After the hero goes crazy

"Boom boom boom—" The ground shook, and it seemed that there were thousands of horses galloping.

The houses on both sides of the street were shaking, and large cracks spread from the bottom of the wall to the top.

When everyone heard his shout, several of them subconsciously threw sandbags and hid behind the walls on both sides.

Those sandbags piled up into a mountain were shaken off, and Yao Hui gritted his teeth and stepped forward to pick up some of them, trying to put them back together.

But these sandbags are inherently heavy, and they get heavier after absorbing water.

The ground shook violently again, and he couldn't stand stably, not to mention that every time he shook, more sandbags would fall down.

The tremor became more and more serious, and the roar of the flood was close at hand——

Someone ran not far away, and when he heard the movement and looked back, he was stunned and shouted in horror:
"head--"

Yao Hui raised his head, and saw the distant waves rolled up to a height of two feet, casting shadows over the houses.

The flood came fiercely, with an aura of destroying heaven and earth, engulfing houses wherever it went.

His pupils constricted, he threw the sandbag in his hand at a critical moment, and rushed to the side of the street desperately, hugging a wooden post tightly.

The next moment, he first heard Hong Tao's roar, and then a force that could not be resisted by human power swept over.

The sandbag barricades piled up by everyone were vulnerable to the power of nature and were washed away together.

The house collapsed silently and melted into the water.

Yao Hui's body was quickly surrounded by the torrent, and with the sound of 'buzz', the water flowed into his ears, nose and mouth under the pressure of great pressure.

He could feel that the wooden pillar he was holding was torn apart by this force, and the house collapsed. Holding the wooden pillar, he was sucked into the torrent.

……

Inside the Yao family, everyone's expressions were a little ugly.

The servants in the palace have just arrived and sent the emperor's will from the gods. The emperor has only one meaning: I heard that 700 years ago, under the ravages of the demon clan, Zhang Fuchen, a great Confucian, once performed Confucianism and Taoism. An incomparably huge shield protected the entire city.

——Now, since Liu Bingzhou has predicted that there will be a flood tonight, his magical powers will not be inferior to that of Zhang Fuchen.

Therefore, Emperor Shenqi asked him to display Confucianism, set an example for Confucian scholars in the world, and cast the shield of holy magic to protect the entire god.

"What an example of a Confucian scholar, what protects the gods—" Mrs. Liu glanced at her father and sighed:
"The emperor is blaming you."

After the eldest princess broke into the palace, Emperor Shenqi was furious.

But Zhu Hengrui had a heavy army in his hands, and before he could get into trouble, he had no choice but to vent his anger elsewhere.

That's why Wen Qingzhe was imprisoned, and Liu Bingzhou was forced to take action at this time.

But in Liu's eyes, the words of purpose are like a fantasy, obviously they deliberately made things difficult and ridiculed Liu Bingzhou.

Yao Shouning heard her mother's nagging, but her eyes fell on her grandfather.

In the eyes of everyone in the Yao family, Emperor Shenqi's request was tantamount to making things difficult, but she had already seen the moment when her grandfather sacrificed himself to defend the city from the future prophecy.

"Grandfather—" She reached out her hand with tears in her eyes to pull Liu Bingzhou.

The relaxed atmosphere of clamoring about wanting to learn the origami crane technique before has dissipated, replaced by heaviness.

"Don't worry." Liu Bingzhou patted her head and said with a smile:
"I have it in my mind."

It was not the time for him to make a move yet, and Emperor Shenqi's actions were nothing more than venting his anger and wanting to damage his reputation.

But for him, fame, wealth and status are like floating clouds, whether he is admired or reviled by others, life is the same.

The hearts of several people were very heavy. At this moment, Yao Shouning seemed to hear the sound of the torrent, and a scene flashed in front of her: Yao Hui's figure on the street was swept up by the flood and disappeared.

"Father—" she cried out in shock.

As soon as the words fell, everyone in the Yao family heard: "Boom! '

It seemed that the ground was shocked, and the ground shook.

The Yao family's house seemed to be built on a layer of cloth, and when the cloth was shaken, the whole house shook.

Grandma Cao was getting old, and she was even a little unsteady on her feet, and fell to the ground with a 'plop'.

The tables, chairs, and cabinets in the room were all skewed, and the food on the table was too late to eat, and the bowls all slipped off.

The crackling sound of "clang clang" was endless, and Yao Wanning swayed twice. Yao Shouning didn't have time to hug her, but saw her being firmly supported by the "River God" behind him.

The big hand of the "River God" stopped her belly, making her stand firm.

She was still in shock, Liu Bingzhou said in a deep voice:

"The flood is coming."

