Chapter 593 Xu Hei Travels Around the World

At noon, the sun was blazing, and Xu Hei was sweating profusely.

Two young children, a boy and a girl, were about the same age, kicking a ball as they passed through the fields. As they walked, the ball flew high and landed on Xu Hei's watermelon field.

Xu Hei looked at the two people and suddenly thought of Wang Xiaoniu and his sister.

"Look, that's Uncle Xu who just moved in!" The girl pointed at Xu Hei and said.

"Well, I heard that Uncle Xu is rich. He actually spent 100 taels to buy a piece of land. This made the Li family very happy. They moved directly to the county town." The boy whispered.

After that, he waved to Xu Hei and called "Uncle Xu" as a greeting.

Xu Hei forced out a smile and nodded as a response.

In his impression, the boy was called Tiedan and the girl was called Erya. They were both children from the Gao family next door.

"By the way, Uncle Xu, the day after tomorrow is the Spring Equinox. We plan to go to worship the mountain god. Do you want to come with us?" Tiedan picked up the ball and said excitedly.

Worshiping the mountain god is a custom of mortals, and you can pray for good weather and good harvest every year.

When the mountain god was mentioned, the shadow of a dog suddenly popped up in Xu Hei's mind.

"Okay." Xu Hei was about to nod.

In the distance, a farmer suddenly rushed out, dragged Tiedan and Erya behind, and took them back. Before leaving, he smiled at Xu Hei and said, "Brother Xu, our children are not sensible, please don't mind."

Xu Hei shook his head: "It doesn't matter."

The farmer grabbed the two of them, walked hurriedly, and left without looking back.

Xu Hei fell into silence.

Xu Hei knew some of the thoughts of mortals at a glance. The look in the eyes of the Gao family man looking at him was full of strong vigilance and alertness.

Nowadays, with war and chaos, and the devil is rampant, it is normal to be wary of outsiders. Xu Hei didn't know what he did wrong, so he could only shake his head and continue sowing.

For two consecutive days, the Gao family children never appeared again.

Three days later, it was the Spring Equinox.

The residents of the town went out one after another and rushed to the mountain temple outside the city. They prepared cakes, flowers, incense and candles, cleaned the temple, and used pigs, cows and sheep as sacrifices to pray for good weather this year.

It was not until the evening that the memorial ceremony ended.

At night, Xu Hei appeared at the door of the mountain temple and walked in. No one noticed his presence.

The mountain god in the temple had kind eyes, a smile, and a cane in his hand. He was the image of a human land god.

If he was truly transformed into a mortal, Xu Hei would naturally have to worship in order to pray for a good watermelon harvest.

But Xu Hei couldn't do it!

He couldn't do it, he just couldn't do it, there was no reason! He couldn't kneel down to worship a so-called god in the image of a human!

On the contrary, a question came to his mind. Will the gods believed by mortals really show up?

An idea came to Xu Hei's mind. Should he do an experiment?

Xu Hei smiled slightly, raised his hand and waved it. The statue of the mountain god was immediately reorganized and turned into a ferocious snake.

Of course, ferocious is only from a human perspective. In Xu Hei's eyes, it is extremely kind.

Then, Xu Hei cast a spell and created a trick to make people think that the mountain god is still the original image, but in fact, it has turned into a snake.

"Let you worship a snake quietly and see if it can bless you with good weather and good harvests." Xu Hei said.

His experiment was just to verify some guesses.

The mountain god is just the first step. He plans to try the statues of gods and Buddhas in Buddhism, Taoism, etc. to see what will happen if they are replaced with snakes.

Xu Hei was born with a rebellious nature. Why can the so-called gods only be human? Even the Dragon King in the Dragon King Temple is a human.

Of course, this is just an experiment. If something goes wrong, Xu Hei will stop immediately.

After doing this, Xu Hei went back to farm.

In the following days, people often went to worship in the mountain temple. But no one noticed that the statue had already turned into a snake. What they saw was just a trick.

…………

In the spring of the 33rd year of the Jin Dynasty, there was a severe drought.

This drought lasted from the spring equinox to the summer solstice. There was only a light rain in the sky, and then there was no more water.

In the afternoon, the sun was blazing.

Xu Hei stood in the field, looking at the dead watermelon seedlings, his face calm, without a ripple.

In the town, there was a dead silence, and sometimes a few sad cries were heard. Because of the long drought, the rice planted by many farmers died, and they were destined to have no harvest.

Xu Hei didn't know whether it was a coincidence or it was really related to him. Anyway, this happened.

This long drought lasted until the end of summer.

Finally, Jin State sent a Jindan-stage cultivator to investigate the situation. Through the borrowed Demon Detector, he finally discovered that an inconspicuous mountain temple on the border had been tampered with.

And the instigator, Xu Hei, had already quietly escaped, left Jin State, and entered the next country.

…………

There are many such small countries in the western part of the Central Plains Shenzhou.

Since Xu Hei was leaving, it was naturally impossible for him to stay in one place for too long. He would run away at most in a year.

The second country, Zhao State. This time, Xu Hei learned his lesson. He was no longer as generous as before, and he would pay a hundred taels at a time. Instead, he pretended to be a refugee who had fled from famine, bargained, and bought a thatched cottage with a copper coin.

This made the villagers less vigilant.

Xu Hei no longer farmed. He became a cook in the village, helping people chop wood and fetch water, and survived by eating at hundreds of families.

But because of his arrogant temperament or the inadvertently revealed aura of kingship, Xu Hei was recognized by a passing monk and finally left.

Being a mortal is really hard for him.

As for the plans in Xu Hei's mind, replacing the statue with a pillar, Xu Hei did not implement them. The reason is simple, there is a god above your head.

For things that he cannot understand, Xu Hei still stays away from them.

In fact, with Xu Hei's current cultivation, he can completely control the weather of a small country by himself, and he can also become a god in the eyes of mortals.

But he is really afraid of angering some existences, causing the backlash of the laws of heaven, and making himself look bad.

"All the gods and Buddhas, one day, I, Xu, will definitely go up and see what is playing tricks."

Xu He looked up at the sky, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he thought to himself, "But before that, I'd better keep a low profile."

Although Xu Hei has become a mortal along the way, he is still a mortal snake in essence.

Some of his actions are incompatible with others.

However, as Xu Hei passes through more and more countries, his experience has also become richer. At least, he will no longer be exposed when communicating with others.

That day, Xu Hei turned into a warrior among mortals and was hired by the escort agency to escort a batch of goods.

The destination happened to be the country of Ma in the east, and Xu Hei was on the way.
