers."

Cheng Zi was stunned, and quickly covered his buttocks, and the two drooping rabbit ears on the hat flickered.

Jiaozi snickered in her heart, but she didn't show anything on her face. She pushed her gold-rimmed glasses calmly, but she saw the little food staring at herself with a strange smile.

"Little devil, don't snicker. Zuo Mu also made one for you. I gave it to you in the past few days. It was originally a rabbit ear. I said good things for you, so Zuo Mu replaced it with cat ears. Thank you very much. Let's go!" Xiaoshi said very stinkingly.

After hearing this, Dumpling’s face changed drastically, and Chengzi was overjoyed. Brother Mu is a handicraft king, and he likes to do everything by himself. Not only the magic tools are made by himself, but also their clothes, hats, socks and shoes. Knitting sweaters in the room cheerfully, apart from the common and proud snacks, the oranges and dumplings were all ruined.

Is it really Xiaoshi's father, Zuo Mu's mother?

While talking, Xiao Shi casually made a knot and covered the orange and dumplings. The orange dumplings were still in doubt, and snowflakes fell from the sky after a while.Ask for rain, the three seasons are rain, and winter melts snow.

But seeing Zuo Mu put away the mahogany sword, raised the Qiankun bag, sucked the thing for rain into it, put it away, put it on his cuff, facing the snow, and slowly walked towards several people.

Xiao Shi grabbed Cheng Zi's rabbit ears, and said to the two children, "This snow will fall for about three days, we're afraid we'll have to find a place to live."

Dumpling nodded, Chengzi clapped his hands and shouted to Zuo Mu: "Brother Mu, I want to eat hot pot!"

Xiao Shi nodded, pretending to be calm and said: "Then the hot pot."

Zuo Mu burst out laughing, he bent down and picked up the dumplings, Chengzi blinked, and looked at Xiaoshi longingly, Xiaoshi snorted twice, picked up Chengzi, "I'm dead, little fat man, it's time to lose weight!"

Zuo Mu and the dumpling in his arms smiled heartily.

None of them expected that within a few days of their stable life, troubles would come to them. To be exact, Daoist Qingxuan would come to them with his troubles.
