Chen Junmei pointed to the valley and said, "Everyone, look at the valley bottom." ”

At this time, everyone got out of the carriage and looked at the valley, only to see that the clouds in the valley were as light as cotton, and began to spread in the valley, and the carriage of the caravan in front of them was also hidden in the mist, and only a vague figure could be distinguished.

Ruxuan suddenly became nervous and said, "When you sit and watch the clouds rise, Brother Liu, the criticism has come true!"

Liu Huaiyong also looked back at Liu Banxian with a little doubt, and said, "Old man, what do you think?"

Liu Banxian also looked solemn and said: "Water poverty has appeared, Yunqi has also appeared, the criticism should be fulfilled, we can't go, just sit here and watch Yunqi according to the criticism." ”

Everyone seemed a little nervous, and looked motionless into the valley, watching the clouds and mist continue to fill, and occasionally the sound of the jolting of the carriage in front of them was heard echoing in the valley, which was particularly eye-catching.

After an hour, the sky gradually darkened, and the carriage in front of it also reached the bottom of the valley, and was about to cross the stone bridge, but still nothing happened, and Liu Huaiyong seemed to start to feel that it was just a false alarm again.

At this moment, there was a rumbling sound in the valley, the sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, and it seemed to shake the entire valley, and everyone's hearts instantly rose to their throats, and their eyes stared at the valley with their eyes, and then Ruxuan screamed with an infinitely frightened voice: "Flood!" At the same time, his hand pointed to the depths of the valley.

Everyone looked in the direction of Ruxuan's finger, and in an instant everyone's faces changed - flood! monstrous flood! Like ten thousand horses galloping, roaring towards the valley, they rushed to the location of the stone bridge in an instant, and the caravan carriage was swept away by the flood before they could run for their lives, and they disappeared without even hearing the desperate neighing of the horses.

Liu Huaiyong and the others were all frightened by the violent flood and stood motionless on the ground, while Anya was so frightened that she cried, Ruxuan even began to tremble with her feet and collapsed in Liu Huaiyong's arms. Liu Huai never dared to imagine that if they encountered this flood, I am afraid that no one would be able to survive, and everyone felt a chill in their backs when they thought about it.

The flood came and went as fast as it came, and with a bowl of tea, the river returned to its normal water level, just where the mud imprinted. The flood has passed, but Liu Huaiyong and the others are still shocked, Liu Banxian has the most experience, has seen the most of the world, and was the first to calm down from the panic, he said loudly: "Hurry down and save people!"

Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei reacted from the panic at this time, and hurriedly flew towards the river valley, and the two ran along the direction of the flood for more than ten miles, only to find some broken wood from the carriage sporadically, and then found the corpses of several horses on a river beach, but the people were washed away without a trace, Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei saw that they had searched for more than ten miles, but they could not find the body, and it was estimated that there was no possibility of survival, so they had to fly back again.

When Liu Banxian saw Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei coming back, Liu Banxian hurriedly asked, "Have you saved anyone?"

Liu Huaiyong shook his head and said, "We searched for more than ten miles, but we only found the corpses of the horses, and the people had long been washed away without a trace. ”

When everyone heard this, their hearts seemed to be a little heavy, because everyone seemed to feel that these people were dying for them, everyone was silent, and after a while, Liu Banxian said again: "Liu Huaiyong, you and Chen Junmei will go upstream to check again, and see if this flood is a natural disaster, or **?"

Like a ghost cry in the dark, so that the already depressed atmosphere is a little more afraid, relying on Liu Banxian's clever calculation, everyone can pick up a life, now everyone is obedient to Liu Banxian's words, Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei nodded, and then raised the saber to fly to the upstream of the river, flying less than three miles, Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei saw a huge dam in the river valley, but there was a huge gap in the middle of the embankment, Liu Huaiyong and Shui Tao were shocked, hurriedly flew to the dam, Liu Huaiyong carefully looked at the gap, the gap of the dam is ten meters high, and the huge stone was washed away on both sidesThe roaring river gushes down the narrow valley, and the slope of the valley is large, and the impact and destructive power produced by it can be imagined.

Chen Junmei looked at half of the salary, but she didn't seem to see the reason, so she asked Liu Huaiyong: "Uncle Liu, have you found anything?"

Liu Huaiyong pointed to a huge stone in the river and said: "This is a load-bearing stone, and the load-bearing stone collapsed, which caused the dam to burst." ”

"Uncle Liu, can you see that this is artificial?" Chen Junmei continued to ask.

