Chapter 69: Qingling Lake (3)

The Taoist priest was obviously stunned for a moment, and then, frowning slightly, the depths of his eyes seemed to have a more solemn meaning, and his thoughts drifted, as if he had traveled back to Qingling Lake more than three hundred years ago.

Initially, that is, more than 300 years ago, Qingling Lake, the lake and mountains, the smoke and waves are vast, it is a famous lake in the capital, as we all know, Qingling Lake is an abyss, and is located in the dragon vein, however, occasionally one day there is a sudden rainstorm, the water of the lake overflows, and the abyss flows downstream, at this time, the rumors have not yet risen.

Coincidentally, the emperor at that time at the same time suddenly fell ill, the imperial doctors in the palace were helpless, the emperor in the folk to search for thousands of Langzhong and Jianghu warlocks, all of them were back to the sky and lack of skills, the emperor posted the emperor list to announce the world, among the people, no one dared to uncover the emperor list at dawn, until the appearance of a Taoist priest.

The Taoist priest was framed by thieves, and the beloved woman was also murdered, in retaliation, the Taoist priest released rumors in the streets, it was because of the sudden rainstorm, which woke up the dragon vein where Qingling Lake was located, the emperor gave birth to a vicious disease, and the rumors became more and more intense. The emperor was very faithful, and after knowing this, he could not sit idly by and ask the Taoist priest, who took the opportunity to tell the emperor that he needed to sacrifice 100 men and 100 women in Qingling Lake, so that the emperor's evil disease could be cured and his life would be prolonged.

And the person who pays tribute to the lake is determined by him, and the choice is the family that framed him and mutilated his beloved.

Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes, that family has the tendency to call for wind and rain in Beijing, and has already gotten the news, and fled, leaving only nearly a hundred distant relatives, he originally wanted to choose among the commoners, but how could the emperor let it go and give up? It was up to him to choose slowly, so he sent people to break into the streets and alleys of the city, and searched for more than 100 people.

Originally, the Taoist priest thought that he would never have the opportunity to see his beloved woman again in this life, but who knew that among the two hundred people who wanted to pay tribute to the lake, there was his beloved woman, and after seeing her, he suddenly realized that he actually came up with such a tragic idea because of his anger.

The Taoist priest also regretted it, even if he told the whole story, the emperor might not believe him, and he would punish him for the crime of bullying the king.

When the Taoist priest delayed the practice, at this time, Qingling Lake had continued to rain for five days, under the washing of the heavy rain, the Qingling Lake trough had long been unable to support, and then the edge collapsed, the lake water poured down to the abyss, the rainstorm stopped, and Qingling Lake did not become a lake, therefore, the memorial could not be carried out, but the emperor's evil disease has not improved.

The Taoist priest saw that Qingling Lake was about to dry up, and told the emperor on a whim that Qingling Lake was full of water, and the men and women who sacrificed would show their sincerity, and now, as long as Qingling Lake was exhausted, the emperor's illness could be cured.

Therefore, the emperor sent people to dig day and night to fill up Qingling Lake, during which the Taoist priest also found a way to heal the evil disease, and on the day of completion, the lake dried up, and the Qingling Lake channel was also repaired, and the emperor's evil disease has been cured.

And after this incident, the Taoist priest had no intention of yearning for the red world, and followed the beloved woman to the mountains and forests, so far, the rumors of Qingling Lake have also been passed down by the people.

As a result, Qingling Lake has been dried up for more than 300 years. This is the rumor that is prevalent among Taoists. The Taoist priest looked at the sky and water in front of him, and the sparkling Qingling Lake sighed in admiration.

"I see, it's really a rumor, it's good that there is no water in Qingling Lake, and there are rumors in the streets and alleys of the capital once there is water, even if more than 300 years have passed." Gao Yuncheng said helplessly.

