Journey to the West: Moral Heaven

After listening, Wen Jiao went back to the back room without saying a word, took out a box, opened it, and found that it was full of jewelry and several boxes of golden beans.

"Lady, this"

Chen E's heart was shocked!

Wen Jiao said seriously: "My husband is in trouble, how can I stand by and watch, although I don't know why my husband has to build river embankments during the busy farming season, but my husband is not a fool, and he will not do foolish things, he must have his own reasons , These are the concubine’s dowry, how can they be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, my husband will take it to the emergency first, if it is not enough, the concubine will study and go home, and ask my father to donate some more silver.”

Chen E's eyes were full of affection. If he was only greedy for Wen Jiao's beauty before, then at this time, he really regarded Wen Jiao as his wife, so he nodded and said: "Young lady said well. , Husband and wife are one body, in this life, I will never fail you!"

Wen Jiao smiled slightly, at this moment, it was simply beautiful!

The next day, Chen E asked Li Biao to exchange the gold beads for silver. The jewelry was temporarily pawned. There was a total of 1 taels of silver. Privately, it was lent to the Jiangzhou Yamen for the construction of dams.

I will pay him back when I have money in the future.

He would not use money to subsidize the Li family, after all, the Lord of the Tang Dynasty is Li Shimin, not him.

With money, it is easy to do things. A large number of civilian husbands were confiscated to the river embankment. Although they took care of two meals, they were still full of resentment. He also served the people and stopped building embankments.

Chen E turned a deaf ear to it, lived and ate on the embankment of the river, and practiced it personally, guiding the peasants to pile up sandbags. He has experience in this set. In his previous life, flood fighting and emergency rescue was one of the compulsory courses for all grassroots cadres. To share the responsibilities, Chen E followed the gourd drawing and subcontracted the river beach to each member of the yamen.

Time flies, before you know it, it is already May [-]th!

In the early morning of this day, Chen E looked at the river embankment reinforced by rows of sandbags, and felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart, but when he looked up again, he saw the clear sky and the red sun on the horizon, and he felt a little worried about gains and losses.

Will the flood not come?

It would be a big joke for him to waste money and people by forcefully repairing the river embankment. He knew that many people in Jiangzhou City were waiting to see his joke, to see how he, the new champion of the department, would make a fool of himself.

"Master!"

Wen Jiao took Li Biao up the embankment, looked at Chen E, who was a little darker and thinner again, and quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and said distressedly: "Mr. Did you stay up all night?"

Chen E smiled and said: "My lady is wrong, I just woke up, did you bring breakfast?"

"Master, please eat!"

Li Biao handed over the basket, which contained steamed buns, pickles and two boiled eggs.

Chen E was so hungry that she squatted on the embankment, picked up steamed buns and ate them.

"Hey, the sky is overcast!"

I don't know who it is, but suddenly screamed, and saw billowing dark clouds rapidly spreading from the west, and in a short while, the sky that was just clear was already dark.

Chen E turned her head and said, "My lady, it's really going to rain, you should go back first."

Wen Jiao said with a smile: "I brought an umbrella, my husband built the embankment just for today, I want to see how much rain can fall."

"Well, that's fine!"

Chen E glanced at his beloved wife and nodded.

Yin Kaishan is a hero who followed Li Shimin to conquer the world. He has superb martial arts skills. Yin Wenjiao also has a bit of a family tradition. She is not the kind of weak woman. If she really wants to make a move, Chen E may not be able to survive two or three moves.

The clouds were still thickening, above, many gods such as Lei Gong Dian Mu, Feng Bo Yu Shi and many other gods led their subordinates, stepping on the clouds to return to their positions.

"what?"

Lei Gong looked down and asked in surprise, "Why are there so many mortals on the embankment?"

According to the contract area divided by Chen E, along the banks of the Hongjiang River, there are small groups of peasants led by their own officials, all wearing bamboo hats, carrying tools such as shovels and hoes. Lots of spare sand bags.

Mother Dian chuckled disdainfully: "Ordinary people think that the reinforcement of the embankment can stop natural disasters? Then what's the use of waiting for the gods? It's wishful thinking!"

Feng Bo echoed with a smile and said: "Mother Dian said well, the flood has been carefully calculated, and it can submerge half of the fertile land, and it was approved by the Jade Emperor Zhubi. Get carried away, it's time to teach them a lesson!"

Master Yu smiled and said, "Lei Gong should start first!"

Lei Gong held two gong-like artifacts in his hand and slammed them, and there was a deafening bang immediately.

"Thunder, thunder!"

On the river embankment, some peasants shouted loudly.

The Mother of Lightning also shook her hands, click, click, two bolts of lightning shot out.

Feng Bo waved his sleeves, and in an instant, the wind blew up!

Master Yu is a strong man with a black beard, holding a bowl in his left hand and holding a dragon inside. He opened the door and released the dragon. The dragon roared and spit out a jet of water when it opened its mouth. Immediately, a torrential rain fell from the sky!

The people standing on the embankment naturally couldn't see the gods in the sky. Facing Tianwei, they were full of panic and uneasiness. Suddenly, someone pointed at the middle of the river and shouted in a panic: "Look, what is that?"

Under the rain curtain, in the river water, there was a huge monster stirring faintly, and the wind and waves became more urgent for a while.

"My lord, isn't this the old dragon?"

Li Biao leaned his head together and asked loudly.

"That's the old guy, it seems that I have to remind him!"

Chen E smiled coldly and said, "Bring my crossbow!"

"Oh!"

Li Biao quickly filled in the arrow and handed it over.

Chen E raised his crossbow and aimed at the old Dragon King.

"Eh? What is Tang Zun doing?"

"Then that's Lord Dragon, isn't Tang Zun actually daring to shoot Lord Dragon?"

"Don't annoy the Dragon Lord!"

The surrounding officials noticed Chen E's actions and shouted in panic.

Chen E didn't care, and pulled the trigger.

With a bang, a pitch-black arrow shot towards the old Dragon King!

Chapter 10 The Ninth Day of Flood Fighting

Restricted by the rules of heaven, the Dragon King of Hongjiang hasn't made troubles for a long time. When he was shouting happily, he suddenly felt stung by a small insect. But seeing Chen E on the river embankment aiming at him with a crossbow in his hand, his heart skipped a beat, and he lost all energy.

Chen E once shot Liu Hong with the crossbow he provided, and learned the secret from others. The two also reached an agreement. Write it down in a small notebook for him, and then settle the account in the underworld, and he is going to go to the dragon stage!

The Dragon King of Hongjiang knew that this was Chen E's warning to him, so he restrained himself a little.
