Tongtian Bamboo Repair

Chapter 457 The rain keeps falling
The maid next to me is actually a divine maid, the person of a minor god. Her body is a mimosa, and she is a super social terror. Usually he always avoids outsiders, but in front of Xiangmao, he is a talkative one.

Mimosa shyly saw Xiangmao waking up, and her eyes suddenly became tearful. This is her favorite Lord God. What would she do without her? She is extremely timid and gets nervous when seeing outsiders. If she gets too nervous, she will faint. Her famous stunt is earth escape. If she encounters danger or outsiders, she will escape into the earth and wait for the outsiders to leave before emerging.

She has practiced earth escape to such perfection that it is almost as good as the Tao. However, after she was introduced to Xiangmao by Senior Yarrow, she gradually revealed her talkative side after being in contact with Xiangmao for a long time. Almost all people are chatty in front of acquaintances...

Xiangmao touched her shy head. The hair on her head was immediately tied up after being touched like this, as if she was very nervous. Shame also forgot about her sadness, she yelled: "I hate it, my hair is shrinking, it will take a long time to untie..." This was her instinct, and she had no way to solve it.

But this little episode made him forget his worries. She said cheerfully: "Sister Zunshen, look, this is a gift from the creatures you rescued. You fainted, and they are also very worried, so they have some conscience..."

He talked shyly and took out various gifts.

The heavy rain has been raining for so long, and all the places that should be flooded have been submerged. The materials and order of this world have been destroyed by the heavy rain. Now these gifts are no better than before. The gifts now are just some mixed fruits, pastries and small homemade crafts.

The earth has been flooded too much, and all supplies have become very tight. Fruits and cakes are considered luxury foods, and those handicrafts are worthless. Now that eating and clothing are a problem, who cares about handicrafts.

"They are also interested." Seeing these things, Xiangmao's eyes softened a lot. She is a kind person and is easily moved. Although these people's gifts are not worth mentioning in her eyes, they really warm her heart.

At this moment, her eyes suddenly focused, and she quickly picked out a small bamboo stick from the gift. She quickly asked: "Who gave this a gift?"

Looking at the person next to her shyly, she immediately shook her head and said, "This... I don't know..."

How could she possibly entertain those who gave gifts when she was afraid of society? Those who gave gifts left the gifts outside the house and waited for them to leave before she picked them up. In this case, how could she know who the gift-givers were.

Xiangmao also understood this. She sighed and said melancholy: "Do you know what this is? This is the true bamboo of Zizhu... Ever since... ugh..."

After hearing her words, Xiuxian understood immediately.

A few months ago, just a few days before the heavy rain, the purple bamboos in the world began to bloom and bear fruit in large tracts. The flowering and fruiting of purple bamboo is not a big problem, but the flowering and fruiting in such a large area makes lemongrass a little overwhelmed.

Zunshen also closed himself up and saw no one, and Zunshen's two auxiliary gods also disappeared. Lemongrass didn’t even know who to ask. Within a few days, large areas of these purple bamboos withered, and the bamboo branches that fell to the ground quickly rotted. The entire world, including Zizhu in the Divine Mansion, all died within a few days!

This unreasonable situation alarmed many gods, and these gods naturally knew that the aloof god was Zizhu who became enlightened! Does the death of these purple bamboos herald something?
Before those gods could react, it started to rain heavily in the world. The majestic heavy rain and the endless heavy rain disrupted the world, and all the gods began to rush to save the world. But as time went by, many gods' own palaces suffered disasters, and many gods even fell into sleep because of such changes!
The heavy rain in the world and the death of Zizhu made Xiangmao very concerned. In the following time, the world became precarious, but Xiangmao could not do much. Even though her status was at the level of a god, she could not do anything. Can't stop this world-class downpour.

She could only be busy rescuing people, rescuing humans, fairies, animals and plants to high mountains. Although this method saved some people, she also knew that if the heavy rain could not be solved, these high mountains would be in danger.

