It's spring in February, the water in the spring river is warm, and everything is revived.
At this time in Jiannan Road, as the spring thunder of the Waking of Insects sounded across the sky and the earth, serious spring floods began to occur in many places in Jiannan Road.
The floods inundated fields and houses, and the most severe cases were Pengzhou, Jiazhou, and Hanzhou, where the entire county was flooded.
Under the entire Jiannan Road, nearly half of the areas were directly affected by floods.
At this time, in the main hall of Chengdu Mansion on Jiannan Road, Bai Yuxian immediately summoned all the civil and military ministers under his command to gather together.
At the same time, Li Bai and the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult also came to the hall.
The other Jiannan civil and military officials present could not help but have an inexplicable strange feeling in their hearts when they looked at Li Bai and the Moon Worshiping Cult Leader in the hall, especially when they looked at the Moon Worshiping Cult Leader. You must know that before, this The leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult has always been regarded by them as Nanzhao's biggest enemy.
As a result, they never expected that just how long had passed, the leader of Baiyue, who they had regarded as Nanzhao's biggest enemy, would actually stand with them and become a colleague.
Such a powerful man with supernatural powers was subdued by Bai Yuxian.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a dreamy feeling. It can only be said that things in the world are like chess and it is unpredictable. At the same time, the awe of Bai Yuxian in their hearts became deeper and deeper.
After all, being able to subdue such a powerful person with supernatural powers shows how powerful and unfathomable Bai Yuxian is.
Moreover, during this period of time, as Li Bai integrated into Jiannan and began to work, Li Bai's own strength in the realm of martial arts and supernatural powers has also been revealed. This also made Jiannan Wenwu, who originally had objections to Bai Yuxian's direct promotion of Li Bai, question it. The ministers were even more convinced.
Now the entire civil and military officials in Jiannan already know that not only the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult, who was just conquered and recruited by Bai Yuxian, is a powerful man with supernatural powers, but also the previous Li Bai.
If you calculate it like this, now Jiannan, including Bai Yuxian, has three most powerful people at the level of celestial and human powers.
To be honest, in this situation, even their current civil and military ministers in Jiannan can't help but feel a little inflated.
Now with the strength of their Jiannan, no one in the world can compare with their Jiannan.
Sometimes they even couldn't help but think rebelliously that with their current strength in Jiannan, it would not be difficult to dominate the world.
At this moment, none of the civil and military ministers in Jiannan were aware of it.
As their Jiannan strength grew stronger, their own hearts began to move involuntarily.
When they themselves began to think that their current strength in Jiannan could dominate the world, it proved that their subconscious mind was no longer so reverent and loyal to the Tang Dynasty, and they already had thoughts of replacing them, at least they were no longer so repulsive to this idea. .
This subtle psychological change will be like a seed that will continue to take root and sprout in people's hearts until it finally blossoms.
And when that time comes, they will no longer have the Tang Dynasty in their hearts, but only their Jiannan and the hearts that replace it.
"I've seen the envoy."
Soon, as all the civil and military ministers gathered, Bai Yuxian finally arrived.
Seeing Bai Yuxian, everyone also saluted in unison.
"No need to be polite."
Bai Yuxian nodded slightly and sat down on the main seat, then looked at the subordinates present and spoke directly.
"Everyone is here, let's get straight to the point. Recently, with the return of spring to the earth, spring floods have broken out in many places in Jiannan, submerging fields and houses, causing people to be displaced, without shelter and without farming. field"
"Everyone is already aware of this matter, so I won't say more here. Next, I will talk about how to solve it."
When everyone present heard this, their expressions immediately became serious. They looked at Bai Yuxian with concentration, and they also had some expectations in their hearts, whether Bai Yuxian really had a solution to this matter.
To be honest, this situation has been going on for several years. It has been like this since Tianbao five years ago. Spring floods occur every year and are very serious. However, there is nothing that anyone in Jiannan can do because it is a natural disaster and there is nothing they can do.
Now that Bai Yuxian has arrived, such a powerful person with celestial and supernatural powers who is almost an immortal may be able to find a solution.
All the civil and military officials present could not help but look at Bai Yuxian expectantly.
Especially the original civil and military officials in Jiannan.
When Bai Yuxian said this, he looked at Li Bai and said.
"Brother Li, tell everyone about your investigation during this period."
Li Bai nodded, took a step forward, cupped his hands towards Bai Yuxian and spoke slowly.
"According to Xiaguan's investigation during this period, in every place where floods occur in our Jiannan territory, there is a very powerful aura of life remaining in the flood. This aura is very obscure and difficult to detect without supernatural powers. And it dissipates very quickly, and it will completely dissipate in no more than a day.”
"But because Xiaguan has been investigating this matter recently, he noticed this aura in time. This should be a powerful creature living in the water. It is not my human race, and it is very powerful. It has at least reached the level of divine powers. .”
"Furthermore, I guess that the flood in Jiannan is closely related to this creature. Otherwise, it would not be such a coincidence. Every time there is a flood in Jiannan, the aura of this creature will happen to appear there."
