Chapter 110 Maogong Spring
Maogongquan is in the famous landscape of Qi County "Tiangongyan". △↗The next day, Xun Yi brought Zhang Song and Liu Ziming to Maogongquan. In addition, Bai Fu and Wenzong secretly followed each other.
Tiangong Rock is said to have evolved from the flint that fell from the sky a hundred years ago. Because of its strong fire, a severe drought occurred in Longchuan County. Later, Maogong tried to seal the flint and inscribed the magic circle with the Changbai sword to convert the fire into a source of water.
The spring water is sweet and comes from the sky stone. It is named "Tiangong Rock" and means that the heaven is beautiful.
Springs kept flowing from the Sanzhang Fairy Rock that was inserted on the cliff. The spring water danced like white, and it accumulated a pool at the foot of the mountain. The three words "Maogongquan" are written on the stone tablet next to it. The spring water referred to by the people is essentially this pool.
This pool feeds people from a hundred miles away and is inexhaustible.
But now, the pool is turbid, and the spring water above is almost invisible, with only a drop of water falling slowly.
Xun Ying came out to greet Xun Yi, pointed to the drop of water in the sky and bowed to Xun Yi: "Brother, you said that you are like this now. Even if I force you to make water and make wine, how dare you use it to worship your ancestors?"
Xun Yi saw several buckets floating on the pool, and the people next to him looked at the water droplets in the sky with hope. This water was their lifeline.
Xun Yi could not drive these people away no matter what. He used the droplets of water falling from the sky to brew wine?
If this kind of wine brewed with the blood and tears of the people is used to worship his ancestors, I am afraid that the ancestors will kill him first.
"There is also grain, and the harvest this year is completely useless." Xun Ying smiled bitterly: "I have temporarily suspended the work of the winery and asked the hired farmers to take care of their own family. As for the food they owe, I will make up for it next year. So, the wines that others have ordered are all planned to be replaced with aged wine, which is a loss for me."
Xun Feng has a pure and kind personality and advocates harmony to make money. In addition, Xun Huan protects the god of wealth, and the winery is operated nationwide. However, because of the severe drought this year, it may affect the winemaking for a long time in the future.
"Not to mention the Xun family, even the wine in the palace cannot be provided. You also know that because of the origin of the Xun family and the royal family, the 'Four Seasons Mengyue Wine' advocated by our ancestors was also accepted by the royal family."
Gong Maode used the wine that had been stored for a year as a sacrifice. Under his words and deeds, Li Chun and his son also accepted this concept. When worshiping ancestors in Taimiao, they did not need to be aged wine, but made in Meng Yue in the past to sacrifice new wine that had been stored for a year.
"This time I can't take out the wine to offer our ancestor worship to the next year. Can the ancestor worship be taken out by the royal family?" Xun Ying smiled bitterly: "If it really makes the royal family unhappy, it's a sin to lose its head."
Xun Yi deeply sympathized with Xun's experience. He also planned to use the name of the head of the family to reduce the hired farmers of the Xun family this year.
However, no matter how Xun Yi thought about it, he never expected that this year's drought would be so serious.
Staying at home, I really can't understand the outside world. Xun Yi sighed and secretly said to Wen Jue: "Did the gods have no reaction?"
Wen Punishment stood at the top of the mountain to sense the changes in the weather and sent a voice to Xun Yi: "Now, it is sensing that this drought is still a natural change in the weather. No monks and monsters are in trouble."
Flood and drought occur every year. Therefore, the City God Mansion did not react at the beginning. Even if it was a little strange, it would only mistakenly think that the Earth Mother God Palace started.
"So, what about saving. Can I use the power of the City God to offset this drought?"
"I don't know whether the source of the drought is unclear. I need to contact other gods. Moreover, if you want to rescue the disaster, you need to discuss with people with the divine veins such as the God of Agriculture and the God of Fortune." Wen Jue said in detail, this is a long and tedious task.
Xun Yi was very unhappy: "It's almost time for someone to die, so can't you be able to get along with it?"
"This is the rule of the Heavenly Court." Wen Jue said: "After all, the City God is a landlord in name, but he has specialized in his skills. We cannot disrupt the overall regulation of others. If the young master is really worried, he can go to the Parthenon Temple or other places to inquire."
When Xun Yi heard this, he asked about the whereabouts of Xun Feng's Parthenon Temple and ran directly to the Parthenon Temple to burn incense.
However, although the Parthenon Temple is protected by spiritual light, the gods inside are not in the temple. So Xun Yi went to find other gods, but the whereabouts of the gods responsible for agriculture were all gone.
"No, why are these gods not here?" Xun Yi was surprised and puzzled. At this time, two officials in the distance were angrily leading a group of officials to disperse the people around the pool.
Xun Ying was about to come forward to stop him, and a carriage came from afar. There was a white man on it, with a soft voice: "Boss Xun, I see that there is still some water in Maogongquan. If we collect it day and night, how many pots of tribute bars should be able to make?"
The man was sweating profusely and kept squirting with a fan: "I came out of the palace. Before leaving, the empress deliberately gave instructions that it would be necessary to worship the ancestors next year, so there should be no trouble."
Xun Feng smiled bitterly: "Eunuch Zhang, this water is turbid, and it is all the water used by the lives of the people nearby. At present, even their lives cannot be saved, so how can we talk about making wine?"
"Besides, even if there is water, it's not harvested this year."
"I have planned this point long ago. I just need to find a few warlocks to force the seedlings to give birth to grain seedlings. Others can't control it, but the grains used to make wine can be produced!"
