"Mother Yun, what's going on outside?" In a house in the east of the county, an old lady asked with a worried look on her face, leaning on a cane.
A strong woman with a round face, broad back, tall body and slightly dark skin was coming back from outside. She locked the door and said, "It's okay for the time being. It's just that a few of our brothers were recruited. They said they were good at water and needed to be pulled." Go dredge the ditch.”
"Fortunately, everyone is fine, otherwise..." Yun Niang gritted her teeth.
"Otherwise, what are you going to do!" The old man came out of the room, "Trouble comes from your mouth, don't talk nonsense."
Yun Niang quickly helped him: "Dad, why are you up?"
The old man coughed twice: "This is an old problem of mine. It would be fine if I lay down, but it won't get better. Why don't I get up and see if I can help."
"You man just didn't keep your mouth shut, and that's why you harmed yourself, and made you take care of us two useless old things."
Yun Niang shook her head: "He is good to me, and you are also good to me. I have no parents, and I look like this. It's because you don't mind that you married me back and gave me a family."
The old lady said: "As long as you are nice and kind-hearted, what does appearance matter? Besides, my Yun Niang is not ugly, she is just a little thicker and taller."
Yun Niang's face turned red: "Don't say it, don't say it, what are you talking about? I'll come back to see you, and let you know that you are safe. I will go out later."
The old man said: "Go, go, we two immortals have nothing to worry about."
Yun Niang said: "When I go out, lock the door and don't open it for others."
"A lot of people were affected by the disaster this time. I'm afraid someone will take the opportunity to cause trouble."
The old man snorted: "I am also an old martial artist who has been through thick and thin. How can I not know this?"
Yun Niang laughed boldly: "That's what dad said."
She walked out into the rain again, with a bamboo hat and raincoat draped around her body. She was taller than an average man.
"Sister Yu, why don't you go out when it rains?"
A neighbor saw it and said hello.
Yun Niang said: "Go and see some of my brothers."
She broke into the rain and brought some money to several brothers who were recruited.
The government should have paid for it, but the county magistrate who plucking the geese's feathers didn't care about the lives of these people. It was obvious that they had worked all night in vain and had caught cold.
The brothers in Yun Niang's fish business were all trustworthy old people. The business was established by her father-in-law when he was young. It was later passed on to her husband, and then to her after his death. Several generations of people have been in the same boat. Zhi, we cannot lose our troops and generals because of this matter.
After coming out of her brothers' house, she walked to the corner of the ditch in the city, looked around furtively, and when she saw no one was there, she took out a pearl with a stripe, dipped it in the water, and shook it.
There was no response for a long time, and she was a little downcast. Just as she was about to leave, she saw water suddenly rising in the ditch.
A translucent red carp made of rainwater wags its tail in the water.
Yun Niang said in surprise: "Eleven Niang, can you enter the city?"
The red carp kicked its two eyeballs and said: "I can't get in, I'm blocking it outside. The ditches in the city can only be entered but not exited, otherwise the water will flow back and be flooded."
Yun Niang said: "Eleven Niang, I have something to ask you."
Red Carp asked: "What's the matter?"
"When will this rain stop? Does it matter?"
Eleven Niang raised her head and glanced at the sky: "It won't stop for a while. I don't care about this. I don't know the inside story. Remember to hide in the city and don't come out. It's quite chaotic outside now. The water has risen and flooded the shore. . My father asked me to restrain the water demon, and I can’t enter the city, so I can’t protect you.”
Yun Niang was worried: "I'm afraid if the rain continues, the city won't be able to withstand it."
Eleven Niang waved her tail and said: "Don't be afraid, prepare the boat. If the city is flooded, just sail out and I will come to pick you up."
"Don't be afraid of drowning. I can take you to the water to be my staff and help me govern."
Yun Niang sighed: "But I don't want to die yet."
Eleven Niang vomited a few blisters: "Okay, then be careful."
"I'm leaving first. I have to control the water monsters and prevent them from coming ashore."
Yun Niang urged: "Go quickly, what if someone comes up and eats people?"
Eleven Niang laughed: "Then if you mess up the job, you will definitely be scolded by the old man."
Eleven Niang waved her tail, and the transparent red carp dispersed and turned into rainwater.
Yun Niang sighed heavily. She wanted to ask Eleven Niang for some news, but this stupid fish didn't know anything, which made her even more worried.
There was a heavy storm overnight, and various villages and communities suffered heavy losses.
Along with the floods came water monsters.
The village community was submerged by the flood, and the entire village abandoned the village and fled, and the ancestor spirits and the gods of the village community could not leave either. If the incense can continue after the water subsides, that's okay.
If not, it will be a major blow to them.
In order to avoid flooding, more and more people gathered outside the county town, hoping to enter the city and be protected.
The county magistrate had been alarmed for a long time, but when he saw the crowd of villagers gathered outside the city, cold sweat immediately broke out on his head.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Don't open the city gate. If the city gate is opened and these refugees rush in, there will be a big chaos."
"Guard the city gate for me and don't let anyone in."
The limited troops were all surrounding the city gate, not only to prevent the siege from outside, but also to prevent the people inside from opening the city gate.
The reaction on the city wall quickly showed their attitude. Across the wall, the miserable and desperate cries could be heard immediately, making people's hearts tremble.
Liu Sheng watched coldly as the county magistrate retreated from the city wall, watched as the officers and soldiers surrounded the city gate, and asked: "Your Excellency, magistrate, why don't you open a warehouse to provide food relief? Even if it is to provide work in exchange for relief?"
The county magistrate said: "How can the granary be opened just by asking for it? Let me report it to the court and wait for approval. Besides, how much grain is there in the county granary? When will the rain stop? If it doesn't stop, what will happen if the grain runs out? manage?"
"This is a natural disaster, what can we do?"
The county magistrate walked away from Liu Sheng. Liu Sheng looked at his back and sighed heavily.
A night of wind and rain damaged Gong Mengbi's wandering soul. One is because of the thunder, and the other is because the birds themselves cannot withstand such natural disasters.
Gong Mengbi could do nothing about such a loss.
Even if Gong Mengbi didn't drive them, they wouldn't be able to survive such wind, rain and thunder.
But when the fleeing foxes gathered on Fox Slope, and the five ghosts and gods braved the rain to pick up the wandering souls, Gong Mengbi finally got the good news.
General Banyin's evil spirit has been found.
He was not found in person, but a ghost possessed among the refugees. As the refugees continued to gather, they continued to gather among various groups of people.
Gong Mengbi frowned: "He didn't take advantage of the flood to kill people, but instead released a large number of demons to possess the refugees?"
What a big ambition, what a big courage.
Gong Mengbi couldn't admit that General Ban Yin was indeed not comparable to ordinary monsters.
With such ambition and ability, it has to be said that Old Man Qixiu and Granny Shi really taught him how to behave.
But what he learned was how to be a bad person.
