From clam spirit to mirage dragon fairy

Chapter 25
No one likes war, especially in ancient feudal society.

Longmen County is not an important military base, but a remote place in the south.

This is not the fiefdom of any prince.

Logically speaking, we should not suffer military disasters.

However, the King of Dian sent [-] troops directly to the north, and the court was besieged on all sides. For a time, the troops were unable to assemble, and the King of Dian was beaten all the way to the Canglan River.

The imperial army and the army of the King of Dian faced each other across the river, and for a while no one could do anything to defeat the other.

But overall, the court suffered a big loss.

Through the discussions among those scholars, Guyang had a somewhat vague impression of the area of ​​the Great Yin Dynasty.

The Canglan River is like the Yangtze River in previous lives.

There are many river systems in the south of the Yangtze River with a warm climate and very rich fertility, and there are many plains in the north of the Yangtze River.

The Canglan River is an important bridge connecting the north and the south.

The King of Dian occupied the south of the Canglan River and immediately cut off the connection between the north and the south.

During the confrontation with the imperial court, the King of Dian quickly divided his troops and captured various places in the south of the Yangtze River.

After all, this is an internal dispute within the royal family, and many officials simply don't know which side to take.

Some of them had good relations with the King of Dian and immediately defected to the King of Dian.

Some wavered, but it was a pity that the army immediately surrendered as soon as the sword was placed on their neck.

The few hard-core generals who were also short of troops quickly captured the city and were used as a typical example to scare the monkeys.

In a short period of time, the King of Dian's army expanded from 15 to [-].

With powerful soldiers and the granary in the south of the Yangtze River as his foundation, the King of Dian suddenly became more prestige and had the power to rule across the river with the imperial court.

Longmen County welcomed the envoy of the King of Dian shortly after the Spring Festival.

As soon as Xu Zhongwen, the county magistrate, received the news, he fled overnight with several of his cronies and disappeared without a trace.

Can't escape.

Others can surrender the King of Dian, but he cannot.

He may not come from a famous family, but his father was the secretary of the late prince, a proper member of the new emperor's sect, and the whole family was in the capital.

Xu Zhongwen dared to surrender, but the King of Dian did not dare to ask for it.

After Xu Zhongwen absconded, the King of Dian quickly arranged for a new county magistrate to take office.

As soon as the new county magistrate took office, he immediately began to recruit troops, pay and provide food to support the front line.

The number of men in the county who were over 16 and under 40 suddenly dropped from ten to sixty-seven, and the entire Longmen County was in a state of depression.

These are all disputes within human beings, and Guyang, as a demon clan, cannot intervene.

It's just that the war affects not only the human race, but also the demon races like them.

Since the war, the golden dragon of luck in the Yin Dynasty has been divided into several small dragons.

Without the suppression of the Luck Golden Dragon, the turbid air between heaven and earth rises, and the evil spirit of evil soldiers fills the world.

Gu Yang felt as if a shackle had been lost on his body, and the whole demon felt much more relaxed.

It is true that evildoers appear in troubled times.

Guyang devotes himself to cultivation and does not want to cause harm to the world, but that does not mean that other demon clans can also stay contentedly.

There have been several supernatural incidents in Longmen County in the past few days.

Wugou patrolled both sides of the lake and said that every night when the Yin Qi rises, there are always ghosts wandering outside, which has scared many people.

Guyang patrolled the lake and found many ghost water ghosts appearing out of nowhere.

There are now more than a hundred ghosts at the bottom of Yingyue Lake.

These ghosts are not all water ghosts who drowned in Yingyue Lake.

Some were missing arms and legs, wearing bamboo armor and cloth, covered in blood. They must be soldiers who died on the front line.

Some were unkempt men and women trapped in pig cages with resentful faces, and adulterers and adulterers who came from nowhere.

There were also many baby girls crawling all over the floor and crying loudly. They must have been drowned baby girls.

Maybe the turbid evil energy between heaven and earth is not strong enough, or maybe the golden dragon of luck still has some power left.

These ghosts all stayed dormant under the water and did not come ashore to harm anyone.

However, their range of activities is gradually approaching the shore from the deep water area, and they will go ashore one day if they can't.

There is currently no way to deal with these ghosts, Gu Yang, and they cannot all be killed.

Therefore, we can only rely on Wugou chanting sutras to save them and let them enter reincarnation.

It's just that one batch after another has been transformed, and the number of ghosts has not only not decreased, but has become increasingly strong.

Guyang wanted to find out the origins of these ghosts, but unfortunately, all of them were obsessed with resentment and could not find out anything at all.

I only heard a few words about evil spirits and yang energy from a few old ghosts.

Guyang speculated that the army was stationed on both sides of the Canglan River. The evil and yang energy of the army was too fierce, which drove the ghosts in the river to Yingyue Lake.

The cold wind has subsided, the ice and snow have melted, and it’s the rainy season again.

It has been raining continuously for several days, and even the water in the lake has risen a lot, almost overflowing the dam.

"It's not good."

Guyang looked at the dark clouds in the sky.

There is nothing surprising about the rainy weather in the south. Not to mention the next seven or eight days, even the next ten and a half months are common.

But it was all sparse drizzle, and it didn't stop.

But this year the rain has not stopped, and it has a tendency to get heavier and heavier.

Ordinary people just complain that too much rain may affect farming.

But Guyang could sense that there was an ominous aura in the sky that was falling to the world along with the rain.Two days ago, Wugou cried and said that she suddenly saw a flood. Many believers were struggling and shouting in the water, which made her very sad.

