Song You held the letter and read it over and over.
As early as three days ago, Jiang Dadu traveled to Yizhou as a spirit, but was rushed back by his master as soon as he finished speaking. He already had a vague feeling that he might not be able to get a reply.
I don’t have much analytical basis, and I can’t name a few reasons. It’s just that whether you are with people or things, you will naturally become familiar with them after spending time together. Sometimes, without too much thinking, the first thought that flashes through your mind is already the best analysis result.
The letter in hand is confirmation.
Master probably not only didn't reply to the letter, but also asked Master Kuroyu not to reply. However, Master Kuroyu and she have been friends for many years. Whether or not he listens to her words or not, he has his own thoughts in his heart.
So I still replied to the letter, but the reply was short.
As for why Master didn’t reply to me…
The reason lies in this letter——
Song You could feel the energy of life and death.
Although this letter has never touched the hands of my experienced master, and may have been placed in the box for three days, it still has a faint air of death.
You can barely feel it without looking closely.
My old master must have aged very badly in the past few years, so when faced with Jiang Dadu's soul, he not only didn't see him, but didn't even want to say a word, so he drove him back.
"I told you not to cherish your youth..."
Song You sighed deeply and put the paper on the table.
The calico cat also squatted on the table, its tail wrapped around its little feet from behind, lowered its head to the side, glanced at the letter, then quickly raised its head, tilting its head and staring at him without blinking.
"you are not happy?"
"There are some."
"Master ignores you, are you sad?"
"Not really."
"what is that?"
"only……"
Song You lowered his head to meet her eyes, but paused for a long time before saying, "I just have some regrets."
"Pity?"
The calico cat stared at him.
Song You stopped talking.
The word "regret" sums up his mood so well——
Birth, old age, illness and death are human nature. It's not that I can't take it lightly. It's just that I have foreseen this day and been prepared in my heart, so I won't be too sad because of it.
But no matter how much I think about it, I feel regretful.
It's time to spend more time together.
It was time to let her taste the taste of chili pepper, and it was time to sit with her at the door of the Taoist temple after dinner and talk with her for several evenings, detailing the changes in her character after going down the mountain.
It's time to be by your side.
"..."
Song You didn't say anything, he just spread his hands in front of the Sanhua Empress. The Sanhua cat jumped over from the table, stepped on his arm and came close to stare at him, so close that her nose almost touched his face. As if this would allow him to see his thoughts clearly.
Song You picked up the letter again.
It was a very short paragraph, but after being together day and night for twenty years, he was very familiar with it. Even in such a short paragraph, in his eyes, he seemed to be able to see the conversation between the old Taoist and the old myna.
His eyes flickered for a moment, and his mood was inevitably depressed.
"Boom!"
Thunder sounded again outside.
After the thunder, there seemed to be drumming again.
Then there was a rapid sound of horse hooves. The sound of stepping on the mud and puddles was completely different from the dry road. In addition, the sound of shouting "get out of the way" sounded panicky.
The sound stopped outside the door.
Someone ran into the courtyard and stopped at the door:
"Mr. Song!
"The demon is coming!
"And there's flooding!"
This voice pulled Song You out of his thoughts.
"..."
His eyes flickered a few more times, but Song You still didn't say anything. He just silently folded the letter, put it back in the envelope, and then put it properly into the quilt bag before going out.
I have to say, the demon came just in time!
I want to thank them!
"Please lead the way."
"yes!"
Along the way up the city wall, I looked down -
The sky was cluttered, thunderstorms were coming, and water had been stored under the city for some time.
The yellow-red turbid water looked like it had risen during heavy rains. It had just reached the foot of the city, but it was rising rapidly. There was no wind and waves in the distance, and the water splashed on the foot of the city, and the water spray turned into foam.
If you look into the distance, you will find that the water is vast and the usual grassland seems to be gone. The whole grassland is such a turbid color. At first glance, you might think that the city is built on the seaside, or on a border that is difficult to see with the naked eye. on the edge of the big lake.
The soldiers on the city wall were almost stunned with fear.
How many soldiers on the grasslands in the north have seen such a vast expanse of water? Even if I had seen it before, how could I have imagined that such a scene would appear on this endless prairie?
You can also see the mountains above the water in the distance, or the figures of demons can be seen faintly in the middle of the water.
Song You looked at them, and they also looked at Song You.
Both sides looked at each other.
"Sanhua Empress has seen that sometimes fighting requires the help of time, place, and people." Song You was very calm, lowered his head and talked to Mao'er, "It's just like the demon on the opposite side. It's not very powerful at all, even if you get the points. In fact, the sword is not very powerful, but in the rainy season of this grassland and the heavy rains for several days, it has a power that even the innate gods may not have."
"Well……"
The calico cat stared at him: "Aren't you sad?"
"Let's see me defeat the enemy."
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, there was a crash in the distance.
There were already constant waves on the water, and suddenly there was a huge wind and wave, as if a wave was set off and hitting this side, and it seemed that the entire water in front was controlled by some force, and gathered into a line, forming a wide lake. A raging river rushed towards this city.
"Mr. Song..."
