Chapter 62: The Elephant Falls into the Sea and Becomes a Dolphin
King Okama led a large herd of Okama elephants to rush to the construction site of the flood control. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I saw that the king of the elephant had a rotten silver and gold crown on his head, wearing a black cloak, and wielding a rotten silver pestle in his hand, rushing to the forefront, and the two brothers of the Feng Feng and Feng Feng were on the left and right, and the rest of the minions were running around, running around behind the king of the Gang Xiang, with no order, no order, and no formation at all.
Gengchen, one of the four heavenly generals, came back first to report the news, and the remaining three heavenly generals saw that the enemy could not stop them, so they also returned to Dayu's side in the clouds.
Dayu instructed the four generals to lead 500 soldiers to retreat to both sides, not to clash head-on with the elephants, but to wait for the opportunity to kill the enemy on both sides, and to chase and kill those backward and scattered stragglers in the back.
The four heavenly generals and Ying Long killed the enemy in the air. Dayu himself stood in place like an iron tower, ready to meet the king of Gangxiang.
King Gang Xiang rushed to Dayu, and the Feng Feng next to him pointed at Dayu and said: "King, this person is Dayu." King Gang Xiang looked down and saw that Dayu was not as tall as his calf. Then "hahaha" laughed and said: "You blew Dayu to be a god, I thought it was a giant who stood up to the sky, I saw it today, it turned out to be a mortal, haha, I want him to taste the silver pestle of the king." ”
Before the words fell, the rotten silver pestle in his hand had already smashed down on the top of Dayu's head. Dayu saw that the king of Gangxiang was a behemoth, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he clenched the axe of opening the mountain with both hands, and carried the Yellow Emperor mixed Yuan Gong, and struggled to meet it. I only heard a loud "bang" in mid-air, and the mountain god axe knocked the rotten silver pestle back. King Gang Xiang only felt that his arms were numb and his chest was hot, and he took several steps back before he stood still, holding the rotten silver pestle on the ground with both hands and panting. While looking down at Dayu, a mortal, in a daze.
Dayu didn't wait for the king of the elephant to pant evenly, so he jumped into the air from a high altitude, picked up the mountain god axe with both hands and slashed at the head of the king of the elephant. The king of the elephant could not take any breath, and hurriedly raised the rotten silver pestle to meet it, only to hear the sound of the axe hanging in the wind, and slashed straight towards the rotten silver pestle, and with a loud click, the rotten silver pestle was split in half. King Okama looked down and saw that he was holding half a silver pestle in each of his hands. At this time, Dayu's second axe was raised again, only to frighten the king of the elephant "wow" a strange cry, and threw the half of the silver pestle held in both hands to Dayu together. He himself lowered his head and ran over, so frightened that he didn't dare to look back, and walked through Dayu's camp like a smoke, and fled back in a big circle.
Feng Feng, Feng Feng and the two brothers, when they saw that the King of Gang Xiang was defeated, they were also so frightened that they howled and fled all the way with the King of Gang Xiang.
However, it is said that among the minions, only a few leaders have become spirits because of chance, and most of the rest of the minions have not become spirits and have not made any mistakes, at best they are just a beast full of wildness, and they will only arch people, bump people, trample people, and win by many.
Ying Long grabbed the small leaders of the elephant in mid-air, grabbed one, threw it down in mid-air, and fell to death.
In the air, the four heavenly generals specially targeted the elephant that had become a spirit, stabbed with guns, poked, whipped, and hammered, and almost wiped out the leaders of the elephant who had become a spirit.
The four generals led 500 soldiers, and they chose to fight the lone and the stragglers, and also overthrew many elephant minions.
When Shennongzi came to the front of the elephant herd, he got into the soil, felt very depressed after a long time, found a vacancy, and wanted to drill his head out of the ground to breathe, just when he just drilled out of the ground, suddenly rushed over a wild boar, Shennongzi did not care, pulled out the dagger, unexpectedly poked into the heart of the wild boar, the wild boar snorted, one fell to the ground, kicked the legs, and the eyes rolled and died. Shennongzi slipped into the ground again.
