The ground fluctuated like waves.

The aura rises from the ground and spreads all over the wilderness.

The earth is like a bulging vessel, and when the blood flows through it, the skin will rise and fall slightly.

But such ups and downs are an unspeakable disaster for the creatures of the earth!

Gu Dan soared into the air.

As it rises, the earth is overlooked.

At the time of the first great change in heaven and earth, the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty was not greatly affected.

But this time, as far as the eye could see, violent bumps filled all directions, houses collapsed, roads collapsed, pedestrians panicked, and screams and roars filled all directions.

Even in the small courtyard of the Gu family, the house that had stood alone for more than a hundred years in the wind and rain finally couldn't support it and collapsed.

Even with the memories of the past, there is no place for them.

Gu Dan's face was dark and deep.

Martial arts itself is the process of cultivating itself, and building and protecting it is not the strong point of martial arts, but attacking is.

This kind of power involving the drastic changes in heaven and earth cannot be resisted even by the strength of the Jindan level.

It's easy to destroy a mountain, but it's not so easy to build a mountain.

The Tianshen eye was opened again, and the divine lines in Gu Dan's eyes flowed, and he had insight into all directions.

Disasters also loom in all directions.

The group of ordinary people who couldn't fly stayed on the ground at this time, like fish slapping on the shore by the waves, struggling weakly and weakly.

Roaring, angry yellow earth dragons wreak havoc, mountains shatter, farmland cracks, houses collapse.

Everything is like a desperate situation.

Gu Dan took a deep breath and returned to the ground from the heavenly dome.

In the keen perception, the concentration of spiritual energy between heaven and earth has become much stronger.

When the first time the heavens and the earth changed, the aura that suddenly appeared was still very weak, so weak that even if he took care of it, he could only barely absorb it, except for him, I am afraid that there was no second one who could detect it.

But at this time, with the drastic changes in heaven and earth, the concentration of aura is also greatly increasing.

The land that had been silent for thousands of years was like an awakened dragon, and when it roared, the power that had been buried in the past gradually seeped out.

The more drastic the change, the greater the impact.

But now is not the time to think about that.

Gu Dan lifted Shang up from the ground.

"Mr. Gu, is this?"

Shang didn't have time to pat the dust all over his body, but his eyes were full of indescribable helplessness.

In this great change of heaven and earth, ordinary people are like aquatic plants swaying in the wind, they can't make their own decisions at all, and no matter what achievements they have made, they are extremely powerless.

This is the bright and shining Tianwei, who can compete with it?

Even the small courtyard of the Gu family collapsed.

Gu Dan didn't speak, just pulled Shang and took off.

The blood and qi cut off the wind and waves, and went straight to the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty.

The predecessor of the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty was the longevity immortal palace of Emperor Zongming.

It is built on the basis of Shou Mountain.

The last time the world changed greatly, it was not affected too much.

But at this time, even the Shou Mountain had rocks splashed, and most of the palaces in the palace of the Xia Dynasty collapsed, and I don't know how many people were buried.

Fortunately, Emperor Qizhi has his own grandmaster by his side to protect him.

Although it is impossible for the grandmaster to resist the power of heaven and earth, it is naturally more than enough to protect himself, and there is no problem even in protecting himself.

When Gu Dan rushed to the palace of the Xia Dynasty with Shang, Emperor Qizhi had already been taken away from the palace and on the flat ground in the distance.

The crown that symbolizes imperial power rolls to the ground, and the bright dragon robe is mixed with the color of earth.

The emperor of the Xia Dynasty was also particularly embarrassed at this time.

Emperor Qizhi's eyes looked at the imperial palace that had been repaired several times after more than a hundred years, and then looked at the houses that had collapsed and the screaming people in the distance, and wanted to cry without tears.

What did I do wrong?

Why did I suffer such calamities again and again during my reign?

In his hands, the Xia Dynasty had not yet had time to reach an unprecedented peak, and the calamity was already approaching twice!

It wasn't until there was a smooth flow falling down in front of him that some of the unrelenting Emperor Qizhi finally came back to their senses.

After seeing the person clearly, Emperor Qizhi's eyes showed a light of hope, as if he had seen a savior!

"Mr. Gu, Mr. Gu! Now what? ”

The Emperor of the Xia Dynasty asked helplessly at this time.

The damage caused by this earthquake is much greater than the first!

It's already a disaster that is truly enough to destroy the country.

If it was only the imperial capital, Emperor Qizhi would still have the confidence to handle it.

I'm afraid that the entire Xia Dynasty is like this.

Even if it is based on the family background of the Xia Dynasty, it is tantamount to the pain of breaking the family!

This also means that the solid family foundation accumulated by the first two emperors for the Xia Dynasty will all be in trouble since he succeeded to the throne!

