Chapter 54: Cloud Immortal
On the street full of shops, the bosses, shopkeepers, and clerks of various grain merchants' shops all gathered together.
The streets in Yunbi County are only so long. As soon as the news came to the city, everyone knew about it, and the most anxious ones were those closely related to rice grains.
Especially early in the morning, they had just lost the grain in the warehouse and were so anxious that they could not sit still after hearing the news.
The owner of Donglai Grain Store stood on the street and shouted excitedly: "Where did that Taoist get the rice? Our rice disappeared last night, and today he just happened to be giving out porridge and grain outside. How could there be such a coincidence?"
"
The shopkeeper on the side covered his face and howled: "That must be our rice, our rice!"
Everyone's hearts were on fire, and they kept stamping their feet anxiously: "Where did all our rice go? It turns out that the demon has taken it away!"
Someone immediately suggested: "Let's go out of the city quickly to stop that man. We must not let him give away all our rice."
Many people in Yunbi County know how powerful those strangers are: "The guy who took away all our rice in one night must be a stranger. He is not easy to mess with! And there are so many refugees outside the city, where can we go?"
You can beat him!"
"No matter how powerful you are, even if you are a god, you have to be reasonable, right? Those are our wealth and life, and our whole family depends on this." After saying this, the owner of Donglai Grain Store hurriedly came to the court.
Rush outside.
"Wait for me, let's go together."
A group of grain merchants, gentry and shopkeepers rushed out of the city.
They were usually so pampered that they ran out of breath, but now they were trying their best to save their own food.
But they were running out of breath, when a group of people arrived outside the north of the city.
The large group and long queue of refugees receiving porridge and food supplies have become sparse, and most of them have dispersed.
I saw that in every household, everyone was holding grains and smiling happily. With this rice, they could survive the most difficult period.
On the contrary, the faces of these grain merchants and gentry were so ugly that they screamed as if the sky had fallen.
As if they had exploded to the limit, they crowded inside, howling at the same time.
"Get out of the way, get out of my way."
"My rice! My rice!"
"This is my rice!"
"Our family's entire family's fortune is tied up with it."
"Master Tao! Master Tao! Don't do it, don't do it again!" The owner of the Donglai Grain Store, who rushed to the front, grabbed the hem of his brocade clothes with one hand and raised his other hand high, shouting towards the porridge shed.
At this moment, there was only the last thin man left in front of the Taoist, and the mountain of grain that was originally stored in Jun Yun's body was completely empty.
The last grain of rice fell and dripped into the pocketed clothes. The white grain shone brighter than gold in the sun.
"Put it down, put it down! This is my rice!"
The owner of Donglai Grain Store cried loudly and squeezed inside. He rushed over and tried to hug the man's feet, but the man jumped away.
The boss immediately looked at the Taoist priest and wanted to hug the Taoist priest's waist with sadness and anger.
"Give me back my rice! Give me back my rice!"
But I saw the wind suddenly blowing up, and the clouds and mist spread hundreds of meters.
The owner of Donglai Grain Store made a mistake again and jumped directly into the fog.
The owner of Donglai Grain Store was at a loss and didn't understand what was happening. When he raised his head, he saw clouds of clouds piling up in the sky.
But the Taoist just now rose up on the clouds and wind, and soared upward toward the sky thousands of miles away.
The Taoist sat cross-legged on top of the clouds, with clouds of light covering his body, just like the golden light of gods and Buddhas hovering behind his head.
The light even fell from the clouds, shining on the entire Yunbi County.
"immortal……"
"God."
"It's over... it's over... it's all over..."
The owners, shopkeepers, and clerks of the grain store were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground. They didn't expect that the person they chased after them to beg for grain was really a god.
And more refugees knelt on the ground, chanting various slogans, thanking the gods for rescuing them.
Many people in the city also looked out, shouting one by one: "Jun Yun has come down to earth, Lord Yun has come down to earth."