Liu Huaiyong shook his head and said: "If this load-bearing stone is broken, you can judge whether it was blown up by someone by looking at its cracks, but now that this load-bearing stone is intact, it is impossible to judge whether it is man-made or in disrepair and washed out." ”

Chen Junmei didn't know anything about the structure of the dam, but she didn't find any other abnormalities, just nodded, didn't speak, and Liu Huaiyong continued: "It's getting late, let's go back and tell Mr. Liu what we have seen, he is well-informed, and may be able to deduce some clues." ”

Chen Junmei nodded, and the two of them flew back with their edges. Chen Junmei and Liu Huaiyong were in the air, gradually turning into a black shadow and disappearing into the night. At this time, a person walked out of the forest by the dam, kicked the ground in anger, and said viciously: "I actually let the fog block it, I recognized the wrong person, and it is your fate!" After speaking, he went in the opposite direction and disappeared into the night.

At this time, Liu Banxian and others had already lit a bonfire, everyone sat around the bonfire, seeing Liu Huaiyong and Chen Junmei coming back, everyone stepped forward to surround the two, Liu Huaiyong signaled to everyone, and then walked to Liu Banxian and said: "Three miles upstream, there is a dam bursting!"

"Have you found out what the reason is?" asked Liu Banxian.

"When the load-bearing stones were loosened, the dam burst, but I couldn't tell if it was man-made or natural," Mr. Liu said.

After Liu Banxian listened, he didn't speak again, and then Ruxuan said in a tone of anxiety: "Old man, can you tell if it's a natural disaster or **?"

Liu Banxian shook his head and said: "This hexagram is not prompted, so I don't know whether it is a natural disaster or **, I just asked Liu Huaiyong to check it out based on my years of experience in walking the rivers and lakes, to see if I can find out whether it is a natural disaster or **." ”

"What about that disaster, and what about it?" asked Chen Junmei with a hint of puzzlement.

Liu Banxian smiled and said: "If it is a natural disaster, then there should be no more accidents before arriving at the destination, but if it is **, we have to be careful in the future." ”

Liu Huaiyong laughed, making everyone laugh a little confused, and then Liu Huaiyong said: "There is an old gentleman, whether he is a natural disaster or **, just come again, get a comment or something, isn't it?"

Everyone also felt that Liu Huaiyong's words were very true, and they all nodded and looked at Liu Banxian. Liu Banxian sighed and said, "You don't know, our ancestors have passed down a rule that if someone has a fateful hexagram, then you have to shut up the hexagram for a year." ”

Ruxuan asked a little puzzled, "What is the fate?"

Liu Banxian said: "The fate hexagram is when someone picks up a life from the hexagram. After Liu Banxian finished speaking, he glanced at Liu Huaiyong and continued: "If you encounter the flood just now, can you run away?"

Liu Huaiyong thought for a while, as if he was recalling the flood just now, and after a while, Liu Huaiyong said: "At that time, the white fog was vast, and the light in the valley was insufficient, if I found the flood, I am afraid it would be too late to escape." As soon as these words came out, everyone sighed in their hearts, but they didn't expect Liu Banxian's seemingly joking hexagram to save everyone's lives.

Liu Banxian said: "This hanging not only saved one person's life, but also saved everyone's life, and there was a fate hexagram in everyone, so I can't count it for everyone present within this year." ”

Ruxuan still seemed a little unwilling, and asked, "Why can't you count it anymore?" Everyone seemed to be very interested in this question, and they all turned their heads to look at Liu Banxian.

Liu Banxian glanced at everyone and said: "All things in this heaven have their own fate, all the fates are combined, and they promote the development of this world, if someone picks up a life because of divination, it is to change their own life, a change in the number of lives, maybe it will affect the development of the whole world, and change the life against the sky, which is absolutely not tolerated by heaven and earth, so the ancestors passed down a rule, whoever has a life hexagram must close the hexagram for a year, so as not to affect the number of lives of heaven and earth." ”

When Ruxuan heard this, she seemed to be a little unable to control her emotions, and said with a crying voice: "If you close the hexagram, what will Brother Liu do in the future?"

Ruxuan's words made everyone a little stunned, and then Liu Banxian laughed and said: "Liu Huaiyong's disaster is still less, didn't he also break through if no one told him a hexagram, a hexagram is accurate, from now on, everything will be pinned on divination, that person will not become a walking corpse when he is alive, and you will do whatever the hexagram tells you to do!"

Liu Huaiyong also stepped forward to comfort Ruxuan and said: "We have all rushed over the wind and waves, are you still afraid of this little thing, if you are panicked because you don't know what will happen tomorrow, then I am afraid that no one in this world can feel at ease." ”

Ruxuan also seemed to feel that she had lost her temper just now, wiped her tears, ran back to the carriage and hid, everyone also smiled, and went back to rest.

Wu Qian's carriage continued to travel north, and the late autumn sun shone on the carriage, leaving a long shadow, as if pulling Wu Qian.
