On the east side of the river, there was a young man wearing a light yellow robe sitting in the river. The river flowed around him, but did not wet his clothes.

The young man looked up at the moon, his eyes full of deep longing.

"Legend has it that there is a giant golden toad that once swallowed the moon in one gulp. It was so powerful. When will I have such magical power?"

"You probably have no hope in this life."

A faint voice came, startling the young man. The young man turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.

He is an elegant gentleman. His white robe shimmers under the moonlight, and he is full of fairy temperament.

"Humph, you said I have no hope?"

The young man was not convinced, stood up and stood on the river.

"I tell you, I will become a god soon. I will definitely become an extremely powerful demon in the future. I will be able to swallow the moon sooner or later!"

Seeing how ambitious this guy was, Xiuchen couldn't bear to tell him the truth. The toad that swallowed the moon with great pride was caught by Daozu and roasted into dried toads, which were eaten by Dabai as snacks. He was there at the time

Look at it, it's crunchy.

"You'd better save your time and tell me first, why do you want to harm the people of Xiaohe Village?"

The young man was very arrogant and walked towards Xiuchen step by step with his hands behind his back.

"You care about me? A group of mortals. Whether I kill them or eat them is my freedom. Do you care?"

"You admitted it?"

"Why don't I admit it?"

Xiuchen was confused.

Is this guy so brave to admit it so readily in front of me?

Xiuchen began to be confused and asked tentatively:

"If you admit it, I will not let you continue to do evil. I may kill you directly."

The young man was not worried about his threat and continued to walk leisurely, and even started to circle around Xiuchen.

"Not to mention whether you have the ability to kill me, you say I am evil? What is evil? Are those people dead? Do you know that group of people went down to the river to catch fish, frogs, and toads? How many did they catch?

Which of the fish or toads you caught can come back alive? Why don’t you say they are evil?”

The young man stared at Xiuchen, wanting to see how he would refute him.

Xiuchen asked calmly:

"Since you want to think from the perspective of a toad, why do you want to turn into a human form?"

The young man felt that the words of rebuttal had reached his throat, but he couldn't say it out. After holding it in for a long time, he could only say angrily:

"Why are you asking this? What's the point?"

Seeing him like this, Xiuchen realized that this man was so calm not because he was confident, but because he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

"Actually, it doesn't make any sense. I just want to tell you that if you want to be a human being, you have to think from a human perspective. Evil is not absolute, but relative. To humans, you are evil. Okay, it's time for me to take care of you."

After hearing this, the young man immediately took action, throwing up flying sand and rocks and hitting Xiuchen.

"They are all demons who have just transformed. Who is afraid of whom?"

Xiuchen stretched out his hand and pressed lightly, and the flying sand and stones stopped immediately. In the blink of an eye, two vines grew under the young man's feet, tying him up.

The method is the same as the last time I dealt with the Blood Demon, the same formula, and the familiar taste.

He made sword fingers with his right hand and wrote one word in the air: Now! He flicked his fingers into the young man's body.

"go!"

"Bang!"

The originally handsome and regal young man turned into a fat toad after Zi Jue entered his body.

"Haha, you are really a toad spirit. Now is it time to tell you what you want to do?"

At this time, the toad spirit has not yet reacted.

"You! You, you, how can you be so strong?"

Xiu Chen chuckled, imitating his leisurely pace just now, and started circling around him with his hands behind his back.

"You and I are different. I am an old guy who has been practicing for tens of thousands of years. How can you, a little demon who has been practicing for hundreds of years, fight me?"

The Toad Spirit accepted his fate, he was really unlucky.

"I actually don't want to kill those villagers, I just want to deceive them into a god position. You should know everything about Xiaohe Village, so I won't say anything about it. My plan is to poison them again tonight.

When the villagers were poisoned, I went to tell them: I am not strong enough to kill the monster and need help from the villagers. Then I asked them to build a temple for me and put some incense on it.

If He gains the status of a righteous god, he will naturally help them detoxify."

The toad spirit looked depressed. It would have been better if the boss had come a little later. His plan was almost successful.

After hearing this, Xiuchen felt even more confused.

"If this river is qualified to be granted the title of Righteous God, then this river should already have a river god. Aren't you afraid that he will wake up and deal with you?"

"He can't wake up. Not to mention him, most of the gods in this world can't wake up. Gods need incense and the will to wake up. How many temples and shrines do you think have incense now? Gods without incense

I can’t even wake up.”

Xiu Chen remembered that the emperor had previously said that he would build a temple for him. It was very hard for these gods to protect one side. Now that the demons have woken up, they should be allowed to wake up.

"Do you know where the River Temple is? Take me there."

The toad spirit didn't want to, but he had no choice. This man was stronger than him. He now understood that his dream of becoming a god was probably completely shattered.

The River Goddess Temple is about ten miles away from Xiaohe Village. The temple is in dilapidated condition. The statue of the River God fell to the ground and one corner was damaged.

Xiu Chen looked at the dilapidated scene in front of him and was filled with emotion. These gods were originally spirits in the mountains, rivers and swamps. They protected a place and were worshiped by others, so they became gods. After the divine ban, they fell asleep and could no longer protect people.

, people will forget them.

"Sometimes people are really ruthless." Xiuchen murmured to himself.

"Isn't it?" Toad Spirit agreed deeply.

"I will handle the affairs of the River God. Don't think about this god. You poisoned the villagers of Xiaohe Village. Although you didn't hurt the lives, you still caused a lot of trouble to them. I won't kill you, but I will deprive you of your rights."

All the cultivation will be done as punishment, and you will become an ignorant beast from now on."

The toad spirit was horrified after hearing this. After it gained consciousness, it never wanted to be that ignorant beast again. This was more terrifying to it than death.

"No, Immortal, I was wrong. I will never do evil again. Please let me go. I beg you to be merciful and let me go. Gua..."

The rattan tied to the toad sucked away all the spiritual energy from the toad spirit and destroyed its foundation. From now on, it will be just a big, strong toad and nothing more.

"Don't blame me. You only have a human form but no heart. If I keep you, you might do evil again."

After letting the big toad go, Xiu Chen began to repair the statue. He originally wanted to clean up the River God Temple, but he felt that this temple should not be cleaned up by himself. So he would just help the River God repair the statue.

I will tell a new story tomorrow.
