"Tch, why don't you say anything? Justice comes from the heart. You can deceive yourself. Do you think you can deceive others?"
At this time, Xiaowo opened his mouth and said mockingly.
There are only a few people around who really support Hong Bo. Most of them are people because they feel that Hong Bo is doing the right thing and helping to protect Hongzhou City. But now that the facts are there, the nature is completely different.
There was almost no one on his side at this moment.
"Master Hong, we have already come to this point, do you still want to quibble?"
At this time, on a nearby fishing boat, a tanned fisherman couldn't stand it anymore and said in a deep voice.
"If Mr. Chen hadn't seen the problem with his sharp eyes and stopped it in time, we might not have known about it until now."
"Yes, we all chose to let you do this because we believe in you. Aren't you trying to harm us?"
"Mr. Chen, thank you. We didn't know we were destroying the water rhinoceros."
…
Everyone spoke one after another and looked at Chen Shaojun with gratitude. As for Hong Bo on the other side, everyone had long forgotten about him.
Who would care about him at this time? Even if Hong Bo is the son of the Jiangnan governor, it is useless.
Seeing everyone holding the moon in their arms to Chen Shaojun, Hong Bo's face turned blue and white, and his expression was extremely ugly.
He was arrogant by nature and had always been accustomed to being admired by everyone. How could he accept that he suddenly fell from the clouds into dust? Not to mention that Chen Shaojun had ruined his prestige in front of so many people.
"Boy, don't be too proud."
But soon, Hong Bo came back to his senses and calmed down again:
"Although I used the wrong method, my intention was good. Moreover, the problem of water rhinoceros already existed before I found someone to set up this chain array. Even without me, this water rhinoceros array would sooner or later
Collapse, your appearance now has only delayed it for a few days, and it is still treating the symptoms but not the root cause."
"The water rhinoceros problem has not been completely solved, so what's the point of showing off here?"
When Hong Bo said this, his expression became more and more calm. He flicked his sleeves fiercely and quickly looked at the densely packed people on the river near Shuixi. His expression became high again.
"Don't be deceived by him. No matter how much I make mistakes, I am still a native of Hongzhou. If there is a problem with the water rhinoceros, I will try my best to solve it. No matter how powerful this kid is, he is still an outsider."
While speaking, Hong Bo stretched out a finger and pointed directly at Chen Shaojun.
"His father, Chen Zongxi, is a master of Confucianism and Taoism, and everyone respects him. However, the imperial envoys came to our Jiangnan only on errands. When the incident here is over, do you think they will still stay here? They will be of the same mind as me.
Okay? Anyone can talk, and there won’t be a single hair missing anyway, but if you want to repair the water rhinoceros formation eight hundred years ago, boy, let me ask you, can you do it?"
"This water rhinoceros was built with ancient technology eight hundred years ago. It has been lost for a long time now. No one in the whole Jiangnan knows how to do it. Even Mr. Wu Da said he couldn't do it. In the end, I compromised and came up with this idea.
Plant a water-bending magic circle."
"It's just that I used the wrong method, and my nature is not bad. I'll tell you the truth, kid, since you are so powerful, you should solve the problem of Water Rhinoceros, make up for the formation, repair the big hole, and let the cracks heal automatically.
, without any energy impact... Only if you can do this, I will truly convince you."
"If you can't do it... Humph, what's the point of saying so much? Is it any different from what I did? If you can't do it, you'd better get out of here as far as I can."
At the end of the sentence, Hong Bo flicked his sleeves and said unceremoniously.
"Master, this is wonderful!"
Behind, the man who looked like a master had already admitted defeat, but when he heard Hong Bo's words, he couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
Although my young master is arrogant, has always been domineering, and does not look down on others, he is not an embroidered pillow. With just one move and a rake, he directly reversed the situation. He successfully diverted everyone's attention away from the large series of formations he had set up.
Moved to the major issue of the hidden danger of water rhino.
The most important thing is, just looking at the reactions of the people near the river, the young master's actions obviously worked. On the surrounding fishing boats, official boats, and painted boats, everyone looked thoughtful after Mr. Hong's words.
.
In the final analysis, the conflict between Chen Shaojun and Hong Bo is only secondary. What everyone is really concerned about is the giant water rhinoceros that is about to collapse.
In Hongzhou City, nearly a million people are all connected here. This is the most important thing. No one can afford the consequences.
"This kid is too shameless."
Xiaowo squatted on Chen Shaojun's shoulder, dumbfounded.
People who are really shameless are invincible. Although they are really here for the Water Rhinoceros and want to help, but according to Hong Bo, when did repairing the Water Rhinoceros become their responsibility? This has nothing to do with them.
