Huangmao went to see Zhao Wei in panic, but found that Zhao Wei had disappeared.
From time to time, people passed by him, they were all villagers who were alarmed and came to watch the excitement.
The people of Mouse Village were in a panic due to the harassment caused by the master and his apprentice. Everyone gathered together, mainly to find out what had happened.
The yellow-haired man followed the crowd stealthily and soon saw a group of men, young and old, trembling with fear on their faces.
Under their gaze, a ghostly paper figure began to speak.
"I am the True Lord of the Mysterious Thunder Department. I happened to visit this village and discovered that seven villagers, including Wang Baotian, Ugly Cat, and others, were committing crimes. I am now sending down divine punishment to serve as a warning to others."
"You should abandon evil and do good, otherwise disaster will befall you. Remember! Remember!"
…
The villagers were so frightened that they kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
"Old Immortal, please spare us. Every wrong has its perpetrator. Wang Baotian and the others deserve to die. We are innocent. Please have mercy on us and spare us!"
"We will definitely take this as a warning, mend our ways, and never do anything that is harmful to the world again."
"Moreover, we are willing to build a temple for you, the old immortal, and offer incense to you for generations. Please let us go!"
…
While everyone was still kowtowing and praying for atonement, they heard the sound of thunder, which was very loud in the quiet night.
It was the moment when the moon and stars were hidden, and the thunder came so strangely that it could shatter a person's heart.
Then one of them pointed at the white wall of a house and screamed.
"Look, what is that..."
Those were the people from the commune who painted the wall white in order to write propaganda slogans.
In the entire Mouse Village, only four or five households have walls that are so white and smooth.
But at this time, when thunder sounds, this wall will flash with light and shadow.
Every time there is a thunder explosion, there will be a flash.
When the light disappeared, we saw a sudden burst of fire at the other end of the village.
Then, flashes of fire appeared in the seven directions of east, west, south and north.
Everyone was so frightened when they saw the fire that started out of nowhere that their legs went weak.
"This is the god getting angry and wants to burn everyone in our village to death!"
"Gods, please don't blame us. We all know we were wrong. We will definitely turn over a new leaf and never do anything wrong again!"
…
They prayed while putting out the fire. They wanted to stay alive and didn't want their homes to be burned down.
Huangmao was stunned when he saw the whole village running around to put out the fire.
He was not sure whether it was Master Zhao Wei who did this.
It would take more than one person to light fires in seven directions at the same time!
And how come the scene of thunder and lightning is so real?
With Huangmao's limited brain capacity, he couldn't figure out how Zhao Wei did it.
Could it be that a miracle really happened?
Thinking of this, he felt like he was about to pee his pants.
As he was feeling hesitant and anxious, he felt a force of gravity on his shoulder, which frightened him so much that he fell to his knees.
"Please spare me, old immortal. I know nothing. It was not me who did it..."
He kept kowtowing there, so he didn't see Zhao Wei's expression at the moment, which was a feeling of powerlessness and fatigue.
This guy is really embarrassing for him.
Fortunately, the villagers were busy putting out the fire and no one paid any attention to Huangmao's behavior.
Zhao Wei kicked Huang Mao's butt: "Stop knocking, I want to go back, do you want to leave?"
"hiss……"
Huangmao turned around as if he had been electrocuted and sat down on the ground in fear.
When he saw that it was Zhao Wei who kept rolling his eyes, he realized that he had overreacted.
I really can't blame him.
These country folk have too many myths, ghosts and legends in their daily lives. They have been deeply rooted in their genes, and everything they see is related to gods.
"Alright! If you don't want to be caught and beaten to death, follow me back to the village now!"
Zhao Wei got up and started to walk away. How could Huangmao dare to lose him? He quickly got up and followed him.
"Master, what just happened was so scary. Was it... true or false?"
Zhao Wei did not answer this idiotic question.
Huangmao murmured to himself unwillingly.
"The thunder and lightning were so scary. My god, I got goosebumps all over my body, and they haven't gone away yet."
I’m afraid I’ll get seriously ill after I go back.
This night has left a terrible shadow on him.
He didn't know what the hedgehog was used for, nor did he know what Zhao Wei's box was used for.
Anyway, when he woke up, the world became terrifying to him.
When walking on the road at night, you will see ghosts everywhere, and your body will involuntarily tighten, as if an evil ghost will pounce on you in the next second and tear you into pieces and eat you.
Zhao Wei endured until he entered the village, then he slowed down his pace and said to them, "Do you know why I asked you guys to go to the literacy class?"
"Reading can help one understand the truth and not be easily confused by external things."
"What you saw was just an illusion, used to intimidate the people of Mouse Village so that they won't come to our village to take advantage of us again."
"People like them are fearless and unafraid of death. It's useless to reason with them, and you can't conquer them with fists."
"We can only find another way and use these unorthodox methods to attack the beliefs that have been engraved deep in their souls since ancient times."
"This is an immoral thing to do. Keep it to yourself and don't mention it to anyone in the future."
"That's it. Do you understand what I mean?"
