Chapter 385 Baishui County

.

Qingyan couldn't help but close the scroll and sighed. Although the catastrophe of the Gods and Demons was extremely far away from him, the scenes drawn by the words in the book were really shocking, and even shuddered as if in front of him. There was such a chaos in the world, and it was a disaster caused by the cultivator. Thinking about the people who died in this calamity, especially those innocent people, Qingyan's heart ached slightly, and he suddenly had a doubt in his heart, what is the purpose of cultivating the truth?

He had thought about this question before, and at that time he seemed to have connected this question, but as his age and cultivation grew, he gradually matured and dug out the question from the bottom of his heart. Why is cultivation?

"Oh" I thought for a long time, Qingyan sighed and shook his head slowly. He finally understood that he could not solve this problem. When he thought about it, I am afraid that even the great god Fuxi might not be able to explain this problem clearly, although he is already a god.

"The gods are helpless." Qingyan suddenly understood Fuxi's painstaking efforts to leave Fuxi's Eight Trigrams, and that conflicting mood. He wanted his juniors to have the power to resist disasters, and they also had less ambitions. He had to separate the Eight Trigrams and seal the Haotian Mirror. This would at least reduce some problems and his heart would be less guilty. Alas, being a god is also very tiring.

After a while of emotion, Qingyan continued to read. After talking about the chaos of Gods and Demons, Xiao Ding talked about his original intention of editing this book and some of his own affairs. Xiao Ding himself was a master of cultivation, and the era he was in was the stage of the chaos of Gods and Demons. He personally experienced the entire process of the catastrophe, but he was neither a god nor a demon cultivator. He did not participate in that war. Because he saw the chaos in the world, Xiao Ding was really a little discouraged. He originally wanted to escape to the mountains and never come out, but when he thought that the originally picturesque country would definitely be beyond recognition after the war. In order to let future generations know that there were many beautiful things in the world, Xiao Ding decided to record the things that were about to disappear and on the verge of extinction, so he had this book "The Ambition of Gods and Demons".

Xiao Ding spent a hundred years editing this book, recording as much as possible what he knew, saw, and heard. The book was divided into ten chapters, covering astronomy, geography, animals, plants, minerals, etc. It can be said to be from all over the world and all-encompassing. Most animals and plants were extinct during the rebellion of gods and demons, and only one or two left behind, but those who survived absolutely had extremely strong vitality and extraordinary points, among which the golden-winged roc bird that Qingyan had seen.

Qingyan first found the record of the golden-winged roc. Xiao Ding's narration of the golden-winged roc is very detailed. It says that this bird is born with the spiritual energy between heaven and earth. It already exists when the heaven and earth are first formed. After passing through the energy of the **, it breaks out of the eggs. There is only one egg between heaven and earth, regardless of yin and yang. Regardless of male and female, the golden-winged roc will eat its egg shell as soon as it is born, otherwise it cannot be reborn. The golden-winged roc is reborn every thousand years and turns into a giant egg after death. It will break out into a shell when it is appropriate to break out. This bird is extremely ferocious and huge. It spreads its wings and can cover the sky and the sun. It can sing and penetrate the nine heavens and eats dragons. It likes to harm human lives. It can swallow hundreds of lives in one bite. It is the most evil bird in ancient times. People who practice cultivation cannot escape it.

Qingyan couldn't help but feel frightened when he saw this. Since the golden-winged Roc bird was so vicious, how could it have no malicious intentions to him? He hurriedly looked down and then suddenly realized. It turned out that Fuxi saw that the golden-winged Roc bird was too evil, so he conquered it with his supreme magical power, and used his magic power to eliminate the innate evil roots of the golden-winged Roc bird and sealed some of its great abilities. Then the golden-winged Roc bird stayed with Fuxi, and his life was over for a thousand years and turned into a giant egg. But since then, the golden-winged Roc bird never appeared again, and it must have been completely destroyed by the great god Fuxi.

The result of the Golden-winged Roc is just Xiao Ding's guess. Qing Yan certainly knew that the great god Fuxi did not destroy the Golden-winged Roc, otherwise where would Jinyu come from? After reading these, Qing Yan understood the meaning of Master Guangxian giving him this book. The master wanted to let himself understand the origin and origin of the Golden-winged Roc, so it would be easier to communicate in the future. Since Jinyu was also removed from the evil roots by Fuxi, he had nothing to worry about. This book "The Ambition of Gods and Demons" is really good. Xiao Ding is worthy of being a strange man of a generation. He has left such a useful record and has made great achievements for thousands of years.

Qingyan was enjoying reading it with relish, and the contents in the book were so strange. Just when Qingyan was fascinated by it, he suddenly frowned and asked, "Who is outside?"

