MTL - Marvel: Silver Superman of Asgard-Chapter 178
"Hey...these people are really pitiful, master, you said it's a beautiful day, and this city is not a place with arid climate, why is it so dry and rainless?"
Rhodes said.
"I'm afraid there will be some hidden secrets in it. Let's get rid of these things in front of us first, and I'm afraid the things behind this will naturally come out."
"Well, whoever killed so many people this time, I will never let him go."
Yang Chan was also murderous at this time.
At this time, some people in the city said.
"Hurry up and go to the altar outside the city. The mage invited by the city lord has arrived. You can pray for rain and blessings."
"Go and see, we are saved."
"Huh? Really? Go and see¨‖."
At this time, many people from inside the city flocked to the altar outside the city.
Rhodes said.
"Go, follow me out to see what kind of mage it is, and let us learn a lot."
Rhodes and Yang Chan also walked to the altar to watch.
At this time, I saw a person dressed as an official serving on the altar, and a person dressed as a Taoist priest standing on the high platform, I don't know what to talk about.
Under the altar, many people in the city were watching, and some of them were holding large and small basins to catch some rainwater to quench their thirst.
At this time, the city lord said respectfully.
"Master, these are the banknotes collected by the people in the city, and there are only so many. You must save the lives of the people in the city."
"The life and death of the people in our city depends entirely on this rain."
This mage has a goatee, a thin face, and looks quite wretched.
The mage looked at the money in the hands of the castellan.
"Why is it so small?"
"Master, there is really no other way. If we don't go on for so long, there is only so much money we can get out. If there is any more, there is really no way. There are not many living people in our city. We can make up for it." It’s not easy to pay so much.”
"Master, you can do it, if this drought continues, there will be no living people in our city, and there will be no money."
The mage looked at the silver note in his hand.
"All right, all right, if that's the case, then for the sake of my compassion, do a ritual ceremony. You must know that we who call the wind and rain will lose our lifespan."
"Why...."
The city lord nodded quickly when he heard the mage's words.
"Thank you mage, thank you mage for your mercy, please do it quickly."
The castellan stepped down from the altar.
the master complained.
"Really, I only made so much money this time. I won't be tossing around in this small town in the future. I won't get much money, and it's still troublesome."
Naturally, this sorcerer doesn't know how to call wind and rain, he is just a person who bluffs and deceives everywhere under the guise of a Taoist priest.
It's just taking advantage of the current drought in many areas and taking the opportunity to amass a lot of money.
He doesn't know how to call the wind and rain at all, and naturally he doesn't know how to help these people.
The people in the whole city are eagerly looking forward to it, but this mage doesn't have such thoughts at all.
I just thought that when the time came, I would pretend to be tossing around, and then just find an excuse to slip away.
As for the life and death of the people in this city, he didn't care at all, he just ran away with as much money as he could.
At this moment, under the altar, Yang Chan asked Rhodes.
"'〃Master, do you think this man can bring rain?"
Rhodes sneered.
"He doesn't have any spiritual power in him, he's just an ordinary person, how can he call the wind and rain."
"And even if it is the technique of summoning the wind and calling the rain, it is only raining locally."
"If you want to solve the water problem in the entire city, you must (promise) get water from the river, and the water in the river must be allowed by the Dragon King of the Four Seas and the Dragon King of the River. Even a Taoist priest can’t do it, let alone him.”
Only then did Yang Chan react.
"I just said why does this guy look so wrong, I didn't expect the problem to be here."
"He is a liar at all. Isn't it clear that he is taking money from the common people to buy?"
"His essential purpose is here."
"Hmph, let's see how I deal with him later."
"Don't worry, the fun has just begun."
At this time, on the altar, the mage began to dance the mahogany sword in his hand, and said something in his mouth.
Chapter 335: Praying for Rain
The Taoist first picked up a piece of talisman paper with the mahogany sword in his hand, then pretended to hold the mahogany sword and held it in the air.
I don't know what method was used, the talisman paper on the sword suddenly burned, and the whole talisman paper was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye.
It caused the people around to watch and pray for rain to exclaim.
"Wow... It really is an expert with profound Taoism, it is really too powerful."
"Great, we are finally saved."
"With this great **** here, we will definitely be able to rain down the rain."
"Thank you Master for saving your life..."
Many people saw this scene and bowed down one after another.
Kowtow to the altar where the Taoist prayed for rain.
Even the city lord of this city couldn't help but kneel down devoutly.
"God, let the rain fall quickly, please have mercy..."
Yang Chan said with a look of disdain.
