Chapter 185 Disaster in Kunzhou
During the Jing Dynasty and Rong Dynasty, Jiang He practiced Taoism and practiced magic while also studying swordsmanship.
Even if he did not continue to practice swordsmanship in the following two dynasties, his swordsmanship skills would not disappear in a vacuum.
Just like now, he picked up the sword again, and combined with his own talent, he soon brewed an extremely pure sword intention.
"A sword can be tangible or invisible."
"When the sword is refined, pure sword intent is developed, which can be integrated into many magical techniques...or, in other words, different magical techniques can be used as carriers to evolve sword intent."
"Paintings can be swords, sounds can be swords, iron, wood, stone leaves, wind, thunder, rain and snow can all be swords..."
"Nature will no longer be limited to the body."
"In this way, no matter what race I am, I can have universal and stable combat power and techniques."
After Ega discovered that the sword technique could work normally, he realized the meaning of the sword while practicing.
As long as he improves his swordsmanship, even if he starts over and turns back into a wolf cub, he can quickly gain a certain level of combat power and prevent future projection changes.
Solving the evil cultivator's sword and stone was a small test of his edge.
After getting satisfactory results, Jiang He was immersed in the comprehension of the sword's intention.
[The Qingzhou sect invited me and wanted to hold a banquet to thank you. 】
[After Gu Yuerong declined, he set off again to Bazhou. 】
[Luo Li year 3770, the eleventh day of the durian month. 】
[You followed Gu Yuerong to Kunzhou and encountered refugees fleeing. After questioning, you learned that there were monks fighting near Xucheng, which caused the river to surge, forming a huge flood, sweeping across the fields; and the cold air overflowed, freezing the floods and freezing them for hundreds of miles. 】
[Gu Yuerong rushed to Xucheng and was shocked to see the desolate life along the way. 】
[However, when he rushed to Xu City, he saw the monks fighting in the distance, but it was difficult to get close, and he was even unable to dissolve the ice. 】
[He had no choice but to go to unaffected towns, send letters to inform the sect officials, and purchase supplies to provide relief to the victims. 】
In a peaceful era where monks controlled the power of heaven and earth, it was rare to see ordinary natural disasters.
Even if there are no court gods, those sect forces will take the initiative to adjust the climate in the surrounding areas to ensure smooth weather and good harvests every year.
However, the destructive power of man-made disasters will also increase significantly.
Instead, they replaced many natural disasters and became the source of disaster.
Like now.
The two high-level monks suddenly started fighting for some unknown reason.
In this kind of life-and-death battle, they don't care at all whether innocent people are hurt, and the harm caused is no less than some natural disasters.
Neither Gu Yuerong nor Jiang He could do anything to stop this kind of disaster-level battle.
We can only help the people in surrounding villages and towns to evacuate as soon as possible before the battlefield moves over.
Or they can purchase supplies from afar and bring them to places where there are many victims to help with relief.
Next, we can only wait for nearby sects and officials to react and stop this battle.
"To stop the monks from fighting, we must have stronger power..."
"What if this battle is itself a battle between the head of a sect and the imperial state pastor? It would be very difficult to stop it..."
Jiang He brushed his fingers over the words, and the scene of devastation came into view.
This was the "peace and prosperity" of the Luo Dynasty.
At the same time, it is also a reflection of those ancient dynasties and even the legendary and mythological era.
When the gap between ordinary people and monks becomes wider and wider, life will become more and more fragile.
In those ancient times, immortals and gods could decide the life and death of hundreds of millions of creatures with a single thought.
Jiang He may not be able to change all this, but he won't just sit idly by.
[Gu Yuerong purchased supplies from neighboring states and transported them to the disaster area to provide relief to the victims. 】
[He has little experience, but he is helped by righteous people and provides relief in an orderly manner. He is busy but not chaotic. 】
[Of course, people are unpredictable. 】
[Despite the power of the monks, people with evil intentions dare not disrupt the relief work, nor do they dare to cheat and gain more. However, some people rely on their strength and gather in groups to rob others after the relief is given; or they ask others to accept the relief and hand over part of it. 】
[The person who was taken away was frightened and swallowed his anger. 】
[You noticed the clues and lured Gu Yuerong there. 】
[Gu Yuerong was originally doubtful, but when he saw this situation, he showed up and scolded him angrily. 】
The composition of the victims is quite complex.
Not only are there ordinary people, but there are also ruffians and bullies.
