Chapter 904: Water God's Misunderstanding

Zhang Meng made the announcement excitedly in the village square. Although the villagers were already accustomed to his "enthusiasm", this time everyone's eyes were full of anticipation.

"Mengzi, are there any new challenges today?" Qin Feng leaned against the tree and asked casually.

"Of course! As a candidate for the Water God, I must demonstrate my abilities!" Zhang Meng was full of confidence and acted like a hero.

"Then are you ready to accept the various challenges in the village?" Qin Feng teased, "For example, cleaning the dirt in the village well? Or delivering water to the stream?"

"This..." Zhang Meng suddenly hesitated, "Cleaning the dirt may sound a bit troublesome, but I will consider it!"

"Don't worry, everyone will support you." Qin Feng patted his shoulder encouragingly.

The village chief came over and asked with a smile: "Zhang Meng, what kind of challenge are you ready to take on today?"

"Village chief, I want to show my ability as a water god and protect the village!" Zhang Meng said firmly, his heart full of pride.

"Very good, brave candidate! The responsibility of protecting the village falls on your shoulders." The village chief nodded, with an encouraging gleam in his eyes.

"I'll try my best!" said Zhang Meng.

“Remember, responsibility is not just a display of strength, it also requires wisdom and understanding,” the village chief continued.

"I understand, village chief! I will study hard!" Zhang Meng nodded seriously.

"Then let's go check out the well. I heard the water quality has deteriorated recently," suggested the village chief.

"Good idea, I'll go right away!" said Zhang Meng, eager to prove himself.

They walked towards the well together, and on the way Zhang Meng was thinking about how to demonstrate his abilities.

"You said the water quality in the well has deteriorated. Is there something bad going on?" Zhang Meng asked.

"I heard there are some debris and bugs in the well." Qin Feng replied.

"Then I have to check it carefully!" Zhang Meng was full of confidence.

When they arrived at the well, the villagers gathered together and looked at the wellhead anxiously.

"Village chief, the water in the well has really become not very good." said a villager with a frown.

"We have to find a way to solve this problem." The village chief murmured.

"Let me try!" Zhang Meng said confidently, jumping into the well, ready to show his abilities.

"Be careful! It's not safe to be in the deep well!" Qin Feng reminded from behind.

"No problem, I can control the water flow!" Zhang Meng said, his heart full of courage.

He bent down and looked carefully at the surface of the well and found some garbage and debris floating in the water.

"Wow, this place is so messy!" Zhang Meng couldn't help but say, "I have to clean it up!"

He concentrated his mind and tried to awaken the power of water, trying to clear out the debris.

"Water, listen to my command!" Zhang Meng shouted, the crystal ball in his hand flashing.

The water began to surge under his guidance. Zhang Meng pushed hard and the debris was washed away with the water.

"Well done, Mengzi!" Qin Feng encouraged from the side.

"Thank you! I feel I can do more!" Zhang Meng was full of confidence and continued to work hard.

However, as the garbage was cleared, he suddenly heard a "gurgling" sound coming from deep in the well.

"What's that sound?" Zhang Meng asked curiously.

"It might be the water flowing under the well." The village chief responded.

"Do you want to go down and take a look?" Zhang Meng felt curious.

"I think it's okay, but you must be careful!" Qin Feng reminded.

"I'll go down now!" Zhang Meng did not hesitate and slowly dived into the depths of the well.

The water in the well rolled around him, and Zhang Meng tried to stay calm and swam downstream.

"I will definitely find the source of the water!" he said to himself.

As he went deeper into the well, the water flow became faster and faster, and Zhang Meng gradually felt a mysterious force.

"This water flow is so strange!" he thought to himself, but suddenly a strong current swept him into it.

"Ah! No!" Zhang Meng screamed and was instantly thrown upside down by the water.

As he struggled, the current suddenly slowed and he found himself trapped in an underwater whirlpool.

"Where is this place?" Zhang Meng looked around, full of confusion.

