Yuzhucheng was already in sight, Luo Jiangshang remembered the reason for leaving home in the first place, and his heart was lost, and the joy of going home was diluted a little.

Pay a few copper plates as a tax to enter the city.

The city is still as prosperous as it was a few months ago. But to Luo Jiangshang, the atmosphere of the surrounding environment is completely different.

The Luo family has silk and satin villages, grain and oil stores, and other workshops for making jewelry, etc., and these products have special styles and packaging.

However, now on the street, there are not many people wearing clothes produced by the Luo family, and the grain and oil carried by the people on their shoulders is not the trademark of the Luo family's grain and oil store, and even the young men and women wearing Luo family jewelry have become very rare.

What's going on?

Could it be that something has happened to the Luo family?

Luo Jiangshang was taken aback by his own idea, there are four wealthy families in Yuzhu City, the Jin family raises silkworms, the Tang family does grain, oil, tea and other businesses, the city lord Ye is in charge of the military camp and iron products in the city, and the rest are run by the Luo family, whether it is the Jin family's silkworm raising, Tang's grain, oil and tea, and other daily necessities.

In this way, walking into a tavern with Luo Zi at the beginning, Luo Jiangshang wanted to inquire about what had happened in the city in the past few months, so as to prepare for going home.

"Xiao Er, bring me sweet wine and good food!"

When he saw that Luo Jiangshang was wearing sackcloth, he had an extraordinary temperament, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he promised "Okay!" and went to the back hall to order.

This little second doesn't know his own owner, he only knows that this is the Luo family's property, and he can recognize a few masters and young masters at most, but he is not very familiar with the third son, who doesn't move around often, and he can't even recognize it.

Luo Jiangshang was not angry, this is human nature, who can recognize the Luo family's family of four or five hundred people?

After all, in the service industry, as long as you are content with your duties and skilled in business, it is enough.

It's still early for lunch, and there are no customers in the restaurant.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Luo Jiangshang's table was full of four or five special side dishes, such as vinegar, sweet and sour, and silky, all of which were the classic dishes of Luo's Restaurant.

The drinks have also been served, and Xiao Er said "You use it slowly!" and prepared to leave.

was stopped by Luo Jiangshang, and a silver ingot of two taels was placed on the table.

"Little second brother, let me ask you a few questions, and I hope to tell you the truth. ”

The fixed income of the running hall is not high, that is, dozens of copper plates per month, and more money comes from guest rewards.

But the average guest will give a few copper coins at most, like Luo Jiangshang, it is really rare to be in silver as soon as he makes a move. The second brother couldn't help but look straight, and sighed in his heart that he was lucky, and when he met a financier, he also had money to treat his mother's illness this month, and he could also buy a new dress for his little sister.

"Guest, if you have anything to ask, you must know everything. ”

"I haven't been to Chongqing for two or three months, how has the style of dressing on the street changed? Although it used to be silk and satin, linen cloth robes, the color was plain, and the style was more simple, but now everyone is complicated and diverse, is it because the people's income has become higher, so they can't look down on plain clothes?"

Who knows, Xiao Er sighed after hearing this.

"The guest officer didn't know, the clothing, food, housing and transportation of Chongqing City were originally the world of my host Luo's family, just because Luo's ancestors were divided, half of the fields outside the city were Luo's industry, and Luo's also made a fortune from this, but this year it looks like the harvest is coming, but the drought has been in place for months, the crops have died, the spring silkworms have not eaten, and they have not spit out any silk, so the two Jintang families have joined forces to monopolize foreign substances, coupled with the connivance of the city lord, my host has no raw materials, and it has become what it is today. ”

It's big or small.

At the beginning of the drought, the Luo family reacted in time, and the Jintang family would not take the lead. Coupled with the fact that the city lord monopolizes the market and turns a blind eye. In the long run, when the people in the city get used to the goods of the Jin family and the Tang family, the Luo family will really not be able to get up.

It's nothing more than a heavy rain, and this matter can be solved.

Luo Jiangshang was angry in his heart, this Ye City Lord is really a small-bellied chicken intestine, didn't he just escape the marriage of the eldest lady of the Ye family?

But now that the royal family is in decline, the city guards in various places have become independent, and the Ye family is also one of them, and the private army has 50,000, so that the royal family does not dare to act rashly.

The Luo family wants to restore the past, but there is no other way than to pray that it will rain.

This is a big family that depends on the sky for food.

"Thanks, little second brother. ”

'Smack'

With a bang, Luo Jiangshang left another tael of silver as wine, didn't eat a bite of the food on the table, got up and left.

It's not that difficult to simply ask for rain.

The way to return to Tibet, the six side gates, the three thousand left roads, and the way to ask for rain, to say the least, there are more than ten or twenty kinds. Just the Left Path Five Elements Escape Technique, there is a technique of condensing the water vapor in the air and creating water out of thin air.

However, the rain is a large-scale precipitation, and Luo Jiangshang still has to prepare well.

Ascending can see far, and in the same way, ascending can reach the sky.

Asking for rain is a thing that needs to be done through the sky.

Outside the city of Chongqing, the highest place is the high mountain on which the west of the city depends. Built on the mountain, when the top of the mountain. This high mountain is called Sheyan Mountain, and the highest part of the main peak is 700 zhang, reaching the sky. Because of the steepness of the mountain, no one has reached the top of the mountain, whether it is Orion or other martial arts masters.

There is a unique scenery at the top of the Yanluo Peak, the blue sky is thousands of miles, the sun is slanting in the west, and you can also feel the heat and dryness brought by the drought to the earth in the past few months.

