Once upon a time, there was a clay pot seller who pushed his cart down the streets and alleys to sell goods. One day, when he walked to a village, he heard the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers from a distance. When he got closer, he found that it was common people begging for rain. So he parked his car under the tree in front of the shrine, wanting to rest and watch the excitement.

After a while, the "god" who was begging for rain in the shed came out, and his assistant asked him what kind of god he was, and he said it was "Jiulang." All the people begging for rain knelt down and begged for rain, and they didn't talk to the "god." They saw him jumping up and down, sometimes left, sometimes right, a while ago, and a while later, and muttering spells in his mouth. For some reason, he jumped on the car selling mud cans at once, and the car fell down, and all the mud cans "crackled" fell clean.

The pot seller was very angry when he saw it, but he did not dare to make a sound, for fear of delaying his request for rain. Don't say it, but he is not reconciled. Everyone just knelt down and begged for rain, and no one cared about him. He had to sit in the car alone, dumbfounded.

Just as "Jiulang", who was begging for rain, came to him again, he suddenly came up with an idea. In the blink of an eye, he was sitting by side of the car and shivering. When everyone saw it, they all gathered around to watch.

A daring person asked him, "What kind of god are you and what are you doing here?" He squinted his eyes, pretended to be silly, and said, "I'm Second Master Guan." As soon as everyone heard that he was Second Master Guan, they all knelt down together. Everyone knew that Second Master Guan was the most sympathetic to the common people and the most sensitive to the rain.

I heard this "Second Master Guan" say: "As long as I come, there is nothing that can't rain, not only the rain, but also the rain altar." After listening, everyone kowtowed like chicken and rice. Put your hands together and keep saying, "Thank you, Second Master Guan, thank you, Second Master Guan."

This "Second Master Guan" said again: "Before I start raining, I must prepare a red-hot iron whip. I will hold it and dance around the shrine three times to drive away evil energy before I can start raining."

The villagers were eager for rain, so they immediately built a simple stove with bricks, and it took a long time to burn the red iron whip. When everything was ready, "Second Master Guan" ordered: "Get Jiulang to hand me the iron whip." "Jiulang" was dumbfounded when he heard that, he knew he was a fake, and he was here to cheat on food and drink, how could he get the red-hot iron whip?

There was no way, so he had to kneel in front of the fake "Second Master Guan" and plead: "Please forgive me, Second Master Guan, I am fake," the moment the clay pot seller heard: "You are fake, which turtle is real, you pretended to be a ghost and smashed my mud pot.

The person who pretended to be "Jiulang" saw that the matter was exposed, and he could no longer pretend. He could only bow his head and admit defeat and pay the money for the clay pot according to the price. From then on, the people of this village were no longer superstitious about begging for rain.
