139 The wind and rain are like dark, the sun is shining in the sky
"Gentleman, could it be that the golden-armored crocodile king is responsible for the strong winds and waves on the river?"
"There is no evil spirit, so it shouldn't be."
After thinking about it, Wei Hao said again, "The Golden-armored Crocodile King is not strong enough. At this scale, ghosts and immortals cannot see it. At least it is in the realm of earthly immortals, so maybe it is not enough."
It can be said that it is a fairy...
It's hard to say. The only god Wei Hao has ever talked to is the Incarnation of National Destiny. Judging from the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, the power of the Incarnation of National Destiny is truly remarkable.
But there is no reference to what level of strength the incarnation of the national destiny is among the gods.
As for "human immortals", Wei Hao now knows very well that cultivators and immortals who can practice magic and cast spells are still humans in essence, not immortals.
But the reason why Wei Hao couldn't draw a conclusion was simple. After the decline of the national destiny, the injured incarnation of the national destiny also turned into a meteor shower and scattered in all directions. At this time, it would not be impossible if some gods weaker than it appeared.
Immortals have vast magical powers, transcendental beings, and can travel around the world with just one thought.
How should I deal with such a strong person?
The dog in his arms was still thinking about how to grill the crocodile tail, but he didn't know that his training partner was thinking about how to kill the immortal.
Even though one person and one dog were standing by the river, watching the storm, they were still quite helpless...
Wind and rain surrounded Dachaozhou, and the tide became more and more fierce. Wei Hao frowned. He felt that things were getting a little strange, because he stood on the bank of the Nan'an River and found that the autumn flood tide was rushing north of the river crazily, while the Nan'an River was
The reeds beside it have been submerged.
A two-foot-long reed actually sank in the river. Jiangbei... so what?
"Gentleman, why do I think this is a big flood?"
"Don't think this is a big flood."
The river embankment is at a high place, but the river tide is getting faster and faster. According to this scale, Wei Hao feels that few states and counties can handle it.
Fortunately, the food supply in Wufeng County has been harvested. The floods have passed through the border and will probably be limited when it reaches my hometown.
But, will something happen to this big Chaozhou...?
He came here this time because of the Golden-armored Crocodile King, but he never expected to be blocked by this natural disaster.
"Swim over!"
After saying that, Wei Hao was about to jump into the river.
"No! I don't want to be a drowned dog! It's too late to make a decision after the bird comes back and explains the situation."
The dog was extremely frightened. The gentleman was just chewing the monster wisdom pearls like jelly beans, but it couldn't do it. A normal person would explode and die after eating the wisdom pearls. Who would just stuff the alchemy ingredients directly into his mouth.
If you jump into a river, you will definitely only be able to show a dog's head.
But there are still big storms?
A wave came over and the dog's head was submerged on the spot.
Wei Hao thought about it, so he gave up.
At this time, under the eaves of an ordinary house in Dachaozhou, a swallow that was covered in bruises moved twice. After a long time, the swallow came to life.
"Sister, it's awake, it's awake."
"Feed some water, put the caught locusts aside, and scatter some wheat. Saburo, be careful and step on the ladder."
"Um."
The ladder was leaning against the wall of the house. The eldest girl was holding on to it, and the little boy climbed up. After a while, a small wine cup was stuffed under the eaves, filled with half and half of water.
There was a leaf on the edge, and on the leaf were newly caught locusts, grasshoppers, and a small handful of wheat.
After all this was done, the boy got off the ladder and followed his sister to carry the ladder back to its original place.
"We finally have swallows to make a nest in our house."
"What are you thinking about? It's already autumn, so it must be injured. When it gains strength, it will definitely fly away."
"where to?"
"Go to the south. The winter in the south is warm and you can survive the winter."
"Is it the same as the wild geese?"
"Um."
"That's the migratory bird that Mr. said."
The boy with a sky-high bun ran back under the eaves, raised his head and said longingly: "We saved it, and next year, it will definitely come back to make a nest."
"Spring comes. When spring comes, the willow trees will sprout."
"I really want to come to spring soon."
"It's early. There are still several months left. When we celebrate the New Year and get tired of eating rice cakes, the swallows will come."
After the two siblings left, the swallow adjusted its posture, looked at the worm and the wheat, blinked, and saw that the worm did not eat it, so it knocked down a grain of wheat, then fluttered its wings and flew away.
“Dachaozhou is so vast, I don’t even know where to live.”
Yan Xuanxin was a little worried, but he was still excited at this moment. He actually broke through Tianwei. Except for the ancestor, no one in his family would dare to do this.
"Still tough after a thousand hardships!"
