Chapter 20 It’s reasonable for me, with white hair and white eyes, to become an immortal, right?
The villagers knelt down and kowtowed, with a look of panic on their faces: "Sir, I am here to offer a plan that will surely make the immortal treat the county magistrate differently."
Bai Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, and his spiritual sense saw the appearance of the villager through a tree. He felt enlightened but not surprised.
It’s Zhao Pingshun.
Bai Yuan carefully recalled his original body's memory. The other party disappeared for several hours the day after the flood. The next day, the county magistrate came with a group of people.
The original body was so frightened that he didn't notice this at all.
Bai Yuan now has some understanding of the human imperial examination system. Most students, in addition to relying on their knowledge, also want to make a name for themselves.
Brother Lin is not that talented.
Zhao Pingshun might have been worried that the original body's reputation as a disaster star would affect his children's imperial examinations, so he simply informed the county magistrate of the original body's existence.
In order to get promoted and please his superiors, the county magistrate would inevitably capture the original person.
As a result, Zhao Pingshun's family will be treated differently by the county magistrate, and their lives will only get better and better in the future.
Unexpectedly, the original body's parents loved their child more than their own lives, and the county magistrate was furious and burned the original body's family to death.
It is not difficult to guess that Zhao Pingshun's family certainly did not gain any benefits later, and might even have been angered by the county magistrate.
But the lives of the original family can never be brought back.
Bai Yuan watched Zhao Pingshun coldly as he entered the house, and immediately said that his nephew was a monster, and that many people in the village had been harmed by monsters and were worse than dead.
Zhao Pingshun added: "The immortal was busy eliminating the big monster that broke through the seal, and had no time to take care of the other small monsters. In addition, everyone in the village was protecting the monster. The immortal may have taken this into consideration and did not take action to eliminate the monster."
What happened makes perfect sense.
And he really thought so in his heart, but he didn't dare to confront the disaster star directly. He rolled his eyes and thought of the county magistrate, asking him to send someone to deal with the disaster star.
There is a fairy beast in that river.
It would be even better if the disaster star could call out the monster king as well, so that the immortal could kill all the monsters at the same time. Wouldn't their family no longer have to suffer the punishment of drowning at night?
The more I think about it, the better this idea seems.
The county magistrate was delighted to hear this. “The immortal is kind-hearted and does not want to harm the people, but I am the people’s parent, so I naturally have the right to deal with the monster.”
By then, the immortal's impression of him will definitely change.
He paced back and forth, suppressing his excitement. It would be best if this disaster could be executed in front of all the people.
With so many people testifying for him, no one can take away his merits.
Zhao Pingshun said worriedly: "That monster is very strong. You'd better take people to the foot of the mountain to capture the child."
The county magistrate didn't care and just thought that the man was as cowardly as a mouse.
He has so many sword-carrying officers and the fairy beast on his side. A mere five-year-old child, even if he is very strong, is not enough to prove his strength.
The county magistrate gathered his men and asked several runners to go to the river to call all the people to the foot of the mountain, while he could not wait to take his men to catch the disaster.
The group walked towards the village in a mighty procession. The people of Zhaojia Village were puzzled by this and followed them from a distance.
Soon, some villagers' expressions changed.
This road clearly leads to the mountain, which happens to be where Yuan Ge'er and his family are temporarily staying.
This county magistrate - could he be looking for Brother Yuan?
The village chief and the villagers were feeling very conflicted at the moment. From the beginning until now, the monster king had never attacked anyone except the Zhao family and those few villagers.
It's obvious that this family just wants to live a peaceful and stable life.
But it is a monster after all.
Who knows if the Monster King will suddenly change his face one day and attack the villagers.
The villagers hesitated for a few seconds and decided to follow.
At the foot of the mountain.
Lin Cui Niang and Zhao Ping An were busy packing up their things. Bai Yuan, who was sitting in the room, suddenly said, "Someone will come over to cause trouble soon."
The couple was stunned when they heard this and immediately became furious.
Their brother Yuan eliminated the demon and saved people, but someone still dared to come and cause trouble?
The couple quickly called Liu Ermei and their daughter into the house. They took out knives and stood at the door with a threatening look on their faces.
After a while.
A large group of people gradually appeared in the distance. The person leading them was wearing a red official uniform. It was obvious that he was the county magistrate. He was followed by a group of runners.
When the couple heard Zhao Ermei say that the county magistrate was coming, they originally wanted to go over to take a look. However, after hearing Bai Yuan's retelling that the county magistrate was bullying people by the river, they immediately felt a great resentment towards him.
The couple looked at each other, shocked and confused.
——Could it be that the county magistrate is here to capture the monster king?
The county magistrate walked to the house at the foot of the mountain, ordered the guards to kick open the fence door, and said in a stern voice: "You are so bold and unruly people, do you know that harboring a little monster is a capital crime? The immortals have mercy on the people, but you are ungrateful. Aren't you repaying kindness with hatred?"
The couple was furious again.
The term "little monster" clearly refers to his own brother Yuan.
The village chief felt uneasy when he heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Sir, please allow me to report that this Yuan brother is only a five-year-old child, with a good and sensible temperament, and has never hurt anyone."
Seeing this, other villagers came out one after another to explain the situation.
The county magistrate was furious: "Well, I have long known that your village has colluded with the monster. You turned a blind eye to the crisis faced by the Zhao family and those villagers, which is an even greater crime."
