Two Worlds: I Became an Immortal
Chapter 161 He Bo
Chapter 161 He Bo
"There's water, there's water, pull me up!"
The old beggar became a little anxious and shouted loudly to the people above.
He wanted to go up and see who the master who performed this magical power was and where he was.
As long as you can find each other, there is hope for practicing Taoism.
Is there water?
Hearing this, the yamen runners who were about to leave were stunned for a moment, and then turned back helplessly and said, "If there really was water, it would have been there just now. Why did we have to wait until now?"
"Even if you want to live, you should..."
Halfway through his words, the yamen runner beside him was stunned, because he seemed to really see a glimmer of light in the well below.
The yamen runner was stunned when he saw this. He was very sure that there was no water underneath. How could it be that
"grown ups."
At this moment, the bailiff quickly turned around and shouted to the county magistrate standing beside him.
The county magistrate who was called knew that his subordinates probably called him because something happened in the well, so he lowered his head to look.
When he saw the water in the well overflowing to half the old beggar's body, he was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
"Quick, quick, pull that person out for me!"
The well water below is full, so of course we can't let the old beggar continue to soak in it. This old beggar hasn't taken a bath in who knows how many years. If we let him soak in it, is the water still drinkable?
Upon hearing this, the bailiff nearby hurried forward, took out the ladder and let the other party climb up.
A moment later, an old beggar with half of his body wet came up and immediately looked around, trying to find the master who had just cast the spell.
But he glanced at the people around him, but did not see anyone who looked like a cultivator.
Seeing this scene, the old beggar in front of him was stunned for a moment, and then he became more and more anxious.
Did the master just leave after casting the spell, or did the master hide in the crowd so that he couldn't see through him?
But no matter which one it was, the old beggar in front of him wanted to go forward and find this master.
However, the county magistrate, after confirming that there was water in the well, came up to the old beggar with a smile on his face and bowed to him.
"Please forgive me, old sir. I hope I have offended you just now, please forgive me!"
His previous attitude was that he thought the old beggar was just a liar.
But now the sudden gushing of well water made him realize that the beggar in front of him was really capable!
With such ability, his attitude naturally changed and was no longer the same as before.
After all, this one well is not enough. We will need the other party's help to find more wells in the future. Maybe we can take this opportunity to survive this year's drought.
The old beggar felt anxious when he saw the county magistrate blocking his way, but he couldn't just walk away. So he dealt with the county magistrate while looking around into the distance.
I hope to find the person who did it.
"Half an incense stick of time should be enough to keep you safe."
Song Yunyuan glanced at the old beggar who was rescued, and his eyes couldn't help but look towards the well.
The water that just condensed did not directly touch the surrounding walls. Perhaps because of this, the water has not been directly sucked away by that thing.
But the problem is
What on earth could be so brutal that it could drain all the water from the surrounding water veins?
As Song Yunyuan headed towards Yingping Mansion, he felt puzzled.
Forget it. I haven’t gone to ask the City God before. It should be in time to go today.
A moment later, Song Yunyuan returned to Yingping Mansion and after asking passers-by, he came to the City God Temple.
After Song Yunyuan entered the City God Temple, he pondered for a moment, drew the yin and yang energies, lightly tapped his feet, and the Eight Trigrams vaguely appeared.
"Please ask the City God of Yingping Prefecture to show himself."
As Song Yunyuan finished speaking, strange fluctuations suddenly spread all around.
The next moment, a young man in a robe appeared in front of Song Yunyuan.
The young man was obviously stunned. He looked around with some doubt and then his eyes fell on Song Yunyuan.
"Who are you?"
The young man looked at Song Yunyuan steadily, his eyes full of vigilance.
He was in the underworld just now, but how come he was called out all of a sudden? The feeling of being out of control made him feel frightened.
If this person is hostile to him, I'm afraid today's matter will be difficult.
When Song Yunyuan saw the City God appear, he recalled the feeling just now. It seemed that the other party was forced out by him, so he immediately bowed.