"Let the wind blow from east to west, from north to south!"
The swallows crowed very happily, "As expected of a scholar, he can also write poems to encourage me."
Recalling the fear in the storm and lightning before, Wei Hao's courage became her courage, and after that, this gifted poem became her own courage in the future.
Under the sun, the black wings shone with a little bit of gold powder. This was an improvement in her spiritual practice, a magical power she had gained through sudden enlightenment. It just couldn't hurt people, but made her better able to withstand wind, rain, thunder and lightning.
After flying for a while, Yan Xuanxin suddenly realized something. She was flying from the north and south of the Yangtze River. It was obviously night, and it was windy and rainy. Why was it that it was sunny in Dachaozhou?!
Looking up, the sun is indeed the sun, but it is very strange. It does not look like the real sun is shining high, but someone has used a mirror to project the sun here.
Not only was it projected, it was also enlarged.
"Oops……"
Yan Xuanxin immediately felt that things were not simple, because many broad-leafed flowers, plants and trees around him had withered, and some puddles had dried up.
The wells in Dachaozhou City are filled with long queues of people passing through to fetch water.
The moat outside the city is also filled with carts pulling buckets, mostly people coming to fetch water.
The wetland dried up completely, and the water grass turned yellow very quickly. A shallow shoal spread out and became a grassland. Then, due to the transpiration of water vapor, the scenery in the distance was distorted.
Thinking of the phantoms of the heavenly soldiers and generals he saw, Yan Xuanxin couldn't help but guess: Could it be that the heavens were showing their power?
My ancestor once said that when the national destiny of the Great Xia Dynasty was prosperous, most of the decrees issued by heaven were blocked by the incarnation of the national destiny. Whether it was clouds and rain or rivers changing their courses, they could all be resisted.
This is "man can conquer nature".
There was even a time when a god asked someone to be a god in a dream. After the governor reported the matter, the king was displeased and instead made someone else a god.
The human race is strong because they are indeed brave.
There are very few demons who dare to do this.
At that moment, Yan Xuanxin wondered if Heaven was taking this opportunity to show off its power and show off the power of the gods.
After destroying a large Chaozhou, who dares to disobey the power of Heaven?!
"The decline of national fortunes is really unpredictable."
Not caring about so much, Yan Xuanxin circled around and searched, looking for the local Dragon King Temple, River Temple and other places. Wei Hao told her that Bai Chen came from a poor family and that the ancestral fiefdoms had dried up and turned into ten thousand acres of fertile land.
, but the temple dedicated to it is still there.
With these details, it is much easier to find.
She first searched for low-lying areas, which were low-lying and narrow, mostly because the rivers had dried up in the past.
The reason why we are not looking for 10,000 acres of fertile land is that there are thousands of acres of fertile land everywhere in Dachao Prefecture. There is no unproductive land in the entire Dachao Prefecture.
Searching all the way, the sight made her feel a little nervous. There were local dragons wailing in many temples, and they obviously sensed something was wrong.
There are several ancient wells where the Jing Dragon King drags his family with him and pulls a cart to pull water from the river.
There is no way, there is no water in the Dragon King's house.
The dragon woman transformed into an old human lady, pushing the cart as she walked, complaining: "You old useless old man, you got the title of Dragon King for nothing, and you have to fetch water by yourself. It's really embarrassing!"
"Oh, I am the Dragon King who was granted the title of a human master. How much water I use depends on how much money my family has. Is it possible for me to risk my life and fill the well?"
"You damn old man, what are you talking about? Bah, bah, bah, you don't know what to say in broad daylight!"
Long Po complained, and when she heard what the Dragon King said, she blamed her again and again. It was obvious that the relationship between husband and wife was very good.
"Don't say it's broad daylight. The sun doesn't look real to me. It's almost the same as when the sun hit the sun back then."
"I didn't see seven or eight suns."
"Then haven't you seen how big the sun is?"
The dragon king is old and it is very difficult to pull the cart. The two little dragons are dressed as teenagers. They are the sons of the dragon king and the dragon lady, who hatched them with great difficulty.
The two little dragons looked up at the sky and said, "Dad, I heard from the sociologist in the village that this is a change of nature. Maybe the gods can't stand it and want to punish the human world."
"It's okay to pull it off. Several gods have appeared here."
The Dragon King was so tired that he was out of breath. His mouth was dry and his mouth was dry. The gourd contained his own well water. He wanted to take a sip. Seeing that Long Po kept wiping his sweat, he unscrewed the lid of the gourd and handed it over:
"You, a mother-in-law, respond when you are thirsty. Why can't I feed you?"
"Old man, have you drank?"
