Chapter 173 Murderous intention appears
“Be careful.”
Xu Hongyu looked at Chen Mu and finally whispered.
Chen Mu is the supervisor of the Supervision Department appointed by Yan Jingqing. It is naturally impossible to stay in Yucheng during the tide disaster. At least one of the two rivers and six rivers must be under his control. Although Xu Hongyu also wants to follow Chen Mu, she knows that she is not strong enough. , encountering any danger might even hinder Chen Mu, so staying in the city would make Chen Mu more at ease.
Moreover, with the Kanshui artistic conception she has developed, in such foggy days, her perception ability is much stronger than that of ordinary people, and she is more suitable for operating in the densely populated Yujun City, either to hunt monsters or to prevent water damage.
“rest assured.”
Chen Mu nodded slightly at Xu Hongyu, then stretched out his hand to flick away a drop of mellow rainwater in her hair, and said: “When this tide disaster passes, we should…well, Yucheng has arrived.”
In the middle of talking, I suddenly felt that the style of painting was strange and a little unlucky, so I stopped halfway. I happened to see some outlines of Yucheng in the distance in the hazy white mist.
soon.
The carriage arrived under Yucheng.
Looking around at this time, we can see that the moat surrounding Yu City is already so turbulent that it is almost overflowing. All the city gates have been closed and blocked, including the moat, which has also been cut off by the gates.
“Who!”
There were patrolling guards in the city shouting at the hazy carriage.
But as soon as he finished speaking, something flew up from below. The guard subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it. He immediately saw that it was a command talisman with the words “Order of the Chief Supervisor of Yu County” on it, and his expression changed.
“It’s Lord Tosi!”
“Hurry up and put down the hanging basket!”
The guard immediately shouted loudly in the distance.
But then Chen Mu’s voice came from below, saying: “No need.”
The words fell.
I saw a figure walking along the towering city wall, and landed on the city in a few leaps. She was wearing a light-colored gauze skirt, but it was not stained by any mud or dirt in the rain, and even the pattering of rain quietly slipped away on her shoulders.
After Xu Hongyu climbed up the city wall, she was followed by Xiao He. With some difficulty, she borrowed some strength in a few places and also climbed up the city wall. Finally, she let out an exclamation, but it was Chen Yue who was hugged by Chen Mu and lifted up directly. Thrown on the city wall.
This is not over yet.
Chen Mu cut off the carriage with his hands, lifted up the brown-maned horse driving the horse by its legs, and with one force, he threw the strong brown-maned horse with a trace of monster blood up to more than twenty meters. High walls!
The brown-maned horse neighed in the air, its limbs and hooves swinging wildly. But after flying up the city wall, Xu Hongyu immediately reached forward. Although it was a little reluctant, she still caught it and put it aside.
The guards nearby were stunned.
Chen Yue flying up was nothing, but for such a tall horse to be thrown up a city wall of more than 20 meters with a roar, it was still very shocking. For a while, his expression became more respectful and he stood aside.
Chen Mu glanced at Xu Hongyu and others on the city wall from a distance through the white fog that obscured his vision. However, he did not go to the city. He only took a breath, lowered his gaze, turned around and walked away. After a few steps, he disappeared into the mist.
On the way here,
He had already received an order from Yan Jingqing to take charge of the ‘Qingping River’ area.
Now that the tide disaster has come, he has been delayed for some time escorting Chen Yue and others on the road. Naturally, he will not follow him into the city to rest and drink tea. After sending the people there, he will directly turn around and go to the Qingping River area. , In ancient times, Dayu controlled floods and passed through his house three times without entering. This was nothing to him.
He is not a saint who cares about the world and the country, but he has always been in his position and performed his duties.
“My uncle doesn’t even want to go home first…”
Xiao He stood on the city wall, standing beside Xu Hongyu, watching the blurry figure under the city disappear completely, he couldn’t help but whispered, and pulled Chen Yue’s little hand next to him.