Everyone was taken aback, and then they heard screams one after another in the distance.

The flood was extremely fierce and swift.

——The observatory of Si Tianjian in the city is the highest place besides the imperial palace, overlooking the entire capital of God.

At this time, the eldest princess has already occupied this place, looking down into the distance.

She saw with her own eyes that the Bailing River had an accident. First, the watchtower outside the city was washed away. King Jian, who was hung beside the bronze bell on the tower, was swallowed by the flood without even shouting.

The force of the water broke through the tower and the embankment, like a giant beast rushing into the city.

Wherever they went, the houses were razed, and the muddy river quickly covered the streets of Shendu.

Fortunately, there was a lot of noise during the day, whether it was the eldest princess forcibly breaking into the palace, or the rumors of kidnapping and kidnapping King Jian flowed into thousands of households along with the "flood". not heavy.

But the eldest princess did not take it lightly.

Her gaze was not on the torrent that was rushing into the city, but to the distance - that was the direction of the Bailing River.

In the heavy rain, there seemed to be dark clouds gathering above the river, and with her hearing, she could vaguely hear the sound of 'buzzing'.

In Zhu Hengrui's heart, the mosquitoes with a demonic aura in their stomachs emerged. I don't know what kind of harm these insects will bring to the people after the disaster.

"I hope Senior Brother Xu can concoct an antidote—" the always strong eldest princess sighed long, with a look of exhaustion on her face.

But this expression only appeared for a moment, and after only a moment, her eyes regained her fortitude, and she stood on the observatory with a spear in her hand, with a powerful expression.

At this moment, a black spot seemed to be reflected in her eyes, and it moved rapidly in the rain.

"That is--"

Zhu Hengrui narrowed her eyes, and was about to raise her gun to stab it, but the thing flew closer and closer, and she no longer felt like a mosquito infected by the evil spirit.

When she was about five feet away from her, she saw clearly that it was a paper crane fluttering its wings, carrying the familiar Confucian righteousness on it.

The princess's tightly locked brows loosened, and she smiled:

"Senior brother!"

She stretched out her hand and grabbed the paper crane into her palm.

……

God made many people sleepless all night.

Although there was an early warning from the eldest princess, the severity of the flood was still beyond the imagination of many people.

The Yao family is located in the upper reaches of Shendu City, not near the river. When the flood rushed to this place, the impact was much smaller, but it was still submerged.

The water was up to people's knees, and Yao Shouning's room could no longer sleep, so he had to move into Liu's room with Yao Wanning, and the two sisters shared the same room.

Both inside and outside the street are filled with water, and some places are not up to the waist, and it is impossible to go out of the street.

The gate was full of impacted sundries, wooden debris from tables and chairs, and the family members had to clean it up for a long time before they managed to open the door.

Mrs. Liu stood at the gate with a worried look on her face.

"Don't worry."

"Father." Liushi turned her head when she heard the voice.

She looked haggard and her eyes were red.

There was a flood last night, and Yao Hui didn't return all night. She was worried and couldn't sleep all night.

Originally, I wanted to send someone out to take a look at it in the morning, but at this time the street was flooded with water, and there were no pedestrians on the street. I only saw that the water was stained turbid yellow by mud and sand, and there were many sundries floating on it.

Mrs. Liu saw his father coming over with an umbrella. The rain seemed to be blocked by the invisible righteousness in his body. When it hit the edge of his umbrella, it splashed in all directions, making his clothes not even wet.

But Liu Bingzhou's eyes were also red, as if he hadn't slept all night just like her.

"Why are you up so early?"

Looking out from the door of Yao's house, there was an endless river in front of him, and the surrounding was extremely quiet, occasionally faint crying could be heard, which made Liu's heart heavy.

"I didn't sleep well last night." Liu Bingzhou said:
"Yao Hui will be fine, don't think too much about it."

Since he entered the Divine City, several important things he said have come true, and when Liu Shi heard him say this, a big stone in his heart suddenly fell back to its original place.

She patted her chest and said, "That's great, God bless."

"But don't be too happy too soon."

Liu Bingzhou looked serious:
"Today, you tell your family not to go out if you have nothing to do, lock the doors and windows tightly, and prepare some firewood at home. If mosquitoes appear, immediately sprinkle white wine and light a torch to smoke them away."

"Mosquito?" Liu was stunned for a moment, a little strange:
"It's freezing cold, where did the mosquitoes come from?" As soon as she finished asking, she felt that something was wrong, and seeing her father's serious face, she couldn't help feeling a little nervous, and asked:
"Could it be that there is something weird?"

