Chapter 18 It’s reasonable for me, with white hair and white eyes, to become an immortal, right?
The immortal withdrew his hand, and his wide, flowing robe fluttered in the wind.
The long white hair, which is exactly the same as Brother Yuan's, is no longer considered a disaster star as before. All those who see the immortal will only think that the white hair is like frost and snow, and that he should be standing in the clouds, high above, looking down on the world.
That moment.
The couple's eyes suddenly turned red.
They originally thought that the child would be able to rely on his brute force and strange abilities to become a great general who could eliminate demons and suppress injustice. Of course, no one would dare to make trouble with the child's white hair and eyes.
But they never imagined that things could develop in an even more bizarre and wonderful direction.
Their children turned out to be immortals and were never disaster stars.
The couple stared at the immortal's figure with tears in their eyes, wishing they could remember every detail and every scene deeply in their hearts.
It seemed as if I would never see him again.
Lin Cui Niang tried hard to hold back her tears and murmured to herself, "Brother Yuan, be good in the future..."
Bai Yuan felt the sadness and reluctance conveyed by his original parents, and was slightly confused for a few seconds.
But he still has things to do now.
Bai Yuan was doing many things at once, controlling more than a dozen ice beasts of different shapes and sizes to fly to every corner of the surrounding villages.
Everyone had just recovered from their panic and fear, but they were soon brought back to their senses by the flood that was still spreading before their eyes, and their expressions became panic-stricken again.
The flood is still rising.
A mythical beast made of ice flew over. With a body and tail that were more than ten meters long, it could bring down the house with just one slap.
The villagers huddled together in fear and shock.
"ah……"
As soon as the scream was heard, the Ice Beast exhaled icy air from its mouth, instantly freezing the surrounding flood. It then swung its tail to roll up the villagers who had fallen into the flood.
The huge body exuded a chill, and it shook its head majestically and proudly, letting out a low roar. It did not look like that horrible evil demon that was terrifying and murderous.
This action made the villagers' panic disappear for the most part. They mustered up the courage to raise their heads, only to see the kind eyes of the divine beast.
The villagers knelt down and kowtowed in gratitude and tears, "Thank you, Master Fairy Beast."
The divine beast nodded slightly, then floated up into the air and continued to rescue people.
The abilities of these mythical beasts were all related to ice and snow, which were just right for controlling the floods, and they quickly rescued all the villagers.
The villagers stood on the ice platform, shivering from the cold, looking blankly at the village that was submerged by the yellow-brown flood.
The village is gone.
The flood destroyed all the food and crops.
Even if the person is still alive, what will happen next?
Bai Yuan felt wave after wave of emotional energy, from gratitude and awe before, to confusion and despair later.
Bai Yuan's eyes fell on the floods and his heart moved slightly.
He can even absorb the moonlight in this world and convert it into energy, so... can he do the same with these floods?
Water is also energy.
However, compared with invisible energy, the degree of energy conversion of ordinary matter is lower.
In the darkness, the immortal's sleeves fluttered.
The rushing flood flowed backwards, forming a waterspout that was sucked into the cuffs and disappeared.
The white sleeves are as smooth as new.
Only the flood on the ground was decreasing little by little, gradually revealing the original houses, trees and mountains.
“The water has decreased—!”
Someone suddenly exclaimed, and looked at the immortal in the sky with extremely awe and fanaticism. He was supposed to be high above, but he saved mortals like them time and time again.
As expected, only immortals have such means. This must be the legendary hidden tricks.
"Thank you for saving us, Immortal."
Among the villagers who kowtowed in gratitude, there were also many elderly or young people who had been living in extreme hardship. They kowtowed in despair while crying: "Fairy, please save our crops. Without food, we villagers really can't survive."
The last hope can only be placed on the immortal.
Bai Yuan converted the absorbed flood into energy and quickly replenished the part he had just consumed. He quietly created a new ability according to the information given by the system.
When all the flood water was absorbed, the muddy land was exposed.
Almost half of the crops in the fields were destroyed, but fortunately there were a lot of crop seeds in the flood water he had just absorbed, and he deliberately kept these seeds to use at this time.
Bai Yuan spread his voice all around, including the county, and said, "The flood has subsided. I pity you for having no food to eat. I will use the art of a good harvest to stimulate the growth of grain seeds, and then send a magical spell into the river of Zhaojia Village. You mortals can use this river to wash away all diseases caused by the flood."
As soon as the words fell, two white lights flew out.
In the fields affected by the flood in the surrounding villages, the dead crops and empty fields soon grew abundant crops and grains.
The other ray of light fell into the river near Zhaojia Village. The surface of the river was slightly glowing, making it easy to tell at a glance that this river was unusual.
Bai Yuan added: "The Half Moon Immortal Art has dissipated. I hope you can resume your normal life as soon as possible."
People from all over the county and all the villages looked up with dazed expressions.
food?
