Huiji County is near the sea, close to the sea, the villagers here rely on fishing for a living, farming is a sideline, at the same time this area is also special, is the intersection of Huiji County and Shangyu County in SY County, the river estuary, but in this era, this kind of transportation is not valued.

When the hurricane hit, the villagers were even more threatened, and many people lost their lives, and only recently went out to sea to fish, and for the first few days they relied on dried fish to survive...... This is also the area that Wang Ningzhi focuses on, because there are no mountains and there is not much wood, so the people of the county here can only wait for the timber to be transported from other places.

There are traditional farmhouses here, but because of the sparse population, they will not build houses according to the water like later generations, but there are more thatched houses, and there are many family laborers, so they will spend some time to build a more solid house - wooden house, compared to thatched house, the wooden house is much stronger in terms of resistance to blows, Wang Ningzhi's plan this time is also to choose a simple and livable one from the traditional wooden house building as a template, build a unified house, and draw the land to live, merge the villages with few people, and make it easy to manage.

Among the people who transported timber, there was Qingshan from Shangyu County, and the men practiced a shift system, which was divided into two batches in total, and changed every half day, tending to the farmland and cutting down, transporting timber, and building houses rotated with each other, due to the accelerated progress, there was enough wood, and only the next accelerated time was left to build houses.

Because it is very important, Qingshan is the person in charge of transporting timber this time, and the fishing village here is a merger of three small villages, due to the natural disaster, the loss is somewhat large, and many people died, not many people, and now the three villages together, it is not big.

Jumping off the ox cart, Aoyama looked ahead, and several brand new wooden houses had appeared in the planned area, and the rest were still under construction, but there was no one to build the houses.

He was greeted by an old village chief, very old, with a slumped body, rough skin, with the characteristic swarthy of the seaside people, walking slowly on crutches, as if he saw Qingshan's doubts, and said: "The villagers are worshipping Lord Fujun, this is already a custom on our side, speaking of which, if there is no decree from the king, I am afraid that it will be ......."

As he spoke, the old village chief choked up, and his body trembled sharply.

Qingshan hurriedly supported him, motioned to the people who came with him to wait here, and then walked in the direction of the old village chief to the back of the row of houses, the mud on the ground was also renovated, a little damp, fortunately it was flat, it was a specially selected good place, even if the river tide was high, it would not affect this side, and under the sun, it would dry out in a while.

The villagers are behind the house, there is a large open space, about divided into two groups of people, a group of people kneel in the open space, forming a semi-encircled circle, in the middle there is a wooden statue carved from wood, Qingshan has seen Wang Ningzhi, so look over, find that this wooden statue is vaguely similar to Wang Ningzhi; The other group of people were wearing Hu clothes, there were more of them, and they were relatively fierce, but at this time, they tried their best to restrain their fierce energy, and most of their eyes converged on the wooden statue of Wang Ningzhi in the middle, and they did not whisper, but looked there quietly.

Aoyama was strange, but didn't ask much.

Regarding the worship of Wang Ningzhi, there are also some people on their own side, and some people even deify it, thinking that Wang Ningzhi is a messenger sent down by God, specifically to save the suffering, most of these rumors are not credible, and I don't know who it is, but it is widely spread, even if some people don't believe it, when it comes to Wang Ningzhi, they will maintain a respect.

This kind of respect has not even been felt by Wang Biaozhi and Xu Shen, who took office.

The old village chief waved his hand, signaled Qingshan to let go, and let him stand here, and then, the old village chief trembled slightly, standing next to the wooden statue, and there was a Taoist on the other side, seeing the old village chief coming, the two of them both held the wooden staff high, and did not speak, after a while, the wooden staff fell to the ground heavily, making two clicks.

"The sky blames, the hurricane hits, the country is not peaceful, the people are not happy, the sky descends to the king, and the name is condensed...... Kowtow ...... "These words are said by the Taoist, the general idea is relatively simple, even Qingshan can understand, about to say that heaven and earth regard all things as dogs, demons and demons, Wang Ningzhi is the incarnation of immortals, come to subdue demons and eliminate demons, etc., but the Taoist voice who spoke was sincere, and the tone was frustrated, and the whole sentence was finished, which made people tearful and empathetic, so when the last sentence of "kowtow" was said, everyone, including the crowd of people in hukou and Qingshan, who were watching next to them, subconsciously knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

"Prostrate ......" prostrate again.

"Prostrate again!"

Three bows and nine bows are great gifts, which are only applicable to emperors, ancestors and gods on weekdays, and now Wang Ningzhi's wooden statue is given such a meaning, even the green mountains who kneel down do not feel abrupt...... If it weren't for Wang Ningzhi's measures, his wife and children would have died in the storm.

After the three bows and nine bows, the residents gathered here gradually dispersed and returned to their respective posts to begin their work, while Aoyama communicated with the three village chiefs and the Taoist to discuss the handover of timber, and soon called a large group of people over to unload the timber from the ox cart one by one.

On the way, Qingshan has been paying attention to the group of people in Hu clothes, and feels strange, how can there be so many strangers in this place, not last time, and look at the appearance of these people, but they are dressed similarly to Hu people, but they are actually Han people.

While unloading the car, a small boat approached from a distance, and it did not take long for it to come to the shore, and the group of people in beard and clothes greeted them, a total of four people, three men and one woman, and these people would and then beckoned to the old village chief, and without saying a word, they got on the big boat together...... Sea.

"Aoyama, Aoyama?"

Hearing someone call him, Qingshan immediately came to his senses, saw that it was the old village chief, stood in front of him, and said slowly: "Why have you been paying attention to them, is there any problem?" ”

"Who are those?" Qingshan's honest face had a hint of embarrassment, and after asking this sentence, he immediately changed his words and said, "Did I ask something that shouldn't be asked, old village chief, don't care, I'm just stunned for a while." ”

The old village chief smiled, didn't seem to care, and said: "I don't know who they are, they have been here for two days, and they are sent by the Langya Wang clan, the people sent by the Fujun, so naturally there is no problem...... Okay, now that you're done, it's time for you to go back. ”

Looking back, I looked at the empty ox cart and the wooden statue still standing in the clearing.

After a while, Qingshan replied with hindsight: "Hey, I know! (To be continued.) )
