Chapter 314 Why don’t you go and help?
"Although it was late that day, I still followed my sister and brother-in-law and the crowd to the entrance of Prince Zhan's mansion and knelt down to pay my respects."
"Later, I heard from my sister that the flower was a miracle from the princess, and it only saved kind-hearted people. Those who usually committed crimes and oppressed the people would become even sicker after smelling the fragrance of the flower, let alone being cured."
"So, children, we must trust the princess. Since the princess said it is possible, then it must be possible. Your brother will definitely come back. Now we just need to prepare well and help rescue people later."
When the people around heard the woman's words, some of them nodded and said, "Yes, what Xiu'er said is right. Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, I have relatives in Kyoto who have also heard about the miracle."
"Yes, I've heard that too. I heard it from a traveling merchant, so it should be correct."
"You...look, look at the princess."
Everyone turned around and saw Bu Ruo throwing the umbrella in his hand aside and standing still in mid-air. The faint golden light around him blocked out the entire rainstorm.
"Princess...Princess is standing in the sky..."
Bu Ruo closed his eyes and looked at the gloomy sky. After a few breaths, he raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "That idle father ran away very quickly, leaving behind only a bunch of small shrimps."
"But it doesn't matter. It's all the same. Sooner or later, we'll all die."
When Bu Ruo opened his eyes again, lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the sky which was already gloomy and almost dark, making people terrified.
Just when everyone was nervous, a purple lightning bolt as thick as a hundred-year-old tree flashed across the sky and headed straight for a mountain outside Yicheng. With a loud bang... the whole earth shook.
Bu Bu, who had rushed over, stood in the awning, covering his ears, a trace of regret flashed in his eyes: "My mother struck them all to death, not a single one was left for Bu Bu. No matter how hard I tried, I still came too late."
"No, next time, Bubu has to tell mother in advance to leave a few for Bubu. The beautiful mother-in-law always asks us to attract lightning to strike trees, but it has never struck people, and there are so many people."
Bier didn't know what Bubu was talking about, but she knew that the princess must have killed someone. She hadn't killed anyone for a long time since she had a child.
Bu Ruo did not stop his movements. As the seals in his hands kept changing, an ancient chanting sound came from the horizon, which made people feel inexplicably calm in their hearts, as if they had been redeemed.
As the chanting sound grew louder, colorful rays of light slowly emerged from the thick dark clouds on the horizon. Where the rays of light appeared, the dark clouds instantly dispersed, as if they had seen their natural enemy and were unable to escape.
"Hey? Have you noticed? The rain seems to have subsided a bit, and the sky isn't as gloomy as before."
"It seems to be true. Although it is still raining, the raindrops do seem to be smaller than before."
"Look, the princess is so beautiful, just like a fairy."
"See, what did I say just now? The princess is a fairy..."
Just as the people were whispering, the soldiers by the river suddenly cried out, "Oh no! We can't hold on any longer."
It turned out that when the dam was being built, in order to prevent people from falling in, Xiao Yulan had people cut down a big tree, tied a rope to it, and threw it down, and tied the other side to the shore. This way, even if someone accidentally fell in, there would be a glimmer of hope. However, the rope had been soaked in water and suddenly suffered such a great impact that it now showed signs of breaking.
"Little Princess!"
Bu Bu watched as the soldiers who were still trying hard to pull the rope to pull up the big tree and the people who fell into it rushed to the river in an instant, so fast that even Bi'er couldn't stop them.
"Let Bu Bu do it~ Bu Bu, let go when you count to three, or you will fall down together."
"Little Princess..."
"Listen to Bubu. Bubu can stop the people in the river and buy time for mother."
Looking at the anxious little girl, Cen Nan could only give an order: "Listen to the little princess. If anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility."
"One, two, three...let go!"
As the soldiers loosened the ropes and made the seals step by step, a red net woven with divine power appeared in the river, stopping all the people who were about to be washed downstream.
Most of these soldiers and civilians could not swim. If they had not thrown down a large number of wooden boards and tied trees on both sides, they would have been washed away to who knows where.
Bu Bu was delighted when she saw the people caught in the net, and she tried to pull the net hard to rescue them, but no matter how hard she tried, the net didn't move at all.
Jin Congcong, who finally arrived, gasped and looked at Xiao Jin beside him and asked puzzledly: "Jin'er, why couldn't Bubu rescue them, and... why didn't you go to help?"
Xiao Jin stood behind Bu Bu in a protective manner without even glancing at him, but answered his questions sparingly.
"If it was possible to save them, why do you think Mother didn't save them first but stopped the rain first?"
"My sister needs exercise, I can just protect her."
Jin Congcong seemed to understand but also seemed not to understand. Looking at Bubu's struggling look, he felt very distressed: "Then let Bubu stay like this?"
Xiao Jin watched Bu Bu pulling at the divine power that was pulling the net and finally sighed: "Sister, fate cannot be violated. Everyone has their own destiny. After the rain, the sky will always clear up."
The prefect who came with them was already as shocked as the people around him and speechless at the scene in front of him. But when he heard Xiao Jin's words, he understood it before Jin Congcong.
Seeing someone frowning, he kindly went over to explain, "Little Divine Doctor Jin, the young master means that only if they have suffered the hardships they deserve, can they have the blessings they deserve in the future. A person's fate is predetermined by heaven and cannot be defied."
Jin Congcong blinked his eyes: "Huh? I didn't expect the prefect to be so knowledgeable."
The prefect scratched his head sheepishly. "It's not that I'm knowledgeable, but I have a wife who is devoted to Buddhism. After listening to her for decades, I naturally understand."
After hearing Xiao Jin's words, Bu Bu stopped exerting force and just kept using his divine power to maintain the net.
Bi'er was so anxious that she wanted to go over and help the little girl, but she didn't dare to touch her.
"Will Bubu's strength be exhausted if he does this today? If so, will it affect Bubu?"
Xiao Jin looked at Bi'er soothingly and shook his head: "It will dry up but it won't have any impact. If my sister dries up, I still have Jiner. Aunt Bi'er, don't worry."
"The divine power in my sister's body should have been exhausted long ago, but every time she was with the beautiful mother-in-law, she would slack off and never let the divine power run dry."
Jin Congcong was confused again: "Why must the divine power be exhausted?"
"Because only when the divine power is exhausted, will it become stronger when it is restored again."
"So how many times have you run out of energy today?"
"I don't know how many, but it's at least a hundred times."
Jin Congcong looked at Bubu's flushed face and suddenly an idea came to him...
