Three Kingdoms in a box

Chapter 30: Is the Immortal Lord so effective?I don't believe it

Serving as a soldier and eating food is very attractive to the villagers of Xiagouhe. After all, the harvest at home has not been good for several years in a row. Everyone is almost out of food. They usually live on wild vegetables. My family didn't even have any wild vegetables, so I could only eat some grass roots and bark that were not unpalatable. I might have starved to death that day.

Fortunately it is summer and there are still grass roots and bark, otherwise we would really have to eat Guanyin soil.

Now, although Zhang Jiao is using his magic power to pray for rain to water the crops, there are still at least a few months from now until the autumn harvest. How will we survive these months?

Now that we have the opportunity to become a Taoist guardian and eat military food, who wouldn't cherish it?

People in this era have the simplest pursuits, as long as they have enough to eat.

As long as they have enough to eat, they will dare to do things even if they lose their heads. Therefore, recruiting soldiers in this era is also very simple, just take care of the food.

In the eyes of followers, food is definitely more important than the Immortal Lord, and the main reason why they believe in the Immortal Lord is to let the Immortal Lord bless them with good weather, a good harvest, and enough food for them.

So Zhang Jiao proposed to take charge of the food from the beginning, so no one could resist the temptation to become a Taoist soldier, and they even started to think about how to become a Taoist soldier.

The villagers were eager to try, and each one wanted to become a Taoist soldier who was in charge of food. After becoming a Taoist soldier, everyone would be able to resist the persecution of the Qian family as a team, which can be said to have many benefits.

Everyone was thinking, and Zhang Jiao said: "Well, we will discuss it after the military affairs. It has almost rained on the fields of Li Dagou's house, so there are still 51 households that have not prayed for rain. We need to pay more attention."

After hearing this, Zhang Jiao asked, "Where is the land of Li Ergou's family?"

After listening to Zhang Jiao's words, Li Ergou immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Zhang, the land next to this is my family's land."

Zhang Jiao glanced at Li Ergou and said: "Li Ergou, please remember not to call me Mr. Zhang from now on. I am now the leader of our Taiping Taoism, the Great Sage and Good Master. You should be called the Great Sage and Good Master!"

After hearing this, Li Ergou immediately saluted and said: "Sir, atone for your sins..."

"Ok?"

Zhang Jiao frowned slightly, and Li Ergou immediately changed his words: "The great virtuous teacher atones for his sins!"

Zhang Jiao said: "Remember not to call me wrong again."

"promise."

After saying that, Zhang Jiao raised his head slightly, glanced at the villagers and said, "You also want to call me a great virtuous teacher. You can no longer call me Mr. Zhang or the eldest son of the Zhang family!"

"promise!"

Zhang Jiao's move was to establish prestige. Titles are sometimes very important. They are also an important criterion for distinguishing grades, and they are also a symbol of status. From now on, Zhang Jiao will be the leader of Taiping Taoism. If he is not sure about his title, he will always be called by his followers in the future. Mr. Zhang, some even call him Mr. Zhang, so where does his prestige lie?

After Zhang Jiao finished emphasizing, he started doing it again, using the brush to draw talismans, using the brush to move dragons and snakes, and cooperated with Li Yu to provide rain for the villagers to water their fields!
Finally, the watering for 52 households was finished. Li Yu shook his sore arm. After watering 52 fields, it was like watering 52 pots of flowers. It was a little tiring!
After flexing his wrist, he took his phone and looked at it. He saw that the footage of the villain asking for rain had almost been taken. Li Yu was about to end today's artificial rainfall operation when he discovered that the villain in the box seemed to be quarreling.

Li Yu put the phone away and saw someone in the crowd questioning Zhang Jiao.

"Dalang of the Zhang family..." As soon as the man spoke, he saw Zhang Jiao looking over with an unkind expression. The man was shocked and quickly changed his words: "Great Master."

Zhang Jiao then said, "What's the matter?"

The man said: "Great Master, it rained on their fields. Why didn't it rain on the fields of our ten people's homes? Could it be that gods also look at people's dishes and cannot make all living beings equal?"

"Yes, Great Master, we also knelt down and prayed to the gods, but why don't we have a drop of rain in our fields? Isn't this bullying us? We are dissatisfied."

"That's right, Great Master, you just said that Nanhua Immortal saved the world, don't we count as worldly people? It rains in their house, why can't it rain in our house? I don't accept it!"

"Yes, I'm not convinced. It's going to rain too, and the seedlings in our fields are about to die!"

"Yes, immortals cannot be treated differently. Great Master, please pray for rain for us. We are also followers of immortals!"

……

Everyone was chattering, and Zhang Jiao frowned slightly. He originally wanted to scold him directly, but after thinking about it, it was related to the great cause of the Immortal Lord's preaching, and he couldn't be careless in the slightest, so he opened his mouth to transmit the message to Li Yu.

"Immortal Lord, why does it never rain in the fields of these ten people?"

Zhang Jiao asked, and Li Yu took a sip of water and replied: "These ten people are not sincere. When they worshiped me, I did not receive the power of their incense. Without the power of the incense, I naturally cannot give them rain." , since they asked you why you didn’t give them rain, you should question them and ask them if they have sincerely worshiped me!”

Zhang Jiao understood clearly after hearing this, so he shouted with a dark face: "I have communicated with the Immortal Lord just now. When everyone worshiped the Immortal Lord just now, did you sincerely worship him?"

Being questioned by Zhang Jiao, the ten people couldn't help but feel a little bit in their hearts, whether they were sincere when they worshiped just now, they knew too well, didn't they?No way, this Immortal Lord even knows this?

Thinking of this, someone quibbled: "We worshiped sincerely just now. Doesn't it mean that the Great Master doesn't believe in us?"

Zhang Jiao frowned and shouted: "You guys have to think about the consequences of lying to the gods. What is your situation? I'm afraid you know it better than anyone else. Do you still need me to point it out?"

When the ten people heard this, they were shocked. At this time, someone said with a bitter face: "Great Master, let me tell the truth. When I worshiped just now, I did have doubts about the Immortal Lord, so I didn't worship sincerely. But now I see I am completely convinced that the Immortal Lord really has the ability to move clouds and rain, and I would like to ask the Great Master to intercede on my behalf and give me another chance to believe in the Immortal Lord!"

"Yes, Great Master, I truly believe in the Immortal Lord now, and I ask Great Master to give me another chance!"

Everyone begged for a while, but Zhang Jiao didn't dare to make the decision. He asked Li Yu, and Li Yu said, "Then give them another chance."

Zhang Jiao was overjoyed when he heard this and said to Li Yu: "The Immortal Lord is kind!"

After saying that, Zhang Jiao looked at the ten people and said: "Well, the Immortal Lord is kind and gives you a chance to make amends. Now you can worship sincerely. After receiving the power of your incense, the Immortal Lord can make rain for you. Why don’t you kneel down quickly!”

After hearing this, the ten people immediately knelt down and worshiped, but the leader's eyes moved up and down, and he lowered his head and thought: "Is this immortal so efficacious? Is he deceiving me? Why don't I believe it? I don't worship sincerely. He Can you still see through my thoughts?"

After saying that, he clasped his hands together and worshiped heaven more devoutly than anyone else.