The sound of wind, rain, thunder, waves and the exclamations of the sergeants on the city wall mixed into a noisy sound.
A military general on the top of the city shouted loudly, fearing that Song You could not hear clearly: "Are you going to ask someone to open an altar and invite the gods to come down to the world?"
"The water will come and the earth will cover it!"
As he spoke, the waves were getting closer and closer.
It was fine when we were not close. The water was vast and had thousands of waves. This wave was just one of the higher waves. But the closer we got, the more we felt something was wrong - this wave was too high. When the wave reached the front, it was fine. By now it was almost possible to see that half of the city wall was high.
Thanks to the city wall being high enough, if you were looking from below, wouldn’t the waves be so dark and heavy coming from above your head?
Such a big wave, even if the city wall is two feet thick, can it block one wave, and how many waves can it block?
This wave is so high, what will happen next wave?
Are you afraid that the entire city will be flooded and destroyed?
Everyone on the city was panicked for a moment.
But all he saw was that the Taoist was holding the Dharma seal with his hand and staring down.
"Sui Su Su Su..."
Dozens of streams of light flew out and landed on the ground.
"Rumble..."
Just listen to the earth trembling.
Just as the wave came, the ground in front of the city wall suddenly rose up, and a mountain-like layer of soil that was almost as high as the city wall but much thicker than the city wall rose up.
"Bang!"
The waves crashed against the shore with a muffled sound.
The water wave hit the mountain wall and immediately rose into the sky. It crossed the mountain wall and everyone on the city wall had to look up.
Even though there was still a small distance between the mountain wall and the city wall, water splashed over and hit the soldiers, making people squint their eyes.
Looking into the distance again, there is another higher level of waves.
Song You was very calm.
With a finger, a bridge stretched from the front gable. Then he stepped onto the crenellations of the city wall, then stepped onto the earth bridge, and walked all the way to the front gable.
Many officers and soldiers looked at each other, but only the calico cat dared to follow.
When he reached the gable wall, he thought that the Taoist would stop, but he continued to walk forward. It seemed that outside the gable wall, which was several feet thick, there was another bridge extending diagonally to the bottom, or perhaps the gable wall. The other side was originally a slope, but the people on the city wall could not be seen. They could only see the Taoist and the cat continuing to walk. The cat disappeared almost instantly, and the Taoist slowly lowered until he was completely overwhelmed by that side. Blocked by the gable, it disappeared.
The general guarding the city glared angrily, and daring to follow him, he also went to the mountain wall to see what the immortal fight was like. He was willing to die, but before he stepped onto the crenellations of the city wall, he saw the earth bridge in front of him. It collapsed and all the mud fell down.
"Bang..."
There was a splash of water below.
The general was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but feel scared.
Fortunately, he hadn't walked on it yet. If he had walked on it, the earthen bridge would break halfway, and the city wall was four to five feet high, and he was wearing such heavy armor. No matter how skilled he was in martial arts, he would still fall heavily.
"General..."
Suddenly, he heard the primary school teacher calling him from behind.
The general looked back, then followed the direction of the colonel's finger and looked forward.
I saw that the waves in front of me suddenly stopped, and the scene was as weird as a painting. I also saw that the water outside the gable wall seemed to be separated from the middle by some force, and a road was actually exposed. After a while, I saw a person. The Taoist holding a bamboo stick and carrying the cat walked across the watershed, farther and farther.
When the demons in the distance saw this, they were all horrified.
Then I saw the Taoist wave his staff.
The water wave suddenly turned around and swept backwards.
It can be clearly seen that this wave is not naturally formed. When it surges in one direction, the water surface is almost higher on one side and lower on the other, as if part of the water has been pumped up by some force.
"boom!"
The water waves carry a huge force and hit the monster in the distance.
Just as those demons were about to escape, they saw waves of water several feet high coming over and scattering them immediately.
Those who have a shallow path may even become dizzy.
Then the Taoist raised his staff again.
"Boom!"
Countless thunder suddenly rained down from the Heavenly Palace.
The thunderbolts were all purple-red, with countless forks. In an instant, they connected the distance between the sky and the earth, and demons were struck by the lightning one after another.
More and more generals gathered on the top of the city. Even the military advisors and strange people in the city came to the top of the city. They saw that the wind and rain in the distance were getting stronger and stronger. The sky was gloomy, but the thunder was continuous, and the gloomy sky was blown away again and again. The heavy sky and earth are illuminated brightly, and sometimes purple thunder descends and falls into the water, as if it turns into countless twisted electric snakes, and instantly disperses in all directions under the water.
The wind, rain and waves were strong, and a road parted in the water.
It was like a miracle for a moment.
The Taoist walked along with a stick, not walking very fast, but none of the demons could escape. As the Taoist slowly approached, they were struck to death by lightning one by one.
Everyone on the top of the city was stunned.
As everyone knows, water is also one of the five elements.
Demons can take advantage of the water's power, and so can Taoists.
It's just that this rainy season has more than just water power to borrow. These monsters just borrowed water power, but they didn't know there was thunder.
They had to be hacked to death here one by one.
