Seeing Li Yi's appearance, Zhong Xiaoqi asked cautiously: "Thatlittle Taoist priest, do you know Sister Jingxuan and Sister Weiyan?"
More than just acquaintance? However, Li Yi didn't want to get too entangled in this matter, so he nodded and asked, "Miss Zhong, listening to what you and Yan Kuang said, it seems that you know the cause of the drought in western Hunan?"
When Li Yi talked about the severe drought in western Hunan, Zhong Xiaoqi suddenly fell silent. After a long time, she said with a depressed face: "Maybe I only found out about it recently. I'm not sure, but there's no use knowing it." , Xiangxi is destined to encounter this disaster"
Li Yi was stunned. He didn¡¯t expect that Zhong Xiaoqi really knew the cause of the severe drought in western Hunan. But why did Zhong Xiaoqi say that Xiangxi was destined to encounter this disaster?
"Miss Zhong, this severe drought is only in the area from western Hunan to Shaozhou City, where our Yunshan Sect is located. Pindao once asked the old Dragon King of Panyang Lake and said that there was no jade decree issued by Heaven that said no rain could fall in these places. Li Yi shook his head and said with sincerity, "Miss Zhong, I hope you can tell me the reason for Pindao so that we can discuss countermeasures. If there is no rain from the sky, I am afraid that only one out of ten people in these places will die."
"Ah are you very familiar with the old Dragon King of Panyang Lake?" Zhong Xiaoqi's eyes lit up, then became sad again: "We here pray for rain at the Dragon King Temple every day, but it is of no use"
As she talked, Zhong Xiaoqi became angry: "My fellow villagers would rather starve to death than offer good things to the Dragon King Temple. But how can those Dragon Kings in the Dragon King Temple care about the lives and lives of our fellow villagers? In my opinion, , these Dragon King temples should be demolished"
The dragon clan is in charge of rainfall in the world, so there are Dragon King temples everywhere in the land of China. Once disasters such as drought and waterlogging occur in a certain place, the first thing people think of is to worship the Dragon King temple.
Uh the little girl went off topic, and Li Yi had to bring the topic back and said, "Miss Zhong, I'll leave the Dragon King Temple alone. The top priority is to find the real cause of the drought."
Zhong Xiaoqi rolled her eyes at Li Yi, but she did not blame him. Instead, her expression was gloomy and uncertain, and she was obviously struggling internally. Finally, she said quietly: "I can't tell you outsiders about this matter."
Li Yi wanted to go crazy when he heard this: "Shaozhou City, where Pindao Yunshan Sect is located, is also suffering from a severe drought, and all the people are about to die." Finally got some clues, why is this happening?
Suddenly, Li Yi remembered what he had heard when he was following the three people of the Yan family, and asked: "Miss Zhong, is it because of our ancestors!?"
"Ah! How do you know about your ancestor?" Zhong Xiaoqi was shocked when she heard this.
Seeing Zhong Xiaoqi¡¯s expression, Li Yi knew that what he expected was about right, so he stared at Zhong Xiaoqi without saying a word, waiting for Zhong Xiaoqi¡¯s explanation.
"Okay, don't look at me like that. Now that you know about our ancestors, I'm telling you!" Zhong Xiaoqi seemed to have made up her mind: "After all, you are my savior today, and you, Shaozhou City, are also victims. I don¡¯t want the drought to continue like this. By then our Xiangxi will really turn into an uninhabited desert"
Zhong Xiaoqi made up her mind and said: "The ancestor is the Goddess of Drought. I saw from the ancestral records of our Zhong family that it is said that the ancestor is about to be born"
¡¡¡¡¡¡
The goddess of drought? !
Li Yi looked up at the bright moon in the sky, which was about to set in the west. The night was blurry, and the breeze was gently blowing through the mountains From the looks of it, tomorrow will be another sunny day.
Li Yi sighed: The goddess of drought is born, and now we are in big trouble.
