Elaborate on the world of mortals

Chapter 307 Two History Books
The last madness of the insect demon made it impossible for other warriors to approach at all, and to be honest, they did not dare to approach, and the swarm of locusts covered the sky like crazy, and even knocked out the torches in the hands of warriors.

The endless locusts seemed to have their own consciousness, and even reversed their nature of light-seeking, and continued to focus on the insect demon.

This situation is too weird, the people in the government kept yelling to make the people back, many people also fled in fright, and some even fell down.
People from Chuhang watched with horror from a distance, and even subconsciously looked at Jian Lv who was beside him, to be exact, it was the Son of Heaven Sword that Jian Lv was carrying on his back.

"Brother—"

Mai Ake yelled anxiously. Like the surrounding warriors, she had been forced to retreat by the crazy locusts. It would be a burden to approach such a situation that she couldn't even see.

The fluttering and chirping of insects are even more endless noise, making it difficult for people nearby to speak clearly.

The hundred or so fighters who formed an formation to fight against the monsters just now seem to have become isolated islands
In this case, only Mai Lingfei can fight the worm demon in chaos.

This is not just a fight between humans and demons, but also a fight between humans and catastrophes. The insect demon seems to have unleashed its final potential. Countless locusts shattered around it, turning into strands of breath and flying into its mouth. The insect legs have regrown.

However, Mai Lingfei was even more willing to fight. He was already familiar with the monster's routine, and he was used to the noise of the bugs.

The sword in his hand seemed to be an extension of his limbs, blocking the lightning-fast insect limbs under Mai Lingfei's dancing.

It seemed that he could not get close to the opponent under the attack of the insect swarm and the insect monster. It seemed that the internal energy in his body was constantly being consumed, and his true energy was running low, but Mai Lingfei was not impatient at all, and even carefully felt his own martial arts. Variety.

Even though there were more and more scars on the body, and the blood stains made the locusts even more manic, they were all skin traumas, or minor injuries replaced major injuries.

It is hard to find an opponent in the martial arts, and Mai Lingfei has not experienced this kind of battle between life and death for a long time.

Moreover, although the internal energy is almost exhausted, the true qi seems to be different. It is related to his own body and even the spirit. Soul.

At this moment, Mai Lingfei seemed to have returned to the beginning, to the cave in the Daxue Mountain, to the night when the senior taught the "Qing Xin Jue".

The general outline of "Qing Xin Jue" also emerged in the heart with Zeng Yi Shuyuan's voice:
"Don't follow your mind at will, don't watch your mind's concept, use static body to move, use movement to complement stillness, keep your own world, and let the mountains and rivers roam!"

What is in front of me is no longer a simple insect demon and locusts overwhelming the sky, but a violent storm, thunder and lightning, fighting against the wind and rain!
"Zheng-"

The sound of the sword sounded, and Mai Lingfei's meridians trembled, his inner strength completely disappeared, and instead, his true energy flourished.

At this moment, all the attacks of the worm demon and the swarm had been turned into a seemingly static trajectory, and Mai Lingfei's sword changed, and he shuttled to avoid these trajectories, and the locusts were smashed wherever they passed.
The lightning-fast sharp insect feet also slowed down, and their trajectories could even be easily predicted.

He dodged and dodged, then turned over and jumped slightly, hanging upside down in the air, and a sharp sword light was sent to the insect demon.

"Pfft~~~"

This sword pierced the top door of the insect monster!
"Ow—"

The stern howl of the insect monster was also at this moment, and the disaster of the locust plague began to dissipate quickly.
The locust swarm broke up, regained the characteristics of normal insects, and became more scattered. While flying to the fire one after another, it also exposed things that were originally covered by the swarm.

Mai Lingfei stood on the back of the worm. His clothes were torn in many places, and his body was covered with bloodstains. But in contrast, the huge monster lay motionless on the ground, obviously already killed.

A long sword was pulled out from the top door of the monster. Mai Lingfei grabbed the sword and shook the insect blood lightly, and raised the sword with a smile to signal to Mai Ake.

All the warriors immediately cheered!
However, although this is a key part of fighting against monsters, from the perspective of many people, it is only a corner of Qiancang County's fight against locust plagues.

On the edge of the vast field, a fire lit by a large number of woodpile burned for a whole night. Before dawn, the dead locusts on the field were covered in a thick layer, and there was a burnt smell everywhere.——
As the locust plague was gradually brought under control, at least in the eyes of the people in Lingdong, the disaster in Lingdong was finally over.

After all, the weather is smooth and the locust plague is over. Although there are indeed disasters in many places, but now Lingdong is united as one, and they survived last year. It is not a big problem to help each other through this year.

However, in the eyes of Qi Zhongbin and some people, there is naturally one last disaster that has not been resolved.

Dengzhou City, the original Dengzhou Yamen Office, now also serves as the revitalization of the Sima Mansion. Before the imperial court has appointed a new Dengzhou Zhizhou, Chu Hang also essentially exercises the power of the Zhizhou.

