The sword is the devil

Chapter 139 Flooded Suqiu

In Xiaoqianbao, as long as the villagers could hold tools, they all stood on the wall of the fort. Hundreds of people stood silently in rain capes.

This is a habit that every human fort in Yinling has developed in the harsh living environment. In abnormal weather, they will stand on the fort wall and wait for it. There are too many such cases in the past history. Touching into the human fortress can hurt people at the slightest, or throw the castle at worst, so no one dares to be careless.

Everyone felt a little heavy, because after such a heavy rain, no one dared to say how much of their previous efforts remained; after the rainy season, no one knew whether the canal would be able to start on time, but there was one thing, Spring is out of the question, and it will wait until summer at the earliest, depending on how much the previous project has been damaged?
Decades of hope have been ruthlessly postponed by God. It may not matter if there is no drainage, but once people have hope, the disappointment will be even greater, so deep that it is unforgettable and unable to extricate themselves.

That big hole was dug out spade by spade. How much effort was spent at the beginning, and how sad it is now.

Among the crowd on the wall, the three sisters-in-law of the Jiang family were also among them. Even if they were women, they couldn't stay out of the matter at this moment.

Jiang Hanshi whispered, "Sir, he hasn't come back for two days."

Jiang Lin comforted himself, "Sir is a practitioner, the heavy rain won't affect him, right?"

Jiang Baishi sighed, and she had to remind the two sisters, "Sooner or later, you all knew it well at the beginning, why are you worrying about gains and losses now?"

The three of them stopped talking, yes, they will leave sooner or later, why should they be reluctant?After all, it was just a deal, they had already given everything, and the next thing was to see if he would extend his hand when the children grew up.

There is no contract, and there are no documents. In the Yinling Wasteland, all you rely on is your most basic reputation. In this respect, Quanzhen Sect has a good reputation.

As a member of the Quanzhen Sect, this Mr. Hou, after getting along these days, they can fully feel that he will follow his words; he is a very good and meticulous person.

Except for some weird little hobbies, for example, I like to trim wild grass... Every time I play in the water, I have to trim them for them.

Hearing him say that this is a habit developed after getting used to legal punishment, it is a bit obsessive-compulsive.

But the strange thing is the habit, people are still very reliable; I just don’t know if they will be pruned more frequently after water is convenient in the future?

Or, no chance?I heard people say that weeds will grow stronger after being trimmed frequently. If this is true, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for me...

The rain is getting heavier and the clouds are drooping. Even at the hour of dawn, there is not much dawn; the vision cannot reach far, and it starts to become blurred from tens of feet away. Fortunately, there are no monsters taking advantage of the chaos to attack, at least Not yet, and now that the darkest dawn has passed, the possibility of monsters attacking will be greatly reduced.

Just when the people of Xiaoqianbao breathed a sigh of relief, an accident happened; there was a rumbling and dull sound from a distance, which was still vaguely hidden under the thunder and rain at first, but gradually it began to change. The sound is getting clearer, getting closer, and the sound is getting louder, as if there are thousands of wild beasts running!
Did the torrential rain trigger a beast horde?This is how to do?Desperation was revealed in everyone's eyes. Under such a tide of beasts, human beings had no chance at all in the face of raging beasts.

The direction of the sound was towards Xiaoqianbao!The entire fort wall seemed to be shaking, and even weak bricks and stones began to fall. They knew that the danger was coming, but they didn't even have the courage to escape.

There is no escape, is there anything more desperate than this?I can only hold the weapon in my hand tightly, try to open my eyes wide, and look at what kind of monsters will come out of the dark fortress wall and the heavy rain like a waterfall. Even if I go to the underworld, at least I know What monster did he die in?

I see!
Three upright walking monsters came galloping, with strange postures and ridiculous behaviors, and the way of shrugging and shrugging was not the normal way... It should be monsters like apes, right?After all, most Yinling beasts land on all fours after running, so what are the remaining two limbs for?Are you waving?
Getting closer, these three things are really strange, they are still wearing clothes?Beasts running in clothes are not afraid of throwing themselves somersaults?Waiting for a ride?
The rain was too heavy, and ordinary people's eyesight was very limited. It wasn't until the three monsters were passing by the Xiaoqian Castle that everyone suddenly discovered the truth. They were not apes, monsters, or monsters, but three humans!

"It's sir!" Jiang Han's eyes were the most poisonous.

"Could it be that they are being chased by a herd of beasts? Shall we let them in?" Jiang Lin's heart was the softest.

"They are passing by, not entering the castle!" Jiang Baishi was the most rational.

Everyone's despair was instantly replaced by curiosity. Of course, they knew that these three people would appear on the construction site every day throughout the winter, and they were the three parades of Quanzhen Sect!

Even if they are running for their lives, what is chasing them?
Everyone cast their gazes behind the three of them, and the voice became clearer. It was the sound of herds of beasts running away, rumbling and deafening!
Almost in an instant, a white line appeared in everyone's sight. It was two feet high and surging, like a giant dragon, opening its mouth to devour everything in front of it!
It's not a herd of beasts, it's not a monster, it's a flood!Running forward along the old river, the old river is like a slough left by a giant dragon decades ago, and now it is being revived under the rain!

The surrounding audience exclaimed, no one thought that such a thing would happen, are these three parades offending Bailian River God and being chased and killed by the River God?
In the collective ignorance, the three parade figures had long since disappeared, and the high water head plunged into the big hole dug by the people of Xiaoqianbao, as if they had fallen, and climbed out after a few breaths, the water head was raised Higher, Huo Xiao followed the Taoist away.

What remains in everyone's sight is the seemingly endless body of the giant dragon, rolling in turbid waves, advancing forward and succeeding.

The terrifying sound they heard was the sound of the great river galloping forward, but they hadn't heard this sound for too long, and it had already become a distant memory, indifferent and without a trace.

"What's going on here? Is it a big flood? Will Xiaoqianbao be flooded?" Some worried.

"Did Mr. Xunyou do it on purpose? Or did Bailian River break its embankment and collapse?" This is a little sensible.

"At least the puddle is full, so you don't have to worry about water for half a year?" This is an optimist who thinks about the best when things happen.

But an old voice said the essence of the matter in one word, "I understand! I understand! I wonder why my lord is never in a hurry to arrange the digging of the canal? It turns out that he didn't dig the canal at all, he was I want to change the course of the Bailian River back to the way it flowed a hundred years ago!
Xiaoqianbao was saved!No matter what the future holds, we no longer have to worry about water sources!Because the Bailian River passes right in front of the fort!

We no longer have to work hard to fetch water, and we no longer have to spend the day dirty. We have plenty of water, and we can use it however we want! "

Elder Jiang knelt down on the wall crying, and the villagers who finally understood also knelt down one after another, praising him loudly. At this moment, Lord Hou is the god in their hearts!
