The heavy rain continued all day long, and the water vapor did not dissipate until the next morning. Clouds floated in the sky, and the looming five-color rainbow illuminated the potholes and mud everywhere on the ground.
Chen Yu left the Taoist temple early. He first cleaned up the debris in the mountains and fields. Large clumps of dead trees and leaves were crumpled into tidal flats and thrown aside. Then he carried a hoe and walked down the winding path down the mountain.
Towards the place where Qingtai Mountain is blocked by landslide debris.
Yesterday there was a strong wind and rain, and several hillsides in the east and south slid and collapsed. The falling sand and soil mixed with broken trees and hard rocks accumulated at the foot of the mountain, breaking the road going out in half.
Chen Yu, who had planned to visit the county town in the near future, naturally couldn't leave it alone, but yesterday he saw that the torrent of earth and rocks was really huge and covered an extremely wide area. He alone would not be able to dig out as long as the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse.
Fortunately, he was already prepared - after weighing the dozen or so high-quality stone charms in his arms, his face became more relaxed.
Thanks to the characteristics of the stone itself, although the difficulty of carving stone talismans is slightly higher than that of wooden talismans, the number of formation patterns that can be accommodated is also larger. A three-finger-wide stone egg is enough to carve two to three types of Sancai formations.
.
In this way, it only needs to be supplemented with ingenuity, constructed in an upper and lower level, and multiple three-talent formations are connected and inlaid, and a stone talisman can be turned into a simple magic formation.
Just like these in his hands.
It mainly focused on [Burning], with a lot of aggressive formation patterns. Although it was only tested a few times, the success rate was very high, and it was only failed to activate once due to a mistake during seal carving.
In order to open for fishing earlier, he specially prepared two water-bending wooden talismans in addition to the dozens of water-bending wooden talismans. He planned to change the food for the black fish and add extra meals. However, in the end, he was unable to use it until he witnessed the collapse of the rock yesterday.
, after the scene of the mountains collapsing, I expected that the bottom of the mountain would be in a mess, so I carved a few more while watching the heavy rain.
Stone talismans are more difficult to make than wooden blocks, but the energy retained in them is longer and more, and the effect produced after being triggered will naturally be one point better.
Halfway up the mountain, you can see the small pond for carrying water by the road hidden among the reeds. The weeds are lush on both sides, and the water body is diffuse and rising.
When I took a closer look, I found that the small nest I saw at first was submerged in the water, and the birds that wanted to build their nests had already given up here.
A thin layer of turbid water overflowed from the pond, and the slowly flowing mountain water pooled under the grass and trees between the rocks and soaked the path underfoot, making it a little slippery to step on.
Chen Yu walked down quickly and stopped after a while.
All he could see was a wall of rocks in front of him, one foot, sixty-seven feet high, thick and wet soil, with broken wooden stakes stuck in it, and branches, leaves and tree trunks stretching out everywhere.
This reminded him of Pingyu in March. At that time, he also encountered a rock slide, but only a small piece collapsed, which was far less than what he saw.
And this time it also happened in a mountain forest with few people.
It is also some distance away from Yunhe Temple.
Looking up from a distance, following the soil layer, I saw a depression across the mountain. Under the piles of fallen rocks and mud, I could still find a few wild animals that had half-expanded their heads out, but had long since lost their sound.
He tried digging with a hoe. Since it had just stopped raining not long ago, the iron hoe stuck to the hoe after digging for a few times.
Standing on the ground, he took a few steps to the top of the soil layer and looked around.
The area affected by the landslide was somewhat beyond expectation, and not far behind the rocks, he could vaguely see several blockages with the same falling earth and rocks. The trees at the foot of the mountain were partially sluggish, but it still soaked most of Qingtai Mountain's feet.
, the original green shade of trees is gone, only the dull yellow remains.
This makes it difficult to clean it completely. The blockage in March was not serious and it took only two days to deal with it, but the old method cannot be used for the current one.
Chen Yu thought for a while and jumped back to the ground. He planned to clear out the middle area near the mountain road first. As for the remaining mud and rocks on both sides, it didn't matter if he left them alone for the time being.
There are no fields involved here, so you don’t have to worry about food being destroyed, so you only need to satisfy him as he goes up and down the mountain.
After thinking about it, I spent some time using a hoe to dig a medium-sized depression in the center of the siltation, about as deep as a man.
He raised his head and looked at the sky. He didn't waste any more time. Several blocked areas in this area had to be cleared. Even if he only took the middle road, it would still take a lot of energy and time to dig down bit by bit.
Taking out the stone talisman, there was Qi stored inside, and when it was activated, it gradually emitted a misty white mist that was visible to the naked eye.
It's very light and feels warm and cool on the palm of your hand.
call out!
Throwing the stone talisman into the soft mud, Chen Yu held the hoe and stepped back a few steps.
After just five or six breaths, a soft white fluffy cotton-like halo burst out from the gap between the excavated earth and rocks.
Boom!
Listening to the dull sound, he waited for a while before walking back. However, he did not enter to check the situation, but directly threw three more stone talismans.
Boom! Boom!
The last sound came, slightly clearer than the previous ones. He raised his eyebrows and finally smiled, but the rocks in front of him were exploded, mud and rocks flew, and strands of Qi remained in the air, which quickly dispersed in an instant.
A larger passage appeared, reaching directly to the opposite side. Four stone symbols took over and the entire siltation area collapsed.
Chen Yu had already expected this. These stone talismans, which he called collapsing mountain talismans, had just been made, and their power was actually average. It would take several of these soft mud-breaking stones to be effective, which was far from the word collapsing mountain in the name.
But it was still a hope. As long as the corresponding patterns and magic circles continued to be improved, he believed that sooner or later, he would be able to reach the point where a talisman could collapse a mountain.
After that, he cleared away some of the remaining debris, made the road clear again, and continued walking to the next place.
…
boom!
"What the hell, why is there thunder again?"
At the foot of Qingtai Mountain, in a muddy siltation area, seven or eight village households are scattered, each holding a hoe and a rake, hooking and rolling away the soil.
"Yesterday, the thunder was really loud. It was so loud that it scared my dog so much that he almost peed." The villagers chatted among themselves, digging soil in their hands and tamping it into their pockets. As they talked, others came to pick.
Fall on your shoulders somewhere else.
"No, the rice vat at home was almost broken."
"And the yellow dog at the entrance of the village kept whining all night, which was really noisy."
"This is nothing. I heard from the boss of the Li family that several of his chickens were so frightened that they kicked their legs. His wife was so distressed that she couldn't sleep a wink all night."
Rumble!
While they were chatting, the roar started again, one after another. This time, not only they heard it, but everyone else also looked up. Some people looked up at the sky, but they saw it was clear and not covered by any clouds.
what happened?
Are there so many drought thunders today?
At this time, the farmer with sharp ears looked towards Qingtai Mountain hidden behind the trees as if he had discovered something.
The thunderous sound was transmitted from it.
Boom! Boom!
The sound got closer and louder, reminding everyone of yesterday's thunder, which was a terrifying power engraved deep in their hearts.
At this moment, it seemed as if thunder struck down beside me.
And with the last burst of thunder, the accumulated earth and rocks in front of us trembled one after another, and then slowly collapsed.
Smoke and mud were flying everywhere. The farmers at the head had never seen such a scene before. They were dumbfounded and murmured to themselves:
