Chapter 110: Dissolution
The people of Mingfeng County can be said to be the people who are most familiar with the Dragon King in addition to the people of Qingping County.
After being taken away by the Dragon King, the remaining people in Mingfeng County actually have more bad feelings towards Liu Dalu than good feelings, and these people are also more inclined to Liu Dalu to be a snake demon rather than a dragon king.
Even those businessmen who had been to Qingping County, although they did not see Liu Dalu eating people, Liu Dalu's huge and hideous body would always make these people feel afraid, and they also thought that Liu Dalu was a snake demon with a greater chance than the Dragon King.
This thought went on until now they want to pray for rain...
On the city wall of Mingfeng County, several sergeants gathered together, and they were also talking about praying for rain, it was a coincidence that these sergeants were the few sergeants that Liu Dalu had seen when he came to Mingfeng County.
At the beginning, Liu Dalu said casually, saying that his divine power was limited, and he could not shelter other places except Qingping County, so that these sergeants could ask for more blessings.
After listening to some words, it's okay if nothing happens, but when something happens, people are easy to be suspicious, and now the more they recall what Liu Dalu said, the more scared they feel, and they keep thinking in their hearts, is that really the dragon king? The reason why Mingfeng County is drought now is because the Dragon King is angry and does not give rain to Mingfeng County?
"You say, is that really the dragon king?" A sergeant said quietly.
"Be quiet." Another sergeant said, "The adults have said it several times, you can't say that it is the dragon king, you have to call it a snake demon." ”
"Yes, they eat meat and drink wine every day, but what about us? My family's fields are all dry, and if it doesn't rain again, it will definitely not be done this year, if it weren't for them saying that it was a snake demon, would we be able to have a drought here? The sergeant who spoke was full of resentment.
"My family's field is almost dry, and my father's health is not good, if it is not completed this year, he will have to sell the field again."
"My little sister is going to get married this year, but looking at the current weather, it is impossible to get married, yesterday I heard my father and my mother discuss to sell my little sister to the Tian family as a maid, and my little sister cried for a night."
"The Tian family? Don't you know what kind of virtue that family is? ”
"I know, but what's the solution?"
"This damn world."
"How is Qingping County, do you have any news?"
"Now they don't let us go over there, there is no news, but the Zhen family will bring back some grapes from there every time, and there is something that seems to be a salt fruit, all of which are high-quality refined salt."
"Well, so, the people of Qingping County must be better than us."
"Actually, I regret it, I should have listened to that person in the first place and went to Qingping County with me."
All the sergeants were silent, because everyone here had regrets in their hearts, thinking that if they went to Qingping County, would it be better than now?
Going around and around, a few people talked about praying for rain again, but they expressed pessimism about praying for rain this time, the dragon king is next door, Mingfeng County is now evil to the dragon king, and you still want the dragon king to rain? Dreaming, right?
These sergeants also represent the attitude of the people at the bottom of Mingfeng County now, who are very resentful and quite pessimistic.
If praying for the rain goes well, all the contradictions will be suppressed temporarily, but if the prayer for the rain does not go well, then these contradictions will erupt.
Two days later, it was a good day, and Mingfeng County began to pray for rain.
Bamboo woven into a skeleton, glued with cloth, formed the shape of a dragon, a team of wrestlers carrying the dragon king first in the streets and alleys to show a look, during which someone with willow branches dipped in water, towards the dragon king, a circle after the city, the altar has been laid out outside the city, the sacrifice has been placed, Mingfeng County Zun stepped on the altar, read the prayer for rain, and finally all the high-level and nobles of Mingfeng County bowed to the dragon king.
The prayer for rain ended, but it was useless, and for several days, the sky was still sunny, and everyone could see that there was no sign of rain at all, and the sun seemed to be laughing at this group of ignorant mortals: Feel my anger.
It hasn't rained, and the people of Mingfeng County naturally don't dare to blame the Dragon King, but they have to find an outlet, so a few days after praying for rain, there is a saying in Mingfeng County, saying that it was because the Shijia Shiwu angered the Dragon King, causing the Dragon King to be angry and condemned to Mingfeng County, and it will not rain in Mingfeng County in the future...
This statement made Shi Yi return to the house that day and fell a lot of things, Shi Yi knew that this was someone in the county who was fighting back against him, the reason is also very simple, he touched the interests of some people, the biggest is likely to be some merchants, you must know that Qingping County has grapes and salt fruits, these two good things, so that the merchants are dying, but Mingfeng County is under martial law, and the merchants can't go to Qingping County, blocking people's money, like killing parents, don't get you Shi Gui to get who?
Don't say that the Shi family is very powerful in Jiaozhou, no matter how powerful the Shi family is, it is impossible to make the entire Jiaozhou a monolith, and now Shi Xie has not become an assassin in Jiaozhou.
The Dragon King didn't know what was happening in Mingfeng County, so when Shi Wen came to Qingping County again and talked about what happened in Mingfeng County, he was a little surprised.
"Mingfeng County begged me for rain?"
"Yes, and now there is a saying in Mingfeng County, saying that the Shi family has angered you, Master Longwang, and you are angry, and you are no longer ready to give rain to Mingfeng County." After a pause, Shi Wen asked cautiously: "Master Dragon King, is it true that it will not rain in Mingfeng County in the future?" ”
The Dragon King was silent for a moment: "What do you think?" ”
Shi Wen hurriedly said: "The little one doesn't dare to say anything, but the Dragon King is kind and loves the people like a son, so he shouldn't ignore the people, right?" ”
The Dragon King smiled: "God is also angry. ”
When Shi Wen heard this, his face changed, he already believed that the real dragon king in front of him was the real dragon king, and didn't the dragon king's meaning be obvious? He was angry.
When Shi Wen returned to Mingfeng County, he told Zhen Xun in detail about the conversation with the Dragon King.
"That's what he said?"
"Absolutely."
Zhen Xun pondered for a while, of course he also knew the recent rumors in Mingfeng County, and he also knew that it was done by other businessmen, he didn't want to pay attention to it, just make a fortune in a muffled voice, anyway, no matter what happens in Mingfeng County, the Zhen family can be transcendent, but if the dragon king is really angry, the Zhen family will definitely not mind selling the dragon king and kicking the Shi Yi away.
With the participation of the Zhen family, on the same day, the Dragon King was furious and blamed the Shi family, and the statement that Mingfeng County would not rain in the future intensified.
No one dared to beat him, and he couldn't beat him, but Shi Yi had already felt the alienation and disgust of the high-level leaders of Mingfeng County, and this kind of environment made him quite uncomfortable, just a few days later, without anyone notifying him, Mingfeng County announced that martial law had been lifted, which let Shi know that the influence of the Shi family in Mingfeng County had fallen to the lowest point.
