Chapter 1651 Our Own People

Jiang Hao did have something important to do when he asked for leave. Yesterday, he received a message from Li Lin, the carp spirit, saying that he would pray to the heavens to be conferred the title of river god tomorrow, and hoped that Mr. Jiang would go to watch the ceremony.

As the first friend in this world, Jiang Hao decided to go and show his support.

This morning, Jiang Hao asked for leave, put on a mask, and came to the Qiantang River by burrowing into the earth. He found that Li Lin had been waiting there for a long time.

Jiang Hao appeared, and Li Lin saluted with a happy face.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang. It has been half a month since we last met." Li Lin said respectfully.

"Trouble you to wait for me here." Jiang Hao said with a smile.

"It's my duty. I will cast the water avoidance spell on Mr. Jiang."

Jiang Hao had an extra bubble on his body, and the two of them went into the water together and soon came to Li Lin's water palace.

Walking into the hall, Jiang Hao found that in addition to Li Lin's wives and concubines, there were three strangers in the hall.

Well, Jiang Hao felt their breath.

They should be three monsters.

Li Lin quickly introduced everyone: "This is Mr. Jiang I told you about, my lifesaver. If it weren't for Mr. Jiang, I would have died a long time ago."

"Mr. Jiang, these are some of my friends. Let me introduce them to you. This is Miss Lu, who is practicing in Daqi Mountain."

Jiang Hao looked at the woman in front of him.

She had long, fine black hair with a seven-treasure coral hairpin in her hair. She wore a light pink dress that dragged on the ground. Her slender waist was bound by a cloud belt and was very slender.

She had a beautiful face, a pair of single phoenix eyes that were shrewd, and a smile that revealed a bunch of dimples, which made her look very cute.

The woman took a half step forward and saluted Jiang Hao slightly sideways with an elegant movement.

"Lu Mengyao greets Mr. Jiang."

Not only is she good-looking, but her voice is also crisp and pleasant.

The monsters who have cultivated into spirits like to take one of the characters in their original names as their surnames. For example, many foxes have the surname Hu. This Miss Lu is most likely a deer who has cultivated into spirits.

"Hello, Miss Mengyao." Jiang Hao smiled and bowed in return.

Li Lin continued to introduce a middle-aged man to the other person.

"This is Cangtao, who lives by the river. We are neighbors. To be honest with you, Mr. Jiang, he is an otter who has cultivated into a spirit. Haha." Li Lin said with a smile.

"Cangtao greets Mr. Jiang."

After Cangtao finished speaking, he said to Li Lin next to him unhappily: "You are lucky. Don't forget that otters eat fish. If you had fallen into my hands more than a thousand years ago, you would have been eaten by me. There would be no Li Lin today."

From the tone, it is clear that the two have a close relationship and often joke.

"Mr. Jiang, don't pay attention to him. I will introduce you to this one, Xiongming, my good friend. I have known him for more than 500 years."

Li Lin pointed to the last one and introduced him.

This Xiongming was dressed in a black robe, tall and strong, with red cheeks like Guan Gong. He bowed to Jiang Hao and said, "Meet Mr. Jiang, thank you Mr. Jiang for saving Li Lin. Let me introduce myself. I am a rooster who has cultivated into a spirit."

It turned out to be a big rooster.

In the world of Liaozhai, Jiang Hao had a golden rooster as his subordinate, who was named a mountain god by him. Now he saw a rooster again.

From his current appearance, Jiang Hao could even guess what his true form looked like, which should be a majestic rooster with black feathers and a red face.

The name Xiongming was indeed very appropriate.

These three people were all Jindan cultivators. Jiang Hao thought that in the world of Liaozhai, Jindan was already the peak of cultivators, and there were only a few dozen in total, but in the world of Green Snake, it was very common, and any few of them were Jindan monsters.

Li Lin had even broken through to the Yuanying realm of human cultivators.

Jiang Hao looked at the three monsters, and the three monsters Lu Mengyao were also looking at Jiang Hao. What surprised the three was that they did not see a trace of spiritual energy from Jiang Hao.