Is there also river water that can cure the plague after the disaster?
All the problems that troubled them and even made them feel desperate were solved.
Such a powerful immortal would actually consider so much for ordinary mortals.
At that moment, all the villagers, even the guards and others trapped in the village, showed fanatical and excited expressions.
They knelt and kowtowed again.
"The floods are gone. That's great, great!"
"Thank you, Immortal."
They had experienced a near-death experience, and the shock in their hearts was even greater than that of the people in the county, which also provided Bai Yuan with a lot of power of faith.
The next moment.
The immortal waved his sleeves again, and the immortal beasts around him flew back one after another, surrounded him and bowed their heads respectfully, and then the immortal and the beasts gradually disappeared together.
The sky returned to calm again.
The rainstorm has long gone.
Only the remaining moisture on the ground indicated that what had happened before was not an illusion.
Most people in the county looked dazed, looking at each other.
My mind was greatly shaken.
Although the flood will not sweep across the county town, it will affect the lives of people in the county town, especially the mosquitoes and plagues after the disaster, as well as the rise in food prices, which can easily ruin a family that is already struggling to make ends meet.
"Food, river water... have all been blessed by the immortals..." After the county magistrate was shocked, all the immortal connections and even immortality that came with the immortals disappeared after the immortals displayed such terrible means.
But he thought that even the meat of a pig demon could cure diseases, let alone the food and river water blessed by the immortals, even if the river water would lose its effect after a week.
The only pity is that the evil monster as big as a mountain was completely killed by the immortal, without even a trace of flesh and blood left.
The county magistrate was extremely distressed. His first reaction was not to report the immortal and what he said, but to stand up and say, "Come here, gather people to go to Zhaojia Village immediately."
He must control these two good things.
It was still several hours before dawn. People in the surrounding villages were cold, tired and exhausted, but their spirits were extremely excited. They lit fires for lighting, ran to the fields through the mud, and started crying and laughing again.
"Food, lots of food."
"We won't be starving this year. We can finally have enough to eat!"
Even if the villagers are very skilled in tending the crops, they cannot make the crops in their fields fruitful, with the grains so full that they seem to be hanging down.
In addition to paying the land tax this year, there will be enough food left for food to feed and clothe people.
The villagers couldn't help but kowtow again in the direction where the immortal disappeared. All this the other party did almost saved their lives.
Zhaojia Village.
All the villagers were crying and laughing in the fields, but a few of them suddenly noticed something and shouted, "Look over there."
They looked up in confusion, and their expressions suddenly became strange.
In a field full of fruits, the fields of several families were empty, with the sparse crops lying limply on the ground, and it was obvious that they could not be saved.
The Zhao family members were covered in wounds and did not come over.
All one could hear were these villagers shouting and crying, going from ecstasy to disbelief and then to collapse.
“Why are my fields the only ones without food? This isn’t fair – there must be something wrong.”
"My God, you forgot about us!"
They cried and shouted, and their shrill voices were heard by the Zhao family. They had a bad feeling in their hearts and could only call their neighbors to come and ask what happened.
The village chief was terrified and said, "Cover their mouths quickly! After offending a monster king, are you going to offend the immortal now?!"
The surrounding villagers quickly covered the mouths of these people and became angry as well.
The immortal is so good.
It must be all these people's fault!
The villagers were unable to make a sound and their eyes were filled with pain and despair. When they thought about the punishment they would continue to receive from the Monster King tomorrow night, it seemed as if the end of this day could be seen at a glance.
Bai Yuan deliberately skipped those people and the Zhao family's fields.
He also holds a grudge.
The other side.
Zhao Ping'an and Lin Cuiniang watched as the divine beasts bowed respectfully to the immortal, and then blessed the crops and river water so that everyone could survive.
And then.
The immortal disappeared.
The couple stood there as if they had lost their souls, with smiles on their faces that looked as if they were about to cry at any moment.
Lin Cui Niang's tears fell one by one.
Brother Yuan has become an immortal.
Of course, her child will never come back.
Zhao Ping'an suppressed his sadness and comforted his wife: "Cui Niang, we should be happy for Yuan Ge'er. He is an immortal and will eliminate demons and save the world in the future."
When Liu Ermei heard this, her body shook violently.
All the doubts and puzzles were answered at this moment. No wonder the immortal was so special to Lin Cui Niang and Zhao Ping An.
No wonder...that immortal has white hair.
Because Brother Yuan is the immortal!
When this shocking thought flashed through his mind, a white light flashed, and a child with white hair and white eyes suddenly appeared in the open space, wearing simple patched clothes.
He tilted his head slightly, a little confused: "What's wrong with you?"
Lin Cui Niang's eyes suddenly widened, her brain almost went blank, and she subconsciously pushed Zhao Ping'an away, walked step by step to Bai Yuan, and slowly touched the child's face with trembling hands.