If this continues, what will be the ambition, so that the Xia Dynasty will not be considered a success if it does not destroy the country in three generations.

Although there were disasters during the reign of Wang Mang and Emperor Chengping, they were never so terrifying!

"The soldiers will come to block, and the water will cover the earth."

Gu Dan's expression seemed very calm, without a trace of panic.

Even the imperial capital of the Xia Dynasty was in turmoil, if even he showed that he was powerless, the people below really had no confidence at all.

It is not the disaster that is terrible, but the destruction caused by the disaster, and the impact on people's hearts.

In just two years, there were two large-scale ground movements.

There's no time to recuperate.

Even the order that was finally restored after the disaster will collapse completely.

In case there is a third or fourth time, even the Xia Dynasty will not be able to bear it!

No matter how thick the family foundation is, no one can withstand it if it is built like this.

"When the shock is over, organize the people who can still move as soon as possible. Seizing the time to save people is one thing, and the other is to open a warehouse and release grain, and don't be stingy with the things in the treasury.

To tell all the people that the Xia Dynasty will not give up on them, there is no need to worry. ”

Gu Dan said firmly.

After the catastrophe, it is nothing more than two things.

The first is to save people, and the second is to try to keep the rescued people alive.

This is the unbreakable truth, the real core.

Fortunately, the cohesion of the Xia Dynasty is not bad, and the family background is also thick, as long as the court shows enough confidence, even if it is pretended, it will make the people at the bottom feel at ease.

Peace of mind makes it easy to breed trouble.

The more resolute and powerful it is, the more it can give confidence to the people at the bottom.

"In addition, troubled times use heavy laws. Anyone who wants to make a fortune in the time of the great calamity will be killed! Whoever corrupts the law in times of chaos will be killed! Anyone who spreads rumors and corrupts the hearts of the people will be killed! ”

Three kills in a row are unforgiving, and they say it from their mouths, which is unquestionable.

The catastrophe is terrible, but when it happens, it happens, and no one can do anything about it.

Even more terrible is after the disaster.

Without adequate management and order, the places where connections are lost are like islands.

Once there are no constraints, it is not strange to do anything.

The manpower of the imperial court has also suffered heavy losses due to the catastrophe, and it is impossible to cover everything, so it can only be carried out.

"Cheer up, do whatever it takes, and do your best to save people."

In the end, Gu Dan summed it up like this.

The strength of one person is weak, and he can't save too many people if he is exhausted.

It is necessary to let the state apparatus of the Xia Dynasty run to the fullest extent in order to heal the disaster to the greatest extent.

Three months later.

In the small courtyard of the Gu family, Shang Zheng was holding an official document and reporting the situation of the Xia Dynasty to Gu Dan.

"In the past three months, under the full operation of the imperial court, the people around the imperial capital have been properly resettled, except for those who are really injured and died, no one has starved to death."

Shang said that it was not very happy news, and the expression on his face was solemn.

Just a rough calculation, just the imperial capital, there are more than 10,000 people who are directly unlucky enough to be stoned to death, and as for the serious injuries and even property losses, it is even more incalculable.

Around the imperial capital, the Xia Dynasty's control is also the strongest, and although it is bleak under full maintenance, it is still timely.

But the real bad news is yet to come!

"It's not so good elsewhere. First of all, Yuzhou, the source river broke the embankment again this time. Fortunately, when the first emperor was in power, he never slackened off on the governance of the source river, so the spread was not very wide, and the flooding was more than 100 miles, which was quite acceptable.

It's just that this year's harvest, I'm afraid it's not easy to leave 12/12. ”

Shang said with some heartache.

"It's okay, the Xia Dynasty still has food."

Gu Dan nodded lightly, looked at Shang Xuehong's eyes, and joked: "Emperor Qizhi dared to even think of fighting before, which proves that the Xia Dynasty is full of grain, and even if there is no harvest this year, timely disaster relief is not a big problem." ”

Shang Ye nodded and continued: "The extent of damage in other states is also quite large, and the scope and degree of ground movement this time are even better than the first time.

The only good news is that because of the first experience, this time the human organization can be regarded as a response, although the degree of the disaster has also increased, but the intensity is also unprecedented.

Legalists, Confucianists, Mohists, and the court have all mobilized to maintain order and inspire the people. As long as there is no shortage of food and clothing, there should be no big mess in the follow-up. ”

The Xia Dynasty was still on the rise.

It was not in the last years of the dynasty.

Even if Emperor Qizhi wanted to go against the concept of the Xia Dynasty, he was also ambitious and could not be regarded as a nonsense.

At least the Xia Dynasty really has that ability and background.

