In the city of Tianniu Prefecture, today's atmosphere is particularly solemn, you can see one or two from the soldiers at the head of the city, the entire high wall is full of soldiers walking back and forth, these are the city guards of Tianniu Prefecture, the city of a state, in addition to maintaining the security of the city, in addition to the government service and arresting fast, this is another army dispatched by the city lord.

In general, there will be two armies of this size in each state capital, and the same is true for the next level. One is the city guard army that the city lord can deploy, this kind of army is generally selected from inside and outside the city, how much will be a little tricky, a bit of martial arts, there is the name of a soldier, but there is no actual soldier.

In the eyes of the soldiers, the city guards are actually the so-called 'rabble', and the other force that can play a role at the real critical moment is the garrison, these soldiers are not like the city guards, their activity area is generally in the camp, and they are all outsiders, and they are the elite who can really go to the battlefield.

The city guards are brightly armored, patrolling, and on several streets in the city, you can see the fast guards in their clothes, this battle, even the peddlers and pawns from outside the city can also see, today's Tianniu Prefecture is different, the dirty streets in the past have been cleaned up a lot.

The people walking in it couldn't help but be a little more restrained, but those Jianghu warriors were still very arrogant, sitting in the major teahouses, drinking their own tea, listening to their own books, or lighting a jar of wine, and the people who accompanied them made a drinking order.

At the gate of the east city, the city lord with the officials in the city early in the morning, waiting at the gate of the city, quietly lined up on both sides, against the slightly chilly breeze in the morning, these high-ranking officials on weekdays did not dare to have half a word of complaint, and looked straight at the official road at the city gate.

The ground was still wet, and many officials had mud splashes on their brand-new shoes and uniforms.

City Lord Weng Rui, Wugang Realm Martial Artist, in the civil official system of the Great Yin Dynasty, the cultivation realm is also a kind of qualification for official promotion, of course, it is not that people who have no cultivation cannot stand out in the official system, but the whole atmosphere is like this, and no cultivation may not be able to suppress the people under him.

Perennially in a high position, Weng Rui's Qi cultivation kung fu has been perfected, his expression is calm, calm and majestic, just standing there, there is an invisible momentum that overshadows the audience.

The waiting team waited for about a quarter of an hour, and finally a figure appeared at the end of the official road, only three people, all of them were yellow horses in the Dayin Station, two of them were wearing the standard official robes of the martial arts hall, wearing a standard long knife, Weng Rui's eyebrows jumped slightly, one of them was actually the overhaul of the Six Sedum Human Realm.

As for the leader one, he was dressed in a black martial arts outfit, with a delicate gourd pinned to his waist, his long hair tied up casually behind his back, holding the reins in one hand and touching the saddle in the other, looking like he hadn't woken up.

Da Yin Wufu, there are very few people who use mace, and even in Weng Rui's cognition, there are few people who use mace in the imperial dynasties outside Da Yin, not because there are no similar inheritances and martial arts, but in order to avoid guarding the guards from the Central Empire.

When he got closer, Weng Rui took the lead in saluting.

"Weng Rui, the city lord of Tianniu Prefecture, and the officials in the city have seen the patrolmen." As for the two officials from the Lecture Martial Hall, they didn't mention it directly, their identities were not worthy of being compared with the patrolmen, they obviously knew this, and there was not the slightest unhappiness on their faces, on horseback, with a solemn face and no squint.

"Weng Rui? How many years have you been in Tianniu State? ”

"Back to the envoy, this year is the tenth year."

The sleepy-eyed man on horseback smiled, "Interesting, in ten years, as the lord of a state, you didn't even know that an evil god appeared in your territory?" ”

"Please also ask the envoy to move, the lower official has prepared lunch, the upper envoy has been tired all the way, you can take a break for a while, the lower official will report on the side, there is another hidden situation here, please listen to the lower official's report, and then make a decision." Weng Rui said in a deep voice, this matter is actually not his own business alone, stealing divine power is not an overnight thing, when he came to take office, Tianniu Prefecture already had such an evil god.

Huangfu Zheng didn't raise his eyes, he was the walking of the Central Empire, and he was also a patrolman, he had walked too many countries, and he had seen too many hidden secrets, these so-called stories that moved the world, he had already been numb, and it sounded like that, the story in front of him called Da Yin Tianniu Prefecture was nothing more than that.

The ending was doomed, so he didn't bother to say anything, just nodded, "Okay, lead the way." ”

Weng Rui was stunned for a moment, he was a little surprised by Huang Fuzheng's good speech, the envoy of the Central Empire, as long as it is indeed this identity, then no matter which dynasty he walks to, he will receive some special treatment, and the emperor has to bow his head and salute when he sees it, because what they represent is not them personally, but the will of the Supreme of the Central Empire.

