Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Chapter 51 What I see can be a fairy mountain?Meet the First Emperor!
Those with fish scales are also bone scales.

As the body grows up, the older it gets, the harder it is, the so-called getting stronger with time.

People with scales in the world don't know who they are, but fish scales are extremely unique.

Besides fish, only one other creature has it.

The genus of the flood dragon!

All things are born, and all things are equal.

Human beings are divided into gods, humans, heavenly beings, and mortals, and beasts are also divided into divine beasts, spiritual beasts, and mortal beasts.

Jiao Zhe is a spirit beast

If a dragon passes through the heavenly tribulation in 500 years, it will turn into a dragon and ascend to heaven and earth by then, capable of doing anything!

It takes a thousand years for an anaconda to become a dragon, and there are only a few kinds of big snakes that can live for a thousand years, and this white snake is definitely not one of them.

However, this white snake is transforming into a dragon at this moment!

It is for attunement!
A qi refiner refines the qi of the world and the way of the world.

This is the so-called change of fate against the sky and take the merit of good fortune!

At this time, the white snake's whole body was covered with cracks, and a vast and vigorous breath came out from the cracks, like a scent of fragrance, and a slight brilliance flowed through the cracks.

It seemed to be slowly growing in size, and the originally dull "hissing" sound became clear at this time.

At this time, the waves on the sea surface became more turbulent, and the stormy waves hit the shore, and the water mist rose into the sky.

The colorful light in the water mist is getting brighter and brighter, and there are mountains coming out of the sea, misty and hazy, like a fairyland.

There are shadows and shadows, as if there are pavilions, towers, eaves and brackets, which are not like the human world.

Spectacular, mirage!
This dragon is also present, and the dragon can fly clouds, and if it meets water, it can spread rain!

but……

Qin Tian glanced at the sky, the sky was still clear and cloudless.

With a slight smile, although the transformation of a snake into a dragon is allowed by the way of heaven, it must also be punished by heaven.

Because of the enlightenment, it is to use the Taoist sound to open up the spiritual wisdom of the great supernatural person's perception of the heaven and the earth!
Therefore, the catastrophe of the white snake is inevitable!

With the power of the white snake at this time, it is absolutely impossible to withstand the catastrophe.

After all, under the Heavenly Tribulation, one must either have profound morals and be able to directly resist the Heavenly Tribulation, or one needs to have great merits and virtues in one's body to offset the crime of disrespecting the heavens, so the power of the Heavenly Tribulation will be reduced.

And this white snake, what merits and virtues does it have?
However, Qin Tian already had a plan in mind.

The white snake turns into a dragon, and it has its own calamity cloud.

Jiao can move clouds and spread rain when it meets water.The white snake is young, so naturally it can't walk through many clouds, but the robbery cloud is so big that it can cover the sky and block out the sun!
Here is the East China Sea again, with abundant water vapor.

It just so happens that Langya County is suffering from drought at this time, and countless people will starve to death.

If at this time, we use the power of the catastrophe to spread the clouds and rain, and live the people, it will naturally have great merit!

In addition, Qin Tian was protecting and preaching from the side.

Heavenly Tribulation, easy to pass!
……

On the rocky beach, the white snake is turning into a dragon.

In the distance, in front of the altar, the ceremony of praying for rain has also progressed to the next step.

On the low altar, a raging fire had already been ignited at this time, and several village elders sat aside, throwing the big fish as a sacrifice into the fire.

At this time, Young Duan was holding clay and other objects in his hands, painting an earthen dragon in front of the altar.

The earth dragon is three feet long, with a very simple shape, lying on the ground with teeth and claws.Shaoduan carefully wiped the whole body of Tulong with white clay.

There is a big river named Jiaoshui in the north of Langya County, and Yishui is a tributary of Jiaoshui.And the glue got its name because the mud of this river is like glue, white in color, just like paste.Later generations called this mud Guanyin soil.

