Chapter 190 Gu Jinnian, the marquis of the big summer, came to ask for the rain talisman!

Chapter 190 Gu Jinnian, the Marquis of Great Summer, came to borrow a rain talisman! [Asking for monthly tickets in the middle of the month]

Thirteen years of Yongsheng.

July 4th.

For three days in a row, the nineteen prefectures in Jiangzhong County began to have a bumper harvest.

The first batch of Daxialong rice planted has also been officially rewarded.

In the city of Jiangzhong County.

Zhou Man held a roster and his voice was as loud as a bell.

"Huaiping County, wheat harvest is 38,500 shi."

"In Yongxiu County, the wheat harvest is 49,200 shi."

"Chunyun County, wheat harvest is 39,850 shi."

As the sounds sounded one after another, the people gathered around were already happy.

Although this is food from other prefectures and counties, no matter what, it means that the food crisis in Jiangzhong County has been completely resolved.

Everyone thought that it would take at least three months to harvest wheat, but they did not expect that a bumper harvest would be achieved in just one month.

How not to make them happy?

Finally, after describing the harvest situation in various places, Zhou Man turned to the last page and spoke slowly.

"This autumn harvest in Jiangzhong County has harvested a total of 30 million and 48.65 million, and 3,255 shi of grain."

"The total grain output in the county last year was thirty to twenty-four million shi of grain."

Zhou Man opened his mouth and made a total comparison of last year's grain income and one month's income this year.

At first, everyone didn't feel much about it, but now that they hear it, don't they feel it coming?

"The grain harvest every month is higher than that of the year. This is because we have not planted all the crops. If we planted them all, wouldn't we in Jiangzhong County be able to grow more than 100,000 dan of grain in a month?"

"That's not the case. Didn't the Marquis say that from now on everyone in the Great Xia Dynasty will eat the food we grow?"

"Everyone eats it? Then the price of this grain must not be sold cheaply in the future? How can it be sold for fifty taels of silver and one stone?"

People were talking a lot, most of them were happy, but there were also a small number of people who were pursuing interests and making things more valuable when they were scarce. Ordinary people know this.

So when I heard that the number would be exaggerated in the future, I was naturally a little disappointed.

"You are really interesting. Such a big thing has happened to our Jiangzhong County. The whole country, all counties and governments have come to help us. We have grown so much food, so what can we do if we sell it to everyone at a low price?"

"Yes, now the output has doubled and the profits have been made a lot. Is it possible that we must make a lot of money?"

Most of the people are still very conscientious. In fact, as Gu Jinnian said before, this grain can be sold for fifty taels of silver and one stone. At first, everyone was very happy, but later the people also understood.

In fact, grain is not sold at a sky-high price. Now the yield per mu has doubled, plus it can be harvested several times a year. As long as the price is a little higher than normal grain and rice.

With ten taels of silver and one stone, everyone has already made a lot of money, why do they need to make so much?

In addition, with the aid from various places, the people of Jiangzhong County see that they are all one family, so why should they be like this?

Indeed, as soon as these words were said, the direction of the wind changed instantly, and these profit-seeking people did not dare to say anything for fear of being punished by everyone.

"Dear fellow villagers and elders."

"Don't rush."

"I would like to say a few words to you."

After listening to everyone's discussion, Zhou Man immediately spoke up, fearing that everyone would indeed misunderstand.

"Dear fellow villagers and elders."

"The Marquis has said that he will make our Jiangzhong County the most prosperous county in the Great Xia Dynasty."

"The price of this Daxialong rice will indeed come down in the future, but at least we will be the first to get rich. Of course, we must not forget the donations from the counties."

"What the Marquis means is that we are serious about farming. In the first two years, the court will collect the rice we have on hand at an average price and help us build a Jiangzhong Longmi brand."

"When dragon rice is planted in various places in the future, the price of our river dragon rice will definitely not drop, and it will be famous all over the world. At that time, this rice will be sold to other dynasties."

"The Marquis said that at that time it was not as simple as selling fifty taels, but at least one hundred taels and one stone."

"The first choice is our Jiangzhong Longmi, and we only sell this poor quality. You can eat the good rice grown by everyone."

Zhou Man's speaking out can be regarded as pointing out a clear path for everyone, and also giving some hope.

