Shen Ying rode the waves and handed the woman and child to a crying man on the high ground who was being stopped by everyone. Then he saw the couple kowtow to Shen Ying.
"Thank you fairy! Thank you fairy!"
"Get up." Shen Ying stretched out her hand to lift the couple up, looked at the infant girl who was looking at her with a smile, couldn't help but chuckle, and put her hand on the baby's forehead.
The next moment, a light pink peach blossom pattern appeared between the baby girl's eyebrows, flickered twice, and then disappeared.
"I'll give you a chance. I hope you can grow up healthily in the future."
"Cluck...cluck..."
The little baby girl was holding Shen Ying's finger, as if she wanted to put it in her mouth and take a bite.
"It seems she is a little hungry." Shen Ying smiled and returned the baby girl to the woman's arms.
The woman nodded repeatedly, did not avoid anyone, loosened her clothes, covered herself up a little, and put the baby girl into her arms.
At the same time, Lu Zheng and his party also arrived at the high ground.
A tent was set up to light a fire, and food was put out for the clinic.
"Empress Qing Yi, empress Qing Yi!" Someone recognized Liu Qingyan, after all, they had been here before.
"Your Majesty is here, Your Majesty is here, you are saved!"
"Wow, uncle, how did you dry all these dead branches?"
Yue Honghai majored in water law and was the best at controlling water. He just waved his hand and pulled out all the water from the branches of the trees left behind to build the shed.
Then he reached out and touched the surface, lit the dead branches, and lit several bonfires in the shack, allowing these soaked people to enjoy the long-lost warmth.
Immediately afterwards, Liu Qingyan and Du Yueyao were sitting in the shack set up for consultation, while Wang Xiaowan, Hua Yixing and the other girls helped cook medicine and porridge, and distributed food to the people who had no time to escape with supplies.
Si Lingxi looked around and saw several children squatting pitifully beside a campfire, shivering and warming themselves.
With a wave of their hands, the children's clothes were instantly evaporated, and then they felt their eyes blur and a few more candies in their hands.
"Why?"
They all looked up and saw a big sister in a fiery red dress looking over not far away.
"Thank you sister!"
Si Lingxi nodded, and then saw Lu Zheng talking to a man next to him who looked to be in his forties or fifties.
"So, the water suddenly rose yesterday?"
The man was the mayor of this small village. After hearing this, he nodded and said, "Actually, it hasn't rained heavily in recent days, and the river is still far from the embankment, so we weren't in a hurry. But we didn't expect that there was a sudden influx of heavy rain from upstream last night. Water, less than two-quarters of an hour after the people patrolling the river embankment raised the alarm, the entire village was flooded."
Lu Zheng nodded and looked upstream along the river outside the village.
Si Lingxi narrowed her eyes, then shook her head, "There is no one upstream anymore."
"You're not running very fast." Lu Zheng shook his head and turned back to the man, "The terrain here is actually not high. To be on the safe side, you'd better walk further into the mountains behind."
The man nodded repeatedly, "We think so too, but we have just come out of the village, so we have to wait a little longer. I'm going to organize the manpower tomorrow to take everyone into the mountains."
"In the afternoon, we can still help you in the afternoon. We will leave tomorrow."
"What, leaving tomorrow?" The man asked in surprise, "It's raining heavily now and the road is difficult to travel. How are you going to leave? Why don't you just survive for a few days and hit the road again when the rain subsides?"
Lu Zheng shook his head, "No need, we are here to rescue people in the disaster area. There must be many villages encountering the same problems as you."
The man was stunned for a moment before he realized that the Qing Yi Empress and her party were not ordinary people. He nodded heavily, bowed deeply to Lu Zheng, and hurriedly went to find other villagers to discuss setting out in the afternoon.
…
For more than ten days, Lu Zheng and his party traveled through most of Yizhou, Yanzhou and Yuzhou, passing through nearly fifty or sixty counties, villages and towns.
Some villages and towns were not severely affected by the disaster, and they only stayed for half a day for consultation. In some villages and towns, the disaster was more serious. In addition to medical treatment, they also distributed food relief.
In addition, compared to a few years ago, Lu Zheng's cultivation level was much higher, so his senses became more sensitive. He killed more than a dozen evil monsters, large and small, along the way. The most powerful ones were nearly two hundred years old. The weaker ones have only been practicing for more than ten years.
At the same time, the name of Qingyi Empress, which had been famous five years ago, spread throughout several states in the northern part of Lingbei Road, and soon spread to the neighboring Sichuan East Road and Zhiyang Road.
"Qingyan is not only kind-hearted, but what is rare is that she can always maintain her original intention and have so many merits."
Si Lingxi couldn't help but marvel as she watched wisps of golden light of merit descend, then flicker on Liu Qingyan's body for a while before disappearing.
Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, in comparison, my utilitarianism is much heavier, that's all."
Si Lingxi glanced at Lu Zheng and felt that she had not received any merit. She always felt that Lu Zheng was caring about her.
Merit is really too mysterious. You need to do good deeds sincerely and be moved by heaven and people, only then can you get the golden light of merit from heaven to protect yourself and ward off evil.
The more utilitarian you are, the less merit you will gain.
Therefore, sometimes, ordinary people who cannot feel the merits or aliens with low cultivation level have a lot of merits. Ordinary aliens who can feel the merits will inevitably be affected. If their thoughts are distracted, their merits will become less and less.
The top strangers who can have great merits and virtues are all senior masters who care about the world, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and have both Taoism and Taoism in mind.
Liu Qingyan has been able to sense merits for a long time, but she has never been affected by them. She treats diseases and saves people from her heart. This time, she compiled three general prescriptions for different diseases that are prone to floods and gave them to doctors everywhere.
As a result, more and more merits were gained, and the golden light became more and more prosperous, even to the point where the Tushan Sutra could not cover it up.
At the same time, Liu Qingyan's cultivation level was steadily improving unknowingly.
…
At this time, everyone had left Lingbei Road and entered Zhiyang Road.
Because the government of Sichuan East Road was relatively well prepared this year, the people were not seriously affected by the disaster. However, Zhiyang Road, which was not seriously affected five years ago, did not pay attention to it. This year, there were several dam breaches, and many villages and towns suffered floods, even two towns near the river. All the state capitals were flooded.
"I heard that Duan Zhizhou was corrupt and perverted the law, and squandered all the money used to build the dam?"
"It's so tragic. The levee collapsed early, and everyone on the dam was washed away by the flood. The state capital was flooded for three days, and the water only receded yesterday."
"It is said that Duan Zhizhou will be taken to Zhongjing. It is estimated that this head cannot be saved."
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, I heard that the new governor of the state has opened a warehouse to release grain. Everyone, go quickly!"
Listening to the discussion of the people affected by the disaster, when Lu Zheng and his party arrived at Yizhou Prefecture in the south of Zhiyang Road, they happened to see the new magistrate organizing people to relieve the people, opening warehouses and distributing grain, and another group of people pushing a A prison van, just leaving the city.
