"Folks, you can't do this! This kid is innocent! On the banks of the Yellow River, Chai Shao was trying to prevent a ridiculous thing. The cause of the incident has to start with the breach of the Yellow River.

Three days ago, the couple invited Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling to Li Mansion as guests, but when they had a good conversation, the news of the Yellow River breach in Hedong County was reported to the mansion. Due to the urgency of the situation and the seriousness of the situation, the people in Li Fuzhong followed the advice of Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui and immediately divided into three ways to go to the disaster: the first road was led by Li Jiancheng and went to Jinyang to ask Li Yuan to make countermeasures, so as to prepare for the relief of the refugees and the replanting of acres of land after the disaster; The second way is for Li Xiuning to go to the Li Family Industry Office in Guanlong to collect and mobilize food and clothing, so as to provide initial support to the disaster area as soon as possible, otherwise the refugees will lack food and clothing, and riots are likely to occur; The third way is to lead the Li family personnel who are still in Chang'an led by Chai Shao to stabilize the people and survey the terrain first, so as to prepare for the subsequent digging of ditches and drainage. And all of this is to minimize the casualties and losses of the people before the relief of the imperial court arrives!

However, when Chai Shao and his party arrived in Hedong County, they found that the people here were carrying out a sacrificial ceremony, and the process of the ritual was to send a lonely little girl to the river to sacrifice to the river god, so that the river god could calm his anger and let them resume farming and rebuild their homes as soon as possible. This kind of thing, people like Chai Shao who have read books don't believe it, this kind of thing has happened in all dynasties, and it was not finally solved by the imperial court's disaster relief.

"Chai Gongzi, don't worry about it, it's always been like this here." The local county admonished. Because of his knowledge of the local people, he sometimes can't interfere too much in this kind of thing. After all, the breach of the Yellow River has affected the livelihood of a large number of people, and these people can do anything in the face of shortage of food and clothing.

"But......" Chai Shao looked at the little girl who was tied to the altar, and looked around with ignorant eyes, as if he was looking for someone who could save him, but at the same time, there was also a faint trace of indifference, as if he also knew that no one here could save him.

"Mr. Fang, Mr. Du?" Chai Shao looked at Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui. When they first received the news of the Yellow River breach, these two people took the initiative to ask Ying to be the disaster relief principals, and they should have found a way to deal with today's situation.

"Hey! The people's customs are stupid. Dealing with this kind of thing, Fang Xuanling can only sigh with emotion. Folk customs are limited by the people's cognition, and have always followed the customs left by some ancestors, which is not an exception, and most of them have this kind of omission in any place every time there is a natural disaster. But if you want to abolish this custom, it is not said that it can be done, unless this kind of ritual is stopped, and the effect can be seen by these people immediately, otherwise these people are likely to sacrifice even those who stop it!

"Daochang Li?" Zhang Chuchen did not ask Fang and Du, but asked Li Chunfeng. The appearance of the little girl reminded her of her experience when she was a child, and she sincerely hoped that Li Chunfeng could have a way to save people. But Li Jing's experience of traveling around the rivers and lakes also told her that outsiders can't meddle in this kind of matter casually.

Sure enough, Li Chunfeng just stretched out his hand and didn't say anything. It wasn't until the ceremony entered the final stage, when the little girl was put down from the altar by the people, put on a lonely boat, and was about to cut the cable with his hands, that Li Chunfeng finally shouted: "Wait." ”

Li Chunfeng walked up and said to the old man who presided over the sacrifice: "Old man, in fact, I am the one who angered the river god, you send this child over, it's useless!" ”

"Daochang Li!"

Hearing Li Chunfeng say this, Chai Shao and the others immediately became anxious. Of course, they didn't believe that it was Li Chunfeng who angered the river god, but if the old man believed Li Chunfeng's words, then Li Chunfeng would probably really be sent into the river to be sacrificed!

"You?" Obviously, compared to the words of this outsider, the old man still preferred to believe that the child of the father and mother was the one who angered the river god.

"If you don't believe me, you can send me to the river first, if it doesn't work, it's not too late for you to send her again!" After Li Chunfeng finished speaking, seeing that he didn't speak, he walked straight to the little girl, and after picking up the little girl, he came to Li Jing and his wife and said, "You Lao and you will take care of her first." ”

"Daochang Li, are you serious?" Although Li Jing believes that Li Chunfeng is a person with strange skills, but now he is going to be sent to the Yellow River to worship the river god! That's the Yellow River!

"Seriously, of course." Li Chunfeng replied: "I have to bother the two of you, borrow your saber and use it." ”

Although he didn't know why, Li Jing was embarrassed to refuse, and in the end, Li Chunfeng stepped on the boat with one hand and the remnants with the other. As the cable was cut, Li Chunfeng also took this small boat, and under the gaze of everyone, he drifted into the center of the Yellow River.

