Liaozhai Great Sage

Chapter 64 Invite Lei Jiang
Inviting to the gods is a very important and serious sacrifice in this world. Generally speaking, it is very cumbersome to hold a gods’ offering. Not only do you need to find scholars with both ability and political integrity to write sacrificial essays, but you also need to find good morals and respected The clan elders or kind-hearted people in the village and county read the sacrificial rites, and besides that, they also need to prepare various sacrifices.

The three animals are indispensable, and there are also cumbersome etiquettes such as bathing and burning incense, boys holding flags, and so on.

It can be said that it must be as grand as it is to be grand.

Only when you are sincere can you invite gods to help you eliminate disasters and problems.

If the sincerity is not enough, maybe the gods will not be invited, but it will bring huge disasters.

Right now, the conditions in Dahu Village are difficult and the people are in distress. In addition, the water demon has been making trouble here for several years, making life even more difficult for the villagers who rely on mountains and water.

Naturally, it is impossible to do such a luxury to invite the gods.

Besides, even with the conditions, Li Xiuyuan couldn't wait ten days and half a month for preparation.

Everything is kept simple, I hope a certain road god can understand.

However, when it comes to inviting God, Li Xiuyuan has no confidence in his heart. He has dealt with ghosts, but he has never dealt with gods. He just heard from his master that if he invites God by himself, the chance of success is very high. The gods in the sky Still very happy to sell their own face.

The reason is naturally related to one's own identity.

"It's almost time, burn incense and pray." Li Xiuyuan looked at the time and said suddenly.

"Quick, kneel down, kneel down and pray."

At this time, the old village chief hurriedly greeted the villagers, and they all knelt down and worshiped the sky, praying that the gods would come today to wipe out the black fish demon for his Dahu village.

All the villagers, men, women, old and young, knelt down and muttered words.

Even the little beggar boy knelt on the ground respectfully, praying and at the same time opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Xiuyuan, looking at the sky, as if he was very much looking forward to inviting the gods from the sky to exorcise demons.

Right now, it can be said that everyone is united and sincere.

As the incense sticks were lit, for a while, the surrounding area was filled with fragrance, and the area around the sacrificial table was even more smoky.

This time, when the gods were invited to sacrifice, all the incense candles from all the families in Dahu Village contributed, and all the incense sticks, large and small, were placed around, because there was no room for them on the table.

After a few boys in the village lit all the incense.

Li Xiuyuan just walked to the sacrificial table and began to chant the sacrificial oration.

"When the day is auspicious and the time is good, the heaven and the earth will open up. If you want to burn incense, the smoke will be heavy, and the god will come"

At this moment, everyone was silent, and the entire Dahu Village was very quiet. Only Li Xiuyuan's voice echoed in the air, and the voice gradually spread with the breeze. It seemed that the entire Dahu Village could be heard everywhere, even in the big lake in front of him. Above, his voice can also be received.

Quiet, peaceful, and sunny.

Li Xiuyuan was the only one who was reciting the prayer to the gods. The prayer to the gods could not be read only once, otherwise the passing gods would not have time to hear it.

You have to read it at least nine times.

And just when Li Xiuyuan was praying to the gods to offer sacrifices, the depths of the Great Lake were under the rocks.

A huge black fish crawled motionless in the reef hole, most of its body was buried in the mud, only half of its head was exposed.

This black fish is covered with scales and has sharp teeth in its mouth. It is hideous and terrifying. It is not like a black fish at all, but more like a crocodile. However, above the eyes of this black fish, there is a deep hole. Holding a spiked arrow, most of the arrow sank into it, and the wound was very deep, and Heiyu seemed to be a little sluggish because of this injury.

It is not fake, but also a wounded demon.

As the sound of inviting the gods to offer sacrifices echoed on the surface of the lake, Heiyu, who had fallen into a deep sleep, seemed to hear the sound, and suddenly opened his remaining eye.

There was a bit of human surprise in that green eye.

"Whoa~!"

Suddenly, its huge body swung suddenly, and the nearby lake water rolled up undercurrents. It immediately left the nest and swam towards the lake.