Qingyan stayed in an inn in Tongguan County. He liked peace and he booked the backyard of the inn and told the guy not to come in casually. It was great to stay for a few days. Unexpectedly, someone came in without saying hello today.

"It's me, Taoist priest." Someone outside the door replied respectfully.

Qingyan knew that the innkeeper Xiao Li was here. He had been serving tea and meals these days, but he shouldn't have come at this time. Qingyan was a little surprised and stood up to open the door. When Xiao Li saw him, he hurriedly bowed. He didn't know why. Since Qingyan stayed in the hotel, Xiao Li, a guest inn who had seen countless people, had a deep awe for Qingyan, the young Taoist priest. Seeing that Yan was displeased, he didn't even dare to say anything.

Qingyan didn't feel that he was putting too much pressure on others, and asked casually, "Is there anything wrong?" Xiao Li was actually not young anymore, at around thirty years old, and when he heard Qingyan's question, he hurriedly said, "I'm disturbing Taoist Master, a young..." Qingyan said in the intercept, "Didn't I say it? I'm not an adult. Don't call yourself a young man, just say it if you have any questions."

Xiao Li wiped the cold sweat on his head. He was smart and versatile, but he couldn't speak when he met Qingyan. "Master, this...I..." Qingyan saw him like this and smiled unconsciously, "You don't have to be nervous. If you have something to say, come in and sit and say it."

After entering the house, Xiao Li refused to sit no matter what. Qing Yan did not force himself and asked, "What's wrong with you?" But Xiao Li not only stopped talking this time, but directly knelt down in front of Qing Yan with a "plop". Without saying a word, "Teng Teng Teng" would be a few sounds.

Xiao Li's actions surprised Qingyan and caught him off guard. When he helped Xiao Li up, Xiao Li had already kowtowed several times, and blood was bruised on his forehead. Qingyan said in surprise, "What are you doing?" Xiao Li wanted to kneel down again when he heard this. How could Qingyan make him happy this time? With a slight force, Xiao Li's body could no longer go down.

"Master, please save us," Xiao Li finally shouted.

Qingyan was stunned when he heard this and said strangely, "Save you?" Xiao Li nodded very hard, and said with a miserable expression, "Master, I know you are not an ordinary person, you can definitely save us."

Qingyan became more and more strange. After he came here, he did not do anything or showed his Taoist Dharma. How could Xiao Li say so surely that he was not an ordinary person, and said, "Why did you say that? I am indeed a Taoist priest, an ordinary person."

Seeing that he refused to admit it, Xiao Li was very anxious and hurriedly said, "Master, I know you are a master of Taoism and don't like to show off, but for the sake of our more than 10,000 people in Baishui County, you can save us." As he said that, his eyes suddenly burst into tears and his expression became more miserable.

More than 10,000 people are not a trivial matter. Qingyan was moved and saw that Xiao Li was crying miserably, and he felt uncomfortable. He comforted him, "What is it? If it really matters more than 10,000 people, I am afraid that I don't have that great ability to help you."

When Xiao Li heard Qingyan’s intentional help, he stopped crying and choked and said, “As long as the Taoist priest is willing, it will be fine.” Qingyan didn’t feel funny when he saw that he was so confident in him, but he looked bitter, and he didn’t laugh on his face, so he could only say seriously, “Then just talk, I see if I can help.”

When Xiao Li heard Qingyan say this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly wiped his tears, then told Qingyan about a strange thing that happened in his hometown Baishui County.

Baishui County is located in the north of Tongguan County, and the two counties are only more than 100 miles apart. Because there is a Baishui River in the county, it is named Baishui County. Baishui River is a tributary of the Yellow River and the river is not large. However, the irrigation of crops in the whole county of Baishui County depends on it. The county proverb says, "White water flows, crops are harvested, white water is cut, and crops are difficult."

Farmers rely on the weather for their meals, and only when the rain is enough can they produce harvests. Baishui County has the Baishui River as its support. In previous years, there was insufficient rain. However, with the river water coming down from the upper reaches of the Baishui River, the crops basically had a good harvest. Therefore, Baishui County is also a wealthy county in Yaozhou. But this year, Baishui County suffered a severe drought that had not been encountered in a century.

Qingyan had already understood after hearing Xiao Li talk about this, and thought to himself, "He wouldn't really think I am a god who can summon wind and rain, clouds and thunder, don't it rain, who can do it? I don't have such great ability." Thinking of this, he interrupted Xiao Li and said, "You have to know that this drought is a natural disaster. You won't want me to ask for rain, if this is the case, I'm powerless."

Xiao Li shook his head and said, "Master, you don't know that the severe drought in our Baishui County is not a natural disaster."

Qingyan was stunned and said, "It's not a natural disaster, what is that?" Xiao Li sighed, "It's a monster that is committing a crime. I want the Taoist priest to remove the monster."
