Chapter 164: The Fish Dies, the Net Breaks
Saying that, Sun Buhan turned around and left, only took a step, and stopped in confusion: "Although you and I have long intended to promote the blood sacrifice to open the Dragon Palace, but the specific person may not be the prefect, and the speed is not so fast, it seems that someone is interfering here, do you know who it is?"
Speaking of this, the Tianji Demon frowned even more: "I can't see through this, I can't expose it, it's foggy, and I don't know who did it." ”
"Could it be the King of Shu?" Sun Buhan guessed, shook his head, stopped talking, and disappeared into the rain.
And in the courtyard, Su Ziji slept in the middle of the night, and when it was almost early in the morning, someone knocked on the door, and when he heard the voice, it was a wild man, although it was a little strange, but it was also clear that there was no major event, and it was impossible to disturb.
"Don't worry, I'll get up now. Su Ziji said, took a stick of incense, got dressed and came out, this is a three-in, three-out courtyard, although it is old, transferred to the living room, and saw the anxious wild people.
"What's the matter, so panicked, it's dawn, can't you say it again?" Su Ziji said teasingly, and yawned.
"The Fenghuan Dam has burst, and now the nearby counties have been flooded, including Linhua County!"
"How many casualties?" Su Ziji gasped and sobered up.
"Now it's almost winter, the water is not too big, the water is only three feet, the crops are flooded, and I am afraid that there will be a famine in the coming year. ”
"As for people, there should be no mass drowning, but the beggar who carried the news said that he saw people washed into the mud and disappeared with his own eyes. ”
Su Ziji's face turned pale: "Is this man-made, or natural?"
"I don't know, I really don't know. The wild Taoist also rarely showed a panicked look: "However, there is movement in the Qincha Mansion, it is said that the gate has been opened, and the officials have been notified, and they immediately went to the high platform, and the empty prisoner car rushed to the yamen." ”
"Chincha is going to kill someone. ”
Although he learned that the river dam had collapsed and flooded several counties, he knew that there must be something here, and Luo Pei would never give up.
But I didn't expect that Luo Pei would be so neat and sharp, and he would kill Huang Liangping as soon as it was dawn.
As for why he chose to be in Panlong Lake, when he learned that a high platform was established, Su Ziji guessed that Qin Cha was planning to worship the river god here - that is, Shuifu Longjun.
At present, this action made Su Ziji immediately think of the blood sacrifice that had occurred in the Wei Dynasty.
"Qin Cha plans to take the five officials of the imperial court as a sacrifice and sacrifice the dragon monarch by the lake?"
"The blood sacrifice has long been canceled, and the Zheng Dynasty does not like the people below to sacrifice to the demon gods, even if the sacrifices are held, they mostly worship the human gods. ”
"If this spreads, even if the flood is contained in the end, I am afraid that the imperial court will not be able to spare this Qincha. ”
"It's a bit like a fish is dead. ”
"Let's go immediately!" Thinking like this, Su Ziji had already turned back and told Ye Buregret about it.
"Husband, if you want to go, take me with you, and I'll go too!" Ye Buregret said.
"How can this be done? This is a murderous thing, what are you making a fuss about?" Su Ziji said in a deep voice, seeing that Ye Buregret had a worried face, obviously afraid that something would happen to him, and his heart softened again.
"It will definitely be very chaotic then, you are gone, I will still be distracted to look at you, this is not a good thing, killing people, you are not afraid of watching nightmares? ”
In fact, after the words blurted out, Ye Buregret was a little regretful.
At this moment, after listening to Su Ziji's words, she could only frown and advise: "Then you have to pay attention to safety and don't take risks." ”
Having said that, there was a faint uneasiness in my heart.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to take any chances. Touching her head, Su Ziji went out.
The wild Taoist was already waiting a little anxiously, and when he saw him come out, he immediately urged: "Childe, let's talk about getting on the ox cart." ”
There was an ox cart parked on the side of the road, and the teenagers who had come before were wearing robes and sitting in front of the car.
Su Ziji went up with the wild road talents, and the ox cart moved.
On the way, the wild Taoist added: "I asked people to keep an eye on Qincha, and found that he asked people to prepare some tribute overnight and sent them to the high platform near the lake." ”
"People kept an eye on the government and found that it was indeed the prefect Huang Liangping in the prisoner car, who was dragged out. ”
"This matter did not make a noise, although it was not deliberately to cover up the news, but to kill the five officials, the procedure would not be so short, and I noticed something different. ”
"Probably a blood sacrifice. Su Ziji said to the wild Daoist with his guess: "My guess is right, Qin Cha is afraid that he wants to open the Water Mansion and wake up the Dragon Monarch." ”
"How dare they do this?" the wild Daoist didn't guess this, but he didn't dare to think that a dignified person would be so bold.
Is it easy to open the water house?
Not to mention the five-grade prefect of this blood sacrifice, will it make the court angry.
Let's just say that the relationship between the human race and the demon race is subtle now, King Qi is bold and reckless, but he is just colluding with the demon clan in private, although the dragon monarch of Panlong Lake is the god who was canonized and sacrificed in the previous dynasty, which is different from the general monster, but after the establishment of this dynasty, the court has not publicly sacrificed to the dragon monarch, which can already explain the problem.
Luo Pei is not afraid of causing ruin if he does this?
Unless...... Luo Pei still has the power to eliminate the flood and make meritorious contributions.
Or, the King of Qi is powerful, and many of them are demon clans, this Luo Pei wants to contact the Dragon Palace, and the Dragon Palace is the lord of the demon clan, so he can offset the power of the King of Qi?
Is this fighting for the dragon for the king of Shu?
Su Ziji thought so, and when he saw the change in the expression of the wild Taoist, he sighed: "Today, I'm afraid something big will happen." ”
"In fact, even if it is a demon clan, it may not be willing for the Dragon Monarch to appear at this time. The wild man nodded.
It's like the division of princes in troubled times, the conquests in various places are continuous, the big fish eat the small fish, the people are miserable, and they are not guaranteed, but if they want these big and small princes to return to the time when the Son of Heaven ruled the world wisely, they may not be willing to do so, unless the person who ends the war and unifies the world is himself.
For the current demon clan, it may be the same.
The Demon Emperor fell, no one obeyed anyone, and each ethnic group established itself as the king.
Isn't that the case with the water monster?
The dragon monarch is gone, and the water demons have become a tyrant, and they miss the time when the demon clan was prosperous, but let them bow down to a new lord and worship him as the king, they may not be convinced.
Su Ziji thought about it, and suddenly he was stunned, opened the curtain of the car, and there was cold rain slanting slantingly, with a chill, but he didn't care, just looked ahead, watched quietly, and put down the curtain for a long time.
"Childe, what's wrong?"
"It's nothing, we're already moving fast, I don't want anyone to move more, there are at least ten ox carts in front of us. ”
Su Ziji said, in fact, his Panlong Mental Method was born in the Dragon Palace, and there were several demonic qi flying towards Panlong Lake, and sure enough, this matter made the demon clan unable to sit still.
"It's here. Just thinking about it, the young man who was driving the cart in front of him said something in a whisper, and the ox cart slowly stopped.
"You stay here, and I'll go with my son. The wild man said to the young man, and as he spoke, he quickly got out of the car and left.
