C2 Putting on a Show

What was going on? This grandma is lying to you! Jiang Wanbai thought.

The corner of Jiang Wanbai's mouth curled up slightly. She hated people like this who swindled others the most. See how I'll deal with you! Jiang Wanbai's brain was working really fast. Looking around at the drought, he knew these people were begging for rain, and she was obviously the sacrifice. She shouted loudly, "She's just pretending to be lying!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" The Goddess hated it the most when people said that she was playing tricks on them. She was so angry that she stomped her feet.

The result was a loud "boom". In the clear blue sky, a bolt of lightning struck the Goddess' feet. The Goddess was so frightened that she sat down on the ground and hurriedly retreated, but when she retreated, the bolt of lightning closed in on her, and only stopped after three consecutive strikes.

"You are trying to kill me! God can't take this anymore!" Jiang Wanbai wiped away the talisman that he had just drawn on his palm. His already pale face became even paler. However, she forced herself to sit on the ground with a pile of firewood behind her. She looked at the Goddess who was collapsed on the ground and said with a cold and stern voice.

The villagers were stunned by this scene. When they came back to their senses, they looked at the Goddess with ill intent.

Now, in the seventh month of Weiyang, when the people who were supposed to be in Zhenhe Village were busy harvesting this year's first batch of new rations, a big, sudden hail half a month ago made all of the villagers unable to harvest a single grain.

Originally, he had hurriedly planted the seed and relied on his old rations to barely survive. However, soon after, there was a great drought. Not to mention whether the seed would be able to sprout, even if it grew out, it would still die from the drought.

More importantly, if this drought continued, even people would die.

Only then did the villages within ten li of the village gather together. They gathered food and invited this Goddess to beg for rain, and even though the Goddess said that she would burn people to sacrifice to the heavens, they did not stop her.

Those villagers who had nearly gritted their teeth to bring out the lifesaving food were immediately enraged. With a fierce look in their eyes, they stood up and walked towards the Goddess.

"If you dare to deceive our food, I'll burn you to death for the sake of the heavens!"

The Goddess was so scared by Jiang Wanbai's trick that her face turned pale. She forced herself to retreat and cried out: "I'll return the food to you! I'll return it to you! I beg you to let me go! "

Jiang Wanbai had been exposed to the sun for too long and had already lost all of her strength. She hung her head helplessly, gasping for breath, and her head was also dizzy.

Jiang Wanbai felt like his head was about to explode, but she had to stay awake in case these villagers came to anger her after dealing with the Goddess.

The Zhenhe Village elder looked at Jiang Wanbai who was sitting there, and a light flashed across his blurry eyes. He did not dare to go forward, so he sent a villager who looked sincere to ask him: "Silly girl, do you have a way to make the sky rain?"

"Who are you calling stupid girl?" Jiang Wanbai said angrily as he pressed his swollen temples with his hand.

Although she already knew that her original body was a fool, she couldn't let these people continue to treat her as one. She raised her head and swept her cold eyes over them.

The villagers were frightened to the point of trembling. Some of them who had already done something shameful or cowardly directly kneeled down.

"Immortal …" "Spare me, Immortal!" The Village Chief trembled with reverence. He did not understand why a fool would suddenly become so stupid and be able to stir up rain and fire. He even got struck by lightning and thought that she was some sort of immortal.
