The people are like devout Muslims, praying silently and sincerely awe of ghosts and gods. They would rather believe that all natural disasters are punished by the gods. Once the gods ask for anything for this, they will spare no effort. Some scholars who study and become officials believe, while others disagree with them... That's it, they also know that the people are taking this trick. For example, Jia Yucun's judgment, the gourd monk urged to support the phoenix and invite the immortals, which is also a feudal superstition.

On a distance, several carriages were parked on the flat ground on the roadside, servants and servants laid blankets on the green grass. The sky was clear and the weather was clear, and the wind was gentle. Luo Guoqi wore a square scarf, a silk shirt, and a jade pendant on his waist. He squatted down the blanket, picked up the wine, and toasted him with a glass of wine.

Two young men sat opposite him, with white faces as white as jade. Qi Jia said, "Senior Brother Daqi, the one standing behind is what the senior brother calls Jia Zili of the Duke's Mansion?"

"Yes, the next year, you are all enemies of each other. When it comes to the name of a child prodigy, you two are even more than Jia Cong... But Jia Cong is very smart, and even the county master adopted his theory of river management." Luo Guoqi and polite wise men poured wine for the two.

Another young man Gu Zhen said arrogantly: "You are in Wanping, I am in Daxing, Daxing County, I have no rivals anymore. Qionglou Yuyu, the high place is so cold! Senior brother, what do these foolish men and women do?"

"Watch the changes and wait and see." Luo Guoqi was gentle and could enjoy it very well. He drank a cup of wine and food, which made everyone there envious.

Jia Cong in the crowd just glanced at them, and County Magistrate Fan whispered: "All arrangements are done? Don't show your strength."

"Don't worry, county lord." Jia Cong smiled. As soon as he had just talked, Kuang Liuhe had already taken out a peach wood sword on the opposite side of the high slope, chanting spells, casting spells, and burning talismans. His paddy field clothes were the same as Jia Cong, adding a bit of Taoist charm to him. Jia Cong taught him the opportunity in person, and Kuang Liuhe received his kindness and encouraged him a lot. When he heard that he could "eliminate harm for the people", he would not obey.

Kuang Liuhe's reputation as a filial son also gives the villagers a good impression. Many people know that he tells fortunes, and some places are quite effective. Kuang Liuhe is afraid that people will think he is young, so he pretends to be old and the villagers don't expose it.

"The god of the capital and rivers in all directions and four seasons is here. Who is the master here?" Kuang Liuhe's tone changed drastically, old, serious and powerful. His eyes sharply scanned the entire audience under the high platform, as if a sacred and inviolable god!

"Oh my God! The River God is possessed! The River God is possessed..."

"Lord River God bless us!"

All the people were so dark that they knelt all over the ground, extremely pious! They bowed to their tribute! Song Lichang was shaking with excitement! The elders shouted that the sky had eyes!

County Magistrate Fan was half-believing and half-doubted, his little eyes flashed, and the people made way down from the slope. County Magistrate Fan bowed and said, "Reported to Lord Heshen, Wanping is now the young man who is the head of the county, and he is the parent official of this county. This year, the water flooded thousands of acres of Wanping's land. People were deeply hurt. The county dared to ask, but someone offended Lord Heshen? Lord Heshen has something to ask, and the county will definitely sell its money and lose everything. As a parent official, he will do whatever he wants!"

"Master Qingtian!" Song Lichang shouted excitedly!

Some people were even more excited and tearful and kowtowed. When Jia Cong saw this scene, he wanted to laugh, but more heavy! This is the foolish man and wife in the scholarly population! They cannot withstand natural disasters and have to pay heavy taxes! They have to obey corvee service without the guarantee of food for life! But in such a false play, they believe it. What the people want is just food and clothing. It is simple, but there are both natural disasters and human disasters. The world is not kind, and corruption is rampant!

"The reason why I am angry is that the water is flooding Wanping is because someone deceives his superiors and hides his subordinates." Kuang Liuhe snorted coldly, his tone is not humane: "One of you, some people use soil and sand, using inferiority as good ones, and filthing the sacredness of this god. Thirteen miles south of the city and twenty-four miles, the embankment does not use dust. You go and check it!"

