The river was suppressed, and the river, which was separated by the Xiejiangyan and flowed into the city of Hemen, continued to carry out its mission.

Its water level is lower, and its current has slowed down, and it is far less terrifying than before. There were still a few carriages full of white cloth shrouded corpses at the gate of the city, but when Xu Huaigu passed by them, he heard the officers and soldiers beside the carriages say that this was the last group of people to die of the epidemic.

The prescriptions developed by the government have worked very well, and many patients have slowly recovered.

Xu Huaigu continued to walk into the city. He didn't go straight to Chen Congming's mansion, but he relied on his memory to go to the dilapidated house where many victims lived.

When he approached, he found that the dilapidated house had been eroded by the rain, and had collapsed in the afternoon.

Fortunately, the evacuation was timely, and there were no casualties among the people inside. According to an old man nearby, the government moved the victims to another place.

So Xu Huaigu walked towards Chen's mansion. On the way, he passed by the famous house

The large pharmacy of "Xinglintang". It was already night, but the pharmacy was still open. He glanced inside, and there were already five or six men behind the counter, not alone.

There was no one queuing up to go to the second floor for diagnosis and treatment, and the patients all took the medicine according to the unified prescription. Xu Huaigu missed the old man on the second floor, but he deliberately went up to the second floor, but he didn't see him.

Maybe he didn't need Lang Zhong to see a doctor, so he went home and rested. Xu Huaigu sincerely hopes that he can survive this epidemic, and I hope so.

He walked further and saw that the white lanterns on both sides of the street had been removed quite a bit, and the doors of the houses were open.

There were men and women, old and young, all of whom had a fan in their hands, moved a bench and sat in the courtyard to enjoy the shade, and talked about the short gossip of the parents.

Naturally, the topic can't avoid today's flood. A man in the courtyard said, "I had fled a long way out of the city, and I could see clearly from that ridge." There was a man the size of a grain of rice on the river, and he rushed forward with all his might, and the flood receded until it reached the mouth of the weir. The man shouted something, something 'suppress here,' 'never go over the hilt of the sword,' or something, and the river retreated immediately, just as he had said. You say, "God is not magical?" Another questioned, "Really? How can anyone have that kind of ability, is it still a human being? The man before argued: "Where is the man, that is the fairy!" I saw it with my own eyes! Even if you don't see it, you hear it, right? ”

"Well, I did hear it, but it was still a little hard to believe."

"It's true, I've seen it with my own eyes." It was a woman's shrill voice. She came out of the house, brought a few bowls of herbal tea, distributed them to everyone, and sat down next to the man who said that he had seen the fairy, and said,

"That's really a fairy, and even the voice is weirdly handsome." Everyone laughed and looked at the couple with some teasing.

The husband is not annoyed, he just laughs and laughs. Everyone drank tea, and said that the fight for the fight could not get a result, it is better to go to the Xiejiangyan another day to see, if there is really the sword left by the gods, it must be true.

During the conversation, I couldn't help but mention it again

The phrase "never go beyond the hilt of the sword" was greeted by a child who came out of nowhere and shouted, "What pancakes?" Where's the pancakes? I want to eat! ”

"And pancakes, pancakes! A little cub who has no interest, he doesn't know how to read all day long, and he just wants to eat! The woman stood up, presumably trying to catch him, but the child blinked and didn't know where to hide.

The woman had to go home empty-handed, and the rest of the room burst into laughter. Xu Huaigu stood outside the wall at the gate of the courtyard, listened for a long time, and smiled.

The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals. Xu Huaigu thinks that he is not an immortal, but a mortal with seven emotions and six desires.

He was very happy that he had made the right decision before, there were more than one such lights, and behind every courtyard gate in Hemen City was a small world of freedom with its own system.

The coolness of a midsummer night, the glimmer of fireflies, the starry sky, the noisy chirping of cicadas. This is the world, but it is like a fairyland.

Xu Huaigu continued to walk forward until he came to the magnificent vermilion lacquer gate of Chen Congming's mansion.

Now that it was night, the vermilion gate was closed, and Xu Huaigu didn't want to cause too much trouble this time, so he didn't plan to enter through the main gate.

He walked to the side of the mansion, found a secluded and uninhabited place, and with a slight leap of his foot, he calmly and silently landed in the mansion.

This is the garden of Chen's house, and there is no one at night. He followed his memory and walked to the main house where Chen Congming and Shen Hanguang lived, and on the way, he couldn't help but meet the maids who were still busy carrying lanterns, but he avoided them one by one.

The main room is still brightly lit, and the night is not yet deep, and Chen Congming and Shen Hanguang should not have slept yet. Xu Huaigu raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but the hand just wanted to land on the door, but he hesitated.

He didn't know if the two had recognized their identities, and if they did, how could they say goodbye to him this time?

Maybe it was the people in the room who saw the shadow at the door through the light, and Chen Congming urged inside: "Madame's medicine is fried and sent in quickly, why are you standing at the door and being stunned?" Xu Huaigu pushed open the door and walked in.

Chen Congming thought it was a maid, and when he was about to say a few more words, when he saw that it was Xu Huaigu, he was suddenly shocked, and the words that had reached his lips were also swallowed back by him.

Shen Hanguang was still lying on the bed, as if he was asleep in a daze. Xu Huaigu glanced at the bed, her face was already rosy, the skin on her arms was moist, and she didn't cough, it was much stronger than in the early morning, and sure enough, her method worked.