Today, Chu Hang on the desk has received many official documents. In the other states in Lingdong, from the state capital to the county town, officials from all over the place have reported that the disaster situation has been confirmed, and even some places that have been eaten up by locusts are Fall crops are being prepared or have already been replanted.

The magistrates of several prefectures have sorted out the various work contents this year, hoping that Chuhang will report to the court and report the achievements of Lingdong.

In other words, Lingdong has been carried over, and officials from all over the country want to ask for credit while they are overjoyed. After all, everyone knows that the emperor attaches great importance to this area.

However, Chu Hang didn't write the memorial for a long time. Sitting in front of the official case now, he also read the official documents from various places, and then added the memorial that had been prepared.

Jian Lv on one side looked at the other guard, and the former couldn't help asking.

"My lord, why don't you go to the court? The emperor must be looking forward to the good news from Lingdong!"

Chu Hang shook his head.

"Wait, wait for a while, I'm afraid the disaster will repeat itself!"

What is Chu Hang waiting for?He himself may not be able to say clearly, only there is such a feeling in the vagueness, let him know that the disaster is not really over.

At this time, some officials hurried from the outside to the official office where they worked.

"Report to my lord, that celestial master has come, said, said yes... I want to borrow something from my lord!"

Hearing the hesitant voice of the officer, Chu Hang's heart skipped a beat and he stood up immediately.

"Let's go, let's go!"

As soon as Chu Hang came out of the official office, the two bodyguards also followed, and the officer who notified him was stunned for a moment, and quickly followed.

"Hey, my lord, you haven't heard me say what the master wants to borrow that day!"

Chu Hang, who had already grown a small beard, just smiled and said nothing, and hurriedly walked towards the outer hall of the yamen, where an old man with white hair and childlike face was waiting.

Not to mention the Zhaozhou plague meeting, even during the previous locust extermination campaign, this Dayong Celestial Master had already seen him face to face, so the Dengzhou Yamen can be sure that this is indeed Dayong Celestial Master, who was recognized by the court of.

Before Qi Zhongbin could speak, Chu Hang had already bowed his hands to salute when he walked over there.

"Tianshi, Chu has been waiting for many days!"

Qi Zhongbin was slightly surprised. This Lingdong Revitalization Sima probably hasn't read the book left by his master so far. This person is really special.

"It seems that Master Sima already knows that Qi is coming! This old man wants to borrow the Tianzi Sword to use. I don't know if Master Sima dares to take this responsibility?"

As soon as the emperor's sword is released, it is like the emperor's presence in person. It can kill corrupt officials and kill dogs and dogs. It is a more exaggerated token than a gold medal.

Not to mention what to do if the borrower loses it, and you don't need to look at the reason for borrowing, just borrowing it is a serious crime!
Chu Hang laughed. Although he, Lingdong Revitalization Sima, has a great power in Lingdong Dao, it is only a vacant position, and he also believes that he has made some achievements. He also has a backer in the court. Adding the emperor's sage, he may have committed a serious crime knowingly. But it is impossible for the emperor to kill him no matter what, at worst he will be dismissed from office.

So Chu Hang smiled calmly, he had already understood the real way of being an official, so how could he care about other things.

"Why don't you dare, Jian Lv!"

"Subordinates are here!"

"Tianzi sword please!"

Jian Lv hesitated for a moment, and knelt down in front of Chu Hang. The latter reached out and untied the yellow silk from his back, and took out one of the precious swords. A little simple, but revealing a heavy feeling.

Chu Hang handed the Emperor Sword to Qi Zhongbin with both hands.

"Old Heavenly Master, please make good use of it!"

The moment Qi Zhongbin took the sword, he felt an illusion that the palm of his hand sank. This sword has a special weight, obviously it is not like an ordinary sword!
"Please don't worry, my lord, Qi will return the sword soon!"

Holding the sword in both hands, he turned around and left, Qi Zhongbin didn't waste any extra nonsense, his mind seemed to have already gone to Mozhou.
-
In the early autumn of that year, in the Mozhou border of Lingdong Road, except for a few places in the state, it was raining everywhere in the rest of the counties.

The sound of "crash la la la" rain has been going on for a day and a night.

Moreover, the rain in Mozhou is extremely weird, sometimes heavy, sometimes small, sometimes stops and then starts to fall immediately.

It's just that the common people don't pay much attention to this point. Even if they notice, the weird weather has been the norm in Lingdong for the past two years, and the change in rain is the slightest celestial phenomenon.

"Boom!" "Crack. Boom."

Lightning kept lighting up in the sky, illuminating every inch of the ground below, as if a god in the sky was blinking, looking at everything in the world.

Some places on the earth are very strange. The ground is wet by rain, but it dries up immediately, and the rain clouds in the sky dissipate immediately.

And this speed is very exaggerated, and it is constantly moving, and the approximate range changes from a village to a county.

