Chapter 226: Corpse King! (Above)
Chu Daodao: "Master Li, I came here this time in the hope that you can open a warehouse and release grain and sell grain at a fair price." ”
When Li Dezhong heard this, he said: "The words of the Fourth Highness are indeed reasonable, but if this matter is not approved by Lord Shi, the lower officials will open the granary privately, and they are afraid that they will have to bear the responsibility, and it will be light to lose their official position." ”
When Chu He heard this, he said: "I traveled to Chengzhou as a messenger this time, and I have His Majesty's holy decree to handle disaster relief matters with full authority. So, you don't have to worry. If something really happens, I will naturally bear it. Master Li is an upright official and has always loved the people, so he must not let the affected people starve to death. ”
When Li Dezhong heard this, he immediately said: "Since His Highness said so, the lower officials will naturally obey the order." Early tomorrow morning, Xia Guan will open a warehouse to release grain. By the way, His Royal Highness has had dinner, and the lower official will let the chef in the house cook a few more dishes. ”
Chu He looked at the leftovers on the table and said, "Don't be extravagant and wasteful, let's eat together!" ”
……
Half an hour later, Chu He finished eating and was about to leave, before leaving, he stared at Li Dezhong and said, "Lord Li, I will come to you again tomorrow, I hope you can do a good job of disaster relief." ”
Li Dezhong said: "Your Highness, rest assured, Your Highness will definitely live up to His Highness's expectations!" ”
Immediately, Chu He's figure flashed, performed light skills, and quietly left the county guard's mansion.
At this time, Li Dezhong's wife said: "Master, didn't you say that you have to bear the responsibility for opening a warehouse and releasing grain without permission?" What if the four princes don't admit it in the future. ”
Li Dezhong scolded: "Shut up, what do you know as a woman." ”
The next morning, the sun was shining.
The guards of the county guard began to post notices, saying that the county guard office would open the regular closing position and sell grain at a flat price, with a limit of 10 buckets per person.
When the people of the county saw the notice, they immediately went home to get sacks, and then went to the rice shop of the government to buy rice.
The selling price is 5 Wen for Doumi, which is even lower than they imagined.
One by one, the people who bought the rice looked happy.
And the owners of the rice shops who hoarded Juqi changed color one after another and sent people to the county guard to protest.
However, the guards of the county guard stopped them.
At this time, near the rice shop, Chu He saw that the people had bought rice, and his face showed a satisfied look.
However, the food problem in one county is easy to solve, but it is different in one state, and in addition to food, water is also a problem.
If this drought problem is not solved, sooner or later there will be a shortage of water, and then the situation will be even worse than the shortage of food!
At this time, Chu He was not easy to show up because of the problems of the Ziyang Sect, and he was always tied.
Something has to be done to solve this problem!
In the evening, the county warden's house, the hall.
The county guard Li Dezhong's family was eating, and with a flash of brilliance, Chu He's figure suddenly appeared next to them.
Li Dezhong hurriedly clasped his fists and saluted: "See the Fourth Highness!" ”
His wife also saluted: "I have seen the Fourth Highness! ”
Chu He smiled and said: "No need to be polite, Master Li, you have done a good job this time, when the matter is done, I will ask my father for credit, and I will not treat you badly!" ”
Li Dequan said: "Thank you, Your Highness, but the disaster is serious, if the drought cannot be lifted, the grain stock that is often closed will not be able to support it for too long, and it must be solved as soon as possible." The severity of this year's drought is far greater than in previous years, it is too abnormal, it may be a zombie, and His Highness may be able to start from this aspect. ”
When Chu He heard this, he was thoughtful. There is also a legend in this world that the drought is out and the red land is thousands of miles. If there is a drought in a certain area, people will dig graves nearby and burn the corpses, commonly known as bone stakes.
If it is changed to a demonless plane, this is of course superstition.
But in this cultivation plane, zombies are very normal and evil things, not uncommon, and they do have the ability to cause drought.
