Looking south to Buzhou, Han Dynasty, Yuzhou.
The scorching sun hung in the sky, emitting light and heat unbridled, and the air seemed a little distorted.
The sky is clear, not to mention clouds, there is not even a little bit of wind.
The cracked ground is like a mouth that is difficult to close, telling the extent of the drought.
Groups of victims looked numb and walked towards Yecheng like zombies.
Everywhere they could see was dark yellow, and they had eaten all the vegetation, but this was far from enough for them to eat. From time to time, someone would be unable to hold on and fall to the ground.
"Gah—ga—" The vulture had been waiting aside for a long time, staring at these crumbling people. When it saw someone falling, it fluttered its wings and pounced on them.
However, it is still a step too late.
At the moment when the victim fell, many victims around him noticed it.
They turned their heads stiffly, as if evil spirits had awakened, their numb expressions turned ferocious and ferocious, and they surrounded him like a swarm.
After a while, the crowd gradually dispersed.
There was only a large pool of blood on the ground.
White bones were scattered all over the floor, covered with tooth marks.
At the same time, a high platform was erected in Qiao County, the seat of Yuzhou government, about three feet high.
There are twenty-eight constellation flags on the left and right sides of the high platform, and a table is placed on the top. There is an incense burner and candlestick on the table, and a gold medal is enshrined on it, with the name of the God of Thunder engraved on it.
There are five large tanks at the bottom, all filled with clear water. Willow branches are floating on the water, and there is an iron sign on the willow branch. The sign on the sign is the symbol of Thunder City.
There is a paper stove in the middle, and there are several lifelike figures, all of whom are the talisman-bearing messengers and the gods of the land.
A Taoist priest wearing straw sandals, a robe and a yellow scarf stood in front of the table, holding a sword and muttering something.
There was also a little Taoist priest standing next to him, holding a few talismans written on yellow paper in his hand.
The governor of Yuzhou led the officials in the city to kneel near the high platform. Looking out were countless people of Yecheng.
Since three years ago, Qiao County, no, it should be said that the entire Yuzhou has been in turmoil, with constant natural disasters.
First, there was an earthquake. Nearly half of the buildings in the city collapsed and countless people were killed and injured.
The earthquake was followed by a severe drought. /
It lasted for three full years and is not over yet.
Today's Yuzhou is no longer as prosperous as it once was in the hinterland of the Central Plains. Bandits and gangsters are rampant outside the county town. People are displaced from their homes and cannibalism has occurred in many places.
"God bless you! Save the people of Yuzhou!"
The governor of Yuzhou is only in his forties, but his hair has turned gray due to worry, and he looks like an old man in his fifties or sixties.
He knelt on the ground respectfully and kept praying in his heart.
This is also the wish of the people of Yuzhou as a whole.
The Taoist priest on the stage stepped on the Seven Stars, walked on dragon and tiger, walked around three times, opened his eyes suddenly, took the token in the hand of the little Taoist priest, threw it into the air, and shouted: "Come on the wind!"
The token ignited spontaneously without fire, and a wisp of white smoke floated faintly into the sky, as if it was conveying a message.
call--
In just a moment, a gust of wind blew slowly and grew stronger, causing the flags on the stage to rattle.
"The wind is blowing! The wind is really blowing! The Taoist priest of Taiping Road is really a god and can communicate with the gods!" The governor of Yuzhou looked at the sudden wind with a look of ecstasy on his face.
Needless to say, the people around him looked at the Taoist on the stage with fanatical eyes.
They did not dare to disturb the Taoist while he was casting spells, so they kept kowtowing. Some of them even smashed their foreheads, but they still refused to stop.
Compared with other places, Qiao County is the seat of Yuzhou, and the people in the city are relatively wealthy, and their situation is better than that of the refugees and disaster victims outside.
But, it’s just a little better!
Today, they are almost at the end of their rope.
Today's prayer for rain is their last hope!
The Huangjin Taoist took out another token and threw it into the sky, shouting: "Yunlai!"
In an instant, thick clouds covered the sky, blocking the sun, giving the earth a chance to breathe.