Qi Zhongbin carried the Tianzi sword on his back, he no longer cared about the issue of imperial law, and chased after this dry air through the wind and rain.

"Boom"

Lightning illuminates the world for it, and heavy rain guides its way.
The year of chasing the drought-causing evil spirits was also the year Qi Zhongbin witnessed and responded to disasters in the entire Lingdong land.

Qi Zhongbin has been slaying demons and walking the world for decades. He has always only focused on demons and the present, but he has never seen the big from the small. He has witnessed the scene of the struggle of the people under this catastrophe.

This is the belief of the people of Lingdong, and it is also the energy that Qi Zhongbin is about to flourish at the moment.

This kind of aura belongs not only to Qi Zhongbin alone, but also to all the people in Lingdong. It seems that a strong pressure combined with the rain, constantly squeezed and compressed the breath of drought, until it reached the point where it had to gather and manifest .

"Boom--"

Lightning once again illuminated the earth, and above the clouds in the sky, there were white dragons and blue-black flood dragons poking their heads, and divine light loomed.

"Ow--"

A hollow roar came from all directions, and in front of a river, the withered yellow breath gathered into a withered human figure with disheveled hair and body.

"Ow--"

This is the manifestation of the aura of drought, like a corpse but not a corpse, like a demon but not a demon.

Drought!

This is a legendary monster that can cause severe drought, but no one has ever seen it.

At this moment, the rain in the sky increased in vain, as if the gods and dragons in the sky were about to pour all the water vapor they carried!

Qi Zhongbin rushed forward through the wind and rain, holding the hilt of the sword behind his backhand, and already had the belief in a desperate fight in his heart.

"Zheng-"

"Boom--"

The moment the Son of Heaven sword was unsheathed, the sky and the earth changed color, and the thunder light illuminated everything in a vast expanse of whiteness.

On the land of Lingdong, there seemed to be various voices, among them were the crying of the people, the entreaties of the people, the shouts of the people fighting the boats, the shouts of the people opening the canals, and the shouts of the people exterminating the locusts. .
All kinds of qi gathered together, one ebbed and the other ebbed and flowed, and it was so heavy that the Hanba who appeared was unable to move.

At this moment, Qi Zhongbin, who was glaring at him, had already arrived with his sword.

In a trance, it was not only him, the Heavenly Master of Dayong, who held the sword, but also Chu Hang and Jian Lu, as well as the living and dead Lingdong Wanmin, and the Emperor of Dayong.
"Monster, you've been in trouble for long enough—"

"puff--"

The Emperor's Sword fell and sliced ​​through Hanba's neck, a head soared into the sky, and collapsed along with the body.——
Another year of summer, in Chengtian Mansion, in the royal study of the imperial palace, Emperor Dayong, who had ended his early dynasty, had already returned here.

Today at the Great Court Meeting, Li Qian read out the latest memorial on Lingdong's disaster relief in front of all civil and military officials.

Chu Hang, who was the Sima of Lingdong Revitalization at the time, stated in the article that the drought in Lingdong has ended, the rain is abundant, the locust plague in Lingdong has also ended, and all those who deceive people have been imprisoned, and the fields in Lingdong are about to be harvested. , or already reseeded
Many people have already eaten the new grain they have grown. Although the harvest is not very good, it is enough to carry the grain harvest in the coming year.

This means that the disaster situation in Lingdong has been completely over. The court meeting ended after the emperor decreed that the people in Lingdong should be exempted from taxes for three years, and he was really relieved when he returned to the imperial study at this moment.

"Your Majesty, you rest for a while"

Zhang Liangxi came over with tea, but stopped talking in the middle of the conversation. It was clearly morning, but at this moment the emperor had already fallen asleep lying on the imperial case.

There is also a table case in the outer room of the imperial study room, sitting here is the living man, one of the officials under the Dayong historian system.

On the desk of the living man, there are not only books describing the various affairs of the emperor, but also some historical books at the request of the emperor, and there are even texts that have not been fully concluded today.

Regarding the description of the disaster in Lingdong, Tai Shiling has already sent a document to ask the emperor to read it, but the emperor is too tired, so he still put it on the desk here for the time being.

Of course, there are more detailed accounts of the Lingdong catastrophe, either from folk sources or from other places.

But in the history books, in fact, the Lingdong catastrophe is only a short paragraph:

In the 17th year of Chengxing, there was a flood in Lingdong Road. The emperor sent imperial envoy Li Qian to lead the overall situation. The flood stopped the epidemic, and then there was a severe drought and a plague of locusts. The emperor ordered Sima Chuhang to stay in and fight against it.
Dayong's ruling and opposition forces mobilized their forces, and the people on the land of Lingdong united as one, and the thrilling and vigorous disaster relief process was just such a paragraph.

In contrast, in the history books at the corner of the table, there is also a catastrophe a hundred years ago:
In the 21st year of Junsheng, there was a famine in the north of the Yangtze River, and the people burned their bones, and people ate each other
It is also a short paragraph, I do not know how much suffering and tears it contains!
