Fifty, the water of the Yellow River comes from the sky

When everyone arrived at Laojun Temple, they saw that the temple was seriously damaged. Two of the three main halls collapsed. The behind-the-sacrificial house was also desolate. There was only one old Taoist priest guarding here, and he was deaf and dumb. Seeing Zhou Xuan and his party hugging in, he was stunned and his hands and feet trembled. He hid in the back house and could not come out again.

Li Paijun sighed, "I passed by here ten years ago. The incense in Laojun Temple is still very popular, why are you so miserable!"

Yang Zongbao said: "It is common for temples to rise and fall. We just rest for a night, have all the dry food and meat, and go to remove some walls to make fire and boil water-"

It was just Zhengshen time. It was usually bright at this time, but now I can’t see people clearly outside ten steps. Even if it’s rainy, it won’t be so dark. This weather is evil!

All the horses were led to the hall corridor, shaking their manes and sniffing. Twenty Yulin Guards and sixteen Zhou Xuan's personal soldiers brought dry food and soybeans for the whole day. At this time, they all fed the horses with beans. A few of them went to the decaying side hall to tear off some dilapidated wooden boards to burn the fire. In late spring, the weather should be warmer, but the rainstorms in the past few days, the wind blows coldly, and the fire has to be burned at night to keep warm.

Apart from sheltering from the rain, there is no housing for so many people to rest. I can only sit on the ground and take a nap at night.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "I didn't expect that traveling far away would be so embarrassing. Thank you for your hard work. I'll invite you to drink tomorrow."

The Yulin Guard and the Fenghua Army both said in unison: "Follow the Duke of the Kingdom, you will be happy in the suffering."

Although seven of the 200 Jinwu Guards who followed Zhou Xuan to the Southern Han last time died, they had great pensions and the rest were rewarded. The imperial guards in the capital were honored for being able to follow Zhou Xuan. The Duke of Zhou was kind, generous, generous, and would never treat his subordinates unfairly.

The rain stopped at this time, and the sky shone back, and there was a red sunset. The original dimness swept away, but in the northern sky, a line of black clouds gradually spread out, and there was a heavy rain.

Taking advantage of the dawn, Zhou Xuan, Yang Zongbao, Siqi went to the backyard to find the old Taoist priest to borrow a pottery pot for boiling water. The backyard was overgrown with weeds and was desolate. The mud and water in the back mountain kept flowing down, and deep cracks appeared in many places.

Zhou Xuan frowned and said, "The terrain is not right. It will be bad if it encounters mudslides."

"What kind of mudslide?" Yang Zongbao asked.

Zhou Xuan pointed to the back mountain and said, "The soil mountain will be soaked softly after days of heavy rain. It will collapse. Mud and stone are all over the place, and it cannot be resisted by manpower."

The four ignorant people are knowledgeable and said in a terrifying manner: "This is called a mountain collapse or a mountain destruction. It is extremely terrible. No matter how capable you are, it will be a dead end."

The trees and rocks of the mountain are as strong as a Buddha, and they are very steady. Yang Zongbao said: "This temple has been going on for decades, but it has not been washed down."

Zhou Xuan looked at the deep ravines at the foot of the mountain and said, "It's a once-in-a-century encounter. The son of a thousand gold cannot sit in the hall. We can't stay in this dilapidated temple. We should find another place to rest and find a high terrain. This temple is at the bottom of the valley. If there is something wrong, it will be too late to run away."

They didn't ask the deaf Taoist to borrow a teapot. Zhou Xuan and the other two returned to the hall to explain the situation. The soldiers naturally did not dare to refuse to follow. They stood up one by one and put on their own straw hats and raincoats, and led their horses out of Laojun Temple.

Zhou Xuan asked Lihu to find the old Taoist priest and avoid it together. Since he had encountered it, he always had to help him. Unexpectedly, Lihu came back after a while and said that the old Taoist priest was holding an iron sword to cut him.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Forget it, let's go. It's better if we are greedy and afraid of death. It's not that easy for this mountain to collapse."

Yang Xiaopin poked his head out of the car window and called out: "Young Master--"

Zhou Xuan knew her feelings and said, "I'm riding my horse, you put down the bamboo curtains, and the heavy rain is coming soon."

Everyone left the valley and walked along the road. The sky, which was half black and half red, just now fell completely black in a blink of an eye, as if a thick black curtain was pulled up all at once, covering the sky.

Zhou Xuan shouted: "Drop off the horse and walk, walk out of this valley, and go to the open land in front to find a place to rest."

Suddenly a soldier shouted in front of him: "Duke, why are there so many toads on this road? Ah, there are snakes, and they are running around everywhere, wow, there are rats!"

Zhou Xuan was shocked. Snakes and rats jumped around and toads jumped around. This is a sign of a natural disaster. Is it going to earthquake? My buddy is so lucky. I encountered a big storm when I went to sea last year, and this time I had an earthquake. Why are the good things? All the bad things happened? It’s really not easy to think about how many days of comfortable life!

Zhou Xuan shouted, "Continue to move forward, don't stay in this mountain gap!" He urged the horse to approach Yang Zongbao and asked the Li Paijun: "How many miles is this mountain road? Is there an open land in front?"

Li Paijun said: "Mr. Zhou, this area is full of mountains. You have to go to Suijiazhuang to have an open land."

Zhou Xuan said: "Teach everyone, we will travel overnight and go to Suijiazhuang to rest." He thought to himself: "As long as it is not in the house, an earthquake is not scary. After all, the possibility of a big crack falling into the ground is too small. My buddy's luck will never be so bad, but I am afraid that the earthquake will cause mudslides. If this is rushing down, it will be gone. However, there is no need to tell the soldiers at this time, so as not to panic and will cause bad things."

