Chapter 134 Sacrifice yourself(1/3)
"drive!"
"drive!"
In the heavy rain, a man rode a horse on the post road, coming all the way from the west.
When people on the roadside saw the command flag stuck behind this man, they immediately got out of the way, and this man galloped all the way into Lucheng.
Soon, this man met Wen Ji, the king of Lucheng County, at the Governor's Mansion.
"Meet the Governor!"
Those who are called Commander Wen Ji are usually soldiers under his command, and they have even seen him before, but this man is a postman and should have fought with Wen Ji in the past.
The postman held up a letter with both hands, and it was sealed with a wax seal. Wen Ji checked the wax seal, opened the letter, and started reading immediately.
In an instant, Wen Ji's expression changed, but he sighed as if he had expected it.
"well!"
The staff on the side asked: "Prince, what's wrong?"
Wen Ji handed the letter to his staff: "Look at it!"
The letter was written about the disaster in Jinzhou. One and a half of Jinshan County, a county to which Ximen County belongs, was flooded. A large amount of farmland was destroyed, houses collapsed, and countless people became homeless and displaced.
Fortunately, the main levees have not completely collapsed.
Wen Ji asked the postman: "Are the other embankments still safe?"
The postman hesitated: "I..."
Wen Ji immediately became anxious when he saw this: "Say it quickly."
Postman: "I don't know for sure. I just heard when we set off that the Huajiang Embankment was almost unsteady."
Wen Ji suddenly became anxious: "What?"
It stands to reason that Wen Ji was just the governor of Yinzhou, supervising the military affairs of the two states, and Jinzhou had nothing to do with Wen Ji except for military matters.
But in fact, Jinzhou was also Wen Ji's base. He was not only in charge of military affairs, the governor of Jinzhou was Wen Ji's Yue Weng.
It has worked hard for more than ten years, and its geographical location is dangerous. Now that something happened, how could Wenji not be in a hurry.
Wen Ji: "Do we need to come up with a charter?"
Affiliates: "Immediately send important people to Ximen County and Jinshan County to provide disaster relief, gather the victims and monitor the disaster situation."
Wen Ji: "Let Dalang go."
Staff member: "In this case, no one will dare to cheat."
Wen Ji: "It's just about what to do with the Huajiang embankment. If it breaks out, it won't be a matter for one or two counties."
Now there is nothing anyone can do. They are beyond their reach. What can they do?
When the postman set off, he said that the embankment was already showing signs of instability, and that it would take many days to travel all the way.
It's hard to say, the embankment has already been broken by this time.
At this time, the subordinates said: "Prince, the only way we can do now is to ask the witches to see if there is any solution."
Wen Ji was furious: "A few months ago, we had already warned that the embankments were in disrepair and that floods were imminent, but now the officials in Jinzhou are still aware of it and are not prepared. Now the disaster is coming."
But it doesn't make much sense to say this at this time, Wen Ji can only say.
Wen Ji: "The sorcerer is now in the Xihe Shrine. The heavy rain has not stopped for days, so Jiang is not having a good time."
Staff member: "Taoist Taoist Zhu Zhu of Luyang Temple has secret skills, which can be reported to the shaman."
Wen Ji: "Ask Taoist Master Ao to come quickly."
Staff: "I've already sent someone to invite you."
——
It's raining heavily.
On the sacred peak, groups of people came from outside the temple.
A few people could stand inside the temple and respectfully worship the tablet of Yun Zhongjun, but most people could only stand outside under the eaves or even under the heavy rain. There were even many people in the pavilion at the foot of the mountain.
There are magistrates and officials from Xihe and Jingu counties, eunuchs, Taoist priests, and Tiangong officials.
Everyone heard some news, so they all ran to the temple.
One is to meet the witch, and the other is to know different situations from each other. The heavy rain has cut off news from the outside world, and everyone hopes to know what is happening now.
Raindrops were pattering under the eaves, and people outside were whispering.
"Why are so many things suddenly floating down the river? Something big must have happened upstream."
"I heard that the King of Lucheng County sent people here, saying that Jinzhou was flooded."
"What, the whole Jinzhou was flooded, how many people would die?"
"Ghosts and gods with golden light appeared on the riverside. Many people saw several dragons going up the river. I don't know where they went."
"This is a huge disaster!"
"Do you still remember the edict of Uncle Luyang?"
"Dragon disasters must be dragon disasters. It is the changes in heaven and earth that cause disasters caused by dragons."
"Fortunately, I, Yinzhou, built the Dragon Embankment, otherwise I would have been the first to bear the brunt."
All kinds of news come together, and everything proves that something big has happened.
People are panicked, and everyone becomes uneasy.
Only the dragon embankment and the "boundless magical power" of the witch who sits in the temple can bring some comfort to everyone.
When the embankment was being built, many people still had doubts about whether this was a big deal, after all, nothing had happened in the previous years.
Now, everyone is only happy.
The officials in the county, the Taoist priests in the mountains, and the eunuchs from the capital all looked into the depths of the shrine.
Deep inside the temple.
Of course, the Divine Witch also knew what happened in Jinzhou, but compared with the terrible rumors that everyone said that the entire Jinzhou was flooded, the Divine Witch knew that there were currently two or three counties that were flooded.
However, the Huajiang embankment is on the verge of collapse and may burst at any time.
In addition, the Tiangong clan also reported what they had seen and heard by the river.
"The golden god, riding a dragon and crossing the river?"
The witch thought, that must be Yun Zhongjun.
"Perhaps Yun Zhongjun had sensed something in advance, so he rode a dragon to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River."
Although Yun Zhongjun had already expected it, the magic witch got some news after all, and she was still ready to report it to Yun Zhongjun.
At the same time, she also wanted to know something about the situation from Yun Zhongjun.
At this point, people outside were panicking and making various speculations, which inevitably affected the witch and made her worry that something more shocking would happen.
Within the fairy palace on earth.
The shaman crossed the stone screen and climbed to the high platform. He sat cross-legged on a high place, put on his divine mask, and held the talisman.
"Lingzi invites Lord Yun Zhong!"
"I pray today that I have something important to report to Mr. Yun Zhong."
As soon as the scene changed, she came to another place.
Opening his eyes, the wizard found that he was already on the river. It was also raining here, but it seemed to be heavier.
Of course, it may also be because this place is located on a river, and the feeling of wind and rain brought by the rain becomes more and more intense.
Under his feet was Ba Xia's gray-white turtle shell. As the wizard looked forward, he saw a cloud-robed god with an aura behind his head standing on top of a dragon's head.
"Crack!"
A huge wave hit Baxia's turtle shell, causing his feet to sway.
The wizard walked to the edge of the turtle shell, looked at Yun Zhongjun from a distance and shouted.
"Shenjun, Lingzi has come to pay his respects."
Yun Zhongjun seems to have something on his mind today. He doesn't seem very eager, but rather a little cold.
Yun Zhongjun did not turn around: "What are you doing?"
The wizard immediately told everything he knew, and Yun Zhongjun just nodded.
The news about the witch was brought to her by Ao Taoist through the Earth God "Luyang Tubo". How could "Yun Zhongjun", the creator of all this, not know about it? Wang Shu told her immediately after getting the news
After catching him, he "rided the dragon" and headed towards the location of the painted river embankment.
Huajiang is a tributary of the Yangtze River that merges into the Yangtze River and is also an important shipping route.
Wizard: "Not only Ximen, but part of Jinshan Mountain has been flooded. I heard that Huajiang embankment is about to burst, but it has not been confirmed yet."
