However, after Xu Xian and the Dragon King of the Rivers were captured by the Golden-Armored General, Bai Suzhen was indeed a little worried, but after all, she had only met Xu Xian once and was not very familiar with him, so she did not take any action.

However, Xiaoqing, who was beside her, was curious about the dispute between Xu Xian and the Dragon King. She took advantage of her sister's inattention and quietly dived into the water. She saw the anxious wife of the Dragon King and learned the truth of the matter from her conversation with a Yaksha.

It turned out that the people of Luoshui Town did not offer as much tribute to the Dragon King Temple as they did to the Guanyin Temple, which angered the Dragon King. Not a drop of rain fell in a year, forcing many people in Luoshui Town to leave their homes.

When the scholar named Xu learned about this, he came to argue with the Dragon King.

The two of them had a disagreement and started fighting, which led to the battle that everyone just saw.

After hearing this news, Xiaoqing's impression of Xu Xian changed greatly. At the same time, she was extremely angry at the Dragon King's behavior.

While the Dragon King's wife was talking to his subordinates in the Dragon Palace, the usually reckless Xiaoqing decided to teach the old Dragon King a lesson. She sneaked into the palace and stole the rain-making talisman on the table.

When Xiaoqing returned to her sister, she immediately told her everything.

When Bai Suzhen learned the truth, she was both happy and worried. She was happy that she had a good vision and that Xu Xian was indeed a good man. But she was worried about the people in Luoshui Town and Xiaoqing stealing the rain-making talisman.

Xiaoqing, on the other hand, was somewhat disapproving of this.

She said that the old Dragon King and Xu Xian had been captured by the golden-armored general, and she didn't know whether they could survive tonight, but no matter what, the matter of Luoshui Town could not be delayed any longer.

Since the Dragon King does not show up, it would be better for them to take the rain-making talisman and make it rain themselves, which would also be a great merit.

Bai Suzhen pondered for a moment and felt that Xiaoqing's words made sense. However, she had an appointment with Guanyin Bodhisattva today. If she rushed to Luoshui Town because it rained, she would miss the chance to be enlightened by the Bodhisattva and become an immortal. Wouldn't she have to wait for hundreds of years again?

After struggling for a long time, the kind-hearted Bai Suzhen finally gritted her teeth and made a decision.

So, she and Xiaoqing took the rain-making talisman and left more than half a step away, heading towards Luoshui Town.

On the other side, the old Dragon King who survived by chance returned to the underwater palace and saw the Dragon King’s wife with a look of surprise on her face.

After exchanging pleasantries, the couple then had the Dragon King inform them of the mysterious immortal's warnings, saying that they must go to Luoshui Town to make rain tonight.

The lady breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked her husband to get the rain-making talisman.

But at this moment, the couple was shocked to find that the rain-control talisman had disappeared.

The Dragon King was both shocked and angry, and he quickly sent the Yaksha to the Dragon Palace to mobilize people. Then the couple went into battle together, scraping the ground three feet high to find the talisman.

But unfortunately, until the middle of the night, the Dragon King was unable to find the rain-making talisman at the bottom of the river.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the Dragon King was anxious, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and move half a step away, rushing to Luoshui Town alone.

Without the rain-making talisman, there would be no help from the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning, but it didn't matter. As long as he put all his strength into it and tried his best to make it rain, he could still complete the rainfall target set by the Jade Emperor on time.

When he arrived at Luoshui Town, the Dragon King was shocked and angry to find that it had already started raining there.

Dark clouds rolled in the sky and thunder flashed, and the figures of Lei Gong and Dian Mu could be vaguely seen in the clouds.

And under the dark clouds, there were two graceful figures, one blue and one white, standing in the clouds. The one in the white figure was holding in his hand the rain-making talisman that had disappeared!

Seeing this, the Dragon King knew that his rain-making talisman had been stolen by the two little snakes.

It would have been bad enough if they had stolen the talisman, but they even went so far as to run to Luoshui Town and secretly made it rain without knowing the Jade Emperor's order.

Now it is raining at the wrong time, and the amount of rain is also wrong. If that mysterious immortal finds out, won't he capture him and bring him back to the tower, skin him, pull out his tendons, and eat his dragon flesh together with that golden-armored general?

Thinking of this, the Dragon King was filled with shock and anger, and he immediately transformed himself, revealing his true form, and rushed into the sky, wanting to capture the two little thieves and bring them before the immortal to defend himself.

Bai Suzhen and her sister were already guilty of their crimes, and when they saw the Dragon King coming in a rage, their momentum weakened a bit.

Coupled with the real dragon's blood suppression of the snake demon, the two women combined could only barely fight the enraged black dragon to a draw.

One dragon and two snakes were fighting in the sky, but the people of Luoshui Town below suffered.

At first, rain fell in Luoshui Town and the people were cheering, but they soon found something was wrong.

After all, Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing were outsiders and temporary workers at best. They only knew that the rain-making talisman could command the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Lightning, but they didn't know that every time the talisman was lit, it would rain one foot more.

Now, Bai Suzhen has displayed the talisman at least seven times, and the amount of rain that has fallen has more than doubled the target given by the Jade Emperor.

Under such circumstances, the rainstorm quickly turned into a disaster. The originally dry Luoshui Town turned into a water town. The water on the streets was even higher than the ankles of adult men, and it was getting worse and worse.

Seeing this, Bai Suzhen knew that she had caused trouble, so she hurriedly talked to the Dragon King during the fight, trying to stop the fighting, stop the rain and save people.