Perhaps they were all equally vulnerable to the natural disaster caused by the monks and became homeless refugees.
But when they escape to safety and receive relief, problems arise.
Those bullies who usually idle around have some thoughts——
Although Gu Yuerong was a monk, and they had seen the power of monks and did not dare to make mistakes, those who were weak became the targets of their oppression.
Not only did they rob the relief, they even asked others to hand over part of it to them after receiving the relief...
When Gu Yuerong saw this scene, he was angry and confused.
The cost of relieving the victims is only a drop in the bucket for her.
Even if the transportation is slow, she will try her best to ensure that every disaster victim can receive enough relief for themselves.
Why should we rob others when we already have enough?
the most important is.
Why would you rather swallow your anger than tell yourself that most of the relief money was taken away by those people?
Gu Yuerong appeared and yelled angrily.
After the ruffians panicked, they calmed down.
They told her with playful faces that they were from the same hometown and were just having fun, and then returned the supplies.
The victims who were robbed even nodded in agreement with their words.
Gu Yuerong saw the forced smiles on the victims' faces and understood the reason.
for these disaster victims.
It is true that she is a monk, but she is also a "good person" and a "good person".
She is kind-hearted, she can reason, she will abide by the laws of the court, she will not kill people at will...
Therefore, compared to her, these victims were more afraid of the ruffians and bullies around them, worried that telling the truth would lead to retaliation afterwards.
So, what is she going to do?
To punish? Turn a blind eye?
Gu Yuerong fell into silence.
There seemed to be eyes from all directions, waiting for her decision.
At this time, a white shadow jumped out from her shoulder.
The white shadow fell on the ground, and within three or two steps, it grew from a small white wolf as big as a palm to a giant white wolf with a shoulder height of 1.7 meters.
Being stared at by this giant white wolf.
The gangsters lost their composure and backed away with weak legs and trembling voices.
"F-Fairy, we are really from the same hometown... 伱, you can't let monsters eat us!"
"Help, help, the fairy is killing someone!"
Several bullies screamed in fear and tried to run away, but their movements suddenly stagnated.
But there was an invisible aura that instantly shattered their leg bones.
Screams filled the sky.
The white wolf remained indifferent.
It hooked the clothes of several bullies with its claws and dragged them near the city gate.
The victims who fled all lived in temporary shacks outside the city. Near the city gate was where Gu Yuerong helped the victims every day.
To facilitate queuing, a very high wooden flag was erected here.
Bai Lang jumped lightly and hung several bullies on the wooden flag. He also took a few healing pills from Gu Yuerong and threw them into their mouths.
They were hung on the top of the wooden flag and swallowed the elixir to replenish qi and blood, which made them strong.
From a high position, their screams, begging for mercy, and curses spread throughout the disaster-stricken area.
Hearing the screams, all the victims fell silent.
They watched the fairy walk all the way to the flag.
When the white wolf shrunk, it jumped back onto her shoulder.
She raised her head, looked at the screaming bullies, and said softly.
"Thanks."
Gu Yuerong had already thought it through.
These bullies must be punished severely, and killing them is not an exaggeration.
Punishing them is not for the cowardly people who were bullied, but to maintain the order of the entire disaster relief.
Once you handle it gently, other people will definitely become sneaky and try to imitate it.
At that time, all kinds of monsters and evil things will appear, and the entire disaster relief process will also change...
When majesty is wiped out and order is shattered, this is the real chaos.
Xiaobai knew this and seemed not to want to embarrass her, so he took action directly and killed her as a warning to others.
A feeling of warmth rose in her heart.
Others don't know what she thinks.
Some victims were relatively close. When they heard the word "thank you", they felt chills in their hearts and fear appeared in their eyes.
"She has been waiting to establish her authority for a long time, and even said thank you to these unlucky guys!"
…
In the city, there is a government office.
The city official was practicing calligraphy in his study when a government official knocked on the door and came in and reported everything that happened in the disaster area.
Finally, ask.
"Sir, what are we going to do?"
"How to do it?"
The city official put down his brush and smiled.
"Get ready. I want to visit Miss Gu personally to thank her for assisting the government in relieving the victims and maintaining order."
There was some appreciation in the city official's eyes.
Gu Yuerong spent his own money to help the victims outside the city. He only sent a few government officials to assist and didn't take any more care.
Now, I decided to visit in person instead.
"There are so many monks with family backgrounds."