Is this just a mortal?

But they knew that Mr. Jiang was definitely not a mortal.

Li Lin had already told them that Mr. Jiang was a cultivator.

Being able to completely hide his own cultivation, the three people felt that Jiang Hao was unfathomable.

The time had come.

Prepare to ask for the title of god.

A huge altar has been set up in the cave courtyard, with grand offerings on the table, candles lit on both sides, and a large incense burner in the middle.

Li Lin is dressed neatly, and the others stand on both sides.

"I wish my husband to be deified and fulfill his lifelong wish..."

"I wish Brother Li to be deified and enjoy the blessings of immortality from now on."

Everyone wished together.

Li Lin came on stage, first respectfully lit a stick of incense, the smoke rose up, then knelt down and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times, and took out a letter from his arms to request a deification.

Jiang Hao listened to Li Lin's letter of deification, which was extremely sincere and humble. The demon cultivator had no foundation, and hoped to move the heaven with sincerity. If he really asked for a deification, he could enjoy the blessing of immortality, painlessness and disaster.

After reading it, Li Lin lit the decree, which soon turned into a cloud of smoke, and floated to the top of the cave with the cigarette.

Everyone looked at the smoke with expectation, hoping to send their prayers to heaven.

But when the smoke floated to the top of the cave, it stopped there and did not rise for a long time, which made Li Lin's wife and several friends anxious.

"Why not rise?"

"Is it because of the cave barrier?"

"It shouldn't be. Even if you pray in the Nine Netherworld, the heavens can receive it, not to mention a cave restriction."

Li Lin was even more nervous, fearing that there would be any mistakes. Becoming a river god is his greatest wish.

At this moment, he was extremely nervous and kept praying in his heart.

"Pop~!"

The smoke suddenly exploded and dissipated at the top of the cave.

Everyone was stunned.

"Did it go up?"

"I don't know."

"Maybe it's done?"

But at this moment, Li Lin's face turned ugly, because at the moment when the ball of cigarettes wrapped with the imperial edict exploded, a kind of enlightenment suddenly arose in his heart.

Failed!

It's not that there's something wrong with the prayer, it's that the upper realm doesn't accept it at all and just scatters it.

Once the millennium of expectation was shattered, Li Lin felt extremely sad.

"Brother Li, what's going on?" Xiong Ming asked.

Li Lin looked ugly and said in a deep voice: "It failed. I can feel that the upper world is not willing to accept my prayer at all."

"What should we do?" the eldest lady asked anxiously.

"Why don't you please try again?" Lu Mengyao said in a tentative tone.

Li Lin gritted his teeth, ordered someone to bring pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote another prayer. This time his words were more respectful and humble.

It is not easy to cultivate for thousands of years. I am willing to worship as a small god in the heaven. Under the control of heaven, I will work diligently and never dare to slack off.

Same process.

Burn incense.

pray.

Send prayers.

But the smoke floated to the top of the cave and was stopped again. This time it broke faster than last time, and it exploded within a few seconds.

Failed again.

Li Lin walked down the altar dejectedly, his steps staggering a little.

His quest to become a god failed, his wish was shattered, and he was still a wild goblin.

I don't know when I met a monk who came under the banner of slaying demons and killed him.

Even if you continue to practice cautiously, you will have to go through several catastrophes in the future. Each time you will end up with ninety-nine deaths, and each time will be more serious. If you are not careful, you will end up in ashes.

How lucky I am to be able to survive the disaster ahead.

The atmosphere was very depressing.

Except for Jiang Hao, everyone here is a demon cultivator. Thinking of his own fate, he felt equally sad.

Li Lin looked at his wives and said, "Ladies, if we can't get the title now, I'm afraid we need to move away from Qiantang Water Mansion and find a quiet and remote place to practice in peace."

Several wives and concubines came forward and surrounded Li Lin, all looking sad.

"No matter where the master goes, we sisters will follow him together. Even if there are many hardships in the future, we will die together without regrets."

As he spoke, someone began to sob softly.

Otter shook his head helplessly.

Xiong Ming's face turned even redder.

