Jiangmen Tianjiao: Reborn with funny ancestors

The terrain of Longmen Mountain is very high. When the agreed time to dig the embankment arrived, Chu Tianjiao, Nie Feng, and Du Ningzhou stood on the top of the mountain, looking through the rain curtain to see clearly the scene of the embankment breach.

Chu Tianjiao had been soaked in the rain for nearly half a month, and the skin on his face and hands was abnormally white.

She nervously clenched the Fire Cloud Gun in her hand, and straightened her back with the support of the Fire Cloud Gun on the ground.

She knew she couldn't panic. The people of Puyang all over the mountains and plains were all looking at her.

Only when she remains calm and confident can the people feel at ease.

Nie Feng glanced at Chu Tianjiao with the corner of his eye. Infected by her calmness, he stopped rubbing his hands nervously.

"Master Chu, they only need to dig a few small holes in the river bank and evacuate quickly.

The impact of the big river water will first overflow from those small holes, gradually enlarging the holes, and then wash away that section of the embankment.

In other words, Zichen's guards still have time to escape. "

Nie Feng explained to Chu Tianjiao.

Chu Tianjiao said "hmm".

At this time, she didn't want to understand the reason for the embankment collapse, she just prayed silently that Zichen could return safely.

Zichen is Lu Yu's subordinate. If something happens to Zichen, Chu Tianjiao doesn't know how to explain to Lu Yu.

Zichen was once deceived by Xie Rongan into thinking that he was from Dongyi.

But his loyalty to Lu Yu has never changed.

Chu Tianjiao thought that if Zichen could come back safely this time, she would definitely write a letter to tell Lu Yu that Zichen had used his actions to wash away the original shame.

His willingness to take risks for the people of Li country proves that he has truly identified with his bloodline as a Li country person.

The waiting time is the most difficult to endure.

According to Nie Feng's calculation, Zichen and the young man should have already been evacuating at this time.

They brought two horses with them, but how could the horses outrun the flood?

Du Ningzhou's face was also pale, and his light green official robe was wrinkled. He, who always paid attention to appearance, was not in the mood to smooth it out.

He kept confirming with Nie Feng, "Are they running towards Longmen Mountain?"

"How long will it take before the levee completely collapses?"

"Can you make it?"

At this time, no one blamed him for his gaffe.

Finally, Chu Tianjiao heard the sound of water flowing beyond the sound of rain, and saw a white line on the horizon.

The sound became louder and louder, and the white line gradually became thicker, like a horizontal python, swallowing the land in the distance.

"The waves are coming..." Nie Feng roared excitedly.

Chu Tianjiao's eyes were fixed on the white python, trying to spot Zichen's figure, but unfortunately it was too far away and he couldn't see anything clearly.

The sound of water gradually turned into a roar.

The floods destroyed villages and roads along the way.

At the foot of Longmen Mountain, it turned into an ocean.

Some of the people were crying: "That's our village over there, and our village has been flooded!"

Wherever the flood passed, houses collapsed, trees were broken, and fields were submerged. Even part of the city wall of Puyang County was submerged in the water.

Chu Tianjiao's eyes were already red. She didn't notice Zichen, nor the young man who went with Zichen.

Du Ningzhou collapsed on the ground in grief and burst into tears.

"Master Chu...Master Chu...Zi Chen..."

Chu Tianjiao choked up and was speechless.

She had underestimated the power of floods before.

If she went to dig a dike, even if she brought water-proof beads, she couldn't guarantee that she would be safe.

Zichen went to die on her behalf.

Chu Tianjiao raised his head, suppressed the sadness in his heart, turned around and asked Nie Feng:

"Master Nie, how long do you think it will take for the water to recede?"

Nie Feng knew in his heart that the two people who went to dig the dike would never come back.

One of them was obviously a close associate of Chu Tianjiao.

He thought Chu Tianjiao would cry, but he heard Chu Tianjiao ask him when the water would subside.Nie Feng took a moment to react.

"My sympathies, Lord Chu. According to the official's estimation, the water will slow down tomorrow.

With Longmen Mountain blocking it, the water will not continue to spread.

Three days later, we can descend from the other side of Longmen Mountain.

The river course has been changed. When the time comes to see the direction of the new river course, we will re-build the embankment. "

Chu Tianjiao nodded and said to Nie Feng and Du Ningzhou: "I'm a little tired. Let's go and take a rest. If there's an emergency, you can call me."