"Not bad." Liu Bingzhou nodded and said in a low voice:
"This flood is just the beginning. The evil energy in the bottom of the river is too strong, and a group of demon Gu insects have been raised. After these Gu insects hatch, they will turn into poisonous mosquitoes and bite the people."

He frowned:
"After being bitten by this kind of poisonous mosquito, the evil spirit enters the body, and the wound does not heal for a long time, it is very serious."

"But this kind of poisonous mosquito does not like the smell of alcohol, and it lives at the bottom of the river. It is an evil creature and is most afraid of fire. Therefore, the combination of the two can drive it away."

These news are what he heard from the girl from the future at Yingtian Bookstore.

But even though he has learned about what happened now, there are some results that he cannot change.

Liu Bingzhou frowned:
"But it's just driving away, it can't be completely killed, you still have to be careful, careful, and careful."

He said "be careful" several times in a row, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.

Liu Shi also knew it well, and nodded upon hearing the words.

Immediately, he remembered something again and asked quickly:
"The eldest princess over there—"

"I have already told her about the eldest princess." Liu Bingzhou turned his head to look in the direction of Bailing River:

"Hope things don't go wrong."

According to the "her" back then, because of the early warning of the flood, most of the people in Shendu City escaped disaster.

Although there were still casualties, it was far better than the situation in Yao Shouning's vision where corpses were strewn all over the field.

But in the end, it was the Demon Mosquito who caused the huge damage.

These mosquitoes appeared overwhelmingly after the flood did not subside, and a large number of people were bitten unawares.

At first they thought it was just a mosquito bite, and many people didn't take it seriously, but later, these wounds festered rapidly, and within half a day, they could rot all over the body.

From being bitten to deteriorating, it took no more than two days at most.

These people died so quickly that the family didn't even have time to clean up the bodies.

And at this moment, Emperor Shenqi issued an imperial decree to levy a 'dead tax'.

This is a newly added tax in the Daqing Dynasty about ten years after Emperor Shenqi ascended the throne, and it is called "seeing officials to get rich" among the people.

The people had just been flooded and their families were impoverished. It was the time when they were hungry and cold. When they heard that the government would increase taxes, many people simply stopped picking up the corpses and threw the corpses of their relatives into the water.

He fell into the memory, thinking of the girl who accidentally traveled through time and space and broke into the bookstore, but said with tears in her eyes:
"Shendu City was flooded, and the dead people were like fish floating up in the ocean."

That kind of tragic situation has already been presented in just a few words.

The most serious thing is that after these people who died of being corroded by the evil spirit entered the water, the evil poison flowed along the water, infecting many survivors who had not been bitten by mosquitoes, causing another large number of people to be injured and accidents again.

At that time, the gods were all dead and wounded everywhere, and ten rooms were empty.

Many people frantically fled the capital, and the formerly prosperous city of gods was like a ghost town. Even the emperor was frightened and stopped the 'dead tax' in time.

But even so, the damage caused by this catastrophe is still huge.

Just when everyone thought that the sky was about to perish, someone accidentally discovered that these weird poisonous mosquitoes hate the smell of alcohol and are even more afraid of fire.

As the news spread, the people seemed to be reborn, which prevented the situation from getting worse for the time being.

Many years later, Liu Bingzhou recalled the girl's tearful narration at Yingtian Bookstore, and he could not forget it for a long time.

When he dreams back at midnight, he always thinks of that sentence: Dead people are like fish floating up in the ocean.

As time approached and the flood came, he became more and more afraid, and he hesitated whether he should take action later to protect the city of God.

But that girl said that his mission is in the future, not now.

Before his death, Master had earnestly confessed to him that he must not break the rules of history and make things deviate.

He didn't dare to disobey his teacher's order, and he also knew that his mission was in the future, facing the "resurrected" visitor from 700 years ago.

However, the people of Shendu City are real people, and they cannot just watch as something happens to Shendu City.

When Yao Shouning delivered the letter yesterday, he was struggling and hesitating in his heart, whether he should tell the Eldest Princess how to break through the poisonous mosquitoes.

According to the course of history, if he speaks out, he will disrupt many things and change the trajectory of some people's destiny.

And if he didn't say it, it would be like what 'she' said in the bookstore, many people would die tragically because of this, and the corpses would be scattered all over the place.

Say?Or not?

For prophets, sometimes such difficult decisions are faced.

In the end, Liu Bingzhou could not restrain his inner emotions, and still informed the eldest princess by means of paper cranes.

"I hope my choice is not wrong—" His eye circles were red, he looked up into the distance, and muttered silently:

"Master, I hope that your spirit in heaven can bless these innocent people. I am willing to bear all the sins."

Zhang Raozhi's smiling and gentle face seemed to appear in front of him, Liu Bingzhou closed his eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of his eyes.