The elephant herd had been making a fuss for a long time, and finally all of them disappeared except for those who were thrown to the ground. People came out of hiding places, and then saw that the construction site of the flood control had been trampled to a pulp. The campsite has been razed to the ground. A second count of the number of people showed that only 200 or 300 people were injured of varying severity, but not a single person died. The injuries were all from elephants and wild boars, trampled on them, and arched. Some are fractured, some are dislocated, and some are contusions. The rest is just bruising and swollen flesh.
Counting the fallen elephants and wild boars, there are 1,800 in all. The army of water control won a complete victory.
Dayu gave an order: "Shennongzi is responsible for treating the wounded, and Boyi, Pythagorean, Jiuzhang, Tu Jiao, etc. assist Shennongzai." "Shennongzi looked for a few herbs in the nearby mountains, handed them to Boyi, Pythagorean, and Jiuzhang, let them take the appearance, and then go and find some more, and asked Sister Tu Jiao to chop and mash some of them as external dressing for the wounded. The other part is boiled into soup in a pot and given to the wounded internally. After Shennongzi finished arranging, he started to heal the wounded. A good Shennongzi, after seeing the wounded, asked about the injured part, if there is a fracture, gently pinch (lv) with his hand, and immediately continue the broken bone. If there is a dislocation, gently touch one end with your hand to restore the staggered loop to its original position. If there is bruising, take a breath and gently rub it with your hand to reduce the swelling.
Two or three hundred wounded people lined up in a horizontal line, and Shennongzi walked from one end to the other. It didn't take an hour to treat all the wounded. Before the treatment, the wounded were all screaming in pain. After the treatment, the wounded immediately stopped being in pain, and they all went to Tu Jiao's side to apply medicine and drink medicine.
Dayu ordered the rest of the people to rebuild the camp that would be leveled by elephants and wild boars. The tents that had fallen down were erected again, the pots and stoves that had collapsed were rebuilt, and the pots, bowls, scoops, and basins that had been broken were repaired and repaired, and some were repurchased at the bazaar.
Seeing the elephants and wild boars that had been thrown down all over the ground, the cooks in each battalion who were responsible for making rice were broken. It's rare to see a little meat in the kitchen of a water control site, but this time it's good. This door-to-door game can be feasted upon.
The cooks dragged the elephants and wild boars back to the kitchen, skinned them, gutted the meat, chopped the meat into large pieces, and stewed them in a large pot. When it was time for dinner, all the people on the construction site had a delicious meal of large pieces of meat. The elephant has thick skin and coarse meat, and it is not as delicious as wild boar, but it is also meat after all, and it is better than vegetables and turnips.
There are too many elephants and wild boars that were knocked down by Dayu, four heavenly generals, four generals and five hundred soldiers, more than 20,000 people on the construction site, three or five days can not be eaten, so the cooks made bacon from the meat that can not be eaten, and kept it for eating in the future.
Dayu sent Zhuhai and brought a few pieces of bacon to the imperial capital, dedicated to Di Yao and Di Shun, and let them taste the game that was sent to the door. In addition, reporting to them the performance of water control at this stage also made Di Yao and Da Shun happy.
Let's talk about King Okama. Yu picked up the mountain god axe, an axe will be his own unique blade thousand pounds of "rotten silver pestle", from the middle of a split in half, the head melon was almost not opened by Dayu, frightened like the soul of the king flew out, the two halves of the silver pestle held in both hands were thrown to Dayu, taking advantage of Dayu's dodging wage, howling and running over, even the head did not dare to go back, and he has been stepping on Dayu's water control site. It wasn't until he ran out that he made a big turn and fled back to his own nest on the mainland.
The Feng Feng and Feng Feng brothers followed closely and also fled back, and in the end, those minions who were lucky enough to survive also fled back to their nests one after another, counting the number of people and losing thousands of sons.
King Gangxiang was annoyed, screaming nonsense, hating Dayu in his heart. When I mentioned the confrontation just now, I still had lingering palpitations. I can't imagine that Dayu is just a small mortal, but he has such amazing divine power. Fight it, but you can't beat people, if you don't fight, you can't swallow this breath. But you can't watch Dayu bully the door.
When he was at a loss, Feng Feng came to him and offered advice: "Don't disturb the king, in my opinion, we only suffer a loss today because of our underestimation of Dayu." I haven't seen him for a few years, and Dayu has grown a lot of skills, not only four generals have come to help in the war, but also one more Ying Long by his side.