Xu Hongyu kept staring at the hazy mist, opening up all her senses of Kanshui’s artistic conception, until she could no longer feel Chen Mu’s breath, then she restrained her breath and murmured a few times in her heart.
……
Qingping River is one of the six major rivers in Yu County.
It crosses Jingyu and Pingyu counties and converges with the “Wusha River”, one of the two rivers in Yu County.
Compared with the two rivers, the Qingping River is not that wide, only thirty or forty feet wide, but its water is very turbulent, far more than the other five rivers. During tide disasters, it is one of the most dangerous rivers. Among the tidal disasters over the years, the Qingping River floods have caused far more casualties than other major rivers.
Yan Jingqing asked him to take charge of the Qingping River. There was no doubt that he was giving him the most difficult task besides the two rivers. He would not slack off and rushed to Qingping as quickly as possible.
Although it is very foggy.
But for him now, no matter how thick the fog is, as long as the power of heaven and earth is not chaotic, it is impossible to get lost.
“I don’t know what’s going on with the two counties.”
Chen Mu was walking quickly in the fog. At this time, he did not distinguish between official roads and narrow roads, crossing all the way, and murmured in his heart.
At this time, the tidal disaster had just begun, and the floods should not have broken out yet. If the officials in the two counties could do something, they should have already started to evacuate the people in the villages close to the river area.
As the supervisor of the Supervisory Department, he supervises Yu County, and he has a photographic memory. Now he has a clear map of Yu County in his mind, even down to a county and a township, and the Qingping River Basin is also very clear.
“All the common people in the central areas of Jingnan and Jingzheng townships must be evacuated. The terrain in that area is low-lying, and there are no dams on both sides of the river. Once the tide breaks out in full, these two low-lying areas will be flooded.”
This was something he had already considered in advance after receiving the order, and he needed to think about it more carefully at this time.
“In fact, if this part of the river can be diverted and dams can be built to lead it into the two hundred miles of wilderness on the other side, the impact of the tide disaster will be greatly reduced, but…”
Chen Mu shook his head.
Building dams and changing river courses requires money and even more people.
In today’s world, where officials are corrupt and use force to violate prohibitions, it is basically unnecessary to think about such a big project. Even if Yan Jingqing is willing to allocate money and use his majesty to force it to be done, it is impossible for a dignified supervisor to do so. Even if you can go and stare at the river for a year or two in person, you will not know what has been filled in the dam when you turn around.
When there was another flood disaster more than ten years later, the river embankments that had been carelessly managed were washed away by the flood. I wanted to ask the officials who were in charge where I could find them again. Even Yan Jingqing himself was probably no longer in Yu County.
As for sending people to keep an eye on them, who can be sent?
From the disciples and deacons of the sect to the officials of the major families in Yu County, who doesn’t want to get benefits first?
Wow, wow.
The rain unknowingly fell heavier.
Chen Mu couldn’t help but speed up his pace, running fast in the rain.
As the rainfall increased, the Qingping River floods would come faster. He didn’t know how the Li people had evacuated the most important places, and he had to rush there as soon as possible.
The pitter patter.
Drops of raindrops as big as a baby’s finger continued to fall, causing puddles to appear on the ground under Chen Mu’s feet unconsciously. The thick white mist dissipated a little, and he could see farther.
But just as Chen Mu kept running forward, suddenly there was a glimmer of light in his eyes. He was still running fast, but he exerted force with one foot and suddenly turned over in the air, leaping high into the air for several seconds. ten feet.
laugh! Almost as Chen Mu leaped into the air, the white mist on his left side suddenly split into two from the center. A sharp sword energy came through the air and slashed through the area he had crossed before. A ravine stretching several feet was left on the ground!
After Chen Mu dodged the blow in the air, he landed in a mud puddle, with countless muddy water splashing under his feet.
He ran no further.
Instead, he looked around coldly.
“Heavenly Sword Sect?”
In the split white mist, a figure wearing a mysterious robe walked slowly. His face was full of old wrinkles, and he held a sword in his hand. He looked at Chen Mu with a cold look in his eyes.