Zombies are the most yin and evil creatures, and they will absorb yin energy in the earth, causing an imbalance between yin and yang, and the temperature in the vicinity will become higher and higher, resulting in a decrease in rainfall.
The deeper the zombie's cultivation, the greater the scope of its influence.
If it wants to affect the climate of a state, it must be the corpse king of the Jindan stage!
Could it really be that a corpse king was born?
Chu He thought for a while and said, "In that case, you can help me check, see that the disaster in that area is the most serious, I'll go check it out and see if there is really a corpse king making trouble!" ”
Li Dezhong said: "I have checked, the most serious is Dangyang County, of which the situation in Li County is the most serious, the fields are considered to be huge cracks in the dry, the wells in the county are dry, and the trees on the mountains are dead. The people couldn't survive, they all fled, and the entire county was empty, becoming a dead city! ”
When Chu He heard this, he nodded and said, "You have a heart!" ”
After he finished speaking, he took out a letter, which said that it was all his order to open the warehouse and release grain, which had nothing to do with the county guard Li Dezhong, and it was also stamped with his prince's seal.
Li Dezhong saw it, hugged his fists and said, "Thank you Your Highness for your understanding!" ”
Chu He smiled, then urged the invisibility true talisman and left incognito in an instant.
After a while, Li Dezhong looked at the place where the Chu River disappeared and sighed faintly.
……
At night, Dangyang County, Li County.
A cyan sword light fell from the sky and turned into a middle-aged man in a green shirt.
The middle-aged man in the green shirt was Chu He, and he used the mask of Senluo to change his appearance.
Chu He walked on the street and found that the entire county town was dilapidated and silent, and he searched with his spiritual sense, and did not find a single living person, but found a lot of ghosts.
At this time, he took out the Nether Orb.
At this time, the Netherworld Bead has been continuously refined by the Ghost King Lu Haitao, and it is already a second-order low-grade magic weapon, and the internal ghost realm space is also wider.
Immediately, a stream of black gas flew out from the Nether Bead and condensed a middle-aged man in black, who was Lu Haitao.
At this time, Lu Haitao's ghost body had condensed a lot, and his cultivation was comparable to the middle stage of the grandmaster.
Chu Daodao: "Mr. Lu, you explore the direction of the underground Xuanyin air flow for hundreds of miles nearby, and see that it is the center!" ”
"Yes, Your Highness!"
After Lu Haitao finished speaking, the ghost body dispersed into black qi and escaped into the ground.
Half an hour later, Lu Haitao returned to the ground and said, "Your Highness, the underground Xuanyin Qi of the nearby hundreds of miles is converging in the direction of the mountain in the north. ”
Chu He's figure flashed, and he flew to the city wall, looking at it, the mountain was not high, and it was unremarkable, but looking at the trend of this yin qi converging, I was afraid that there was really a corpse king born.
However, the night is the most cloudy, and it is not the best time to make a move.
Therefore, he found an uninhabited house to live in, set up a formation enchantment guard, and then began to cultivate.
However, in order to prevent being detected, Chu He only cultivated with spirit stones, and left powerful ghosts such as Lu Haitao and Shen Yanfei to be on guard nearby.
Now Shen Yanfei, the number one dog leg under Chu He, is already a peak ghost, and Guo Youliang and the ten battle spirits are also high-level ghosts, which is equivalent to a seventh-level cultivation of Qi training, and idle cultivation is not their opponent.
The next morning, the sun was shining.
A group of ghost cultivators returned to the Netherworld Pearl, and Chu He urged the flying sword, turning into a cyan sword light, and flew towards the low mountain in the south.
A moment later, the sword light fell, and Chu He appeared in a wood.
It's just that most of the trees and vegetation in this area are dead, and there is no sound of birds and insects, and there is a dead silence.
Chu He probed for a moment with his spiritual sense, and found a cave with a rather large entrance, so he couldn't help but use light skills and quickly rushed there.
