Chapter 0172 The River Has a Story Twenty days away
In July, the first flood peak occurred in the upper reaches of the Changjiang River. At 17 o'clock, the peak flow of Yicheng was 53,500 cubic meters per second.
Cui Ning also knew from TV that heavy rains began to fall in the southern region since June, and in recent days, the flow of the Changjiang River has increased rapidly due to heavy rains and heavy rains in Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake. Crisis warnings began to appear.
"This is the third warning signal in the Changjiang River basin since 1931 and 1954, and it is the rainy season now, so we must do a good job in flood prevention and disaster prevention in summer......" Listening to the comments of experts on the heavy rain on TV, a light flashed in Cui Ning's mind.
"1931 1954" Cui Ning thought of the "Jiaolong Walking Rain Shower" at the bottom of the Qindaihe River, as well as the handwriting written on the case.
"Elder Jiang, Mr. Zhuge , I suspect that there is a conspiracy behind this rainstorm" Cui Ning immediately reported to the two elders in more detail about Qin Daihe's discovery, as well as some speculations about this rainstorm.
"You mean someone is using a formation to make rain?" Mr. Zhuge asked, "How likely is it?"
Cui Ning shook his head, and then nodded again, "With some kind of induction, the formation I destroyed has been activated twice, once in 1931 and once in 1954, and it will disappear in the last year or two, and the breath of this rainstorm itself is also unusual, so I suspect that someone used the forbidden formation to make rain and then create a disaster." ”
"Can you feel the unusual breath of the rainstorm?" Jiang Lao asked, "Then do you think it will be serious?"
"If it's a formation rain, it will be very serious, and if it rains more than nine times, that is to say, if the flood peak exceeds nine times, it may cause a super disaster" Of course, this is what the dragon soul and the little dragon know, after all, they are all dragons, and they are experts in things like the rain.
"Is there any way to do that? First of all, make sure that there is a formation?" said Mr. Zhuge .
"I want to go to Changjiangshui to have a look," Cui Ning said, "But I'm alone, I'm also worried that I can't do it, I don't know how Wanxinglong's Divine Dragon physique is cultivating now?
"Do you want Wan Xinglong to accompany you?" Mr. Zhuge asked, "What other help do you need?"
"Are there any seniors who are good at water kung fu?" Cui Ning asked, "I always feel that this matter is not so simple."
Mr. Zhuge and Jiang Lao looked at each other, "You are talking about the predecessors of the Four Great King Kongs, the Eight Great Bodhisattvas, and the Ten Earth Immortals, right? They usually have important jobs, but if this matter is confirmed, I will try to let an Earth Immortal accompany you, but it may not work in front, you have to explore the path first, after all, the time of these predecessors is very precious."
"What about the Ten Thousand Star Dragons?" Cui Ning asked.
Mr. Zhuge nodded: "Ask him his own opinion, although he is likely to be the body of the divine dragon, but after all, he is affected by the order of heaven and earth, and the ability he can exert at this stage is also limited, and our strength in front of heaven and earth is still very small, and the limit of what he can do underwater now is three days, otherwise his life is in danger."
"Three days" Cui Ning also nodded, "Then let the local people prepare the necessary water equipment, and we will go directly to the water from Changjiang"
A day later, Yicheng, on the bank of the Changjiang River.
Cui Ning, Wan Xinglong, and a ship, and a submarine underwater.
"Recently, you have a little more breath on your body" Wan Xinglong said, "this breath has a vague familiar feeling, there must be some adventure, it is said that you found a treasure in the sea"
"It's the horn of the dragon, it is estimated that it is an extinct species, but it's hard to say, the snow wolf is also said to be extinct, but I have also met" Cui Ning said "The dragon horn is a treasure, just because of this incident, I suspect that this rainstorm is deliberately done"
"It's certainly not easy to be able to travel through clouds and rain," Wan Xinglong said, "Then we'll launch from here?"
"I can only find it slowly," Cui Ning said, "I can feel that there is a special aura in the rain, because I have been in contact with the array of Qin Daihe, and it should have some homologous things."
"This is Changjiang," Wan Xinglong smiled, "But I've always liked water."
"It's all energy, and suppressing this energy not only requires us, I also told Mr. Zhuge and Jiang Lao, but also some high-energy figures need to cooperate with us, so recently the leaders will also come to inspect and use the Son of Heaven to suppress the evil spirit, including Mr. Zhuge promised us that there will be seniors to help us if necessary"
It's been three days.
Cui Ning and Wan Xinglong were in the submarine, and according to the coordinates and route, they searched for the bottom of the river for three days.
"I can't find it," Wan Xinglong said, "and there is no clue at all." ”
"19 provinces, more than 6,300 kilometers" Cui Ning is also a little helpless, "The rainstorm is still falling, but there is no clue"
"I don't feel any fluctuations in energy," Wan Xinglong said, "but it always feels like this rain is a little strange."
Five days.
Seven days.
Ten days.
Twenty days.
There was no trace of the formation, and the two men had to go ashore every other week to make the necessary supplies.
Then I also learned more information about the flood by phone, including reporting to Mr. Zhuge and Jiang Lao.
As for the project of the two people's company, they have arranged a special person to be in charge, although there is some impact, but thinking that they can prevent this disaster, the two people also feel obliged.
Of course, I also communicated with the local old fishermen and learned more about the legends of this water.