Villagers: “???”
Who colluded with the monsters?
The village chief vaguely guessed something. The county magistrate had just arrived, so how could he know about Yuan Ge'er and the Monster King? It was obvious that someone had secretly found the county magistrate.
The whole village was implicated as a result.
At this moment, the people living by the river also came over one after another. After hearing what was told by the people around them, they all showed expressions of surprise and sudden realization.
Aren’t these couple the ones who sold the pig monster meat a few times before?
Could it be that the one who killed the pig demon was the little demon that the county magistrate mentioned? From what the village chief said, this little demon actually recognized mortals as his parents?
Lin Cui Niang was so angry that her eyes almost turned red. This scene almost reminded her of the helplessness and despair she felt when she was surrounded by villagers five years ago. "If anyone dares to touch my child, I will fight them to the death."
The county magistrate sneered: "You two are asking for your own death. Come, arrest these two and the little monster immediately, and take them to the bank of the Immortal River and execute them there."
He turned to look at the crowd again and said, "The monster king also persecuted these villagers. I hope the people can explain the matter to me."
The Zhao family and those villagers had all come. They were making pitiful expressions, and with all the injuries on their bodies, they looked really pitiful.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you.
Some people also felt that something was wrong. If this monster had harmed people, would this family and other villagers really harbor the monster?
Moreover, since the immortal had killed the evil demon, how could he let the demon king go? Instead, he blessed the river in Zhaojia Village.
The village chief and others turned pale and moved their lips slightly, but they didn't know how to plead for this family.
Even though the Monster King is the king of monsters, how could he possibly protect Yuan Ge'er?
Later, they too will be punished by the county magistrate.
The Zhao family and several villagers were also standing by, with malicious yet pleased expressions on their faces.
That disaster star, the monster king, and everyone in the village must die!
The officers responded: “Yes!”
He immediately stepped forward to capture the couple. Just as his hand was about to touch their arms, he caught a glimpse of a child walking out of the house. The child was wearing simple, patched clothes, but very clean clothes.
The people around them exclaimed in surprise.
This child... actually has a pair of white eyes, long white hair, skin so white that it looks like ice jade in the sun, and a calm and extraordinary temperament.
Subconsciously, they thought of the immortal from last night, who also had such white hair, and his immortal aura was ethereal and not to be approached rashly.
No matter how you look at it, it's different from that monster.
The county magistrate was also surprised for a moment, and then he scolded: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and tie up this family!"
The officer came to his senses and continued to reach out to arrest the couple.
Bai Yuan said coldly: "No one can hurt my parents."
The county magistrate was just about to mock the child for his naivety and stupidity, but the next second, the sky and the earth suddenly dimmed, countless snowflakes fell, and the mythical beasts they had seen before appeared on the ground.
These mythical beasts were no longer as majestic and kind as before, but were roaring and screaming at them angrily.
The white-haired child gradually emitted a glow, and his face could no longer be seen. His clothes vaguely revealed a white robe embroidered with intricate patterns, and surrounded by icicles. These obvious features were exactly the same as those of the immortal last night.
Even the most insensitive people realized something.
The child who was treated as a monster by the county magistrate and was taken to the river to be executed on the spot turned out to be the immortal who turned the tide, killed the evil monster and saved everyone last night.
The sky became even darker, with several rumbling thunders.
——God is angry.
Everyone was shocked and frightened, and they knelt down involuntarily: "Immortal, Immortal!"
The village chief and other villagers who had spoken for Bai Yuan stared blankly at Brother Yuan who was surrounded by light.
Brother Yuan is an immortal? !
Shouldn’t he be a monster?
The county magistrate and the Zhao family all turned pale, in disbelief and horror.
Zhao Pingshun's eyes almost burst open, and he collapsed and shouted, "This is impossible!"
A disaster star, that can only be a disaster star that was used by their family to suck blood, how could it be an immortal.
Zhao Fu was so shocked and furious that he couldn't help spitting blood and stared at Brother Yuan who was standing there.
None of this is an illusion.
Those divine beasts surrounded Yuan Ge'er in a protective and submissive manner.
This alone was enough to prove that he was the immortal from last night. What on earth had they missed that they actually drove away an immortal as a disaster and signed a letter of severance.
Even if Lin'er really gets the top score in the imperial examination, he can never compare to Yuan'er.
Immortal fate...has nothing to do with them from now on.
Zhao Fu vomited blood again.
The young couple completely ignored the Zhao family, and turned to look at Bai Yuan, and couldn't help but open their mouths: "!"
How did Brother Yuan reveal his identity as an immortal?
When the village chief saw this, he suddenly felt a little comforted. It seemed that the couple didn't know that their child was an immortal.
All the villagers were shocked, but suddenly they reacted.
No wonder Zhaojia Village was the least affected by the disaster, no wonder the monster king regarded Yuan Ge'er as a good friend, and no wonder the immortal chose to bless the river of Zhaojia Village.
Just because... the immortal is Brother Yuan.
They couldn't help but tremble. How could they have the honor to talk to the immortal and live in the same village with him?
In a trance, they subconsciously looked at the county magistrate. The other party had completely lost his previous majestic and arrogant appearance. He was so frightened by the phenomena of heaven and earth caused by the anger of the immortal that he sat on the ground. When they thought that the other party was going to execute the immortal and his parents, they couldn't help but gasp in shock.
How dare the other party do that?
