When Shangguan Xi woke up, he was woken up by the sound of the vast rain, the sound of water, and some noisy human voices.

She quickly sat up from the bed, and before she could put on her shoes, she heard a knock on the door, "Miss, are you awake?" ”

It's the voice of an ugly.

Shangguan Xi didn't even care about wearing shoes, so he came to the door barefoot and pulled the door open.

Ah Chou's eyes widened, and there was some disbelief inside, "There is a violent storm outside, I heard that the Chujiang dam broke upstream, and the flood flooded thousands of hectares of fertile land, and a flash flood broke out downstream, and countless people were damaged. We have high ground here, and people with low ground have already taken refuge here. ”

Shangguan Xi was stunned for a moment, and was about to follow Ah Chou out, but just stepped out of the threshold, he was blocked by Ah Chou, "Miss, shoes!" ”

Shangguan Xi looked down and saw that he was still barefoot, hurriedly went back to put on his socks and shoes, and hurriedly stepped out of the door.

There were a lot of people gathered under the inn, some holding children, some holding salutes, and their bodies and the ground were wet, or mixed with mud, and they were embarrassed.

It was raining heavily, and the sky was so dark that I couldn't even tell the hour.

"Where's Su Bai?" Shangguan Xi asked.

Ah Chou pointed to the innermost wing room on the first floor, and the two went together.

The door to Subai's room was open, and Thirteen and the Boat Boss were sitting inside.

The arrogant disdain on the face of the ship boss was gone, and Thirteen was also serious.

Shangguan Xi knocked on the door frame and stepped in.

Su Bai sat calmly, his eyes were very calm.

Shangguan Xi knelt down opposite him, "If it's really as you said, now ......"

"Wait for the rain to stop, the Chujiang Dam has burst, the flash flood has also erupted, and in the face of the force of nature, no matter who it is, the power is insignificant. Disasters have already taken their ...... Please put away all your valuables and jewelry, and do not leave them exposed. The more calamities arise, the more incalculable the hearts of the people become. Su Bai said in a very calm tone.

The boat boss nodded repeatedly, and now looked at the young man's eyes, full of reverence, "How did Lang Jun predict the weather?" Knowing that there is a heavy rain, even the Chujiang Dam breach in the upstream and the flash flood in the downstream can be predicted, Lang Jun is really a capable person! ”

The young man waved his hand and said, "It's not Su Bai's prediction, it's Master's words, Master asked me to keep everyone." Master said that if you can keep it, it is fate, and if you can't keep it, it is also fate. ”

The young man's voice just fell. Everyone's hearts overflowed with a sense of joy.

Shangguan Xi even sighed that he was fortunate to believe in his intuition and believed in this young man, if not......

"Dare to ask the Venerable Master's name?" Shangguan Xi arched his hand and said.

Su Bai also arched his hand, "Family teacher Su Pu." ”

"Can Lang Jun introduce us and others?" Shangguan Xi said politely.

People who can observe the heavens and predict disasters will certainly not be ordinary people, if they can invite such people to Shangguan's house as guests, it will be of great benefit to think of coming to Shangguan's house!

The young man lowered his head and didn't think about it for a long time, nodded and said, "I'll take you there when the rain stops, the master lives a little far." ”

Shangguan Xi and the others thanked him, and asked him when the rain would stop.

The young man lowered his eyes and said, "The rain will stop tonight, and we will be on the road tomorrow morning." ”

In the evening, the rain was much lighter.

After dinner, the rain stopped.

The boat boss Lian Lian even sighed with people that the young man was really a god. Others ridiculed him the day before and said that he was an ignorant yellow-mouthed child, and today he is so respected. The boss of the boat laughed, and didn't care much.

When I got up early the next morning, sure enough, the wind and rain stopped, and the road was still very muddy, but Su Bai seemed to be in a hurry to get on the road.

After breakfast, they got into the carriage.

The damage to Fengting Town was not very serious, only the area near the river was washed away by the flood, and the people along the river were displaced, and they took their children to the higher ground to the north.

But when I heard about the humanity that came in, the downstream was seriously affected. Fertile land was flooded, houses were washed away, and thousands of families were displaced.

The number of people who perished in the great waters is innumerable.

The carriage was bumpy for more than two hours, and the road was muddy, which was really difficult to walk.

After the lunch was over, Su Bai asked everyone to stop.

Everyone followed him, got out of the carriage, and looked up at the dense peach forest, hungry in their stomachs, and their hearts were even heavier.

They escaped the catastrophe because of the dissuasion of the young man, but there were many people who were damaged in this natural disaster.

"Master lives in the depths of the peach orchard, and Master doesn't like to be disturbed." After Su Bai finished speaking, he bowed to Shangguan Xi.

Shangguan Xi frowned and looked at the people who came with her, and nodded: "Thirteen, Ah Chou will go with me, you all stay here!" ”

The boss of the ship is the old department of the Shangguan family, and he is a little uneasy when he hears this.

Su Bai smiled apologetically at him, "Please bear with me." ”

He frowned and didn't say much. In terms of martial arts, he is naturally inferior to Thirteen and Ah Chou, even if he follows, he is not as good as the two of them.

Shangguan Xi took Thirteen and Ah Chou, and hiked into the peach forest with Su Bai.

The peach leaves kept sweeping over the cheeks, making people's faces tickle.