As soon as they heard this, the common people clapped their hands and applauded. They sold it to their own people. The price was high, but I still felt uncomfortable in my heart. They all belonged to the common people. Who didn't know who was who?

It can be sold to people from other dynasties, and you can control whether they live or die. You can eat it if you like it, and you will be killed if you don't. There is no shortage of people to buy it.

So when this idea was mentioned, the people of Jiangzhong County really laughed.

"That's good, sell it to the Huns for two hundred taels and one stone."

"It is said that the rice from the Dajin Dynasty is good. Folks, let's grow grain seriously in the future and study it carefully. Then we will compare it with the rice from the Dajin Dynasty to see whose rice is the best."

"Yes, if you compare it with the Great Jin Dynasty, I don't believe it. The rice grown by our Great Xia Dynasty can't compare with them?"

The people smiled and spoke, full of longing for the future.

"Folks, the Marquis is very happy that you have such an idea."

"However, I have a few things to tell the folks."

"First, you guys will keep the grain harvested this time for three months, and sell the rest to the government. Part of it will be stored by the government, and part of it will be distributed to some poor families who have no land."

"As for the price, it's five taels of silver per stone. Let's get through this first difficulty first. This is what the Marquis meant, and everyone should understand it."

"And this harvest, no taxes will be paid, and the villagers will get as much as they want."

"The second thing is that the Marquis hopes that everyone can continue to work hard. Four months later, it will be time to collect grain taxes in the second half of the year. The grain will still be collected directly by the government, but taxes will have to be paid at this time. New Deal Notice

It has been posted inside the city gate, you can see it yourself."

"What the Marquis means is that in eight months, after we have collected two batches of grain, we can go to Beijing. Firstly, it will open up our golden sign of Jiangzhong Longmi, and secondly, it will give our Jiangzhong County a good fight.

Shameless."

"It will be a blockbuster, it will shock all the civil and military officials in the court, and it will also shock everyone in the world. This is what the Marquis means."

"So, you all have to hold your breath. Let's hold our breath. After eight months, let alone Daxia, which of the Eastern Wilderness countries will not be shocked by our Jiangzhong County?"

"The third thing is that the Marquis has allocated a piece of land. This land is harvested once a month. The rice harvested is suitable for children, the elderly, and pregnant women. In other places, it takes less than four months.

, harvesting in advance is never allowed.”

"This is an iron rule. Fellow villagers, you must not cut wheat in advance just because of a sudden rush. Do you understand this?"

Zhou Man declared these three things.

This is all Gu Jinnian's arrangement.

Not collecting taxes for the first time completely gave the people of Jiangzhong County a sense of security. Most of them had surplus food, so they were not afraid of what would happen next.

But we also have to take care of some poor people.

The common people understand this very well. After all, they have suffered hardships and are very sympathetic.

And this second thing is what concerns the people of Jiangzhong County.

The new tax payment policy has been passed on by all the clan elders. Now everyone understands it and knows that this is a good thing. There is nothing wrong with paying taxes according to the land. If you pay more land, you can pay less land. It is extremely friendly to many people.

Everyone is supportive and I don’t feel uncomfortable at all.

Now with Zhou Man saying this, everyone is really looking forward to it.

Think about it, if we wait eight months, how much food will Jiangzhong County have?

If this tax were paid, the whole country would be in an uproar.

Whoever sees them in the future, the people of Jiangzhong County will not shout a loud shout of might?

As long as the tax is not heavy, the people will be happy. After all, it is also a strong national power. It would be even better if you can still show off after paying the grain tax.

Thinking of this, the common people couldn't help but giggle. They really wanted to see the expressions of the civil and military officials in the court when they heard that Jiangzhong County paid tens of millions of shi of grain in one go.

It must be particularly rich.

As for the last thing, the people are even more uncontested. Harvesting every four months is already very good. In the past, it was done once every five months, with half a month of farming and half a month of replanting.

Now it is done every four months, which is quite good. Everyone knows that only after four months of maturity can the dragon rice prolong life. The most important thing is that the mature rice can aphrodisiac.

This is the core of the core.

Therefore, the people were very happy with these three requests and agreed directly.

"These are all small things. We are good at farming."

"Yeah, small things, small things."

