The sky was gray and the rain was still falling, but it was not as violent as it was at the beginning.
Xuzhou City, which was destroyed by floods, has long lost its previous bustle and bustle. There are ruins everywhere, as well as cattle, sheep and livestock that drowned in the floods, as well as the corpses of human beings.
When the envoy from the capital of Jizhou rushed to Xuzhou with Emperor Shun's imperial edict, Gun was already guarding the city gate.
They were polite to each other, and after Gun received the imperial edict, he didn't show much else. Originally, even without this imperial edict, Gun would still arrange the water control matters on his own.
Things became more complicated after that. After many investigations, Gun finally decided to build a dike and cast a dam to block the flood.
Although this method is effective and has a short construction period, it treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Once there is another heavy rain and the river water level rises again, it will probably be even more terrible than before the flood control.
But poor Gun didn't consider this, or he didn't know it at all. When he realized this in the future, he had no chance to speak again.
As the saying goes, a clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. Although the Chinese race has a large population, the river is too long. Even if the entire Chinese race builds dams, it will be difficult to achieve results in a short time.
In desperation, Gun hurriedly left Xuzhou and rushed to the mountain forest where he met the god when he was a child, hoping to find the god to help him build a dam.
But when he arrived here, he found that the mountain forest was overgrown with weeds, and the Taoist temple where he used to practice was even more dilapidated. It had obviously been vacant for many years.
In desperation, Gun knelt down in front of the Taoist temple and bowed respectfully three times. He got up and left.
At this moment, a slightly older voice came from the empty mountain forest: "If you want to find a way to build a dike, you should go to Penglai Island in the East China Sea!"
At the same time, a golden rune floated out and shot towards Penglai Island in the East China Sea.
Gun was overjoyed, bowed to the mountains and forests again, and hurried to the East China Sea following the golden light.
At the same time, Li Qingming, who was basking in the sun on Penglai Island, felt a throbbing in his heart for no reason.
Surprised, Li Qingming quickly calculated with his hands. But as the seals on his hands changed, Li Qingming frowned more and more. Finally, he simply cursed: "Who is plotting against me, my sister?"
At this moment, the secret was in a fog, and it was obviously disturbed by someone.
But if you want to hide it from Li Qingming, there are only a few people in the entire land of China. Hongjun counts one, Yang Mei counts one. Xuanhu barely has this qualification.
But when Li Qingming thought about it, Yangmei had no reason to do this, and Xuanhu didn't have the courage. Then the only one left was Daozu Hongjun.
The more he thought about it, the more he realized that this was the case. Li Qingming yelled: "Damn it, you dug a hole and I have to jump in? Don't push me too hard. If you push me too hard, I'll pull you down too!"
It was such a coincidence that just when Li Qingming was scolding her, Hongjun was also staring at the jade plate of creation that was obviously missing a large piece in front of him, with a heart-stopping light flashing from time to time in his gray and turbid eyes.
Half a month later, when Gun followed the guidance of the golden runes and came to the East China Sea, he found that that was not the case at all. There was no Penglai Island, it was obviously an empty sea.
Unwilling to give up, Gun floated back and forth over the waters, but still found nothing.
Li Qingming on Penglai Island has been sitting in front of the Hall of Life every day since he felt that he was being plotted by Hongjun half a month ago, staring at the situation outside Penglai Island.
He had reason to believe that even the saints could not enter the formation on Penglai Island, so the trouble must come from outside the island.
On this day, Li Qingming suddenly discovered that there was a human race flying around outside the island, and its trajectory happened to be on the edge of the entire Penglai Island.
After doing some calculations in my mind, I realized that this guy was the famous unlucky man who controlled floods, the founder of the Great Xia Dynasty and the father of Dayu, Gun.
"What is he here for?" Li Qingming frowned and whispered: "In my previous life, I heard that Gun used the method of blocking water to control the water. This project is too huge, even if the entire clan uses the strength of the whole family, it will take ten or eight years.
Oh... that's right, Xirang! Let me tell you, how could this Hongjun plot against me for no reason? Damn, you took away just this little thing..."
Having said this, Li Qingming gently flicked his sleeves. Gun, who was wandering around outside the island, felt his eyes darken. When he woke up again, the environment around him had changed drastically.
Gun stared at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and he was shocked.
"Ahem..." Li Qingming coughed twice, speechlessly, and said to Gun: "This is Penglai Island!"
Gun, who came back to his senses, looked at the slightly familiar Taoist in front of him, smiled honestly, and saluted, "Gun from the human race, I have seen the Immortal Master!"
"I know why you're here!" Waving his hand, Li Qingming took out a dozen grains of breath soil from his arms and threw it to Gun: "This thing is called Jiutian Xi soil. Just mix one grain into the soil and throw it into the river.
On both sides, you can build a long embankment of thousands of miles. Just take it!"
"This...!" Looking at the dozen or so sparse tiny particles in front of him, Gun took them in disbelief.
