In the Li Mansion.

The jet-black tiles have been washed to be crystal clear and lovely, and there are clean and clear puddles accumulated on the bluestone slabs.

The animals sheltering from the rain shook off the fur sticking together due to the moisture, breathed and watched vigilantly, and went back into the woods one by one.

Because of the protection of the spirit veins in this Daqing Mountain, except for the rising water potential and a few places that were washed away by the heavy rain, this mountain forest has hardly changed from before the heavy rain.In the vast and broken withered yellow, this piece of green that should be in summer has become particularly eye-catching.

Ding Qin looked at the drops of water dripping from the eaves, full of anxiety.

"Ding Qin."

"God." Ding Qin turned her head.

Ever since Lichi Shangshen came back, he has been sitting on the porch, not moving, not speaking, his eyes are distant and he doesn't know where to look.

Li Chi's gaze has been withdrawn at some point, and it is falling on her, penetrating into his heart: "Are you worried about Ding's Village?"

Ding Qin nodded.

She is worried about Dingjiacun, and also worried about Baihong, the crane god.

Before she was weak and weak, Dingjia Village had the protection of the Crane God, and the Crane God was a real demon god, so she didn't need to worry about it.But after this heavy rain, what will Dingjia Village look like?Will Crane God Baihong be in a difficult situation?

"Then go back and have a look." Li Chi said.

"God..."

"Come." Li Chi beckoned to her.

Ding Qin walked over, and the divine seal on her forehead gradually manifested.

As soon as Li Chi pointed at the divine seal, Ding Qin felt that the divine seal was hot, and the vision in front of her eyes suddenly became blurred and distorted, and she couldn't see clearly no matter how she looked, she involuntarily closed her eyes.

"The inspiration between heaven and earth has been messed up." The voice of the god rang in her ears.

The warm divine power flowed into the divine seal, as if some pattern was drawn, and a shackle seemed to be opened.

"During the catastrophe, all spells will get half the result with twice the effort, and may even fail, or produce other unexpected changes."

She obviously closed her eyes, but she suddenly saw the light. Under the light of that light, most of the previously blurred and distorted vision suddenly became clear.That was her original vision of the spiritual eye, the inspiration of the whole world!

"Don't cast spells with ideas that you can't see clearly, but you can use everything within the scope of the divine seal. That's..."

Ding Qin felt the light in front of her eyes fade away, she opened her eyes ignorantly, and Li Chi had already retracted the fingers that had landed on her forehead.

"...my authority."

Her eyes were clear and bright again, and her field of vision returned to the world she was familiar with. She saw the inspirations in the world, but those inspirations were not as clear and discernible as before. The feeling of blurred vision, only by paying more attention can you see these inspirations clearly.

And these inspirations are gradually becoming more and more blurred.The process is slow but clear.

"God..." Ding Qin was full of doubts.

"Go to Liquan Village on the way, and tell them that the water source has been resolved, so don't go up the mountain to disturb me. Let's go." Li Chi said.

Ding Qin wanted to ask, but Li Chi had already closed her eyes, so she had no choice but to bow and leave.

……

At the foot of the mountain, the overabundant stream flowed into the pond, and the water in the pond was so high that it didn't pass the edge of the pond bank. It dripped on the grass, making the ground wet and sticky, making people sink in every step, and had to use more strength. , to pull out the foot that was sucked by Shen Shen.

Two villagers from Liquan Village walked towards the pool with heavy steps. When they saw the big carp floating on the water with its belly upturned, their expressions became a little ugly.

"The water here...can't be used anymore." Zheng Qian said wearily.

After the heavy rain, the water potential in various places soared, but the water was polluted by the bitter rain and could not be used at all. At the same time as the floods in various places, there was a severe shortage of water.

In the polluted water source, the fish and shrimp are almost dead. If you want to wait until the water veins are self-cleaning and everything returns to normal, I don't know how long it will take.

But right now is the time when water is most scarce, and the people in Liquan Village immediately began to check the surrounding water sources after the rain stopped.Although there are many springs and ponds here, most of the water sources have been polluted now, and there are only a few water sources that can be used, but they are not enough to irrigate the land.

Zheng Mi didn't speak, he stopped to slow down his strength, walked to the pond step by step, squatted down, took the water and touched his lips to taste it.

He has tasted water from too many places, and this time the taste on the tip of his tongue is still salty and bitter, but Zheng Shu's eyes couldn't help but brighten up.

"The taste of this water is much weaker!"

When the salty and bitter taste fades, it means that other normal water will neutralize it!

"I'll try it!" Zheng Qian hurriedly came over and bent over to hold the water. After tasting it, he was shocked and said, "Go and see the water source!"

There is only one inlet to this pond, which is a small stream flowing down from the mountain.

The clear stream beat into snow-white waves on the rocks. The two found a place where the water was relatively gentle. They picked up the water and tasted it. What they poured into their mouths was the sweet spring.

Zheng Qian's eyes lit up: "This water can be used!"