The earth dragon painted in white looks much more sacred. Shaoduan held his breath and looked devout, while the surrounding villagers also knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe.

When a child moved, a village elder covered his mouth and slapped him. There was a sound of whimpering, and several village elders glared at him.

The young man didn't look sideways. He painted the earth dragon with cinnabar and nodded his eyes. Then he breathed a sigh of relief.

As if scanning the surrounding villagers, Shaoduan secretly sighed in his heart.

Praying for rain is an extremely sacred thing. The so-called great event of the country lies in the sacrificial and military affairs!

It means that offering sacrifices is as important as fighting. If there were sacrifices in the past, the young and strong men in Langya County would come out in empty groups to collect firewood within a radius of tens of miles, so that the bonfires could be seen even to the sky. See.

In addition, it is necessary to build a hundred-foot earth dragon. After all, the bigger the earth dragon, the better it can rain.

What a grand occasion that is?
It's not like now, there are only dozens of old people and yellow-haired people, and the pile of earth dragons is only three feet in size, and one of them is almost dead.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the stone road construction site in the distance. Langya originally had a palace, which was the palace of the ancient king of Yue, but Li Si said that it was the residence of the subjugated king, and it was unknown, so he ordered a new palace to be built.

In addition, it is also said that the first emperor wanted to go to Langyatai to worship the gods of the four seasons, as a show of piety, and all those who walked seventy miles from the palace to Langyatai had to use white stones as their way.

Especially in the ten miles near Langya Terrace, gravel should not be used, but large stones should be used.

And the young and strong were rushing to work day and night, and just finished repairing the palace, they were forced to go to the mountains to collect white stones and carry stones to build roads.

It is heard that the West Mountain has been emptied, and Baishi needs to be carried from thirty miles away at this time.

For thirty miles, I carried heavy rocks on my back and faced the scorching sun. Many people were crushed to death by huge rocks on the road.

When Cai Shaoduan led people to pray for rain just now, he happened to see a stone bearer fell to the ground, crushed by a huge boulder, his breastbone was broken, struggling desperately, calling for help, his voice was as short as a jackdaw's night horn, and he died in a moment , only the hands and feet are still twitching.

Because of his disheveled hair and face, he no longer resembles a human being, Shaoduan never recognized who he is, but he is also a son, a husband, and a father after all!
Shaoduan does not hold the county's population yellow book, but according to the county magistrate, due to the urgent urging of Ting Weisi, more than [-]% of the young and strong have been lost!

Thirty percent!
The weather was cool before, so they lost [-]%. Now the weather is getting hotter and hotter. After the stone road is built, how much of the young people in Langya County will be left?
It is heard that the First Emperor has come to an end, and may enter Langya today.

I also heard that the First Emperor came all the way to punish lawless people, put an end to injustice and punish those who had been wronged.

However, even if the First Emperor is here today, can those who were crushed to death by huge rocks, exhausted from building palaces, and killed by the sun survive?
Moreover, it is not enough to sow seeds when it rains, but it takes a few days after the rain to restore the earth's atmosphere before sowing.

The young and strong in the county are all building stone roads, and the sowing depends entirely on women and children.

Although there are five days in the farming season, if it does not rain today, this year will be over!

As for worshiping heaven...

is that useful?
If the sky is not benevolent, what should we do, Li Yuan?
Last year Langya was hit by a drought, but it was never severe, nor was it late for farming, so although the harvest was slightly reduced, there were still people alive.

Last winter, Shao Duan led the people of Langya County to offer sacrifices to the gods of the four seasons, praying for good weather this year.

As a result, since the beginning of spring this year, there has not been a drop of rain!

However, leading a group of old people and children to pray for rain is already the only thing Shaoduan can do!

He suddenly yelled: "Dancing!"

More than twenty young children came out shyly. They all wore a bark mask on their faces at this time, which looked a little hideous and a little cute.

