"Who! What bastard is digging up my rice fields and stealing my irrigation water?"
When Qiu Ping woke up, he suddenly realized something was wrong. More than ten acres of rice fields in Huang'ao Village were dug and drained of water. The fields have just been planted and now they need water. An accident occurred at this time, which had a great impact on the villagers' harvest in the coming year.
As a water god, how can I tolerate such a thing?
At first he thought it was a dispute among the villagers, and someone was digging into other people's fields at night.
But after asking Tu Tu Gong, Tu Tu Gong said that this was not done by the villagers. However, who actually did it, Tudigong didn’t know.
This thing is very strange. Neither Qiu Ping nor Tu Tu Gong sensed any abnormality last night. Huang'ao Village was under their control, so they had no idea how someone could cause trouble here.
Unless the opponent's strength far exceeds the two of them.
But there should be no great master who is too bored to plow the villagers' paddy fields. How shameless is this?
"Young ones!"
Qiu Ping shouted loudly, and countless loach heads suddenly appeared in the open space below the ancient well.
"Go to the rice fields and inspect them day and night. If there are any changes, come back and report them in time." Qiu Ping also got more aggressive. If he didn't catch the other party, he would write his name backwards!
"Okay, Your Majesty!"
The loaches immediately dispersed and entered the rice fields along the waterway, patrolling everywhere.
Qiu Ping also followed the loaches and came to the place where the field ridge was destroyed.
At this moment, the villagers of Huang'ao Village are repairing the leaks to prevent the water in the rice fields from continuing to drain.
"Well, looking at the traces, it looks like it was dug out with some kind of instrument. This kind of instrument is relatively sharp, like a pickaxe?" Qiu Ping got closer to the dug gap, and there were some messy digging marks on it.
Generally speaking, it is easier to dig soft soil such as field ridges with a shovel, and no one would use a pickaxe if it is a thankless task.
Moreover, the excavation traces were messy and unorganized, not like a person who often did farm work.
"Also, why are there so many small holes? Are they drilling? It doesn't look like the depth, but it looks like footprints?" Qiu Ping became even more suspicious.
"When I went to Hebo to report on my work a few days ago, I heard the river god of Chenjiaping complain that the water in the village was draining for no apparent reason, which was exactly the same as the situation here." He suddenly thought of another thing and felt that there should be a relationship between the two. Some connections.
Qiu Ping secretly gloated when he heard that someone had stolen water from Chenjiaping. Well now, the trouble is on him.
Just when Qiu Ping was upset, news came from Little Loach, saying that several acres of paddy fields to the east had also been ripped off.
"This...this is too evil."
When Qiu Ping arrived, Tu Tu Gong was already standing on the ridge of the field.
A large gap was dug out of a large paddy field. The gap looked like a dog biting it. At this moment, the water in the rice field had almost drained away.
As the God of the Earth, the Earth God had no idea when something went wrong in these acres of land, as if everything happened in an instant.
But looking at how dry these acres of paddy fields are, it's clear that water has been released for a long time.
Seeing this scene, Qiu Ping was also dumbfounded. If it was the first time someone let someone down, it could be said that they were negligent. But this second time they were on tight guard, was there something wrong?
"Lord Lord, you haven't offended anyone before, right? Otherwise, how can you explain this?"
Qiu Ping scratched his head. Could it be that some master had used a magic that could conceal the truth? Otherwise, why would they not feel anything at all?
"Little old man, I have always been kind to others. How could I offend others randomly? Besides, with my meager strength, if there is an expert, they can just come to their door. Why bother to use such boring methods?" The Earth God also thought in his heart. He was puzzled, but he doubted whether Qiu Ping was responsible for this disaster.
After all, when it comes to causing trouble, this little loach is as good as anyone else.
Qiu Ping thought about it. He even doubted whether the fact that he had been in the underworld was leaked. He had offended people severely last time.
Both the city god's niece and the ghost boy probably hated themselves to death.
However, given the personalities of those two people, I'm afraid they won't do it in such a roundabout way, and they will most likely come directly to the door.
…
Facing this invisible enemy, Qiu Ping had absolutely no choice.
His and Tuigong's sense of authority was completely disabled. Every time they waited until the water was almost released, they would suddenly feel the change.
For three consecutive days, more than 40 acres of paddy fields in the village were dug up, and the villagers complained.
Although Qiu Ping and Digong followed behind to make up for the lost water, they did not cause much damage to the rice fields. How could Qiu Ping be willing to endure such grievances despite his violent temper?
He personally led the little loaches to patrol the fields every day, and would rush over whenever there was any disturbance.
But still found nothing.
"Don't let me catch you, or I will skin you and remove your bones!" Qiu Ping has never suffered such a big loss since he became the well god. Every time he dares to go to the excavated field ridge, he always hates it. Teeth itchy.
"Crash."
Just when Qiu Ping was full of anger, a dark cloud flew across the sky.
It turned out that it was evening, and the bat leader Bai Saner led his family out to look for food. They seem to have become accustomed to living in Huang'ao Village.
They sleep in the cave during the day and don't come out to look for food until night.
"Bai San'er!"
Qiu Ping called out, and the bat swarm in the sky suddenly stopped. After a few circles, a group of bats, big and small, squatted on the ridge of the field.
The smallest of these bats are the size of puppies, and the largest Bai San'er is as big as a human. If an ordinary person were here, they would be scared to death.
"Master Jing Shen, what are your orders?"
Bai San'er has been very honest since he was beaten last time. When he saw Qiu Ping, he bared his big teeth and showed a flattering smile.
"You have been flying around here recently, have you seen anything unusual?"
Qiu Ping secretly wondered if these bats were responsible. After all, he had raided their home last time.
"Reporting to Mr. Jingshen, we haven't found anything unusual recently. Oh... By the way, is it unusual for a new group of crabs to come to our village?" Bai San'er lowered his head, trying not to be too taller than Qiu Ping. many.
But Qiu Ping was too short, so he had to squat down to look less tall.
"Crab! Where is it!"
Qiu Ping heard this word very keenly. He immediately thought of the messy excavated field ridge, and the hole-like footprints all over the ground. At that time, he suspected that they were left by monsters such as river shrimps and crabs. It’s just that I really couldn’t find any evidence, so I didn’t think deeply about it.
