Chapter 15, the people of Chidi are anxious
Chichi Chiri!
In the past, I didn't know what kind of description this was, but now I know. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As far as the eye can see, there are only dry rivers and cracked fields. Dead seedlings and trees.
There is no one left. Spring grows, summer grows, autumn harvests, and winter storage. Without the spring and summer growth in front of us, this land is only left with despair.
When I walked into a village, I found that there were no living people in the whole village, and those who could escape had fled, and the rest had turned into starvation on the side of the road.
This is true in one village, and so in another........ Lichen could only give up the itinerary on the road and rush to the county seat from the sky with Yunhua.
There was a shack outside the county, and the fleeing crowd almost surrounded the entire county. The county magistrate no longer has the grandeur of the county in the past, and he visits the big households in the county everywhere, begging for some food to be donated. Because the refugees outside the city have become a volcano, turning him and the county government behind him into a piece of powder.
"Master. Why doesn't it rain here" Yunhua saw so many dying refugees for the first time, and he couldn't accept it.
"As a teacher, I don't know" Lichen shook his head. He wondered where this catastrophe began. But he had already calculated many times, and found that the heavens were hazy and chaotic. It's not something that can be calculated by his little deeds. It's just that I have an intuition that my path to heaven is inseparable from this disaster, so I resolutely changed my itinerary and arrived here.
"Aren't you iron-clad, why can't you figure it out" Obviously, Yun Hua has everything in his heart.
"The killing machine from heaven has its own great cause and effect, and it can't be counted as a teacher's involvement in it," Lichen patiently replied.
Walking through the shack area, Lichen took the degree, and no matter how he looked at it, he didn't want to be a refugee, so he entered the city smoothly. It's just that the situation in the city is not very good. The price of food is sky-high, and even many rich households can't support it, let alone the common people. Now a boy can exchange 2 catties of rice. The girl is only 3 pounds. The cheapness of human life can be seen.
But there are still people selling sons and daughters everywhere. It's just because it's hard to be a slave, but at least you can survive. In order for their children to survive, how can parents not give up their hearts and sell their biological children.
"Master, they are so pitiful" Yun Hua looked at the boys and girls who were sold on the street and felt empathy, and his eyes were red.
"Hey~~" Lichen knew how many catties and taels he had, so he could only act as if he couldn't see it, and quickly passed through on behalf of Yunhua.
The continuous drought in northern Shaanxi not only worried the local people, from the emperor to the cabinet ministers to the local Qipinzhi County, all of them were worried about their hearts. I am afraid of provoking a civil uprising, and when the time comes, it will add fuel to the fire and get out of control. That's why we are doing our best to provide disaster relief. This is also the reason why there has been no big riot so far. But there are so many people. How much grain can the imperial court allocate is a drop in the bucket. So now Shanyang Zhixian is exhausted, and his hair is gray.
"Everything just needs to rain." Zhixian thought to himself. But God just doesn't rain what can be done. Now he is sick and rushed to the doctor. Even the son was silent, and he didn't care about the strange power, and for several months, he went down the list to ask for someone who could pray for rain. There are a lot of recruits, asking for the dragon king and worshipping the rain master. Kneel to the city god. All the capable ones are done. It still hasn't rained. The county lord of the fire went down with a board. No one dares to cheat anymore.
At noon that day, the county lord had just come over from a few grain merchants, and he was so tired that he was panting. At this time, a disciple came to report---- and another Taoist priest unveiled the official list of asking for rain.
The magistrate was stunned, since he beat the previous few liars who begged for no rain, no one dared to come to the door for more than a month. Let's hope I won't be a liar again this time. But hope is better than hopelessness.
The county remembers and prepares to meet the people praying for rain.
Waiting for the dust to come in, Zhixian began to beat the drum in his heart. This person is too young, how many ways can he do, and there is a female doll behind him.
The magistrate played the drums and returned to the drums, and still warmly received the dust and his party. He also promised that as long as he could ask for rain, he would be rewarded, and reported to the court to ask for a reward from the court.
Lichen smiled and didn't care. It's just a matter of my own cultivation path, so I have to be cautious. Praying for rain to save the entire northern Shaanxi drought, even if his mana is ten times thicker, it is useless. But it is possible to save this ten miles in a radius. When the time comes, if it doesn't work to pray for rain in the heavenly court, at least you can transport mana, gather the surrounding water vapor, and scatter sweet rain for this ten-mile radius.
"I don't know when the immortal master will be ready, and how much rain he can beg for" Zhixian was very anxious.
"I don't know what the cause of this drought is. Therefore, it is impossible to get the old Li people of northern Shaanxi. But this is a radius of ten miles, and it is certain that rain and dew will fall. Poor Dao came this time to understand the suffering of the people, and also obtained this immeasurable merit. When praying for rain, I hope to discover the cause and effect of this drought, so that this disaster can be truly eliminated," replied Chen.
"It's only ten miles," Zhixian was a little disappointed. But what if people have already said that they will do their best? Rain is better than nothing. At least it can relieve the people's worries about drinking water in the city. More than 40 of the more than 50 wells in the county have been dried.
"Okay, I'll prepare the rain prayer altar for the immortal master immediately, I don't know what else Mr. has requested. When can I start? ā
"Oh, tomorrow morning. But I hope not to be in the city, but outside the city. And asked the people outside the city to petition the heavens together, hoping to use the power of lifelong wishes to communicate with the gods. Get the answer," said Lichen,
On the same day, Xianzun seemed to be afraid of the dust and ran away, and repeatedly stayed at the county government to stay overnight, so that they could pray for rain outside the city together tomorrow. Lichen smiled secretly in his heart, he had no choice. Go back to your room and meditate. Prepare for rain tomorrow.
