"Wow~"
This scene once again deeply shocked the people of Yucheng.
Only a very few people have seen the legend of the toad monster, and most people have only heard of it as a rumor.
Even when the riverbank broke, there was only water but no toads.
Today I saw that there really was such a huge toad monster in the water.
Not only is it big, it can also speak human language.
It is undoubtedly a monster.
At this moment, the people of Yucheng looked at Wang Tiezhu and Qin He as if they were looking at gods.
They summoned the toad demon that even wizards couldn't summon.
"I said I can do it." Wang Tiezhu looked at the wizard and others with a little pride.
It has been hiding under Qin He's wings, and now it has become a peerless demon with nearly four hundred years of Taoism.
Summoning something like the Toad Demon is just a matter of stepping on it.
At this moment, the faces of the wizard, the official, the county magistrate and others turned pale and blue like a dyeing factory, with disbelief and horror in their hearts. They thought they had met a master today.
"You bold toad monster, how dare you break the dam and flood the area, causing disaster? What crime should you be punished for?" Wang Tiezhu frowned and looked at the toad monster.
The toad demon's head sank, his eyes filled with fear. He hurriedly defended himself, "I'm innocent. Ever since I was enlightened by Taoist Lingyun about the way to practice, I've followed his teachings and devoted myself to cultivation. I've never harmed the people on the shore. Even the cave where I hibernate is deliberately away from the riverbank. The dam breach in Yucheng was not my fault. Your Excellency will see clearly."
"Are you serious?" Qin He asked.
"Every word must be true. If there is even a trace of falsehood, God will strike you with lightning."
Qin He nodded: "I believe you."
"Then, Mr. Wizard, it's your turn to explain the dam breach." Wang Tiezhu tilted his head and looked at the wizard.
The wizard secretly cried out that this was not good, and instinctively wanted to defend himself, but he suddenly lost control of his mouth and blurted out: "The river burst the dam, and I sent people to blow it up. If I don't bring disaster to the people, who will be willing to worship us?"
Mantra!
"Wow..."
"Huh? What?"
"Did the wizard send someone to blow it up?"
"..."
In one word, the faces of the people in Yucheng, who had originally been numb, all turned into anger.
During the ten years of sacrifice, many families sold their fields and land, and even their children.
How many people have fled this place, their whereabouts unknown.
And this is not even the climax.
Wang Tiezhu looked at the official again and said, "Official Fan, what about you? How did you get any benefits?"
Wang Yuanwai's mouth sank. "The river burst its banks, destroyed houses, and shared the sacrifices to the river gods. Their purpose was to impoverish the people of Yucheng so I could take advantage of the situation and buy their land at a low price, making them my tenants for generations to come."
Next it was the county magistrate’s turn.
The county magistrate also said to the ladle, "I am only sharing the profit from the sacrifice to the river god. There is no silver in the silver box that was thrown into the water. There is lead on the top and mud on the bottom. The silver has been divided among us long ago."
"So this was all a scam?"
"Yes, it's a scam."
"A man cannot be rich without external wealth, and a horse cannot be fat without night grass."
"What about the river girl?"
"It's a means of suppressing those who disobey. Anyone who dares to explode the thorns will be drowned."
"So that's how it is. His tactics are quite good, clever and ruthless." Wang Tiezhu applauded and then looked at the Toad Demon, saying, "You've taken the blame for so many things, and you don't know anything about it?"
The toad swallowed his saliva like a human being. He wanted to defend himself, but after hearing the self-exposure of the wizard, the official, and the official, he was afraid and could only say honestly, "I dare not deceive the master. I do know some things, but the peach flood season is the time when I hibernate and have not yet woken up, so I ignored it. I am guilty."
Qin He spat out a mouthful of melon seed shells and said with a smile, "You're quite the coward. You just said that you were instructed by Taoist Lingyun?"
"Yes, more than three hundred years ago, Taoist Lingyun passed by here and gave me some guidance. It's just that my aptitude is too poor, and I still haven't transformed." The toad demon nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, causing waves of water to splash.
"Okay, we have sorted out our doubts, now it's your turn." Wang Tiezhu grinned, scanned the entire audience, and finally paused on the toad demon.
The meaning is very clear: seek revenge when there is injustice, and seek revenge when there is hatred.
The Toad Demon was the first to receive the hint. He locked his gaze with the wizard and the others, gritting his teeth and saying, "This demon has no grudges against you in the recent past, nor any hatred in the past. How dare you put the blame on me? Prepare to die!"
As soon as it finished speaking, it stuck out its long tongue, which turned into a flash of lightning and stuck to the wizard's forehead.
Then it retracted its tongue, and the wizard groaned and was pulled up into the air, instantly disappearing into the toad monster's mouth.
He couldn't even scream.
When the county magistrate and the official saw this, they were immediately terrified. They instinctively howled and ran away.
However, even the wizards who had mastered the art of Taoism were unable to escape, let alone them who were powerless.
