The baron nodded, glanced at the people in the village, and then raised his voice and said: "Everyone in Niutou Village, listen, I know that there are many people in your village who believe in this god and that god. I want to tell you that the gods you believe in will not bless you, because those gods do not exist at all. I have been collecting taxes from you for so many years, and I know your situation very clearly, so I I specially invited a guru to come here. This guru is a real guru with great supernatural powers. He will set up a totem pole in your village. This totem pole has great power. As long as you believe in him, as long as you get up every morning and sincerely worship this totem pole, you will have good luck in a month. By then, you will no longer believe in the gods you believe in. Do you understand? !”

When the baron said this, the people in Niutou Village were in a commotion. They really didn't expect that the baron would take care of this matter, which surprised them all. Moreover, in a village like Niutou Village, Some of them believe in a god and have believed in it for many years. Now suddenly they can no longer believe in that god. They are really not used to it.

The baron looked at them and couldn't help but snorted coldly, and then said: "Quiet!" The warriors in armor behind him all shouted loudly, and everyone in the village was shocked, and then they all behaved. They closed their mouths and looked at the baron one by one. They did not dare to offend the baron.

The baron looked at the villagers and said loudly: "Listen, this is for your own good. If any of you dare not to worship the totem pole, don't blame me for being rude. After the autumn harvest, the tax will be increased by 30%. Do you understand?" The baron looked at it. I told them nice things, but they didn't seem to listen, so I immediately changed my approach.

When the villagers heard the baron say that if they did not worship the totem pole, a 30% tax would be added. They were all stunned. Then the village elders immediately said: "Yes, please don't worry, Lord Baron. We will definitely worship the totem pole every day." I will never forget it for a moment, sir, please rest assured."

The baron nodded, then turned to the person behind him and said, "Please, sir." His attitude was very respectful. The man also nodded to the baron, and then with a movement of his body, he flew directly from the horse and stopped in mid-air, looking down at the villagers in the sky.

When the villagers saw that the man could fly in mid-air, they couldn't help but froze, and then they all knelt down. Then several village elders took the lead and shouted loudly: "Young people have seen the immortal!" This village of theirs Although it is not a big place, the village has always had legends about immortals passed down. According to legend, there used to be a child in their village who was very smart. Later, he was noticed by an immortal, and he followed the immortal to practice the path of immortality. Twenty years later, the child returned to the village, showed some immortal skills, and then picked up all his family members and lived a good life, so for the people in the village, the immortal Prestige, it is definitely much more effective if it is a baron.

When the monk saw the appearance of the people in Niutou Village, he was stunned at first, and then smiled slightly. That's fine. The people in the village regarded him as an immortal, so they should not do what he asked the people in the village to do. He dared not do it, so he stood in the sky and said in a deep voice: "Okay, you all listen carefully. Every morning, you must sincerely bow to the totem pole three times. The more sincere you are, the more I will bless you. You can do you understand?"

The people in the village immediately said loudly: "Yes, Master Shangxian, I understand." Many people in the village had excited faces. In the past, there were only legends of Shangxian in their village, but they had never seen it. After passing the immortal, they thought it was just a legend, but they did not expect that the immortal appeared in front of them today, how could they not be excited.

Looking at the people in the village, the monk nodded, and then he waved his hand, and a huge tree suddenly fell from the sky and pierced directly into the grain field. This huge tree was about three feet high, and one person It is as thick as a hug and has many patterns engraved on it, making it look very mysterious.

The most important thing is that this giant tree looks green and seems to be full of life. When the giant tree stands there, there is a very comfortable feeling around it. There are some people who are injured or sick. , and immediately felt a lot more comfortable, which made the people in the village even more convinced that the Immortal was really powerful and very great.

At this time, the monk had already landed on his horse. The baron glanced at the people in the village and said loudly: "Listen carefully. From now on, you must sincerely worship the totem pole three times every morning, and then do other things. After a month , I will definitely benefit you." Everyone responded in unison, and then the baron led his men and the monk out of Niutou Village.

After the Immortal and the Baron left, the people of Niutou Village stood up. Several village elders gathered together to discuss. Then several people turned around and looked at the people of Niutou Village. A village elder said loudly: " I think everyone heard what the Baron and the Immortal said, and with this totem pole standing here, I also feel that my body feels a lot more comfortable. From now on, everyone must come and worship three times every morning. If anyone If he doesn’t come to pay his respects, it will affect all of us. If the baron charges an extra 30% tax, don’t blame us for not letting him go.”