Zheng Mi had already stood up, looking at the green forest along the source of the stream.

Water comes from the mountain, and on this mountain... there are gods!

Zheng Qian grinned: "Great! Great! We don't need water anymore!"

Zheng Mi also laughed: "We'll go back now!"

Zheng Qian thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "One report is enough, I'll run there, and you can see if there is any other water nearby!"

Zheng Mi agreed, and after Zheng Qian left, he walked to several nearby water sources. The more he walked, the lighter his mood became.

One is clean, two is clean, three... no!As long as the water flows down from the mountain, it is clean!

They are still as clear and sweet as before, flowing from the mountain to the foot of the mountain. As long as there is enough time, the polluted ponds and rivers will be cleaned sooner or later!

……

On the other side, Zheng Qian had already arrived at the gate of the ancestral hall in Liquan Village.

There was noise in the ancestral hall.During the three days of heavy rain, although Yishan King sheltered some of the fields in Liquan Village, he didn't bother to distribute the area of ​​protection evenly according to which households these fields belonged to.

After the heavy rain ended, most of the fields of some families were within the protection range of Yishan King, and there was almost no loss, but some people had no more than half an acre of good land.How can they live if they are still distributed according to the old fields?

The current fields must be redistributed, and this is what is being debated in the ancestral hall.

Seeing this scene, Zheng Qian couldn't help being stunned at the door, and the village elder who had been silent all this time saw him first.

The village elder paused for a while, and the ancestral hall slowly fell silent.

He asked Zheng Qian, "What's the matter?"

The joy on Zheng Qian's face had faded, and he told about finding good water.

The people in the ancestral hall couldn't help commotion, but it didn't take long for them to say: "But the foot of the mountain is too far away from the fields, how can we use water?"

Three days of heavy rain had soaked the soil deeply, and the clean water flowing down from the mountain would become salty and bitter again in a short time.If you want to use water, you can only rely on people or vehicles to carry the water back.Water is enough for home use, but what about watering the fields?We can't still rely on people to transport them one by one.

Besides, how to divide Tian has not yet been resolved, and seeing that there is another quarrel, the village elder slammed his crutch hard, making an angry noise on the ground!

There was a moment of silence in the temple.The village elder is responsible for presiding over the sacrificial ceremony. It is the most experienced and wise elder in a village, and he is also the most prestigious person in the village.

"Is there a way to survive with the remaining fields?" The village elder's voice was not loud, but everyone's heart sank.

After the heavy rain, most of the fields were destroyed. No matter how carefully they were taken care of, they were destined to not be able to harvest much food.

The village elder looked at Zheng Qian: "You said the mountain is still green?"

"Just like before the rain." Zheng Qian nodded, he paused, and asked, "Do you want to go into the mountains?"

The land they were familiar with was destroyed, and the water was also destroyed. Without water and soil, people cannot live.They can only find water and soil that have not been destroyed.But near Liquan Village, there are only remnants of fields, and the mountain forest is still normal.

The fields are protected by the King Yishan, but who protects the forest?

"If you want to find a way to survive, you have to go to the mountains." Whether it is gathering or hunting, there are foods that can make people survive on mountains with normal water and soil.

The village elder spoke of new hope, but his brows were furrowed.

There are gods on the mountain, and the only way to ask for water is to pray to the gods, not to mention that they have to go hunting in the mountains. Liquan Village is not good at hunting, and it is best to seek the protection of the gods.

Zheng Qian was silent for a moment, and said: "Shall we go to ask the gods on the mountain?"

This is not easy to say.

In remote mountain villages like theirs, other righteous gods have no time to look after them, and they have always relied on the protection of practitioners like Yishan King to survive.Similarly, their incense offerings are only offered to Yishan King who sheltered them.

Occasionally there are other reasons, and it is not a problem to worship other gods in private, just like Zheng Liang’s family has been worshiping the god on the mountain after Tongdou was enchanted, but if there is a large-scale sacrifice to other gods, there is a problem up.

There are very few believers in this world who are extremely devout, pure and broad in their beliefs. Most of them are just ordinary people who respect gods besides living their own lives.The incense beliefs they can provide are limited.

Incense is very important to the gods.Ordinary people have things that they cannot do by themselves, so they pray and worship the gods, but that is not making a deal with the gods with incense beliefs.

Not to mention that people who have the idea of ​​sacrificing and bribing the gods have no pious heart, and the incense is weak and impure. Even if they can provide the gods with rich beliefs, the gods are not traders, let alone receive incense with one hand for blessings and disasters.

The god who corrects the divine way has his own decision in his heart.

But mortals devoutly offer incense when they have something to ask for, which is not only a reward to the gods, but also a help to themselves.

The power of the gods has high and low strengths, and when its power is weak, incense is the best support.Just like the three-day heavy rain this time, the village elder asked to continue offering sacrifices until the rain stopped. It was not only for the protection of King Yishan, but also to provide him with some support when King Yishan was struggling to protect himself.