Next time, as long as we plan carefully, we will make the most of our strengths and avoid our weaknesses, and be surprised. will definitely defeat Dayu and expel Dayu from Jiuhe. ”
When King Gang Xiang heard Feng Feng say this, he immediately came to his spirit again. He asked, "What kind of planning, how do you make the most of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses?" How do you take it by surprise? ”
Feng Feng said: "I'll start by saying that this is to promote strengths and avoid weaknesses. We are in the dark, it is long, Dayu is in the light, it is short. But this is not enough, dispatching at night is our strength, but it is a disadvantage for mortals like Dayu. Let's take it by surprise again. That is, we should not provoke Dayu again for the time being, and create an illusion for Dayu. Let him think that we have been beaten by him, and will never dare to trouble him again. When Dayu relaxed his vigilance, then we will go out in one fell swoop, but we can win the battle. The third is that we sent a detailed work to listen to Dayu's movements and find out the exact place where Dayu camped at night. When the time comes, we quietly sneak from the reeds to Dayu's camp, and when Dayu's men and horses fall asleep, we give an order, tens of thousands of children act together, and you can step on Dayu's camp in an instant, and Dayu will be trampled into a meatloaf. ”
After listening to Feng Feng's plan, King Gang Xiang patted his thigh and said, "Good plan, good plan, just do what you say." It's all up to you. ”
Let's talk about Dayu's side, the next day as usual to start digging the river to control the water. Everything is as usual, but Dayu knows very well in his heart: it is he who dug the river to control the water, dredged the flood in the mainland, and made the wild boars and elephants living in the mainland panic, so he wanted to destroy the water control. Today's fact that they came to make trouble is just the beginning, and if they are not completely eliminated, digging rivers and controlling water will not go smoothly, and sooner or later they will come out to make trouble. Thinking of this, Dayu shouted into the air: "Where is Ying Long?"
As soon as the words fell, Ying Long appeared in front of Dayu's eyes, and replied: "Ying Long is here, I don't know what Chongbo commands?"
Dayu said: "You can hide and hide, go to the mainland in the center of the Nine Rivers, listen to the movements of the King of Gangxiang, and don't alarm them, go!"
Ying Long responded: "De Ling" disappeared in a blink of an eye.
In the dripping cave of the mainland, Feng Feng is planning with the king of Gangxiang to lead all the Gangxiang to level the Dayu camp. Ying Long turned into a four-legged snake, lying on the wall of the dripping hole, and listened clearly, from then on, Ying Long will find out the situation every day, report to Dayu.
Dayu knows the movements of King Gang Xiang every day. But he didn't show his face, and he still fought every day on the construction site of digging the river and controlling the water. It was only every three or five days that the campsite was moved to the east coast.
In a flash, a month had passed, and on this day, the army had moved its tent to a cliff near the East China Sea. It is bordered by the mainland to the west, and the sea is at the bottom of the cliff.
In recent days, the heavenly generals have come to report several times, and found that there are elephants and wild boars sneaky, and probes to come to the camp to spy on them, and Dayu told them to pretend not to see it, and not to alarm the spies of the king of Gangxiang.
This morning, Ying Long came back to report: "Report to Chongbo, the army of Gangxiang will come to camp in the middle of the night today, in the dead of night. About 50,000 horses, led by the king of the elephants and the brothers of Feng Feng and Feng Feng, were heading into the reeds and gathering near our camp. ”
After a short while, the four heavenly generals also came back to report, and said: "I found a large number of elephants and wild boars, hiding in the reeds and approaching our camp, all ten miles away from the camp, lurking, as if they had a big action against our camp. ”
Dayu did not panic when he heard these reports, but just led the water control army to dig the river and control the water as usual, and did not reveal the slightest news about Gangxiang to the people. In the evening, I finished work and went back to the camp for dinner. The people fell asleep as usual.
At this time, Dayu called Xuangong, Huang Ge, Changxin, and Zhuhai to him, and instructed: "After the second watch in the middle of the night today, the four of you led 500 soldiers and 20,000 people to quietly raise the camp, and did not make a sound, and retreated ten miles to the north and south sides to hide. When it is dawn, return to the camp. Buried the pot to make rice, and after breakfast, continued to dig the river to control the water. ”
After receiving the order, Chang Xin, Zhu Hai, Xuan Gong, and Huang Ge went back to prepare separately.