At the moment when it rolled up the mud, one could vaguely see the broken human bones in the mud, the skeletons were rolling and shaking, and there were all kinds of tattered and outrageous clothes nearby, and in the mud of these human bones, half of them had already disappeared. The broken small bamboo pole was deeply buried inside, only showing a little trace with the tumbling silt, but it was soon covered by the tumbling silt.

Work in a while.

After the sacrificial oration was finished, everything was still the same as before, and nothing special happened.

Li Xiuyuan looked up at the sky.

Cloudless, blue sky, gentle breeze.

Although the weather is fine, this is not what he wants.

"I hope I don't disappoint people." Li Xiuyuan thought to himself, and threw the finished sacrificial oration into the brazier in front of him to burn.

Under the flames, the written sacrificial oracle was immediately burned up. At the same time, it was strange to say that when his sacrificial oratory was burning, a puff of blue smoke came out.

This blue smoke merged with the incense near the sacrificial table, and finally turned into a straight smoke that rose slowly towards the sky, and finally disappeared at the end of the line of sight, so I couldn't see the smoke clearly just now Where did it finally go.

Li Xiuyuan watched the blue smoke disappear, and he couldn't help feeling a little hopeful in his heart.

He knew that this puff of green smoke flew away carrying his sacrificial oration, and at the same time, it also condensed the sincere pleas of the hundreds of villagers in Dahu Village.

But if any passing gods take this incense stick, they will definitely come to this place.

However, Li Xiuyuan was worried that there were no gods passing by at this moment, or that there were gods passing by but set off sacrifices, and the incense was too little to show their spirits.

It is precisely because of this, and this is also why the god sacrifices are held for several days, and it is held grandly. Because of the grandness, the gods can sense it, and because of the thick incense, the gods can move the hearts of the gods, and the gods in the sky are willing to show up to rescue them. .

The green smoke drifted away, and it took a long time.

It's business as usual, nothing happened.

"Li, Mr. Li, this prayer to God will not fail." The old village chief was more hopeful and disappointed, seeing that nothing happened, he couldn't help but look at Li Xiuyuan eagerly.

Li Xiuyuan frowned: "It seems that the first time to invite the gods was a failure, but I also wrote a sacrificial letter, try again, maybe there is still a chance."

After finishing speaking, he took out the second sacrificial oration from the sacrificial table.

This second sacrificial text is the same as the first sacrificial text, it invites thunder to kill demons, but the only difference is that this second sacrificial text is written with his blood mixed with ink, bearing his imprint, which also represents his identity of.

The reason why I wrote two articles was also because I was afraid that the first one would fail, so I made extra preparations.

But just as he was about to throw the second prayer to the gods into the brazier, suddenly another villager from Dahu Village pointed to the sky in surprise.

"Look, there's a big lump flying over."

What a big lump?
Have you ever spoken like this?

Li Xiuyuan glanced at the villager with a strange expression, and then raised his head to look at the sky.

However, above the sky in the distance, a group of clouds gathered together and slowly floated towards here.

In the cloudless sky, this group of clouds is particularly eye-catching and weird, out of tune with everything around.

"Boom~!"

There were bursts of thunder in the clouds, and it spread throughout the entire Great Lake and Dahu Village.

"Great, we have invited Thor."

"The god of thunder has appeared, hurry up, kowtow to the god of thunder and beg him to help us get rid of the demon in Dahu village."

"I implore the god of thunder in the sky to take pity on the people of our Dahu village, and help us get rid of the monsters in the great lake."

The old village chief suddenly became apprehensive, and led the villagers to kneel down to worship the thundercloud that floated in.

Even the guards of the Li family knelt down one by one out of awe of the gods.

Only Li Xiuyuan stood motionless in front of the sacrificial table, looking at the drifting cloud with some curiosity and solemnity.

The clouds floated slowly, and finally stopped when they reached the sky above the Great Lake.

"I am the Thunder General under the Thunder God of Tiangong. I just wandered around here. I heard that there is a grievance here, so I came here to investigate." A majestic and majestic voice came from among the clouds.

The sound was like thunder, shaking people's hearts.
