541. The ground collapsed, and the city did not (Monday for recommendation votes)
The prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, the prosperous era of the descendants of Yan and Huang.
Wang Qilin has seen some information, which says that until the Tang and Song dynasties, there were city god temples and immortal ancestral halls in various parts of Jiuzhou, but in the previous dynasty, the court won the world in injustice, ruled the world in injustice, and there were many changes in the sky and the earth.
Since then, the temple has disappeared, and demons and monsters are rampant, and the Terrans have to rely on their own strength to kill demons.
Before that, the main task of the monks was to seek immortality and seek the avenue, but after that, the monks changed to serve in the imperial court, or the various sects and the imperial court united to deal with demons and monsters to protect the people.
According to Wang Qilin's speculation, perhaps at a certain time in the previous dynasty, the city gods were summoned to leave the human realm, and most of the places such as the City God Temple and the Land Temple disappeared and disappeared.
To put it simply, the underworld only cares about ghosts, and doesn't care about people's affairs.
But there is a god city left here, I don't know why it stayed, anyway, this god city has also been abandoned, the city god inside has not been recalled, and there is a new city god to come to take over.
In short, the work of the Underworld Yin Division in the local area is a bit problematic.
In the end, Yin Si failed to take the city god away and destroy the city, but the connection between the city and the underworld was broken, and it became an underground empty city.
It coincided with a drought year, and the village dug a well to open up the underground space where the city was located, and the villagers discovered the city.
During this period, they found a way to enter and exit the city safely, relying on the things inside to live, the original city god who was trapped in the city wanted to leave, maybe the deal with them was unsuccessful, and finally the time came sixteen years ago, Lei Yongjie came to the township to make a small seal, and discovered this underground city.
Yuan Chenghuang made a deal with Lei Yongjie, he didn't know what to give Lei Yongjie, anyway, Lei Yongjie sent Shen Yi when he was a teenager and let him attach himself to Shen Yi.
It was also at that time that Elder Wufeng arrived.
There should have been a big battle between him and Chenghuang, and in the end, Chenghuang failed to come to the Yang World with his original consciousness, but merged with Shen Yi's consciousness and became a new personality, a crazy personality.
Elder Wufeng took him away and accepted him as a disciple, which gradually led to today's Shen Yi.
As for the reason for the diversion of the Great Reed River and the subsidence and fall of the uphill and downhill slopes, Wang Qilin had many speculations but only speculations, and he was not sure which was the truth.
However, he could guess that the trickery of the Great Reed River was closely related to this God's City, and the little clay figures he and Fat Wuyi had seen were all the appearance of the God's City Yin soldiers in the human world, and they were still pulling people for God's City.
Normally, they are supposed to be ghosts that hook souls and take away the end of their lives, but when the city is in chaos, they go to harm others themselves, turn them into ghosts, and then bring them into the city, and line them up in front of the four passages.
It's as if the ghosts are still entering the city in an orderly manner.
When you think of this? Wang Qilin suddenly fused this incident with some scenes from the earth in his dreams:
The operation of the underworld and the city seems to be controlled by intelligence? Yin Bing Yin Cha and the City God are intelligently manipulated robots, and if there is a problem with the intelligence, the operation of the underworld and the City God will be terminated.
But the robots didn't get the right instructions? They continued to operate according to the prescribed procedures, bringing some ghosts into the city from time to time......
He doesn't think there's anything wrong with this understanding? But he can't tell anyone else, because if he wants to explain this, he first has to explain to everyone what intelligence is, what is a system, and what is a robot? That's going to be a lot of work.
They waited most of the day and half the night? Wait until it's past midnight? Xie Toad asked Wang Qilin to call Bai Yunjian out.
He said to the little black ghost, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable? Lord Bai, Lao Dao will take you to a place? You go and feel it with your heart and see if you can sense anything. β
Wang Qilin asked, "Is it safe to go down now?"
