Chapter 210 [Can red envelopes be used like this? ]
"Yes, you said you are the real messenger of God, and you have the ability to make it rain."
The attendant beside the divine messenger retorted, "What's the use of thunder alone? Maybe they're using some charlatan's tricks to deceive people!"
Wen Qiao remained calm and confronted the people from the northern tribe.
She sent a message to Jiang Lili: [Lili, is the water ready?]
Jiang Lili was standing on the corridor in the backyard of the inn. After receiving the news from Wen Qiao, she turned her gaze to the rain falling from the sky.
Then click on the red envelope interface. If you cannot select the rainwater item to send the red envelope, you can only borrow the well water in the backyard.
After operating the red envelope interface, Jiang Lili was pleasantly surprised to find that the rain in the sky could be selected, but how to determine the range, time and intensity of the rainfall?
After carefully looking at the red envelope sending interface, Jiang Lili discovered that the unit of the red envelope amount column had changed from yuan to "seconds". Could it be that these seconds refer to the duration of rainfall?
Jiang Lili entered "3000", and a prompt appeared on the red envelope interface, saying that the maximum amount could not exceed two hundred, which was the same as the red envelope limit of 200 yuan!
She turned her gaze to the red envelope note column. The default note in this column has always been "Congratulations and get rich." Jiang Lili had never changed it. Now that she thought about it carefully, every function of the group chat interface had its mysteries!
Jiang Lili had a flash of inspiration. Could it be possible to determine the amount and intensity of rainfall by making a note?
So, Jiang Lili tried to enter "heavy rain within a five-meter radius" in the remarks column, and then clicked the "put money into the red envelope" button. The red envelope interface kept spinning, similar to the network loading interface. Jiang Lili guessed that it was collecting 200 seconds of rainwater.
After a while, the red envelope was successfully sent out!
Jiang Lili was delighted. Although there was a limit of one red envelope, it didn't matter. She could just send a few more!
When Wen Qiao read the message, the chat interface prompted: [The other party sent a normal red envelope.]
Wen Qiao: It’s stable!
The messengers and followers of the northern tribe thought that their words had stumped Wen Qiao when they saw that Wen Qiao just stared at them coldly without saying much after they asked him to pray for rain.
"Everyone saw it, right? I asked her to pray for rain, and she kept quiet."
The messenger of God held the reins on the horse tightly, a little afraid of another thunderclap out of nowhere.
His followers also tried to save the situation for him: "So, do you trust us, the northern tribe with a century of prestige in the Mi Kingdom, or do you trust a foreigner who just arrived at the tribe last night?"
Hesitation flashed across the faces of many people in the tribe. They were shaken, but thinking back to what Wen Qiao and Grandma Aji said, they realized that these people in the northern tribe had indeed done nothing good.
The moment Grandma Aji was protected by Wen Qiao, her heart had completely leaned towards Wen Qiao.
The chief noticed that although Wen Qiao was not as strong as himself, she had so much strength and her reaction speed was very fast, which was not inferior to the warriors and archers in their tribe.
It turns out that women can be so powerful!
She thought that it would only take a short while for her to capture the five people guarding the well with her group, and the women and children who stayed in the tribe were not that vulnerable.
The chief developed a kind of admiration and yearning for Wen Qiao. She subconsciously felt that if the shepherd god really had a mortal messenger, he should have the courage and aura of Wen Qiao.
At this moment when everyone is wavering, she, as the acting chief, needs to stabilize people's hearts.
The chief said, "Praying for rain can be successful with just a few words. It requires preparation and rituals. Since this girl who claims to be a divine messenger saved Grandma Aji and can also cause thunder, why not let her perform a rain-praying ritual? We can see if it works then and make a decision."
The messenger subconsciously wanted to refuse, but Granny Aji stopped him with one sentence: "If you don't allow it, it means you are afraid!"
With the words of the chief and Grandma Aji, many people calmed down.
Yes, since there are two "messengers of God", let's take a look at their strength and compare them to find out who is real and who is fake.
The envoy's eyes darkened, and murderous intent flashed in them: "Okay, let's perform the ritual tonight. Prepare the necessary supplies, still ten cows and ten sheep..."
Wen Qiao listened to the messenger of God listing a lot of required sacrifices as if he was reading out the menu.
The envoy adjusted his mask and added, "We also need fifty jars of freshly made wild fruit jam. Everyone in the tribe must participate in making the jam. This is how we can show our respect for the Shepherd God and make it easier for him to bless you. You two outsiders also need some."
Since there is no way to deceive these people, the only option is to kill them to silence them.
Requiring everyone in the tribe to participate in making jam is to delay time and keep them in the tribe.
He would ask for instructions from the tribe and send people to kill all the old, weak, women and children at night.
It seemed as if the people in the tribe had become accustomed to the rude requests of the envoys from the northern tribes. Upon hearing this, they just sighed and discussed which family's turn it was to contribute the sacrifice.
The chief walked up to Wen Qiao and asked, "Miss Wen, what do you need for the ritual? Bonfire, fruit, beef, mutton, wine? Let's go prepare them."
After the chief finished speaking, someone whispered, "Chief, I'm afraid we can't even gather enough offerings for a ritual for the northern tribe..."
The tribesmen showed embarrassed expressions on their faces and turned their eyes to Wen Qiao, hoping that they could tighten their belts and squeeze out what Wen Qiao needed.
Unexpectedly, Wen Qiao's words completely overturned their understanding: "A true envoy of God doesn't need these things, and would never make such a torturous request."
Wen Qiao said calmly, "There's no need to prepare for the ritual. It's not necessary."
After that, Wen Qiao stole a few moves from the radio gymnastics, then opened his arms and shouted to the sky with great momentum: "My Lord God, I am the messenger of God, please pray for rain and protection!"
After doing these actions and saying this silly line, Wen Qiao's embarrassment had reached its peak.
She could only keep hypnotizing herself. Ancient people would fall for this trick. As long as she didn't feel embarrassed, it was fine!
Then, Wen Qiao opened Jiang Lili's red envelope.
When everyone saw Wen Qiao's actions, they looked at each other in surprise. Is praying for rain really that simple?
Ge Zhu had heard that some people in the martial arts world had a unique skill called "ventriloquism", which allowed them to make sounds without moving their mouths. Could it be that Captain Wen was ventriloquist and had just imitated the sound of thunder, trying to delay time by playing tricks?
After all, there is no such thing as a messenger of God who can control thunder, lightning, weather, etc. If he is really that powerful, then why do we need emperors and kings?
It's easy to unify the world.