There was a dull sound of "铛", but a villager rang a small bronze bell in his hand, and the young children on the field began to surround the altar under the command of the villager and began to do various things. The child is ignorant.

According to etiquette, praying for rain requires a yellow bell to play Dalu.However, Langya County is poor, and no one present is qualified to use such sacrificial vessels, so they can only be replaced by bronze bells.

And the young children are playing the role of mountain ghost at this time, which is the so-called Nuo dance.Nuo dance originated from the battle between the Chinese ancestor Huangdi and Chiyou, and it was a national ceremony of the Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Tianzi performed the Nuo dance sacrifice every year to adjust the yin and yang of the four seasons, so as to ensure that the cold and heat are suitable, the weather will be smooth, the grains will be abundant, the people and animals will be safe, and the country will be rich and the people's livelihood will be prosperous.In this way, praying for rain has become a common practice.

The children didn't know how to worry, and at first they were a little shy, afraid of the mountain ghost masks on each other's faces.However, after a while, the childlike innocence gradually emerged, and they began to play and play, all innocent and innocent, with the meaning of a mountain ghost.

However, at this time, no one appreciated the boys' Nuo dance, and the villagers all looked worriedly at Shaoduan, and looked expectantly at Shaoduan.

Shao Duan also took a deep breath, he suddenly stepped forward, raised his hands above his head, waved his sleeves reverently a few times, and threw himself fiercely into the dust.

"Shangxie!" he said in a stern voice.

"Government without restraint makes the people sick. Why doesn't it rain, to the extreme?"

His voice was slightly choked.

"The palace worships you. The woman pays homage to Shenghe. Why doesn't it rain, even to the extreme?"

Shao Duan continued to pray to the altar, full of grief and indignation.

"Baoju walks with you, and your slanderous husband is happy. Why doesn't it rain, so far?"

The young man was already in tears.

God!
Could it be that the political affairs are out of order, making the people miserable?
Why has the drought and no rain reached such an extreme level?
Is it because of the tallness of the palace? Or is it because the woman's words are useful? How can there be such a long drought and no rain!
Is it because of the prevalence of bribery? Or is it because of the rise of clever talkers and slanderers? Why is God so cruel and ruthless, and there is no rain in the drought?
This is a common practice when praying for rain, and it is a fixed prayer, but at this time, it is inexplicably appropriate to read it, which makes Shao Duan unstoppable.

Or, God's punishment!

……

On the stone beach, the white snake is turning into a dragon, strange scenes occur frequently, and thunder disasters are coming; under the Langya Terrace, the young man is praying for rain.

At this time, a dragon boat was slowly moving forward on the Yishui River.

The dragon boat is magnificent, three stories high, like a moving palace. It has become a trickle of Yishui, and it seems that it cannot bear it.

On the shore, there were more than a thousand bare-backed folk who were pulling the thick ropes forward under the scorching sun. However, no matter how hard they tried, the dragon boat still moved forward inch by inch at a turtle speed.

There is no way, the dragon boat is too big, and this year the Yishui River has been cut off again.Even though ditches were dug upstream, diverted water from other rivers, and by going downstream, it was only possible to ensure that the dragon boat could barely float.

At this time, the bottom of the dragon boat has been plowed into the mud, and the turned up white mud is clearly visible.

Two regiments of strict military formations are rushing along with the dragon boat on the bank. At a glance, there are at least tens of thousands of people.

There is only one person in this world who deserves to enjoy this lineup, and that is the First Emperor!

At the top of the dragon boat, there is a lobby, which is as magnificent and magnificent as the Qin Palace, but it only lacks the nine jade steps.

At this time, the First Emperor, who was wearing a black dragon robe, sat cross-legged beside a desk.

The first emperor sitting next to him was a middle-aged man with a beautiful long beard, bright eyes, a square face, and a graceful appearance as he waved his sleeves.