Luo Jiangshang may be the first person who will be the top in thousands of years.

According to the Guizang Immortal Classics, there is a heaven outside the sky, but there is no heavenly court that rules all worlds, and there is no god in charge of everything. Therefore, we can only rely on ourselves for all the difficult things in the world. Luo Jiangshang did not want to ask for rain from the sky, but to make rain out of thin air. However, such dry air brought great difficulties to Luo Jiangshang's operation.

Rain comes from the earth, water vapor rises into clouds, and water vapor descends into rain.

Luo Jiangshang was ready to cast a spell.

He began to pinch the Dharma seal in his hand, and slowly spit out obscure syllables from his mouth, and the thin water vapor in the mountain air gradually gathered and turned into a white cloud. The cloud gradually expanded and became larger, and it could be lifted from the palm of his hand, to the size of an elephant, and Luo Jiangshang felt that the mana in his body was gradually exhausted.

The pill in the Guizang Cave was eaten by Luo Jiangshang not long ago, and he didn't have time to cultivate to refine a batch again, and now he can only stop casting spells and slowly recover his withered mana.

The white cloud was pulled by the last shred of mana and hid in the col to prevent it from being blown away by the wind.

After doing this a dozen times, it was getting late.

Luo Jiangshang was directly on the top of the mountain, facing east, meditating and cultivating.

When the sky showed the dawn and the first wisp of purple qi was absorbed into his body every day, Luo Jiangshang could feel the rapid growth of his cultivation, and a trace of enlightenment suddenly appeared in his heart.

Since his cultivation, Luo Jiangshang has done two good things.

rescued hundreds of people destined to die in the cottage, and invited the army to exterminate the zombies, preventing the catastrophe of the underworld. In addition, this time, it will make rain for the people of Yuzhucheng. So he lowered his merits and helped Luo Jiangshang improve his realm.

It turns out that saving the common people is a reward that can be obtained by the Heavenly Dao, and the merit that every person who cultivates immortals and seeks the Tao dreams of.

For more than ten days in a row, Luo Jiangshang made clouds and gathered rain on the Yanluo Peak, and the entire Sheyan Mountain, as long as it was a sheltered place, was stuffed with clouds.

As the operation progressed, the air around Yuzhu City became drier and drier.

Although the drought did not cause the people's grievances to boil, Ye finally realized the abnormality of the weather and invited the monk Tianshi to make an altar to pray for rain. The Jin family and the Tang family were angry in their hearts, and they didn't dare to provoke the tiger whiskers of the lord of a city.

I don't know how many fake Taoist priests and fake monks were blasted out of the city.

On this day, a very popular master took the stage, croaking and waving wildly, and the sky was suddenly shrouded in layers of black clouds, and the wind began to howl and rage.

Seeing that a heavy rain is about to fall.

It turned out that Luo Jiang was still compressing the clouds with mana on the Yanluo Peak, and the white clouds gradually turned black, like a rag that had been tightened, and water would drip out if the force continued.

These dark clouds were driven into the air one by one, stretching from Sheyan Mountain to dozens of miles away, covering the entire city and dependent territories of Chongqing.

Then, there was a thunderclap, and the drizzle turned into a torrential rain that spread across the sky.

The people inside and outside the city cheered and bowed down to the altar to thank the Heavenly Master for successfully praying for rain.

When Luo Jiangshang returned to the city, he saw such a scene.

"What a group of fools, they deserve to be deceived for a lifetime!"

Walking slowly all the way back to Luo's mansion, the gatekeeper will see Luo Jiangshang, his eyes widen in surprise, and he quickly ran to report to the mansion.

After a while, all the old and young in the Luo Mansion had come to the door.

The spirit of the old man at the head shone, and there was indescribable joy and joy in his eyes: "Shang'er is back! It's really double happiness, it seems that God treats my Luo family well." ”

The old man laughed, and Luo Jiangshang was also very happy and ran towards the old man.

"Grandpa, my grandson is back. ”

Not to mention the reunion of the three generations of the Luo family, how to be happy, there is a big mountain hundreds of miles away from Yuzhu City, no one knows the name of the mountain, and no one has even really seen this mountain. However, in this mysterious place, deep in the mountains, stands a group of palaces, resplendent in gold.

"Senior brother in charge, the disciples have come to report that it is pouring rain in Yuzhucheng today, I'm afraid it will ...... Our plans have changed. ”

The person who spoke was wearing a Taoist robe, with white eyebrows and long beards, and fairy bones, and he looked like he was a hundred years old, but he clasped his fists and saluted the young man who was no more than twenty years old, and called him a senior brother.

"How so?"

The head of the house was quite surprised, he was busy with affairs and cared little about worldly matters.

The Baimei Daoist thought for a moment and replied: "Maybe it was the righteous path that was passing by, and he saw the people's suffering, so he cast a spell to make it rain." ”

The righteous path scattered the cultivation, and the anger that was about to break out in the head of the head suddenly disappeared, and it is no wonder that others.

"That being the case, plan one will be abandoned, and it is good to use plan two instead, but this time the thousand-year opening ceremony of the immortal cultivation world, you must not mess it up, our Baixian Gate is not as brilliant as it was a thousand years ago, and now is the time when we urgently need to replenish fresh blood...... The new Nine Realms chessboard is about to appear, and the Immortal Cultivation Realm will set off a bloody storm, I just hope that my sect can continue to stand for a thousand years!"

"I will obey the order of my senior brother, and my junior brother will retire. ”

The white-eyed Taoist walked away quickly, and disappeared in a moment.
