075 “Blessing from Heavenly Official” Chapter 74

☆、Chapter 74 When it rains hard, ask the rain master to borrow a rain hat

The young man was completely stunned.

Feng Xin and Mu Qing wanted to block him with all kinds of tricks. They managed to drag Xie Lian down, but Xie Lian waved them away and said: “I know! Don’t say it! I know it’s against the rules. Just pretend you didn’t hear it. As long as you don’t say it, no one will know. Just this time. Don’t tell it. Do you hear me?”

Mu Qing had an expression as if she was forced to eat a sock, shook her head, and murmured: “How could you be so… so confident in saying ‘live for me’? It’s really…”

Xie Lian didn’t think it was anything at all, but when he said that, he thought it was something and made him blush.Feng Xin immediately said with a straight face: “Okay, His Highness has already said no more, why are you mentioning it?” But the corner of his mouth twitched.Xie Lian couldn’t stand it anymore and defended: “What are you doing? My words are obviously very useful. Look.”

The young man sat in silence for a while, and did not hear any more words of thanks, so he rubbed his face a few times, took off the offering plate on the table, held it in his arms, and began to eat the shriveled fruits and snacks inside, chewing hard, and eating out a pitiful and ferocious energy like a small animal.Xie Lian bent down to look at him, smiled, and said to the other two people: “Look, it’s useful. He didn’t eat just now, but now he eats.”

Mu Qing said: “Okay, it works. You are a god.”

Feng Xin also said: “Yes, it’s useful. You are a god.”

“…”

Xie Lian said seriously: “Yes, I am God. I called you here because I made a decision.”

At this point, the atmosphere that had been relaxed for less than a moment became solemn again. Feng Xin asked: “How to do it?” Mu Qing said: “Do you still care?”

Xie Lian said: “No matter what. It’s very simple. If there is not enough water in Xianle, go to a country outside Xianle.”

Mu Qing hesitated and said: “Going to other countries? Is that too far? I’m afraid I have to borrow some magic weapons from water magic priests, and the priests stationed in other countries may not be willing.”

Xie Lian naturally took this into consideration and said: “I’ll try it first. It’s better than doing nothing. You guys stay in Yong’an first and work on disaster relief in serious places first. I’ll go back to heaven. Is there any problem?”

Feng Chuang: “No problem. I’ll hold it from behind.”

Mu Qing thought for a while and then asked: “Your Highness, where are the prayers of the believers in your Prince’s Palace?”

Xie Lian said: “This is what I want to say. Just pick up the important ones first and solve them for me. You can suppress the less important ones.”

Although Mu Qing didn’t look too optimistic, she still said: “You are His Highness the Crown Prince, and I will listen to you. However, I suggest not to press it for too long.”

Xie Lian patted their shoulders, Feng Xin and Mu Qing bowed, and then retreated.In the small temple, only Xie Lian and the child were left.Xie Lian walked out of the temple, looked back, and went straight to Xianjing without staying any longer.

He originally planned to visit a few water magic priests first, but strangely, the first few happened to not be in Xianjing Mansion, and there was only one Rain Master left who did not live in Xianjing.Xie Lian was walking in a hurry on the streets of Xianjing. He walked towards a female civil servant in black who was carrying a few files and said with a smile: “Your Highness, you are back.”

Xie Lian hurriedly said: “Nangong, you came just in time, do you know where the Rain Master’s residence is?”

The girl in black is named Nangong Jie, and she is a lower-level civil servant in Xiatianting.After Xie Lian ascended, many sundries were handed over and handled by her.Therefore, she is well-informed and handles things properly, so Xie Lian has a good impression of her.Nangong Jie said: “Master Yu hasn’t built his mansion yet, so he is temporarily living in the country of Rain Master in the south.” He pointed out the location of Master Yu’s residence and said, “What are you looking for for that master?”

Thanks for the pity: “It’s urgent, thank you very much.” Just as he was about to leave, he turned around, coughed slightly, and said sheepishly: “Nangong, you are familiar with these priests in the Heavenly Court. Can you tell me, Master Rainmaster, is there anything… that you particularly like?”

Generally speaking, after a new priest ascends to the throne, the smarter ones will visit the temples of all the priests who are currently in office and give them gifts.This is giving face.This is almost an unwritten rule, but because Xie Lian ascended so suddenly, no one led him to teach him when he first went up.Later, the Imperial Master reminded him that firstly, the best opportunity had been missed, and it would be awkward to send him away. Secondly, this kind of thing would inevitably remind people of corrupt officials taking the back door. As the prince, Xie Lian had a bad feeling about this, and finally decided to let nature take its course. There will always be opportunities to get closer to the immortal officials in a sincere and legitimate way.

