The people, like devout Muslims, prayed silently, feared the spirits and gods, and preferred to believe that all natural disasters were punishments from the gods, and they would spare no effort if the gods asked for anything. Some of the scholars who study and become officials believe it, and some disdain it...... That's the case, they also know that the people eat this set, like Jia Yucun's judgment, and the gourd monk will help Luan to invite immortals, which is also a feudal superstition.

On an official road far away, a few carriages were parked on the side of the road, and the servants and servants laid blankets on the green grass, the weather was clear, the wind was harmonious, Luo Guoqi wore a square scarf, wore a silk shirt, hung a jade pendant on his waist, squatted down the blanket, picked up the wine, and toasted a glass to this side.

Sitting with him were two young men, their faces as white as jade, Qi Jia said: "Senior Brother Daqi, the one standing behind is the Gongfu Jia Zili that Senior Brother said?" ”

"Yes, in the next year's children's test, you and others are fierce rivals to each other, in terms of the name of prodigies, the two of you are even above Jia Cong...... However, this Jia Cong is very smart, and even the county zun has adopted his theory of river governance. "Corporal Luo Guoqi Lixian, pour wine for the two of them.

Another young man, Gu Zhen, said arrogantly: "You are in Wanping, I am in Daxing, Daxing County to try, I have no opponent, Qionglou Yuyu, the height is cold!" Senior brother, what are these fools and fools going to do? ”

"Wait and see." Luo Guoqi is gentle and elegant, very good at enjoyment, fine wine and food, one cup at a time, and the people over there are greedy.

Jia Cong in the crowd just glanced at them, and Fan Zhixian said in a low voice: "It's all arranged?" Don't show your feet. ”

"Rest assured." Jia Cong smiled, this time he had just talked, on the wooden platform opposite the high slope under his feet, Kuang Liuhe had already taken out a peachwood sword, chanting spells, casting spells, and burning talismans in a godly manner. Jia Cong had a good opportunity to teach him face-to-face, and Kuang Liuhe received a lot of favor and encouragement from him.

Kuang Liuhe's reputation as a filial son, but also to the villagers good impression, speaking of many people know that he is a fortune teller, some places are quite effective, Kuang Liuhe is afraid that people think he is young, so he pretends to be old, and the villagers do not debunk it.

"The god of the Gyeonggi River, who is in charge of the four seasons is here, who is in charge of you here?" Kuang Liuhe's tone and timbre changed greatly, old, serious and powerful, and his eyes scanned the audience under the high platform sharply, like a sacrosanct and lofty god!

"Oh my God! The river god is possessed! The river god possessed ......"

"Lord River God bless us!"

All the people, black pressure, woo la la, kneeling on the ground, extremely pious! Worship! Song Lichang's beard shook with excitement! The elders shouted that the sky has eyes!

Fan Zhixian was suspicious, his little eyes flashed, down from the high slope, the people got out of the way, Fan Zhixian said: "Lord Qiyu River God, Wanping is now in charge of the little old man, and he is the parent official of the county, and this year the flooding of Wanping land is thousands of acres." The people were deeply affected, and the county dared to ask, but someone offended Lord River God? Lord River God but if he asks for something, this county will inevitably smash the pot and sell iron, bankrupt the family, as a parent official, he will not hesitate! ”

"Lord Qingtian!" Song Lichang shouted excitedly!

Some people were excited and wept, kowtowing again and again, Jia Cong saw this scene, some wanted to laugh, and more were heavy! This is the foolish man and foolish woman in the mouth of the reader! They can't withstand natural disasters and have to pay harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes! Servitude without the guarantee of life rations! But in such a fake show, they believe it to be true, what the people want is just to be fed and clothed, it is simple, but there are both natural disasters and man-made disasters, heaven and earth are unkind, and corruption is rampant!

