Yu Ranxiang was completely stunned by her words, and the drumstick in her hand tapped it a third time almost according to the inertia.
A short thud sounded, and the master of ceremonies on the side shouted loudly, "Three drums to sacrifice to the people, may the whole world be safe in Xiangcheng!"
After he finished speaking, he held his breath and shouted, "Open the floodgates!!"
"Boom—" There seemed to be a slight movement from far to near, and soon, with a burst of galloping sound, the earth trembled slightly, making everyone's hearts lift up!
The canals in Xiangcheng are dug in sections, from the Heishui River in the north to Liuyue Lake in the center of the city, and then from Liuyue Lake to the Wanjiang River in the south. There are seven sections in the middle, and the sections are separated by sections. The open earth barrier needs to be washed away by the water after the gate is opened. If it cannot be washed away, it will be very unlucky, so everyone is a little nervous.
As the rumbling sound got closer and closer, a person standing on a high place suddenly shouted, "Here comes the water!"
His voice just fell, and after a while, a turbid water stream mixed with sand and sand rushed in!
It was majestic, carrying ten thousand force in the rolling, and then in the cheers of the crowd, it broke down one after another dirt barrier!
Xie Linlang stood on the stage, watching the water go straight through the canal and pour into the lake, a satisfied smile appeared on her face.
But Yu Ranxiang stood beside her and witnessed the grand scene of the cheers of the people in front of her, but what Xie Linlang just said echoed in her mind.
She said, "May you die with water in your rebirth, and a new life with water. You have to believe that water can purify the sky and purify you."
Now the water has come, and it is inexorable and irreversible. Could it be that her new life has also come? Is her past really washed away like this sand
The drumstick in her hand fell on the stage, but her heart was beating very fast!
Is she still alive? Can she really let go of the past
Can the rolling water from heaven really wash her away? !
Just when she was suspicious, uncertain, shaken, and looking forward to it, Liu Yuehu, which was originally dead, suddenly "boiled"!
Because of the continuous influx of external water, the entire lake surface began to come alive. The two water colors were distinct, and a lot of air bubbles were stirred up when turning, so it really looked like the water was boiling!
At the same time, a stench hit, and the water level in the lake was getting higher and higher!
Seeing this, Master Gao, who was standing at the mouth of the lake, quickly waved his arms and smashed the second sluice with a long hammer!
Just hear a muffled sound! The water in the lake seems to have found a vent, rushing out from another canal, pouring thousands of miles!
The turbid sewage broke through several soil barriers one after another, causing everyone to wave their arms!
Because it was necessary to make sure that the water could break through all the soil barriers, everyone ran after the water, and even a few well-respected old masters on the stage joined in the fun.
Xie Linlang didn't move, she stood beside Yu Ranxiang and pointed to Liu Yuehu Road in front of her.
"Miss Yu may not know, this Liuyue Lake was very beautiful before. When the crescent moon at night is reflected on the lake, it seems that there is a goddess with eyebrows like Liuyue hiding in it, and this lake is named after it.
But later, the magistrate of Tao came and forced the people of the city to help him mine and refine tin. The waste and waste water from the training were also dumped into the lake, so it didn't take long for the fish and shrimp in the lake to die. The lake water also became turbid day by day, and finally exuded a stench, which made people want to avoid it from afar... But is this lake always like this? "
When Xie Linlang said this, she turned around and looked at Yu Ranxiang seriously. She was still wearing a hat. As Xie Linlang ran around with her during this time, everyone was used to her dressing up like this, but Xie Linlang was used to her dress. When Linlang looked at her at this time, she seemed to be able to see her eyes through the pitch-black veil!
"...The quickest way to make the lake water look like it was before is to channel the stagnant water into living water, but this step is a huge transformation. For Liuyue Lake, it's tantamount to scraping bones for healing!
But you see, after the stinky stagnant water is washed away, it's still beautiful.
And after this hard-bone polishing, it is more beautiful and more powerful than before. It is not easy for anyone who wants to pollute it now, because she has obtained a steady stream of power, which comes from heaven and earth, From manpower, but also from oneself. "
Yu Ranxiang was shocked!
She looked at Xie Linlang with red eyes, and suddenly wanted to tear off the veil to see her appearance, her eyes, and how she felt when she said this!
She asked in a trembling voice, "After Liuyue Lake scrapes the bones for healing, its power comes from heaven and earth, from man, from itself, and I... Where does my power come from?"
Xie Linlang smiled when she heard the words, and then she took off Yu Ranxiang's cap as soon as she stretched out her hand.
The black veil fell to the ground, and the sudden sunlight fell on her thin cheeks, but she didn't care, a pair of terrifyingly large eyes were staring at Xie Linlang!
Xie Linlang didn't dodge either, she saw a smile in her eyes, and said intently and seriously.
"If your belief is strong enough, then the power will come from your heart. If you still can't be strong, then this power will be given to you."
She said, her tone encouraging.
"Just say what you want to do in the future? If you want to be a rich woman on your own, I will let someone teach you how to do business and let you be my right-hand man.
If you want peace for the rest of your life, get married and have children, I will recruit a son-in-law for you all over the city until you find a husband who is yours.
You see, no matter whether you are advancing or retreating, you can have a completely different sky. In this case, why do you hold on to the stagnant past
Can't I make you feel safe when I'm here? "
Her words made Yu Ranxiang stunned! Soon, she laughed in a low voice... Then the laughter grew louder and sadder... The next second, she suddenly hugged Xie Linlang hard! Hold her tightly!
Xie Linlang was startled and quickly raised her hands! All the people in the audience would have run away, otherwise, wouldn't she have smeared the innocence of other girls in vain
Seeing her like this, Yu Ranxiang buried her head on her shoulder and said with a sullen smile.
"Actually, I know that you have been enlightening me all this time, and I know that you are trying to get me out of the predicament, and I know that you are worried that I like you, but you know? I don't actually like you... "
"Ah?" Xie Linlang was shocked, what? ? She doesn't like her? ! !
So she's guiding her intentionally or unintentionally these days, isn't she being self-indulgent? And what's the matter with a little gap in the heart
After Yu Ranxiang finished speaking, she took a step back and saw Xie Linlang looking at her with a bewildered expression, she couldn't help laughing again, but her tone was very serious.
"My feelings for you are not admiration, but reverence! From the moment you picked me up from the carriage, from the moment you enlightened me, accompanies me to relax, and gave me gifts, from the moment you stood on the city wall and conquered thousands of troops, I love you There is nothing to add to your reverence!
I didn't dare to say it before because I didn't deserve it, but now, I want to say, if you are the devil, I would like to be your believer! If you are the Lord of the Sun, I would like to turn into a Golden Crow!
You are Xiangcheng's belief, and also my belief. It is not the water of Shangshan that makes me reborn, but you, just you! "
As she spoke, she leaned closer and whispered in Xie Linlang's ear.
"Xie Linlang, thank you."
Xie Linlang's heart skipped a beat, and before she could say anything, she suddenly heard a scream!
"Son! What are you doing?!"
Xie Linlang turned her head and saw Xiaoxi looking at them in shock, and beside Xiaoxi, stood Qin Jue with an extremely terrifying face.
No wonder Xiaoxi would be so excited, because from their point of view, Yu Ranxiang just seemed to be kissing Linlang!