But now that the rain stopped, the situation after the rain stopped was not enough for them to survive.People in Liquan Village have worshiped Yishan King for generations. They have already understood the ability of Yishan King. In the days to come, Yishan King will not be able to help them.

If they want to live, they have to ask other gods for help, but are they going to put aside the King Yishan who has just helped them?

There was a moment of silence in the temple.

The village elder took a deep breath: "We..."

"Immortal, immortal..." Zheng Mi broke in suddenly, still breathing.

Someone asked anxiously: "What's wrong with the gods?!"

The old village said: "Speak slowly, catch your breath, and speak slowly and clearly."

Zheng Mi took a breather and said, "When I went up the mountain to look for water, I met Miss Ding Qin. She told me that the god said that the source of water will be solved, so don't go up the mountain to disturb him."

The village elder thought about what to say, and asked, "Did the emissary say when the water source will be resolved? How will it be resolved?"

Zheng Shu shook his head.

"Is there anything else to say?"

Zheng Shu shook his head again.

"Where's Miss Ding Qin?" The village elder asked again.

Zheng Mi was stunned: "I have already left."

The village elder asked a few more questions, but Zheng Mi couldn't answer, and his forehead was almost sweating.When he was looking for other water sources on the edge of the forest, he ran into Ding Qin who was going down the mountain. After getting the news, he rushed back without asking further questions.

The village elder shook his head helplessly. He knew that Zheng Mi was a dull gourd who was not good at talking, so he didn't make things difficult for him.

"Take me to see the water."

……

At the foot of the mountain, the stream rushes down from the forest, and the sound of turbulent water can be heard before approaching.

A group of people came to the pond, the yellow and soft grass was still wet and sticky, and the water in the pond was still salty and bitter.

But that mountain is so green that it makes people happy just looking at it.

The village elder looked up at the mountain, and the people next to him supported him.The road was difficult to walk after the rain, and it was not close to the village. The people on the side wanted to persuade him not to come, but he insisted.

If he doesn't come to see it with his own eyes, how can he feel at ease?

Zheng Mi brought a bowl of water from the forest, the village elder tasted it, and his expression was a little relieved.This water is good, but such good water can only be useful if it can be delivered to the villages and fields.

The gods on the mountain said that the water source will be solved, but does the solution mean that they can use the water on the mountain at will, or does it mean that they can help them send water to the villages and fields?

The gods said not to disturb him by going up the mountain, did they not want to accept their incense offerings, or did they not allow them to go up the mountain?

The village elder was thinking in a daze, when he suddenly heard others exclaim.

"what is that?"

"Water in water! Something's shining!"

In the stream rushing down from the mountain, something silvery and shiny was hidden in the waves and went down with it.The light and the sparkling waves are almost integrated, and only the occasional splashes of water can tell that it is something different from waves.

The shining thing drifted closer and closer, and when it approached the pond, a big silver fish suddenly jumped out of the waves, bringing with it a string of water splashes like broken jade beads, leaping several feet in the air, directly It fell into the pond, but it seemed to melt into it, without splashing a single bit of water.

Everyone looked at the place where the big fish entered the water in amazement, and suddenly someone exclaimed: "On the ground! The water on the ground!"

Everyone lowered their heads, the water on the grass began to rush into the pond for some reason, and the water level in the pond was dropping, and it didn't stop until it reached the bottom of the bank.

"Big Fish Immortal!" the village elder called out.

The water's edge rippled, and a big silver fish poked its head at the edge of the pool, looking up at the village elder.

The village elder slowly bent down and squatted down, and asked, "Immortal Big Fish, are you here to help us solve these hardships?"

Silverfish nodded.The god of Lichi pointed it out, making it run through the water veins, dredging and cleaning the water veins below the mountain.

The spring water raises carp, and the ocean raises whales.If you are only content to be a shadow of a fish in the pond in Li's courtyard, it will never achieve results.

This time after the heavy rain, it was a rare opportunity for him to go down the mountain to cleanse the water veins.

Seeing that Big Yu really nodded in response, the other villagers couldn't help but let out low exclamations.

The village elder's heartbeat couldn't help but a little bit faster. He stabilized his mind and continued to ask: "Immortal Big Fish, can we still enter the mountain?"

Silverfish nodded again.

The village elder breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that "don't go up the mountain to bother them" refers to telling them not to go to that deserted house to bother them.

The village elder asked again: "Do we need to set up an offering as a sacrifice?"

The silver fish shook its head and tail.

The God of Lichi doesn't need incense, it doesn't practice the divine way, and it doesn't need mortal sacrifices.

The village elder took a deep breath, his throat a little choked.

With the water problem solved, they can also enter the mountain, even if they will not get the protection of this god when they act in the mountain, but as long as they can enter the mountain, it is enough.There is no need to set up an offering as a sacrifice, and there is no need to be sorry to King Yishan.

"The gods are merciful." He murmured.