The people in the village still respected the village elders very much. When they heard what the village elders said, they all immediately responded, and then the village elders asked everyone to disperse. Wang Daniu and Xiaoguo naturally returned to their home. As soon as they entered the house, Xiaoguo said to Wang Daniu: "Brother Daniu, do you think we really have to go to the totem pole every day to worship?"

Wang Daniu nodded and said: "Of course I'm going. Didn't you see that all the immortals showed up today? You must worship the totem pole. Maybe it will really bring us good luck. And if we don't go If you do, what will happen if the baron really charges three more taxes? We will starve."

When Xiao Guo heard what Wang Daniu said, he was also stunned, and then nodded and said: "Brother Daniu, you are right. From now on, we will go there to pay our respects every day. If it can really bring us good luck, that would be the best." Yes, even if it doesn’t bring us good luck, as long as it allows us to keep 30% of our food supply, that’s good.”

Wang Daniu nodded, then looked at the sky and said in a naive voice: "It's still early now. I'm going to the fields to finish hoeing the land. It hasn't rained recently. If it doesn't rain, I'm afraid it will It will affect today's food production." As he said this, he walked out.

Xiaoguo quickly followed out, saying as he walked: "I'll go with you. Finish hoeing the ground earlier, so we can come back earlier." Wang Daniu didn't object when he arrived. The woman in the mountain, together with the man It is common to work in the fields, so Daniel has no objection to Xiaoguo going to the fields with him.

The young couple was busy in the fields all afternoon. When it was almost dark, they returned to their small home and grabbed a bite of food. Even if they had finished their dinner, Xiaoguo He said to Daniel: "Brother Daniel, come with me to the barn to have a look. After the totem pole was erected there today, I felt so comfortable. I think there should be many people in the village gathering now." Let’s chat in Haoli and let’s go see if it’s an illusion.”

Upon hearing what Xiao Guo said, Wang Daniu also nodded, and then they followed Xiao Guo out of the door and walked to the barn. As soon as they arrived at the barn, the two of them were stunned for a moment, because the barn was now full of people. A lot of people, including several village elders and most of the people in the village, were gathered in the barn. Several fires were lit there, and people were sitting around the fires chatting.

Someone who was familiar with the two of them also saw the two of them, and quickly asked them to come over and sit down. The two of them immediately came over. As soon as they entered the area of ​​Yiguchang, the two of them felt a burst of comfort. One day All the fatigue seemed to have disappeared. After the two sat down, a villager said to Wang Daniu: "Daniu, how do you feel? Are you not tired anymore? We just discovered it. We had eaten before and thought I came here to sit and sit, because during the day, when this totem pole was standing here, I felt very comfortable, so I came here at night. Unexpectedly, when I got here, I felt that I was not tired at all. , and have you noticed? There is not a single mosquito here. I think the immortal must have blessed the totem pole with great immortal power, so there are no mosquitoes here. It seems that I will really come here to pay my respects in the future. .”

Wang Daniu knew the man he was talking to. His name was Uncle Wu. He was also an honest man in the village. He was a very good person and had a good relationship with him. Wang Daniu smiled and said, "Yes, I should come and pay my respects. Otherwise, The Baron will charge more taxes." Wang Daniu was still worried about overcharging taxes.

When Uncle Wu heard what Wu Daniu said, he couldn't help but smile and said: "You're right, we can't let the baron charge 30% more tax, and it's really nice here. The gods we worshiped before can't be seen." Yes, and this totem pole was erected here by an immortal, so why not worship this totem pole? Daniel, you will come and worship every day from now on. You two don’t have children yet. If you have children in the future, you can be It’s a great thing that the Immortal is interested in you. You will become prosperous in the future, not just you, but our Niutou Village will also benefit from it.”

"That's right." At this time, an old man's voice came. Wang Daniu turned around and saw that it was a village elder who spoke. Wang Daniu and his fifth uncle quickly saluted him, but the old man waved his hand and then sat down. He came down and said to Wang Daniu: "Daniu, Xiaowu is right. From now on, in the village, young people like you who can give birth to babies must worship here every day. The babies born in the future will also be smarter. If one day the Immortal takes a fancy to your children and takes other people's children to cultivate as immortals, it will be a great thing to bring glory to our ancestors, and you will have a good life in the future."

Wang Daniu scratched his hair with some embarrassment and said to the old man: "Yes, Master Qi, I will definitely come here to worship every day in the future. Don't worry." Wang Daniu was also going to come here to worship every day, naturally. There will be no dissatisfaction.
