Two Worlds: I Became an Immortal

Chapter 158 Weird Things

"Edict."

Outside Lan Ning's mansion, Song Yunyuan walked towards the next mansion while looking down at the jade slip he had just obtained.

What is engraved on the jade slip is a magical power, which is used to summon the Yin spirit.

After reading what was written on the jade slip, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but think of the diary that the City God had shown him before.

The previous City God was originally in the mansion, but was suddenly summoned out.

It seems that the monk used this magical power at that time.

Song Yunyuan became interested and immediately lowered his head to think about it carefully.

If I learn this magical power, it will be much easier to communicate with the City God and other underworld beings in the future.

What made Song Yunyuan curious was how this magical power could summon the City God of the Underworld to his side.

"Use the power of heaven and earth to command the Yin God."

Looking at what the magic said, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but take a closer look.

When the morning sun slowly rose in the distance, casting a layer of bright color on the jade slip in his hand, Song Yunyuan put down the jade slip and carefully felt the contents he had just seen in the jade slip.

Song Yunyuan's steps paused slightly at this moment, and then there seemed to be a strange fluctuation around him.

However, this strange fluctuation only lasted for a breath and then dissipated.

"No, this so-called mobilization of the power of heaven and earth as an imperial decree is not that simple, or it should be said that it is extremely difficult."

Song Yunyuan opened his eyes again and looked at the jade slip in front of him, with a bit of difficulty in his eyes.

The magical power mentioned above is much more difficult than he imagined. Just now, he seemed to have mobilized a trace of the power of heaven and earth, but he did not actually do it.

Mobilizing the power of heaven and earth as mentioned in the jade slip is to communicate with heaven and earth so as to gradually comprehend it.

As for Song Yunyuan, he had just used up all his magical power and only then could he make a slight movement.

At that time, it only lasted for a breath.

It's just a short breath of time, but I can't do anything.

Of course, Song Yunyuan also knew that his method was wrong. According to what was written on the jade slip, he should be communicating with heaven and earth to gain enlightenment.

However, Song Yunyuan used all his magic power to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, which was wrong in itself.

However, Song Yunyuan also meditated for a whole night and could not sense the power of heaven and earth at all, so he went astray. He was going to use all his magic power to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, so that he could gain some insights.

It's just that the power of heaven and earth is too difficult to mobilize.

In just a breath of time, it seemed as if all his magical powers were drained away.

Moreover, in such a short period of time, Song Yunyuan had no time to comprehend what the power of heaven and earth was. He just seemed to have a sense of familiarity inexplicably.

"What exactly is this power of heaven and earth?"

Song Yunyuan thought about it for a long time but had no clue.

If the ancestor who created this magical power knew that there was such a cultivator among his descendants who could directly use magic power to mobilize the power of heaven and earth, he would probably be shocked.

The magical power he created was a result of chance, so he knew how difficult it was to comprehend the power of heaven and earth. It took a lot of time to get started before he could sense even a trace of the power of heaven and earth.

Song Yunyuan used his own magic power to drive the power of heaven and earth. In fact, he could already subtly sense the existence of the power of heaven and earth, but this method was too crooked.

However, no one talked about this with Song Yunyuan. Although Song Yunyuan knew that he had probably taken the wrong path, he didn't know how wrong he had gone.

"Forget it, let's hurry on."

After thinking for a moment, Song Yunyuan followed the official road towards Yingping Prefecture.

Five days later.

After Song Yunyuan crossed the border between the two prefectures and walked towards Yingping Prefecture for half a day, he suddenly felt that the surroundings had changed.

In the fields not far away, the water in the fields had already dried up, and cracks appeared everywhere.

Standing here, it seems that even the sun in the sky has become a little more fierce.

This Yingping Prefecture really suffered from a severe drought.

Song Yunyuan's expression changed slightly. Those goblins drove all the rain here to the territory of Lan Ning Mansion.

