Chapter 521 God is God After All
"Don't exaggerate too much." Xia Wange rubbed his nose and said in a subtle way, "Just be realistic."
"You talk to her yourself." Zhou Qingze was speechless.
"You are a few years older than me, how come you are still so ignorant?" Xia Wan Ge pointed, "Can I say this? Do I have the nerve to do it?"
"You..." Zhou Qingze was so choked up when he heard this.
When the guide girl and Bai Yuyao came back from picking mushrooms, they saw Xia Wange leaning there lazily drinking water. After chatting with Lu Qiu, Bai Yuyao breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm glad you're okay. She saw Xia Wange looked very tired before and thought something had happened.
"Hi~ Are you back?" Xia Wange saw the two of them and waved her hand with a smile, "Now that you're back, shall we set off?"
"Don't you need to rest for a while?" Bai Yuyao trotted over and stared at Xia Wange carefully for a while.
"No, there's just too much moss on this mountain. It's hard to walk. Just take a rest." Xia Wange stood up and shouted, "Some gods only know how to control people! They don't even know how to help people!"
After saying that, Xia Wange made a surprised expression, "Oh, I forgot, I don't believe in you, nor do I worship you, you have no right to control me~"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding trees began to tremble. It was obvious that the mountain god was still watching them and was very angry. However, after the previous fight, he would not act rashly.
The few people didn't delay and after tidying up a little, they walked down the mountain again.
"You are so amazing!" Bai Yuyao was filled with emotion when she saw Xia Wange come down the mountain alive and kicking after the confrontation with the mountain god. "I really didn't expect you to be so amazing! If you are so amazing, why aren't you more well-known outside?"
"It's just my normal performance." Xia Wange said modestly, "It's just that outsiders always have a lot of misunderstandings about me. You know, after all, I'm not a person who likes to publicize."
"But you can't let others misunderstand you like this." Bai Yuyao blinked.
"It's okay." Xia Wange looked away. "I'm used to it. Misunderstandings are really okay. You don't have to explain anything to others for me, really."
"I'm not explaining anything. When you hear people talking about you in the future, just tell them what happened today." Bai Yuyao said seriously, "These are all real things that happened. I won't exaggerate. I'm just being honest."
"No, no, no, no need." Xia Wange waved her hand. "Facts speak louder than words. The truth will come to light one day, and my abilities will naturally be known to the public."
"Then..." Bai Yuyao stared at Xia Wange for a moment, seeing her embarrassment. "Since you want this, I won't help you promote in the future? I won't get involved when I hear others talking about you? After all, I still have to follow your wishes."
Xia Wange, who was just being polite, choked for a moment.
"But then again." She changed the subject, "I think what you said before is very right. Good wine needs no bush. I really need a righteous cultivator like you to speak up for me, so that no one will misunderstand my strength and then accidentally cause trouble for me. This way, both sides can avoid conflict, don't you think?"
After saying that, Xia Wange sighed, "In fact, sometimes when others know that I am capable, they won't offend me, don't you think?"
"Yes, I think so too, just like other people know that my senior brother is very powerful, so they are all polite to him." Bai Yuyao nodded, "So you just lack people in the circle who speak for you."
"You are such a nice person." Xia Wan Ge said sincerely, "You really are a good person."
Hearing the compliment, Bai Yuyao felt a little embarrassed, "I'm just telling the truth, you don't have to praise me, I..."
Zhou Qingze couldn't listen any more.
"Come and stand next to me and help me count the copper coins to see if there are any missing." Zhou Qingze pulled Bai Yuyao away from Xia Wange.
"Ah? Why are we counting copper coins? Did you do divination just now? Are there any copper coins missing?" Bai Yuyao said, looking at the copper coins in his hand.
Zhou Qingze didn't say anything, just patted her shoulder.
This will save you from being sold out and having to help others count money.
After returning to the village, Xia Wange went back to her house under the pretext of getting something. As soon as she entered the room, she turned around and closed the door while checking the talisman paper pasted on the door. When she saw that it was not damaged and could still be used, she quickly covered her chest and coughed violently a few times.
"What's wrong?" Lu Qiu immediately supported her, "Are you feeling unwell?"
“Not really.” Xia Wange waved his hands and took a few deep breaths, but still felt a little uncomfortable. “It’s the aftereffect of the shock during the confrontation. I held it in all the way to prevent that mountain god from noticing.”
Along the way, Xia Wange always gave the Mountain God the impression of being calm and composed, as if she had not used up all her strength in her fight with the Mountain God. But in fact, only she knew all the difficulties.
When she was holding on, she bit the flesh in her mouth and she is still coughing. I guess that has had some impact, but overall she is fine and not injured.
"My mouth hurts a little." Xia Wange looked at the mirror. "I guess I'll have to cool the mushrooms down before eating them tonight. I hope I can scare the mountain god and let those souls go tonight."
When Lu Qiu heard Xia Wange's words, he felt both distressed and amused. He quickly poured her some water, then went out to buy a bottle of iced drink and brought it back for her to cool down.
"Can't I use my purple energy to draw the talisman?" Lu Qiu asked, "Or should I deal with it?"
Xia Wange took a few sips of ice water and shook his head. "It won't fight us easily. If it wants to delay, no one can stop it. When the souls of those three people are completely dissipated and there is no way to save them, then it will be meaningless even if we kill it. Even if we fight... the key now is not whether to fight or not, but to deal with a mountain god, the cost is very high."
"What's the price?"
Xia Wange thought for a moment and said, "It is a god, a god formed by the faith of several generations of villagers around it, but we are human beings after all."
How easy is it to kill a god?
Even if the gods are unfair, it is not easy to drag them into the judgment of heaven.
Lu Qiu was silent. It seemed that things were stuck in a vicious circle. He couldn't beat him, and he couldn't kill him. He could only wait for the mountain god to think clearly and release him...
"Let's go and check out the situation at those houses." Xia Wange said, "We have been in the room for too long, it will suspect that I am injured."
"Are you really okay?" Lu Qiu was a little worried.