Chen Congming was surprised: "Why are you?" Xu Huaigu was afraid of waking up Shen Hanguang, so he replied softly: "I specially came to see Mrs. Yuanwai." Is Mrs. Shen's condition better? But Shen Hanguang slept lightly, and was still woken up by the sound of the two talking.

When she saw that it was Xu Huaigu, she immediately smiled, and said to herself without waiting for Chen Congming to speak: "It's much better, it's really much better." It was as if someone had unloaded the stone in my heart, and the whole person suddenly became better. It's still a good medicine, it's really a good way to save people. Chen Congming, who read the book, looked at Xu Huaigu with some uncertainties, as if he had something to say to him, but he was hesitating.

Shen Hanguang smiled and asked Xu Huaigu, "Shouldn't you follow Master Baihe and them back to the temple, why did you come here again?" Xu Huaigu replied: "Isn't this big water also receding?" There was no need to go up the mountain, so I stayed. Thinking about Mrs. Shen's condition, so let's take a look. ”

"You kid, what do I have to think about in this illness, I'm already cured." Shen Hanguang struggled to sit up, but he was still very weak after recovering from a serious illness, and he couldn't sit up, but Chen Congming was so shocked that he hurriedly said: "You have a good rest, if you move again, where will it hurt, how can you let Xu Songtu go?" Shen Hanguang had no choice but to give up, smiled at Xu Huaigu, and lay down on the bed again.

Chen Congming looked at Xu Huaigu with a complicated expression and said, "We might as well take a step to talk." Xu Huaigu nodded and followed Chen Congming to the outside of the main house.

Chen Congming deliberately went further, so the two walked all the way to the garden and looked at the moon by the pond.

"Since you still come to my Chen Mansion, I won't hide some things from you." Chen Congming asked directly,

"The person who suppressed the river today, isn't it you?" Xu Huaigu knew that he couldn't hide it, so he nodded slightly, but did not deny it.

Chen Congming seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, was silent for a moment, and suddenly knelt down towards him. Xu Huaigu was shocked, hurriedly helped Chen Congming up, and said, "What kind of trouble is Chen Yuanwai going to make?" Torment me! Chen Congming trembled, but he knelt on the ground desperately, no matter how Xu Huaigu helped him, he didn't move.

He said in an eager tone: "Immortal Chief, don't help me, let me kneel!" Xu Huaigu couldn't, so he had to dodge to his side, refusing to accept his kneeling.

Chen Congming was very emotional, two lines of old tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "Immortal Chang saved Hemen City, and he is the reborn parent of all the people in Hemen City. This kindness, I knelt for three days and three nights, and how! The night breeze blew, and Xu Huaigu saw that the tips of his hair and sideburns were slightly white in the moonlight, and he sighed in his heart.

Chen Congming really put the people of Hemen on the tip of his heart, and it was the first time Xu Huaigu had seen such a parental official.

Xu Huaigu replied to him solemnly: "In fact, what I do is no different from what I do outside the staff. It's just doing their best to help this Hemen City survive the disaster. Everything Chen Yuanwai did for the people of Hemen some time ago, I Xu saw it in my eyes and remembered it in my heart. If it weren't for Chen Yuan's appearance, maybe I wouldn't have made this sword. Chen Congming still couldn't kneel for a long time, and said with tears in his eyes: "Immortal Elder Grace, please allow me to make a statue for Immortal Elder in the city." ”

"I can't help it!" Xu Huaigu said busily,

"I have done my duty, not to be rewarded."

"If the immortal chief said that it was his duty to save the crane gate, then it was also my duty to make a statue of the immortal chief! Hemen will firmly remember the kindness of the immortal chief and pass it on from generation to generation. Xu Huaigu stood in place, silent.

Cast it with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao. Everyone has this simple heart. Xu Huaigu couldn't resist him, so he sighed and said, "Then follow what Chen Yuanwai said." I promised you, and I asked the staff to get up quickly. I came to do this to be with you, but it was not my intention to cause you to do these things. Chen Congming stood up slowly.

Xu Huaigu asked again, "What about Su Mulan's girl?" How are you doing in the house? Chen Congming replied: "It's much better than a few days ago." Although she is still a little depressed, I can tell that she will slowly figure it out. But since she is the fate of the immortal, I don't dare to deal with it in vain, where will she go in the future, and I ask the immortal chief to decide. Xu Huaigu thought for a moment and said, "Wait until the water passes." If she wanted to go back to her hometown, she would send some money to let her go; If you want to stay in Hemen, you can trouble Chen Yuanwai to help her find a job, so that she can live. As for my identity, she must not know it. Chen Congming bowed his head and said, "Obey the order of the immortal chief." Xu Huaigu was helpless.

He really couldn't stand such etiquette, but Chen Congming insisted on doing it, and he couldn't help it. The two chatted for a while, and Xu Huaigu said that he was leaving.

Chen Congming wanted to send him, but Xu Huaigu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Sending people thousands of miles, there will be a farewell in the end, Chen Yuanwai should hurry back to accompany Mrs. Shen." In the future, if it is time, I will definitely go back to Hemen again and talk about the old relationship with my wife. After that, Xu Huaigu sacrificed the flying sword, stepped on it, and the flying sword carried him into the clouds, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Chen Congming stood in place, watching Xu Huaigu go away. After he disappeared, he burst into tears again, knelt down in the direction of Xu Huaigu's departure, and didn't get up for a long time.

Xu Huaigu had never seen his parents and officials who were so enthusiastic about the people, so why wasn't he? Chen Congming had never seen a monk like Xu Huaigu, a monk who was willing to resist the heavenly tribulation for the mortal people.