"I've already had a few big gulps." After saying that, the Dragon King smacked his mouth and said, "Save a mouthful for Da Lang Er Lang."
"Dad, we are not thirsty."
"Dad, let me pull the cart. We're almost at the river. I'll pull it for a while."
"Go away, I'm very fierce. Jiangdong Wei Xiang is here, I dare to compete with him."
After saying this, the Dragon King put on the reins again and continued to walk forward like a beast.
After walking for a while, he heard several sounds in his ears.
Next to the ancient well, many old women from the village were carrying buckets and looking around. Seeing that the well was almost full of water, they all clasped their hands in front of the small shrine next to the ancient well, and then asked the Well Dragon King for blessing.
"Lord Dragon, please wish me good weather. Your rice cakes and wild vegetable cakes will be indispensable for next spring."
"Lord Dragon, please don't cut off the water in your well, old man."
…
The voice of praying for blessings soon reached my ears, and the Dragon King pulling the cart suddenly said "Hey", and then shouted: "Whether we can eat the rice cakes to start the spring depends on whether our family can work harder! Old woman, you use
Push harder!"
"Come on, come on, you are useless. You are so weak to pull an empty bucket. How dare you compete with the elephants of Jiangdong Wei? If someone comes here, they will spit on you and beat you to death..."
While cursing and complaining, Luang Po wiped his sweat and gave the water hyacinth to the two boys beside him: "Drink a few sips quickly, don't be tired, how can you study when your throat is smoking?"
"Mom, why do we need to study?"
"Didn't you hear what the prodigal son of the Bai family said? His brother-in-law said that if you don't want to be deceived by scholars, you have to study more. Who is his brother-in-law? You don't know yet."
"Wei Xiangxiang."
"The reptile from the south in front of me was scolded by Brother Bai so much that he didn't dare to reply, just because Brother Bai is Wei Xiangxiang's brother-in-law. What kind of reputation is this? That reptile is a demon king, and he is so cowardly.
."
"You guys, stop following... Oh, forget it, although Bai Dalang is a prodigal, it's really nice to come back this time. Last time your father passed by his house, he even invited him to stop and take care of food and drink.
I also gave him ten taels of silver."
Luang Po was a little happy when he talked about this, "It's a pity that there is only one girl in his family. If there were a few more, I would be able to arrange marriages for you no matter what."
"But you can pull it off, you just saw that the Bai family brother has grown hair now. Before, he said that he was sitting on nothing, and his family fortune will be lost sooner or later. He also said that it is better to sink the ground immediately than to have a long stream of water. Our family only has one well, but the family fortune passed down from generation to generation...
…”
"Bah! Now and then, what do you know, you old loach? Pull your car!"
Gu Xi
While talking, I met several people pulling carts on the road, all of them were Jing Longwang.
They all know each other and have been friends for many generations. They are both gods in ancient wells and deep pools. Of course, they are also poor buddies.
"Your Gaojiazhuang also has no water supply?"
"Don't talk about Gaojiazhuang, Zhangjiawan just dried ducks and played with them. All the fish died. Now the food reserves for the New Year are not available."
"Zhangjiawan has 40 to 50 acres of water surface!"
The Dragon King was immediately shocked, "I was thinking of going to Zhangjiawan to borrow water in the end."
"No, there is no hope. The sun is poisonous today and all the water supply in the city has been cut off. Those rich men are all asking the city god to buy water."
"Where did the City God get the water?"
The Dragon King was immediately frightened. When the moat ran out of water, it was called "Huang". The territory governed by the city god had no water.
Only the magistrates of human dynasties are in charge of water.
"The concubine that the City God took in last year was a girl from the Gu family who died the year before last. This girl was the youngest daughter of Gu Shilang, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Although she was a concubine, she had a dream to hold the wedding banquet. Isn't the City God well-informed?
Well, we carried a lot of water from Gujiadaiyin soldiers early and stored it."
"My mother!!"
The Dragon King, who was wiping his sweat, was stunned. This operation was a harmony of yin and yang.
The City God originally could not make much money in the world, but now he is able to make a lot of money.
A group of Jinglong Kings were all envious, but they still worked hard to solve their own problems.
Although they are all well dragon kings, there is a huge gap between the rich and the poor. For the well dragon kings in old villages like theirs, one well is provided by more than ten or twenty households, or even less, maybe seven or eight.
Households.
But the Well Dragon King in the city is completely different. A well can be drilled two feet wide, and it can also be equipped with several water troughs and pumps. There is no other reason than that all the wells in the city are connected to the water veins and there is a lack of water.
It is a small probability event.
Therefore, ancient wells in cities and towns are often used for hundreds of years and manage hundreds of people. How can they become bitter?