The waiter at Yunjian Restaurant and the heroes who were serving porridge together looked at the gods above the clouds and felt as if they were in a dream.
Inside and outside the city, there are various forms of living beings.
All living beings and gods in the eyes of the world are all different.
The fairy on the cloud looked down at everything, and finally laughed and walked away.
The clouds and mist gathered, the cloud light gradually faded, everything disappeared above the clouds, and followed the wind and clouds.
At this time, the magistrate of Yunbi County also arrived. The head of the Sun family was accompanied by Master Wutong. They used their own network to intimidate Magistrate Zheng, saying that the people who gave porridge outside the city were thieves.
The law forced the county magistrate to arrest him immediately.
However, Magistrate Zheng and his servants had been walking around a lot along the way, and they just came now, which meant they were letting loose. When they arrived, they happened to see this scene.
Looking at the sky from a distance, Master Wutong and the head of the Sun family looked pale.
Master Wutong also recognized this immortal, who was the Taoist riding a donkey who exposed him when he deceived Young Master Lin.
The head of the Sun family on the side did not expect that the thief he wanted to capture was such a person.
At this moment, cold sweat was pouring down his face. Fortunately, the county magistrate was trying to push him away. If he had come a step earlier, wouldn't he have bumped into this god? I was so frightened just thinking about it that my back was wet.
Looking back at Master Wutong next to him, the head of the Sun family suddenly felt that the existence of a master who he had always believed in and thought was no longer worth mentioning.
Compared with this god, the Wutong master next to him is like a clown.
"It turns out that Lord Yun came down to earth to save the people from the fire and water."
Magistrate Deng's eyes were filled with joy, and he looked at the clouds with longing.
"It's a pity that I came late and couldn't really meet the immortal. It would be nice to even have a word with him!"
Magistrate Deng led his people to the porridge shed. At this moment, everything was empty. Only the mist and haze left after the immortal flew away in the clouds. He could only sigh.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, the bag that had been spitting out fire and used as a seat by the immortal suddenly moved.
The sound startled the people surrounding the porridge shed, but it also attracted their attention.
Immediately afterwards, a ray of fire was seen escaping, and the fire stretched out a trace through the air and followed the clouds.
When everyone stepped forward to take a look, they only saw a stack of banknotes in the open mouth of the bag.
"Bank notes?"
"Was it left by an immortal?"
"Why are there banknotes in it?"
County Magistrate Deng took it up and counted it, and estimated that the rice grains reported lost by many grain merchants today were exactly the same as the price of rice, one tael is not too much, but one tael is too much.
Everyone looked at each other.
"It turns out to be food and money." Magistrate Deng suddenly realized what the immortal meant.
Looking back at the grain merchants and shopkeepers.
"You hoard things and do nothing to save them. Although they don't violate the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, don't they violate moral principles and people's hearts?"
"Fortunately, the immortals are merciful. Although they took your food to help the victims, they didn't take your food in vain."
"Come to the county government later and I will distribute it one by one according to the amount of rice you have lost."
Magistrate Deng said meaningfully: "I hope you will do more good deeds in the future. If you do evil again, I'm afraid retribution will really come."
Although they did not make a fortune from this natural disaster as they had thought before, they did not lose money and sold at a fair price.
Compared with losing the wealth accumulated over half a lifetime or even all the wealth, this is already an extremely good result.
Many grain store owners and shopkeepers were overjoyed.
"sure!"
"I will never dare to do such a thing again."
"There is a god at the top of your head. This time we really know it." The owner of Donglai Grain Store was panting the most at this moment. He felt that his whole body was exhausted. He didn't know whether he was scared or tired.
At this time, the Lin family also rushed over.
Lin Zhiya led a group of servants and ran at the front, hurried out of the city to help the gods.
Watching the cloud light above my head dissipate, I sighed.
"Sigh, what a pity!"
"I came a step too late and didn't see the gods!"
Lowering his head, he happened to see Master Wutong next to the head of the Sun family.
Chapter completed!