This time, not only the people around the high platform, but also the victims outside the city noticed the changes in the sky. They fell to their knees one by one, wanting to cry but their tears had long since dried up, and they kept kowtowing and praying to heaven.
On the stage, the Yellow Turban Taoist became more and more busy, adding incense, burning talismans, chanting incantations, and laying down signs.
"Thunder comes!"
Rumble, rumble, rumble——
Thunder and lightning flashed in the clouds, and golden snakes danced wildly.
Throw the token again.
"Here comes the rain!"
A drizzle of light rain fell in the sky, and it became heavier and heavier. In an instant, it turned into a heavy rain, pouring down.
"It's raining! It's raining! Woohoo! It's finally raining!"
"Great! God bless you! God bless you!"
"Quick! Go get the water!"
…
The entire Qiao County was instantly in chaos.
Everyone, even the civil servants and generals, were ecstatic. They raised their heads and opened their mouths, swallowing the rainwater with big mouthfuls.
More people began to look for all the water-containing tools they could find to collect the hard-won rainwater for future use.
Taoist Huang Jin stood on the high platform and looked coldly at the crowd below.
After half an hour, the prefect of Qiao County hurriedly shouted: "Taoist Master, that's enough! It's rained enough. If it rains more, I'm afraid it will be a disaster!"
Only then did Taoist Huangjin Shi Shiran take out the last token, throw it into the sky, and shout: "Yu Ting!"
The heavy rain began to gradually become smaller, and after a while, it stopped completely. Then the wind stopped and the clouds disappeared, and a ray of golden sunlight fell from the gap in the clouds, but it was no longer as fierce and vicious as before.
"Thank you so much, Taoist Priest! Taoist Priest is truly a god!"
The prefect of Qiao County walked forward quickly, bowed respectfully, and asked his subordinates to bring him a thousand taels of gold and silver. He said, "Taoist Master, this is a small gift of thanks from me. It is not respectful. Please accept it, Taoist Master." Down."
The Taoist priest Yun Danfeng waved his hand gently and refused: "I am a poor Taoist who travels everywhere under the orders of my master. He is supposed to save the world and help people. These money governors should be used to help the victims."
As soon as these words came out, the people around him became even more grateful, looking at the Taoist as if they were looking at a god, full of fanaticism.
The prefect was also greatly shaken. He kept praising the Taoist priest's virtue and promised to provide disaster relief in the name of the Taoist. He also asked the Taoist to follow him back home and teach him the teachings of Taiping Tao.
Taoist Huangjin did not refuse this time and went happily.
And just above their heads, Feng Granny, Xun Erlang, Tuiyun Tongzi, Buwu Langjun, and Xingyu Longwang followed the Taoist's "The rain stops", each collected their magic weapons and dispersed.
Deng Zhong and Deng Tianjun, the gods of the Lei Department, were about to leave with the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother. Suddenly they saw an auspicious cloud coming from the horizon. Looking up, they saw a Taoist priest with a face like a full moon, eyes as round as beads, and dressed in light yellow robes.
Deng Zhong was a little surprised: "Brother Li Dao, why did you come so early this time? Didn't you always come to treat the plague after a month in the past?"
The round-faced Taoist explained: "The 13th of next month is Master Pindao's birthday. All of us brothers will have to go to celebrate my master's birthday at that time, and we may not be able to spare time to go down to earth. Pindao wanted to get rid of this place as soon as possible. The matter is solved and the trouble is saved.”
"So that's it." Deng Zhong suddenly realized it, but he was a little worried: "Brother Taoist, the order we invited is to carry out the plague next month. Wouldn't it be wrong for you to advance it one month in advance?"
The round-faced Taoist said nonchalantly: "What's wrong with this! It's just a few mortals dying, it's nothing! The poor Taoist helps them enter reincarnation early, and also saves them from the suffering of the mortal world!"
Deng Zhong heard a hint of impatience in the round-faced Taoist's tone, so he didn't feel like saying anything more. After a few more pleasantries, he took the Thunder God and the Lightning Mother back to the heaven.
