This was Su Luo's guess. Although the Imperial Preceptor took good care of her in every way, he would not take the initiative to come to her unless there was something wrong.
Moreover, she came to Prince Yu's residence instead of being summoned to the palace.
"I do have something to discuss with you. It concerns the people of the capital, and it also concerns you."
Upon hearing that Nangong Chiyu was unharmed, Su Luo finally felt relieved. She invited the Imperial Advisor to sit down and talk, but he refused.
"Junior sister, come with me to a place. I'll explain this to you slowly once we get there. If you handle this matter well, it will also benefit Prince Yu."
"Okay! Let's go."
Su Luo didn't bring Su Zuo and Qiu Yue. She thought the Imperial Advisor would bring people from the palace, but he didn't bring any of them.
He rode his horse here, and now when they go out, they are both riding horses.
Su Luo didn't know where the Imperial Preceptor was taking her. After leaving the city, they walked towards a mountain. There was a small path on the mountain that carriages couldn't pass through, so they could only ride horses.
They soon reached the foot of the mountain, but the horse could no longer go up, so the two switched to walking up the mountain.
"Senior brother, is there something you must say in this desolate mountain?"
Su Luo was puzzled. This place was only two or three miles from the capital, yet it was a deserted mountain with no one around. What was the Imperial Advisor doing bringing her here?
The first thing that came to her mind was whose grave the Imperial Advisor wanted to bring her to, otherwise he wouldn't have come to this mountain.
"We're almost there, about half an incense stick's time."
The Imperial Advisor did not answer Su Luo's question directly, but continued walking ahead of her until the two stood on the mountaintop.
Along the way, Su Luo hadn't seen a single grave, so she knew that the Imperial Advisor's purpose wasn't to bring her here to sweep the tombs.
After resting for a while, Su Luo waited for the Imperial Advisor to speak.
“Junior sister, I brought you here today out of necessity. I did a divination, and the current drought in the capital can only be relieved by you. And you also need this salvation.”
What's the meaning?
Su Luo couldn't understand at all.
Seeing that Su Luo was still confused, the Imperial Advisor began to talk about some things.
“Junior sister, you should be able to tell that I practice divination, but the energy in my body is far inferior to that of my master.”
Perhaps in the eyes of the world, we are just those who pretend to be gods and ghosts, but some mysteries truly exist, only they are invisible to the eyes of the world.
Su Luo: "So? What exactly do you want to tell me, Senior Brother?"
The Imperial Advisor looked up, gazing into the distance, and after a long while spoke, "I want my junior sister to bring rain to the capital and the surrounding counties and prefectures."
If it doesn't rain now, most of the second crop of rice will not be able to be planted. The river has also dried up. Without the second crop of rice, Nanning will face a difficult situation where it is impossible to move forward.
He tried everything he could think of, and the only thing he could calculate was to have Su Luo bring rain to the capital, hoping to save as much as possible.
Although he didn't know what method Su Luo would use to make it rain, he figured it out, and he figured that Su Luo could do it.
He consulted the oracle many times, but the results were always the same, so it couldn't have been a mistake.
"Isn't my senior brother overestimating me?"
Su Luo looked into the distance just like him. The sky was azure and cloudless. How could she possibly send rain to the people of the capital?
"Tell me, can you make the sky rain?" the Imperial Advisor asked Su Luo earnestly and earnestly.
Su Luo's hand, hidden beneath her sleeve, moved thoughtfully. She had some artificial rainmaking equipment she had found in her spatial storage; she hadn't expected the Imperial Advisor to have foreseen this.
The capital city is suffering from drought, and most of her and Nangong Chiyu's estates are located in the capital. It is currently the time to plant the second crop of rice, and she has also considered using this equipment to artificially induce rain.
However, artificial rainmaking requires certain conditions, such as the density of water vapor in the air, the wind direction, and the presence of clouds in the sky.
Clouds contain a lot of water vapor, but they cannot fall down. Artificial rainmaking is needed to help them fall down smoothly.
"If conditions permit, we can..."
Su Luo didn't need to explain when speaking to the Imperial Advisor. If he calculated that he could do this, then he must have calculated what conditions were needed to do so.
“Alright! Junior sister, get ready. In half an hour, clouds will rise in the southeast direction, and strong winds will carry them out to sea. But the capital needs this rain more. Let’s intercept it and bring benefits to the people.”
The Imperial Advisor was well-versed in astronomy and geography; without weather forecasting, how could ordinary people know these things?
Su Luo nodded, focused her mind, and with a wave of her hand, an artificial rainmaking device appeared on the mountaintop.
It was made of metal and was larger than Su Luo's body. It would take at least half a day to carry something this big to the top of the mountain, but Su Luo made it out with just a wave of her hand.
The Grand Preceptor glanced at the equipment, showing little surprise. His expression was indifferent, devoid of any greed.
Su Luo dared to take this out of her spatial storage in front of him because she guessed that the Imperial Advisor must know that she had such a place.
He just couldn't see it or understand it. Now, seeing his calm and unperturbed demeanor, it proves that Su Luo's guess was correct.
The equipment still needed to be assembled. Su Luo squatted down and, while working on the equipment, asked the Grand Preceptor, who was still observing the sky.
"Senior brother, don't you want to ask where I got all these things from?"
The Imperial Advisor didn't even blink as he answered Su Luo, "Every disciple of the Master has their own strengths and unique skills. Just like my junior sister doesn't know how I glimpsed the secrets of heaven."
As long as it's good, there's no need to ask. What we have and what we know are different in nature, but if fellow disciples can get along harmoniously, that's excellent.
Su Luo really liked the Imperial Advisor's personality; he was a bit protective of his own and didn't like to ask too many questions. He was truly a good person.
“Senior brother, your love for the world far surpasses mine. I want to bring rain to the capital because almost all of my largest estates are located here.”
"And you have nothing, yet you still think of the people. I truly admire you. There aren't many people in the world as selfless as you."
Su Luo is generous. Even she herself feels that she cannot be as generous as the Imperial Advisor. Sometimes, if she is a little soft-hearted and kind, she will be called a saint by others.
Those who hurl insults seem unable to bear the beauty of the world. If it weren't for the law, they would always want to kill others. They are corrupt themselves and cannot bear to see any light in the world.
Su Luo's words made the Imperial Advisor's lips twitch, a half-smile playing on his lips.
"Actually, I also have selfish motives. I cultivate the Way of Heaven, and only by doing more good for the world can I accumulate merit."
Such is the way of Heaven, just as the most ordinary person cannot escape it. If you do something bad or hurt someone, you will have a kind of energy inside you. This energy will enter your body and will eventually erupt.
It's like a disease; sometimes you don't even feel it when it erupts. For example, if you get pricked by a needle, you wouldn't think it's retribution; you'd think it's nothing out of the ordinary.