"Let me see, not to mention eight months later, Mr. Zhou, please write down all the counties that have donated food to us in Jiangzhong County. After eight months, each of us will take out part of it and return it to these counties.

.”

"Double the amount, otherwise others would really think that we in Jiangzhong County are very poor."

Someone smiled and suggested that after eight months, each person would take part of the grain and return it to these brother counties.

When one becomes prosperous, he never forgets his poor brothers.

As soon as this proposal was made, it was unanimously approved. Most people are very simple. When they eat a lot, they will think about others. There are not so many evil thoughts. It is really good to be good to everyone.

"This is good."

"I will make a note of it when I get back. Then we will recruit some people and send them to each government. This drop of kindness should be repaid by a spring, don't you think?"

When Zhou Man heard this, he immediately felt very good. He wanted to show off his kindness. The most important thing was to repay the kindness and let the people of Daxia know that all of them in the river had backbone and remembered the kindness.

Whoever helped us, we will help him back.

However, at this moment, someone suddenly spoke.

"Master Zhou, why doesn't Mr. Hou come?"

As one person spoke, many voices suddenly sounded, asking why Gu Jinnian didn't come?

After hearing this, Zhou Man smiled bitterly.

"The Marquis left early in the morning."

Zhou Man spoke up and explained.

But as soon as he said this, the people became quiet instantly.

But soon, some voices sounded.

"Master Hou is gone?"

"Why did the Marquis leave suddenly without saying goodbye?"

"Yes, Mr. Zhou, why don't you give me some advice? We, the people in Jiangzhong, haven't properly thanked the Marquis, so why did we let the Marquis go?"

"Oh, you are so confused, Mr. Zhou, how could you let the Marquis leave? We didn't even thank the Marquis properly, so why did we just leave?"

The voices sounded one after another, and many people felt a little uncomfortable. Gu Jinnian is now simply a god-like existence in the hearts of the people in the river. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a contemporary saint.

After learning that Gu Jinnian left without saying goodbye, everyone was still in a very low mood.

After all, they really wanted to thank Gu Jinnian properly.

Look at the disappointment in the eyes of the people.

Zhou Man's voice couldn't help but sound.

"Fellow folks."

"The Marquis is not an ordinary person. He is different from other officials. He has a heart for the people."

"The problem in Jiangzhong County has been solved by the Marquis, but there are still more things that need to be solved by the Marquis. He did not leave without saying goodbye, but left the Daxia Longsui behind."

"The fire in Donglin County killed and injured countless people. The Marquis is needed in many places throughout Daxia."

"I just heard someone say that I haven't had time to thank the Marquis properly yet."

"I have a few words from the bottom of my heart. You may think that I am hypocritical."

"But these words are indeed what I mean. If we, the people in the river, can farm well, we can feed all the people of the entire Daxia Dynasty and solve the fundamental problems of the Daxia Dynasty."

"This is the greatest reward and the greatest gratitude I can give to Mr. Hou."

"Everyone!"

Zhou Man really spoke these words from the bottom of his heart.

He was completely impressed by Gu Jinnian's spirit. In fact, there were so many disasters in the summer, and it was not something that one person could solve.

Gu Jinnian solved the problem in Jiangzhong County. It stands to reason that any official would choose to stay here. Who wouldn't want to monopolize this huge contribution?

It doesn’t matter whether others will come to rob it, as long as you leave, anything is possible.

However, Gu Jinnian didn't hesitate at all, he left very simply, even he was a belated thinker.

He doesn't care about any reputation, as long as the people live well, nothing will be a problem.

The difficulties in Jiangzhong County.

There is no excitement or imaginary conflicts.

Everything Gu Jinnian does revolves around the fundamentals.

He appeared when Jiangzhong County was in the most turmoil, and stood up when countless people were unhappy about it. Now he has stabilized the situation without any fanfare or exaggeration.

Just leave as soon as you say it, truly showing the saintly demeanor.

Thinking of this, Zhou Man took a deep breath, looked at all the people, clenched his fists and said.

“Plow the land well!”

"Eight months later, we will give Daxia a miracle and give the Marquis a miracle. This time, we will not only strive for ourselves, but also for the Marquis."

"Let everyone in the world know that without Mr. Hou, the difficulties in the river cannot be resolved. We must also let Mr. Hou know that we did not let him down."