"Would this guy be useful? It's as real as 920, but master, didn't you say that this guy is a mortal? Then how did the talisman paper in his hand burn?"
"Since you want to come out to cheat money, how can you do it if you have nothing to do?"
"It's just some props prepared in advance. This kind of thing is really too simple. It's just a trick of the rivers and lakes. Some phosphorous powder is stained on the talisman. Even if the talisman paper is very light and thin, it is very simple to burn it and fly back in an instant."
"Oh, so that's the case, cut, what kind of profound power do I think, I didn't expect it to be these things."
Rhodes said with a smile.
"I know a lot of tricks like this. It's really too simple. If you know the situation behind these tricks, you will feel that there is no meaning at all. But for those who don't know the behind the scenes, this is simply Amazing (afcj)."
At this moment, Yang Chan looked at the common people around with some pity.
"Tsk tsk, these guys are so easy to fool, it's really easy to deceive."
"They can be regarded as rushing to the doctor in a hurry. Right now, the people in this city are in dire straits. It's normal to lack the judgment of the past. Moreover, these people don't understand these things at all, so they are too easy to be deceived, hey. ..."
"But let's not talk about it. Although this guy has no real skills, he still pretends to be quite similar. Believe it or not, this guy will show us a fire-breathing show later."
"Huh? Is it really the master? That's so interesting, let's see how this guy sprays."
The other common people were praying devoutly for the rain to come from the sky, but Rhodes and Yang Chan completely regarded this Taoist priest as a troupe of Jianghu opera, and Yang Chan was still looking forward to the next performance of this Taoist priest.
At this time, the Taoist priest was really working hard, jumping up and down like a monkey while chanting prayers for rain.
"Sanqing Sanqing, the heavens are high and true, be compassionate, and pray."
"May I bestow blessings on the world, and may I bestow grace and light to save danger and suffering."
"Natural disasters will disappear forever, man-made disasters will never prosper, the country will be peaceful, and things will be prosperous every year."
"The rain falls from the sky, and all sentient beings are saved. In my name, I pray to Sanqing that the weather will be smooth and the rain, thunder, and lightning will all obey my orders, and the urgency is like a law."
Yang Chan commented from the sidelines.
"Hey, it's really what Master said, and it really looks like that. It's a pity that this guy doesn't have any real skills. Otherwise, maybe he can really be recruited by him."
At this time, the Taoist jumped on the spot, then took a few sips of something unknown from the bowl on the altar, and then sprayed it towards the candle flame.
I saw a group of flames rising up.
Yang Chan was immediately happy.
"Hey, master, he really breathed fire, how did he breathe it? Didn't he use the Five Elements Fire Art?"
"Of course not. It's just a sip of high-strength wine in the mouth. Spray it towards the place where there is fire. You can spray it as you like. Just be careful not to burn your mouth. It's not technical."
"Oh? So that's the case. That's really interesting."
Fortunately, it was here. If it was changed to modern society, with Rhodes' fancy way of dismantling the stage, I am afraid that he would be the one who came to ruin the situation, and he might be beaten by a juggler.
But even if you fight, I'm afraid you can't beat Rhodes.
After some operations by the Taoist priest, all the common people looked at the sky devoutly.
But at this time, the altar is still under the clear sky and the sun is shining brightly.
There was no sign of rain at all.
The city lord and the people were still looking forward to it, but after a while, there was still not a single drop of rain.
Let alone a drop of rain, not even a cloud came.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the altar in front of him was a bit awkward.
At this time, the Taoist priest burned a few more talisman papers and said.
"The wind is coming..."
Still a piece of calm.
After a while, the Taoist burned another handful of paper talismans.
"The rain is coming..."
But it is still calm.
The awkward atmosphere is rapidly increasing.
The priest let out a long sigh.
Chapter 336: Storm, Thunder and Lightning Are Not At Home
"Sanqing is above, today's disciples offer a generous gift, and I also ask Sanqing to send down his grace to save all living beings..."
"Wind, thunder and lightning listen to my orders."
"The wind is coming... the rain is coming..."
But after tossing for a while, there was still no movement at all.
This made the common people a little suspicious.
"It's been a long time since the spell was cast, why is there still no movement?"
"I don't know, could it be that this Taoist priest can't attract rain?"
"Is this Taoist fake? I've been tossing around here for a long time, and it looks decent. Can it work?"
"Yeah, if this is a fake Taoist priest, wouldn't he just come to cheat us of money?"
At this time, the people began to realize that something was not quite right.
So they began to raise their own doubts.