Legend has it that more than 4,000 years ago, there was an evil dragon at the confluence of Changjiang and Hanshui, who often made waves to devour passing ships, and all boatmen regarded this area as a ghost gate, and when passing through this place, they had to put incense and kowtow, and throw chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep and other sacrifices into the river to seek peace.
When Dayu controlled the water, Baiguo Lao Xian was sent to descend the dragon, and after 108 rounds of battle, he finally caught the evil dragon, and pressed a square gold seal on the evil dragon, so that it would never wake up.
In order to remember the merits of Dayu forever, the ancestors of Wuhan built a temple by the Hankou River, and offered to King Yu on the shrine of the temple, and the dragon king was offered under the shrine, and the descendants called this temple the Dragon King Temple. The Dragon King Temple has been flourishing incense until the Qing Dynasty.
During the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, the Han water was diverted from Zhuankou to the exit of the Dragon King Temple, the Dragon King Temple section, the river surface is narrow, the bank is steep and the water is urgent, the ship capsizes more, it is known for being dangerous, so some people build the Dragon King Temple and pray for the Dragon King to bless the peace.
During the Anti-Japanese War, the Oriental people bombed this area, making the current Jianghan Park and Hepingli a ruin.
In 1930, the national government built the road, the dragon king temple and its archway were all demolished, as a result of the flood in 1931, Hankou city was flooded for two months, 33,600 people died, it is said that the idiom "the big flood flooded the dragon king temple" originated from this.
Cui Ning and Wan Xinglong chatted about the past of the Great Flood in 1931 and the Dragon King Temple, and Cui Ning couldn't help but sigh slightly:
"People often regard things that are not understood between heaven and earth as feudal superstitions, which is another kind of scientific sorrow"
"It seems that the great flood in 1931 must have been man-made," Wan Xinglong also said, "and it also involves the Oriental country, and there is a faint smell of conspiracy"
Cui Ning also nodded, although history has passed, there are always traces to follow, and after this incident, if you study the floods of 1931 and 1954, there may be more discoveries.
Thinking about these things, and then asking the little dragon and dragon soul in the body:
"Did you feel the fluctuation of the formation, or was it a different aura?"
"I really can't feel it, after all, Changjiang is too big, thousands of kilometers, but there must be mana in the rain" Dragon Soul said, "The Dragon King Temple you mentioned just now, the aura there is very chaotic, and there is obviously a suppression formation that has been destroyed."
"That place is said to be the one that suppressed the evil dragon," Cui Ning whispered, "Then how do you say you can find the Great Array?"
"Or go directly to the sea, not in the submarine" Xiaolong said, "Go to the sea, it will be easier to feel the fluctuation of energy"
Cui Ning thought for a moment. Said to Wan Xinglong, "Otherwise, if you are alone in the submarine, I will go into the water to take a look, last time I also felt the fluctuation of the formation in the sea, this time I still want to go into the water"
Wan Xinglong was stunned, "Last time you were in the near sea, plus there was no wind and waves, this time it was Changjiang, rolling Changjiangdong passing water, not to mention that it is still raining heavily now, once something happens, it will be too dangerous"
"With my body, even if something happens, I can guarantee a safety" Cui Ning gave Wan Xinglong some comfort, "I can't take care of it so much, there have been many flood peaks and warning water levels, you drive the submarine, just follow me, once there is a problem, there is also a safety guarantee"
Cui Ning entered the water, and the dragon soul and the little dragon began to be active in Cui Ning's body again.
"This is Changjiang," the dragon soul said, "Sure enough, it is different from the energy of the sea, the energy here is more active, there must have been a river dragon."
"Then can you feel the dragon aura?" Cui Ning asked.
"No, it's all the breath of concussion now" the dragon soul said, "In the past, our dragon clan had the Dafa to stop the rain, but I forgot"
"Nonsense" Cui Ning shook his head secretly, an unreliable dragon soul.
"But it can release dragon energy, which is equivalent to actively transmitting signals," Xiaolong said, "It will be easier to find it this way."
"Does that affect the weather?" Cui Ning asked.
"There will definitely be, after all, thunder and lightning will chase our dragon energy," said the little dragon, "and there is a good chance that it will increase the amount of rain"
"Then don't do it first, the current outside form is not optimistic" Cui Ning said, "But after all, I have already destroyed a formation, so I think this is our opportunity, and it is very likely that the person who set up the formation found that the formation was destroyed, so he made a desperate bet"
"Oh, I remembered as soon as you said it," the dragon soul said, "You can use the dragon horns to find the big array"
Cui Ning was also in good spirits, "How to find it?"
"The dragon horn and the formation are of the same origin, so with the dragon horn, you should be able to feel it from a long distance, and it will be much easier to find the formation than this," the dragon soul said.
"Why didn't I think of it, I was really confused for a while," Cui Ning said, "Go back to Longdu and take the dragon horns." And then come back to the big array."
When he returned to Longdu, he first reported the situation to Mr. Jiang Lao and Mr. Zhuge , and then explained that he could use the Qi of the Son of Heaven to suppress the possible changes in the energy of heaven and earth, and then went to the Dragon King Temple to worship the matter, including the proposal to rebuild the Dragon King Temple in the future.
When he got home, Cui Ning asked the special car to wait downstairs, thinking about taking the dragon horn and immediately taking the special train back to Yicheng.
I haven't been home for almost a month, and not long after I moved, Cui Ning didn't live in his new home for a few days.
However, to Cui Ning's surprise, the dragon horn that was originally placed in the room was gone.
