Du Changsheng was still planning to chase after him, but Ji Yuan's voice had already appeared in his and Yin Zhaoxian's ears.
"Master Yin, Master Du, if you are here to deal with the Queen's flood, please stay. I guarantee that there will be no flood."
'Mr. Ji?'
Du Changsheng and Yin Zhaoxian were delighted. The former stopped the spiritual wind and looked to the side together with Yin Zhaoxian. Ji Yuan was slowly descending on a magic cloud.
Seeing Ji Yuan appear, the old dragon and the dragon mother, who had just reconciled, also appeared and slowly landed.
"Meet Mr. Ji!"
Du Changsheng hurriedly and respectfully saluted Ji Yuan. Yin Zhaoxian also showed joy on his face and bowed to Ji Yuan a little slower.
"Mr. Ji, long time no see!"
Originally, Ji Yuan also planned to meet Yin Zhaoxian after the matter of the Dragon Girl was resolved. After all, in a few months, nearly ten million people would come to Dazhen, which was equivalent to adding tens of millions of disaster victims to Dazhen out of thin air. Not to mention accommodation, food was a big problem. Even if officials were sent to count the population, it would still be chaotic for a while. It was not something that could be solved easily.
But now that Ji Yuan had already met him, he greeted him first. When Ji Yuan came closer, he bowed in return and spoke.
"Master Yin, Master Du, it's been a long time since we last met!"
The old dragon and the dragon mother were also nearby at this moment. Yin Zhaoxian knew the old dragon and saluted him as well.
"Mr. Ying, this must be Mrs. Ying."
Although the age gap between them is quite large, Yin Zhaoxian still has some vision.
"Master Yin, it's been a long time since we last met. This is my wife Miao Li."
Thinking back to the time in the Ju'an Pavilion, Old Long got Yin Zhaoxian drunk with a cup of ambergris. At that time, he was still a scholar with black hair. Now he is a great scholar with white hair, and he has no shortage of fame, wealth and power.
"Master Yin."
The Dragon Mother also bowed to Yin Zhaoxian. Even if there was no relationship between Old Dragon and Ji Yuan, a scholar like Yin Zhaoxian was worthy of respect.
"Greetings to the two seniors. I am Du Changsheng, the state teacher of Dazhen."
Du Changsheng was respectful and enthusiastic towards the old dragon and the dragon mother. The old dragon did not ignore him directly. After all, the great fortune of Dazhen was there, and Du Changsheng, as the national teacher, still had some merits.
"Yes, Master Du."
The old dragon bowed in response, and the dragon mother nodded. This already made Du Changsheng secretly happy. Even though he wanted to remain serious, a smile appeared on his face involuntarily. The person named Ying appeared here at this moment, and was familiar with Mr. Ji? It was easy to guess who it was.
"We are here at His Majesty's command to go and talk to Madam Ying about the fire. But from what Mr. Ji said just now, it should be no big deal."
"That's right. Master Yin and Master Du can go report to the emperor first. If Madam Ying dies, Ji and Mr. Ying will follow her throughout the whole process. But there is one thing I hope Dazhen can prepare for early."
"What is it?"
Yin Zhaoxian asked a question, and Ji Yuan came closer and gave a general description of the affairs of the Human-Animal Country. He didn't explain it in detail, but it was enough to give a general idea. Everyone present was smart and it was not difficult to understand.
"Ten million people? Really?"
Yin Zhaoxian and Du Changsheng were both shocked. How many people are there in the whole Dazhen? More than 10% of the total number came directly here.
"Is it true? Of course, if Dazhen really can't handle such a large population, that's another matter."
Yin Zhaoxian nodded.
"Now that Dazhen is so large, a considerable number of people have been migrated to the original Yue land. It is a time when people are needed. As long as the overall planning is done properly, it should not be a problem. There is also enough food to consume. As long as the next season's food is available, it will not be a problem to arrange for them to cultivate good farmland. Yin will handle it properly."
Master Yin said there was no problem, so there was definitely no problem. Ji Yuan spoke to the two of them for a few more words before leaving with the old dragon and the dragon mother. They still had to follow the dragon girl to complete the entire water escape. The sound of thunder in the distance became more intense, and it was obvious that the second wave of thunder had arrived.
Du Changsheng withdrew his gaze only after seeing Ji Yuan and the other two leaving on a cloud. However, when he looked at Yin Zhaoxian beside him, he saw that the other party had a frown on his face and was lost in thought. It was obvious that he was already considering how to accommodate the incoming population.
After a long time, Yin Zhaoxian raised his head and looked at Du Changsheng.
"National Master, please return to the capital."
"good."
Du Changsheng responded and then took Yin Zhaoxian back.
After returning to the imperial city, the morning court in the palace had not yet ended. The two pieces of news brought back by Yin Zhaoxian and Du Changsheng really shocked the court and the public. During the morning court alone, the emperor issued a relevant imperial edict, and not long after the morning court ended, one decree after another was issued through officials from various places.
In addition to the many messenger officials who left the capital at full speed, there were also monks from the Heavenly Master's office who cast spells to convey messages, or went to various places in person or used treasures and magic to convey messages.
For a time, all relevant areas in Dazhen were operating vigorously, which was no less than a war mobilization. The entire bureaucratic system of Dazhen was operating at full capacity from top to bottom.