The posture was beautiful at first, but now he is completely different from his usual behavior. He proactively asks a priest what he likes, as if he is preparing to bribe others, which is unavoidable.However, there is nothing we can do otherwise.Those who live in Xianjing have at least spoken to each other in the psychic formation, and any conditions and favors can be discussed easily.The Rain Master, on the other hand, had no acquaintance with him at all. It was his first visit, and Xie Lian was always embarrassed to make people mistakenly think that he wanted to borrow the magic weapon in vain.

Nangong Jie immediately understood and said: “I’m ashamed, I’m afraid I can’t help His Highness. Master Yu is a low-key person. Let alone me, I’m afraid no one in the entire heaven knows about this Master’s private preferences. I’m sorry.”

Xie Lian’s face turned a little red and said: “It’s nothing, don’t take it to heart, thank you very much.”

Nangong Jie added: “However, if you have something important to ask, you might as well come and visit directly. With Master Yiyu’s temperament, I might not see you.”

Xie Lian thanked him again, and followed her instructions, heading south to the place where the Rain Master temporarily stayed.

It was a small village with green mountains and green waters, and beautiful scenery, but he had no intention of admiring it at all.Walking through the field ridge, I finally saw a stone tablet with the word “Rain” engraved on it.Logically speaking, after passing this monument, it is the territory where the Rain Master temporarily lives. Those who are active here should also be the Rain Master’s subordinates.But as Xie Lian walked along, there were green fields all around. In the fields there were mooing cows, waterwheels, and farmers working hard to plant rice. There was also a crooked thatched hut on the edge of the field. It didn’t have any fairy-like image, which made Xie Lian suspect that he had gone to the wrong place.Isn’t this just a small, run-down farm village?

Just when he was doubting, the black cow plowing the land suddenly let out a long “moo” sound. He stood up, stretched out his two front hooves, and took out the plow for himself.The strong body becomes narrower and narrower, and the long bull nose becomes shorter and shorter.In the blink of an eye, he transformed from a sleek black cow into a shirtless farmer.

The farmer was tall and strong, with well-defined muscles on his body and a hard face. He wore a shiny iron nose ring on his nose like the cow, and held a piece of grass in his mouth.The other farmers witnessed this shocking change, but they continued to work as usual.Only then did Xie Lian confirm that the people here were not mortals. He walked forward, clasped his fists and said, “Excuse me, fellow Taoist, Master Yu is staying here temporarily?”

The farmer who turned into a black cow pointed to the shore and said: “Here. Master Rain Master, lives there.”

“…”

Xie Lian looked at it several times and finally determined that the direction he was pointing was only the thatched hut that seemed to collapse in the wind and would definitely leak in rainy days.

Even his most shabby grassroots Prince’s Temple is much more dignified and prosperous compared to this small house.Xie Lian couldn’t help but feel strange.It was said that Lord Rain Master was a descendant of the royal family of Rain Master Kingdom just like him before he ascended. It was because of this that he did not directly bring his rare gems as gifts. Considering how he felt about such things, Rain Master was not rare like him.Why do you feel so depressed after ascending?Probably, it is also a way of cultivation.

He was very polite. He thanked the farmer, approached the hut, and said loudly outside: “Master Yushi, Prince Xianle thanks you for taking the liberty of visiting me. I didn’t inform you in advance. Please forgive me.”

There was no sound in the room, and the farmer came up dragging the plow and said, “Oh? Are you the prince who ascended to the throne at the age of seventeen?”

Thanks for the pity: “Ashamed.”

The farmer said: “There is nothing to be ashamed of, it’s a fact. However, Mr. Rainmaster doesn’t like to see people. He was injured recently. I’m afraid I can’t come out to see you.”

When Xie Lian heard this, he felt a little disappointed, but he still wanted to give it a try and said: “Can you please pass the message on my behalf? I have something important to ask of you. If it is inconvenient for Master Yu to listen, I will not force it.”

The farmer chuckled and said, “There’s no need for me to send a message. We all know what you’re here for. There’s no water in Xianle Country. It doesn’t feel good, right?”

Hearing this, Xie Lian was startled and said, “Do you know about the Xianle Kingdom?”

