Yang Pan hated others to say half of the word, but the old Taoist refused to continue, and waited until dawn to continue on his way. Along the way, Yang Pan was paying attention to the movements of the mountains and forests, but unfortunately except for the evil things he saw at night, he didn't see any ghosts and evil things blocking the way, and it was already noon when he arrived at the so-called mountain village.

Yang Pan had never seen such a scene in his life, the land was cracked, the trees withered, and the trees around the entire mountain village were dead, it was a purgatory on earth. There is no one in the village, and the lonely atmosphere makes people feel like they are stepping into a dead land. "Hey, could it be that everyone here is dying of thirst?"

Yang Pan sneakily bumped into the old road, the old road did not say anything and went directly into the village, he hurriedly followed, and found a dry well in the center of the village, the wind swept up the dead branches and leaves on the ground and fell around, obviously this well has been abandoned for a long time. "Could it be that this well is a water drawing array?" Yang Pan was shocked, if this was the case, wouldn't the people in the village have died of thirst a long time ago?

The old Taoist was still silent, and walked forward to an old tree, this old locust tree does not know how many years it has grown, it has not died in such a harsh environment, there are tender branches extending out to exude the vitality of life, perhaps this is the only color that can be seen in the whole village, the strange thing is that there are porcelain jars under each shoot, and there is water in front of it. It's amazing!" ”

Lao Dao stretched out his finger, and saw that the young shoots growing in the dry bark were dripping, although not much, but it was also water, if you put it in a bowl for another night, it should be full, and there are so many young shoots on the tree. Yang Pan finally understood what the old Taoist meant when the water drawing array failed, if it was an intact water drawing array, these shoots should be like a faucet and constantly seeping out, but now it is just a drop of water flowing out, and it is a bit hanging to supply the whole village.

"Daoist Miaoyu, you're finally here. The closed door in the distance opened, and an old man who was in the middle of his life walked out tremblingly with the support of the young man, who was about fifteen or sixteen years old, very thin, and whose eyes were very bright except that he looked unkempt. Seeing this, the old Taoist hurriedly greeted him and made a confession, "Old man, I am ashamed of the poor Dao, I am too late." ”

"Xiaoxian, go and tell everyone, just say that the chief is coming, we are saved. The old man's cloudy eyes were full of hope, the young man called Xiaoxian ran to call people in a sonorous manner, and soon there were people from every house, and his body and face were dirty, I don't know how many days I hadn't washed my face and bathed, and more than 100 people surrounded Yang Pan and the old Taoist in the middle and asked if they had found any way to let them leave the village. "Dao Chief, let's just say it, we really can't stand it, if there is no water source, we would rather rush out and break the net with those monster fish!" "Yes, what is the difference between dying in the mouth of the monster and the violent corpse in this village, there may be hope for a fight!"

The villagers talked a lot, and the old Taoist signaled everyone to be quiet, and then dragged the stunned Yang Pan to his side and introduced: "This little Taoist friend can walk in the clouds and rain, as long as he does it, he can solve everyone's crisis." "Really?" "He looks so young, he doesn't look like a man with a good career." ”

Yang Pan was stupid in his heart, sticking to the old Taoist, he was really young. "Don't worry, Poor Dao has seen this Taoist friend cast magic and rain to benefit all sentient beings, and this time he is willing to come to save everyone. "Hey, the more this old guy talks, the more outrageous it becomes, he only said that he would follow up to see if it was true or not, when he said that it was really going to rain, or that sentence, without the order of the dragon king, he would be punished by heaven if he made rain without the order of the dragon king, and it was not a joke to be wiped out at that time.

Yang Pan didn't speak, the villagers looked at each other and didn't know what the situation was, Lao Dao frowned and dragged Yang Pan aside and whispered: "Xiaoyou, you also saw that the poor road didn't lie to you, if you don't cast spells and rain again, the people here really can't live." Yang Pan looked back at the poor villagers staring at him, he was not a hard-hearted person, if he could help, he would definitely help, but this violation of the law would ruin his own life, and the great dedication of sacrificing himself for others like the Buddha cutting meat and feeding the eagle really can't be done.

"You make me think again. Lao Dao sighed lightly, "Little friend, God let you learn the art of clouds and rain is to benefit the people of Li, and now is at the juncture of need......" He didn't continue, but he also saw that Yang Pan was very embarrassed, so he could only turn around and tell those villagers that Yang Pan needed time. "Young man, if you can save everyone, I will kneel down for you with this old bone. The old man trembled and knelt down in front of Yang Pan, Yang Pan hurriedly supported him and said bitterly: "Uncle, it's not that I refuse to save it, it's just that I ...... I have a problem. ”

"What difficulty can be compared to hundreds of human lives?" Xiaoxian suddenly said coldly, Yang Pan was stunned, and he didn't know how to answer, so he could only smile bitterly. The villagers who were still happy dispersed, Yang Pan was stunned and looked at the lonely and sad backs, and his heart was extremely sad, and he began to complain about why the Dragon King chose him in the world, and he did not give him the right to travel the peak of rain without authorization.

"Dad, what is the world like beyond the mountain? A cute little girl looked up and asked, and the man said silently: "There are monsters outside the mountain, and they will eat people." ”

The others are Yang Pan, he was angry at the moment, the thunder flashed in his fist and tore the black fog that was blocked, and when he chased into the dense forest, he heard Yutong's scream, and when he looked around, he saw that the evil thing ripped off her arm and put it in his mouth to eat with relish, and the rattling chewing sound made Yang Pan almost faint, looking at the broken little body, his eyes were instantly bloodshot, "Die, die!" Yang Pan burst into tears and completely lost his mind, Lei Guangqing grabbed the evil neck and smashed its head into powder with a punch, the black mist spread to all sides, and the sound of the evil came and went, and the dense white figure surrounded him in a small area.

He didn't look at it, the bloody Yutong made him shiver with cold, especially the laceration wound burned his eyes and pierced his soul, holding Yutong in his arms and screaming, "Why, why ......" "Why" "Why" The evil spirits pounced together, he protected the breathy Yutong with one hand, and the other arm was infused with thunder like a divine weapon shining in the world, destroying and destroying all evil spirits. A punch swept and smashed five or six evil spirits into ashes, but after these disappeared, new evil spirits filled up, the ghosts were endless, and the dense white half bowl of soup floated with the roots and grass buds were clear and not shiny, he tried to clamp the roots of the tree at the entrance and couldn't chew it at all, let alone swallow it, put the bowl and chopsticks and asked the old man if he usually ate these things, the old man smiled bitterly and said no.

Yang Pan was a little puzzled by what he meant, and the old man sighed: "This is what Xiaoxian went to dig on the periphery when he took advantage of the poisonous sun, and the monsters didn't dare to come out at that time." "Who said that he didn't dare to come out, wasn't the big strong brother dragged away?" Xiaoxian sneered coldly, Yang Pan was stunned on the spot, can he lose his life if he goes to pick up some grassroots?" Yang Pan understood that they had lived like this for so many years, and it was really ...... to risk their lives to get something that could not be called food at all

The old man shook his head and left, Xiaoxian didn't move with the bowl, and when Yang Pan looked at him, he pouted and said two words, "Coward." "This little guy! Xiaoxian left, and when he entered the house, he slammed the door shut, obviously angry that Yang Pan would not save him when he saw death.