The strategy adopted by the Dazhen court was to announce all the true information to the world, except for retaining some content, so as to prevent officials and people from being alarmed.
Since Yin Zhaoxian came to power, thousands of talents who have been trained for the Dazhen officialdom, especially the middle and low-level officialdom in various places over the past few decades, have shown their talents at this moment, and countless talented and ambitious young people have seen the opportunity.
…
In the Tongtian River Basin, the Dragon Girl's true form, Chijiao, was dragging increasingly heavy pressure and withstanding the occasional thunder disasters, moving forward without haste. The aquatic creatures along the way either avoided her or worshipped her from afar in a relatively safe area.
There is no inner demon and no external demon. There is no invasion by demons and no interference by ghosts, gods, immortals or Buddhas. With the right time, place and people, the pressure and pain on the body are nothing to the dragon girl. This pain is the pain of rebirth and the pain of transformation.
More than ten days later, in the Chijiao runoff area, the water level of Tongtian River had risen a full hundred feet above the shore, and presented a strange feeling of top-heavyness. The further up one went, the wider the water became, while the water below was always confined near the original bank.
If someone is brave enough and dares to get close to the Tongtian River during a storm, he or she may be able to see the magical sight of the vast water forming a roof above their heads, stretching for dozens of miles.
After more than ten days of traveling by water, the dragon girl's Chijiao was covered with scars, with few scales intact and bleeding from torn wounds. After the Chijiao passed by, the aquatic creatures along the way would frantically search for any trace of dragon blood that might be left.
Even in this situation, the Dragon Girl still kept all the river waves under control. She wanted to drag all the waves towards the sea. After experiencing the pain of being tortured to death, the beautiful and crystal clear dragon eyes of Chijiao finally saw the estuary of Tongtian River and the endless blue sea in the distance.
“Roar——”
At the moment the Chijiao entered the sea, a loud dragon roar came out of its mouth. The sound shook the heaven and earth and spread far and wide and lingered for a long time. Endless waves also rushed into the sea along with the Chijiao.
In the sky, the old dragon, the dragon mother, Ji Yuan, and the dragon son Ying Feng who caught up later, all finally breathed a sigh of relief at this moment and were truly put at ease. Watching Chi Jiao leading Hong Tao deep into the sea, Ji Yuan was the first to thank the old dragon and the dragon mother.
"Congratulations to Mr. Ying and Mrs. Ying for having a daughter who is a real dragon. If Li succeeds in this water escape, then the next step is to transform into a dragon!"
“Thank you, Mr. Ji!” “Hahahahahahaha, congratulations!”
The old Long couple were of course delighted, and Ying Feng was of course also very happy, but while smiling, he couldn't help but secretly encourage himself, believing that he would surely be successful in the future.
…
The historian of Dazhen wrote: In the autumn of the year of Guichou, a land ship came across the sea from heaven, carrying tens of millions of people...
At this moment, the historian picked up his pen to write in his official residence. The pen dipped in ink seemed to be shaking slightly due to excitement, but when he wrote, it was still so steady that the force of his words penetrated the paper.
Lu Zhou was much smaller than when he crossed the sea from Heihuang. The old beggar stood above Lu Zhou, looking at the Dazhen land in the distance. Standing next to him were his two disciples Yang Zong and Lu Xiaoyou. The former looked at the Dazhen land with emotion.
"Yang Zong, the matter of discussing with the Dazhen court is now in your hands."
"Yes, Master! Brother, do you want to go with me?"
"Great, there must be delicious food in the palace!"
Lu Xiaoyou simply agreed, and then flew to the capital of Dazhen with Yang Zong. The Dazhen court, which had already made preparations, soon welcomed the two sea-crossing immortals into the palace with grand ceremony. The emperor led all the civil and military officials in the Golden Palace waiting for the arrival of the immortals.
"The Immortal of Qianyuan Sect enters the hall~~~~"
The eunuch summoned them with a loud and energetic announcement, and Yang Zong and Lu Xiaoyou entered the Golden Palace together. All the ministers and the emperor focused their attention on the two of them. Yang Zong seemed a little dazed and didn't even notice the greetings from the court officials and the reigning emperor.
“Junior brother, junior brother!”
"Ah? Oh!"
Yang Zong, who had regained consciousness, quickly followed his senior brother in bowing to the emperor.
"The monk of Qianyuan Sect greets His Majesty!" "Lu Xiaoyou of Qianyuan Sect greets His Majesty!"
"No need to be polite, Immortals!"
Yang Zong did not give his name, but only called himself a cultivator of Qianyuan Sect. Naturally, the emperor would not care about these details.
Yang Zong was not in a hurry to talk about the matter, but looked at the person on the dragon throne carefully.
"It turned out to be Sheng'er. He seemed to be unable to walk steadily when I left..."
His eyes swept across the civil and military officials on both sides, and there were not many familiar figures among the officials in the court. Except for a moment of staring at Yan Chang, his final gaze fell on Yin Zhaoxian.
The country remains the same, but few people know it.
Looking at Yin Zhaoxian's old but upright figure, Yang Zong's heart was filled with relief. He could now clearly feel the bright and righteous spirit, and he understood even more what a great power this was.