Xie Toad said: "It should be safe, even if it's not safe, it's okay, the old way has the power to protect himself." β
After a pause, he looked at Bai Yunjian and said, "There are local city gods here, so there's nothing to worry about." β
Bai Yunjian squatted down and hugged his head and asked, "Where are you going to take me? Who are you going to meet?"
Wang Qilin said: "Go to an empty and quiet place, if you are lucky, you should not see a living personβno, you can still see a living person." β
When Bai Yunjian heard this, he finally cheered up a little.
Wang Qilin also wanted to go down, Xie Toad shook his head and said: "Forget it, Seventh Master, you stay above to lead the overall situation, and leave it to Lao Dao below." β
Hearing this, Wang Qilin had no choice but to agree.
I don't know what the situation is in God's City below, and I don't know what Shen Yi has become now.
Xie Toad's cultivation is profound, and he is proficient in countless Taoist techniques, no matter what kind of strong enemy he faces, he may not have the strength to fight, but he must have the ability to escape.
Wang Qilin didn't go down and dragged him back.
Xie Toad led the white clouds down with the river, and the group waited around worriedly.
Fat Wuyi took a roast chicken leg to Wang Qilin, Wang Qilin refused, he gave it to Xu Da again, and Xu Da also refused.
He finally gave Swallow, Swallow opened his mouth, and then a few glances came over.
So he swallowed and said, "I'm not hungry." β
While they were anxiously waiting, Xie Toad finally flew up against the current, carrying a person on his back, it was Shen Yi.
Shen Yi passed out in a coma, his face was quiet, and he was completely a handsome monk.
After Xie Toad came up, he hurriedly said, "Seventh Master, hurry up, go quickly!"
"What's wrong?" Wang Qilin asked.
Xie Toad said: "This place is about to fall, and the entire area of God's City is going to fall!"
Wang Qilin didn't bother to ask what was going on, he put away the Dao Law boat and gathered everyone to withdraw quickly.
Fat Wuyi said positively: "Our clansmen are all here, and the big guy can ride us!"
A young man puffed out his fat cheeks and said, "What stupid thing are you talking about? Fat May Day? Good green girl can't be ridden!"
Fat Wuyi said: "If you don't want to be ridden, then don't be here, anyway, I'll let the seventh master ride." The seventh master is a hero, in ancient times, Zhou Cang carried a knife for Guan Erye, and now I have my fat May 1st for the seventh master to ride!"
Xie Toad said anxiously: "Beyond the friction of the Heavenly Venerable, hurry up!"
More than a dozen green horses ran over, each of them had a surplus of one horse and one horse, and the green grass stried, and the mountains and fields quickly swept in their field of vision.
They ran a few steps, and there was a muffled rumble under their feet......
Xu shouted, "Fortunately, we ran in time, but why is this voice not quite right?"
Xie Toad shouted: "Immeasurable your mother's Tianzun! I ran in the wrong directionβforget it, speed up, speed up!"
The greens ran wildly, and the ground beneath their feet became fragments and collapsed layer by layer.
Wang Qilin reacted quickly, pointed to the south and shouted: "Run sideways!"
Fat May 1st turned, and a jump went out ten feet away!
Soon.
The subsidence crisis was lifted suddenly.
They stood on a hill and looked down, watching the earth collapse with a roar, a huge hill appeared, and the raging river of reeds broke off!
The river has filled the ravines, and it is expected that a narrow lake will appear here in the near future.
The group lined up to watch the scene.
Scourges are terrible!
Everyone can see farther away when they sit on the tall green trees, and the young people are very curious, and they also want to see far, so some of them stand on the backs of their companions......
Two horses stacked on top of each other, this scene Wang Qilin also saw for the first time.
Then another young man jumped up......
The white ape asked anxiously, "Master Dao, what's going on?"