Even a commoner without any official status would be treated favorably in other dynasties.

"Yes, Envoy please!"

Weng Rui turned over and led everyone to the palace, in the process of gradually, many lower-ranking officials had already left, for them, their task was just to make up a number when they were welcomed, so that the patrolman from the empire could see the attitude of Tianniu Prefecture.

Entering the palace, passing through the courtyard, and screening out a large number of officials, finally, when he came to this exquisite courtyard, Weng Rui only had two officials by his side, one article and one martial arts, the military attache was the commander of the Tianniu Prefecture garrison, and the rank was a little lower than Weng Rui, who was the lord of the city, but because there was no governing relationship between the two, they were polite to each other.

The civil official is the highest-ranking official in the government except for the city lord Weng Rui.

As soon as a few people sat down, a group of young women found by Weng Rui were like butterflies wearing flowers, holding various exquisite dishes to the Huangfu main table, and bursts of fragrant wind came to the face, making Huangfu Zheng's sleepy eyes brighter a little, but the eyes were very clear, and there was no evil or desire in the eyes of these women.

Weng Rui saw all this in his eyes, and the thoughts that originally came to his mind were dispelled by him, and he only let these women finish serving the food and retreated.

"Let's talk about it!" The imperial fu sitting on the main seat was eating slowly, and the two martial arts officials on the side also started.

"Yes!"

Weng Rui didn't dare to say anything, and immediately told all the things about the evil god in charge of the wind and rain in Tianniu Prefecture, including the origin of his heels, these things, although the control of the imperial court was a little weaker for a while, but for local officials, the things that happened within their jurisdiction were still clear.

What's more, Tianniu Prefecture is close to the Shendu, and no matter how bold an official is, he doesn't dare to be presumptuous under the emperor's nose.

With Weng Rui's narration, Huangfu is listening to interesting stories, good stories, and good food, which is much more interesting than a boring journey.

That happened one hundred and forty years ago, Tianniu Prefecture has not always been smooth, for the people who watch the sky to eat, there has never been a change in the four solar terms, at that time, Tianniu Prefecture experienced a full five years of drought, and the developed water system could not save the drought in Tianniu Prefecture.

Countless victims fled, the cracks in the paddy fields were more than three feet deep, at that time in Tianniu Prefecture, it was really full of yellow dust, thousands of miles of red land, where the victims passed, such as flying locusts crossing, how many mountains of grass and trees in the rolling tide of hungry people, it was not enough to see, tree bark, grass roots, soil, as long as it can be used to fill the stomach, without exception, all for the victims to eat.

This is only what I saw in the general environment, and it was even more terrifying that I couldn't see it in the group of victims, and the people at that time could no longer be called people, and it was just a common thing to change children and wives to eat, and they were like wild beasts, holding on to prevent themselves from falling, while looking at their fellow travelers with green eyes.

But when anyone falls, it becomes food for the mouths of others.

In this context, anything happens as if it is taken for granted, the relief of the imperial court can be solved for a while, but it cannot be solved, the drought for five consecutive years, such a big hole, the people of a state, the imperial court can not support it at all.

And now this evil god in Tianniu Prefecture was born in such an environment, it is an old cattle that has vaguely become the climate, its owner has long been submerged in history, did not write down, the old cattle lived for nearly fifty years, in the first year of the great drought, it seems to sense something, that night of dreaming that this has already been hungry, no rice to cook, but dare not, can't bear to destroy the only farmer in the family The head of the household killed it to take meat, and at the same time let them leave Tianniu Prefecture as soon as possible.

This family obviously doesn't really plan to do that, the old cow's miracle they see in their eyes, the muscles and muscles all over the body, the hair is shiny, this cow works for a day, but compared to other people's three or four cows, no one can know when the drought will end, the longer the time, the more people feel that the heavy rain is coming, the drought will eventually pass.

Once the drought passes, their family's life still depends on this old cow, in that catastrophe, too many people are so planned, Tianniu Prefecture is already rich, the people have some surplus in their homes, and there is the help of the imperial court, no one is willing to leave their hometown, a few months, a year, two years, the longer they wait, the longer the drought lasts, the more they feel that it will soon pass.

No one could have imagined that the drought would last for five years, and by that time, it would be too late.

At that time, not long after the drought began, the family only thought the dream was strange, and did not do much, and life went on as usual, so after a few days, they got up early in the morning and found that the sturdy old cow had died in their own cowshed, and the master did not kill it, so he gave up his life and offered a body of meat to them......