Although the calamity brought a heavy blow to the Xia Dynasty, it only curbed the momentum of the Xia Dynasty, damaged the foundation, and inevitably injured the muscles and bones, but it was not directly crippled.

"It's just that if you want to recover to your previous level, without more than ten years of recuperation, I'm afraid it's impossible."

After telling the current situation of the Xia Dynasty, Shang sighed.

For more than ten years, he must be gone.

With this remnant body, he could not witness the Xia Dynasty becoming more and more prosperous, but suddenly suffered a catastrophe.

This old man, who has served the Xia Dynasty all his life, does not marry or marry, and does not even have heirs, does not feel good in his heart.

"Not necessarily."

This time, Gu Dan shook his head.

"Mr. Gu has a way?"

Shang's eyes lit up with hope.

Could it be that there is something as far-reaching as "spreading the land into the acre" that can change a country's national policy?

"Can't say it's a way. It's just that behind the disaster, there are other effects. ”

Gu Dan said.

"What?"

Shang was puzzled.

"Reiki."

Gu Dan said affirmatively: "The direct cause of the disaster is very complicated, but you can simply understand that because of the appearance of the aura, it has caused great changes in the heavens and the earth.

And now, the aura that is abundant in heaven and earth is enough to benefit ordinary people. ”

"What do you mean?"

Shang Man's face was stunned, and he asked in disbelief, "Can you cultivate immortals?!" ”

"Yes."

Gu Dan nodded affirmatively, "For example, the concentration of spiritual energy in the world, some talented ordinary people have mastered the cultivation method and have been able to practice the Immortal Dao. ”

In Gu Dan's perception, the concentration of aura between heaven and earth at this time was probably equivalent to the mortal-level area of Ningfang.

It seems to be very ordinary.

But don't forget, it's no longer just one place, it's all over the world!

What's more, three months ago, although the aura concentration had skyrocketed, it had not increased to such an extent, and with the passage of time, the aura concentration between heaven and earth was becoming more and more abundant.

Judging from such changes, it won't be long before it reaches the concentration of the former Ningfang Yellow-level area—it is a good place for monks in the Qi Refining Period.

If this increase does not slow down, it will not be too long before the mortal world will no longer seem strange to the Immortal Dao. Because around them, you can see real changes.

Like what

Gu Dan's eyes looked at the only remaining scorching sun chrysanthemum in the Gu family's small courtyard.

The previous ground movement caused the former Gu family's small courtyard to collapse, and now although it has been rebuilt according to the appearance of the past, it is not the same place after all.

But Lieyang Tianju did not suffer any damage at all, not to mention, but grew more and more gratifying.

And within a few zhang of the body shrouded by the scorching sun celestial chrysanthemum, the aura concentration also increased by a grade, reaching the rest of the Ningfang yellow level in the past one step first, which is equivalent to surpassing the earthly world by one level.

Ordinary people staying in that range will consciously feel comfortable and invigorated.

If you can live forever, you can live longer.

It is somewhat similar to the "Cave Heaven Blessed Land" in the immortal road classics.

This strain of Lieyang Tianju, which has taken root in the Gu family's courtyard since before the establishment of the Xia Dynasty, is one of the first to receive great benefits in the changes of this life.

The upheavals of heaven and earth have brought unspeakable destruction to the earthly world.

But in the midst of destruction, there is also a new life born in it.

It's just that many people are immersed in the helplessness and sorrow of destruction, and they don't realize it.

What kind of impact will the aura of the sudden appearance of the world have on the dynasty that has become accustomed to not having immortal paths?

What drastic changes will it bring to mortal dust?

It's not clear either.

But there is no doubt that people who do not adapt to changes in the environment will eventually be eliminated.

Natural selection, and the fittest, can survive.

Shang's face also showed a little thoughtfulness, but he knew very little about the Immortal Dao, and he couldn't even take care of it, so he naturally had a black eye.

But now that the news is known, it is useful.

"The day before yesterday, envoys from Daqi and other countries rushed to ask for assistance from the Xia Dynasty. This thing, you see? ”

Shang didn't ask about the Immortal Dao, but instead brought up another matter.

Gu Dan didn't speak, and looked up at the sky.

There was something cold and cold, which slid down from the sky and fell on the body, and felt a little cold.

It's snowing.

Winter has arrived.

Man is a creature who depends on heaven and earth, and the matter of relying on heaven for food has not changed at any time.

Every winter, it is a torture of people.

In the cold winter season, everything is slaughtered.

Even if you know that after the cold winter, it will be spring flowers, how many people can see it?

There was a brief silence.

Gu Dan said: "Settle down the Xia Dynasty first, if you have spare strength, you can relieve it." If there is no energy left. Since the Xia Dynasty is the first. ”