Miss Deer thought about her future and felt sad.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Hao had the urge to slap his forehead.

As for that?

Jiang Hao said: "Li Lin, there is no need to be so depressed. You have lived for more than a thousand years. What else can't you think about? Besides, you don't have to die now. There are still 500 years until the next catastrophe. Five hundred years." , human beings have been born, aged, sick and died for several reincarnations.”

"Besides, this matter may not be without a turn."

Everyone looked at Jiang Hao. Li Lin looked at Jiang Hao and asked, "Mr. Jiang, is there anything else you can do?"

Jiang Hao didn't say whether there was any way.

"Let me ask you, have you ever done anything harmful to nature before?" Jiang Hao asked.

"Jueji no."

"I have never killed anyone in my life, and I have never done any evil. I still clean the rivers on weekdays. Every ten days, I go to the Qiantang River to take care of the people on the river bank for fear of being flooded. I have also rescued two people who fell into the water. "Li Lin said.

Jiang Hao believed that Li Lin was not lying, because Jiang Hao had seen Li Lin's aura before, and there was no evil spirit on his body, which meant that he had never killed anyone.

If so, it's not Li Lin's problem. Jiang Hao guessed something.

"Do you know why God rejected your bid to become a god?" Jiang Hao said.

Li Lin shook his head.

"Do you know, sir?"

Everyone else also looked at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao nodded slightly, "I can guess part of it. The biggest reason is probably you. It doesn't matter!"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

It doesn't matter!

But they are not fools. Having lived for more than a thousand years, they naturally immediately understood the meaning of Jiang Hao.

There are so many monsters in the world, how can you be a god if you want to?

Although becoming a minor god has many restrictions and restrictions, there are also many benefits. You can accumulate merit and live forever, and the heaven will protect you from causing catastrophes. It can be said that it is the biggest way out for the demon clan. No matter how you calculate it, it will be an excellent future.

Li Lin is just a wild monster. He hastily asked to be a god. Who cares about you?

The Qiantang River is a big river after all, so how could an unrelated person be made the river god so casually?

Wouldn’t it be nice to leave it to your own people?

Li Lin was not stupid, he was even very smart. He walked to Jiang Hao and bowed, "Can you please teach me, Mr. Jiang?"

Although Li Lin didn't dare to ask Jiang Hao about his origins, he could guess that he must have an extraordinary background. Since he said things were going to change, there must be a way.

Jiang Hao did not help Li Lin, and thought silently for a few seconds before he said: "I can help you write a letter asking for the imperial edict, but it is difficult to talk to outsiders. Let me ask you, are you willing to join me? Sect, be a mountain guardian beast."

The status of the mountain guardian beasts is not high. They are gatekeepers, mounts, and mountain guards. They are no different from boys and cannot be regarded as formal disciples.

But the demon clan has been in decline for countless years, and countless demon clans are now surviving in this way. Jiang Hao does not belittle him by letting Li Lin be the guardian beast.

Li Lin was also a decisive person. He only thought about it for a few seconds, lifted his robe, knelt directly in front of Jiang Hao, and said loudly:

"Li Lin is willing to join the sect and become a mountain-protecting beast."

Jiang Hao nodded,

"Okay, I will accept you as my master. We are an authentic Taoist sect. As for the name of the sect, I can't tell you yet. There are many reasons for it."

He is a disciple of Maoshan, but he is not the Maoshan of this world. Jiang Hao made up a teacher who was not there, and he made it up. He has no way to tell Li Lin the truth now.

"From now on, please call me Senior Brother." Jiang Hao said.

Li Lin knelt down, kowtowed respectfully, and called him senior brother.

"Get up, I'll help you ask for godhood."

Jiang Hao strode up to the altar, took out the yellow paper and cinnabar from the space, and began to write after a moment of reflection. Li Lin stood respectfully beside him, and soon a prayer was written. Jiang Hao put on three sticks of incense and picked up the prayer. Wen read aloud.

"Disciple Jiang Hao worships and prays:

Taishang Taoist Ancestor Lotus.