Just after the second watch, I saw that the soldiers and men in the camp walked out of the camp tents one after another, quietly rolled up their tents, and withdrew to the north and south sides of the camp. There was no sound.
Dayu ordered the four heavenly generals to rise into the air and observe the movement back and forth. He led Boyi, Pythagorean, Jiuzhang, Tu Demon and Shennongzai. I came to a high ground by the East China Sea, ready to watch a good play directed by myself.
Time passed, moment by moment, and people held their breath and watched in the direction of the camp. Just after midnight, I heard a thunderous roar in the distance, "Sons, rush." Immediately afterward, a myriad of voices were heard in unison, rolling over the camp like thunder. In an instant, there was the sound of the shaking of the earth like the shaking of the mountain. I saw countless huge black shadows rushing out of the reeds, running forward like a whirlwind, and at the forefront were the king of the elephant and the sealed pig and the sealed pig.
King Okama aimed at the route he had explored during the day, and kept running ahead. But I should have arrived at the location of the camp, but there was no tent, and the king of Gang Xiang thought secretly: It must be his own heart to set foot in the camp, and Dayu's camp must still be ahead. So he lowered his head, put his legs hard, and rushed forward in one breath.
Unexpectedly, when he was running forward, he suddenly stepped on the air with both feet, and an upside-down onion fell off the cliff. After opening his head a few times in the air, he plunged into the East China Sea with a "plop".
The two brothers, Feng Feng and Feng Feng, also "plopped" and "plopped" into the East China Sea with the heels of Gang Xiang Daii.
The elephant minions and the wild boar minions followed behind the elephant king, and they all fell off the cliff and plunged into the Great East China Sea. It was like putting a hinge into a pot, and the sound of falling into the sea water "plop" and "plop" rang out.
After an hour, calm returned to the camp, and all the elephants and wild boars that had come to camp fell into the East China Sea, and there was not a single one left.
At this time, a red sun jumped out of the sea, illuminating the earth, and in the middle of the night, the soldiers and men who had withdrawn to the two sides returned to the camp under the leadership of the four mortal generals, and buried the pot to make food.
He saw that the camp was full of hoof prints of elephants and wild boars, but there was not a single elephant or boar, and he felt strange. Someone followed the trail to the edge of the cliff on the east coast and looked into the East China Sea. I saw countless elephants and wild boars floating on the black surface of the sea. Although they fell into the sea for a long time, they were not drowned in the sea. It turns out that both the elephant and the wild boar are master swimmers who live in swampy waters, and each of them can swim, so they will not drown for a while after falling into the water.
Dayu also led the four generals and all the little brothers, Tu Jiao and Ying Long to the edge of the cliff to watch. I saw that within a radius of ten miles, the elephants and wild boars were all playing dog planing in the seawater, sinking and floating on the sea, and the situation was magnificent.
Dayu suddenly looked up and saw a yellow cloud rising in the East China Sea, only to see the yellow cloud floating towards Dayu like an arrow. Huang Yun came to the front, and Dayu saw it clearly. It turned out to be the god of the Great Eastern Sea-Yu Hao, with a human-faced bird body and two yellow snakes on his feet. A small yellow snake with a small yellow snake hanging from each ear appeared in front of him.
Dayu bowed his hand and saluted, and said: "Dadong Sea God, don't come unharmed." ”
Dadonghai Haijun also replied: "Dayu, can the water control project always be smooth?"
Dayu replied: "With the great help of the Great East Sea Shenjun, I sent Ying Long Zuo to control the water, so it went smoothly for a while." No, recently, wild boars and elephants from the mainland have come to make trouble, and they want to level my camp and trample us into meat cakes. With that, he pointed to the elephant and the wild boar floating on the surface of the sea.
Dadonghai Shenjun laughed and said: "Dayu is really brave and strategic, dealing with these bigwigs with rough skin and thick flesh, it is not okay to touch them hard, or to outwit them, they are so aggressive, they are indispensable, and they are not planted into the East China Sea by your little tricks, haha, haha." ”
Dayu asked: "I don't know what the Great East Sea God Monarch came to teach today?"