After saying that, Chu Tianjiao walked down the top of the mountain, returned to the temporary tent, asked his personal guards to guard the outside, took off his wet clothes, put on a pair of clean clothes that were still damp, and lay down on the camp bed.

She was really tired. She rarely slept since entering Yuzhou.

At this moment, an overwhelming feeling of powerlessness hit her.

Chu Tianjiao closed her eyes. At this moment, tears overflowed from her eyes and soaked the bag that was placed under her neck as a pillow.

Chu Tianjiao slept all day and night.

When she woke up, she saw Qin Benzhuo's egg head shining brightly in front of her bed.

Qin Benzhuo has been useless since he followed Chu Tianjiao from Ganzhou. He didn't expect that he would become a big one once he came back to life.

He saw Chu Tianjiao open his eyes and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Sir, if you don't wake up, I'm afraid I'll have to carry my head back to Ganzhou."

Chu Tianjiao felt light-headed and couldn't sit up. He asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with me?"

While feeling her pulse, Qin Benzhuo complained: "Who doesn't rest for half a month? Do you really think you are made of iron? You are still soaking in water all day long and working hard. Even an iron man should be rusty!"

Did you know that after you burned it for a day and a night, you could cook eggs at that temperature?

If I hadn't brought the medicine the master used to treat the epidemic, you would have been burned to death. "

Chu Tianjiao was shocked: "I have an epidemic? Then isolate me from everyone quickly so that I can't infect the people."

Qin Benzhuo helped Chu Tianjiao sit up and said angrily: "What epidemic? Who said that the master's medicine can only cure epidemic diseases?

The master said that it can still be used when you have a high fever, but you need to test a small amount first. "

Only then did Chu Tianjiao feel relieved.

"Is Zichen back?"

Qin Benzhuo was not familiar with Zichen, but seeing the expectation in Chu Tianjiao's eyes, he still couldn't bear to tell her the truth.

Seeing Qin Benzhuo's eyes dodge, Chu Tianjiao was disappointed and sat blankly, letting Qin Benzhuo give her the acupuncture.

Qin Benzhuo said while applying acupuncture on Chu Tianjiao's head: "This can force the cold air out of your body as soon as possible."

After the injection, Qin Benzhuo brought another bowl of medicine for Chu Tianjiao to drink.

Chu Tianjiao asked: "Where did you get the medicinal materials?"

Qin Benzhuo said: "I brought some, and the pharmacies in Puyang City also moved the medicinal materials up the mountain. If there is any shortage, ask them to make up for it."

"Where's Nie Feng?"

"Master Nie has already gone down the mountain from the south. He wants to rush back to Fengqiu Dike and continue to strengthen the dike."

Chu Tianjiao stood up, her steps a little sloppy. Qin Benzhuo wanted to help her, but she pushed him away.

"You can't get wet in the rain now." Qin Benzhuo held an umbrella and held it on Chu Tianjiao's head.

Chu Tianjiao walked out of the tent and stretched out his hand to feel the rain, "Old Qin, do you feel that the rain has become lighter?"

Qin Benzhuo looked up at the sky and said hesitantly: "It seems a little too small."

Chu Tianjiao walked along the muddy mountain road to the top of the mountain.

While passing by a forest, she heard a whimper.

Qin Benzhuo whispered in Chu Tianjiao's ear: "This is Du Zhixian. He is erecting a tomb for Zichen."

A day and a night had passed since the embankment collapsed. If Zichen was still alive, he should have returned by now.

Chu Tianjiao walked over and saw Du Ningzhou changed into plain clothes, kneeling in front of a mound, sobbing and carving words on a wooden sign.

At this time, she had no intention of gossiping at all. She knelt down, patted Du Ningzhou on the shoulder, and comforted:

"Master Du, if Zichen knew your intentions, he would definitely cherish them."

Du Ningzhou no longer concealed his emotions, wiped the water stains on the wooden sign with his sleeves, and murmured: "My love is deep, but my fate is shallow..."

Chu Tianjiao helped Du Ningzhou insert the wooden plaque engraved with the words "Where My Heart Is" into the soil.

Just when the two of them were stuck in a sad mood, unable to extricate themselves, a cold voice suddenly came from behind:

"Who died?"
