Chapter 733 Common Sense
"I'm going out for a while." Xue Nianjiao stood up and walked into the rain.
The community god moved his feet and asked hurriedly, "When will you be back?"
Xue Nianjiao turned around and comforted him, "Don't worry, I'll be back at night."
The She Shen stopped again and said, "Be careful."
Xue Nianjiao was walking further and further away, and her voice was unclear in the rain.
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to you in Wu Ning."
The community god also knew that Wu Ning had a fox fairy, who was a real fairy, not a so-called "fairy".
The City God of Wuning County attaches great importance to this. Therefore, when the community gods gather, he will especially emphasize to them that unless there are foxes committing crimes, they should not touch this matter.
There are many people in the countryside who believe in the Goddess of Mount Tai. The Goddess of Mount Tai regards foxes as divine messengers, and foxes are also symbols of good luck.
When Xue Nianjiao came to see him, he originally thought that he didn't need one more person to share the incense, but after trying, he found that having one more fox really made a difference.
This fox is eloquent, smart and capable, and is more useful than the original temple keeper. The original temple keeper would only clean the temple of the community god during festivals. Because he has no spiritual qualifications, if you want to talk to him, you have to specifically send him a dream, and he might forget it when he wakes up.
The land temple is usually deserted, but at least the foxes serve it every day. Even if there is no incense, burning a few pine branches instead is better than leaving it deserted.
The thoughts of the community god gradually dissipated in the sound of rain.
Xue Nianjiao did not block the rain, allowing it to fall on her body, soaking the dust and dirt on her body.
In order to sort out the earth's energy, he spent the whole night digging holes in the fields, and now his fluffy and beautiful fur has lost its luster.
From the village to the county town, Xue Nianjiao shook her body to get rid of the mud and water, then performed the shape-shifting technique, came to a house, jumped onto the wall and watched quietly.
In the room, the sound of a loom could be heard and a woman humming a little tune. The shuttle moved like a fish, making each shuttle sound.
There was a boy squatting at the door, writing and drawing with a cloth dipped in water, his face serious and earnest.
Xue Nianjiao looked for a while, then jumped down from the wall and left quietly.
This time, I went to Fox Courtyard.
"Cause a disaster?" Kang Wen was slightly surprised when he heard Xue Nianjiao's words.
Xue Nianjiao nodded and said, "Although the old man is dull, he has lived a long time and seen a lot of things. Although he can't explain the reasons, he rarely makes mistakes."
Kang Wen said: "Last time, the Master said that when yin and yang are different, disasters will occur frequently. This must not be empty talk."
Xue Nianjiao said: "What worries me is that I don't know what disaster or catastrophe will happen, and how to deal with it."
Kang Wen said: "I asked the Master, he said that although the great disaster has not yet come, the small disasters are coming one after another, so we should deal with them normally and have no regrets."
"The teacher is also playing guessing games." Xue Nianjiao was helpless.
"I'm not being cryptic. I don't have the great magical power to sort out the yin and yang. I can only do some small repairs. It's even more so in your hands."
"Master!"
Xue Nianjiao laughed awkwardly and said, "Why is the Master here?"
Gong Mengbi said: "You are saying bad things about me here. If I don't defend myself, I will be wronged for nothing."
Xue Nianjiao said: "I didn't say anything bad about the Master, I just couldn't figure it out."
Gong Mengbi said, "As for disasters, one is the disaster caused by the conflict between yin and yang and the disorder of qi, just like the black dragon was blocked and the water vapor could not move forward, just like this year the water and fire invaded each other and the plum rain did not stop. The other is the anomaly caused by the disorder of qi."
"In the eyes of heaven and earth, these anomalies are all minor. For example, the continuous plum rains gave rise to some poisonous insects, ghosts, and evil spirits. For example, the abnormal thoughts of people gave rise to some ghosts, demons, and evil gods."
"There is a limit to what we can do about disasters. Even if the gods in heaven want to take care of it, it will take time. We can take care of unusual things, but we still need to be flexible. You will be stationed in the village and stay with the gods. If you encounter unusual things, find the appropriate way to deal with them."
"But this is not the most important thing. Do you know what is the most important thing?"
"Please teach me, Master."
Gong Mengbi patted his head and said, "The most important thing is to stick to common sense. Common sense means being upright and not biased, the harmony of yin and yang, doing the job well, and doing what should be done. In this way, even if an accident happens, you will not let your conscience down, nor will you put yourself in danger."
"If we uphold common sense, we uphold the order of yin and yang. Disasters and anomalies are minor problems in terms of common sense."
Xue Nianjiao only felt that there were many hidden meanings in Gong Mengbi's words, and he could not fully understand them, but at least he knew how to deal with it now.
Xue Nianjiao said goodbye, "Master, I have to go back."
Gong Mengbi reminded: "Don't forget to worship the moon just because the dark clouds have blocked the moon. If you push away the dark clouds, the moon is still up there."
Xue Nianjiao responded, turned around and walked down the mountain.
Kang Wen could sometimes follow Gong Mengbi's train of thought, so he asked one more question: "Master Gong, does that mean the plum rain will continue for a while?"
Gong Mengbi said: "It will take at least another twenty days before the conflict between water and fire subsides."
"Will this hurt He?"
"It's inevitable."
Kang Wen sighed and didn't know what to say.
She couldn't even get rid of the essence of water and grain, let alone the mundane world. In the past few years, it seemed that she had few good times.
Sooner or later, there will be trouble.
She felt this vaguely in her heart.
However, when Xue Nianjiao was returning to the village, the god of the community looked serious, grabbed him and pulled him to the edge of the field.
Xue Nianjiao slipped out of his hand and asked, "What's wrong?"
The community god did not say anything, and the two of them walked to the edge of the field in the wind and rain.
The fields had been drained of water once, but they were still nearly full.
"Look." said the community god.
Xue Nianjiao followed his gaze and saw that there was almost no movement in the paddy field except for the wind causing wrinkles in the paddy field.
But the community god did not move, and Xue Nianjiao did not move either. The two of them seemed to have merged into the wind and rain and turned into two pieces of stone.
It was at this time that strange noises were heard coming from the paddy fields.
It seemed that there were loaches, eels and the like swimming in the water, but the sounds were so dense that it was impossible to imagine how many things were there.
Xue Nianjiao looked at the community god. The community god raised his hand and held up three fingers. He then tightened one finger, and then another. As the third finger tightened, he slammed the ground with his palm.
The ground's air violently trembled and erupted upwards, and all the mud and water in the paddy fields flew into the sky.
Xue Nianjiao looked up and saw countless fish- and insect-like, finger-sized mollusks wriggling in the air in panic in the muddy water.
Xue Nianjiao's hair stood up, and as he exhaled and spoke, countless grey rays shot out and hit the bodies of those strange insects.
Then the mud and water fell back into the fields, and the dead insects gradually floated on the water surface.