"The reason why this god is angry and the water is flat is because someone deceived the upper and lower levels." Kuang Liuhe snorted coldly, and his tone was not close to people: "Among you, some people use soil and sand, shoddy, and defile the sanctity of this god, thirteen or twenty-four miles south of the city, and the embankment does not use silicon, you go and check!" ”

In the crowd, Luo Wu and several other corrupt people had a premonition that something was wrong and quietly moved back, but when they reached the periphery, Ma Dianshi smiled and said: "Luo Ling, don't leave beforehand, dare to be disrespectful to Lord River God?" Aren't you afraid that the people will tear you alive? ”

Luo Wu and the others' faces changed suddenly, and when they looked back, the people were really angry! It's not that he's angry, but what's the people's anger about? Someone defiles the river god, isn't it their public enemy?! Shoddy materials? It's not the people along their shores who are suffering? This violated their simplest bottom line, and the people were furious!

Song Lichang was indignant: "Lord Qingtian, the grass people will take people to take a look!" ”

The people also asked to check it out, Fan Zhixian was in a cold sweat, and this trick that Jia Cong gave him didn't work, but the grasp of people's hearts is really terrible! Once so many people lose their minds, how can the county government stop it? Fan Zhixian had no choice but to be tired and tired to appease and send people to investigate.

The fast shift people found out and carried back a few sacks of dirt! Lord River God is right, someone is shoddy! There are serious problems with the materials for river control! How long can the embankment last with these dirt bags? The people are getting angrier!

Fan Zhixian kicked the county Cheng: "You go and ask Lord Heshen, aren't you in charge of the entry and exit bills of Hualiu Civil Engineering?" Check it out for yourself! ”

The county Cheng felt aggrieved, but he had to follow the instructions of the leader and said respectfully: "Lord Qiqi River God!" You're clever, and you're not bad, but that's it...... There are too many river workers in this river, and they are lowly ...... It is difficult to find out who is the surname for a while. ”

"No need to look it up! Bastard thing! Kuang Liuhe's voice seemed to float from the sky, extremely majestic: "These people remember the gods clearly, the leader is a thirty man, named Zhige, push this person into the Yongding River, can stop the fight for a while, and the anger of the gods!" There are also Xia Jiachang, Chen Lichang, Li Ergou ......"

Jia Cong took the opportunity to say: "Zhige, Zhige, it's still thirty men, isn't it Luo Wu of the Luo family?" Fathers and fellow villagers! The river god said that they not only defiled the river god, but also mutilated the Wanping embankment and deceived my Wanping father! ”

"Tie! Tie them up! Throw it into the river! ”

"The Luo family deceives people too much! Just set fire to his house! ”

The anger of the people cannot be suppressed! They just want to repair the dikes, rely on their own labor to feed and clothe themselves, have a place to live, a piece of land, and all these simple demands are stifled! Why? Why?! They couldn't help but say, their eyes were red, like a violent tiger and a hungry wolf, and they tied up Luo Wu, Xia Jiachang and others, put them in a sack, and tied them tightly with thick ropes.

"Master Luo, save me!"

"Wronged! The river god will spare us......"

With a few pops, several sacks were thrown into the Yongding River. In the past, the people who governed the river did not know how to bind the water and attack the sand, and blindly deepened and widened the river, so the water was still not shallow, and moreover, the topography of Hebei was inclined from west to east, Wanping was not the hinterland of the plain, and the river had a drop...... Today, the king of Yongding River has a good relationship with fish and shrimp......

"Lord River God" finally said that a temple must be built for him to worship, and then left, and the people bowed and worshipped, and felt that it was normal for this request, they stood up one by one, and some people looked at Luo Guoqi who was enjoying the wine and food on the side of the official road......

Fan Zhixian was happy, and looked at Jia Cong, and the two smiled sinisterly......

Qin Ye, the county officials, the master bookkeepers, and the canons were dumbfounded......

Luo Wen has already returned, Luo Guoqi is afraid, stay any longer, these fools and fools will not tie him up and put him into the Yongding River, although he has a reputation for showing off his talents, and the county officials will not sit idly by, but it is hard to say...... He was frightened, frightened and angry, he didn't care about Wei Jin's demeanor and gentleness, so he left Qi Jia and Gu Zhen, the two prodigies, and escaped in the carriage......
