Chapter 423: The Celestial Phenomenon of Flowing Fire
The four hundred and twenty-third round
What is rare is that this mountain god doesn't feel that he is old enough to be the ancestor of Qin Ying's eighth generation, and he calls himself very comfortable.
As a mountain god of the Taihang Mountains, he did not put a high shelf, and talked to Qin Ying very cordially, asking her how to govern the mountain.
Qin Ying asked him in turn how the floods in Hedong occurred in the first month of this year.
The young man coughed lightly with his left hand on his sleeve, and a look of memory appeared on his face: "...... That's a long story. ”
The Taihang Mountains are adjacent to the two canals of the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal.
This waterway, which runs through the south and north of the river, was built under the auspices of Emperor Yang of the former dynasty. spent countless manpower and financial resources, which was also a major reason why later generations criticized him for being mediocre.
However, in the eyes of the young mountain god, the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal is a good thing for the country and the people.
"In the spring, when the temperature warms up, the ice in the upstream river melts into water, but there are still places in the downstream that are covered with ice, and the already high water level is congested, and flooding occurs...... Even if there are canals that share some of the pressure, the main road will have to be counted on for drainage. His voice grew lower, as if he were very sad about the flood.
Qin Ying thought for a while and wondered, "Shouldn't there be a dam built around the waterway?" ”
The young man sighed helplessly and said: "At the time of the transition of winter and spring, the river has accumulated a lot of water, and what can a few meters of embankment prevent, even the Taihang Mountain Valley has been affected because of its low terrain. ”
When she heard this, she couldn't help but feel that the situation was tricky. She had done feng shui in the mountains a few times before, and saw that the soil on the mountainside also had wet marks, and there were some messy scratches on the trees.
The young man sat beside Qin Ying, made a pergola at the eyebrow bone with his hand, looked at the barren scenery under the mountain from afar, and said: "There are no tributaries in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and it flows into the sea by the main trunk every spring. At the same time, after the main trunk flows through the Taihang Mountain, it is the appearance of the river on the ground. As a result, flooding often occurs. Qin Daochang still thinks that the key to water control is mountain control? ”
Qin Ying nodded and responded, "Have the mountain gods ever thought about why there is a river on the ground in the lower reaches of the Yellow River?" Seeing him blink blankly, she smiled bitterly and said, "If the vast mountains and soil have not flowed into the river, how can the river rise year after year to the earth?" ”
The young man was stunned for a moment and finally answered: "It turns out that controlling the mountain soil to prevent diarrhea is also an indirect method of water control. ”
"It's a pity that I don't have a place to implement this thought." Qin Ying said and lay down on the grass full of green leaves.
"I wonder if Xiaosheng is helping the Taoist leader?" The boy stood up and asked respectfully.
Qin Ying squinted his eyes and stared at him intently against the dazzling sun for a long time, and after a few twists and turns in his mind, he came up with a clever plan.
The team of Confucians, led by the old man, didn't they just want to see her feng shui ability? Predicting astronomical and geographical phenomena should also be a method of self-proof. The Taihang Mountain God has been here for a thousand years, so it is only appropriate for him to predict it.
The boy heard her heart, and before she could speak, he readily agreed. After all, Qin Ying's righteous thoughts for the sake of others coincide with himself.
Then the two talked in a low voice, and the "cheating" process was properly handled. Seeing that the trouble had been solved, Qin Ying said goodbye to the god of Taihang Mountain, went down the mountain with all his fists, and returned to the mansion where everyone in the team was temporarily resting.
Li Chengqian saw that Qin Ying was in a better mood when he went out, so he leaned beside her and asked cautiously: "Do you really want to do whatever it takes to put the content of the silk book into practice?" ”
Qin Ying pretended to be displeased: "Otherwise, do you think that I am idle and bored to write silk books for fun?" Seeing his deflated appearance, Qin Yingqiang couldn't hold back the desire to laugh, held his belt in his left hand, and suddenly bullied him and pressed him under him and said seriously, "If I win the agreement, Your Highness will let me do whatever I want for the next three days." ”
Li Chengqian's face turned red rarely, and he leaned his neck half ashamedly and half annoyed, as if he didn't want to show weakness, and took the initiative to kiss the corner of her mouth.
"Your Highness, lie down obediently tomorrow night, and wait for me to eat and wipe you clean." She had long expected that he would be unwilling, so her left hand ambiguously stroked his abdomen, stopped at the other party's left chest, and struck the beating heart with her index finger. Leisurely and flirtatiously reacted to the other party, and the culprit threw off his sleeves and walked away.
Li Chengqian collapsed stiffly behind the table, grinding his teeth in his heart and saying: What a little thing that doesn't make people live in peace.
She went to the wing of the assassin history, first said that she shouldn't have said goodbye just now, and then said that she went out to be a feng shui, and learned that there would be a fire scene tomorrow night, and everyone could go to the hill to see what was going on.
Thorn Shi didn't understand what a flowing fire was, but he pretended to bow his head calmly, saying that he would convey the news to the others.
“…… Flowing fire? When Qin Ying proudly raised his eyebrows and told Li Chengqian, the other party returned an inquiring gaze.
"It's the stars in the sky that fall like rain. Has Your Highness ever seen a flowing fire? Qin Ying picked up the unfinished scroll, put it in his arms, and prepared to take it to the couch to continue reading.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian also felt sleepy, stood up and grabbed her arm to prepare for sleep, and while sticking to Qin Ying spinelessly, he asked, "I was fortunate to see it a few years ago." Flowing fire is a common occurrence on summer nights, right? It's still late spring, are you sure that tomorrow will really have that celestial phenomenon? ”
She snorted and didn't divulge the secret.
Li Chengqian has been observing Qin Ying all day long, wanting to see if she has made small moves, but naturally he can't catch the handle.
After the convoy sat around a table and had dinner, they gathered in a pile in twos and threes and went up the mountain to see Qin Ying's so-called "flowing fire" celestial phenomenon.
Qin Ying and Thorn Shi walked on the same road, while Li Chengqian took a soft sedan chair and followed a few steps behind them.
After the sunset fell into the western mountain, the evening breeze gradually cooled, and the hill had an altitude of 100 zhang, not yet the top of the hill, Li Chengqian shrank into a ball, and his hands grabbed the robe on his body, but the cold air seemed to penetrate his heart, causing him to tremble and sneeze.
When he got off the sedan chair and waited for a short time, he really saw a round of fire.
At this time, Li Chengqian was speechless.
I remember that the ancient books recorded that in ancient times Dayu controlled the water, he could let the gods and ghosts move mountains and chisel wood for it. And Qin Ying can predict celestial phenomena, and his ability is not much worse.
If he knew that she was a guy who pretended to be a pig and ate a tiger, he would never stop her from fighting the Confucianism, nor would he stop her from showing off her feng shui.
On the way down the mountain, Qin Ying opened the sedan curtain and whispered to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness should fulfill the agreement tonight." This kind reminder, how to listen to how ill-intentioned.
Li Chengqian frowned, couldn't think of appropriate words to answer, snorted awkwardly, and kept thinking about how to counterattack in his heart.
In terms of circumstances, the two have always been incompatible.
Since she has experimented with the Tianfeng Concubine Hexagram and the Fengtian Little Animal Hexagram, she has to compete with him every time she sleeps together. (To be continued.) )