But for the Dragon King, he had already missed the time for rain. He could still fool the Jade Emperor by asking someone to intercede for him, but the mysterious immortal and the golden-armored general who were more than half a step away were not so easy to talk to.

Therefore, the Dragon King was only thinking about how to capture the two women, explain his grievances, and save his life, and he had no intention of paying attention to the Luoshui Town below.

No matter what Bai Suzhen said, the Dragon King turned a deaf ear and kept attacking the two women.

At this moment, Xu Xian, who had just sent a message to remind his master to be wary of Du Qian, hurried over. Seeing that the originally dry Luoshui Town was about to turn from one extreme to another, and seeing a dragon and two snakes fighting in the sky, he immediately became furious.

Because of the preconceived bad impression, Xu Xian subconsciously put all the faults on the Dragon King. He flew up and joined the battle, helping Bai Suzhen and her sister fight against the black dragon.

Xu Xian was able to beat the Black Dragon violently, and with the help of the two sisters Bai Suzhen, he soon gained the upper hand.

But at this time, the battle situation became chaotic again, because a bald monk wearing a Jinlan cassock and holding a nine-ring staff also flew into the sky and chose the Dragon King's camp without hesitation.

There is no doubt that the monk who is qualified to join the battle is Fahai from Jinshan Temple.

Fahai has always hated evil and regarded demons as monsters. When he saw heavy rain in Luoshui Town and two snake spirits holding rain-making talismans, he naturally had a preconceived notion that it was demons that were causing chaos in the world.

So he flew up in anger and chose to help the Dragon King, trying to subdue the two snake spirits.

Just like that, the sky above Luoshui Town became a chaotic battlefield between one dragon, two snakes and two men.

…

…

More than half a step away, in the Divine Prison Tower, Du Qian frowned as he stared at the battle scene in the golden light mirror below the hall.

After a moment, he turned his head and looked at Guanyin Bodhisattva expressionlessly and said, "Bodhisattva, is this the enlightenment you mentioned?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva chanted a Buddhist name and said softly: "I only secretly guided the green snake to know the truth. The subsequent developments were all their own fate. I was also a little caught off guard..."

Unexpected?

Du Qian remained noncommittal, thinking to himself, if I didn’t know the plot, I would have believed it!

In the original story, Xiaoqing also stole the rain-making talisman and went to make rain with Bai Suzhen. As a result, heavy rain caused a disaster. Bai Suzhen and her sister had to join forces with Fahai to stop the rain, and begged Guanyin for help.

After this incident, Bai Suzhen missed the chance to become an immortal and could only take over the main task of "collecting eight tears from the world" from Guanyin. Then the touching story between her and Xu Xian happened.

But in this world, due to the influence of the time traveler, Xu Xian became a chivalrous hero with both martial arts and supernatural powers.

He intervened in the matter earlier than Bai Suzhen and her sister, forcing the Dragon King to show up in Banbuduo.

If Guanyin had not taken such unnecessary action, the Dragon King would have certainly followed her orders and there would have been no further disturbances in the rainfall.

Now, Bai Suzhen's sisters have intervened and caused a disaster, making the plot chaotic.

But no matter how confusing the plot is, there are two key nodes that still happen just like in the original book.

One is the encounter between Xu Xian and Bai Suzhen, and the other is Bai Suzhen's big mistake. In order to become an immortal, she had to step into the mortal world...

Thinking of this, Du Qian couldn't help but suspect that Guanyin deliberately wanted to get the plot back on track.

If this is true, then there might really be a secret script in Buddhism, and the ending of this script might be the classic ending of White Snake being imprisoned in Leifeng Pagoda forever!

After all, Bai Suzhen is not Tang Sanzang. The only benefit that Buddhism can get from her is this Buddhist story that has been passed down through the ages and, to some extent, can even be compared with Journey to the West in terms of popularity.

Some people may wonder, isn’t Buddhism the villain in this story?

In fact, before the book "The Legend of the Righteous Demon" was written in the Qing Dynasty, White Snake was the villain, and Fahai and Buddhism were both upright figures. Fahai was imprisoned in Leifeng Pagoda forever not because he did not understand love, but because Xu Xian asked Fahai to do so.

Of course, the above are just stories that are circulated among the people.

At least in this world, Bai Suzhen is indeed a kind-hearted monster.

Du Qian only suspected that the Buddhist sect intended to distort the facts to gain fame, but he had no evidence.

At this time, Guanyin Bodhisattva chanted a Buddhist name and said softly: "The gods are fighting, and the people are innocent. Since this matter was caused by me, it will naturally end with me."

"If you have nothing else to do, I will take my leave!"

As he spoke, Guanyin Bodhisattva clasped his hands together, bowed his head slightly, and then floated away.

Du Qian looked at the back of Guanyin Bodhisattva riding the lotus platform away, pondered for a moment, and said: "Brother Yi, if I ask you to leave half a step and go to Luoshui Town in person, what will you do?"

Yi Jiu said without hesitation: "Of course I will do as you say."

Du Qian asked: "What if there is half a step more?"

Yi Jiu smiled and said, "Don't worry, Immortal. I will send a message to my two brothers and ask them to take charge of the God Prison Tower for me."

Du Qian nodded and said, "That's good. You go to Luoshui Town in person and keep an eye on Xu Xian for me. If there are any more troubles, as long as there is no danger to his life, do not move."

"I obey your command!"

Yi Jiu bowed respectfully, then hesitated and said, "What about you, Immortal?"

Du Qian turned around and said softly, "I have to go see that Master Zishan."
