The ship continued to move forward, gradually heading north, and the environment and vegetation began to change.

It should be that the amount of precipitation has decreased, and it has gradually begun to reach the land with less rain in the north.

However, this wide canal has never changed, which makes people wonder!

After traveling for another five or six days, suddenly there was moist water vapor blowing in, and the ship entered a large lake that stretched as far as the eye could see.

This is really strange!

The surrounding environment has obviously entered the drier land in the north, so how come such a huge lake still exists?

It's really beyond Zheng Tianyou's common sense.

Zheng Tianyou inquired about it and found out that the large lake called Fengze was also an artificial lake developed by the previous dynasty, and it was said to have a radius of 800 miles!

In the previous dynasty, the Great Xia era was filled with spiritual energy, and incense and gods were everywhere.

These gods were enshrined by the imperial court and obeyed the imperial edicts.

At that time, Daxia could almost be regarded as a dynasty of gods. The water vapor in the world was controlled by these gods, so that the rainfall in the north and south would be even.

Coupled with the countless artificial rivers and lakes dug by the Great Xia court with manpower, the so-called floods and droughts were completely dependent on the people, and the people did not know that they were hungry!

However, it is a pity that at the end of the Great Xia, the spiritual energy began to dissipate, and those gods either died or mutated into monsters.

The entire climate regulation system failed, causing countless floods and droughts, causing huge disasters.

The Great Xia court also exhausted its last bit of strength in waves of suppression of demons and civil uprisings, and finally collapsed completely.

After at least hundreds of years of dark and chaotic times, Xuanmen Dongyuan emerged, assisted in the establishment of the new Qi Dynasty, and re-established the order of the world.

However, the former dynasty of Great Xia was protected by all the gods and there were no natural disasters anymore, but we can no longer see it!

Naturally, these historical circumstances cannot be known by businessmen or ordinary people.

It was during his travels that Zheng Tianyou met a scholar who traveled around the world, and he just learned about it from his mouth!

This is a scholar who has already passed the exam. Before taking the exam, he plans to spend several years traveling around the world and looking at the magnificent rivers and mountains.

Although there are not many scholars like this in Daqi, their number is not too small either.

In Zheng Tianyou’s opinion, this really shows the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!

It's a pity that the two of them broke up soon because their paths were different.

Zheng Tianyou suddenly felt that maybe his master did not take him back to Yuantu Mountain Gate, but asked him to rush there. Maybe he had this purpose, right?

It’s not just because things are too urgent and I don’t have time to wait for him!

In any case, this journey experience did have a big impact on Zheng Tianyou.

With this in mind, Zheng Tianyou decided to abandon his boat and go ashore for the rest of the journey, and walk to the gate of Yuantu Mountain on his feet.

This can also be regarded as a kind of tempering and practice for oneself.

The more important reason is that although taking a boat is convenient, it also affects the many wonderful things you can see!

In fact, land transportation in Daqi World is also very developed, although trains have not yet appeared.

But passenger airships have already appeared. However, the range of these passenger airships is not too long, and they are basically short trips within two to three hundred miles.

But since Zheng Tianyou doesn’t even take a boat anymore, he naturally won’t take an airship either.

After docking, I didn't choose any means of transportation, and I didn't even find a horse, so I hurried on.

Fortunately, he is a martial arts practitioner and has very good walking skills. It is no problem that he can travel one or two hundred miles in a day. It is even much faster than taking a boat.

It's just that since Zheng Tianyou has the idea of ​​traveling in his heart, he naturally won't walk so fast, and he is no longer in a hurry to go to Yuantu Mountain Gate. He heard that there are some famous mountains and rivers there, so he wants to take a detour to visit.<

/p>

This will naturally waste more time.

Naturally, we saw more monsters and ghosts along the way!

Although there are Jingyesi in various places in Daqi, the land is vast and cannot be protected along the way like water and land. Naturally, there are many demons.

When Zheng Tianyou encountered monsters on the road, he dealt with them without mercy.

Along the way, he actually killed more than ten monsters.

Fortunately, most of them are just zombies!

On this day, Zheng Tianyou came to a place where a large lake called Yunze was located in ancient times. However, it later dried up and turned into a plain.

Of course, this Yunze Lake, like the Fengze that Zheng Tianyou passed last time, is an artificial lake opened by the previous Dynasty.

It’s just that there is no one left in Fengze who can still maintain its effect. But Yunze has already dried up!

Zheng Tianyou was very interested in the history of the former Great Xia Dynasty. Since he was passing by here, he wanted to pay his respects to the ancient Yunze.

However, after hundreds of years, where the ancient Yunze is located, the lake environment of the past can hardly be seen, but it appears to be quite arid.

The vicissitudes of life are nothing but this!

We can see that the drought here is severe and the soil in the fields is dry and cracked.

Zheng Tianyou also passed by a village and saw that the villagers were dressed in rags and the houses in the village also had earthen walls and thatched roofs, making them look quite poor.

I want to come here because there is drought and little rain all year round, and the people are miserable!

When Zheng Tianyou passed by, these people were beating gongs and drums and carrying colorful sacrifices.

Seeing this, Zheng Tianyou suddenly felt something in his heart: "Are these people going to perform private sacrifices to worship evil gods?"

The reason why he said this is because there are not many serious gods left in Daqi!

Since the demise of the previous dynasty Daxia and the collapse of Shinto, all the gods in the world have fallen.

To put it simply, there are almost no serious gods in the world.

If there are gods appearing somewhere, nine times out of ten they are evil gods.

In other dynasties, although the court did not allow worship of obscene and evil gods, it was generally not too strict, because apart from wasting people and money, there would not be any too troublesome consequences.

But it’s different in Daqi!

And in an environment where evil spirits are rampant like Daqi, these evil gods are probably terrifying existences.

Jingyesi in various places are the top targets for attacking the phenomenon of people's obscene worship. It is not much better than targeting the Changchun Sect!

At this time, it seems that the people in this village are going to make sacrifices to some god to pray for rain.

Zheng Tianyou's heart pounded, and he subconsciously stopped in front of the team and shouted: "Which village are you from?

Don’t you know the royal law of the court and you are not allowed to offer sacrifices to evil gods? What do you want to do?”

His tone was stern and his demeanor made people know that he was from the government at first sight. He immediately calmed down the group of villagers.

At that moment, a wrinkled old man stood up and said with a wry smile: "Sir! We are praying for rain...

It has not rained in the village for several months. If it does not rain, no crops will grow. The people in our village will die of thirst!"
Chapter completed!