"You are finally here, the candidate for the Water God!" A low voice came from the water.

"Who is talking?" Zhang Meng was surprised.

"I am the guardian of the waters, the former water god." A figure slowly emerged from the voice.

"Water God? Why are you here?" Zhang Meng was a little uneasy.

"I am trapped in this whirlpool and cannot get out. You are the only one who can help me." said the water god.

"I can help you, but how should I do it?" Zhang Meng asked puzzledly.

"You need to find the key to open the whirlpool to release me." The water god continued.

"Key? What is that?" Zhang Meng was confused and wanted to know more.

"It is the power I once used to maintain the balance of the waters. It must be found when the water flows fast." said the water god.

"I understand. I will try my best to find it!" Zhang Meng said, his heart full of a sense of mission.

"Can you find it?" asked the water god, with a hint of expectation in his tone.

"Of course! I will definitely find the key!" Zhang Meng nodded firmly.

So he began to swim around in the whirlpool, feeling the changes in the water flow.

"Water flow, take me to the direction of the key!" Zhang Meng shouted, trying to awaken the power of the water flow.

Just then, he discovered that the rapidity and rotation of the water flow suddenly accelerated somewhere, and there seemed to be a faint flash of something.

"There is light there!" Zhang Meng was excited and swam quickly towards the direction of the light.

He swam desperately and finally got close to the glowing place and found that it was a sparkling drop of water.

"Here is the key!" he cried joyfully, and reached out to seize the drop of water.

However, the water flow became more violent, and Zhang Meng felt a strong pressure that seemed to push him back.

"I can't give up!" Zhang Meng swam desperately, trying to move forward.

"Come on, water! Listen to my command!" He shouted loudly, and the crystal ball in his hand flickered and gradually resonated with the water droplets.

Finally, he succeeded in catching the water droplet and felt a powerful force surging into his body.

"Great, I found the key!" Zhang Meng said excitedly, his heart full of a sense of accomplishment.

He swam back to the water god and handed him the water drop.

"This is your key, use it to open the vortex!" Zhang Meng shouted.

The water god took the water drop and waved it gently, and the power of the whirlpool began to weaken.

"Thank you, brave candidate!" said the Water God with a smile, his tone full of gratitude.

"Let's work together to keep the waters safe!" Zhang Meng said firmly.

The water flow gradually returned to calm, and Zhang Meng felt that his connection with the water god was becoming closer.

"Water God, I will do my best to protect this area of ​​water!" Zhang Meng's heart was full of responsibility.

"Remember, a true water god is not just a symbol of strength, but also requires wisdom and kindness." The water god reminded seriously.

"I will keep it in mind!" Zhang Meng said confidently.

As the water god's power gradually recovered, the water flow became gentle again, and Zhang Meng felt a warmth.

"You have completed the final test, and now you can go back and tell the villagers in the village." The water god said with a smile.

"Thank you, I will try to do better!" Zhang Meng nodded gratefully.

"Go, candidate for the Water God!" The Water God waved his hand gently, and Zhang Meng and Qin Feng returned to the well under the guidance of the water flow.

"Wow, this is amazing!" Qin Feng exclaimed.

"Yes, I feel like I've become stronger!" Zhang Meng said excitedly, his face full of pride.

They returned to the well, where the villagers were still waiting anxiously.

"Zhang Meng, did you succeed?" the village chief asked with concern.

"Success! I passed all the trials and the power of the Water God is back!" Zhang Meng announced excitedly.

"Great, you are really our water god!" The villagers cheered, their faces filled with joy.

"I will continue to work hard to protect everyone!" Zhang Meng said firmly.

"Now the village is safe!" The villagers congratulated.

As night fell, the village looked peaceful and beautiful under the moonlight. Zhang Meng knew that as a candidate for the Water God, he shouldered greater responsibilities and began his journey to become the Water God.

"Future challenges are still waiting for me, and I will definitely meet them!" Zhang Meng said to himself with pride on his face.