“The information is indeed wrong… To be able to predict in advance and dodge my sword, the perception of qi movement should not be something that can be achieved by initially entering the Xunfeng artistic conception. It seems that your Xunfeng artistic conception has reached the second step. ”
The second step of Xunfeng artistic conception! If you only understand the two artistic conceptions of Xunfeng and Zhenlei, then it doesn’t matter. At most, you have an understanding comparable to that of the great masters. But it is different if you can understand the artistic conception of the second step. With Chen Mu’s age, he can It is said that he will definitely be ranked among the true legends, and even his ranking among the true legends will not be very low.
Sure enough, he agreed that He Wuyou’s proposal was correct. Chen Mu could not see any abnormality in his destiny, but since his rise, he has exceeded expectations every step of the way. He is a person whose destiny fluctuates greatly. He must be killed as soon as possible. Of.
The rain is getting heavier.
It turned into heavy rain, pouring down one after another.
“It turns out to be Deacon Liu of the Xuanji Pavilion. The sword energy just now should not be the sword intention, but the late autumn mood.”
Chen Mu stood in the muddy depression, glanced around without raising his eyes, and said in an indifferent tone: “Who else is there? Since we are already here, why hide?”
“Hahaha, you are indeed a talented person who can understand the second step of the artistic conception. His courage is extraordinary. No wonder Brother He wants to kill you so much. Now even I feel that it is the right time to come here.”
In the mist behind, another figure in black robe walked out. He was younger than Liu Su. He looked to be in his forties or fifties. There was a faint smile on his face, but when he looked at Chen Mu, Glowing with murderous intent.
Cai Jiusheng had no intention of coming, but Liu Su’s arrangement was just right. After killing Chen Mu, he just had time to go to the river area he was responsible for. It was more of a drop-in here, and now it seems that taking the route was a very correct decision. .
Chen Mu, in a small place like Yu County, was able to understand the second step of Xunfeng’s artistic conception. This kind of understanding is enough to be called terrifying. After all, even the Seven Mysteries True Inheritance like Meng Danyun has not yet understood it. The second step of Xunfeng artistic conception.
Such a person may become the kind of person Yan Jingqing is in the future!
“Mysterious Deacon Cai Jiusheng.”
Chen Mu said calmly. He now has a lot of information about various sects. Even if he has not seen his true appearance, he can basically recognize a person of the deacon level at a glance: “He Wuyou is also here, there is another person.” Who is it?”
Although He Wuyou never showed up and wanted to sneak up on him secretly, his aura had already been captured by him, but besides He Wuyou, there was a fourth person in his perception.
“Hahaha, Brother Chen’s perception of the second step of the Xunfeng artistic conception is indeed extraordinary. Even I can’t hide it. I’m actually just a follower. As long as Brother Chen dies in the hands of the three of them early, then I There’s no need to waste any effort.”
Click! Click! !
As the words fell, a figure stepped out of the mist on Chen Mu’s right. With every step he took, the muddy puddles under his feet froze into ice. Wherever he went, the white mist condensed into a piece. Pieces of ice mist are like ice flowers blooming.
The true biography of Xuanji Pavilion, Cheng Houhua! “Is this the true inheritance of Xuanji Pavilion? I didn’t expect that I, a small supervisor, could attract such great attention. I troubled four masters of the five internal organs to set up an ambush here, and mobilized troops and people like this. I’m really flattered.”
Chen Mu glanced at Cheng Houhua indifferently, and then looked to the left. The last mysterious figure appeared in the white mist. Although he was wearing a mask and couldn’t see his face clearly, his aura was something he had sensed when he was in Yucheng. Once, he would never admit his mistake, it was He Wuyou.
No worries! Cheng Houhua! Two Xuanji Pavilion deacons! In order to kill him as a supervisor, when the flood disaster came, he was not in Yucheng. When he was going to deal with the flood, four existences of the Five Zang Realm were lying around, blocking all roads and cutting off all life! (End of chapter)
