Li Chengfeng and the others walked a long way until they got on the train. Looking at the revolving scenery outside the window, they were still depressed and uncomfortable, unable to relax.
Although Lingshan is not far from Cheng'an, it stands to reason that if Li Chengfeng works hard, he can get home in half a day.
But until now, he has been fighting all the way up the mountain, and every step is startling. Except for his mother who went up the mountain to see him once, he has never gone back to see him once.
Even when he got the first place in the assessment and became the master of the Hidden Sword Pavilion, he was not able to go back to make his mother happy. He just found Zhang Jinbao and asked him to give it to his family. My mother brought a letter.
Li Chengfeng didn't think much of it at the time. After all, there were more important things at hand. The seven-day preparation seemed like a lot, but in fact, the handover of the master of the Zangjian Pavilion was a pile of things that were piled up, and Sun Yongcai and the others returned to Tibet. The proper placement of the Jiange is something that Li Chengfeng needs to worry about.
The most important thing is that Lingshan sent his disciples to conquer Shenjing, and Shitian Pavilion went with him. How much coordination and handover matters were involved
Moreover, after the Tiange War and the Qiongqi Incident, the Lingshan Sect had a mountain of follow-up finishing work. What was even more frightening was that the big man and the little man in the forbidden area died suddenly at the door, and King Zhu Yan escaped from the forbidden area. Such appalling things set off within the Lingshan Sect. There was a terrible undercurrent.
Although Ma Qianli relied on his personal prestige to suppress the matter, the disciples were still talking about it privately and were frightened.
Others didn't understand, but Li Chengfeng knew in his heart what was going on.
Ma Qianli asked You Walker to investigate the Lingshan Sect disciples one by one in private, but he did not expect that the real culprit had already escaped, and the leader of You Walker who was chasing the murderer was the real accomplice.
When Li Chengfeng was thinking deeply, suddenly there was a sound of horses neighing from the front of the speeding train, and then the train gradually slowed down and stopped.
Everyone in the carriage staggered around again, and Li Chengfeng and others were all shocked and angry.
Could it be another big cultivator fighting
This is too much of a deception, and you still chase them in front of them to fight? Keep an eye on them
The Chidao train on Guanzhi Road is a specially designed sleeper rail. When horses run on it, they cannot stop on their own. However, in order to avoid accidents on the road that sometimes cause car crashes and fatalities, each car will be followed by two people. The highly skilled coachmen obviously noticed something was wrong ahead, so they controlled the horses to slow down slowly.
This kind of technical work is like the executioner's ancestral sword skills. It is passed down from male to female, from within to outside. It is the only way for them to eat.
Li Chengfeng and others naturally had no intention of admiring the superb skills of the driver in front. In order to avoid another rollover accident, they all ducked outside and stared nervously around.
But when they looked at it later, they were all stunned to find that there was a surging crowd in front of them. There seemed to be an endless stream of people rushing in one direction. They crossed the Chidao train like a tide, some dragging their families and others rushing. The carriages, some carrying canes, were filled with the cries of children and the shouts of adults calling for lost children.
"What's going on?" Li Chengfeng was stunned. "What happened?"
The senior sister and others naturally didn't know. She glanced at Ouyang Xiu. Ouyang Xiu's figure flashed and appeared in the crowd in the distance. After asking a few questions, she quickly returned with an ugly look on her face.
"The embankment of the Anhe River was damaged by fighting before. Now it has burst. The water has spread to nearby towns and villages. The people are fleeing to higher ground." Ouyang Xiu looked a little unbearable.
Li Chengfeng took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "I won't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me."
Everyone here has read books and naturally knows what Li Chengfeng means.
Although the disasters suffered by these people were not caused by themselves, they were indirectly caused by other practitioners. As fellow practitioners, they felt a little uncomfortable when they saw such disasters.
Zhan Qisheng, who had been silent all the way, suddenly smiled and said, "Senior Brother Chengfeng, does he want to go to disaster relief?"
These words touched Li Chengfeng's mind. With his temperament of seeing injustice on the road, he naturally wanted to help, but... there were so many people here, how could he help
Li Chengfeng thought for a while and said: "With our strength, it would be a bit overestimating our ability to settle these victims. But if we block the river and prevent the flooding, we should still be able to do it."
The senior sister sneered: "There are so many disasters in the world, can you save them?"
Li Chengfeng wanted to refute, but heard the senior sister say coldly: "The fact that these victims came here shows that the flood was not serious. Moreover, you went to provide disaster relief, and what did the government do? Do you think the government would thank you? No, the government will impeach you! Daqi does not allow private disaster relief, do you know why? Aren’t you afraid of the court cutting off your head if you get ahead of the government and offer a favor? Yes, you are a great practitioner, so naturally you are not afraid, but you Dad, where is your mother? Are they afraid?"
Li Chengfeng's heart trembled, and he immediately realized what the senior sister meant.
No matter in any dynasty, the government will never allow local people to donate privately for disaster relief. Otherwise, if there is a disaster, the victims will be everywhere, easily numbering hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands. If someone is tempting them with small favors, it will be easy to coerce them into one group. Very scary power.
Even if Li Chengfeng and others go to build embankments to provide disaster relief, that won't work.
The reason is very simple, because a court manages rivers and river engineering roads, and some sea engineering roads manage sea roads. Some of them manage river embankments, and some manage sea dams. Every year, the court allocates a huge amount of money to build and repair them. If Li Chengfeng and the others could repair these dams with just a few clicks, then what would be the purpose of these river and sea engineering roads
What are these officials going to do? How do the countless river workers and sea workers who work and eat on the dams live
There are many twists and turns here. Li Chengfeng immediately understood the twists and turns of Senior Sister. He looked at the common people, and his heart was extremely heavy and bitter.
"The peaks and ridges are like clusters, the waves are like raging, the mountains and rivers are inside and outside, and the rivers are closed. Looking at the capital, I am hesitant and sad. Wherever I go, the palaces and palaces are all made of earth. When they prosper, the people suffer; when they die, the people suffer."
Li Chengfeng unconsciously remembered the eternally famous poem "Sheep on the Hillside. Tong Cares about the Ancients". At this time, he slightly changed it and sang it out in a low voice, which moved everyone around him.
No one here is a vulgar and reckless person, so they naturally know the power of words like this famous poem. If it is passed down and recited, Li Chengfeng will be famous all over the world just by relying on this poem, and will become famous among scholars and literati.
Han Tianxing repeatedly recited in a low voice: "In prosperity, the people suffer; in death, the people suffer." He couldn't help but burst into tears, and the blood in his chest boiled with the unique passion of a scholar.
The senior sister said calmly: "It's a famous article. If you don't become a monk, you can become famous all over the world as a scribe. However, Li Chengfeng will not pursue his own affairs unless he is in his position. Remember your identity, otherwise once you If you forget your identity, I’m afraid there will be no place for you between heaven and earth in the future!”
Li Chengfeng looked stern. He knew that these words sounded very unpleasant, but they were good words.
A person forgets his origins and his position. Once he makes a mistake, he can easily become a stranger inside and out. At that time, he will become a loner without anyone to speak to him.
Li Chengfeng bowed seriously and said: "Senior Sister taught you well, Junior Brother understands!"
Li Chengfeng and others waited patiently for the victims to cross the straight road before getting on the train and continuing their journey. But what he didn't know was that there was a face in the crowd. When he inadvertently looked back, But a glance passed by.
This face is extraordinarily delicate, delicate and cute. It is the Su Yuehan that Li Chengfeng has been dreaming about and can't find!