The round-faced Taoist waited for him to walk away, then curled his lips with a hint of disdain: "After all, he is just a casual cultivator with a shallow footing. Even if he got the glory of Uncle Wen Zhong and was lucky enough to become the Heavenly Lord of the Lei Department, he would still be What a climate!"
The round-faced Taoist opened his right hand, and a large purple flag appeared in the palm of his hand.
This flag is three feet long, and its entire body is purple. The top is inlaid with white bones and skulls, and there are strange and mysterious patterns painted on it. Wisps of black mist emerge, giving people an ominous feeling just by looking at it.
Swish——
The round-faced Taoist gently waved the purple flag, and countless dark purple light spots invisible to the naked eye fell from the air and penetrated into the bodies of the rain-soaked mortals below.
All the people who came into contact with this light spot couldn't help but shudder, their complexions began to turn pale, and their whole bodies were on fire, sometimes cold and sometimes hot.
The mortals didn't pay too much attention. They just thought that they were caught in the rain and caught a little cold. They had no idea that this was a precursor to the coming plague.
The round-faced Taoist did not stop, riding on the clouds and waving purple flags.
It wasn't until most of Yuzhou was sown that he stopped with satisfaction.
He was in no hurry to leave at this time.
Instead, he was condescending, as if he was admiring his own masterpiece.
Seeing those victims who were already weakened by the drought falling in pieces under the erosion of the disease, they groaned in pain.
A smug smile appeared on his face.
"Li Qi, the Herald of Plague in the West!"
At this moment, a sharp shout interrupted his thoughts.
Follow the sound.
Above the head, in the thick clouds, Yang Jian's arrogant figure appeared in silver armor and black cloak.
"Yang Jian?!" Li Qi was shocked and pretended to be calm: "What are you doing here?"
"How dare you ask me what I'm doing here!"
Yang Jian said coldly: "Li Qi, you spread the plague in the mortal world without authorization, causing countless deaths and injuries to the lives of Yuzhou. It can be seen that this is a serious crime that violates the laws of heaven!"
Li Qi secretly screamed in his heart.
Although he had the Jade Emperor's will, it was written that he would spread the plague in a month's time, not at this moment!
This is also a serious violation of the law of heaven!
Li Qi shouted loudly: "Yang Jian, don't talk nonsense! I have followed the orders of the Jade Emperor and came to Yuzhou to spread the plague. How can I say anything without permission!"
Yang Jian stretched out his hand and said, "Where is your Majesty's will? Take it out and let me see it!"
Li Qi blurted out: "Why should Pindao give it to you!"
After saying that, he regretted it. His words in front of Yang Jian were tantamount to digging a hole for himself.
Sure enough, Yang Jian sneered and said: "Li Qi, I am the judicial god in heaven, and I have the right to enforce the law and supervise various departments! Tell me, am I qualified to check your will?"
Li Qi said: "The imperial edict given by the Jade Emperor to Pindao was left in the Ministry of Plague. If you want to see it, go to my master and ask for it!"
Yang Jian didn't want to listen to him and said coldly: "According to the rules of heaven, when all the ministers in heaven go down to earth to perform official duties, they need to carry the imperial edict with them and act in accordance with the edict without making any mistakes. If you don't carry the imperial edict, you have already violated it. Tianlui, come with me to the Temple of Justice!"
Li Qi shouted sharply: "Yang Jian! You are deliberately causing trouble for Pindao! Pindao is too lazy to talk to you! If you don't believe it, just go to the Jade Emperor and read my copy! Then you will naturally see the real chapter!"
Li Qi was not afraid that Yang Jian would expose this matter to the Jade Emperor.
His own name is on the list of gods, and he is the chief god of the Ministry of Plague and the messenger of plague in the west.
Master Lu Yue is the direct disciple of Lord Tongtian, the first person (self-proclaimed) under Jiejiao, and the head of the righteous god of the plague tribe, Emperor Wenhuang Haotian.
Even the Jade Emperor couldn't punish him just because he moved the time of the plague a little earlier. The most he could do was to shut himself up for a period of time.