Yes, it floated in! No matter how fierce the waves of the Yellow River were, his boat never capsized! The surging Yellow River seemed to be avoiding Li Chunfeng, and when the fierce water reached Li Chunfeng's surroundings, it plunged into the bottom of the river by itself. It wasn't until Li Chunfeng reached the center of the river that he pulled out the broken wreck, and then quickly paddled on the surface of the river.

Rumble! The river instantly shook a big wave, a wave like a dormant dragon head, which threw Li Chunfeng and the boat high off the water. But that's all, and then Li Chunfeng landed safely on the boat.

"Toast and don't eat and drink!" Li Chunfeng urged the sword technique, and the remnants immediately came out of the sheath, hovering high in the air, and when another water wave surged, the remnants of the stunned stabbed straight down, nailing down the dragon head that had just rushed down, and the original rushing Yellow River was quickly calmed down because of this sword.

Sure enough! Xiao Zhuo sighed.

When he learned that Yuan Tiangang had cut off the dragon vein of the Great Sui, he couldn't figure out how Yuan Tiangang did it, until they came here and learned that a bridge over Bashui had collapsed, and he vaguely understood what was going on - the Hanging Cambridge!

There is a saying in the world: all living beings in the world, birds are long with phoenixes, beasts are long with unicorns, and scales are long with golden dragons. And among these three, the creatures under each genus, as the bloodline is far apart, will also be far from their elder holy beasts. Among the genus of scales, the closest to the bloodline of the golden dragon is the dragon. It is also said that the dragon is hidden in the mountains and rivers of the world, and every time it turns into a dragon, it must swim downstream to the sea to complete the transformation, and this phenomenon is called a walking dragon. And when walking Jiao, the light is flying sand and stones, and the heavy is the discoloration of the heaven and earth, and as a result, after each Jiao, the bridge above the river is completely destroyed. So later, the world hung a sharp sword under the bridge to warn the dragon to turn into a dragon with peace of mind and not to act recklessly.

According to Xiao Zhuo's guess, Yuan Tiangang should have used this method to build three hanging Cambridge bridges at the sources of Jingshui, Weishui, and Bashui, which cut off the dragon veins of Chang'an, causing the dragon spirit of the Yellow River to be broken. And now that this limb and foot have been reconnected by him, Long Ling Dahe is naturally about to lose his temper. But it doesn't matter if the temper has been lost, if it doesn't stop like this, then the people on both sides of the strait will be affected too badly because of him!

"Immortals!" On the riverbank, the people saw Li Chunfeng subduing the surging Yellow River like a miracle, and under the leadership of one person, they all knelt down to worship Li Chunfeng.

"Mr. Fang, you hold this sword, whatever you want these people to do in the future, they will listen to you." After Li Chunfeng returned to the riverbank, he handed over the martyrdom to Fang Xuanling.

Now Fang Xuanling is very happy! When he and Du Ruhui came, they were most worried about nothing more than that the local people were not educated and did not cooperate with him in dispatching disaster relief. After all, no one can be reasonable. But now, Li Chunfeng has established the status of a god-man in the hearts of the people in one fell swoop, and the sword used by Li Chunfeng has become a representative of a god-man. With this sword, what he had to do next was much easier.

"Chai Gongzi." Xiao Zhuo turned to Chai Shao again and said, "When the disaster relief is completed, if you can, it is best to build a bridge here." After Xiao Zhuo finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the Yellow River in front of him. The so-called hanging Cambridge, the sword is intended to be slashed, the bridge is intended to be in the town, and if you want to keep the waters here calm, I am afraid that you will not be able to suppress it for long with the stunned and murderous atmosphere.

"This ...... Daochang Li, it's a little difficult to do! It's unprecedented! Chai Shao looked at the direction pointed by Li Chunfeng, it was the Yellow River! Thousands of miles of galloping never stop, the flow is so large that it can be built by building a bridge! In other words, the person who can build a bridge over the Yellow River is enough to write it down in history!

"Hmmm! It's a little hard. Xiao Zhuo also recognized this, so he said: "Don't worry, take your time, there will always be a way." ”

"Xiao Qing! How do you think this should be handled? In the Luoyang Palace, Yang Guang also asked Xiao Yu how to deal with the breach of the Yellow River in Hedong County.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the Yellow River has breached, and the disaster relief is urgent, otherwise the victims will inevitably be in chaos under the shortage of food and clothing. According to the minister's opinion, taking advantage of the fact that the weather has just entered autumn at this time, the Guangtong warehouse should be opened immediately to provide relief to the victims, and autumn grain seeds should also be prepared. Then Chang'an and Jinyang will send additional personnel to dredge the river as soon as possible to eliminate floods, as long as it is handled properly, it should still be able to catch up with this autumn planting, as long as the fields are planted with crops, the people's hearts will be settled, and there will be no more big chaos. After Xiao Yu's words were finished, he also got Yang Guang's approval, but as the king of a country, Yang Guang also had his own considerations, "But it may be inappropriate for this matter to be handled by the local government, and the imperial court still has to treat it seriously." Xiao Qing, why don't you go and personally supervise the handling of this matter? ”

"The minister must live up to his mission." Xiao Yu received the order and was about to retreat, but on the other side, Yu Wenhua came out and stopped Xiao Yu, "Lord Xiao, slow down." Then he turned to Yang Guangyu and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is better for Lord Xiao to bring some soldiers and horses to be safe." ”

"Lord Yuwen, why is that?" Although Xiao Yu doesn't like Yu Wenhua's personality, Xiao Yu did not directly oppose Yu Wenhua's suggestion, after all, although Yu Wenhua and people are greedy, their words may not be completely undesirable.