It was none other than the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, Tingwei Jiuqing, Li Si.

The First Emperor was reading the bamboo slips, while Li Si knelt down and sat aside, without saying a word, and the hall was completely silent.

"Prime Minister!" A hoarse and deep voice suddenly sounded, it was the First Emperor.

"Here you are!" Li Si Yingying bowed down, her movements pleasing to the eye.

However, the first emperor obviously didn't care about Li Si's salute at this time. He put down the bamboo slips in his hand thoughtfully, followed the wide-open cabin door, looked in the direction of the dragon boat, and said hoarsely: "You will never be punished." What's the matter?"

"Report to the first emperor, Si stayed in Langya for three months, and there were 31 cases of unjust imprisonment, more than [-] alchemists were captured, all of them were beheaded!" Li Si's voice was clear and clear, and he saluted like a ritual.

"Langya County has hundreds of unjust prisons, but the local officials are in Yurou Township?" The First Emperor's eyes fell on Li Si's face like lightning.

"Please know that the first emperor, the local officials are to blame, but the culprit is the alchemist!" Li Si lowered his eyebrows and looked down.

"Alchemist, hmph, alchemist!" Although Li Si didn't finish speaking, the First Emperor knew that it was his own fault.

He stood up irritably and walked around on the smooth floor with his bare feet.

"Alchemists and gods and the like can all die!" He said viciously.

"But..." The First Emperor's voice suddenly dropped, and he only said one word and then stopped speaking.

Although Li Si bowed to the ground, his eyes were burning.

As the first emperor's prime minister, he was very good at figuring out what the first emperor wanted to say, so he naturally knew what the first emperor wanted to say.

The First Emperor, who lived for six generations, unified the six kingdoms and conquered the world. He was the sage king who opened up the world.

However, even if he is a holy king, he is still a human being, not a god!
Although no one in the world dares to say how long the First Emperor lived, and those who dared to speak out have long been beheaded, everyone in the world actually knows that the First Emperor is nearly half a century old.

Those who are half a hundred have a long life!
This is true whether compared to the common people or to the previous kings of Qin!

Moreover, although the first emperor had never taken the medicine of immortality concocted by the alchemists, no one knew what he did while living with the alchemists in the 270 palaces. Served Dan!

Otherwise, the First Emperor would not have aged so quickly, not to mention that he was already moody at this time!
"Your Majesty Qizuo," he said seriously, "what the immortal alchemist said is all illusory!"

"There have been so many princes, kings, and even emperors in ancient times. It is said in ancient books that there are those who ride a crane to the West, some who are immortal, and even some who are extraordinary and holy."

He paused slightly, and then continued: "Now, my Great Qin has unified the universe, where are these people?"

"Another example, it is said in ancient books that beyond the sea of ​​Langya, there are fairy mountains."

He bowed respectfully to the ground, and said clearly: "However, Wei Weijie has been in Langya for more than a few months. Si also stayed in Langya County for more than a month and went to sea several times. How did you discover the so-called genus of Xianshan?"

"..."

There was no sound, Li Si was a little strange, why didn't the first emperor return to him?
He secretly raised his head, only to see that Emperor Shihuang was staring towards the east in a daze, with ecstasy and surprise on his face.

What happened here, and why did Emperor Shi Huang get into such a state of affairs?
"S!"

Just when Li Si couldn't figure it out, Shi Huangdi was already overjoyed, his voice was full of surprise, and he called him softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing something.

"Take a quick look, is this a fairy mountain? Are there any immortals?"

"Immortal mountain? Immortal?"

Li Si didn't know what to do, he walked to the side of the first emperor, and followed the first emperor's gaze...

The next moment, he froze suddenly, his face changed wildly!

I saw a mountain in the distance in front of me standing above the sky, misty and radiant, with five colors of brilliance coming out of the mountain.

It seems that the legendary fairy mountain really came to the world!