Zhou Man spoke out. He gave the strongest emotion and said these words.

These remarks are not sensational or emotional, but an attitude.

Suddenly, all the people present clenched their fists.

yes.

Eight months later.

Give the Great Xia Dynasty a miracle.

Give Mr. Hou a miracle.

Let the people of the world see these thousands of people.

No one would have imagined what kind of surprise Gu Jinnian's departure without saying goodbye would bring to the Great Xia Dynasty. No one could predict what the outcome would be, but what they do know is that the will of the people can move mountains.

At this time, in Sishui County.

In front of a flat tomb.

Several figures appeared here.

It was Gu Jinnian, Li Ji, and Fang Jingcheng.

This is in front of Wang Wei's grave.

Gu Jinnian burned three sticks of incense himself. He said nothing because no matter what he said, he could not express his guilt towards Wang Weizhi.

In any case, this matter was done by Gu Ningya, his sixth uncle, and if it weren't for him, Wang Wei would not have died. Gu Jinnian kept this in mind.

"Brother Wang."

"If I become a saint, I will personally write a merit monument for you so that future generations will know about it. Jiangzhong County has completely decided that Gu will let the officials build a body of merit for you."

Gu Jinnian spoke out. He could not repay Wang Wei, so he could only use this method, so that Wang Wei's sacrifice was not in vain.

"Brother Wang, the people of Jiangzhong County will no longer worry about not having enough to eat."

"Your wish has been fulfilled. I will come here to visit you every year in the future to prevent you from being lonely. The Marquis has asked people to take good care of your whole family. Your descendants will be my descendants from now on.

He is more sensible and I will take him over and teach him well."

Fang Jingcheng also spoke. After saying this, he picked up a bowl of wine and sprinkled it on the ground.

Li Ji, on the other hand, watched all this quietly and remained silent.

After half an hour, Gu Jinnian led the two of them away from the place.

He is going to Donglin County.

King Qin has issued nine military reports in succession in the past few days, highlighting the urgency of Donglin County.

If Jiangzhong County's funeral arrangements hadn't been completely arranged, Gu Jinnian would have already left.

Among the jade chariots, Gu Jinnian did not bring many people this time, but only two hundred guards.

The smaller the number of people, the faster the speed. Two hundred light cavalry galloped all the way to Donglin County.

Jiangzhong County is about 3,400 miles away from Donglin County. If we travel day and night, at this speed, we can arrive there the next day.

And inside the jade chariot.

Fang Jingcheng was also carefully watching some military aircraft intelligence, which Gu Jinnian gave him.

It's best to help yourself analyze the situation, otherwise relying on one person's wisdom will inevitably lead to many omissions.

Wang Wei's lesson, Gu Jinnian only needs to eat it once, and he definitely doesn't want to eat it a second time.

Until late at night.

After reading all the military aircraft intelligence during this period, Fang Jingcheng let out a long sigh.

"Master Hou."

"The Great Summer Disaster is far more troublesome than imagined."

Fang Jingcheng spoke with a very solemn expression.

"Jiangzhong County has been secured by Uncle Jinnian, what else will happen?"

"My father in Longxi County has stabilized and is handling post-disaster matters in an orderly manner. Although the Donglin County mountain fire has not been extinguished yet, but ten thousand steps back, even if the Donglin County fire spreads."

"It's nothing more than the loss of some mountains and trees, which won't affect the imperial court. As for Nanyue County, at least some people were successfully evacuated. Why do you feel like the trouble is bigger?"

Li Ji spoke out, but he didn't mean anything else. Gu Jinnian worked hard to stabilize Jiangzhong County. It stands to reason that half of the Great Summer Disaster has been calmed down.

But this Fang Jingcheng is still here to sing the opposite tune. How can this be accepted?

"Your Highness Taisun, it's not that I mean to play devil's advocate, it's just that things like this are not as simple as they seem on the surface."

Fang Jingcheng said gently.

"Sir, please tell me what you have to say."

Gu Jinnian looked at Fang Jingcheng and asked him to answer.

"Master Hou."

"Longxi County, Donglin County, Nanyue County, and Jiangzhong County were all affected by disasters. They seemed unrelated, but now it seems that they are related."

