I am a living immortal.

"Hey!"

Su Mu sighed softly.

It seems I have to go to Yuannan.

.........

Xunyang Lake.

As the weather gradually turns cooler, more and more boats are fishing on the lake. However, this year's situation has made the fishermen who rely on Xunyang Lake for their livelihood very worried.

The lake was not calm, but they had to go out, otherwise the whole family would starve to death next year. They had been looking forward to this period of time.

“The wind is blowing!!!”

Loud reminders echoed across the lake.

The lake surface was stirred up by gusts of wind. Fishing boats needed superb skills to keep their balance in such waves, and the sound of water splashing against the hull became heavier and heavier.

Many people clung to the boat desperately. The difference in water level caused the entire boat to shake. Veins bulged on Yo's black skin, and desperate cries could be heard in his ears. These cries were still clear in the strong wind.

Everyone's heart sank. Faced with such a natural disaster, there was little the fishermen could do but leave it to fate.

I kept repeating it in my mind.

"Lake God bless you! Lake God bless you!!"

However, they did not know that the culprit behind this strong wind was the "Lake God" as they called him.

The old turtle at the bottom of the lake felt the sense of fulfillment brought by faith and laughed out loud. This scene was exactly the same as when Chu Wenyou saw the clam pearl.

The old turtle still retained a bit of clarity and knew that there was a long time to go. He stopped casting spells after the last huge wave smashed several fishing boats and drowned dozens of people.

The cold and lonely feeling of drowned figures sinking to the bottom of the lake.

It forms a sharp contrast with the golden old turtle at the bottom of the lake.

Feeling his faith growing stronger and stronger, the old turtle randomly picked out a few people with strong faith and threw them back to the shore.

After doing all this, he left with satisfaction. He felt that his influence on the lake was growing.

The remaining people drowned at the bottom of the lake.

On the lake, only a few fishing boats survived the disaster. After this storm, almost a quarter of the fishing boats disappeared.

There is no time to be sad, they have to seize every opportunity to fish, the stronger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish.

at the same time.

In Yuannan City, Su Mu rode a sheep into the city again.

The guards at the city gate were still alert, and the gate was already crowded with people. Only a scholar was seen reading a notice aloud, which aroused a lot of discussion.

"Is this the Lake Temple going to be built at the mouth of Xunyang Lake?"

"Of course. It's said that because the lake god hasn't been worshipped for a long time, the lake got out of control this time and many people died."

"No wonder. I was wondering why the fish in the market has been getting more and more expensive recently. It wasn't that exaggerated in previous years."

"It's said that building the temple this time will require a lot of people. The county magistrate, the Chu family, the Wang family, and the Lin family have all contributed a lot of money. They want to complete the Lake God Temple before the Cold Dew Festival so that we can have a good harvest this fishing season."

"Hanlu? Doesn't that mean there's only a month and a half left? Can we finish the repairs?"

“So we’re going to recruit a lot of people this time.”

"Recruit as many as you want and use as many as you want. There's no upper limit."

"Oh my god, how much money would that cost!"

"They have money, especially the Chu family. They sell clam pearls all the way to Huguan, and even to Wending. Those dignitaries heard that the clam pearl production this year is very small, so they placed orders in advance, and boxes of white silver were put into the warehouse."

"So rich." Many people said with envy, wishing they could replace him. Of course, it was just their imagination.

At this moment, a gorgeous carriage passed by the roadside. A middle-aged man in the carriage heard what was happening and cursed inwardly: "Chu Wenyou is so lucky. He was about to become a poor family, but silver fell from the sky and landed on his family."

"Do you think so?" A middle-aged man sitting in the carriage said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"Even if he has that ability, the Chu family wouldn't be so bad. Besides, Xunyang Lake is inherently changeable. It's just more severe this year." The middle-aged man immediately denied it, thinking it was just a pure coincidence.

"Lake God? Humph! This Chu Wenyou has no other abilities, but he made up some great stories."

Although the middle-aged man said this, his eyes were full of fear. Why didn't Chu Wenyou see it before? He seized the opportunity accurately and made a beautiful comeback.

Not only did he make a fortune and help the Chu family get back on track, he also captured Minyi, made a big show of himself in front of that group of untouchables, and curried favor with the county magistrate.

It's a great strategy that kills three birds with one stone.

However, this does not prevent them from selling the clam pearls at a high price. Who doesn't have clam pearls in stock? Although they don't have as many as the Chu family, they can still make a profit.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man felt better.

The carriage stopped in front of the Zhang family's gate. Seeing this, several servants immediately went to greet it. The person who got off the carriage was the second master of the Lin family. He was dressed in brocade clothes and held a green jade ring in his hand. Following him was his confidant. Although he was middle-aged, he did not look decadent at all. Instead, he had a kind of open and bold momentum.

The two entered the door one after the other.

Behind the carriage, Su Mu appeared in the air riding a goat. It seemed that the man-made disaster was referring to the Chu family.

"Chu family." He muttered to himself.

"It's really fate."

Suddenly.

Two huge figures came closer and closer, each step covering a long distance. However, no one around noticed their presence, and they arrived in front of Su Mu in an instant.

The figure, which was originally several feet tall, came in front of Su Mu and became the same height as him. He wore a tall crown and had disheveled hair. He looked very fierce and had a cold aura.

As soon as the two appeared, they were locked in a sharp aura. To avoid sudden death, they immediately bowed and introduced themselves, "Meet the Immortal Venerable, the Daily Patrol under the command of the Yuannan County City God."

After he finished speaking, the sharp edge disappeared.

If the two of them could sweat, they would be sweating profusely at this moment. They had reason to believe that if they were not on patrol, the sword light would cut through their bodies and kill them in the next second.

Not only is he an immortal, he is also a sword immortal.

"So it's the day patrol in person. Su is polite." Even though he looks scary, since the other party introduced himself and is a regular ghost messenger, Su Mu would not lose his manners.

The two of them waved their hands repeatedly: "We are not worthy of the Immortal Lord's respect."

"What's the matter with me?"

The two Sun Patrols replied respectfully, "The City God invites you to have a chat."

Oh~ What does the City God want from me? Could it be because of the impending disaster in Yuannan? It's very likely that the City God is the deity who protects the land and water. With Yuannan City about to encounter a catastrophe, he wouldn't just sit there and do nothing.

Seeing Su Mu thinking, the two day patrolmen remained silent.

"Since the City God has invited us, let's go."