"I am an idle monk. I have something to ask you, Lord. I apologize for disturbing you."
Looking at the other party like this, Song Yunyuan also realized that the method he just used seemed a bit too presumptuous, so he quickly lowered his posture.
The City God in front of him was suddenly called out, so he was naturally a little angry, but knowing that Song Yunyuan was very powerful, he did not dare to show it.
Looking at the monk in front of him, the City God of Yingping City could not help but frowned, "What do you want to ask, Excellency?"
"It has been rainless for months in Yingping Prefecture recently. I think the Lord of the Prefecture should have known about this."
Song Yunyuan said calmly, and when he saw the mansion lord nod in front of him, he continued, "I know the reason why there has been no rain this month, but after coming here, I found that the water veins here were sucked away by something unknown, so that the people here can't even dig a well."
"I wonder if you, Lord, know the reason behind this, what caused it?"
When Song Yunyuan said this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
I really don't know what could do this. All the water in the underground veins and the fields would be drained away, and I couldn't feel what did it.
Even Song Yunyuan couldn't feel the slightest fluctuation of magic power.
This is extremely strange. Could it be that the other party is too powerful that he can't feel any fluctuation of his magic power?
Or maybe the other party's methods were beyond Song Yunyuan's comprehension, so he couldn't sense them.
No matter which possibility it is, it is a very terrifying thing.
The City God of Yingping Prefecture felt a little resentful when he saw Song Yunyuan's brutal treatment just now.
But when he heard Song Yunyuan talk about this, his face immediately darkened slightly.
He didn't expect that Song Yunyuan came because of this matter.
There has been little rain in Yingping Prefecture this month, and he had just found out some clues, but he didn't expect that the other party already knew the reason.
But what the other party said next shocked the City God.
He knew nothing about this matter.
"Is there something draining the water veins around Yingping Mansion?"
After thinking for a while, the City God said with some hesitation.
Even though Song Yunyuan said this, he still felt a little hesitant, wondering if there was some misunderstanding involved.
Otherwise, what kind of monster could achieve this, and what would be the benefit of doing so?
Otherwise, if he believed Song Yunyuan's words alone, he would be easily deceived.
"I saw this with my own eyes. If you had seen it with your own eyes, you would not know about it. Even if you don't know about this, but today you saw the water in the well drying up one after another, you must have some doubts, right?" Looking at the hesitant look on the City God's face, Song Yunyuan knew that the other party probably did not believe what he said.
Immediately, Song Yunyuan asked the other party whether he knew what had happened today.
If he knew, he should have known that the well water in Yingping Prefecture had dried up during this period.
Sure enough, after Song Yunyuan finished speaking, the City God in front of him suddenly fell silent.
Of course, he was clear about what Song Yunyuan said.
But before, because I was busy trying to figure out why it didn't rain, I naturally ignored this matter.
If Song Yunyuan hadn't suddenly brought it up this time, he would have probably ignored it at this point.
Now that Song Yunyuan suddenly brought it up, he also noticed something wrong.
The fact that the wells dried up one after another was indeed too abrupt.
"Regarding the underground water veins, this government really doesn't know much."
After knowing that the other party was here to inquire about this matter, the Lord of the Palace also answered seriously.
What the other party was talking about was, after all, related to the stability of Yingping Prefecture, so he was prepared to answer as many questions as he could.
Seeing the Lord's reply, Song Yunyuan was slightly startled, and then looked at him strangely.
The meaning is very clear. You are also a lord of a mansion. Do you really not understand the situation here at all?
When the Lord of the Mansion saw Song Yunyuan's look, he suddenly felt unsettled.
Of course, he also knew that Song Yunyuan was right in saying this. This was the underworld here, and it was in charge of matters like this.
He didn't even know that something had been stealing the water veins recently, which showed that he was a bit incompetent.
But when it comes to this matter, he is indeed helpless.
In terms of Taoism, his abilities are indeed relatively low. He has not received much worship over the years and does not have much ability himself.