The green peaches may have been destroyed by the torrential rain and fell to the ground.

The further it stretches out, the bigger the peach tree becomes.

In the depths of the peach forest, a double-storey bamboo house stands faintly.

"Master, I'm back!" Su Bai shouted outside the courtyard.

But no one in the bamboo hut responded.

Shangguan Xi couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart.

Thirteen and Ugly both tensed their nerves, their hands on top of their weapons, ready to deal with sudden changes.

Su Bai pushed open the courtyard door, which was only as high as his chest.

The three of them followed him into the courtyard.

"You're waiting here!" After Su Bai finished speaking, he walked up to the second floor along the ladder made of bamboo, bowed respectfully at the door and said, "Master, you are right, they really followed the apprentice to find it!" ”

"Let them come up." A deep voice came from the bamboo house.

Judging by the voice, it should be a man in his thirties and forties.

Listening to Su Bai's words, did he bring them here on purpose?

Thirteen and Ah Chou couldn't help but become more and more nervous, and protected Shangguan Xi behind him, cautiously.

Su Bai turned around, looked at them condescendingly, and said, "Master, please come up!" ”

Thirteen and Ah Chou escorted Shangguan Xi step by step towards the bamboo house on the second floor.

Su Bai stood at the door and bowed down to please.

Shangguan Xi came to the door of the second floor.

The door was open, and a bamboo-blue gauze curtain hung inside.

The shadow is sufficient, and there is a half-lying figure behind the gauze curtain.

Shangguan Xi's footsteps stopped at the door, and he arched his hand and said: "A certain little lady of the Shangguan family, meet the master!" ”

There was a sullen laugh in the room, "A certain Su Pu is not a master, but he knows a little thaumaturgy, Shangguan little lady, please come in!" ”

Shangguan Xi raised his feet and stepped into the bamboo house.

Thirteen and Ugly followed.

Su Bai entered the door, lifted the bamboo-colored curtain, and knelt down beside the figure inside, "How is Master?" ”

Su Pu shook his head and didn't speak.

Su Bai stepped aside and knelt down and sat down, and stopped talking.

"The little lady Shangguan has always wanted to ask, how can I know about the torrential rain breaking the embankment and the flash flood?" Su Pu's tone is flat, but the sound is like the wind passing through the bamboo forest, and the rustle is very textured, which makes people feel calm and comfortable when they hear the words, "A little thaumaturgy, it is not enough, you can observe the sky, and it is not very remarkable." can be observed, cannot be changed, and is really a useless person. ”

The last sentence "useless person", he said something self-deprecating.

Shangguan Xi frowned slightly, "The master lives deep in this world, and he naturally can't change his view." But if the master is willing to help the people of the world, shouldn't he go out of this place of seclusion? If the master can serve the temple, he can observe and change! ”

The bamboo-blue light yarn was blown by the wind.

The figure lying on the bamboo couch inside was not very clear.

Shangguan Xi squinted her eyes, wanting to get a glimpse of the master's true face, but the wind stopped, and the light veil fell, cutting off her sight.

"I had no intention of doing this, but God would not follow anyone's wishes! Alas......" Su Pu sighed, "let the disciples keep you and lead you here, and if you can come now, it means that there is such a will in the dark." ”

Shangguan Xi didn't know what kind of dumb riddle he was playing, so he had to listen patiently.

"This time, the Chu River dam burst and the flash flood caused a lot of damage to the lower reaches of the Chu River, and the imperial court must attach great importance to this matter! This matter will also affect King Ning's future, and even King Jing will be affected! Su Pu said slowly.

Shangguan Xi was stunned when he heard this, "King Ning? King Jing? ”

Su Pu smiled, "Oh, by the way, the Shangguan family is optimistic about King Ning, in this matter, although the Shangguan family will not be punished by the saint, it will not be beneficial." Prince...... Maybe you will take advantage of this incident to gain momentum in one fell swoop! ”

When Shangguan Xi heard this, he was shocked.

Who is this person who lives in such a remote mountain forest, but knows everything about the affairs of the court?

"How do you know so well?" Shangguan Xi still questioned.

Two chuckles came from the bamboo-colored light veil, "Actually, the little lady Shangguan already believes it, doesn't she?" ”

Shangguan Xi frowned and was silent.

Su Pu's voice was solemn, "If the little lady of Shangguan can recommend Su to King Jing, Su may really be able to observe it and change it!" ”

"You mean, you're willing to serve King Ning?" Shangguan Xi paused, "Then why don't you see King Ning directly, what does it mean to recommend King Jing?" ”

Su Pu did not speak.

The young man Su Bai sighed, "I heard that Princess Jing's medical skills are excellent and her techniques are exquisite, but the people misreported it?" ”

When Shangguan Xi heard this, he immediately said: "My sister's medical skills are naturally good, if it is misinformation, how can Renjitang be widely recognized in Dazhou?" ”

At this time, a fresh breeze blows in from the window, bringing the smell of the wet air after a burst of rain and the quiet bamboo fragrance of the bamboo house.

The bamboo-blue light yarn is held up by the wind.

Shangguan Xi, who was staring wide-eyed, was stunned.

The man lying on the bamboo couch was picturesque, and he looked only about thirty years old, but he could stand upright, and a pair of hands hanging on the edge of the bamboo couch were even more shocking......
