Chapter 597: Asking for Rain

Nian Fu said: "Yes, continue to ......"

Xiao Tianshu said: "After a while, the private school was dismissed, and a group of children were scared away when they saw Li Xuan like this. Only a few bold people shouted around Li Xuan: "It's called Huazi, rotten legs." After screaming a few times, Li Xuancai let out a long yawn, which sounded like thunder, and scared away several children, and finally only a teenage boy was left standing in front of him.

Li Xuan saw that it was a naΓ―ve child standing in front of him, so he said, "What's your name?" Did you wake me up just now? ”

When a child asks himself, he is not afraid. Instead of answering his question first, he asked him instead, "Who are you and how do you sleep here?" ”

Li Xuan saw the child ask him, and smiled again: "Who am I?" You can't guess, but I can guess your name, can you believe it? ”

"I don't believe you can guess my name, you lie." The child hurriedly waved his hand and replied. Li Xuan said: "Don't believe it? Then we bet. ”

The child said, "Bet on it, bet on it, and if you can't guess, give me a horse to ride." Li Xuan said: "Okay, if I can guess your name, you will give me this rotten leg, how about it?" The child nodded and replied, "Okay!" "Because he thought, this kidnapper must be a foreigner, how can he know my last name. The child was afraid that he would repay the debt, and he also hooked up with him, "Whoever deceives people, who is a puppy." ”

In fact, how did he know that the crutch sitting in front of him was a god. Li Xuan knew that Wang Qin would become a local official in his hometown, Li Xuan pointed to the child and said, "Your name is Wang Qin, and you are ten years old this year, right?" ”

Wang Qin's eyes widened suddenly, hey, how did he really know his name. Alas, this time he can lose, and he wants to tease his horrible rotten legs. But he had already sworn in advance that he had pulled the hook, Wang Qin was a child who talked and counted, and he didn't want to repay the debt, so he leaned over and turned over Li's rotten legs. Xide Tie Gui Li smiled, held Wang Qin's little head and said, "You are an honest child. Wang Qin originally wanted to take one or two bites on Tie Guan Li's lap, and the bet would be over. Who knows, the taste he got was sweet, like honey and sugar, so the more he t, the more flavorful he became, and he actually dried up all the pus and blood under Tie Guan Li's entire leg before he got up. "Okay, thank you, Wang Qin, we'll meet later." After saying that, Tie Guan Li got up and limped away

Originally, Wang Qin studied in a private school, and his grades were not good, and he was the second-to-last among more than a dozen classmates. After Tian got rid of Tie Gui Li's rotten legs, he made great progress in his studies, and in less than half a year, he changed from the original penultimate to the first.

The gentleman was very surprised, and one day, he left Wang Qin behind and asked him what was the matter, so Wang Qin told him the story of his encounter with an old man who was on crutches, and at the end he said, "After Tian got the rotten leg of the crutch, my memory is very good, so I can remember the books that Mr. taught me." ”

"Oh", the gentleman asked, "what kind of person is the old man you meet?" Wang Qin also described them to the teacher one by one. The gentleman is an old man, and he has naturally seen a lot of legends about the gods. He thought that Wang Qin must have met an immortal, but the secret of heaven must not be leaked, he did not ask this matter further, nor did he tell others, but just worked harder than before to teach Wang Qin, he thought that Wang Qin must be a promising person in the future.

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Wang Qin is already fifteen years old. In the autumn examination of this year, he won the second list of jinshi in one fell swoop, and was appointed by the imperial court as the prefect of Chongqing Prefecture in Sichuan Province. Glory Township. At the beginning of the second year, Wang Qin took office.

Baguo (Chongqing) is fertile for thousands of miles, and the people are abundant, and it is called the country of abundance. After Wang Qin arrived, he was ambitious, and wanted to take advantage of his young age to do something good for the people, but who knew that things backfired, and Chongqing Mansion, which has always been smooth and rainy, and abundant grains, suffered a severe drought for three consecutive years after Wang Qin took office. In this place of Chongqing, there are hungry prisoners everywhere, and the people are miserable. In this regard, some hooligans and ruffians seized the opportunity to make trouble and took advantage of the fire to rob, and the whole of Chongqing became a miasma. There was no way, Wang Qin had no choice but to lead the civil and military officials to build an altar and worship the temple, asking for help from the sky to rain.

A month later, a tall earthen altar was built. According to the instructions of the sorcerer Taoist, Wang Qin fasted and bathed for 7749 days, and then went to the altar to pray for rain.

A day or two passed, and the sky was still cloudless. The angry hungry people, instigated by some people, said that Wang Qin was a monster and that he had done some evil in his previous life, so that since he took office, he has brought disaster to Chongqing.

Therefore, when Wang Qin went to the altar to pray, he brought bundles of dry firewood and piled them under the altar, preparing to set fire to him and burn him alive when Wang Qin begged that it would not rain, so as to relieve the hatred in his heart.

Wang Qin, who was standing on the altar, looked at the dry firewood everywhere under the altar, and understood eight or nine points in his heart. He knew that if it really didn't rain, his fate would be over. He couldn't help but lament, knowing that he had nothing to do with the drought, how could he explain it to the people, and how could the people believe him.

Alas, today we have come to the point where there is no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the earth. Thinking like this, he unconsciously complained about the old man he met when he was a child, and he thought that if he hadn't met him back then, bet with him on his legs, and make himself smart and studious, he wouldn't be able to become an official in the Jinshi, and it would not be his turn to encounter this trouble, and he began to hate the old man.

It's a heaven-shattering road. Just as Wang Qin was in trouble, he suddenly saw a dark cloud floating in the sky. When you get closer, it's within reach. Wang Qin was deflated again, what is the use of this small piece of cloud top, Chongqing is thousands of miles away. Just as he was lamenting and lamenting, the clouds disappeared, and an old man stood in front of him.

Ah, isn't this the old man I saw when I was a child? I saw that the old man was wearing hadn't changed his clothes yet. He was about to speak, but the old man spoke first: "Wang Qin, why, you don't recognize me." ”

Wang Qin said with a sigh: "It's all a good thing you did, otherwise, how could I have such trouble farming at home." There was a complaining tone in his tone. Tie Guan Li knew what Wang Qin had encountered, but he wanted him to say it himself, so he asked again: "What difficulties are you encountering, tell me about it, maybe I can help you, ah, haha!" ”

So far, Wang Qin has no choice, thinking to himself: telling him is the same thing as not telling him, so he told him that since he took office, after three years of drought in Chongqing, he passed through the macrocosm and built an altar to ask for rain, and the people wanted to burn him. When it was over, he closed his eyes and began to lament again.

Who knew that after hearing this, Tie Guan Li laughed out loud and said, "Wang Qin, why didn't you tell me earlier, what kind of difficult thing is this, isn't it just a drought?" I'll give you seven days and eight nights of heavy rain, so why worry so much. ”

Wang Qin glanced at the old man and thought: What kind of person are you, dare to say such big things, it is as easy as guessing my name if it rains. Therefore, he said: "Immortal Chief, who are you the great god, can you really help me with this?" ”

Tie Guan Li had already seen through his thoughts, so he said, "Wang Qin, don't you believe that I can call the wind and rain? Then let's bet again, the conditions, I won, you give me back the t-leg, how about it? If you lose, you will be given a horse to ride. ”