"This..." Xun Ying suppressed his anger and looked at the person from the palace. "Dadfather-in-law, isn't this too much?"
"Excessive? If I can't go back with tribute wine, then I will lose my head!" Eunuch Zhang looked fierce. Now is his most critical moment. ********** Because he is old, the Empress is preparing to change another person. If she can show herself at this time, it will be her future for the next few decades.
"Boss Xun, you'd better take someone to start the furnace and make wine. Don't worry about other things. Otherwise, even if you are from the Xun family--"
"What's wrong with the Xun family?" The loud voice of the young man sounded: "Zhuohua Taoyao!"
Peach blossoms were flying in the air, and the officials who drove away the people were forced to retreat by the sword energy. But Xun Yi had no intention of killing people, just forced them back.
Eunuch Zhang's neck lit up, and he saw an extra boy on the carriage.
In white clothes, Xun Yi put Chang Bai sword on Eunuch Zhang's neck: "What's wrong with our Xun family?"
"You..." Eunuch Zhang was frightened and sweated coldly behind her back. Two generals accompanying him were about to come forward to save the person. The official officer got up from the ground and pulled out a machete to surround Xun Yi.
"He Fang's criminal dares to hijack the palace envoy, why don't you release Eunuch Zhang!"
Xun Ying's face turned pale and he quickly went over to stop a few generals: "If you can't do it, you are all your own people. Don't use any weapons. Oh..." He didn't stand firm all of a sudden, and Xun Ying fell to the ground.
Xun Yi held Eunuch Zhang and looked at the officials and generals who were about to move not far away: "This sword Changbai, can I use this young master to say more if I have any extra words?"
The officials and generals suddenly changed their faces. They temporarily held down Guancha and carefully looked at the Changbai sword in Xun Yi's hand. The wooden sword was blue and black all over, with some simple and mysterious patterns on it.
"Chang Baijian?" Eunuch Zhang vaguely thought of something.
"I'm not the leader of the Xun family. This father-in-law makes things difficult for our family, and I don't know what's going on?"
The head of the Xun family, Chang Bomu Jian! Eunuch Zhang was sweating in cold sweat.
The Changbai Sword is a treasure inherited by the Xun family. It is said to be of great power. At that time, all three generations of Dukes of the Xun family wore this sword.
Zhaozong even said: "The wood is upright and the cypress is always stern, and the murderer is not guilty." Of course, this sentence was originally given to his son, which was later Yingzong.
Yingzong was the crown prince born to Empress Xiaowen, a daughter of Maode. When she was young, she was greedy and stole the Changbai sword of her uncle Xun Yu. She occasionally saw a bully running around in Longcheng and stepped forward to stop her. Later, she couldn't stop and beat the bully to death. In order to protect her son, Zhaozong simply defended her: "Changbai is a magical object in wood, and she has its own supernatural powers, and only those who punish the evil ones." Later, this sword was punished by Xun Jian's hands. Yingzong even praised this sword. Even if Xun Jian took action first and then reported, Yingzong also took the protection of his cousin as the premise.
Over time, the Changbai Sword has become a "shangfang sword" of a special meaning. Among the stories circulating in the market, there are many myths of the Changbai Sword.
Several officials thought something was wrong, and one of them quickly smiled: "It turned out to be the head of the Xun family. I heard from someone that the new head of the Xun family had just succeeded to the throne, but he didn't think so..."
Too young, several officials thought to themselves unhappy.
Eunuch Zhang's expression was stiff: "Young Master Xun's son, I came to supervise the tribute wine with the Empress. Even if you have Chang Bai Jian in your hand, how dare you resist the order?"
"But it is even more hateful to falsely spread the imperial edict. No matter what the Empress of the Central Palace said, it did not allow you to drive away the people and monopolize the water source." Xun Yi smiled and said, "If the Empress of the Central Palace learned that you did this, my father-in-law thought that he would give you golden gourds after he went back? Or a jade board?"
There are many examples of hitting the top of the gourd, brain bursting and dying. Or hitting the stick with a stick, killing people alive.
Eunuch Zhang originally wanted to complete the task quickly in desperation, but now after thinking about it carefully, according to the Queen's attitude of cherishing her reputation, this matter was really exposed and she could not escape death.
Of course, the premise is that someone exposes it. Eunuch Zhang secretly had murderous intent in his heart. Xun Yi seemed to feel something and smiled and said, "If something happens to me, do you believe it or not, someone will go to the palace to make an injustice?"
This is not about the Rui County Prince's Mansion but Ying Xiu.
Xun Yi knew Ying Xiu's temper very well. If Ying Xiu knew that something had happened in Longchuan County, he would probably change into mourning clothes and go to the Golden Palace to complain.
Xun Yi helped Eunuch Zhang to sort out his clothes and said slowly: "But I know my father-in-law's mood. My son Baba came over and was also for Mr. Mao to drink. If you can't produce wine this year, how can you face your ancestors and your tribe during the autumn festival next year?"
Eunuch Zhang felt aroused and forced a smile: "Yes, the Xun family also needs Maogong wine. Why not give you some tribute wine from me?"
"According to my father-in-law's plan, it is probably difficult to brew much, and the ancestors will never want this kind of wine made with the blood and tears of the people."
This is a world where gods reside in the world. How could those ancestors know yin and yang?
"Of course, I am not willing to be an unworthy descendant. I have already browsed this matter, and I will solve it within three days."
"Eunuch Zhang, you and I have the same interests. Can you wait three days ago? Let everyone retreat and let the people come to get water. If there is no other way after three days, I have to follow my predecessors and use Changbai sword to turn rock into water." Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotian.net