Among the crowd, Luo Wu and several other corrupt people felt something was wrong and moved quietly backwards. But when they arrived at the periphery, Ma Dianshi laughed and said, "Consul Luo should not leave first, dare to disrespect Lord River God? Are you afraid that the people will tear you alive?"

Luo Wu and others' expressions suddenly changed. When they looked back, the people were indeed angry! They were not angry about him, but why were they angry? Someone defiled the River God, wasn't they their public enemy?! The materials were inferior as good? The people who suffered the loss were not the people along the coast. This violated their simplest bottom line for survival, and the people were very angry!

Song Lichang was angry: "Master Qingtian, Caomin will take someone to see you now!"

The people also said and asked to check it out. County Magistrate Fan was sweating all the time. The trick Jia Cong gave him was not only useful or not, but his grasp of people's hearts was really terrible! Once so many people lost their minds, how could the county government stop it? County Magistrate Fan had to comfort him to death and send someone to investigate.

The people from the fast-track found out that they carried back a few sacks of earthblocks! Lord River God was right, some people used inferior products as good ones! There were serious problems with river control materials! How long can the embankment be supported with these earthblocks? The people became more and more angry!

County Magistrate Fan kicked the county magistrate: "You go and ask Lord He Shen, don't you care about the bills for Hualiu and Tumu? Go check it yourself!"

The county magistrate felt frustrated, but had to follow the instructions of the leader and said respectfully: "Report to Lord River God! Your old god is a good idea, but this... there are too many river craftsmen, and it is difficult to find out who is named after the humble position."

"No need to check it! Bastard!" Kuang Liuhe's voice seemed to float from the sky, extremely majestic: "These people are remembered clearly. The leader is a thirty man named Zhige. He pushed this person into the Yongding River, which can stop the sword and the anger of this god! There are also Xia Jia Chang, Chen Li Chang, Li Ergou..."

Jia Cong took the opportunity to say, "Zhi Ge, Zhi Ge, isn't it the thirty men? Isn't it the Luo family's Luo Wu? My fellow villagers! Lord River God said that they not only defiled the river God, but also harmed the Wanping Dike and bullied my Wanping elders!"

"Tie! Tie them! Throw them into the river!"

"The Luo family is too bullying! Just burn his family!"

The anger of the people could not be suppressed! They just wanted to repair the embankment and rely on their own labor to eat and wear warm clothes. They had a place to live and have a piece of land. Such simple requests were strangled! Why? Why?! They didn't say anything, their eyes were red, like a fierce tiger or a hungry wolf. They tied Luo Wu, Xia Jiachang and others in sacks, and tied them tightly with thick ropes.

"Master Luo, save me!"

"It's unfair! Lord River God spare us..."

With a few thuds, several sacks were thrown into the Yongding River. In the past, people who managed the river did not know how to bind water to attack sand, and they blindly deepened and widened the river channel, so the water was still quite shallow. Moreover, the terrain of Hebei was tilted from west to east, and the plain was not the hinterland of the plain. The river had a drop. Those people tied into sacks and could not save themselves, so they could only die... Today, the turtle and fish and shrimp in the Yongding River were blessed...

"Lord River God" finally said that he had to build a temple for him and then leave, and the people worshiped him again. They felt that it was normal for this request. They stood up one by one, and some people looked at Luo Guoqi, who was enjoying the wine and food by the official road...

County Magistrate Fan was happy and looked at Jia Cong, and the two smiled sinisterly...

Qin Ye, county magistrate, chief clerk, and clerk were stunned...

Luo Wen had already reported that Luo Guoqi was afraid and stayed there, and these foolish men and women would not tie him up and put him in Yongding River. Although he had a scholarly reputation and the county magistrate would not sit idly by, it was hard to say... He was shocked, terrified and angry, and did not care about the manners of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, and was gentle and elegant. He left Qi Jia and Gu Zhen, two prodigy, and got into the carriage and fled...