That's why the Jing Dragon King in the countryside has to drag his family and his family to borrow water, while the Jing Dragon King in the city can just pay for it and that's it.
If something can be solved with money, can it be called a problem?
Suddenly, a Jing Dragon King slapped his thigh: "Damn it, this city god is not authentic!!"
As soon as these words came out, more than a dozen Jinglong Kings were stunned, and then they also reacted: "Sigh! It's really true!"
It can be regarded as jointly protecting the soil and water, right?
You can't see it when you raise your head but you can't see it when you lower your head. You're so damn well-informed, but you just want to make money by living alone?
We all have no money here!
"Don't be so fucking stupid and get some water quickly!"
He took the gourd from Long Po, shook it, and found that most of it was still there. The Dragon King turned and glared at Long Po, who in turn glared at him.
The couple turned their heads again and glared at the two children.
The two little dragons chuckled, but they still felt confident: "Brother Bai said that filial piety is good and kindness is the best. In the future, when we go out to explore, we will inevitably encounter difficulties, and those with kind hearts will help us."
"Do you also listen to what the prodigal son says?"
"Brother Bai and his brother-in-law are Wei Xiangxiang."
"..."
King Long Jing was speechless for a moment, but he had to admit that he would be the one to discipline him, but he would have been a country bumpkin in a few hundred years, so what kind of knowledge could he have? He looked up and saw the sky was as big as an ancient well; he opened his legs and more than a dozen families walked over easily.
If there were peace, that would be fine.
There is no guarantee that there will be a natural or man-made disaster, or even a war, and the entire village will be completely destroyed.
If the people are gone, what’s the use of the well?
The dissipation of the popularity fireworks is not the useless ending of the gods.
At that moment, Jing Dragon King sighed, rubbed his neck and said rather stubbornly: "You must learn well!"
"I know, Dad."
For a time, the houses of the dozen or so well dragon kings pulling carts on the dry river bed were all quiet. The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and they really didn't have the energy to make any more noise.
At this time, a swallow circled down and said, "Excuse me, when I flew by just now, I heard you talking about the dragon clan with the surname Bai? I wonder if it's Master Bai Chen?"
"Um?"
There was a Dragon King in the Well who was wearing a short robe. His ancestral dragon robe was thrown onto the cart, and the Dragon King's crown was also taken off. The crown was really shaking uncomfortably, so it would be better to wear a turban as a whole.
"You are not a local Yanzi, are you? Judging from your accent, why do you have a bit of it from both the north and the south?"
"I flew here from Zuoyang Mansion and came to visit Master Bai Chen on the orders of Wei Xiangxiang, the 'Red Hero Scholar'. But according to what you think, Master Bai is still Wei Xiangxiang's wife and uncle?"
"What's wrong?"
"Hey, could it be that Bai Dalang is bragging about himself? In fact, there is no such marriage?"
"That's right. He is a prodigal son who is living in vain. Wei Xiangxiang won the imperial examination sooner or later. How can he be considered worthy of his family? Is he missing something to eat or something to wear?"
"Don't be so careless. A group of useless poor men have arranged for Bai Dalang."
The dragon mother glared at a group of well dragon kings, and several other dragon women also came over to help. After a while, the poor dragon kings all shut up.
Being short of money, the Dragon Prince had to lower his head.
"Swallow, go west. If you see a piece of fertile land with a small temple in the middle, that is where the Bai family lives."
"I just flew here from the west and stayed at a house for a while."
"Oh, the Bai family is a little depressed now. If you see some dirtbags nearby, don't think they are grave mounds. They are the wild villa of the nearby 'Baojiaxian'."
"Ah? How could he, a dragon clan, be like this?"
"..."
"..."
"..."
The Jing Dragon Kings, who had been silenced by their wives, now turned even redder and cursed in their hearts: Where did this little bird come from? It's not big, but its mouth is quite poisonous.
Yan Xuanxin was outspoken. When he saw that the faces of the Jing Dragon Kings were wrong, he immediately realized that he had made a mistake and said quickly: "I'm sorry, I'm not saying that you guys are not doing well..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
The faces of several Jing Dragon Kings were so red that they turned purple and turned black. They wanted to show themselves and dig into the ground, then hide in and never come out again.
Whose swallow is this? It’s really annoying!
"I'm sorry, what about that...thank you for letting me know. I'm sorry to bother you."
Yan Xuanxin flew away quickly. She was afraid that if she continued talking, the Jing Dragon Kings would get angry.
Seeing that everyone's face was ashen, it was obvious that they really said something that hurt their heart.