What he was afraid of was that Yang Jian would capture him in the Temple of Justice! /
In that case, the entire Plague Department would lose face!
Li Qi was anxious and turned around to leave in the clouds.
However, just after flying less than half a meter, Yang Jian stopped him in front of him.
"Yang Jian, don't bully others too much!" Li Qi was furious and waved the flag in his hand towards Yang Jian. The pimples turned into purple dots and flew towards Yang Jian.
He knew that Yang Jian was powerful, and he just wanted to force Yang Jian back and give himself a chance to escape.
However, Yang Jian did not move, only a silver light burst out from his forehead.
boom!
The purple light spots all over the sky evaporated directly, and all the pimples hidden inside were turned into ashes.
Li Qi's expression changed. Before he could take action again, his eyes suddenly blurred, and Yang Jian's figure had disappeared.
not good!
Li Qi knew something was wrong and hurriedly waved his fretful flag behind him.
However, his judgment was wrong.
There was nothing behind him, and there was no figure of Yang Jian at all.
The next second.
Li Qi felt that his hand was empty and the banner had been taken away by Yang Jian.
Immediately afterwards, a silver light surrounded his body and shrank suddenly inward.
Li Qi couldn't stand firmly and fell into the clouds.
Li Qi knew that he was not Yang Jian's opponent, but he did not expect that he had not even passed a round. He felt that he had lost all face, and became angry and said: "Yang Jian! Let go..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Qi's voice stopped abruptly, but Yang Jian disliked him for being noisy and directly blocked his senses.
Yang Jian picked up the flag and studied it for a while, and suddenly he had an idea.
"Go!" Yang Jian threw the flag into the sky.
Whoosh!
The flag turned into a purple light and flew out along the route Li Qi had just traveled.
Countless purple light fragments floated out from the bodies of various creatures and flew back to the banner.
However, there was not much joy on Yang Jian's face, but a frown on his face.
He was able to capture Lu Yue because Lu Yue took the decision without authorization and advanced the time of the plague by one month, which violated the laws of nature.
However, there are more similar natural disasters, but he is powerless!
Because those gods did not violate the laws of heaven, they were executing the Jade Emperor's will!
He could feel that the power of the Jiuding Formation had been weakened, and the luck of the human race was also declining!
Some people died, but not completely...
After the endless coma, Shi Yu suddenly stood up from the bed. If you want to read the latest chapter content, please download the Aiyue app and read the latest chapter content for free without ads.

He took a big breath of fresh air, his chest trembling.
Confused, confused, and all kinds of emotions came to my mind.
Where is this?
Afterwards, Shi Yu subconsciously observed his surroundings, and then became even more confused.
A single dormitory?
Even if he was successfully rescued, he should be in the ward now.
And my body...how could I not have any injuries at all?
With doubts, Shi Yu's eyes quickly swept across the room, and finally his eyes rested on a mirror beside the bed.
The mirror showed his current appearance. He was about seventeen or eighteen years old, and he looked very handsome.
But the problem is, this is not him! Download the Aiyue app and read the latest chapters for free without ads.
My previous self was a handsome young man in his twenties who had been working for a while.
And now, no matter how you look, this appearance is that of a high school student...
This change made Shi Yu stunned for a long time.
Don't tell him that the operation was successful...
The body and appearance have changed. This is not a matter of surgery or not, but magic.
He turned into a completely different person!
Could it be...that he traveled through time?
In addition to the mirror placed by the bedside, which was obviously not feng shui-friendly, Shi Yu also found three books next to it.
Shi Yu picked it up and took a look. The title of the book instantly silenced him.
"Essential Animal Breeding Manual for Beginner Breeders"
"Postpartum Care of Pet Pets"
"Evaluation Guide for Interracial Beast-Eared Girls"
Shi Yu:? ? ?
The names of the first two books are pretty normal, but what happened to the last one?
"cough."
Shi Yu looked solemnly and stretched out his hand, but his arm soon stiffened.
Just when he was about to open the third book and see what it was about, his brain suddenly felt a sharp pain, and a large number of memories came flooding back.
Icefield City.
Pet animal breeding base.
