Chapter 229 Food
Blue in the sky There are no clouds in the sky, and the hot sun scorches the earth. It didn't look like the dark clouds just now.

"What's the matter? It wasn't overcast just now, was it about to rain? Why did it suddenly change again?"

"I don't know if I wait." Several Taoist priests around said with a bitter face.

On the high platform, the old Taoist took up the token again, stepped on Yubu, and gave orders again, but the dark clouds dissipated again before they gathered.

After trying several times in a row, the rain was still unable to fall, and the old Taoist had no choice but to descend from the altar.

"Daoist Xuanling, Daoist Xuanling, what's going on?" As soon as the old Taoist stepped down from the platform, the county governor brought several officials around to ask.

"Sir County Guard, Poor Daoist cultivation base is shallow, and it is not entrusted by adults." The old Taoist slowly shook his head and said, "I tried this rain prayer a few times, but it still couldn't rain."

"But aren't there enough sacrifices for the three animals? Or is there another reason?" the county governor asked.

"It's not like that. The specific reason is not clear to Poor Daoist." The old Taoist shook his head and said.

Lu Fan saw the dissipating dark cloud brows tightly knit, the momentum just now, it was about to rain, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye, and he couldn't understand the reason.

Unable to understand the situation, Lu Fan did not continue to investigate, and turned around and rode toward the city. When I came to the city gate of Yuzhou, although the soldiers at the gate were wearing armor and holding sharp blades, they did not stop Lu Fan from entering. These soldiers should have stopped the victims.

The scene in the city is much better than outside the city, at least the homeless people are gone. It's just that this city is also very depressed. Even if it was a small county before, there were people coming and people going on the streets of the city, but this Yuzhou, as the state capital, was very clear.

There are few pedestrians on the street, even if there are one or two, they are in a hurry and look disheveled. Not to mention the stalls on both sides of the street, even the open shops are pitifully small, and every household is closed.

But these are just ordinary people, and this drought has basically no effect on the Aristocratic Family and the wealthy.

Lu Fan rode his horse around the city for half a circle, and finally found a shop that was still open. Lu Fan dismounted and walked in. It's just that this shop seems to have no customers for a long time, and even the shop assistant who runs the hall doesn't know where to hide and be lazy.

“dong dong dong!”

“The store has a customer!” Lu Fan knocked on the counter and shouted.

"Come, come!" A voice in the back hall suddenly sounded, and then a silhouette was seen running out of the back hall.

After seeing that Lu Fan was a Taoist priest, he was slightly taken aback, and then he said: "Does the Taoist priest want to live in the store?"

"Stay in the store." Lu Fan nodded and said, "You Is there a clean room here?"

"Yes, there is, the room of the small shop is clean and tidy, which is famous in this Yuzhou City." The shopkeeper said with a smile.

Lu Fan said: "Okay, come to a room, and also arrange for my horse, eggs and black beans concentrate 30 catties."

Said him Loosen the reins, unbuckle the bottle gourd, and lay out a few loose silver coins on the table.

"Ten kilograms of good wine."

"Ah? Oh oh." The store hurriedly responded, then turned his head loudly shouted: "Liu Fu, Liu Fu, where are you going to die? , come here, bring the guest's horse to the backyard, and pour 30 catties of concentrate!"

"Come, come." A shop assistant ran from the backyard and led the horse. past.

"The Taoist priest will bring you here, and I'll sell you wine." The shopkeeper turned around and picked up the bottle gourd and said, but after taking a closer look at the bottle gourd, the shopkeeper hesitated and said, "The Taoist priest, you This bottle gourd doesn't seem to be able to hold ten pounds of wine."

"The store owner can rest assured that it can be filled, and if it can't hold it, it is counted as ten pounds." Lu Fan waved his hand.

The shopkeeper glanced at the Taoist priest suspiciously, but still picked up the bottle gourd and started pouring wine into it, because he was worried that it wouldn't hold, he didn't take the five jins of wine grapes. I took a pound of wine, but I poured it three times in a row. The bottle gourd showed no sign of being full. The shopkeeper moved slightly, then picked up a pot of five pounds of wine grapes and poured it into it.

I saw that the five jins of old wine were also easily filled. At this time, the store didn't understand that I had encountered an expert, so I didn't dare to neglect, and quickly filled the ten jins of old wine, and then respectfully Deliver the bottle gourd to Lu Fan.

Lu Fan took the bottle gourd, hung it around his waist, and found a clean place to sit down.

"The shopkeeper, bring your signature dishes to the table."

"The Taoist priest will wait a moment, I will tell the kitchen to do it." The shopkeeper turned around and entered kitchen.

Lu Fan poured a glass of wine and took a sip. The wine was mellow, although not as good as Fenjiu, but not bad. As for those fifty years of Fenjiu, who asked him to use the Rainfall Technique before, when there was not even a cloud there, he could only use wine to cast the spell, and as a result, the fifty-year-old Fenjiu was used up like this
No Let Lu Fan wait a little longer, and in less than a quarter of an hour, the restaurant will deliver the food. Only then did Lu Fan pick up his chopsticks and start eating. During this period of time, I was sleeping in the wind. Although there was a lot of food in the bottle gourd, they were all snacks and the like, and I was tired of eating too much.

"The store owner, the weather is very dry and the crops are not harvested, so the government has no porridge and grain?" Lu Fan asked while eating.

"Porridge?" The shopkeeper sneered, but he seemed to have thought of something very quickly. He hurriedly went out and looked around. After seeing no one on the street, he walked over cautiously. said.

"The porridge is naturally served."

"Since the porridge is served, why are all the hungry people outside the city yellow and skinny?" Lu Fan asked.

"There is no food in the city." shopkeeper's whispered.

"The Taoist priest didn't see it, the porridge was so thin that it could look in the mirror, and it was only one meal a day. It was good that the victims didn't starve to death."

As the state capital, can the state run out of food?" Lu Fan disbelieved.

"Yuzhou naturally has food, but it's all given to the officials who are greedy. There is food for the victims." The shopkeeper shook his head and said.

"Greedy? Where is the greed?"

"Who knows." The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "What are these officials doing to make Fire Dragon burn the warehouse? Yin Soldier borrowed food, who knows where the food went?"

"Right. I heard that in two days, the Imperial Court's disaster relief food will arrive. It is said that there are 100,000 stone, if this is true Yes, the refugees outside the city will be saved. After a day or two of cooking, there will be food to eat."

"The shopkeeper, do you know who is begging for rain outside Tian City today?" Lu Fan asked.

"You mean the old Divine Immortal?" The shopkeeper said with a look of reverence: "That is the famous living Divine Immortal in Yuzhou, the Taoist priest Xuanling."