What's the relationship? Chen Shaojun even came here on his own initiative, not even half an official.
"Miss, do you think that little sage will really agree? The problem with the water rhinoceros is quite serious. If there was no other way, we would not agree to Hong Bo building a second water-bending array near the water rhinoceros.
There is no other way.”
In the painting boat, the maid Xiaoyu suddenly said that for some reason, she suddenly had a lot of affection for Chen Shaojun.
——Although in the beginning, she was actually on Hong Bo's side.
"We have searched the entire Hongzhou City before, including other possible cities in Jiangnan, but all the formation drawings have been lost long ago. More than 800 years have passed, and dozens of generations have passed. There is no one who can
This water rhinoceros formation has been repaired."
Maid Xiao Yu said.
"This Water Rhinoceros Formation is indeed at its end. There is no other way. We have tried all possible methods."
The stunning woman from the Fire Phoenix Sect couldn't help but sigh when she heard this.
The defensive formation composed of these eight water rhinoceros not only involves technology from eight hundred years ago, but deep inside these eight water rhinoceros statues, they are all ancient and powerful talisman cores.
In other words, the eight giant water rhinoceros that everyone saw in front of them were actually secondary constructions based on the eight ancient talisman formations.
If there are still many people who know about the formation knowledge from eight hundred years ago, then there are really not many people who know about the formation and talisman knowledge from the ancient times tens of thousands of years ago.
To be precise, there is no one. Even if there were, I'm afraid he wouldn't condescend to come to the human world, Hongzhou City, to help everyone repair the magic circle.
"I hope he will, but the possibility is probably slim."
The stunning woman in fiery red robe said.
"Mr. Chen, can you really cultivate the Water Rhinoceros?"
"Your Majesty is a great scholar who is admired by everyone. He is also an Imperial Envoy. A hero is born out of a young man. There must be a way to do it, right?"
"Sir, please help us no matter what. This water rhinoceros formation cannot be broken no matter what. We have no other option except you."
"Yes, yes. Mr. Chen, please help us."
…
The simplest fishermen around him didn't have such complicated thoughts. After hearing Hong Bo's words, they all looked at Chen Shaojun, their eyes full of prayers.
"Mr. Chen, if you can see the problems with the formation, you must also know how to make up for it, right? If you don't help, we really have nothing to do."
Not far away, an honest fisherman said in a deep voice, and his words represented what everyone was thinking.
"If it can be repaired, our Li family will definitely build a shrine for the young master and worship him for generations to come."
"Yes, yes, if the young master can save the people of our Jiangnan area, he will be a living Bodhisattva. Let's build a living shrine for Mr. Chen together."
Everyone else also said.
On Shui Xi's back, Hong Bo stood with his hands behind his hands. When he saw everyone around him kneeling down and begging Chen Shaojun, he just stood on the sidelines and sneered.
Surprisingly, he was not at all jealous of Chen Shaojun, but looked like he was watching a good show.
Praise and kill!
What is flattery? This is it.
Living temple? Living temple? It’s simply a joke!
What is public opinion? Public opinion is water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it!
Everyone is now chasing after Chen Shaojun. If Chen Shaojun can't do it later, or the water rhinoceros problem becomes more serious and collapses, then the public opinion around him will be the sharpest blade, piercing that boy's heart.
Not only him, but even his father Chen Zongxi may be implicated. Without him taking action at that time, the father and son may be discredited throughout Jiangnan and be despised by everyone.
"Hey, okay! Hong Bo, I promise you."
Just when Hong Bo was secretly proud of himself and was about to see Chen Shaojun's joke, Chen Shaojun suddenly smiled, took a step forward, spoke, and agreed to Hong Bo's request without hesitation.
"But I have a request. If I can repair this water rhinoceros, I want you to get out of here immediately. Listen clearly, get out."
Chen Shaojun said.
Hong Bo laughed when he heard this.
"Haha, let's talk if you can do it."
"Why, don't you dare? Can't you afford to lose?"
Chen Shaojun stared at him and said excitedly, he was determined to teach this kind of person a lesson he would never forget.
It would be difficult for such a proud person to be embarrassed in public by so many people. It must be enough to make him remember this and avoid causing any trouble in the future.
At least until his father had cured the floods in the south of the Yangtze River, Chen Shaojun didn't want such a person to cause trouble in the back and cause a fire in the backyard.
"Hahaha, I can't afford to lose?"
Hong Bo laughed when he heard Chen Shaojun's childish provocation. Did he think he couldn't see Chen Shaojun's intentions?
"No problem, I promise you."
"Young Master Hong!"
On the other hand, the people around him were shocked when they heard this. No one expected that Hong Bo would be so straightforward.
However, Hong Bo just raised his hand and stopped them.