Lan Ning Prefecture was almost hit by continuous floods, and this place was so dry. This move directly destroyed the land of both prefectures. The means were really vicious.

Fortunately, Lin Dingyu has been eliminated. If such a big monster were allowed to come out, I am afraid that the world would be destroyed by him in no time.

"Be steady, don't spill the water!"

Song Yunyuan was looking at the fields in front of him, deep in thought. Then he saw that there was not a single cloud in the sky, which made him even more worried.

At this moment, several farmers came over. They were sweating profusely and walked up to the side with water on their shoulders.

Then, Song Yunyuan saw these farmers carefully come to the fields and pour all the water they carried into the fields.

However, the water that had just been poured in seeped into the fields through the cracks, and there was no sign of water overflowing at all. This was such a drop in the bucket that the farmers who came to carry water felt discouraged.

"Father, carrying water like this is not a good idea. The water we carry won't even fill up the fields."

A thin young boy licked his cracked lips, then looked at his fields with disappointment on his face.

This is just one piece of land and it’s already like this. There are so many fields of our own in the future, how can we pick them all?
"We have to keep picking even if we have to. If these seedlings die, what will our family eat this year? Your wife is about to give birth, and when the baby is born, won't she need someone to take care of her? Don't you want your wife to take care of herself?"

The old man nearby heard this and immediately glanced at his son.

Hearing this, the skinny boy moved his lips with a bit of hesitation on his face, "But father, I heard that Yingping's mansion is also short of water now, and now many water carriers have carried water to the mansion to sell, and they can make a lot of money."

"It's not a big deal for us to carry water like this. If we can sell the water in the mansion, we should be able to make more money."

The thin boy was a little hesitant. It was impossible to save so many fields by carrying water, and it was not a solution.

The river in the distance is too far from here. How much effort will it take to make a round trip?
It’s better for those who have water trucks, so they can carry more water and save some effort.

But in their case, it's not a big deal for them to carry the load on their shoulders.

Even his mother came to fetch water to help, but the water in the fields did not overflow.

"Going to the government to fetch water and sell it for money is not that easy to make. Have you ever counted how many people are selling water now? And they have water trucks to sell water. How can we compete with them?"

The old father standing by saw that his son was still not giving up, so he could only explain the reason clearly to him.

"Recently, food prices have started to rise. If the drought continues, food prices will rise further. When that happens, the money we earn from selling water won't be enough to buy food, and we still have to collect rent from the land." "Do you think we can still survive by then?"

All they can rely on now is the land in front of them, so they can't give up so easily.

After hearing this, the thin boy next to him finally kept silent, picked up the bucket and went to fetch water again.

Seeing his mother about to get up, he immediately said, "Mom, just take a rest, we'll go."

The son cares about his mother and doesn't want her to be so tired.

My mother got up to fetch water before the rooster crowed, and she is so tired that she hasn't had a rest until now.

When the old mother, who had been silent until now, heard this, she immediately smiled and the wrinkles on her face were relaxed a lot.

"It's okay, your mother is used to it, she's not tired!"

As he said this, he stood up, picked up the bucket and walked towards the river in the distance.

The river is too close to here, and the road is quite rugged with ups and downs, so it is impossible to divert water from the river for irrigation.

I heard that there were several fertile fields where there originally was a stream that could be used to irrigate the fields. But the water level in the stream had become much less, and after the water was intercepted by people upstream, the people downstream had no water left.

For this reason, the two sides fought several times over this stream, and many people died.

With just one death, the two sides became complete enemies and the fight became more intense.

The people from the government found out about it, but there was nothing they could do. People from several villages joined together to fight, and they couldn't capture so many people no matter what.

I also heard that water trucks are still available for rent, but the price is charged on a per-trip basis.

It costs three copper coins to use a water truck to pull water, but it is very profitable.

The family walked away, chattering away.

As for Song Yunyuan standing aside, they just glanced at him and didn't pay any more attention to him.

Now that the land is so dry, they really have no time to pay attention to the strangers next to them.

