Liaozhai Great Sage

Du Chunhua replied carefully, she felt that she had no other thoughts in this life, she just wanted to serve this man well, being good to this man would be enough.

Soon, Li Xiuyuan was fully dressed, Liu Chunhua rested in the room, and went out alone.

"Young master." Seeing Li Xiuyuan walking out of the room, Lu Bo hastily cupped his hands and saluted.

Li Xiuyuan asked: "Uncle Lu, what happened, why are you so panicked?"

Lu Bo hurriedly said: "Young master, don't you know that all the people in the audience dreamed of a strange thing last night, and now the city is in chaos, and the yamen are alarmed."

"Is it a strange thing? Yesterday I slept until dawn, and nothing happened." Li Xiuyuan said.

Lu Bo said again: "It's like this. Yesterday I had a dream. I dreamed of the Dragon King of Wujiang. In the dream, the Dragon King of Wujiang said that his son died in Guobei City. Now he wants to vent his anger and it will rain heavily here. Thirty days."

"What, there is such a thing?" Li Xiuyuan was surprised.

"Yes, yes, not only the old slave had this dream, but also the old slave's son and daughter-in-law, and even the guards in the mansion also dreamed about it," Lu Bo said. .

Li Xiuyuan's expression froze immediately.

The Eight Great Kings said before that this matter was related to the Dragon King of Wujiang, but now it seems that it is true.

Last night, the Dragon King of Wujiang might have entrusted the people of the whole city with dreams.

However, this Guobei City is a big city, and there are at least 10,000+ people in the city. It is really terrible for the Taoism of the Dragon King of Wujiang to give dreams to the people of the whole city in one breath.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the torrential rain outside again, and couldn't help frowning: "This heavy rain will last for [-] days. The Wujiang Dragon King is not venting his anger. He is killing people. Such a heavy rain can accumulate in the city in just a few days." Water is everywhere, it will rain for [-] days, won’t there be floods everywhere? Now it’s the autumn harvest, and the food hasn’t entered the warehouse, if the rain continues, the people will definitely lose their harvest.”

"That's right, I'm afraid the master won't be able to harvest this year's grain." Lu Bo sighed.

"It doesn't matter if my family's food can't be harvested. It's just half a year's less money and food, and it won't hurt the bones. But other people may not be able to. They refuse to harvest, and the court has to collect taxes. The consequences will be serious. , or there will be trouble." Li Xiuyuan said.

He has been in this world for more than ten years, and he is very aware of how powerful the world's exorbitant taxes are.

Regardless of the prosperity of Guobeicheng County, it is because of the presence of the Li family. The exorbitant taxes from the imperial court cannot reach the tenant farmers of the Li family. In addition, the various workshops of the Li family have supported a large number of people, and the county has just now become prosperous. .

But wealthy businessmen in other places may not have such good intentions, and other wealthy businessmen don't know what it means to take from the people and use them for the people, and they are all misers.

So let alone the [-]-day torrential rain, even the [-]-day torrential rain will cause heavy losses to the people.

"What the young master said is very true. Now there is a commotion in Guobei City, and the people have come to the streets to hold sacrifices, trying to appease the anger of the Dragon Lord." Lu Bo said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "The Dragon King of Wujiang is angry because of the death of his son this time. It cannot be appeased by a simple sacrifice. Besides, he is the Dragon King of Wujiang, and he is a righteous god himself. He will not pay attention to mere incense."

"Lu Bo, let the guards come over, I'll go to the city to have a look."

"Yes, young master." Lu Bo replied.

Soon, Li Xiuyuan rode out with his guards and wearing coir raincoats.

The Wujiang Dragon King's [-]-day torrential rain seems to have nothing to do with him, but it cannot be ignored.

If it is true as what the Dragon King of Wujiang said, the flood will flood by then, even Guobei County will be unable to escape the flood, and it will be too late to take care of it at that time.

"Young Master, is there really a Dragon King in this world?"

On the way, the guard also said nervously.

Apparently they also had a dream last night, the Dragon King of Wujiang.

