I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Lin Yiran took two steps and looked back at Prefect He.

"Master He, is there a Taoist priest in the city who can pray for rain?"

He Zhifu paused, smiled bitterly, and pulled the corners of his lips.

"There are Taoist priests, and many of them are capable. When the drought first showed signs, many Taoist priests were consulted to pray for rain."

"Then a slightly more powerful Taoist priest can pray for a few thunders after chanting for a long time, and an average Taoist priest can pray for two dark clouds."

"When there was thunder, the whole city was extremely excited, but in the end it was all in vain. The thunder was gone after a few peals, and the dark clouds soon dispersed, and no rain fell."

"There are still a lot of scammers, jumping around for a long time, but there is no change in the sky. Instead, it feels like the sun is even hotter."

Which city has not prayed for rain? The key is that it cannot come.

No matter how powerful the Taoist priest was in the past, he prayed for rain until he vomited blood but still didn’t get a single drop of rain.

Lin Yiran pulled the corner of her lips and smiled faintly.

"Master He, please invite all the Taoists who have some ability to go to Brahma City with us."

Being able to pray for thunder and dark clouds requires some skill, as there is strength in numbers.

The Xiao family members all looked at Lin Yiran in confusion.

Although they didn't know why Lin Yiran thought of using a Taoist priest to pray for rain, they all tacitly did not say anything to stop her.

Lin Yiran must have her reasons for doing this.

With the help of gods, the Taoists will definitely be able to pray for rain.

Maybe the Taoist priest is just a cover for Lin Yiran to hide her tracks.

"Okay, I'll have someone call all the Taoists over right away."

Magistrate He sent someone to call for help without hesitation.

Lord God King is following the Xiao family, so maybe these Taoists can really have a favorable situation.

Soon, a group of Taoist priests who were starving and skinny and looked nothing like immortals were found.

When they heard that it was Xiao Yunzhan, who was blessed by the God King, who was going to Brahma City to pray for rain, a light flashed in the Taoists' weak eyes.

A large amount of food and water suddenly appeared in Pingliang City, which was given by the God-King. They were excited just thinking about being able to pray for rain with the God-King.

Xiao Yunzhan left twenty secret guards for Prefect He to prevent anyone in Pingliang City from taking the opportunity to cause trouble. Prefect He had to have some powerful people in his hands.

After Prefect He watched the Taoists follow Xiao Yunzhan's large army of soldiers to leave Pingliang City, he immediately began to arrange accommodation for the refugees.

At the same time, officials were ordered to set up 30 soup kitchens for disaster relief in Pingliang City.

After Prefect He beat to death several officials who had hidden water and grain, no one in Pingliang City dared to hide water and grain anymore.

..........

"Master Zhao, we have been waiting for so many days, but we have not seen the Xiao family coming down from the mountain."

Jiang Xu looked at Zhao Cheng who had suddenly arrived, his eyes flashed slightly, and he reported with his eyes clasped together.

The poison that General Xiao gave them was truly poisonous.

The 15 brothers were so exhausted that they couldn't even stand up. They suspected that General Xiao had given them laxatives.

Then they went to the city one by one secretly to see a doctor, but they couldn't find out whether the patient had taken a laxative or had been poisoned.

There is no way to detoxify it if they can't figure out what the poison is. What else can they do? They can only swear to each other that no one will betray anyone.

Everyone supervised each other and collected information from the capital together so that they could send it to Brahma City to exchange for the antidote from Xiao Yunzhan.

Zhao Cheng stood with his hands behind his back, his face gloomy, and his eyes swept across everyone's faces one by one.

It’s all the fault of these useless trash. So many people were killed and injured in the fight against foreigners, and they couldn’t cover up such a big thing, and it was actually known to the gravekeeper.

If the grave keeper didn't know, then the fact that he had concealed it from outsiders would not be known by Emperor Wu of Liang.

But now was the time when he needed someone, so he had to swallow his anger.

"No need to defend, set out now and chase the foreigners."

Zhao Cheng said this coldly and jumped onto his horse.

Behind him, there were fifty palace guards, and together with these 15 people, there were a total of 65 palace guards.

There are a few people, but these are the ones he trusts more among the palace guards, so he can feel at ease.

Jiang Xu was slightly stunned, then lowered his eyelids and glanced at the people behind him.

With such a small number of people going after the Xiao family, Zhao Cheng is probably heading for his death.

".....yes!"

Jiang Xu frowned and responded.

He turned around and looked at the 14 people who knew the situation, each with a different look in their eyes. When their eyes met, they immediately lowered their eyelids and turned around to untie the horses tied to the tree stump.

They couldn't even send this message out.

All 15 people were named to go with them, so how can we send the message? We can only act according to circumstances.

Zhao Cheng looked at the horses brought by Jiang Xu and others, and his brows immediately frowned.

This horse is so hungry that it's skin and bones. How can it still run?

These useless people can't even raise a horse.

Zhao Cheng turned his head speechlessly, and after taking another look at the wilted horse, he was about to lose his temper.

"set off!"

Zhao Cheng waved the whip, hit the horse's butt, and galloped straight south.

When he left the city, he had arranged for his family to disguise themselves and head south in batches.

In the entire Daliang Kingdom, only the south was not suffering from severe drought, so of course he had to run to the south.

Fortunately, Emperor Wu of Liang was so busy with the skeletons in the royal cemetery that he didn't think of imprisoning his family members.

In the past, the families of ministers who had made meritorious contributions while serving their sentences were kept under surveillance to prevent them from escaping.

This is God helping him, Emperor Wu of Liang deserved his bad luck.

"Master Zhao!"

Jiang Xu noticed that the direction was wrong, so he whipped his horse's butt hard a few times and chased after Zhao Cheng.

"The foreigners are not going in this direction, they are going to..."

"This is the emperor's order. The emperor received news that the foreigners fled to the south."

Zhao Cheng paused with his hand holding the reins, turned his head and gave Jiang Xu a cold look.

The talkative boy, of course he knew that those foreigners ran to the northwest.

That group of people might have been sent by the Queen of Xiliang.

So many days have passed. If those foreigners were really as powerful as his subordinates said, they would have fled to Xiliang Kingdom by now.

He felt that his death was too slow, so he ran to Xiliang Kingdom to chase someone.

Apart from anything else, the Xiao family's private soldiers in Brahma City are enough to give him a hard time.

“Ah!? Yes!”

Jiang Xu looked at Zhao Cheng in confusion and closed his mouth silently.

That's impossible. Why would Xiao Yunzhan go to the south? Brahma City is his base camp.

Forget it, this is not his concern, just go to the South.

The resources in the south are more abundant, so running around is not hard at all.

Zhao Cheng narrowed his eyes, glanced at Jiang Xu with a gloomy expression, turned around and continued to gallop south on his horse.

Emperor Wu of Liang was moody and people all over the world were complaining. It might have been a stroke of luck that he went to the south to start an uprising.

With his skills and abilities, it should be no problem for him to suppress a city in the south.

By the time.......

...........

"Did everyone bring it?"

The empress raised her eyelids expressionlessly and looked at the gap-toothed female official indifferently.