Gao Yuncheng five people tacitly looked at each other, they couldn't imagine that yesterday's incident had also set off such a big storm, if it weren't for the dragon that swept the water into the Qingling Lake, I was afraid that the Qingling Lake would have been exhausted, and such a wonderful scene would not have been seen.

As far as the eye can see, the vast lake surface undulates and rises, under a refreshing breeze, the sound of the water is 'whoosh, whoosh', the lake surface ripples and sparkles, and the reflection on the lake surface is also the weeping willows on the stone embankment swaying, dancing, and the whole lake is under the shade of the jungle trees, showing the emerald green.

"Ahem, the rumors that are circulating in Qingling Lake, I told you that I know about it, so now, I can go, right?" The Taoist priest asked cautiously.

"Where are you going? You can't go anywhere until things are resolved. Eh, didn't you just say you ran away? Phoenix said meaningfully.

"That's... Naturally not, I just want to see why this Qingling Lake is full, and now, I admit that the contemptible way is too shallow, and I really can't see the strange place of this Qingling Lake. The Taoist priest's humble whisper can give people a feeling of flowing and proud.

Suddenly, someone shouted in front of the city gate on the outskirts: "The emperor has an order, when the Qingling Lake matter has not yet been resolved, no one can go out of the city gate, dare to break into the city gate, and if you don't respect the will, you will be killed." Give me all back. ”

In front of the city gate, the people's complaints came and went, followed by silence.

"This, you all heard this, no one can come up with a way, if you go in, it will be a death, since you are all out, then you should also flee quickly, after all, it is out of town, there is no need to die for the so-called rumors, you say, what I said is right or not. Let's just run away, how about it? The Taoist priest also pretended to smile.

"If you can't go, you can't go, don't talk nonsense." Shenlong also scolded the Taoist priest, and when he thought that this matter had caused a storm in Beijing, he also felt uncomfortable.

When the Taoist priest heard the momentum in these words, he also obediently pursed his mouth and closed his mouth, silent, with a panicked look on his face.

"Long Yan, don't kill him, he still needs to solve the matter of Qingling Lake." Gao Yuncheng stared at the Taoist priest thoughtfully.

Phoenix, Long Yan, Qilin, Chang Shou and the Taoist priest also looked at Gao Yuncheng curiously, not knowing what he meant.

"Didn't this emperor believe in the words of the Taoist priest? Let's make a plan and let him go to the palace to meet the emperor. Gao Yuncheng explained with a sly smile.

"That's a good idea." Phoenix, Long Yan, Qilin, and Changshou are on the same track.

But the Taoist priest also looked flustered, and stumbled and said, "Don't, don't, the small Taoist is shallow, and it really can't help." ”

"Just leave this matter to them, we are just borrowing your name, the Tao is shallow, but it is a Taoist priest, we will follow you into the palace." Gao Yuncheng explained.

"That, that's not good, the small ones are shallow, but what skills do you have? What are you going to do when you enter the palace? If you can't solve the matter of Qingling Lake, you will also implicate me in your suffering, and I won't go. When the Taoist priest heard that entering the palace was also like an abyss.

"What do we do, do you want to see it? I'm afraid that it will scare you to tremble and you won't be able to come back to your senses. Phoenix smiled slyly.

"I don't believe it." The Taoist priest replied.

"Do you believe in God?"

"I believe it." Of course, the Taoist priest believed in God, but it was only a luxury, like a misty cloud in nothingness.

The four of Phoenix, Long Yan, Qilin, and Changshou are also unpredictable, flashing in place, until they are transformed back and forth into Phoenix, Divine Dragon, Qilin, and Divine Turtle, just for a moment.

"Is this enough?" Phoenix's voice just fell.

Seeing this scene, the Taoist priest was also frightened, trembled, unstable, and sat on the ground.

The six phoenixes flashed brightly and came to the corners of the streets and alleys outside the city gate.

At this time, the noisy sound in the streets echoed in the ears of the Taoist priest, like a blow to the head, and he gradually came to his senses.
