Chapter Twenty-Four: The River God Takes a Wife

The people of Qinyang Liuxiang robbed the Liu family of grain, and Chen Di was confident that these grains could solve their urgent needs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Liu Mingtian's hard-hoarded food was robbed of two-thirds, and he fell ill in a fit of rage. This is a great time for Chen Di.

You must know that there are four evils in Qinyang: bandits, Liu, Wu, and Wang. Among the four evils, Huang Batian, a bandit in Yandang Mountain, has become friends with him.

In fact, as long as you take some effort, you can definitely let Huang Batian take the brothers down the mountain to surrender. This harm is no longer considered a harm.

The Liu family is powerful in Qinyang County, and its roots are intertwined. It's almost impossible to get rid of it in one go.

Then cut off Liu Mingtian's left and right hands first, the witch sect leader Sun Daxian and the ruffian Wang Lang!

Chen Di made up his mind, and the next step was to think of a way. When he was meditating in the county hall, he didn't expect Sun Daxian of the Witch Sect to come to the door first!

Sun Daxian found Chen Di: "Chen County Order, there was a dream of the river god last night, saying that the river god lives at the bottom of the quicksand river, and is lonely every day, let us find a beautiful girl, send it into the river, marry him, and relieve the loneliness." ”

The quicksand river flows through Qinyang County and floods every few years. The three plagues of water, drought and locusts are the nightmare of the people of Qinyang.

Every year, the witch cult collects incense money from the people under the pretext of marrying the god of the quicksand river.

The people were ignorant, and every time they were fooled by this Sun Daxian to hand over the only money for him to do.

Chen Di thought about it for a while, and thought of the allusion of Ximen Leopard Zhiye.

"Yes, yes! The river god marries? This is the first time I've heard of this prefectural order, and it must be fun to think about it. Chen Di clapped his hands and laughed.

Sun Daxian said: "Since Chen County's order agrees, this Dao will immediately go to the people to search for a girl, and then choose an auspicious day for the zodiac to marry the river god." ”

Chen Di smiled: "Such a fun thing, when the time comes, you must call the county order, and the county order wants to join in the fun." ”

Sun Daxian smiled slightly: "The parents and officials of Qinyang County participated in the happy event of the river god, and they will be very happy to come to the river god." ”

Three days later, by the quicksand river.

A three-story altar has been erected. In the middle of the altar, stood Sun Daxian, the leader of the witch sect.

Next to the altar, there is a pergola, and Qinyang County ordered Chen Di to sit in the pergola.

Around the altar, thousands of onlookers gathered.

Every citizen who came to watch had to pay hundreds of dollars. Sun Daxian said that the people along the quicksand river who do not come to participate in the ceremony will definitely be flooded next year! And to participate in the ceremony, you have to pay a lot of incense money.

Sun Daxian was holding a peachwood sword, and the peachwood sword was holding a ghost drawing talisman, and there were words in his mouth.

After a while, Sun Daxian said, "Bring up the bride of the river god!" ”

Several members of the congregation carried a young woman dressed in red and covered with a red hijab to the altar.

Sun Daxian ordered: "The river god is above, and the bride is in the water!" ”

After saying that, several members of the sect were about to throw the young woman into the quicksand river.

Chen Di shouted in the pergola: "Slow! ”

Chen Di and Liang Erhei went to the altar one after the other.

Chen Di lifted the young woman's red hijab and carefully looked at the woman's appearance.

Then Chen Di said to Sun Daxian: "This woman is not beautiful!" If the river god sees this, he will be angry and angry? ”

Sun Daxian said: "Alas, let's Qinyang is a poor mountain and remote place, where can we find that woman who looks like a fairy?" ”

Chen Di pretended to be curious and asked, "By the way, Daxian, since you can be entrusted by the river god, if you enter the quicksand river, can you come up again?" ”

Sun Daxian said nonsense: "Ahem, this Dao has been cultivated for decades, not to mention the small quicksand river, even if it is a big river and sea, it is as easy to shuttle." ”

Chen Di laughed: "There is a beautiful maid Xiaohong in the county mansion, who is quite beautiful. The county order plans to sacrifice her and give her to the river god as a wife! I only ask the river god and his old man to bless Qinyang to be able to wind and rain smoothly next year. ”

Sun Daxian was overjoyed and said: "Chen County's heart of respecting God and loving the people is really heaven and earth!" ”

Chen Di suddenly shouted to the thousands of onlookers: "Fellow villagers, make a forensic for me." By the way, since you want to change the bride, today's ceremony can't be done! Sun Daxian can freely shuttle through the rivers and seas, and it is naturally no problem to enter the quicksand river! I asked Sun Daxian to go down to the quicksand river and tell the river god. Another day, the county commander will personally give him the maid Xiaohong at home! ”

Sun Daxian thought he had misheard and looked at Chen Di.

After a while, he reacted: "Chen County Order, no... Can't you。。。。。 ”

How could Chen Di allow that Sun Daxian to say anything more, he made a color for Liang Erhei.

Liang Er's black power was as strong as an ox, and he dragged Sun Daxian over, divided five by two, and pushed him from the altar to the quicksand river.

The quicksand river is turbulent, and in a moment, Sun Daxian sank to the bottom!

Thousands of onlookers were dumbfounded.

Chen Di suddenly foamed at the mouth, rolled on the ground, and rolled his eyes.

Thousands of people did not know why.

Suddenly, Chen Di started from the ground and made a gesture of putting his hands together.

"Yaa I am the god of quicksand and rivers! Sun Daxian of the witch sect has followed the will of this god for many years and won the heart of this god! This time he entered my quicksand river, I won't let him go! Let him serve me! Chen Di said in a hoarse voice.

Thousands of onlookers were skeptical, could it really be that the river god was on the body of the county magistrate?

Old Butler Yan was mixed in with the people at the moment, and said: "The county magistrate is the first in the second class of the new department, and that is Wenqu Xing!" He's a god in his own right! The river god is on the body of a fairy, which is reasonable. ”

The onlookers felt justified, and knelt down one after another to bow to Chen Di, the "river god" on his upper body.

Chen Di said again: "Since Sun Daxian has already accompanied me, there is no one with cultivation in the witch sect who can be a new sect leader!" The god commanded that the witchcraft be disbanded from now on! The people are not allowed to pay any more money for incense! ”

When all the people heard this, they prostrated their heads to accept the will of the river god.

Chen Di carefully studied the hydrology of the Liusha River. He wrote a book "Ming Dynasty Hydrological Examination" before, and knew that water control was better than sparse.

Chen Di pretended to be a ghost and ordered: "This god is the lord of the quicksand river, and recently found that the river is too muddy, polluting the palace of this god. This god entrusted Chen Di of Qinyang County to lead the people under his rule to dig channels! Drain the sewage! ”

Chen Di's move was intended to encourage the people to dig river canals and divert water from the sand river to irrigate farmland. In this way, the two disasters of flood and drought can be solved!

Liu Mingtian, the county magistrate, did not know this method of fighting against floods and droughts, but he had money in hand and hoarded grain, and he wished that Qinyang would suffer a disaster every year, so he could make a windfall by hoarding grain.

If you want to dig a canal, you need a lot of manpower. But where does the county government have the money to hire people to dig canals? If he forcibly recruits Ding, Chen Di will not be able to get over the hurdle in his heart. So Chen Di issued an order in the name of the river god. The people are ignorant, and when they receive the decree of God, they will naturally obey their orders.

Chen Di was on the altar, foaming at the mouth and twitching again, and then he opened his eyes: "Oh my God, what did this county 。。。。。 just now?" Unconscious? ”