It is recorded in the ancient book "The Book of Mountains and Seas": The human emperor Huangdi Xuanyuan and the Wu tribe's war god Chi You led an army to fight in Zhuolu. Xuanyuan received the help of the dragon tribe Yinglong and launched a flood to besiege Chi You's army. Chi You invited Feng Boyu Master to use his plan. Instead, Xuanyuan's army was surrounded.
Seeing that he was about to be defeated, Xuanyuan had no choice but to kill his mount Kui Niu and use the skin of the Kui Niu as a drum. He also invited the Drought Goddess to help. The Drought Goddess brought down the severe drought while using the Kui Niu drum to guide the direction. Only then were they able to get out of trouble and finally defeat the Chiyou Wu tribe.
The Great God Yinglong and the Goddess Drought Demon performed extraordinary feats in the war that was related to the survival of the human race. Therefore, Emperor Xuanyuan enfeoffed the Great God Yinglong in the southern part of the Middle-earth China and the Goddess Drought God in the northern part of the China. From then on, the southern part of Middle-earth China was rainy and the northern part was dry.
Although the Great God Yinglong and the Goddess Hanba were granted the title of Emperor Xuanyuan, they were both seriously injured in the Battle of Zhuolu and lost all their magic power, so they had to retreat to heal their wounds. It is well known that the Great God Yinglong retreated in the East China Sea. At the eye of the sea, no one knows where the Drought Demon Goddess retreats.
Because the drought in northern China originated from the Drought Goddess, people in the world misunderstood that the drought may be caused by the Drought Goddess, and the symptoms of the Drought GoddessThe heat emitted can isolate the heaven and the earth, preventing the flow of yin and yang between the heaven and the earth. Therefore, the image of the Drought Goddess in the folk has gradually changed from positive to negative.
If the Drought Goddess is really born, then the cause of the severe drought in western Hunan may be like this, but how did the Drought Goddess get here?
"The records say that the Drought Goddess was seriously injured after the war and needed to retreat for healing. However, the Drought Goddess is a yang body and must be nourished by extremely yin things." Seemingly seeing the doubts in Li Yi's heart, Zhong Xiaoqi explained:
"The most gloomy thing in the world is the water of the Styx in Fengdu Ghost City. However, Fengdu Ghost City is the residence of all ghosts. It is the entrance to the underworld. The injured body of the Drought Demon Goddess will not attract attention in Fengdu Ghost City, so the Drought Demon Goddess We took a back seat and came to our Xiangxi."
"Western Hunan is not far from Fengdu Ghost City. There is the Valley of Nine Netherworlds in the towering mountains. It is the holy land of our Xiangxi cultivation world. There is an underground river in the valley called the Spring of Nine Netherworlds. Records say that the Goddess of Drought Demon lives there. Beside the Nine Nether Spring."
"We have three great arts in western Hunan, namely driving away corpses, releasing gu, and Luohua Cave Girl, all of which are related to the Goddess of the Drought Demon. According to legend, the art of driving away corpses was taught by the Goddess of the Drought Demon; the poisons released by cultivators need to be infused with the spring water of Jiuyou. Transform into spirits; and the Luohua Cave Girl takes an unmarried woman and offers it to the Goddess of the Drought. Therefore, we in the Xiangxi cultivation world call the Goddess of the Drought as our ancestor."
"Originally I didn't think about this, but later I saw that Yan Kuang and his son were ingesting ghosts day and night. I secretly followed the three of them and found that the three of them offered all the captured ghosts to their ancestors. I went home and looked through them. According to the classics left by our ancestors, it can be deduced that the Drought Demon Goddess has been in seclusion for thousands of years, and may be about to recover from her injuries and will be born soon."
Zhong Xiaoqi is young after all, and she has such a big secret hidden in her heart. She will let it out quickly, but her heavy heart suddenly feels lighter.
However, after hearing this, Li Yi was speechless for a long time.
