Chapter 935: Fu Yang's Doubts
But in this short moment, Fu Yang only felt that he had a flower in front of him. Then the vision changed, and I felt like I was being stuffed into a desperately spinning drum washing machine, top-heavy......
"I ...... Damn! Could it be that some kind of spell is left behind the memories of the past or the sight of the gods? Why do people want to play this? Just play this, can you not start with such blue and thin shiitake mushrooms every time! ”
Fu Yang burst into tears in his heart.
Then, when the vision finally stabilized and was no longer blurry and dizzy. He found himself standing in front of a huge construction site!
This is a hot construction site, and thousands of **** sturdy men are working in an extremely wide damp depression under the supervision of the government.
They're building sluices!
Taking advantage of the dry season of the Wusong River, the marginal area of this estuary has initially dried up, so we must seize the time.
It was the first time for Fu Yang to see the scene of ancient working people building magnificent buildings, and he was stunned by this scene full of primitive power and beauty!
He could see that the bottom of the entire huge sluice had been dug and that the people were now working hard to drive wooden stakes to strengthen the earth. And the specially treated wooden stakes are being erected at a speed visible to the naked eye......
The weather was very hot and the air waves were twisted.
The scorching sun and the intense work made the complexion of these people show a flush. From time to time, someone fainted from heat stroke, and was immediately carried away by Lang Zhong, and if the rest of the people were a little slack, what awaited them was a merciless whipping.
At the edge of the sluice trough stood a group of court officials in robes.
The first person was the deputy envoy of Zhedong Province who had just been appointed by the imperial court two months ago, named Ren Renfa.
Local officials heard that he made his fortune as a water envoy and was quite proficient in water conservancy management, so he led the construction of the sluice gates at the mouth of the Wusong River.
And this newcomer, the deputy envoy of Zhedong Province, has already taken on the name of a cool official. As soon as he arrived at Songjiang Mansion (the ancient name of Shanghai), he immediately started the dredging of the Wusong River and the construction of the sluice, recruited tens of thousands of people, and worked tirelessly every day. Five people are already exhausted to death!
He himself hadn't been home on the construction site for days, and the heat had made him irritable and irritable. Although sweat had soaked through his majestic official uniform, he remained motionless, like a sculpture. His eyes were as sharp as those of a falcon, overlooking the construction of the sluice below.
No one knows why he was so anxious to complete the sluice gate in less than half a year - in the past, this kind of project was more than three years!
And what is even more strange is that the imperial court also seems to approve of what he did. Even the Zhongshu Province of Dadu issued three orders in a row, telling him to complete the project before the fifth day of the fifth month of May.
The sculpture-like deputy envoy finally moved.
He turned around and waved his hand at the officials, "Let's all go and rest for a while." ”
The officials, who were already about to hold on, were pardoned, and one by one they hurriedly saluted and ran back to the pergola erected by their respective servants to rest.
Seeing that there was no one around, the personal old servant leaned over very worriedly: "My lord, your body ...... Let's go back to the house and rest first. ”
The resolute look on the face of the slender and tall deputy envoy disappeared, full of bitterness: "Ah Fu, the Yulan Festival is coming soon."
They don't know the true purpose of this sluice, don't you know? If you can't finish it on time, it's a catastrophe. ”
Ah Fu's face showed a look of fear, his eyes widened, his breathing was heavy, and it took a long time before he spoke with difficulty: "My lord, this, that, we ...... Is that thing really that scary? ”
"It's just going to be scarier than you think." The face of the deputy envoy was once again filled with that resolute and serious expression. He looked at the sea along the rolling Wusong River, and the salty and wet sea breeze blew with an inexplicable fear.
Fu Yang was like a non-existent ghost, witnessing all this, his heart was shocked!
"This ...... Is this the scene of the Yuan Dynasty, when the imperial court ordered the people to be requisitioned to build this sluice? It's spectacular. It's just that I don't seem to see any evil spells. It's all normal construction. The charms on those wooden stakes are the orthodox Taoist charms to ward off evil spirits. And this Ren Renfa, according to the legend of the Spiritual Realm, he should be a Taoist priest who surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty and did not discipline the Song Dynasty. But now it seems that he is a good official. ”
A series of doubts flashed through his mind.
I feel that the scene I see in front of me seems to be different from some of the theories that have been circulating in the supernatural world......
"Let's see!"
Fu Yang thought in his heart.
Then he took a few steps forward and approached Ren Renfa.
He saw that the face of this cultivator who was also an official and a Taoist had an expression of concern for the country and the people, which did not seem to be a fake. It's really like he's afraid of something terrifying!
Fu Yang followed Ren Renfa's gaze and looked at the Wusong River sluice that was being built.
The gate of the huge sluice gate, which was comparable to the city gate, was almost eighty percent completed, and all the wooden stakes engraved with Taoist charms had been driven into the mud and sand. Densely packed, truly spectacular.
"This sluice...... What kind of earth-shattering secrets are hidden? ”
Fu Yang muttered silently to himself in his heart.
Soon, the vision changed.
The sun rises and the moon sinks, and for a moment I don't know how long it will be a night.
The night sky was clear without a single cloud. A full moon hung high in the night, radiating thousands of silver radiances, like a jade plate.
In ancient times, hundreds of years ago, there was no industrial pollution or smog. So the visibility was so good that the huge moon was almost on the sparkling offshore sea in the distance.
The huge sluice gate next to it should have been preliminarily completed. There are only a few tiny details left to be done.
Fu Yang saw Ren Renfa again.
He seemed to have lost a lot of weight, his cheekbones were prominent, and his eye sockets were sunken.
The old servant of the center was still behind him, looking at him with worried eyes.
Ren Renfa spoke: "Huh...... Finally, the sluice gate was basically completed before the fifth day of the fifth month of May. In another five days, when the Dao Masters of Longhu Mountain have completely completed the formation seal of the mirage, this piece of Songjiang Mansion will be considered safe. ”
Dragon Tiger Mountain?!
Fu Yang's pupils suddenly constricted.
Could it be that this formation was actually completed with the help of the people of Longhu Mountain? Not only does it have nothing to do with the evil formation, but it also represents absolute Taoist orthodoxy.
It shows that when this sluice was just built, it should represent the right way.
But why, when the site was excavated later, was the stake covered with broken spells?
Inside, the water is very deep! (1st Update)