"Isn't this obvious? Besides, you two have seen the Wujiang Dragon King before. When you crossed the river to Guobei City, didn't you see that huge mullet in the river?"

Li Xiuyuan said, looking around the street at the same time, but saw that every household had opened the door, burned incense and kowtowed in front of the door, praying for the Dragon King of Wujiang to calm his anger and stop the rainstorm.

Although the people kowtowed to pray for sincerity, he knew it was useless.

"The young master said that the big black fish is the Dragon King of Wujiang. How is this possible? The Dragon King of Wujiang is a black fish?" The guard was shocked.

"The black fish is just an illusion for mortals to see. The Dragon King of Wujiang is actually a black flood dragon, and he is also a righteous god granted by the Heavenly Palace. The name of the Dragon King of Wujiang is also real, but today's actions are a bit too much. Righteous God, you should bless one side with good weather, how can you harm all people in a single anger."

Li Xiuyuan said.

"Furthermore, his son's death should be resented by grievances and revenge. How can other people be involved? Even if the people kill people, the court will not be punished."

"Young master is right."

Li Xiuyuan raised his head and looked at the thick dark cloud, no matter how much rain it rained, it could not dissipate the dark cloud: "Besides, the gods are worthy of people's worship only if they are good, and they are qualified to be called gods. If they are evil, in my opinion , but it is no different from a monster, this Wujiang Dragon King is not worthy of being called a Dragon King at all in my opinion, but an evil dragon that stirs up trouble."

Chapter 159

Li Xiuyuan had just finished speaking when a group of passing people shouted at him.

"Now that the Dragon King is angry and it rained just now, we should pray to the Dragon King to calm down. How can you insult the Dragon King here? If the Dragon King hears about it, he will definitely punish you."

"Yeah, it's too small to punish you when the time comes. If you provoke the Dragon Lord to rain for a few more days, it will be terrible."

"Don't waste time, let's hurry up and burn incense to Lord Dragon."

This group of people pointed at Li Xiuyuan and left quickly.

"Young master, these people are ignorant, so there's no need to be as knowledgeable as them." The guard next to him said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "I'm not that narrow-minded, and I would get angry when I was pointed out a few times. I really think that the people are ignorant and ignorant, and the awe of the gods is more than anything. Under such circumstances, it is no wonder that the gods will become more and more unscrupulous. If If the common people have the same thoughts, no matter how high the Wujiang Dragon King is, he would not dare to be so presumptuous."

"Let's go, go ahead and have a look, I see many people have gone there."

After speaking, he waved his hand and rushed forward with the guards.

In Guobei City, there is a treasure temple nearly twenty feet high. I don't know when it was built.

On weekdays, few people come to this treasure temple, it is just a decoration in the city, but today the vicinity of this treasure temple is full of people from the city, big and small, old and young.

A straw hut was built near the treasure temple. In the hut, the people brought incense and offered sacrifices to the Wujiang Dragon King, who was invisible in the clouds in the sky. , stop the heavy rain, and return the peace here.

The thatched shed circled the pagoda three times, and the incense was burning inside, and the naked eye could see a puff of cigarette smoke overflowing from the thatched shed, rolling towards the sky.

Li Xiuyuan saw those incense burns soaring into the sky, even the resentment in the rain was washed away. If this continues, the resentment in the sky will be completely wiped out by the incense in less than seven days.

"I really didn't expect that the wishes of the people could even appease the grievances. When the grievances are calmed down, I believe that the Dragon King of Wujiang will have no excuse to continue to rain."

He couldn't help but think so.

Looking at it like this, there are still experts in Guobei City who are secretly helping.

Otherwise, how could it be so quick to organize the people, build straw huts, and burn incense to pray.

Obviously, this is to forcibly drive away the Dragon King of Wujiang with the wishes of the people and the power of incense.

Because once the incense burns away the grievances, the cause and effect will be over. If the Wujiang Dragon King does not leave, it will be against the wishes of the people. Such consequences will be serious. At that time, it will not be as simple as the word cause and effect. Karma is coming.