After fluttering their wings and flying away, a few of the poor buddies of the Jing Dragon King began to scold: "The fairies from out of town just lack discipline!"
"If I hadn't been a little thirsty now, I would have taught her a lesson just now!"
"When I come back from borrowing water, I'll have sex with her again!"
When Long Po saw these poor men blowing again, he immediately said sarcastically: "Look at you guys, you have all flown away and said such harsh words. Just you few, you might as well be flapping your wings without seeing them."
Others are blessed with divine light? Those who have experienced hardships and sharpened their spirits. A group of braggarts who can't pay taxes, hurry up and pull the cart!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
It was very helpless. Although the Jinglong Kings felt that they were losing face, they still pulled up the car honestly.
Speaking of Potian, he first went to Jianghu to rescue him.
After walking for a while, a dragon mother said: "Hey, it's all these useless people. I should have asked the flying girl just now. Is the sun like this outside the place she came all the way?"
sinister?"
"What's there to ask? There's no sun in the sky. Isn't the sun in other places the sun in Dachaozhou?"
"Shut your mouth! Pull the cart!"
"Why!"
After saying goodbye to a group of Jing Dragon Kings who were borrowing water, Yan Xuanxin returned the same way. She never expected that she would go in such a big circle.
It turned out that the Bai family was right where I came in.
In this scene, thirty miles west of the city of Dachao Prefecture, in a piece of low-lying farmland, there was indeed a small temple surrounded by a fence.
It's said to be a temple, but it's actually not big. It's just one room. It's just painted well and surrounded by willow trees in the front and back. Although the trees are not big, they look decent.
There are many earthbags around the temple. The earthbags should be left behind by building ridges. Most of them are the holes of hedgehogs, weasels, frogs and toads.
There are also some inconspicuous, docile and non-venomous snakes, such as the green snake. They feel hot after sitting in the earth bag nest for a while, so they can stay under the small willow tree in the temple for a while, which will make them much more comfortable.
When Yan Xuanxin saw this, he knew he had found the right one.
He dived directly towards the small house. The moment he landed, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed.
I can see the willow trees in the front yard and back yard, and there are lush hills all around. It is really a geomantic treasure land, and it is really comfortable to live here.
"Girl, where did you come from?"
There was a swing under the willow tree, and there was a woman in green clothes on the swing, holding a scroll in her hand, and then looked curiously at Yan Xuanxin who had turned into a human form.
"I am here to inform Mr. Bai Chen on the orders of the 'Red Hero Scholar' Wei Xiangxiang. I wonder if this is his residence?"
"But you're here to welcome Sister Bai? Oh, it's great, you finally found a decent family!"
"Uh... I was ordered to find Mr. Bai."
"If Wei Xiangxiang doesn't marry White Lady, why does he come to Bai Dalang?"
"It's important."
After Yan Xuanxin said that, he walked forward and prepared to knock on the door. But when he reached the door, he heard noise coming from inside.
"Open! Open! Open! Open! Open! Three sixes, haha, give me money, give me money!"
"Brother Bai, you've really gained a lot of skills by going out now."
"Nonsense, apart from finding a husband for my sister, I have no time to spare. Does Beiyang Mansion know? It is a prosperous place, and I have stopped playing dice for a long time. Pai Gow, mahjong, horse racing...
It has everything you need, even sumo wrestling and wrestling, it’s not to mention how interesting it is.”
"According to me, brother, the most powerful thing this time is that he has gained magical powers and is smelling of incense."
"That's what happened to me. I don't usually show up casually, but he followed Wei Xiangxiang to cut mountains and destroy temples in the Dry Bone Mountain. This is a 'good man and a woman of faith' picked up for free."
"No wonder I don't have to worry about the lack of water at home now."
"Hehe, this is also my ancestor's blessing, my ancestor's blessing..."
In the yard, Bai Chen smiled proudly, while outside the door, Yan Xuanxin looked incredulous: Wei Xiangxiang really wants to marry such a little sister? It's better to marry yourself, so as to make progress on your own.
The woman in green clothes under the willow tree looked embarrassed, then stepped forward and said: "Come with me, the Bai family is my family's family friend..."
Then he pushed the door open and saw several young people pushing each other on stools and playing with money around the table.
Pointing to a young man covered in brocade, with a fan stuck in the back of his neck and a peony on his head, the woman in green said, "This is Bai Chen."
"..."
Yan Xuanxin resisted and turned away. Although his eyes were disgusted, he still said: "Mr. Bai, I have been ordered by the 'Red Hero Scholar' Wei Xiangxiang to inform you that Wei Xiangxiang has arrived in the south of the Yangtze River, in Zuoyang Mansion."
