Chapter 889 The Bodhisattva Appears

Whenever Lin Ruan arrives in a city and town, he will be welcomed by the people. Lin Ruan is definitely not a quick inspection. Every time he goes, he will go around the people in person, take a look at their needs on the spot, and then make timely adjustments to materials and plans based on actual conditions.

Because Lin Ruan's formation was centered on Wanning Mansion, including the other three prefectures, all the work went smoothly.

In the shortest time, the people dug out the buried people, sent the injured to the treatment department, and registered the dead, so that their families could claim it back and bury it.

All the uninjured people have been involved in the post-disaster resettlement work, building temporary shantytowns, cleaning up collapsed houses everywhere, picking up and dropping off wounded people, and cleaning up buried roads...

All matters are proceeding in an orderly manner.

One month later, when the aftershocks were confirmed to be completely over, the first batch of reconstruction began.

Ancient wooden structure houses have one advantage, that is, they are more earthquake-resistant. Many houses have no problems, but the tiles on the roof are seriously damaged.

In this case, you only need to re-reinforce the house and then cover it with thatched roof to temporarily live in people.

After all, with such a large area of ​​collapse, the brick kiln and tile factory would not have time to produce such a large number in a while. Using thatched huts can quickly relocate the people, and the other hand, the thatched huts can be light. Even if there are aftershocks behind them, there is no need to worry about collapse of the roof.

The people also found that these thatchs this year grew very fast and lush. It was only March, but the thatchs had grown taller, and it seemed like oil was poured on, and it could rise up a lot overnight.

What surprised them even more was that the crops in the fields were particularly lush. The wheat ears were a few days earlier than in previous years, and the wheat ears were larger and fuller than in previous years.

The people were amazed, saying that God blessed them in the Great Zhou Dynasty and could not bear to see the people in the Great Zhou Dynasty suffer, so these plants and trees grew so well.

Lin Ruan, who had hidden merits and fame, smiled faintly.

Yes, all of this is really God’s preference and blessing.

Three months later, the post-disaster work was completely over.

According to statistics on all casualties, the total population of the four continental prefectures, including Wanning Prefecture, was more than 70 million, with more than 1,000 deaths on the day of the earthquake. During the subsequent treatment, the number of serious injuries and deaths was only more than 200.

This number surprised all the people.

Such a strong earthquake, and it happened in the middle of the night, was incredible.

It was not until this time that people remembered something, the warning they received on the night of the earthquake, the birds that threw stones from the sky, and the sound of reminding them that the earth dragons turned over.

Some people were talking about this before, but at that time everyone was busy rebuilding their homes and did not achieve much.

But now that things are over, and after everyone recovers from the gods, they feel a little incredible. So there is a rumor among the people that the Bodhisattva showed his spirit and sent the fairy under him to come down to earth to remind everyone.

Those who believed in the fairy's words survived well. Those who refused to listen to advice were all lying underground.

Lin Ruan sent someone to send a message at the right time, that is, why the imperial court built a granary reservoir and dam before, because Master Jiyuan said that the Bodhisattva told him in his dream that disasters in the Great Zhou Dynasty would come to the world and that preparations must be made early.

This information completely confirmed the rumors that the Bodhisattva appeared.

Subsequently, a large number of people flocked to nearby temples to burn incense and add incense and oil to the Bodhisattvas in the temple, and exhausted all the monks in the temple. The incense reached its peak in all temples in Wanning Mansion.

After everything was handled properly, Lin Ruan quietly left Wanning Mansion and returned to Kyoto with people.

When he returned to Kyoto, Lin Ruan entered the palace as soon as possible.

The emperor was very happy to see her return, "Aruan made great contributions this time. How should I reward you?"

Lin Ruan smiled and said, "It is the duty of a son minister to be able to do something for the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty and to share the worries of the father and emperor. How dare you reward him?"

"Reward, you must reward. This time you are in charge of Wanning Mansion, which has saved me a lot of worry."

The emperor was in a very good mood during this period. If the Wanning Mansion earthquake had not been prepared in advance, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Lin Ruan smiled faintly and said, "Father, the main reason why the Wanning Mansion's earthquake was solved so quickly is not the sons."

The emperor raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then tell me, who do you have to do with me?"

"I heard a rumor when I was among the people."

"What you are talking about is the Bodhisattva's appearance, and I send the fairy to report this to the people?"

Lin Ruan nodded, "This earthquake happened late at night. If it weren't for the people who received the news in advance, I'm afraid that the preparations we made before would not be enough to resist."

The emperor hesitated a little, "A Ruan also thinks that this is the manifestation of the Bodhisattva?"

"I have asked someone to inquire. Almost the entire Wanning Mansion has received a reminder that I can do this in such a short time and know so accurately when the earthquake will happen. Apart from the Bodhisattva's appearance, I can't think of other possibilities."

"What's more, before Erchen learned about the secrets of heaven from Master Jiyuan, he was able to prepare in advance, so Erchen also believed that it was a clear spirit of God."

The emperor was a relatively superstitious person, especially he was very convinced of Master Jiyuan's ability, so after thinking about it carefully, he really felt that there was no other possibility of this matter besides the appearance of the Bodhisattva.

So the emperor made a decision to reshape the golden body for the Bodhisattva in Daxiangguo Temple.

As for Lin Ruan, the emperor naturally had a lot of rewards from her. For the sake of the court, Lin Ruan had been busy outside for more than half a year.

However, Lin Ruan made a request at this time, "Father, I want to go to the northern border."

She hasn't seen Xiao Jingchen for a long time, and she is really worried about it.

Most of the people who were outside to rescue disasters were so busy that she didn't even have time to reply to him.

Moreover, in the next few months, Xiao Jingchen wrote to her, he reported good news but not bad news. Most of the time, he felt sorry for her and was running around outside and did not want to distract her.

The emperor laughed, "As long as you are not afraid of running around, then go. You and your wife haven't seen each other for so long, and I feel a little sad."

Lin Ruan smiled and thanked her. Before leaving the palace, Lin Ruan reminded the emperor again, "Father, although the earth move has been resolved, I still don't care. Master Jiyuan spoke very seriously that day, so I was worried that there would be other troubles."

The emperor nodded, "I know that the food you found before is enough for the people of Dazhou to eat and drink for a year. Last month, news of a bumper harvest came from all over the country, so I don't have to worry about the issue of food. As for other natural disasters, I have asked officials from all over the country to strengthen prevention and deal with problems in a timely manner when they find them. The problem should not be too big."