Watching the family go away and listening to what they just said, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but frown.

Just listening to what they said, the situation around this mansion is very bad.

But if it's just a lack of water, I should be able to solve it myself.

When Song Yunyuan thought of this, he raised his eyebrows slightly, drew a drop of wine from the gourd, and then closed his eyes to attract the water vapor around him.

The next moment, the drop of wine on Song Yunyuan's fingertips suddenly began to grow, and then expanded rapidly. After a moment, it grew to the size of a mountain magnolia.

Then, Song Yunyuan carefully sent the water down and irrigated the fields.

Song Yunyuan moved very gently to avoid directly destroying the seedlings in the fields.

As all the water, as big as the mountain magnolia, was irrigated into the fields, the water in the surrounding fields finally overflowed, and the clear water rippled and sparkled.

However, Song Yunyuan had almost sucked away all the moisture from the surroundings, making the surroundings even drier and hotter.

"However, it is very troublesome to irrigate a little bit like this. It would be better to find some wells to dig water."

Song Yunyuan pondered for a moment, and when he was about to leave, his expression suddenly changed slightly. When he looked at the fields next to him again, he saw that the water level in the fields, which was originally full of irrigation, was actually starting to decrease a little bit at this time.

Just a moment later, the water in dozens of fields seemed to be drained away by some unknown force.

"what?"

Song Yunyuan's face turned cold. Judging from what happened just now, it was clear that something was draining water from the fields here.

The water that he had worked so hard to condense was drained away by something else?
Song Yunyuan stepped forward and quickly probed underground. He wanted to find out what was sucking out the water he had condensed.

As Song Yunyuan perceived, the water that had just been pumped away quickly disappeared without a trace after reaching deep underground.

Such a scene made Song Yunyuan stunned and his brows furrowed tightly.

What the hell is this thing? How could it be so powerful? Not only did it drain all the water from the place, but he couldn't even sense where the other party was, nor could he sense any movement of the other party casting spells.

The drought in Yingping Prefecture must be due to this evil spirit.

Song Yunyuan frowned and searched underground for a while but returned empty-handed.

After thinking about it, Song Yunyuan drew out another drop of wine and continued to condense water. He had to use this method to catch the monster that was sucking water.

Just as Song Yunyuan was about to take action, the grass and trees around him rustled.

Just now, Song Yunyuan had almost sucked out all the moisture from the surroundings. If he continued to suck it out, he would have to drain all the water vapor from the plants.

As a result, these plants will die in a short while.

Seeing this scene, Song Yunyuan couldn't help but pause for a moment. After thinking for a while, he sighed and dissipated the spell.

It is not a good idea to force water to condense like this.

"I just explored and it seems that there is no water vein under this place. In this case, it is impossible to dig a well for water."

"What on earth was sucking the water out of this place?"

After hesitating for a while, Song Yunyuan continued to walk forward. He wanted to see whether the thing was just draining the water from this place, or whether the entire prefecture was within its range.

If an entire prefecture is within the opponent's extraction range, I'm afraid this thing is too powerful.

Song Yunyuan walked along the official road for a while, and the wind blowing in his face seemed to be carrying layers of heat waves, hitting him head-on.

It is so hot that if someone doesn’t know, they would think it is just the Great Heat.

However, it is only the Grain Rain season now, how can it be so hot and unbearable?

"Eh? What's going on, wife? Why is the ground so wet?"

Not long after Song Yunyuan left, the family of three came back with water. They were stunned when they saw the ground was wet.

The son standing by couldn't help but look up at the sky suspiciously. It wasn't raining, so why were the fields so wet?

Upon hearing this, the woman quickly walked to the ground and squeezed it, but no water came out at all. However, she could feel the moist feeling clearly in her hands.

"It's strange, it seems that only our fields are a little damp, but there is no water."

Several people looked around, but couldn't find the reason after a long time.

Then, when they continued to pour the water in their hands, they did not notice that the water did not overflow at all.
