Although Suwa had agreed to help the humans, she did not intend to help them directly today. Instead, she postponed it to tomorrow. Today, Liu Chen, the priest, would convey the will of God so that the villagers would be mentally prepared.
Liu Chen left the deep mountain where Suwa was, and the villagers outside the mountain were waiting for God's will.
When the villagers saw Liu Chen, they were delighted. However, he did not offend them, because the appearance of the priest must have the will of the gods. If he were to offend or disturb them, he might offend the gods. In the end, only the village chief could ask.
"Liu Chen, what do you mean?"
"Oh, Grandpa Mitsuguchi, God has agreed to your request!”
Liu Chen did not keep them in suspense. After all, the flood had exhausted many people. If the gods did not help, many people would despair.
After all, the flood had flooded the fields, and in this era, not having a field was equivalent to waiting for death.
"Thank you, Lord Great Ming God!"
The villagers kept kneeling down to express their respect for Suwa, who was deep in the mountains.
"Alright, Grandpa Mitsuguchi, can you take me to the dam? I need to report everything to the Lord God.”
"Of course, follow me!"
Yu Xinkou quickly led the way, and the other villagers followed.
On the way, Liu Chen had also roughly seen the tragedy caused by the flood. Houses were destroyed by the torrential water, and fields were flooded. Everything was mercilessly destroyed.
"By the way, Grandpa Mixinkou, are there any casualties?”
Liu Chen was most worried that there would be a large number of casualties. After all, this was the place where he had lived for 16 years. Many people had treated him very well. Liu Chen did not want anyone to die.
"There are no casualties. The flood this time is actually not very big. I'm afraid that when the dam completely collapses, it will be a devastating blow to the villagers downstream.”
"Oh, I see!"
Liu Chen heaved a sigh of relief. Since there were no casualties, his mother should be fine. No matter how worried Liu Chen was about his mother, he could finally relax.
Not long after, Liu Chen also reached the dam. A huge amount of water flowed out from the lake above. Because the water was extremely fast, people were unable to block it.
Moreover, this dam was too simple. It was simply made of trees and stones. After experiencing the destruction of the storm, a huge gap finally appeared in the originally simple dam.
"It doesn't look good!"
"Yeah, Liu Chen. In fact, we didn't want to disturb the Lord God because of this, but there was really no other way. If the dam completely collapsed, the villagers downstream would also be completely destroyed.”
The village chief also sighed helplessly. He did not want to disturb the Lord God, but since things had come to this, he had no choice. In terms of survival, he could only do this.
Liu Chen was also looking at such a natural disaster. The people of this era were powerless to struggle under the majesty of nature. They could only rely on the gods.
"I know, Grandpa Mitsuguchi. I'll report it to the Lord God truthfully. Don't worry too much. Lord Suwa will come to help you tomorrow.”
"Thank you for the grace of the Great Ming God!”
The village chief once again knelt down to thank him. Liu Chen also bid farewell to the village chief and asked him to prepare to welcome Lord Suwa tomorrow.
The village chief replied. Liu Chen also left, but Liu Chen did not return to the gods directly. Instead, he went to his home.
It had been a long time since he had visited his mother in this world. He also took this opportunity to visit his mother and see how she was living alone.
"Dang, dang, dang!"
Liu Chen knocked on the door. Not long after, his mother opened her mouth.
"Mother!"
Liu Chen said to his mother. His mother was also stunned for a second when she saw Liu Chen. Then, she happily pulled him into the house.
"Little Chen, why did you come back today?”
"Village Chief, didn't you ask the gods for help today? I came down the mountain to convey the divine message. "Moreover, didn't there be a flood these few days? I was worried about you, so I came over to take a look.”
"So that's how it is, Chen 'er. I'm fine. You don't have to worry. You're a priest. Your job is to serve God well.”
Liu Chen and his mother kept talking about what had happened in the past ten days. Perhaps it was because they hadn't seen Liu Chen for more than ten days, but his mother kept asking Liu Chen if he was used to living with the gods, as if she was taking care of a child.
Perhaps Liu Chen had always been a child in his mother's eyes and needed care.
"Alright, it's almost night time! I should also leave. Mother, please take care of yourself and don't work too hard.”
The mother's eyes revealed her reluctance, but she did not stop him. She also understood that her son had more important things to do.
"Oh right, Chen 'er, wait a moment. I'll go get something for you."
Without waiting for Liu Chen to stop her, her mother had already entered her bedroom. Not long after, a large set of clothes was placed in Liu Chen's hands.
"Chen 'er, it's almost autumn, and the weather is getting cold. I've knitted a piece of clothing for you. Take it back and wear it!”
"This…"
Liu Chen held the clothes in his hands. How could he not know how precious the material of the clothes was? It could be said that only gods were qualified to wear them.
Liu Chen did not ask about the origin of this dress. His mother did not want her children to know about her hard work. Liu Chen did not point it out and silently remembered it in his heart.
"I know, Mother! I'll be leaving first!"
Liu Chen also slowly left, while his mother watched his back until he disappeared.
"Sigh…!"
Liu Chen looked at the clothes in his hands and sighed.
"How do you want me to repay this favor, my mother!!”
In this world, Liu Chen always had ties that he could not cut off!