"Let's talk about Longxi County first. The earthquake in Longxi County and the collapse of houses are not a big deal. The real trouble is that the main road is blocked. Longxi County has an official road that directly connects Donglin County and Nanyue County, including Jiangzhong County."

"Once something goes wrong in Longxi County, it is difficult to guarantee logistics. Even if donations are raised nationwide and food supplies are transported, the first batch will have to be given to the people of Longxi County, and very little will be distributed to people in other places."

"The most affected area is Jiangzhong County. Fortunately, His Majesty's use of dragon boats and treasure ships can be regarded as solving the urgent need."

"But Fang believes that the reason for the earthquake in Longxi County is that someone wanted to force the Great Xia Dynasty to use the spiritual crystal. Once this thing is used, it will be gone."

"Of course, this is just my guess. After all, whether it was a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, I dare not make any wild guesses."

Fang Jingcheng spoke up and explained clearly the influence of Longxi County.

"Sir, continue."

Gu Jinnian nodded. He had thought of this before, but now that Fang Jingcheng brought it up, it was in line with his own thoughts.

"The fire in Donglin County seems to affect the people of Donglin County, but in fact it affects Nanyue County and Jiangzhong County."

"The fires are burning, the trees are turning to ashes, and the dust is floating in the sky. If there is a strong southeast wind, if nothing unexpected happens, it will all blow to Nanyue County and Jiangzhong County."

"The trees in Donglin County are often trees that are hundreds of years old. The ash that these trees turn into gathers heat. If they are all scattered in Nanyue County, Grandson and Marquis, you should know what the consequences will be, right?"

Fang Jingcheng said no more.

The two of them understood what it meant almost instantly.

If this dust gathers heat and falls on Nanyue County, it will be a disaster. Nanyue County will suddenly be frozen for thousands of miles.

It seems to be the smallest impact, but in fact it is the largest impact. Once the glaciers melt and floods occur, it will be a big deal.

Fire, at least it burns and goes away.

The floods were horrific, destroying crops, flooding people, and causing great trouble.

"What if we put out this fire?"

Li Ji frowned and asked.

"It would be much better to put out the fire, but if this natural disaster is really caused by man, there are hundreds of volcanoes in Nanyue County."

"If the volcano erupts, it will still cause floods."

"It's just that the possibility is not very high. After all, it is not something that ordinary people can do to make this volcano erupt."

"But if floods really occur in Nanyue County, Jiangzhong County will definitely be affected."

Fang Jingcheng said seriously.

This time Li Ji really couldn't understand.

"If there is a flood in Nanyue County, it seems that the water will not flow to Jiangzhong County, right?"

"Mr. Fang, can't you force the issue?"

Li Ji still had some brains and pointed out the problem directly.

But this time, before Fang Jingcheng could answer, Gu Jinnian's voice sounded.

"Lee Ji."

"If there is a flood in Nanyue County that affects the water of the two rivers, the flood will be released all the way. Even if the disaster is finally stabilized, the water of the two rivers will be affected, and the water flow will inevitably be scarce in the coming year."

"70% of the rice fields south of Jiangzhong County rely on water from these two rivers. Don't you still understand?"

Gu Jinnian spoke up and said calmly.

"this"

Li Ji fell silent.

Disasters suddenly occurred in the four major counties. Everyone subconsciously felt that the disasters were unrelated to each other. Now, at a glance, it can be said to be a chain of control.

The purpose of all this is to prevent Jiangzhong County from producing food due to earthquakes, fires, and floods.

It doesn't matter if you make one mistake or not.

"But the good thing is that the Marquis has stabilized the situation in Jiangzhong County. With the crown prince here, Longxi County is indeed much more stable. Right now it is Donglin County and Nanyue County."

"If it is handled properly, it will be regarded as a complete merit. If it is handled improperly, it will not be able to shake the foundation of Daxia. This is fortunate."

Fang Jingcheng spoke up and pointed out the problems of the four major counties. Everything revolves around Jiangzhong County.

Fortunately, Gu Jinnian used a method unknown to anyone to stabilize the disaster situation in Jiangzhong County, and the other party's wishful thinking was completely in vain.

To hold on until death would just be to give Daxia a slight blow.

However, facing Fang Jingcheng's great luck, Gu Jinnian shook his head.

"Mr. Fang, I completely agree with what you just said, but there are just some things that you overlooked."

