Chapter 51 Chaos Omen

"Come on!" the leading officer said to the two companions beside him.

"Brother, look, we have almost harvested the grain. We can still do business when we go back. There is no need to be so angry with a monk. It's not worth it, what do you think?" the guard next to him advised.

"That's right, that's right."

"Several donors, you know, God is watching what people do, so it's better to be kind," said Wu Sheng.

"Stinky monk, just wait for me and let's go!" the leading servant said through gritted teeth.

He was a little unwilling, but he was injured and his companions were unwilling to step forward, so he had to take a step back. However, he remembered today's matter and the young monk in his heart, and planned to report it to his superiors immediately after returning.

It is said that the people of Ningjia Village believed the monk's rumors and resisted paying taxes. When the time comes, they will send people to capture the monk and put him in prison. His life will be worse than death!

"You will be punished if you do bad things." Wu Sheng said. Looking at the look in the guard's eyes that he wanted to eat him alive, he could guess that what this guy was thinking about was definitely not having fun with him over wine, but revenge in the future.

Some people will be punished for their anger.

Several guardsmen left the village with a cart of collected grains. They had just left the village and not far away when a bag of grains rolled down from the cart. The leading guard on the side stretched out his hand to grab it, but his steps fell short.

He fell into the small river next to him, with a splash and splashing water. The water was still quite cold in autumn, and he shouted in the water.

"Pull me up quickly."

Ah, there was a sudden scream, the other person was submerged under the water, and the water surface was blood red.

The two companions who were about to go down to rescue him were stunned and took a few steps back. They only saw the river water was blood red, and a black shadow several feet below flashed past, like a big fish swimming by. The companion who had just fallen

No longer know where to end.

"Retribution, retribution, this is retribution!" A guard said with a pale face.

"It's not that serious. I just collected a little more grain and scolded a monk."

"Has he done enough evil things?"

"Amitabha, this is indeed retribution." A voice rang out from beside them, startling the two of them. When they saw it, it was the young monk just now.

"Master, we were wrong, we were wrong!" The two men suddenly knelt down.

"Yes, yes, we were wrong, we don't want the food!"

As soon as the monk finished speaking, this happened. It was such a coincidence that they did not dare to try again.

"How can you do business if you can't bring back food?" Wu Sheng asked.

"Well, let's just say it fell into the river." A guard said.

"Will other people be sent to collect grain?" Wu Sheng then asked.

"This? Master, what do you think we should do?"

"Keep some of it, and you can take less of it back. This is considered a business trip," Wu Sheng said.

It is definitely not appropriate to keep all this food. At that time, other people will have to be sent, and it will be endless.

"Okay, okay, it doesn't matter if it's less, we can still do business." The guard said, "Thank you, master."

"What about him?" Wu Sheng pointed to the river.

"Just say he fell into the river and drowned."

That's how it is.

"Amitabha."

Seeing them like this, there is no sign of pain at all. It is really puzzling to say that they are companions day and night. Moreover, these errands are so mean-spirited.

In this way, the guards unloaded some more grain and distributed it to the people in the village. Then they left the village in a panic with the remaining grain. As for the bodies of their companions, they ignored them.

"Thank you, Master Wusheng." The people in the village were very happy to get some of the food back.

Wu Sheng just smiled, and then came to the river again. Looking at the river, the blood had been taken away by the water. The river was flowing quietly. The body of the police officer who fell into the water just now was also gone. He didn't know where he was.

Where.

"Master, that person drowned?" asked an elder from the village nearby.

"No, there was something in the river that dragged him down." Wu Sheng said. "Inform the people in the village not to go near this river."

"Here, the village needs water for washing and cooking!" the old man said.

Building a village near the river has brought them a lot of convenience, and their daily life is inseparable from the river.

After hearing this, Wu Sheng pondered for a while and walked along the river, looking at the village and then at the river. He was followed by the old man and two men from the village.

"This is easy. You can dig a ditch. It doesn't need to be too big. Water comes in from the upper reaches of the river and comes out from the lower reaches. You can get water from this ditch." Wu Sheng drew a simple diagram on the ground with a branch. Several people took a look.

Just understand.

"Well, this method is good." A man said.

"First dig the canal, then open up the upper reaches and the channel. The channel goes up and down, allowing the river water to flow along the terrain."

"Okay, I'll go back and discuss it with the people in the village," the old man said.

"Master, please have a fast meal in the village before leaving, right?"

"That's fine."

As evening approached, Wu Sheng returned to the temple and told other people in the temple what had happened in the village.

"It's very chaotic outside. The governors of Yizhou and Qianzhou supported their own troops and refused to listen to orders. The emperor became angry and launched an army to attack. As a result, he was defeated and tens of thousands of horses were lost." Abbot Kongkong said.

He went down the mountain a few days ago and heard a lot of news.

"Why, rebel?" Wu Sheng asked.

"The current emperor is obsessed with Taoism and dreams of immortality. He is probably out of his mind. He said that he wants to use Feng Nu's Yuanyin as a guide to practice Taoism. The Yizhou Prefecture Mu has a daughter who is as beautiful as a fairy in the heavenly palace. She happens to be Feng Nu.

The emperor ordered the shepherd of Yizhou to sacrifice his daughter and made him the father-in-law of the country. Unexpectedly, the shepherd of Yizhou loved his daughter more than his own life. In a rage, he killed the eunuch who passed the order and sealed the officialdom of Yizhou."

"What a man!" Wu Sheng raised his thumbs after hearing this.

"Then why did the governor of Qianzhou follow the rebellion?"

"I don't know about this." Abbot Kongkong said.

"It is said that the two shepherds of Qianzhou and Yizhou have known each other since they were children and have a very good relationship. Later, they became a blood alliance and became brothers with different surnames." Kong Kong on the side continued.

"Ah, Master, you know a lot!" Wu Sheng said in surprise.

He stayed in the mountains almost all day, reading those books that made people think wildly, and he was able to know so many things under the mountains. Wu Sheng felt that his master must also be a person with great stories.

"However, this Qianzhou governor is very loyal."

"I guess he is also interested in the daughter of Yizhou's governor." Kong Kong added.

"Well, another shameless old man marries his brother's daughter. Now that the hierarchy is no longer chaotic, how should we call each other, eldest brother or father-in-law? Then what does Yizhou Zhou Mu's daughter look like? How attractive is she?