Xie Toad said with a solemn face: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, this underground god city should have been destroyed a long time ago, Seventh Master, what, cough cough, that, it's the old way, you know, manpower is sometimes exhausted ......"
He squeaked and whimpered, and the more he talked, the more he was embarrassed.
Wang Qilin suddenly understood what was going on: "Master Dao, have you overturned again?"
Xie Toad said embarrassedly: "This and this, it's not, it's just that something is not calculated, and the wheel of the car shook twice." β
"Please speak directly. Wang Qilin picked his ears.
But his eyes widened again: "It can't be the two groups of people surnamed Lei who ran away, right?"
Xie Toad shook his head and said, "That's not true, they are all dead, Lord Lei's head was cut off, as if he was used as a sacrifice." The others didn't know why there was infighting, only two of them were slaughtered by Shen Yi, and the rest all died of cannibalism. β
Xu Da asked, "Then where did you overturn?"
Xie Toad smiled bitterly: "The old Taoist thinks that Baiyunjian is a local new city god, but in fact it is not, it is a messenger from the underworld, who came to be responsible for destroying this underground god city. β
"I don't know how Yin Si arranged, Baiyunjian failed to become a complete messenger of the underworld, and its creation was divided by the weasel Xiaoshuang, that is to say, Xiaoshuang absorbed some of its luck, so it was able to grow a double tail and have cultivation. β
"Lao Dao took them down into God's City, and passed through Ghost Gate Pass, Wangxiangtai and other places all the way, until the reincarnation tunnel, they received the will of the remnants of Yin Si and used a spell that could destroy this God's City. β
Speaking of this, Xie Toad sighed a little: "I don't know if this is the last god city in Jiuzhou, if so, then how a pity it would be to destroy it like this." β
Wang Qilin asked, "What about Shen Yi?"
Xie Toad said: "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, Shen Yi is fine, as long as he is not on his territory, he is still the Shen Yi you are familiar with." β
Wang Qilin touched Shen Yi's bald head and sighed lightly: "It's good to let him be a fool for the rest of his life." β
"What about Bai Yunjian and his weasel?" Wang Qilin asked again.
Xie Toad pointed to the subsidence that was carrying the river and said, "I guess I found a hole in it to hide, he doesn't like to interact with people, maybe it's good to hide in it." β
Wang Qilin shook his head, walked to the ground depression, put his hands to his mouth, and shouted in a trumpet shape: "Old white and old white, come out quickly, go back to my ship!"
"Lao Bai Lao Bai, my Dao boat is where you should go, don't stay here, what's the point of staying in this place?"
"I'm not going back!" a shout came downstream.
Wang Qilin was overjoyed in his heart and said with a smile: "Lao Bai Lao Bai, if you don't go back, then stay, there will be many water ghosts coming to this place in the future, don't believe you look at it." β
"And this big reed river is the mother river of Zhending Mansion and several cities, and the sudden interruption of the flow will definitely arouse the suspicion of the Heavenly Prison and the Yamen, you wait, there will be a steady stream of people coming and people going into the water in the next few days, and they will look for your ...... when the time comes."
Bai Yunjian rode a wet weasel and came running, and his words were crying: "Is what you said true?"
Wang Qilin asked, "Guess what?"
"Isn't it?" Bai Yunjian asked tentatively.
Wang Qilin smiled: "If you guessed wrong, you can guess again." β
Bai Yunjian sobbed and returned to the Dao Law Boat.
It was quiet in the Dao Law boat, and no one could disturb them except Wang Qilin.
Wang Qilin comforted him and said: "Don't be sad, I will definitely go to sea in the future, and when the time comes, I will send you to an overseas island, and you don't dislike being lonely when the time comes!"
"Don't dislike, don't dislike. Bai Yunjian said excitedly, "Seventh Master, you have to do what you say!"
Swallowing his mouth and closing his eyes in pain: "As soon as the seventh master screamed, I felt that he couldn't get off the thief ship." β
Wang Qilin went to find an open space and lit the mirage candle, and let everyone go in to rest together.