"The earthquake in Longxi County, regardless of whether it affected Jiangzhong County or not, the houses in Longxi County collapsed and the people had no shelter. If they want to rebuild, it will take a nationwide effort, and it will take at least three years to help the people in Longxi County rebuild their homes."

"The fire in Donglin County is even more terrifying. The people of Donglin County have to rely on the mountains themselves, and all the trees are destroyed. Even if the people survive, it will be extremely difficult to survive in the future, and they will still need the support of the Great Xia Dynasty."

"Furthermore, in King Qin's letter, the figure of Buddhism has appeared again. The appearance of Buddhism means that there are resentful souls in Donglin County. If this problem is not solved, any place burned by fire will become a place where lonely souls and wild ghosts gather, and the Yin Qi

It was extremely heavy and was completely reduced to a place of ruins.”

"The flood occurred in Nanyue County, and the people of Liangjiang River suffered terribly, but the most terrible thing is the subsequent impact. The fertile farmland was destroyed. Even if the people start farming again, how will they solve the problem of lack of water in the coming year?"

"In other words, these four places were chosen extremely well and must have been carefully considered. They can be connected together in a line to target Jiangzhong County and defeated one by one. Each place can delay the Great Xia Dynasty for several years.

develop."

Having said this, Gu Jinnian's expression became more serious.

"This natural disaster, if nothing else goes wrong, should be aimed at the national destiny of Great Xia. If there is a problem anywhere, it will delay the pace of Great Xia. The battle for the national destiny has already begun."

"I, Daxia, don't say that I will definitely get the Dragon Ball of National Fortune, but at least I have a chance to fight for it."

"But now, there are people who want to hold me back, Daxia."

Gu Jinnian understood clearly and expressed his understanding.

"What the Marquis said is true."

Fang Jingcheng nodded, but he just nodded because he had no way to solve it.

To solve these problems, we can no longer rely on wisdom to solve them.

"Uncle Jinnian, what should we do?"

This time Li Ji was really a little panicked. He said that he would be the emperor of Daxia in the future. If he couldn't handle this, it would naturally affect him.

"They come, the security."

"The biggest trouble in Donglin County is still the fire. My relationship with the Xianmen is pretty good. If I go and borrow the rain talisman in person, there may be some improvement."

"Furthermore, since Buddhism can take action, it proves that Buddhism has a way to solve it. Now that Buddhism has a Dou Qi luck on me, Buddhism has a way to solve it, why don't I?"

"What really gives me a headache is Nanyue County."

Regarding Donglin County, Gu Jinnian really didn't have any solution.

The biggest problem in Donglin County at present is the Rain Prayer Talisman. Gu Jinnian also understands the reason why the Immortal Sect does not help, isn't it because he wants to watch the fire from the other side and see the right time to take action?

If the Great Xia Dynasty survives many difficulties, the Immortal Sect will definitely take action, and they do not want to enmity with the Great Xia Dynasty.

But if the Great Xia Dynasty really fails, the Immortal Sect will not hesitate to support another group of people. Are they hiding in the Immortal Sect, are they really isolated from the world?

Everything is based on profit.

"Indeed, if the Marquis says so, Donglin County is indeed not a big problem."

"This Nanyue County is indeed the biggest hidden danger."

"If Nanyue County can be solved, this natural disaster will be completely ended. The Marquis's merits are immeasurable."

"The Great Xia Dynasty will inevitably receive blessings from heaven and earth due to this."

Fang Jingcheng nodded seriously.

"Let's not talk about it for now. Counting the time, we will arrive in Donglin County in about a few hours."

"Let's wait until we get to Donglin County."

"Ji'er, when I see your second uncle later, he asks for dessert. Your second uncle has been upset recently, so he won't take it out on you."

Gu Jinnian reminded Li Ji and then closed his eyes and rested.

But Li Ji was still a little scared when he heard the title "Second Uncle".

Three and a half hours passed like this.

Gu Jinnian's jade chariot has indeed arrived in Donglin County.

In fact, before arriving in Donglin County, several people had already felt it. Firstly, the temperature had obviously increased, and secondly, the sky was dark red.

The further we go towards Donglin County, the more blood-red the sky becomes.

