With Lu Zheng's strength, pulling such a car, even if it is a mountain road, is easy, and the old man and the old lady are so surprised that they can't close their mouths.

When they arrived in the field, Lu Zheng helped them connect the water belt, dig the ditch, and start slowly irrigating. The growth of corn is indeed not good, the leaves are withered, the leaves of the corn cob are yellow, and the pink and white corn seeds inside can be vaguely seen, which are smaller than the little fingernail cover, if they are taken back and dried, it is estimated that it is equal to white seeds.

After climbing all the way to the mountain, the old man was also a little tired, sat in the field, and told Lu Zheng about the origin of Wen Niangniang Tower.

Legend has it that a long time ago, Lingjiang reasonably held a beautiful and kind dragon princess, and the villagers of Tangtou Village have been neighbors and friends with her for generations, and she has always blessed Tangtou Village with good weather and peace and contentment.

However, the great officials of Simon have a mantra that says well: gold will always be spent, and beauty will always be stripped away.

The beauty of the dragon princess made a monster living in the mountains on the west bank of the Lancang River salivate. It is said that as soon as the monster appears, black clouds roll, and its length is also black and black, which is simply integrated, so everyone can't see the appearance clearly, so it is given a very artistic connotation and symbolic name - black monster.

On a night when he couldn't see his toes, the frenzied black monster took advantage of the dragon princess's outing, threw ** medicine in her cup, and took the opportunity to occupy the dragon princess, and also occupied Lingjiang.

Since then, the black monster has made great fortunes, made waves in the Lingjiang River, and asked the people for tribute in the name of the river god, and the people in the Lingjiang River basin lived in the torrential rain and waves, and there was no more peace.

At first, the sacrifice of cows, horses, pigs and sheep was carried out, and the black monster could stop for a while, until the insatiable black monster asked the people to offer boys and girls to drink and eat, but the villagers refused.

The black monsters, who were annoyed and angry, began to make waves in a big way, causing the wind and rain on both sides of the Lingjiang River to be stormy day by day, lightning and thunder, and mourning all over the field.

Suddenly, one day. The wind carried huge waves and attacked the sleeping people, and countless people were swept into the flood before they could even figure out what was going on, and finally the Lingjiang River turned into an ocean. The two sides of the strait are in shambles.

At this time, a gorgeous rainbow in the sky tore through the night sky, and a fairy like a flower and jade drove the crane to the sky above the Lingjiang River, gently waving the tender green branches in her hand to whip the black monster. In the blink of an eye, the wind and rain subsided. The thunder and lightning gradually subsided, and the flood slowly receded, and the villagers on both sides of the river were able to survive.

The Dark Monster was collected into the branches, and took root and grew into a towering tree, suppressing the Dark Monster underneath the tree.

The people on both sides of the strait thanked the fairy for saving his life, and bowed again and again, but the fairy just claimed to be surnamed Wen, and instructed the villagers to build a water-locked pavilion here, which can lock the water town mountain. The wind and rain were smooth, and then he took the rescued dragon princess to the clouds.

In order to commemorate the god and fairy who rescued the suffering, the local people of insight took the lead in building this water-locked pavilion to ensure the safety of one party and future generations.

It is said that when this water-locked pavilion was in the past, the Lingjiang River was calm and calm, and there was never a flood, and the incense was very prosperous. However, in modern times, it seems that it has not worked very well, and floods have occurred from time to time. Therefore, the worship gradually ceased and decayed.

The old man smoked the cigarette that Lu Zheng handed him, squinted slightly, and looked at the corner of the water lock tower in the distance. sighed: "As the old saying goes, thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, this immortal master probably couldn't imagine that there would be such a dilapidated day." ”

Lu Zheng kept smiling and listening to him finish, and at this time he was completely sure that this tower was not a temple dedicated to Pinglanghou, but a water-locked pavilion.

And the statue of the Marquis of Pinglang. It was clearly brought here recently, including the columns on both sides.

"Old man, old man, hurry up, there's another leak here. ”

The old man was resting his storytelling, and the old lady was not idle, she had been checking back and forth along the ditch, and at this moment she was pointing to a pit where she was gurgling and drinking, and hurriedly sealed it with a shovel in her hand.

Watering in the fields, which is very common, these caves are some rabbit holes, some are mole holes, and they are soaked in water and cause collapses, forming large holes for drinking water.

The old man hurriedly stood up, picked up the shovel and rushed over to block it, while filling in the soil, he muttered: "What's going on, every time I pour the ground, it leaks to the bottom, and the plug can't be blocked." ”

Lu Zheng, who was standing on the side, also felt a little strange, this hole seemed to be only the size of a fist, as long as it collapsed with a shovel and then filled with soil, it was easy to block.

But the strange thing is that as soon as the hole is blocked, it will immediately collapse, as if there is an inexplicable suction force underneath, sucking all the dirt in.

The two old men hurriedly blocked it, but the water was still gurgling down, and in the end, they had no choice but to plug the ditch and dig it from the other side.

But another layer of ditch had just been brought in water, and with a muffled bang, a big hole collapsed, and the mouth of the black hole was open to suck the water in.

"Uncle, let me try. ”

Lu Zheng snatched the shovel from the old man's hand, shoveled it into the soil, stirred it a little, and immediately noticed something strange.

"Uncle, you're quite sturdy down here, not like there's a hole. ”

The soil layer was not what he had imagined, there were no huge potholes, and it was very strong.

Odd!

"yes. The old man's eyebrows were locked into Sichuan characters, and he said with a wry smile: "My old man has been planting this land for five or six years, and it's strange for you to say it. I haven't seen rabbits and mice burrowing in the ground in recent years. Since half a year ago, every time it rains, the ground leaks like a sieve. ”

"yes. ”

Seeing that the entrance to the cave could not be blocked, but had a tendency to grow bigger and bigger, the old lady had to tie the hose tightly, pointed to other people's crops, and said with a bitter face: "Yes, you look at other people's crops." If you look at our crops again, what kind of drought you plant in this field, what kind of work you plant is in vain, what kind of sin do you say you have created? ”

The same corn is planted, and the terraced fields not far away are tall and green, while the fields here are low and yellow, bent over and languishing.

When things go wrong, there must be demons.

Lu Zheng looked at the surrounding environment, and it seemed that it was no different from other terraces.

If you have to say the difference, it can only be said that the orientation of this field is not very good, it is at the very edge of the mountain, and the place five or six meters away from the ridge of the field is a bluestone cliff.

Walking to the cliff and looking down, it is about five or six meters high, the cliff is bare, there is no grass, and it doesn't look unusual.

Turning his gaze to the field, looking at the old couple with sad faces on the ridge of the field, Lu Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and he used the dragon qi to use the magic technique, infiltrated into the field that had just been watered, and began to investigate the reason by borrowing the trickle of downward infiltration.

The underground was drier than he had imagined, but instead of being absorbed by the soil, the trickle gradually gathered together and flowed rapidly towards the underground.

The soil is dry and cracked at a depth of about ** meters, and the temperature rises significantly, which is quite similar to the underground source of hot springs.

After a while, Lu Zheng's tiger body was shocked, the tiger's eyes widened, the tiger's whip shook, and the tiger's head and tiger head ......

A biting chill spread out from the scorching heat, and even he, the Dragon Monarch, felt a biting chill go down his spine to his brain.

The flow of water with the help of the Ghost Technique was evaporated without warning, and Lu Zheng's vision suddenly disappeared.

The moment the vision disappeared, Lu Zheng saw a cloud of darkness, a bottomless darkness. (To be continued.) )