Fat Five-One, Fat Four and Five, came to him with young and old people who were green-backed, and among them there were big toads with green backs.
Wang Qilin blinked when he saw it: "Is this a young man?"
He reached out and poked the big toad's buttocks, and the big toad quickly jumped forward and hid behind the fat four or five.
Seeing this, he was happy: "Hey, there are toads in Daming Lake, poke and jump." β
Fat four or five said unhappily: "Seventh master, what are you doing here, why are you poking my niece's ass?"
Wang Qilin was stunned: "It's, it's a girl?"
A group of big fat heads brushed the dots.
Wang Qilin coughed and quickly changed the topic: "Why did you suddenly appear here?"
As soon as they heard this, the young men began to speak:
"We found it. β
"Yes, we're looking for you, it's been a hard journey. β
"It's not hard, the seventh master said that he wanted to come to Zhending Mansion, and then when he arrived at Zhending Mansion, he could find Luoba County as soon as he inquired, and then he could find it here as soon as he inquired in Luoba County. β
"But it's really tiring. β
There was a chicken farm in the house, and Wang Qilin began to experience the pain among the white clouds.
He rubbed his temples and asked, "Quiet, quiet, listen to me, why did you come to me?"
"Because a few days after you left, a group of people came looking for us, and they were very fierce. β
"yes, if we get caught, let's say, find a good group of slaves. β
"It's really annoying, if I can't beat them, I must beat them!"
"They still wanted to interrogate us, but we ran fast, Dao Ye left a Bamen formation, we delayed for a while, and then ran away from the opening. β
Wang Qilin pressed down his hands and said, "Can you let the fat four or five come to speak? Who are you in charge here? Let the master come out and speak!"
In fact, he has roughly figured out the situation in the gossip, that is, after they left Niulang Gou, another group of people went to Niulang Gou, this group of people has a very high cultivation, and they will find Qingyu and then arrest them.
As for the identity of this group, Wang Qilin estimates that the young people are not clear.
As a result, he still underestimated Qing Yan.
Fat Four or Five said to him: "This group of people is from a place called Guzhou Island overseas, they are here to find you, Seventh Master, although they don't know your identity, they are here for you." β
"That's right, it's for the Seventh Master, because they asked us who had opened a killing ring in the Cowherd Ditch before!"
"Seventh Master, you have opened a killing ring, you should have killed their friends, and they came to take revenge. β
Wang Qilin groaned: "Lonely Boat Island, why don't I remember having any holiday with this place?"
Fat Wuyi said: "Seventh Master, maybe you have inadvertently killed some demons and monsters, but that demon and monster have something to do with Guzhou Island, right?"
Wang Qilin nodded, it should indeed be so.
He had heard of this place several times, and he estimated that he would have to go overseas in the future to see for himself what was going on on Lonely Boat Island.
The young men ran all the way and were frightened for a long time, so Wang Qilin placed them to sleep.
The yard of the Mirage Candle was big enough for them to live in.
Slept until dawn, and the big guy got up.
It's not that Wang Qilin is distressed and reluctant to continue burning, but that local people have appeared outside one after another.
A section of the lower reaches of the Dawei River was cut off, and the common people came as soon as the morning dawned.
The city is huge and deep underground, and the subsidence caused by its destruction is so deep that the river will not be able to fill the place for a while.
The common people were stunned when they looked at the deep and vast depression, and some shed tears on the spot:
They have to rely on the Great Reed River for food, and the Great Reed River is cut off, what will happen to their crops?
Wang Qilin went to appease them and said, "Fellow villagers, don't worry, this Dawei River has a large flow, and it won't take many days to fill this place, and there will still be water in the river by then." β
"Yes, and it's raining in Jingchu, and if there is another rainstorm, it will be easier to fill in this place. Xu Da also went to help.