The farmer said: “Of course I know. It’s not just those of us who live in poverty in the mountains and valleys who know that your Xianle Kingdom is in disaster. Who else doesn’t know it now? You yourself don’t know your affairs, but others are watching you all day long, but they know it better than you. Maybe you are still happy in your heart, haha. Are you here to ask the Rain Master to borrow a magic weapon to help with disaster relief?”

After being told the truth by his words, Xie Lian realized that not all the priests in Heaven happened to be absent, but they knew his purpose clearly and deliberately stayed behind closed doors, or had already avoided it, not wanting to take a trip into this muddy water.He sighed and thought to himself: “Is it true that we should visit every big temple in the beginning so that we can meet each other in the future?” He thought a little frustrated and said in a low voice: “That’s it. If Master Yu is inconvenienced, I won’t bother you.”

But the farmer said: “Why don’t you pester me? Do you want to save face? This is a major issue for your national survival. Shouldn’t you insist on pestering me? Can’t bear to ask you to lower your dignity? Young people can’t be so impatient. To put it bluntly, Mr. Rain Master helps you out of love, not to help you out of duty. I lend you because I am in a good mood. If I don’t lend you, you can’t complain when you look back.”

Xie Lian knew that what he said was reasonable, but he was already overwhelmed. In addition, the tone was not very friendly. He felt a slight surge of anger, raised his head and said seriously: “I know what you said, and I will never complain behind my back. Why do you need to treat me like this in advance?”This idea?I said that I won’t bother you, but I don’t want to make things difficult for you, Master Yu.But if Master Yu is not embarrassed, you can borrow the magic weapon just by asking me to give you eight thousand temples, and then kneel down and kowtow to you a hundred times, so what’s the problem?”

The farmer laughed and said: “Are you angry? The temper of a child. Go on!”

As soon as he threw it away, Xie Lian raised his hand and received a green bamboo hat, which was exactly the one that the farmer originally carried on his back.Thanks for the pity: “This is it?”

The farmer said: “The thing you want to borrow. Mr. Rain Master asked me to give it to you before you came. Be careful, we won’t spare you if you mess it up.”

Xie Lian opened his eyes wide and said: “Why?”

The farmer said, “Why didn’t I tell you? I’m in a good mood if I lend you. If other priests don’t lend you, Lord Rain Master will lend you money. Lord Rain Master can do whatever he wants.”

Xie Lian said repeatedly: “Thank you! Thank you very much!”

The farmer said: “Don’t be too happy, Your Highness. Although Mr. Rain Master has been ascending for longer than you, he does not have as many followers as you, and his magic power is far less than you. In addition, he is injured. Apart from lending you this thing, you can only rely on yourself for the rest. Far water cannot quench the thirst of the near, this Rain Master Li can onlyYou can move rain, but you can’t make water.You don’t have enough water in Xianle Kingdom, so you can only borrow it from other countries. Other countries are not sure if they are willing. Only Rain Master Kingdom has surplus all year round.But with such long mountains and rivers, you will consume a lot of mana every time. No matter how much mana you have, it will eventually be exhausted.”

Xie Lian knows very well how difficult it is to lend one’s magic weapon to unrelated people.He bowed deeply towards the hut and said: “Master Rain Master is willing to lend a helping hand. I am extremely grateful. I cannot thank you enough. If there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please send Master Rain Master as much as you can. Farewell!”

He borrowed the magic weapon and immediately found a lake and river in the south. He carried a large amount of lake water with his rain hat and traveled thousands of miles back to Xianle Yong’an. He found the village with the worst drought, Lang’er Bay, and turned the hat over in the clouds.

Suddenly, a light rain began to fall in the sky.Xie Lian jumped off the clouds and touched the ground with his feet. The half-dead villagers couldn’t believe it. Some rushed out to get wet in the rain and cheered, while others hurriedly pushed out the large and small basins used for washing faces and feet at home to catch the rain.

Seeing this, Xie Lian breathed a sigh of relief and then smiled.At this time, I suddenly heard a voice shouting from a distance: “His Royal Highness!”

When he turned around, he saw Mu Qing, half of her face darkened, turning out from behind a tree.Seeing that his expression was not good, Xie Lian knew something was wrong and said, “What’s wrong? Did something happen?”

The author has something to say: When I coded in a small black room, my hands shook and I typed an extra 0, locking myself in. I typed a whole three pages before I was released…

There is still drama behind Huahua!

This rain master’s hat was not the one that the prince later carried, and the rain master’s magic weapon was later returned.Don’t worry about whether the bamboo hat will leak. This is a magic weapon and it won’t leak!