"Lord Xiao, it will take two days for the news of the Yellow River breach to reach Luoyang, even if you hurry up, it will be two days later. In the past four days, the victims of the disaster have already gathered in chaos! ”

"Lord Yuwen is too worried." When Xiao Yu heard that Yu Wenhua was worried about this, her heart also relaxed a lot. "This time the Yellow River burst, most of the flooded land is the private land of the Guanlongshi clan, with the financial resources of these families, if they only wait for the imperial court to come to relieve the disaster, I am afraid that the biggest loss is themselves."

After Xiao Yu left, Yang Guang looked at Yu Wenhua again, and saw that he seemed to have something to say, so he asked again: "Yuwen Shaoqing, do you still have something?" ”

"Returning to Your Majesty." Yu Wenhua replied: "It was Lord Pei Renji who had something wrong. ”

"What's the matter?" Of course, Yang Guang didn't believe that Pei Renji had already laid down the tile gang, because the imperial court had a special post station to deliver the war report, and the good news of the battle must first be transmitted to Luoyang through the post station, and Yu Wenhua could not know it before him.

"It's Master Pei who ......" Yu Wenhua and when he said this, he was also a little uncertain, after all, what he got was only a private letter sent to him by his son Yuwen Chenglong, although the things in the letter were doubtful, but it was not to the point of conclusive evidence. But what he said in the letter was related to the important affairs of the imperial court, so he had to report it. "Master Pei, he may have taken refuge in Wagang."

Yu Wenhua said, and hurriedly took out the letter and presented it, and what the letter said was all the strange things that Yuwen Chenglong thought was in the conquest of Wagang. One of them is that Yuwen Chenglong himself just started three battles and three victories, wounded three generals in Wagang, and captured one alive. At that time, Pei Yuanqing's injury was almost better, so he went into battle on behalf of Yuwen Chenglong, but he was injured again after only one battle. Then Yuwen Chenglong fought again, and still fought again and won. Yuwen Chenglong originally wanted to take advantage of the situation to attack the Wagang rebels, but Pei Renji ordered him not to fight again, and the whole army was only besieged. Therefore, Yuwen Chenglong suspected that Pei Renji was likely to have secretly defected to Wagang.

"In this way, I can't see that Pei Renji has defected to Wagang." After reading the letter, Yang Guang did not believe what was said in the letter. "But just in case, Shaoqing, it's better for you to invite Pei Renji's family to Luoyang."

～～～～

"Strategist, Yu Wenhua and really believe that Pei Renji has defected?" Qin Qiong stood at the head of the city, looking at Pei Renji's army outside the city, and he was also a little worried. It has been two days since Xu Shiji's anti-intermittent plan was set, and it will be these two days before it succeeds or fails.

"He may not believe it at first, but if he goes to arrest Pei Renji's family, only to find that there is no one in Pei's family, what do you think he will think?" Xu Shiji asked rhetorically. In order to set up this counter-plan, he can be described as painstaking. In order to make Yuwen Chenglong disobey Pei Renji's dispatch because of the arrogance of the enemy, the Wagang generals, including Qin Qiong, Shan Xiongxin, Wang Bodang, and Wang Junke, were all defeated by Yuwen Chenglong one by one. When Pei Yuanqing went to war, it was Luo Shixin who fought him to the point of losing his strength in one fell swoop, and then Yuwen Chenglong was captured, and he wrote the letter full of suspicion under the greed for life and fear of death, in order to let Yu Wenhua and his suspicion be presented to Yang Guang, as long as the court is suspicious, he will definitely take precautions.

"Hmmm! It stands to reason that they should also take Pei Renji's house back! When Qin Qiong said this, she couldn't help but admire Xu Shiji's thoughtfulness. On the one hand, in the form of a family letter, the information about Pei Renji's possible defection was secretly informed to Yu Wenhua, and on the other hand, Pei Renji's family was first taken to Wagang, so that as long as the imperial court sent someone to arrest Pei Renji's family, it was bound to fail, so Pei Renji's rebellion was nine out of ten in the eyes of the imperial court. As long as they let Pei Renji know that Yuwen Chenglong had sold him, then Pei Renji would have to rebel at this time, even if he hadn't thought about rebellion before!
