Chapter 295 Relief for Disaster Victims
Chapter 295 Relief for Disaster Victims
After all the officials of all ranks in Linchuan City gathered together, the sharp-eyed Chen Siren discovered that a few were absent and made a silent note of them.
Now is not the time to hold them accountable. We can wait until the disaster is over and then settle the accounts.
Led by Chen Siren, the officials followed Tian Xingjian out of the city.
The yamen runners of Linchuan Prefecture were responsible for organizing the people in the city, letting them eat porridge outside the city first, and then distributing relief food.
Smelling the long-lost fragrance of white rice porridge, even Chen Siren swallowed his saliva.
Tian Xingjian asked the officials to drink a bowl of porridge first, and then they had to start working.
Before the people arrived, each official was given a bowl of warm porridge, and after drinking it, they seemed to have regained their strength.
Then the people lined up at the city gate.
Seeing the people of Linchuan City lining up in an orderly manner with their bowls in hand, Tian Xingjian gave Chen Siren a big thumbs up.
Chen Siren scratched his hair embarrassedly, but how many hairs were there on his bald forehead for him to scratch?
Linchuan is a big city. Nine out of ten houses in the city are empty, but there are still many people queuing up to receive relief food.
The people drank the porridge first and then went to get rice.
The people of Linchuan like to eat rice, so this disaster relief was all rice.
This time, food was distributed per person, with each person receiving 20 kilograms of rice.
There was no harvest in the fields, all the vegetables had wilted and died, and many supplies in people’s homes disappeared.
When Tian Xingjian learned about this situation, he was also troubled. After thinking for a while, he decided that this place was relatively close to Shengjing, so he planned to go back to Shengjing to purchase supplies.
After instructing Tian Xiwen to assist Chen Siren in comforting the victims and distributing rice and grain, Tian Xingjian mounted his horse and returned to Shengjing.
He Han was surprised to see Tian Xingjian coming back so soon!
Shouldn't today be the day for the Emperor's wedding? Why is Lord Tian back?
Tian Xingjian explained that the emperor's wedding was cancelled, the Li family was executed for treason, and the future queen was also executed. Now he has a more urgent thing to do, so he asked He Han to assign him some people.
There was a drought in the south of the Yangtze River, and there was an urgent need for vegetables, salt, sugar, meat and other supplies. The garrison went to the market in groups of ten to buy them.
When the people of Shengjing learned that Tian Xingjian was providing disaster relief in Linchuan on the orders of the emperor, they spontaneously took out their surplus meat, vegetables, and eggs from their homes, and some even gave him silver.
Today, the people of Shengjing live a prosperous life, all thanks to Tian Xingjian's new policies and the opening of various workshops. They have nothing to eat or wear, and they are not short of money.
The people are the kindest group. If you are nice to them, they will be kind to you.
Tian Xingjian was very touched and accepted the people's kindness.
However, he separated the supplies sent by the people from those purchased by the court, and had people mark them. He would then convey the message truthfully to the people in the south of the Yangtze River. This was the friendship of the people of Shengjing.
Finally, Tian Xingjian had all the supplies transported out of the city. At night, he put all the things into a ring and took it to Linchuan.
Chen Siren was surprised. It would take four days to travel back and forth from Shengjing to Linchuan even if riding at full speed. How could Tian Xingjian return in just one day?
And he brought back so many things, but there was no soldier following him?
It’s incomprehensible, incomprehensible.
If it is difficult to understand, then don't understand it. No matter how big the doubt is, it cannot compare to the problem in front of you.
Early the next morning, Tian Xingjian and Chen Siren split into two groups and delivered supplies to the people door to door.
People's lives gradually returned to normal.
Tian Xiaoxiao and Daju were observing the entire Jiangnan area from above.
There are conditions for rain in the sky, but why doesn't it rain?
There is a layer of black gas in the air.
It seems that it is this layer of gas that prevents rain from forming and falling.
