Elder Shi nodded and said, "Although the products of my Nanzhao country are not rich, the scenery is rare in the world. You will not be disappointed on this trip. ”

He paused, and then said: "It's a long road, it's better to go on the road together and have a companion." ”

After speaking, he casually glanced at Zhao Ling'er again.

"That's what the poor road means"

Cao Yi said.

Capturing Elder Shi's eyes, Cao Yi smiled slightly.

Zhao Ling'er, who was already thin and dark, and her ragged clothes still attracted Elder Shi's attention, and Cao Yi was not surprised at all.

Some people's temperament is natural, just like fireflies in the dark night, cranes that stand out from the crowd, no matter how you hide them, you can't hide them.

Elder Shi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Dao Chief, I don't know where this girl next to you is from?" What is your last name, and can you tell us? ”

I still can't hold back!

Cao Yi's heart moved, and in an instant, the seals on Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, Liu Jinyuan, and Lin Yueru opened.

The clothes have also changed from the previous clothes.

Four handsome men and beauties showed up at once.

The entire lobby also seemed to brighten up a little at this moment.

"You?"

Elder Shi's eyes widened, staring at Zhao Ling'er deadly.

It's as if you want to see through Zhao Ling'er.

"She's the princess you didn't pick up on this trip." Cao Yi said with a smile.

Elder Shi hurriedly took out a black object from his arms, which should be a token and walked over.

Zhao Ling'er raised her hand, and the light in her palm flickered a few times, and an identical object appeared.

Confirm that it is correct.

Elder Shi put away his belongings, bent over and arched his hand, and said very respectfully, "Shi Gonghu, meet Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”

His men also saluted, and their movements were as if they had been rehearsed many times.

No one knelt, and Cao Yi was not surprised. Kneeling at every turn, calling himself a slave, is something that only the Manchu Qing Dynasty can do. In these years, the ministers gave up their hands to the emperor and princess.

Push back a few decades, and those with slightly higher status are sitting in the court.

"You don't have to be polite"

It was inconvenient for Zhao Ling'er to support Li Xiaoyao, so she just said a word.

Elder Shi didn't straighten up, he confessed: "The minister is incompetent, he is one step late, and the princess suffers and is guilty of death." ”

Elder Shi's words aroused Zhao Ling'er's sadness.

The little friends on Xianling Island who played with her until they grew up and were like sisters all died.

"It's all the dog thief who worships the moon, and it has nothing to do with you."

Zhao Ling'er gritted her teeth and said hatefully.

Hearing Zhao Ling'er call the moon worship with the word dog thief, Elder Shi, who hated the moon worship, was as comfortable as drinking ice water on a dog day, and straightened up.

"It's not too early, let's hit the road"

Cao Yi said.

After paying the money, the group left the inn.

As you walk along the official road, you will encounter more and more victims.

The Nanzhao Kingdom is roughly equivalent to the south of Caiyun in later generations, and drought is common, and Cao Yi is not surprised.

"Did my Nanzhao Kingdom offend the heavens?"

Elder Shi's face was full of sorrow.

He was an important minister of the Nanzhao Kingdom, and knew better than anyone what drought meant.

"How many years does a drought occur?"

Cao Yi asked.

Elder Shi thought for a moment and said, "After the great flood twenty years ago, there was a drought once every four years, then it became three years, and in the last few years, there has been a drought every year. ”

First there is regularity, then there is no regularity, no matter how you look at it, it looks like it has been manipulated by something.

In an instant, Cao Yi thought of the water monster hidden behind the moon worship.

"In the past few years, the rebel son of the moon worshipped, and also cast spells, and it rained a few times, but in the past few years, the drought has become more and more severe, but he has frequently retreated and gone out, each time for a few months, I suspect that he deliberately avoided it." Elder Shi guessed.

Moon worship avoidance, drought! Water monsters!

Stringing these words together, Cao Yi is basically certain that the drought is related to the Water Demon Beast.

"Master, can you spread the rain?"

Zhao Ling'er on the side suddenly asked.

"Yes"

Cao Yi replied in the affirmative.

One of the Five Emperors' Great Demon Powers, the Black Emperor Water Emperor Fist, can raise clouds and spread rain.

"Great"

Zhao Ling'er showed joy.

"However," Cao Yi took a turn, "the drought in your Nanzhao Kingdom is not an ordinary drought. Xingyun spread rain, and he could be saved for a while, but he couldn't save a lifetime. ”

Zhao Ling'er frowned and said, "Dao Chief, you mean that the drought is man-made."

"Probably not people"

Cao Yi said.

Zhao Ling'er stared at her beautiful and charming eyes and said, "It's a water monster."

Cao Yi nodded.

Zhao Ling'er's expression became more solemn than ever, since she could remember, she had heard people say how powerful the water monster was.

It can be said that he grew up in the shadow of the water monster.

Back then, it was as strong as her mother who sacrificed her life, and it was just to seal the water monster.

"Dao Chief, are you sure you can deal with the Water Demon Beast?"

She asked.

"I don't know"

After all, he had never seen a water monster, so Cao Yi could only give a vague answer.

Zhao Ling'er didn't speak again.

The group continued to move forward, and met more and more people, these people went to the royal capital of Nanzhao Kingdom in groups, wanting to let the Moon Worship Sect Master spread clouds and rain and alleviate the drought.

The group is not ordinary people, and the speed is very fast. It didn't take long to come to Erhai Lake, near the capital of King Nanzhao.

From a distance, I saw a group of people standing beside the Erhai Lake, where the water level had dropped and I didn't know how much, and I was looking forward to it.

Judging from their muffled discussions, it was clear that they were waiting for the Lunatic Master.

"That rebel said not long ago that the earth is round, and he went out to verify it himself, and you said it was ridiculous."

Elder Shi sneered.

It's ridiculous that you, the earth is really round.

Cao Yixin said.

"Since ancient times, the sky is round and the earth is round, how can the earth be round."

Li Xiaoyao spoke up.

"Even I, who don't study, know that the sky is round and the earth is round, and this person is a fool."

Lin Yueru said.

Cao Yi: "......"

This bunch of ignorant guys.

"Ding"

A crisp sound that only Cao Yi could hear sounded.

Cao Yi listened quietly.

"Reiterate your next mission and preach in the country of Nanzhao."

The emotionless voice of the system sounded.

Cao Yi hummed in his heart in response.

After a while, a white figure appeared on the vast Erhai Sea.

"Moon Worship"

Cao Yi recognized the Moon Worship Sect Master at a glance.

I have to say that the Moon Worship Sect Master is very fan, dressed in chic white, with a tranquil expression, coming from the wind, like a fairy among the gods.

"Moon Worship"

Zhao Ling'er gritted her teeth.

Moon worship is his great enemy, first killing her mother, and then killing the people on Faerie Island.

Cao Yi pressed his hand on Zhao Ling'er's shoulder.

The latter's tense body relaxed little by little.

After a while, moon worship appeared in the sight of ordinary people.

"Look, the all-powerful leader is back"

"The Master is back, we are saved"

"Master"

"Master"

……

The sound was just a discussion at first, then it turned into cheers.

The voice rose higher and higher, reaching into the sky.