"But he has a family background, he can uphold a kind heart, and he is not pedantic or indecisive... Such monks are likely to be extraordinary in the future, and they should make friends with them."
[You took action decisively, wounded those who disrupted the disaster relief, and hung them on the flagpole as a warning to others. 】
[Gu Yuerong has been providing disaster relief for many days. The victims and city residents knew that he was kind-hearted and a little young, so they felt strange. 】
[However, the person who was hung on the flagpole screamed until he became hoarse and died, but he seemed to turn a blind eye and went to help the victims under the flagpole. 】
[Everyone in Xiaoxiao was frightened and silent, and gave up their thoughts one after another. 】
[Since then, the relief work has gone smoothly, the victim area is in good order, and there has been no abnormality. 】
[Until news came that the monks who engaged in combat tactics in Kunzhou and caused the disaster were all arrested and brought to justice by the imperial court and sent to Dizhou for execution. 】
[The Kunzhou government sect sent out monks to repair towns and assist the victims in rebuilding their homes. 】
[Luo Li year 3770, the twenty-seventh day of the Lan month. 】
[Homes are rebuilt and victims disperse. 】
[You and Gu Yuerong say goodbye to everyone and hit the road again, heading to Bazhou. 】
The process of relieving the victims made Gu Yuerong grow a lot again.
This is not just reflected in the character of the mind.
During the few months of disaster relief, she worked hard by herself and was very busy every day. She even put aside the magic of piano sound and didn't practice much.
Many people were moved by such thoughtfulness.
When she was about to leave Kunzhou, nearby victims put down their newly built homes and came with their families to say goodbye.
These people who have almost nothing can only thank her for her help in the most simple way.
When she said goodbye to everyone, she walked away along the road.
Looking back, I saw that those people were still where they were, not moving even a step.
She waved her hand far away and turned back to the road, but she cried with joy.
She said to the white wolf on her shoulder.
"Xiao Bai, although there are evil cultivators with demonic hearts, there are also scum who bully others, and there are also those who would rather surrender to fear than believe in me..."
"But sure enough, there are more kind people in this world."
White Wolf still didn't answer.
But Gu Yuerong saw the corners of Bai Lang's mouth raised slightly, as if he was smiling.
That evening.
Gu Yuerong stopped on his way and took the opportunity to rest and try to pluck the strings.
She had obviously not played the piano for several months, but her fingertips were not unfamiliar at all...
To be precise, it turned out to be smoother.
She was immersed in the sound of the piano, seeming to incorporate more emotions and experiences. The notes were intertwined to form a new movement.
Among them are firmness, fierceness, and darkness...
But there is always a glimmer of hope.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Gu Yuerong opened his eyes again and spoke happily.
"Xiao Bai, I have a breakthrough!"
Qin Haizong's worldly training of hearts is not for romance and polishing emotions.
It’s about discovering your true heart and staying firm on your path.
Gu Yuerong has understood his true intention and determined his own path.
Even if the strength is still at the second level, the next few levels of practice will be smooth and there will be no bottlenecks.
She sensed this and wanted to share her joy, but the white wolf disappeared.
"Xiaobai! Xiaobai!"
She called loudly, but received no response, so she couldn't help but sigh.
"Probably when I was immersed in the wonderful music of the piano, I went to wander far away..."
"Is my playing so bad?"
Gu Yuerong didn't notice at all.
Right above her head, on a branch a few meters away.
A man in white clothes with white eyebrows and white hair sat on a branch with his legs crossed, raising his right hand as if observing his fingers.
Just a moment passed, and he sighed.
Then, he touched the snow-white wolf tail on his back.
"Breaking through the third level, I finally turned back into human form."
"It's this tail, why can't it be taken back?"
"No wonder Xiangyu never takes back her tail. It seems that only by reaching the fourth level can you fully possess a human body..."
"By the way, what's my name..."
"How about... Gu Bai?"
The man in white moved and turned into a little white wolf again, falling downwards.
The third level is just the beginning. As a big family, you can stay a little longer and think about how to give back to investors.
Gu Yuerong's surprised voice sounded.
"Xiaobai, you're back!"
…
Kunzhou is not far away from Bazhou.
Eager to get closer to his hometown, and since he had already made a breakthrough, Gu Yuerong didn't stop much along the way and accelerated his way home.
Just one week later, the two of them arrived in Bazhou and came to the Gu family.
"Dad, I'm back!"