Some people shouted in despair: "Where is the rain? Since the beginning of spring this year, there has been no rain at all, and we have to rely on the Dawei River for our draft.
Wang Qilin felt that something was wrong, the Jingchu area has been a rainy place since ancient times, how could there be no rain in spring?
He thought of the heavy snowstorm in the north last winter, and faintly felt that the climate in Jiuzhou was not right these days.
Xie Toad said: "Don't be afraid, Lao Dao can ask for rain for you, and ask for a heavy rainstorm to help you relieve the suffering of drought." β
He stroked his long white beard and flew up, and said to the people who came to hear the news: "There is a reason why the Great Reed River is cut off this time, and there is a big demon hidden in the river this place. β
"But from now on, there will be no big demons in the Great Reed River, and the inexplicable deaths like before will not happen, and the fish and shrimp in the river will be edible from now on. β
"Look at this place, in the future this will be a big lake, the lake is deep, there are many fish, in the future you can rely on this place as a fisherman to feed your family, isn't this more comfortable than before?"
The common people knelt down one after another when they heard his loud voice: "I've seen the old immortals." β
"Meet the old gods. β
"Thank you, Lord Wang, for slaying demons!"
Wang Qilin waved them to get up.
Xie Toad flew down, and Wang Qilin asked him, "Dao Master, can you really ask for rain?"
"Isn't praying for rain my Taoist forte?" Xie Toad smiled lightly.
Fat four or five, who heard the news, suddenly showed a smile, a gloating, ill-intentioned smile-
The reason why Wang Qilin can judge his mind is because he crooked his mouth when he laughs, as long as people smile crookedly, they must not have good intentions!
Xie Toad looked at the green dogs and said, "Besides, with the green dogs here, why bother the old man to ask for rain? They can easily do it." β
Fat four or five hurriedly waved his hand: "If you can't do it, you can't do it, Master Dao, don't force Liang to be a prostitute." β
"You want to say that it is difficult for a strong man?" asked Xu Xiaoda.
Fat four or five blinked, and waved his hand again: "If you can't do it, you can't do it, Daoye, don't force Liang to be difficult for prostitutes and strongmen." β
Xie Toad said, "What do you mean? Asking for rain is not easy for you Qingyu clan?"
Fat four or five shook his head again and again: "We can't do it, we really can't do it." β
Eight Meow jumped up and nodded, then pointed at him and pointed to the sky, then ran to a dry sandy ground and pointed to the ground, and with a wave of his claws he dug a small hole, stretched out his tongue and licked it in the small hole, and suddenly fell to the ground, with straight limbs and a stiff tail.
He's dead!
Wang Qilin didn't understand what it meant: "Eight meows, what are you talking about?"
Eight Meow got up in frustration, its eyes wide, and suddenly tilted its head to look at the witch, and stared at her seriously.
Wu Wu subconsciously covered his chest: "What are you looking at?"
Eight meows pouted, it jumped up and scratched Xu Da's crotch and jumped higher and scratched Xu Da's chest.
Wu Wu suddenly shouted: "Eight meows are playing hooligans!"
Xu shouted: "Ouch, you are a hooligan, how can you play hooligan to your uncle? β
Wang Qilin is about to cry, what the hell is this, what kind of cat and who? Why is he suddenly playing?
He thought that Yameow was making trouble, and with a gloomy face, he was about to beat it.
Hachimeow lowered her head and sighed again.
Xu Da pondered for a moment and suddenly reacted: "Seventh Master, just now Eight Meow didn't want to take advantage of Uncle, did it want to tell us something?"
Eight Meow nodded hurriedly, nodding his head playfully.
The results of the perennial kowtow training came out, and it nodded and pointed out the afterimage.
Wang Qilin said: "What does it want to tell us, it will follow your chickens and Mimi - understood!"
"Chicken!" he cried.
"Big!" Xu shouted.
