Chapter 45 for Rain

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the emperor's power fell, the eunuchs were autocratic, and the family controlled the government, which caused the people of the world to live in poverty.

In the three years since Lu Bao came to Guanghe, the people of the world have begun to have a large number of refugees, and even the people's livelihood is a foregone conclusion.

"There are Taiping Road everywhere, and Zhang Jiao's layout is not small, but unfortunately, it is not easy for these ordinary people to succeed." Lu Bao looked at the people around him with yellow faces and thin muscles, and he was also very uncomfortable.

Not to mention that these people were fooled into rebellion by Zhang Jiao's magic stick, as they looked like they might hang up at any time, anyone who saw it would be unbearable, but under natural and man-made disasters, these people had to go out to find life.

Obviously, at this time, it is impossible to have any vitality wherever you go, because there is so much land in the world, and most of it is in the hands of the big families, how can you care about these ordinary people?

"Brothers, the Heavenly Master of Taiping Dao is here......" I don't know who shouted, and the fleeing team suddenly fell silent.

"This corner has now begun to gather the hearts of the people, which can be regarded as far-sighted." Lu Bao shook his head slightly and said.

"This world is really different, this Taiping Dao people can actually draw talismans to cure diseases, and the effect is not bad, although the patient has not fully recovered, but he also has some skills." Lu Bao looked at the Heavenly Master of Taiping Dao and said in surprise.

"What is this, if the great sage and good teacher come, it must be a bowl of rune water to cure all diseases!" A man beside Lu Bao said.

"That's right, I haven't seen a great sage or a good teacher until now, if only I could see it with my own eyes one day." Another villager said.

"In the past few years, natural disasters have continued, and we people can't survive!" A verbal shake of the head said.

Lu Bao didn't stay long, he walked to the next place, basically like this along the way, there were refugees everywhere, it seemed that this year was a year of great disaster, otherwise, it would be impossible for these people to flee from home.

"It looks like this year is a big drought!" After walking leisurely for two days, I found that there was a drought within 100 miles.

"Forget it, let's rain a little bit, although it may not have much effect, but at least it can give people a little hope!" Lu Bao shook his head and said.

The next moment, the Confucian shirt on Lu Bao's body turned into a Taoist robe, and there was an extra floating dust in his hand, and then he walked towards the county seat.

"Where did the Taoist come from?" Jun Cheng looked at Lu Bao, who was sitting there, and said.

"I'm here to solve your doubts!" Lu Bao said with a chuckle.

"Oh? I don't know how to solve the puzzle? Jun Cheng looked at Lu Bao with a smile and said.

"Poor Dao believes that there is nothing that cannot be solved by a rain, and if there is, then there will be another one!" Lu Bao said with a chuckle.

"The Taoist means that the drought can be solved!" Jun Cheng sat up straight.

The drought is the main concern of the county guard, but there is still no suitable solution, and the county guard is overwhelmed every day, and if there is a rain, it will be great.

"The drought is due to the fact that there has been no rain for three months in a row, and the best way to solve it is to rain, and of course, it would be better if it could solve the problem of displaced people." Lu Bao nodded and said.

"Can the Taoist ask for a rain?" Jun Cheng automatically ignored Lu Bao's words behind him, and only hoped that it would rain.

"It's still very simple to ask for rain, if it's just rain to relieve the heat, you just need to do this." As he spoke, Lu Bao picked up the teacup on the desk and gently leaned down to let the tea flow out.

"Wow!" There was a rush of rain outside.

"This, this is, the immortal means!" Jun Cheng said as he looked at the rain that suddenly fell outside.

"It's just a small measure, at most it can make the ground wet, but it's not enough to solve the drought." Lu Bao shook his head slightly and said.

"Please Dao Chief, for the sake of the people of the world, save the people of Dongjun!" Jun Cheng stood up and saluted.

"Since Poor Dao is here today, naturally he will not stand idly by, but if I want to ask for rain, I still have some conditions, as long as Jun Cheng can agree, it is naturally okay to ask for rain." Lu Bao said unhurriedly.

"The Taoist chief begged for rain to consume mana, and afterwards, I naturally prepared a generous gift to thank the Taoist for his kindness." Jun Cheng saluted and said.

Lu Bao was blinded by Jun Cheng at once, how could this have anything to do with the big gift? Jun Cheng's brain hole is big enough.

"The poor road needs to build a high platform, nine zhang high, nine zhang wide, divided into nine layers, each layer minus one zhang, no one layer of nine steps, a total of eighty-one steps." Lu Bao said.

"This ......" Jun Cheng was a little embarrassed, this matter is too big, if it is quietly begging for rain, even if it doesn't work, it's nothing, and others won't say anything in private, but if you really do what Lu Bao said, if you succeed, then it's okay to say, everyone is happy, but if you can't succeed in asking for rain, then it's a shame, and the image of the government will be gone.

"I know what Jun Cheng is worried about, but Jun Cheng must understand that the risks and benefits are mutual, and since Poor Dao dares to come here, he is naturally somewhat sure." Lu Bao said very confidently.

Although Lu Bao has not done this kind of thing much, he has some experience, and the rules of this world are very interesting, Lu Bao's cultivation has almost become a supreme existence, and it is natural to travel clouds and rain.

"Okay, I can support you here, but this matter is not a trivial matter, and you need to report it to the county keeper before making a decision." Jun Cheng said.

"No problem, I just hope you can hurry up, time waits for no one, if it is delayed, I'm afraid I won't be able to harvest any food this year." Lu Bao said.

"Okay, I'll go find the county guard." Saying that, Jun Cheng didn't care about Lu Bao and trotted away.

Seeing Jun Cheng's performance, Lu Bao smiled lightly, he knew that the two officials of the East County were not bad, at least there were still some people in their hearts, otherwise, Lu Bao wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson.

The officials of Dongjun also moved quickly, and it only took a few days to build a high platform, although it was a bit hasty, but it was not simple.

Of course, the construction of this high platform also attracted a lot of onlookers, and these people were very curious about what this high platform was for.

In order to solve the drought, the county guard specially invited the master to ask for rain, and this high platform was built for the sake of asking for rain, but it enveloped the people's hearts, which also made the county guard secretly proud for a long time.