Suddenly, he felt his hands suddenly feel heavy. Considering his arm strength of 1,000 kilograms, he actually needed to lift a full 50% of his strength to hold a few grains of soil.
Only at this moment did he believe that what the Taoist in front of him said was true. He quickly bowed his head and knelt down and said, "Thank you, senior, for the gift!"
Li Qingming nodded, waved his hand again, and Gun disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the empty Penglai Island, Li Qingming touched his smooth chin and said in his heart: "Well, you Taoist ancestor Hongjun, you can't let me recover blood in vain! No, I have to ask you to reason!"
Thinking of this, he cut through the space with one hand and flew away.
Looking at the human race again, when Gun opened his eyes and looked around again, he had already arrived at the bank of the Yellow River in Xuzhou.
Seeing that the water of the Yellow River was about to overflow the river again, Gun did not dare to neglect. He found a solid piece of mud on the spot, took out a grain of soil and stuffed it in. Then he threw it to both sides of the river.
"Boom!"
The soil, mixed with particles, rose crazily after falling on the ground. A small ball of soil that was originally only the size of a fist suddenly became as big as a mountain, and it continued to spread to the left and right.
The mountains were rumbling, and all the newly formed peaks were moving, quickly taking root on the river.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the endless mountains completely blocked the river, everyone could only hear the water of the Yellow River and the sound of the roaring waves lapping the shore.
The dam forced the water of the Yellow River to return to its proper place, and blocked the river to store water, providing a source of irrigation for crops. All the human races cheered and kowtowed to Gun Fu.
Gunhun waved his hand carelessly, and quickly came to several other large inland rivers. According to this method, the water of the long rivers was blocked.
All the human races missed Gun's kindness in controlling the floods, so they set up immortality rankings for Gun and worshiped him day and night.
It's a pity that the ignorant human race doesn't know this. Gun's method can only solve the problem temporarily. In the long run, the flood will definitely break out again, and I'm afraid it will be much bigger than it is now.
There is a bright cave at the bottom of the Yellow River, which was blocked by Gun.
This cave house under the river is built tightly against the river bed. The main structure of the cave house is composed of a single piece of huge jade. The exquisite gate is made of golden gold.
On both sides, there are two giant dragon stone sculptures rising up from the pillars.
There is a narrow path in front of the gate, completely paved with crystals. The dragon stone carvings are inlaid with strings of pearls. Each one is as big as a dragon's eye, blooming with a faint light. Looking from a distance, it gives people a sense of wonder.
It feels like jewels.
At this moment, in the cave, Soaring Snake escaped from the Demon Suppression Tower and stared at the water-type monsters lined up on both sides of the cave.
Perhaps Teng Snake was staring at him with hair all over his body. A fat man with a short stature and a smiling face walked out with his body trembling and said: "Your Majesty, I don't know where this Gun got the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil from, and blocked it."
All the river channels that were previously washed away by the flood have been destroyed. The water cannot wash out of the river channels, and there is nothing we can do!"
"So, you just sit around in this cave, drinking wine and tasting delicious delicacies?" Teng She mocked unceremoniously: "You are just a bunch of drunkards! You have lived in vain for hundreds of millions of years.
!So what if Gun can move mountains? Won't you think of ways to build big barrels and dams to control the water?"
A look of displeasure appeared on the fat man's face, and his voice became colder: "We are trash, so who are you? You ran out for no reason and asked me to wait for the aquatic spirit to follow your orders. What qualifications do you have to say that?
?I've had enough of you for a long time!"
The expressions of the other old water tribe monsters all changed, and they closed their mouths knowingly as they looked at Teng Snake's increasingly darker face.
"Hahaha, okay! Who am I?" Teng She laughed angrily, her eyes suddenly turned cold, and she drew two extremely clear arcs in the sea water with one hand.
"hold head high!"
Thousands of water dragons suddenly sprang up from the center of the arc. They bared their teeth and claws, their beards swayed wildly, their dragon roars shocked the sky, and they pounced directly on the fat monster.
"Hmph, you dare to play with my Crab Pincer, you are seeking death!" Crab Pincer sneered, and his whole body expanded instantly. Soon it turned into a huge crab, all red in color, as if it was roasted.
The two large pliers in front of him clicked and waved, and they cut directly towards a water dragon flying towards him.
"Click!"
There was a crisp sound, and something shocking happened.
The water dragon thread was not damaged, but the two large pincers of the crab's pliers were directly broken by the water dragon, and there was no possibility of contact. Then thousands of water dragons swarmed up behind it,
In an instant, the sea water boiled violently and the cave trembled violently. The terrifying sound seemed to threaten to collapse the cave.
What a joke. After all, this cave was the original palace of Zhenhe Dragon King, how could it collapse so easily?
After a long time, when the giant dragon stopped roaring, the cave gradually became calm.
I saw that in the main hall, the thousands of water dragons that were raging had completely lost their traces.
The huge and domineering claws of the crab had no good flesh on its body and could not move. All it could do was open and close its huge mouth, muttering to itself:
"How is it possible, how can you be so strong, how is it possible..." (To be continued...)