The Jade Emperor, the Great Heavenly Lord, the Xuanling Gao God, His Majesty the Jade Emperor.

Emperor Qin Guan.

Heavenly Master and True Lord.

Li Lin of the Qiantang Water Tribe, who has successfully cultivated and transformed into a golden dragon, entered our Taoist sect, cultivated his body, and helped the people. Today, he seeks the title of Qiantang River God from heaven. From now on, he will work conscientiously, move the clouds and spread rain, be sweet and moist at the right time, and protect the peace in all directions. . "

Li Lin, Li Lin's wife and concubines, the deer girl, the otter, and Xiong Ming who were present listened to the prayers and thought to themselves that Mr. Jiang's name was Jiang Hao.

Listening below, they were all shocked.

Look who Mr. Jiang is praying to?

The Supreme Taoist Patriarch, the Jade Emperor, the Qin Guan Emperor, and the Taoist Patriarch Zhang Tianshi.

The most important thing is his tone.

Li Lin's previous request for an imperial edict had a humble tone, but Mr. Jiang's prayer stated the facts openly and honestly.

This tone,

a!

It sounds like there is someone behind the scenes.

After reciting the edict, the prayer was waved in the hand, and the internal energy was activated and burned immediately, turning into a cloud of smoke, which floated to the top of the cave together with the cigarette.

Everyone looked at the smoke nervously, fearing that they would be blocked at the top of the cave like the last two times.

However, what they were worried about did not happen at all. After the blue smoke reached the top of the cave, it disappeared directly into the forbidden area without stopping at all.

"Ah, this is it, sent up?!"

"Of course, this is the prayer sent by Mr. Jiang."

"It's incomparable, it's really incomparable!"

Li Lin looked at the top of the cave nervously, feeling that time passed so slowly. He didn't know how long it had been before Jiang Hao suddenly felt something.

Brush~!

A golden light shone down from the top of the cave and hit Li Lin directly.

"Li Lin, kneel down and accept the order!"

Jiang Hao shouted to Li Lin.

Li Lin obeyed and quickly knelt down.

Not only him, but all the demons in the audience also knelt down because they felt great pressure in this golden light.

The golden light became more and more powerful, and Li Lin seemed to turn into a ball of light. Then the ball of light bloomed. People subconsciously squinted their eyes and saw that Li Lin's original clothes were suddenly replaced by an official robe.

"River God's official robe!"

Someone shouted in surprise.

They had all seen the previous Qiantang River God. Li Lin's clothes were exactly the same as the official uniform of the previous River God.

At this moment, something slowly flew in the golden light, and people immediately held their breath when they saw it.

Jade Seal!

It must be the Great Seal of the River God.

Li Lin knelt down and held up his hands. The Qiantang River Divine Seal fell into his palms and felt heavy in his hands. Li Lin was extremely excited as his wish finally came true.

After sending down the River God Seal, the golden light suddenly shrank and turned into a ball of light, and then swished into Li Lin's mind.

Li Lin was stunned at first, and then overjoyed.

"Senior brother, these are the commandments of heaven, the rules of the river god, and a technique called 'Nine Yang Golden Dragon Jue', which is suitable for me to practice after transforming into a golden dragon. This technique can directly lead to the path of immortality."

Li Lin said excitedly.

After getting over the excitement, he put away the River God Seal. Li Lin came to Jiang Hao again, knelt down and kowtowed again.

"Li Lin's deification this time is entirely due to my senior brother. Li Lin is deeply grateful. If my senior brother has any assignments in the future, please feel free to give me your instructions."

Jiang Hao smiled and helped Li Lin up.

"It doesn't have to be like this. You have joined the sect, and we will be our own people from now on."

The three demons Lu Mengyao, Chang Da, and Xiong Ming looked at Jiang Hao with extremely eager eyes. They also wanted to join the sect and become one of their own.

That is definitely a bright road.

The Mr. Jiang in front of me definitely has thick golden thighs.

PS: I am busy with work and my two mythical beasts at home are about to start school. I have been very busy these days, so please forgive me for not being able to guarantee updates.