Besides, this layer of black air only exists in the sky above Jiangnan.
The two of them went to check the rivers, lakes and reservoirs under the jurisdiction of Jiangnan.
The water was drained!!
When the water from upstream flows in, it evaporates directly without leaving any trace of water.
"Qingchen, is there any magic weapon here?"
"Magic weapon?"
“And it’s buried deep underground.”
"Legend has it that there is a magic weapon that can absorb all the moisture in an area."
"Is it Shuishang?"
"I can't remember the name. That magic weapon is no longer in the Three Realms. There is no trace of it."
"Now it's here. Let's destroy it!"
"Can you find the exact location? It's a magic weapon, and its grade is the same as a divine weapon."
"Found it. It has been swimming around several fixed points."
"Should we call for help? Your physique cannot be corroded by magic weapons."
"Hmm? My physique?"
"Yes, you have Qinglan's divine aura, and your physique is purer. If you are corroded by a magic weapon, it may be difficult to recover. No one can save you if you are possessed by a demon."
"What should I do?"
"Looking for Qinglan."
"She is still accompanying Qing Yuan to look for that Xiao Mu, right?"
"Hey, if the man Qingyuan is talking about is Xiao Mu, considering Qinglan's love for her, she will definitely go and revive Xiao Mu."
"Willn't that mean there will be another fierce battle?"
"If Qinglan becomes soft-hearted and helps Qingyuan, what should we do?"
"Qinglan is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to weigh the pros and cons. I believe her. Although she dotes on Qingyuan, she also knows where her responsibilities lie."
"I hope so!"
"Qingchen, you will be responsible for luring out Shuishang later, and I will seal it."
"it is good!"
Tian Xiaoxiao and Daju arrived at the center of Jiangnan, a village called Lushui.
I think there must have been a pool of clear water in this village, but now, everything is dry and yellow.
Tian Xiaoxiao's divine bone has the ability to heal. She inserted the divine bone into the ground, and all things showed signs of recovering vitality, but were instantly drained of their vitality by Shui Shang again.
"Qingchen, this magic weapon is really vicious!"
"Yes! I thought it was destroyed, but I didn't expect it to be taken away by the demon world."
"Prepare to lure it out. I can seal it here."
"Okay! You must protect yourself!"
Daju used his own body as bait, and Shuishang popped up.
Shuishang is a basin-shaped magic weapon.
Tian Xiaoxiao transformed the divine bone into a larger basin, covering Shui Shang.
Shui Shang found himself in front of a dark place, struggling desperately to shrink, and his divine bone was also shrinking.
Until the end, the divine bone tightly covered the water sorrow.
Tian Xiaoxiao did not reach out to touch Shui Shang, but took out a box from Yiyou Palace.
There are many such boxes in Yiyou Palace, which were refined by Qinglan to imprison various magical weapons.
After packing Shui Shang, Tian Xiaoxiao did not let Shui Shang get close to her, but entered the painting and handed the box to Qinglan.
Qinglan was searching for Xiao Mu's presence in the painting.
When she saw the box that Tian Xiaoxiao brought, her face darkened. Why were the things she had made when she was young and ignorant still in the world?
Who pays so much attention to her?
Qinglan took the box, placed it in the palm of his hand, and Shuishang turned into ashes.
This time, no one can restore the sorrow of water.
Tian Xiaoxiao came out of the painting, flew into the air, and saw that the black gas had not dissipated yet.
The black air was absorbed by the divine bone, and the sky above Jiangnan returned to its original state.
After a while, it started to rain.
It’s just that the rivers and lakes that have dried up have not recovered so quickly.
There was a pair of eyes, full of smiles, laughing out a sinister voice: "Finally here!"
"Tian Xiaoxiao replied in mid-air: "Who is playing tricks? Do you dare to fight?"
No one answered.
The voice disappeared without a trace.
Tian Xiaoxiao hurried back to Tian Xingjian.