Cold but solid.
This was not an illusion, Yuan Ge'er was actually standing in front of her, and he had turned back into the child she was familiar with.
"Yuan, Yuan brother." Lin Cui Niang burst into tears and suddenly hugged the child in her arms, crying and laughing: "Mother thought she would never see you again."
Bai Yuan felt the hot tears on his shoulders, and slowly hugged this weak but loving human being back, saying softly, "No, in this world, I will always protect you."
Until the couple died.
Humans return the love, and he will protect that love.
Liu Ermei was also moved by this scene, her eyes reddened, and she subconsciously hugged her child.
Wait until the couple calms down.
Lin Cui Niang asked in a dreamy and dazed tone: "That immortal just now...was it Yuan Ge'er?"
Liu Ermei felt uneasy when she heard this, fearing that she would hear something she shouldn't hear.
Before she could suggest taking the child back to the house, Bai Yuan replied: "Well, that was my immortal body, and I am now a human body."
The three of them seemed to understand.
Lin Cui Niang asked nervously again: "Then Brother Yuan, where are we going next?"
She did not forget what Yuan Ge'er had said before about leaving the village.
Bai Yuan said: "Wait."
The couple did not ask any more questions. As mortals, they thought it was best not to know too much about being a fairy. But when they thought that their child was actually a fairy, they were shocked.
The couple tried hard to suppress their smiles, their souls almost flew away with joy.
The other side.
The villagers of Zhaojia Village came back from the fields and made a big circle to the river. Looking at the sparkling river water, many people did not dare to get close.
But everyone knows that after a flood, there is a risk of mosquitoes and plague.
So every household carefully bowed to the river again and again, and then scooped a bucket of water with a wooden bucket with awe, and washed their bodies with the water when they got home.
After crying and making a fuss, the villagers followed these people to the river. They were also afraid of getting sick and dying, so after hesitating for a long time, they finally approached the river cautiously.
They tried to reach out and put their hands into the river.
A flash of white light directly bounced these people out. They staggered to the ground, their faces instantly turning pale.
The thing I was most worried about happened.
It turned out that the immortal really hated them. Not only did the crops in the fields fail, but even the blessed river water could not be touched.
"Why……"
Their faces were pale and almost desperate.
The other villagers were frightened by what they saw and couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing. Some also suspected that the reason why the immortal disliked these people might be related to Yuan Ge'er.
The Zhao family members were also carried over. When they heard this, they were excited, anxious and angry: "That is a disaster star who colluded with monsters. How could the immortal be willing to make the decision for Brother Yuan?"
Immortals specialize in killing monsters, and Yuan Ge'er is both a disaster star and a monster!
Everyone was suddenly speechless.
Several other villagers suddenly felt hatred towards Yuan Ge'er. They blamed that disaster star for everything, otherwise how could they have fallen to this point.
Since the immortals don't want them to get close to the sacred river, wouldn't it be the same if they just steal the sacred river water that others have scooped up?
Thinking of this, one of the villagers suddenly rushed out and snatched the wooden barrel from one of the women. The water inside was rippling and flashing with a faint light.
The villagers were suddenly overjoyed and hurriedly lifted the wooden barrel to their heads and poured it out.
Seeing this, other villagers rushed over to stop them.
But the next moment, everyone stopped and watched the cold river water turn into turbid water the moment it fell.
The man suddenly became dirty, but he no longer cared about that. He kept scooping the remaining clear water in the bucket. As soon as he scooped out a part, it instantly turned into muddy river water.
"How could this happen? Why not?"
The other party was mad and desperate, and cried unwillingly: "This is not fair - I didn't do anything."
The villagers present watched this scene with mixed feelings.
The village chief sighed and signaled everyone to go about their business and not gather here to disturb others.
then.
The village chief took his son to the foot of the mountain to find Lin Cuiniang and Zhao Pingan, and told them to hurry to the river to fetch water, and then use the money they had to buy some food to store.
Food prices will certainly rise in the coming days.
People from the surrounding villages and even from the county would gather by the river, and it might not be possible to grab a spot.
After Lin Cui Niang and Zhao Ping An learned the purpose of the visit, they thanked the village chief repeatedly.
Bai Yuan also reminded the other party: "Try not to sell the food so early, and don't be afraid of being forced to buy or sell."
The village chief was stunned and shook his head with amusement.
A child, even if he is a monster, can he be more knowledgeable than me, the village chief who has lived for decades?
Lin Cuiniang and Zhao Ping'an immediately looked at their children with shining eyes.
He is truly worthy of being their child.
The two men hurriedly said, "Village Chief, you have to believe what Brother Yuan said and don't sell the grain so early. Anyone who dares to force a sale will definitely be punished."
Liu Ermei also nodded.
The village chief was even more helpless: "..."
Brother Yuan is not an immortal, how can he understand what immortals are thinking?
