Chapter 29 The land master is on top

The rain drizzles.

The heavy rain has not stopped since the previous eight days.

A tree of crows curled up, tightly squeezing their wings, huddling their heads into the black feathers, silently.

The little devil was very happy. He slipped to the bottom of the mountain early in the morning every day, scrambling and rolling in the rain, and when he came back, he was covered in mud.

Li Yu was sitting in the wooden house, reading a book, but it seemed quiet.

Suddenly, a few rains flew from somewhere and slapped her on the face. She was startled first, then looked at the little ghost hiding behind the door and smiled, "Little ghost, I'm messy again. You are not allowed to enter the house if you don't wash it."

The little genius was too lazy to enter the house, so he waved his hand and sprinkled some rain onto Xiao Liyu and ran away quickly, not knowing where he was going to make trouble again.

Zhang Qi stood under the black tree and quietly watched from a distance.

The sound of the thunderous rain hitting the stone seemed to cover the whole world. The dense rain line was steaming with thick rain. In the heavy rain, it seemed that the world was still gently twisting, slightly strange.

"It's so strange. When will this rain stop?" Lao Hei flew down from the treetops with his wings and landed beside Zhang Qi. He shook his feathers, and instantly the fine rain spilled Zhang Qi all over.

"Lao Zhang, go and get a watermelon to eat!" Lao Hei was domineering, "Where is Lao Bai? I haven't eaten his fragrant tea for a long time. I'm so stingy. Let him come out and make a cup of fragrant tea to quench his thirst."

"So much rain, can you just drink it with your mouth open?"

"What do you know? This is rootless water. You will get sick after drinking it."

"You thousand-year-old monster, still care whether you get sick?"

"Why are you talking so much? Can you bring a watermelon over?"

Zhang Qi shrugged, "I'm too lazy to go."

"Why are you so lazy?"

"Stop talking about this, did your black egg hatch?"

"You are so anxious, where is there such a quick one?"

"Just ask, thinking about it, black eggs are considered alien species, and they should be hatched faster than other bird eggs."

"Maybe it's a little slower?"

"Nezha, right?"

"What?"

Zhang Qi was too lazy to explain, so he turned his head and looked away.

There was no sign of stopping the heavy rain, and Zhang Qi couldn't help but frown.

"Lao Hei, did there be such a long rainy season at this time?"

"It seems that there isn't, I didn't pay attention. Anyway, I just think it's raining for quite a short time."

"Then this is strange."

Zhang Qi leaned on his cane and said, "If you want to eat watermelon, just go and do it yourself."

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to go."

At this time, Li Yan was even more worried. He looked up at the sky with a bitter brow, and the sorrow in his heart had already flowed to his face.

When will this rain end? Is it still possible to do the work?

Since the heavy rain, the market has been shut down. I thought it was just one or two days of rain, but I didn’t expect it to take seven or eight days!

Delaying the construction period is a trivial matter. Now the victims working here work every day to get a day of money. If they don’t have work, they can’t let them pay for money, right?

It is also Li Wen who is not too unintentional. Although the wages given to these victims are less than the market price, they are not enough to spend them all after buying food.

Therefore, these victims have survived this period of time with the money they saved some time ago, but how long can they last?

Yesterday someone asked Li Yan when the construction will start, and his family no longer has the money to buy steamed buns and buns.

Li Yan was naturally anxious. Many woods had rotted in this rain, which was a lot of money.

But what's the use of being anxious? Can rush stop the rain?

Can't stop.

At this time, one person walked into the room.

"Master?" the man said respectfully.

Li Nodded, "What's wrong?"

The man said, "Master, just now dozens of disaster victims came to ask questions, saying when will the work start? They also said that they had been hungry for two or three days, and even if it rained, they were happy to do it. Some people even went to Yonghe County to make a living under the heavy rain."

Li Qing frowned.

They were willing to do it, but Li Neng didn't dare let them do it.

It slips very much after it rains. If you don’t pay attention, you may fall off the building that has not been built yet, either dead or broken.

If he dies, Li Wen will be punished.

The man looked at Li Yan's face and frowned and said, "I don't know what's going on this year. It's not like this before this season. Also, I heard from others that it's not raining in Yonghe County, and it's still a sunny day that makes people happy. Could it be that there is a fire in the Dragon King Temple, and the Dragon King Master lures water to put out the fire, so we are suffering from the pond fish?"

Li Neng shouted, "Don't talk nonsense."

The man hurriedly spitted and said a few words to Mr. Dragon King, don’t blame me, and then said, “But Master, the rain this year has been getting too weird, right?”

Li Yan naturally knew that the rain came strangely this year, but what could he do? If the weather is not good, how can humans change it?

The man thought for a while and suddenly said, "Master, maybe we invite a few Taoist priests of You Fang to do a ritual to ask for the sun?"

"What do you want?"

Li Li heard it was "pleading for mercy", but he didn't react and didn't know who should ask for mercy.

"Please be sunny! Please be sunny!"

Li Qing was amused and crying, "I only heard that I was asking for rain, so how could I ask for sunshine?"

"I have to try it. Who knows if it's useful? And I'm just trying to treat a dead horse as a living horse, right?"

Li Qing thought about it carefully and felt that there was no other way than this method now. Although he knew that this ritual would most likely not work, it was better than nothing.

Besides, you can also show the disaster victims the situation. Don’t run away one by one by one. When the weather clears, you have nowhere to look for workers.

Suddenly, his heart moved. If he said that he was looking for a few Taoist priests in You Fang to do rituals, it would be more reliable to find the Land Master.

It is said that the land master manages crops to be prosperous, and in the event of severe drought, they often use the "magic power" of seeking rain. They just don't know whether the land master can have the ability to seek sunshine. They seem to have never heard of the land masters who have used this magical power.

In fact, it is no wonder that Li Yan didn't know that it often rained, it was a good thing. Apart from the disasters caused by heavy rain, no land master would use the "Pangyang" technique, and it would not spread.

He did it as soon as he said that Li Yan had planned to go directly to the mountain, but he felt that he had no sincerity to go alone.

After thinking about it, he pulled a large number of victims to walk towards the hill in the heavy rain. But when he walked one mile away from the hill, he didn't move forward any further.

It’s not that he didn’t want to, but that the victims saw the black tree and did not dare to move forward no matter what, for fear of disturbing the tranquility of the “Crow God”.

Unable to do so, Li Neng asked these people to build a small wooden house to shelter in the rain, light incense in the wooden house, offer tribute, and then bow together.

The victims came, "The Lord of the Crow God is here..."

"It's not the Crow God, it's the Land Master!" Li Yan reminded loudly: "The Mountain God doesn't care about these things!"

The victims looked at each other. Compared to the crow god who showed his power to save them from water and fire, the land master who had never appeared naturally seemed smaller.

But what should I do? This is the one who pays wages.

The victims shouted again:

"The Master of Land is here, I hope the Master of Land is pitiful to us victims. After casting spells, I will go to the continuous rain and the world will be filled with bright sunshine."
