Abnormalities in animals

And what makes Jiachen strange is that the things that he ignored when he was busy are now idle, and it has become extraordinarily strange when he thinks about it carefully. Since the first day of entering the city, I have not seen any other animals except flies, mosquitoes and red-eyed rats that I had seen three days earlier, for example, live pigs, dogs, chickens and sheep, and the most common poultry.

Maybe they also took advantage of the thick smoke to flee, but where could they flee. Fleeing to a neighboring county is the best choice, but I haven't heard any news that the number of poultry in the neighboring county has skyrocketed. Besides, the dog has been tamed by the people of Bingzhou for more than a thousand years, and it is used for war, hunting, and guarding the house. Dogs are the most loyal to their owners, but why don't you see them? When clearing the rubble, a lot of poultry was indeed dug up, but is that the total number of poultry in Bingzhou?

A series of questions lingered in Jiachen's mind.

At night, the lamp. The wolf that Jiachen was holding did not fall until the ink contained in the pen dried up. He is hesitating about the matter of not knowing the whereabouts of the animals today, whether to write it in the chapter, if you don't write it, it may be the dereliction of duty of the courtiers, and the purpose of sending you here is to let you inspect and rectify the revival of Bingzhou. But if it is written, it may add more trouble to the winged clouds.

Write it truthfully, and it will make people who don't know anything reverie, make up some nonsense such as evil spirits, hauntings, and so on, and become their after-dinner conversation. How could a courtier believe in the fairies and ghosts that only the villagers would believe.

Chickens and dogs are super spiritual animals, if they hide in a corner of Bingzhou for refuge, it's fine, if they really escape from Bingzhou, it doesn't mean that Bingzhou is a fierce place, and there will be a bloody disaster soon.

After thinking about it again, I still don't plan to write it. Only the personnel and the construction of the houses reported in the past were written......

After three months of bloody and sweaty day and night work, the city of Bingzhou has returned to its usual order, but there are not many people moving around on the streets, except for the grain and rice stores and grocery stores, and the other shops are closed. Everyone wore plain clothes, and some women wore a white paper flower on their heads, in order to mourn the deceased. Because there are no bones, there are no clothes for the dead, so everything is simple. It's the form, not the mood. Everyone had sadness on their faces, and some even had tears in the corners of their eyes. Only the broken gaps in the walls and the hearts of the people record the catastrophe.

Jiachen invited the witch temple of Dafeng Mountain to preside, and the temple in the east of the city dedicated to the five gods of witch gods. For the deceased's superlife, it has been held for three days and three nights. The congregants of the martyred family knelt around the campfire, bowed their heads and prayed until the tears dried up, and they figured it out - the dead are gone, and the living are self-reliant.

The temple dedicated to the five gods of the witch god is the witch temple, and the witch god religion is the belief of the Yiyun country and even the West Niu Hezhou. In the midst of this tragic earthquake, only this witch temple was not damaged, isn't it proof of the existence of gods? Jiachen has been here for many days, and he often comes here to pay respects, but every time he can't get to the temple, because there are many refugees who worship there.

Wenchen Jiachen just looked at the five gods and the five divine beasts under them from a distance.

In the next three days, Emperor Ming issued a document.

On the first day, a memorial message was delivered.

The next day was a tribute to Jiachen and other officials, as well as officials from neighboring counties, wealthy businessmen and good people.

On the third day, the imperial court ordered that the military states be exempted from military service taxes for fifty years.

Although it is not understandable why the documents that can be sent at one time should be issued in three days. Maybe Emperor Ming was afraid that the people of Bingzhou would be full of life and death, and he couldn't accept such good news at once. No matter how you guess it, these three things are enough to make people's hearts move. The last one, in particular, will definitely stimulate the development of the local economy. Some homeless people, people who are avoiding military service, businessmen who want to be exempt from paying taxes. will all converge in this land and bring the prosperity of the past to today's Bingzhou.

There are few clouds, the sky is blue, and at the same time it appears high. The wind ruffled the lake, it was a little cold, and autumn came.

In autumn, many people are busy in the field for the autumn harvest, although a meteorite has destroyed almost all the crops, but the carrots, sweet potatoes, and potatoes that grow in the ground should still be edible. Although the grain distributed by the imperial court has not yet been eaten, it is enough to survive the winter, but the land cannot be barren, and after these crops are raised, they began to plant in autumn.

As expected, many people from other places came to Bingzhou, some of whom reclaimed wasteland and lived in the outer city, some of whom were engaged in business and bought and rented houses in the inner city, some of whom were craftsmen who worked for iron, made clothes, and practiced medicine, and some who sold livestock, which made it convenient for the families of those who farmed the land. Cattle were bought, and mules were used to help them plant in the fall. Everything is so harmonious.

It wasn't until the people who cultivated in the outer city of Xishuizawa reported the strange things to the officials of the government office.

Mizusawa to the west of the castle is where the meteorite fell. There are few people there. So when the rescue came, no one went there. Only Meng Feilong had sent someone there to inspect the mountains of the beacon flames.

The settlers said that many animal carcasses were found there, including pigs and cows, chickens and ducks, and the carcasses of a colorful tiger were found, all with their heads facing a towering mountain, and their carcasses were piled up at the foot of the peak.

Meng Feilong and Guishan have led the troops to fight for so many years, and they have never seen anything evil, but they have never seen such an evil thing. So the two of them, with the three guards who were exploring the terrain at that time, came to the crater in a hurry. Sure enough, as the guards said, the mud stirred up by the water was as high as five zhang, forming a high embankment, and the situation was steep, and the wind and sun for days made them one and indestructible.

As the pioneer said, the pit was covered with animal bones, but it had been dead for an unknown number of years, and only skin and bones remained. A slight touch will fall apart. And the head was on the crater, as if it was some kind of witchcraft ritual. There should be a lot of water in the crater, because it is constantly emitting water vapor outward, lingering at the mouth of the cave, not increasing or decreasing.

Katsura wanted to climb up with his bare hands to see what was in the hole. Maybe there's something really hidden. But he didn't climb a foot high, and he slid down. Meng Feilong laughed at Lede, such a steep slope, even if you use the cloud claw to hook it, even if you can hook it, absolutely no one can throw the rope so high, five zhang! five zhang and seven stories high. Guishan simply stopped climbing, leaned on the embankment, and chatted with Meng Feilong about family life. The guards stood in the distance with interest, leading their horses.

Three horses gnawed on the withering grass, and the setting sun was about to set, staining the smoke that had not returned. The two of them were originally fellow villagers who joined the army together, and they were both ruthless characters who could kill the enemy and spared no risk. At the beginning, they were all evenly divided, and they made many meritorious achievements, and they rose step by step. In the end, he became a general, but Guishan was unkempt, upright, and unpleasant in front of his colleagues, so he was demoted to Kuai County as a commander.

They were both in their fifties, and if it weren't for the crater, they probably wouldn't have seen each other again.

The bright moon was in the sky, the number of stars was few, and the two of them were in a hurry at night, and they drank bitterly in the city. Regarding today's strange things, Meng Feilong already had a plan in his heart. This is not surprising.

In fact, today's strange things are the beginning of strange things in the future.
