，

I didn't understand what the other party was trying to explain to me, and it was better to be straightforward than to beat around the bush.

I crackled and typed the next line on the keyboard:

"What the hell are you trying to tell me? Can you just go straight? If you don't want to tell me, don't beat around the bush with me. ”

The other party was silent for a while, and then sent another message:

"Young people are young people, and they can't hold their breath at all. Well, then I'll tell you that the floating town you are talking about should be the same place as I know of, and the whole of Sadako is built entirely on a body of water.

The air there is good, and it is a scene of spring all year round, especially in the early years, when the mountains and rivers are green, and living there is simply an ultimate enjoyment.

That small town on the water, there is an old legend.

It is said that thousands of years ago, there was a small country that fell, and when the enemy came to attack them, the king went out of the city and surrendered in order not to let the people suffer. The enemy did not embarrass him, and made him an official, but he was given a small place of poverty and hardship.

And that place is what you call this town. Although the king did not have the ambition of an emperor, he was a kind and good man, and when he came to that small place to take office, he found that the people there were few and miserable, and there was no one to cultivate the land.

Everyone is depressed, not enterprising, and living in a state of confusion all day long.

The king who had been destroyed was puzzled, and after inquiry, he learned that it had been plagued by floods all year round, and that it was almost impossible to receive a house, and even if it was to build a house, it would definitely be flooded and collapsed.

Every year, many people die or starve to death because of the floods. So most of the people moved away, and those who remained had nowhere to go, so they simply lived on the pitiful harvest they received every year, and did not intend to build houses.

It's just a simple shack built with thatch, and when the water is distributed, I simply live in a higher place, so that I don't have to think about anything for a long time, as long as I can live, I will live one day at a time, anyway, maybe one day I will either starve to death or be washed away by the flood.

The monarch was sad and personally took people around that place and observed the terrain. Finally, he thought of a good solution.

That is, digging out a lot of rivers, the river is very narrow, and there is no need for a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, as long as the people are willing, which can not only completely solve the problem of flooding, but also improve the natural environment here.

At first, no one paid any attention to what he did, but the soldiers he brought with him would follow him to dig the river. In the first year, due to the limited manpower and the limited amount of river channels to be excavated, the effect was not very obvious.

But by the third year, a small number of bookmakers were no longer threatened by the floods. For the first time, the people there had a harvest and did not go hungry again.

In the fourth year, more than half of the people spontaneously joined in the excavation of the river. As more and more rivers are dug up and criss-crossed, the annual floods can no longer threaten the survival of the people.

The king began to study how to build a sturdy house, and he found that it was most appropriate to build it on the edge of the river, so that it could not occupy the little farmland that was already scarce, and it could really control the flooding.

The rivers were made of stones, strong enough to be feared that they would collapse, and because the channels were narrow and not fast, they were not fast enough to cause a serious impact on any part of the river.

As long as a thick foundation is laid when building a house, the house will not collapse even if it is hundreds of years old.

In this way, he began to lead the people to build houses, and the material was bluestone quarried from the mountains, that is, it was strong and economical materials, and after a long time, it became a prosperous water town. ”

It's such a long message, and I don't know what it has to do with what I'm going through.

I was a little tired of watching it, so I wanted to simply turn off the computer and stop wasting time boring with a person who didn't seem to be in good spirits.

Just when I was about to shut down the phone, the other party sent a message again:

It is for this reason that all the people think that a king has been sent by Heaven to save them, and they have great respect for him.

But in this way, it also harmed the king who had fallen to the country, and the king at that time thought that he was plotting against him, so he wanted to kill him to prevent future troubles. The people quit at that time, and they all wanted to rebel with the king.

However, the king jumped into the river that he had built with his own hands in the middle of the night, and although the water was not deep, it was very easy for him to drown himself.

People knew that he did not want the people who had managed to survive in peace to suffer the pain of displacement again, so he sacrificed himself.

From that time on, all the people began to spontaneously adopt the king's name as their surname, just to commemorate the man who brought them a happy life.

Gradually, the people of that water city all unified their surnames ---- Shen!

As time passed, this incident was gradually forgotten by people, and this legend gradually disappeared. The people there only know that the surname of the ancestor is Shen, but they don't know why the surname is Shen.

I know that three hundred years ago, there was a girl who was selected by the emperor at that time and entered the palace as a concubine, and because of her relationship, her hometown was also favored by the emperor after she gave birth to a dragon son for the emperor.

All the people there are related to each other, and they are all inextricably linked. Through the relationship of that girl, the originally small water town has been further expanded, and outsiders have begun to move in, and no longer all people have the surname Shen.

But the Shen family, which was originally a big family, has continued. In those long days, they have formed their own complete and independent rules of life, which will not be broken by outsiders at all.

It is precisely for this reason that they have been severely hit, although they have not been destroyed because of this, but the original big family has also been weakened to a certain extent.

It was at this time that a man appeared.

It was this person who changed the fate of all people surnamed Shen.

He was a Taoist priest, and no one knew what his name was, let alone what kind of relationship he had with the person surnamed Shen.

But since the appearance of that Taoist priest, no one dared to provoke anyone surnamed Shen, and all families surnamed Shen began to close themselves, not much contact with the outside world, and did not use force, but they were not bullied.