The group rushed in the dark, only two wind-proof and rain-proof lanterns hung on the front of the carriage in the mountains. The wet ground was red, and heavy rain was pouring down. The straw hat and straw raincoat were covering the light rain. Such heavy rain was pouring inside and outside, and Zhou Xuan was also wet and cold. There were toads and snakes on the ground, so he didn't care about it at this time and trampled by.

It was completely dark and the rain became heavier and heavier. I said "The sudden rain will not last long", which means that the heavy rain will not last long and will stop soon. However, the rain has been falling for more than half an hour, but it has not weakened at all, and it seems that it will continue until the end of time.

"Boom" muffled thunder sounded, and it seemed that a Thunder God's chariot really crossed the sky from the north sky, and rolled over the heads of Zhou Xuan and others. The rumbling sound continued, as if the sky was about to collapse.

At the same time, feeling the earth tremble slightly, Zhou Xuan shouted: "Be careful, it may be an earthquake."

Everyone slowed down and walked carefully. There was no movement for a while, but everyone's mounts and the golden retriever Lulu were inexplicably manic, neighing and barking, and refused to tame them. The two horses who were pulling carts did not walk on the road, but wanted to rush to the hillside.

Zhou Xuan felt even more uneasy and asked Li Paijun: "Have there been any major disasters in this area in the past hundred years?"

Li Paijun thought for a while and said, "The flood rose more than fifty years ago, flooding three prefectures and ten counties, killing tens of thousands of people, and displaced more than 100,000 people--"

Zhou Xuan suddenly remembered what the old man in Mudan Garden said in Cao County and asked in surprise: "Where did the flood come from?"

Li Paijun said: "The Yellow River broke the dam. That time, the Yellow River broke the dam in the Huangji area. The river was diverted and merged into today's Qianli Liangshan Pond."

"Ah, Liangshanpo!" Zhou Xuan was stunned. It turned out that Liangshanpo was formed by the Yellow River burrow fifty years ago. If my buddy could live to be two hundred years old, she would still see Song Jiang's black short.

At this time, Zhou Xuan could not think about the heroes of Liangshan and said loudly: "Li Paijun leads the way and find a mountain with tall trees. When we go up the mountain, maybe the flood will soon rush over, and everyone will follow closely."

When everyone heard this, they were filled with awesomeness. It was very likely that heavy rains continued for several days. If the flood came this night, there would be no way to survive. I immediately followed Li Paijun to the mountain in the left head, holding the reins of the horse. The horses were struggling to move forward without waiting for their owners to pull them up. These livestock had a natural premonition of avoiding natural disasters.

When Zhou Xuan went to call Yang Xiaopin, Yang Xiaopin had already packed up a bundle and carried it across his back. It was Zhou Xuan and her clothes. He had a flute tied around his waist and held the pipa brought from Jinling in his arms. This pipa was Yang Xiaopin's beloved thing. There were many precious treasures in the carriage. She didn't even take it, so she wanted to carry the pipa.

But Siqi couldn't bear to let go of the things in the carriage, where there were her tea sets and Go. With a "Hula", he pulled off the felt curtain of the carriage, wrapped some utensils, treasures, and jewelry in the carriage in the felt curtain, and quickly tied them into a big bag and put them on his shoulders. Siqi was thin and small, and this big bag was larger than her body.

Lihu said: "Mr. Fourth, let me carry it. Take good care of the master."

The four mysterious men knew that the Lihu was powerful, so they handed the large package weighing 100 kilograms to Lihu. Lihu shouted "Hi" and held the red horse in one hand, and followed everyone up the mountain with the golden retriever Lulu.

Zhou Xuan pulled off his weak clothes and put them on Yang Xiaopin. Yang Xiaopin said anxiously: "Young Master--"

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "My body is already wet, and it's useless to wear it. It's even more uncomfortable. Your dress is dry, you put it on." Without saying a word, she put the hat on Yang Xiaopin, tied the tie on her chin, held Yang Xiaopin with one hand and climbed towards the eagle-billed peak.

The coachman was reluctant to leave the two big horses driving, and was busy untiing his belt, and wanted to free the two horses from under the yoke.

The Siniang pulled out a short knife, and the knife was like the wind. The yoke of the car broke. Once the two horses were freed from their restraints, they immediately followed the other horses to the mountain.

Zhou Xuan held Yang Xiaopin and climbed up the mountain. Yang Zongbao carried his two-foot-foot pear blossom gun and followed behind him with his mount. At the end, the four cynical people were holding "Zhaoye Yuhua Cong" and "Yunzhonghe".

Zhou Xuan took the bag that Yang Xiaopin was carrying and put it on his shoulder, and asked her to hold the pipa by herself, holding her hand, climbing up the mountain in the dark, so Yang Xiaopin could keep up.

Zhou Xuan praised the greatness of the young Zhou Queen at this time. It would be a blessing forbidden for women to bind their feet for generations. If the sheep frown was a little foot, he would have to go up the mountain again. Wouldn't he be exhausted to death?

Everyone went up to the hillside, and the rain was not as heavy as before. There was a hollow cliff that could accommodate five or six people. So they invited Zhou Xuan, Yang Xiaopin, Yang Zongbao, and Siqi to go in to shelter from the rain. The rest were standing under the trees, and some people looked down at the mountain.

I heard the thunder rolling in the north, but it didn't roll over my head for a long time, but the rumbling sound became louder and closer-

At first, everyone was listening to the huge rushing sound, and someone suddenly shouted: "Big water, the water is coming!" Then they realized that they were afraid that the terrain would not be high enough, and the water would come up, so they called Zhou Xuan and Yang Zongbao to continue climbing to the top.