By the time they entered Donglin County, there were not many people left in the city. They had all been moved five hundred miles away. Most of the people who remained were skilled craftsmen who needed their help to put out the fire.

When we entered the capital of Donglin County, the sky was blood red and deep and terrifying. When we looked up, we saw lots of ashes flying across the sky like bats, flying in all directions.

This dust is actually more terrifying.

If it disintegrates in the air, it will be submerged into the air. When people inhale this kind of air, their lungs will be filled with dirt, which can range from coughing to severe dizziness. They may even contract some lung diseases, which are lifelong.

Therefore, the faces of the people in the city will be covered with veils to block such dust. Problems will still occur if you stay here for a long time, so we can only use emergency measures.

Looking at such a scene, Gu Jinnian understood that it was useless to rely on soldiers to cut down the fire breaks. The fire was really extinguished. The dust problem could not be solved. There was still no one to live in within a radius of 1,500 miles.

All I can say is that it will not continue to get worse.

"Jin Nian."

"You're finally here."

Not long after Gu Jinnian entered the city, a voice sounded from outside.

It was Li Sui, King of Qin.

"Brother."

Hearing Li Sui's voice, Gu Jinnian immediately stood up from the jade chariot. He seemed very enthusiastic.

"No need to come out, just talk in the jade chariot."

The next moment, Li Sui jumped directly onto the jade chariot and pulled Gu Jinnian inside.

But after entering the jade chariot, the first thing that caught his eye was Fang Jingcheng and Li Ji. Li Sui didn't have a good look towards Li Ji, but towards Fang Jingcheng, Li Sui couldn't help but look at Gu Jinnian.

"This is my staff. Brother, if you have anything to say, please speak directly."

Gu Jinnian nodded to prevent Li Sui from overthinking.

"good."

"Jinnian, brother, I won't be verbose."

"You have to help me no matter what this time."

"I have extinguished two of the five fires, but I can't extinguish the remaining three. Now there is a mountain fire in the southeast, less than thirty miles apart. There is no strong wind yet, but even if there is no wind,

Three days at most.”

"Three days later, the two wildfires will inevitably collide. No matter how strong the fire is, it will really be impossible."

King Qin spoke out. He was really in a hurry and told the truth. He was not on guard against Fang Jingcheng.

I don't care if Li Ji is included.

"It's not a bad thing if two wildfires collide."

Gu Jinnian spoke up. It's not necessarily a bad thing if two mountain fires encounter each other. At least everything burned is gone.

"No."

King Qin shook his head and looked at Gu Jinnian with an ugly expression.

"This mountain fire was nothing at first, but it became more and more weird later on. Even a warrior in the human-dragon realm couldn't withstand the heat of the flames for a quarter of an hour."

"It's a resentful spirit! There are countless spirits in Donglin County, and the trees have spirits. These spirits and trees were burned to death by the fire, resulting in resentment and blessing in the mountain fire."

"If it were an ordinary mountain fire, it would be like this there, and there would be no need for you to come in Jinnian."

"When these two wildfires collide, it is very likely that more terrifying flames will emerge, and then we will really be in big trouble."

"If it really burns in Donglin County, then let it burn. At worst, we really don't need Donglin County. The terrible thing is that the fire will burn towards Nanyue County. Once it burns over, the ice and rocks will melt and turn into floods.

That would be an unreasonable disaster.”

King Qin spoke up and revealed the secret of the mountain fire in Donglin County.

“Can’t even the human-dragon realm resist it?”

Looking back on this Jinnian, I frown a little.

The heat of a mountain fire can reach a thousand degrees, but a strong person in the human-dragon realm should be able to withstand it under the protection of true energy.

If you can't resist it, the temperature of the flame will be terrifying.

"Can't stop it."

"Right now, I think that if we want to truly solve it, we must use a large number of rain-seeking talismans to first prevent the two groups of mountain fires from merging, and then destroy them one by one."

"I have calculated that one hundred rain-making charms are enough to extinguish the fire."

The King of Qin revealed his plan and what he needed.

"A hundred rain charms?"

"I'm afraid it will be difficult."

Gu Jinnian's brows furrowed even more.

"Don't say a hundred."

"I won't give you a single fairy gate."

