Liu Daye went to the land temple to burn incense every day during this period. The verdict three days ago had a profound impact on him. Unlike Zheng Li, Liu Daye knew clearly that it was definitely not a "dream".
However, the incident did not become a big deal. Liu Yuanqi only informed a few elders in the village and Liu Daye's wife about the snake demon. Apart from that, the people in Daliao Village only knew that Liu Daye seemed to have encountered some wild beast in the mountains that day.
Because what Liu Yuanqi and his men told the outside world was that there were wild beasts and monsters in the mountains next to Daliushuang village. How could they dare to tell such a thing to others?
"Brother Liu, it's useless for you to burn incense and offer sacrifices to the God of Land every day." Fang Jian said to Liu Daye from the side.
Liu Daye turned his head and looked at Fang Jian and said, "What's wrong? The land god doesn't like it?"
Fang Jian smiled and said, "The Heavenly Law stipulates that all the gods in the Heavenly Palace can only enjoy offerings from the human world during the 'Eight Heavenly Festivals'. You are burning incense to offer sacrifices to the Earth God now, but he will not accept it, nor dare to accept it."
Hearing Fang Jian's words, Liu Daye was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise: "Xiao Fang, how do you know this? Is this true?"
Fang Jian smiled and said, "I've read the book, of course I saw it in the book. As for whether it's true or not, who knows?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Daye said immediately, "This may not be true, right? It's better to have more of this kind of thing. Even if it is true, the Earth God won't dare to accept it, but at least my intention has been conveyed."
Fang Jian smiled slightly upon hearing this and stopped trying to persuade him. This was a very common mentality among mortals.
Mortals don’t care whether you, the gods, accept incense or not. I will worship you anyway. Even if you don’t accept it, it’s not my fault. My heart is very pious.
Just as Liu Daye continued to burn incense and offer sacrifices, Fang Jian saw a flash of light in front of the land temple, and then two figures landed outside the temple.
One of them was a female cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, wearing a purple rhombus-shaped black gauze skirt, with a willow waist and a melon-shaped face. She was none other than the snake demon Jiang Lan.
The other one was a man in the Yangshen realm, wearing a three-color brocade robe, a golden flower crown on his head, with a strong back and a broad face. It seemed that this man was Jiang Lan's husband 'Xu Bao'.
Both of them used their magic power to hide their bodies, so even though they were right in front of him, Liu Daye did not see them.
It was Jiang Lan and her husband Xu Bao who saw Fang Jian. Xu Bao probably had heard from Jiang Lan about Fang Jian's "battle" with her that day, so he was very polite to Fang Jian.
Xu Bao and Jiang Lan both bowed to Fang Jian, and Fang Jian also bowed in return.
As for Liu Daye, who was burning incense below, Jiang Lan and Xu Bao showed deep hatred on their faces, but they did not do anything. Instead, they turned into a ray of light and flew into the land temple.
Fang Jian stood outside and watched with a smile on his face. Jiang Lan had already sent a letter to call her husband back. She probably came today to ask the land god to fulfill his promise of "returning to life".
Sure enough, half an hour after Liu Daye finished burning incense and said goodbye to Fang Jian and left, Jiang Lan and Xu Bao flew out of the land temple with solemn expressions. This time, the two did not even say hello to Fang Jian, and flew directly into Longying Mountain.
The land god Su Yan also flew out of the land temple right after them. He looked at the direction where Jiang Lan and Xu Bao left, frowning.
When Su Yan withdrew his gaze, he happened to meet Fang Jian's eyes. He then bowed to Fang Jian and said, "Daoyou, why don't you come sit in the abode for a while?"
Fang Jian pointed to Daliushan, which was not far away, and said, "I can't just disappear right now."
Su Yan nodded and said, "Then I'll go sit in your room. I think you don't mind, right?"
"Since the God of Land has come to visit my humble home, how can I object?" Fang Jian said with a smile.
Su Yan nodded and said, "Please wait a moment, fellow Daoist."
Then Su Yan turned around and flew back into the temple, and soon flew out again, "Fellow Daoist, please look." Su Yan stretched out his hand for Fang Jian to see. Fang Jian looked at his hand, and it turned out to be a box of spiritual tea leaves.
"The last time I went to Daoyou's house, I saw that there seemed to be no spiritual tea at home." Su Yan smiled and said, "This time I will prepare spiritual tea myself."
Fang Jian said, "I am very poor and cannot afford the spiritual tea. Since the Earth God has good tea, I will definitely take advantage of the Earth God's kindness today."
"You're joking, fellow Daoist." Su Yan shook his head and smiled.
Earthen walls, mud tiles, and a fenced courtyard—this is Fang Jian’s residence in Daliushuang.
In the main hall, Fang Jian and the land god Su Yan sat opposite each other in front of a brand new octagonal table. Su Yan was making tea in a clay pot on the table.
With the blessing of Su Yan's magic power, a flame was burning under the pottery jar, and the spring water in the pottery jar gradually began to boil.
"I'm in a difficult situation this time." Su Yan said to Fang Jian while making tea.
"Oh?" Fang Jian asked in surprise, "Is it about that snake demon?"
Su Yan nodded and said, "Master Zheng made a big promise to someone, but how can a land god like me, like me, bring someone back to life?"
"Jiang Lan's fellow Taoist has also returned. I'm sure you saw him just now." Su Yan said.
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Indeed, this person already has a faint immortal aura emanating from him. It seems that the day of his immortalization is not far away."
"That's the trouble." Su Yan said, "Just now, the two of them came to me and said the same thing: they want their son to come back to life, otherwise they will definitely kill Liu Daye to avenge his son."
Fang Jian asked, "Aren't they afraid of the laws of heaven?"
Su Yan said, "Jiang Lan's husband, Xu Bao, said that if his son couldn't return to the world of the living, even if he didn't become an immortal in this life, even if his soul was scattered, he would destroy the entire Daliao Village to bury his son."