After speaking, Li Bai couldn't help but have a cold look in his eyes.
If he and Bai Yuxian's guesses were not guaranteed at the beginning, then now, he can almost 100% guarantee that there are definitely black hands behind the frequent natural disasters in Jiannan, and even the frequent natural disasters in the entire Tang Dynasty. It could all be because of this.
Otherwise, it would be too much of a coincidence that such large-scale natural disasters occurred frequently and all happened to be in the hinterland of China within the Tang Dynasty.
Originally, Li Bai didn't find it when he first investigated.
But recently, as spring returned to the earth, spring floods broke out one after another, and floods began to occur in many places under Jiannan's rule. Li Bai relied on his powerful perception of the realm of martial arts to seize the clues.
Through recent investigations, he found that when there is a flood in almost every place in Jiannan, a powerful aura will remain in the flood. The aura is very obscure and difficult to detect by non-celestial and supernatural beings, and it dissipates. It was very fast, but because Li Bai was specifically investigating this matter, he discovered this aura.
And the follow-up investigation of Li Bai also made it more certain that the owner of this aura was probably the mastermind behind the Jiannan floods, because floods occurred everywhere in Jiannan. This breath will appear.
"Master Li means that the flood in Jiannan is not a natural disaster, but man-made."
After hearing Li Bai's words, all the civil and military officials present could not help but look shocked.
"Human or not, if you find the owner of that aura, you will be able to find out all the truth."
"Have you locked on to the position of that breath?"
Bai Yuxian looked directly at Li Bai and asked.
Li Bai nodded and named a place.
"Jade Dragon Lake."
"Jade Dragon Lake?!"
The other civil and military ministers in the palace looked shocked again, especially the civil and military ministers who originally belonged to Jiannan.
They are no strangers to Yulong Lake.
Yulong Lake is one of the largest lakes in Jiannan and one of the sources of many rivers in Jiannan.
Moreover, Yulong Lake has always been rich in myths and legends.
Yulong Lake is even more enthusiastically believed and worshiped by nearby fishermen and people.
Because according to rumors, there is a divine dragon living in Yulong Lake, which is in charge of the entire Yulong Lake and is called the Dragon Lord. If the local fishermen want to fish in Yulong Lake and live and work in peace and contentment, they must worship the Dragon Lord of Yulong Lake.
"Maybe the legend is true, there is really a dragon in Yulong Lake, and the flood in Jiannan is related to it."
The faces of many Jiannan civil and military officials present who knew the rumors about Yulong Lake changed.
After all, if this is true, it is a real dragon, a legendary mythical creature, the dragon king who controls the water veins of the world.
"dragon!"
Bai Yuxian's eyes couldn't help but flash with a glimmer of light.
However, there is not much fear in their hearts. At the level of their divine powers, their own strength is no different from that of immortals and gods. If the immortality material in the human world had not been exhausted by the immortals in the sky, they would now be immortals and gods, completely in the same category as dragons. How could one be afraid of existences of different levels?
The expressions on the faces of Li Bai and the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult were similar to those of Bai Yuxian. There was no fear at all, but more of interest.
However, he looked at the changes in expressions of many civil and military ministers in the palace.
Bai Yuxian knew that he might not be afraid of the most powerful people at the divine level such as Long Tao, Li Bai, and the Moon Worshiping Leader, but the same could not be said for others.
After all, this is a legendary creature, and most people are still a little in awe of it, so they immediately spoke.
"Whether it is true or not, you need to go to Yulong Lake to investigate this matter in person. Even if it is really a dragon, if it is the cause of the flood in Jiannan, it is still a demon dragon."
"Since ancient times, demonic dragons have caused trouble, and some of our ancestors have killed demonic dragons to protect our race."
"If there really is a dragon in the Jade Dragon Lake today, and if it is really causing harm to my Jiannan, then I would not mind following the example of the sages and slaying this demonic dragon."
At first, many of the Jiannan civil and military officials present were a little in awe and didn't know what to do. They couldn't help but feel convinced after hearing Bai Yuxian's words, especially when they thought about Bai Yuxian's strength and that Li Bai and the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult were also gods. The most powerful person at the level of human supernatural power.
Immediately my heart calmed down and I felt that Bai Yuxian was right.
Even if it is really a dragon, if it causes floods and causes disaster, it is still a demon dragon and should be killed.
Since ancient times, there have been many examples of sages slaying demon dragons and protecting human beings in other people's legends.
"What the envoy said is true. Even if it is a dragon, if it is a demonic dragon causing trouble, it should be killed."
Everyone immediately agreed.
Seeing that everyone had the same opinion, Bai Yuxian immediately stopped talking nonsense and looked directly at Li Bai and the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult with a smile.
"Speaking of it, Bai has never seen a real dragon in his practice so far. I just happened to see it this time. I wonder if Brother Li and the leader are interested."
"I think so too."
Li Bai and the leader of the Moon Worshiping Cult also smiled when they heard this.
After saying that, the three of them walked out of the hall and left in the air.