The Great Eastern Sea God Monarch said: "I am here to save these elephants and wild boars that have fallen into the water. ”
Dayu was stunned for a moment and asked, "What? Do you want to save these guys? Do you want to let them go ashore and make trouble again?"
Dadong Haijun said: "This group of elephants and wild boars are all indigenous people in the mainland, and they have lived and multiplied there for generations, eating acorns, water chestnuts, lotus roots, taro, and occasionally fish and shrimp, crabs and small insects. and human well water does not interfere with river water. It's just that you have conquered the water to the Nine Rivers and dredged the stagnant water in the mainland into the East China Sea, and they are afraid that you will drain the water from the mainland that they rely on for survival, so they will come to your water control site to make trouble.
I don't think it's a big deal to think of these elephants and wild boars, but it's just a fight against humans to defend their homeland. Now that they have been lured into the East China Sea by your tricks, they have lost the ability to fight. If you drown in the East China Sea, you will be cruel. Moreover, in my thousands of miles of the East China Sea, although there are fish, shrimp, chela, turtles, octopus, and seahorses. But these are cold-blooded animals. It's just the lack of some hot-blooded animals that grow up on breast milk and breathe with lungs. Today, these domestic elephants and wild boars have fallen into the East China Sea, which is also providential, and it is God who makes me add a little vitality to the East China Sea, and there are many kinds of hot-blooded animals. I'm going to change their form and turn their hands and feet into fins, so that they can adapt to life in the sea. Instead of eating lotus root acorns, eat fish and shrimp from the sea and sea baths. ”
After listening to the words of the Dadong Sea God, Dayu couldn't help but be convinced, and admired the benevolent heart of the Dadong Sea God from the bottom of his heart. said: "It's all up to the Great East Sea God Monarch to dispose of." ”
After hearing this, the Great Eastern Sea Divine Monarch stepped on two yellow snakes and rose into the air again, came to the top of the elephant and the wild boar, and said in a loud voice: "Listen to the elephant and the wild boar, I am the Great Eastern Sea Divine Monarch, and today I am here to save your life, from now on, all the elephants and wild boars that fall into the sea will turn into walruses, manatees, dolphins and seals." The larger ones turn into whales. Both dolphins and whales have nostrils that reach the top of their heads. ”
As soon as the words of the Great Eastern Sea God Monarch fell, those elephants and wild boars immediately felt as if they had been reborn, and swimming in the sea water immediately became relaxed. Swimming in the rough waters of the East China Sea is as easy as walking on land. When I looked down at my hands and feet, they had all turned into fins. The elephants, who had turned into whales, suddenly felt much more free to breathe, and their nostrils had moved to the top of the brain.
The boar turned into a dolphin, its two fangs receded, but its mouth became longer and sharper, like a bird's beak. It will definitely be more convenient to catch fish and eat in the future.
Tens of thousands of whales, walruses, manatees, dolphins, and seals cheered in unison: "Thank you Dadong Sea God Monarch for saving your life." After the cheers, they scrambled to swim into the depths of the East China Sea.
Dadong Sea God Jun came back to say goodbye to Dayu. said: "Chongbo is working hard to control the water, and this god is going back to the East China Sea." Dayu led the four heavenly generals, the four generals, as well as Boyi, Pythagorean, Jiuzhang, Tu Jiao, and Shennongzai, waved each other. The Great East Sea Shenjun stepped on two yellow snakes, drove a yellow cloud, and returned to the East China Sea.
Dayu led everyone back to the camp, buried the pot to make rice, and after eating enough, he began to dig the river to control the water.
Without the troubles of the elephants and wild boars, the water control project progressed rapidly. The control of the Nine Rivers started from the Tuxiao River and advanced from the south to the north. The Taishi River, the Madun River, the Fupu River, the Husu River, the Jian River, the Jie River, the Goupan River, and the Sujin River were dredged in turn, eliminating the floods stranded in the land of North China, so that the mainland Ze returned to the waters before the flood, and the descendants gave him a nice name again - Baiyangdian.
The news that the Yellow River, the Nine Rivers, and the floods on the North China Plain were leveled reached the imperial capital and the imperial court. Di Yao and Di Shun were overjoyed, and commended Dayu and his army for controlling the water. Because Dayu used to inherit his father's title, he added a Xia Bo title to Dayu. Since then, Dayu has been called Xia Bo.