Guyang tentatively observed the water vapor between heaven and earth.

Water vapor is gathering from all directions, as if there are thousands of waves roaring in the sky.

Guyang knew that Wugou was not just a rumor, but the gods sensed that the disaster was coming.

Floods are ruthless. Since ancient times, countless people have been destroyed and displaced by floods.

And since ancient times, great disasters must be followed by great plagues, and plagues are more terrible than floods.

War disasters, floods, and the plague after the flood, it seems that this year will not be so easy.

Guyang is just a little demon, unable to fight against the general trend of the world.

He could only ask Wujia to remind the people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait to build dams and prepare for the coming flood.

As for whether those officials would listen to the suggestions of the people, that was beyond Gu Yang's ability to guess.

Guyang himself is very busy every day now.

While suppressing the increasing number of ghosts at the bottom of the lake, they must constantly absorb and refine the water vapor in the sky.

The magical power of dragons to absorb water can continuously compress and condense all water sources in the world into spiritual water.

This is also the reason why the Dragon Clan can swallow water from all over the world despite having only such a big body.

Guyang's current limited mana can only swallow about a hundred tons of water vapor every day. No matter how much it is, he will not be able to condense it in time.

On normal days, Guyang would be happy to refine water vapor, because the spiritual water he produced would be of great benefit to him. It would not only assist his practice but also provide him with additional means.

But now the air of disaster is permeating the sky and the earth, and even the rainwater is polluted.

It would take a long time for the water vapor that Guyang swallowed to be washed away, and it felt like the gain was not worth the loss after consuming so much mana.

When Guyang was absorbing the water vapor, Wu Gu also ran out to help, and even the old turtle and Carp King who had been dozing off also popped up to help.

Everyone is a water tribe. Although it is not as powerful as Guyang's dragon water-absorbing magical power, it can still refine a lot of water vapor.

But even so, it is still a drop in the bucket. The water vapor in the sky is getting heavier and heavier, and the rain is getting bigger and bigger. The water in the lake has already overflowed the dam.

The people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, regardless of gender or age, are not fools. This is a major matter related to their wealth and life. One by one, they dug rocks and carried soil and braved the heavy rain to start building the dam.

Guyang was absorbing the water vapor from the sky that day when he suddenly felt a violent surge in the lake water.

A roaring sound rolled from the direction of Fronze.

Gu Yang used water to sense and felt a dragon energy a thousand times stronger than his own coming out from the depths of Fulongze with unparalleled momentum.

Coupled with the roaring sound of the torrent, a bad thought suddenly came to mind.

"Walk the dragon——"

The dragon deep in Fulongze will take the opportunity to break out of Fulongze and enter the sea to transform into a dragon.

"People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait quickly retreated to higher ground, as the floods were approaching and were unstoppable.

Hurry up and save your life——"

Guyang used his magic power to vibrate the air and make a thunderous sound.

At this time, Wugou also sensed the crisis in the direction of Fulongze, and did not bother to hide that he spit out the golden elixir of relics and turned it into a statue of Guanyin, which stood in the air.

"There was a dragon in Fulongze who took the opportunity to turn into a dragon. The dam was no longer able to withstand it. People on both sides of the Taiwan Strait quickly went to the mountains to take refuge."

"The Clam Fairy Queen, the Clam Fairy Queen has appeared."

The people who were building the dam were in a panic.

The smarter one dropped his things without saying a word and returned home, collecting gold, silver and other valuables and taking his family up the mountain to take refuge.

The slower ones only know how to kneel and pray and cannot move at all.

Some elderly people who had experienced floods sat slumped in the mud and cried loudly, lamenting that the injustice in the world had caused them to suffer such a disaster.

……

All of a sudden, all living beings are in front of you.

At this time, the water was already gushing out of the canyon waterway, and waves several feet high poured in like a wall of water with overwhelming force.

"Monster, retreat quickly——"

The dragons from Fulongze haven't arrived yet, but those little demons have already been rushed to the canyon with them.

The water is filled with demonic aura, and there are countless demon clans hiding in it.

At this time, the Buddhist and Taoist masters on the mountains on both sides of the canyon waterway could no longer sit still and ignore it.

With a loud shout, a sword light shot up into the sky and turned into countless sword energy falling from the sky into the water.

This sword killed countless water demons, and even the water was dyed bright red.

"Amitabha"

The expression of mercy on the face of the old monk on Crouching Tiger Mountain disappeared, and his whole body was surrounded by the Buddha's light and his eyes widened with anger, just like the Vajra Warrior in the temple who defeated the demon King Ming.

The golden Buddha light filled half of the sky and broke through the dark clouds, shone on the lake with the masculine energy of the great sun.

The raging flood seemed to be blocked by a big mountain, and it was unable to break out of the canyon channel for a while.

"Disciples of Xuanzhenguan listen to my orders and work with me to subjugate demons."

The Taoist priest on the mountain gave an order, and more than a dozen sword lights flew up from the Taoist temple.

The old Taoist priest transformed into a sword and flew into the depths of Fulongze, seemingly to fight the dragon.

The remaining Taoist priests may not have enough skills, so they can only use flying swords to fly around in the floods, spreading spells and sword energy to kill the little monsters in the water.

"The monks of Jinguang Temple quickly opened the mountain gate and went down the mountain to help the people who went up the mountain to take refuge."

The old monk did not enter Fulongze, but still used Buddha's light on the mountain to suppress the flood.

His disciples didn't know if they had magic power, so they didn't come out to fight the water demon, but went down the mountain to save the people.
