Silence!
It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard!
One second!
Two seconds!
Three seconds!
After a full five seconds, the sound of gulping could be heard from the men's throats.
If the speed at which the joss sticks burned could be explained by the quality of the joss sticks, then it couldn't be explained by science, right?
Damn it, it could only be the Earth Lord's manifestation.
Thinking of this…
The men kowtowed even more seriously and were extremely respectful when they prayed.
At the same time,
They looked at Chen Jidong with a hint of sympathy in their eyes. This guy must have offended the local god, right?
Yes, yes.
If I were the local god, I would also be angry if someone didn't believe me.
As for Qin Fude?
He, the local god, had a mocking expression on his face as he stared at Chen Jidong with a smile.
He was very familiar with people like Chen Jidong. One look and he knew that he was a particularly firm atheist.
Qin Fude had been a god for so many years, and he liked such challenging goals.
He wanted to see how long Chen Jidong could last.
Why don't you continue to explain it with science?
As long as you can think of a reasonable explanation, I'll consider it your win!
Qin Fude then looked at the other men, his eyes filled with satisfaction.
These men were not bad.
Because they were here to pray for the safety of their wives and children, each of them provided him with three wisps of faith power. The 13 of them had 39 wisps of faith power.
Not bad.
Not bad.
He Youwen stood at the side and saw this scene. He immediately said with a straight face,"You have to be sincere. I've already told you that you have to be sincere when you worship the Earth Lord. If you don't believe me, why are you here to worship?”
He Youwen was a little angry when he saw that Chen Jidong, a foreigner, did not believe that the local god of Daoguai Village could show his power.
At this moment.
If one's observation skills were not bad, one could actually see Chen Jidong's body trembling slightly.
However, this guy was the kind of person who was stubborn.
A person like him would not turn back until he hit a brick wall. He would not give up until he reached the Yellow River.
Therefore, he was silent for more than ten seconds. Then, he ignored He Youwen's words and said with a trembling voice,"Hehe, the quality of the incense I bought is not good. It must have been damp. Why won't it burn?”
His voice fell.
The 13 men looked at him at the same time, their eyes full of disdain.
hehe ~
Big brother.
Do you think we're blind?
If you really think it's because you're wet, why are you trembling?
Chen Jidong licked his lips and said,""I'll try the yellow paper again. It will definitely light up.”
After saying this, his hands trembled slightly. He pulled out a stack of yellow paper that he had bought. It seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and slowly moved it to the fiercely burning bonfire.
However…
Qin Fude only smiled as he watched his actions. The moment the yellow paper was about to be lit, he gently blew on it.
Instantly.
Something similar to what happened just now happened.
No matter what angle Chen Jidong used, no matter what method he used…even if he threw the stack of yellow paper into the fire, he could not ignite it.
Silence!
At least Chen Jidong's heart was completely calm and cold.
He even wanted to take out his phone and ask on Qiandu: What if he offended the local god? Waiting online, especially anxious!
He could lie to himself that He Xiangzhen's successful delivery was because she had a folk prescription.
He could also lie to himself that the incense did not burn because it was wet.
But what about the yellow paper?
Even if this thing was damp, it could easily burn if it was roasted by fire.
In other words:
The Earth Lord really showed his power.
As for him!
He had offended the local god!
His actions might even implicate his wife and children.
This made Chen Jidong feel that he was a sinner and a beast.
Why did he have to be so stubborn?
Isn't it good to follow the masses?
You're awesome.
It was fine now.
God knows if the Earth Lord will forgive you.
Beside Chen Jidong, the 13 men knew that he was scared just by looking at his expression.
Immediately.
"Bro, your yellow paper is a little wet," one of the men teased.”
"Why don't you try mine?"
As they spoke.
That person even grabbed a handful of yellow paper from Chen Jidong and respectfully placed it on the fire.
Qin Fude took a deep breath.
In an instant.
" Boom!" The yellow paper burned fiercely, and the flame directly flew to Chen Jidong's eyebrows, giving him a fright.
It was at this moment.
Chen Jidong, this big man, finally couldn't hold it in anymore.
With a bang, he knelt heavily in front of the Earth Temple and kowtowed nine times without a word.
It was really a bang.
"Bang!"
Even an ordinary person could hear the sound, let alone Qin Fude, who was a god.
When Chen Jidong kowtowed, a total of five strands of golden power of faith floated out of his body and fused into Qin Fude's statue.
He was instantly amused.
Now, Qin Fude hoped that there would be more people like Chen Jidong.
This was because once this kind of person completely believed in the existence of the local god, the power of faith he could produce would be more than those believers who followed the masses.
After nine kowtows, Chen Jidong raised his head.
A red mark appeared on his forehead as he said with a trembling voice,"
"Earth god, you're an old man who doesn't hold a grudge against me. Please don't make things difficult for my wife and child.”
"If you don't want to calm down, you can punish me. You can punish me however you want.”
"Please, Earth Lord, I really know my mistake.”
“……”
Of course, Qin Fude would not really punish Chen Jidong. His goal had been achieved, and everything would go on as usual.
These thoughts flashed through Qin Fude's mind. He looked at Chen Jidong and took a deep breath at the yellow paper he had thrown into the fire.
Instantly.
With a bang, the stack of yellow paper started to burn violently.
This scene made Chen Jidong overjoyed. He shouted excitedly,
"Lord Earth forgives me."
"The Earth Lord has finally forgiven me.”