"I have seen through this group of immortal monks, but it's good if you come. You have the root of the immortal spirit, and you are also a saint of Confucianism and Taoism. Unlike me, I am just an ordinary prince in Daxia. It's okay for them to look down on me.

normal."

"But you, they don't dare to neglect. Jinnian, I have a dragon boat here. You should hurry up and go to Xianmen to ask for some. At least suppress it now. Who knows whether there will be strong winds next."

King Qin looked a little anxious.

The reason he asked Gu Jinnian to come over was to use Gu Jinnian's special status to borrow a rain charm.

Nothing else.

"good."

"I'll go there later."

"But brother, what is the situation in Buddhism?"

Gu Jinnian nodded, asking for the rain talisman and he would naturally borrow it.

I just want to ask about Buddhism.

"A Buddhist monk came to me and said that this fire could be solved. He said that there are resentful souls in the mountain fire, and the effect of the rain charm will not be too great."

"Only the golden rain of Buddhist merit can completely resolve this fire."

"I don't know if what he said is true or false, but he probably won't lie to me."

King Qin spoke up and informed Gu Jinnian about the situation of Buddhism.

"Golden rain of merit?"

Gu Jinnian frowned, he really didn't know about this kind of thing.

"Did you agree?"

Gu Jinnian asked aloud.

"Definitely not."

"They want Buddhism to settle in Daxia. You have gone through so much trouble to refuse Buddhism to settle in Daxia. How can I agree?"

"I also know a thing or two about the nature of Buddhism. If you let them do things, you will definitely have to pay a higher price. Unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not agree."

"If you had come three days later, you would have been in trouble."

King Qin shook his head.

"kindness."

"What's going on now?"

Gu Jinnian continued to ask.

"The situation is very bad."

"Just putting out fires."

"More than 9,000 soldiers have died in the wildfires, and more than 10,000 brothers have been injured. The imperial dragon boats mainly went to Jiangzhong County and Nanyue County, and there are not many to help here."

"I spent a lot of money to buy some burn oil and medicinal materials. I can barely hold on. The rest can only depend on my fate."

When mentioning this, King Qin didn't look particularly good-looking.

Nearly 10,000 brothers died in wildfires.

There are more than 10,000 brothers with varying degrees of injuries. This is just now. If they are not handled well in the future, the trouble will be even greater.

"I see."

"Brother, don't worry, I'll go to the Immortal Sect."

Since he couldn't get any news, Gu Jinnian didn't want to sit still and wait for death.

He planned to go to Xianmen to borrow a rain talisman.

"good."

"Good brother, if the fire in Donglin County can be suppressed, I will definitely hold a banquet after returning to Beijing."

King Qin said with great joy.

However, Gu Jinnian did not answer.

He walked directly out of the jade chariot, used his magic power, and flew directly. In an instant, the Immortal King's jade chariot appeared above the sky, blooming with countless brilliance, and disappeared directly into the sky with Gu Jinnian.

The speed of the Immortal King's jade chariot is no worse than the dragon boat, or even faster than the dragon boat.

Looking at Gu Jinnian leaving, King Qin also let out a long breath.

But soon, King Qin looked away and looked at Li Ji and Fang Jingcheng in the jade chariot. Fang Jingcheng had nothing to say.

Li Ji has an explanation.

Feeling King Qin's gaze, Li Ji shrank his neck and then said with a sneer.

"Second uncle."

He bared his teeth and smiled.

However, King Qin grabbed Li Ji's neck.

"You kid, come here. We are short of manpower for the wounded in the logistics department. Go over and bandage them."

"If you want to get credit without working, don't dream."

After saying this, he directly carried Li Ji to the military camp and asked him to work and bandage the wounded.

And all this was seen by Fang Jingcheng.

Although it is tiring work.

But he could also see instantly that after all, they were still a family, so how could they really plot against each other?

However, now we just have to see if Gu Jinnian can borrow the rain charm.

in this way.

Five hours later.

Taixuan Immortal Sect.

Beyond Qingshan Falls.

Hongqiao is everywhere.

Cranes are flying.

Compared with the tragic situation in Donglin County, this place is like a fairyland on earth.

However, at this moment, a voice broke the peace of Taixuan Immortal Sect.

"In the great summer, Marquis Gu Jinnian came to borrow a rain talisman!"

As this voice sounded, countless eyes couldn't help but look outside for the first time.