She couldn't imagine what it would be like if the whole world fell underwater...

Today, she got this Zizhu Zizhu, and she recognized it immediately. She had had a lot of dealings with Zizhu in her life, so how could she not recognize Zizhu's bamboo.

The bamboo didn't seem to be rotten. With a glimmer of hope, Lemongrass planted the bamboo in a flower pot. She poured some spiritual water into the flower pot, hoping that the bamboo would sprout and grow. If a purple bamboo appeared, she might be able to contact the god!

"Shame, take good care of this bamboo in the future." Xiangmao explained again. Nodding shyly and seriously, she looked at the flowerpot and kept it in her heart.

The heavy rain is still falling, and I don’t know where this large amount of rain comes from. Why does it keep raining for so long?

Xiangmao looked at the sky. She couldn't see through the thick clouds, but she couldn't find the answer behind the clouds. She shook her head, throwing away all unrealistic thoughts. She is not a fanciful person, on the contrary, she is a down-to-earth and pragmatic person.

Just like when she was in Jiuqu Shibawan, although she did not have the power to deal with the Kitchen God, she still used her own power to save the humans who were oppressed by the Kitchen God.

Now she is in the same situation as she was back then. She can't stop this unprovoked heavy rain, but she does her best to save the creatures tortured by the heavy rain.

It rained for another ten years...

"Master Xiangmao. This mountain can no longer hold up. Do we still want to continue migrating?" A god asked softly.

In front of this god, Xiangmao was wearing a purple robe. She looked at the water in front of her like a vast ocean, and then at the heavy rain in the sky. She frowned and asked, "How long can we hold on? Has the god who went looking for land come back?"

The god shook his head and said: "Comrades from Sishui Division believe that this place will be completely submerged in another month. If we don't act now, we will be very passive."

"You mean, the people from the Road Searching Division haven't come back yet?" Xiangmao asked keenly.

The god nodded slightly, and said in a low voice: "Nowadays, there are less and less land, and it is almost impossible to find land that can accommodate these people. I don't have any hope."

Yes, ten years have passed. The heavy rain never stops. Almost all the land is submerged under water. Even if some mountains are very tall, only a small area on the top of the mountain is flooded. There are not so many victims.

In ten years, with the help of gods, all the creatures in this world have died, and now only about 10,000 people are still alive. The rain in the sky is not ordinary rain. Ordinary rain doesn't last that long. This rain is very corrosive, and this corrosiveness is specifically targeted at wood and clothing. Any wood or clothing that is wetted by rain will quickly decay within a month. Moreover, this rain also has a strong chill. This chill is not cold, but a cold that penetrates the body.

Even aquatic fish, shrimps, and water monsters cannot stand this kind of cold. If you stay too long in this vast ocean of rain and rain, cold air will enter your body, ranging from rheumatism to paralysis in severe cases.

This rain doesn't give any living thing any way to survive!

"Can our wood still make big ships?" Xiangmao continued to ask.

"The people from the Baigong Department have done an inventory. The big ship can still be built for three more. It is enough for this time, but it will not be enough next time. We have a lot of wood in reserve, but it has been inaccessible in recent years. Now there is not much In stock."

Wood is the raw material for making large ships. This kind of wood was a consumable in the past, and no god's palace could produce a large amount of wood. But now, the gods have lost their divine palace, and supplies can no longer be replenished. In recent years, everyone has used old capital, and these old capital have been used less and less.

Large ships made of wood are also consumables. After making large ships, these large ships only have a lifespan of more than a month. After one month, these large ships will corrode and decompose...

"My lord, you have done your best. We really can't help those mortals this time. Why don't we just give up on them!" The god gritted his teeth and finally said this.

As soon as these words came out, Xiangmao turned her head sharply, with a stern look in her eyes, and said in a very stern tone: "Do you know what you are talking about? If you give up on them now, it is different from letting them go immediately. What difference does it make to die? If we let them die, why didn’t we do it earlier? Have we been wasting our efforts for these ten years?”