Therefore, he had no way of investigating the recent events. If he had not noticed something was wrong, he would have been swept under the rug and the matter would have been concealed.
The City God doesn’t know about this?
Seeing the City God in front of him like this, and looking at him carefully, he didn't seem to be lying.
It can probably be seen that the other party really doesn't know the trick here.
"Do you know if there are any fairies that have such abilities?"
Song Yunyuan thought about it and decided to ask from a different angle.
The City God thought about it carefully after hearing this, "If there is any fairy who can do this, I think any fairy with high cultivation level can do it. Extracting water veins is not a great skill."
"However, if you want to avoid being discovered, then this goblin must be extremely powerful and have a very high level of cultivation. For a goblin like this, I think his cultivation must be at least several thousand years, or even more powerful."
When the City God said this, he paused slightly, and his face became a little sad.
If they really encountered such a monster, Ying Ping Mansion would be in big trouble.
This city god really knows nothing.
At this moment, Song Yunyuan could probably feel that the power of incense from the City God in front of him was obviously much weaker than those of other City Gods he had encountered before.
It seems that the City God's ability is a little weak, so he cannot know what is happening around Yingping Mansion?
Seeing that he couldn't get any more information from this place, Song Yunyuan shook his head and prepared to turn around and leave.
It's obviously a waste of time to continue here, so I should look somewhere else, maybe I can find some results.
"So, I'm sorry to bother you."
Song Yunyuan bowed, turned and left.
The City God became anxious upon seeing this. He could also see that if this matter was not handled properly, it would endanger himself as the Lord of the Mansion.
The incense is not very popular to begin with, and if this disaster happens again, it will be even worse.
At the moment, it seems that the monk in front of him is much more powerful than him. If he can let him solve this problem, it will definitely be beneficial to him.
Thinking of this, the City God took a step forward and said, "Please stay."
"Well, what else can I ask of you, Lord?"
Upon hearing this, Song Yunyuan stopped and looked back at the Lord of the Mansion with some confusion.
I have already asked all the questions that should have been asked, so I don't think there is anything left out.
If that's the case, then why did the other party call me?
The Lord of the Mansion met Song Yunyuan's gaze, hesitated for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Although my abilities are low and I don't know what happened, there is a river god in the largest Yellow River in Yingping Prefecture. With his abilities, he should be able to know what happened."
"If you don't mind the trouble, why don't you go to He Bo and ask him a few questions?"
After all, since it concerns his future worship, the City God dare not neglect it.
After much thought, the only person who can find out which demon did this is probably He Bo.
He Bo?
When Song Yunyuan heard the name, his heart suddenly moved slightly. Is this the god who is in charge of the rain and water veins here?
Before this, Jing Chen was unwilling to come here to make clouds and rain without permission because he was worried about offending the River God.
If that's the case, then I have to meet He Bo.
"Thank you!"
Song Yunyuan turned around and bowed to the City God, then strode out of the City God Temple.
After Song Yunyuan had completely left and his back was no longer visible, the City God breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, nothing should be wrong, right?
With the power of the River God, it should be quite easy for him to find the guy who extracted the water veins.
As long as he can resolve the drought in Yingping Prefecture, he should be able to keep his position as the lord of the prefecture in the future.
He Bo
At this moment, Song Yunyuan came out of the City God Temple and arrived at the gate of Yingping Prefecture after a while.
Just when Song Yunyuan was about to leave the city, he heard the discussions of the people around him.
"It's really strange. We just dug a well and saw the water in it, but how come the water is dry in the blink of an eye? Could it be that some monster appeared in our Yingping Mansion and came here specifically to steal the water?"
"That's right. The old beggar was quite capable and was able to find a well. However, it was useless. He found the well, but there was no water in it!"
"If this continues, there will be a drought this year. I'm afraid it won't be long before the Huangyuan River dries up."
The people around were talking about it at this moment, and their faces were all filled with worry.