"If you want to do something, you must do it to the end! This is the oath you swore to me when you followed me! I also said at the beginning that if you don't want to come with me, you can do whatever you want. But you did. I can’t give up halfway!”

Citronella's harsh words made the god look ashamed. He gritted his teeth again and continued with the power of lemon grass: "Today is different from the past. We also had hope back then, but now, we have no hope! Sir, you have done enough, your divine power After years of consumption, you have been reduced from the level of a god to a minor god. If you fall further, you may not even be able to maintain your godhood. Without your godhood, you will not be able to protect yourself under this heavy rain!"

By the end of his speech, he was already hoarse. As a god who had followed Xiangmao for ten years, he had long been impressed by Xiangmao's deeds. Although he felt that he was considerate of the people, he asked himself that he could not be as good as Xiangmao. When a person uses his life to do something good for others, he will be great and unquestionable.

Xiangmao stared at him. Suddenly, Xiangmao reacted. She frowned and said, "No, you didn't answer my question directly. Have the people from the Road Search Division returned? Have they found it?" Land? You were just avoiding my question! Tell me the truth!”

The god gritted his teeth and said nothing. But at this time, Xiangmao shed tears. She looked at the vast ocean and murmured: "When the Lord God disappeared, he told me to protect the world. I promised him, so I should do it." Now, the heavy rain is continuing and the world is flooded. I am unable to stop the heavy rain. I just hope to save more lives. Finally, I am worthy of God’s trust in me.”

"Are you trying to make me fall into injustice now? Are you worthy of me?" Xiangmao said softly with tears in her eyes.

At this moment, the god was obviously panicked. Over the years, they had encountered countless difficulties, and Xiangmao had never shed tears in front of them. But this time...this time...

He couldn't help it anymore, and immediately fell to the ground, crying: "Sir, you have done your best to be benevolent and righteous. I can't blame you for this. This is an unstoppable natural disaster that is beyond human control! You are right. !”

Xiangmao shook his head, helped him up and said, "No, I haven't tried my best yet. I still have the power, and I can try again. I don't ask you to understand me, I just hope you can tell the truth to me. Have the people from Lu Si returned, and have they brought news about the land? "

Xiangmao's words made this god's lips become cowardly. Finally, he lowered his head and whispered: "They are back, and they also brought news of the land. However, the land will not last long. Your efforts will eventually end. It's not worth it, my lord."

"No, it's worth it. It's worth living so many lives. Even if you live just a moment longer, it's worth it. Life is priceless and there is no gain or loss." Xiangmao gently patted the shoulder of the fearful god and said After saying this, she turned and left...

Not long after, the gods of Baigongsi began to build the big ship, and the whole mountain became busy again.

Xiangmao was walking on a small hill. She used her magical power to block the heavy rain. On the top of the mountain, strange divine shields protect each hut, and in the hut are the remaining creatures. These creatures include humans, fairies, and some remaining animals and plants.

When Xiangmao walked down the street, everyone in the house looked at her through the windows and saluted and prayed for her. These people looked at Xiangmao with admiration and respect. In the past ten years, her actions have not only convinced the gods who follow her, but also made the creatures here follow her in life and death.

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from a room.

"Lord Lemongrass, you have done enough. If it doesn't work, just give up on us! We don't blame you, really!"

"Yes, Lord Lemongrass, just give us up. We won't leave. We will never leave again. You have done too much for us!"

"God Lemongrass!"

"God Lemongrass..."

These shouts were heard, but Xiangmao's face turned pale. She turned her head and saw the divine light sweeping towards everyone. There was relief, anxiety, sadness, and emotion on their faces. But there was no fear or terror at all.

They all spoke from the bottom of their hearts. After ten years of wandering around, they had had enough! The worst possible outcome is death. They have seen it a lot over the years, but they don't want to see Xiangmao take his life.

Lord Xiangmao has paid too much for them, and he can't even risk his life! This isn't fair to her!
