Chapter 118: Offering a Ceremony to Pray for Good Fortune
The dark clouds moved northward and never returned.
Gong Mengbi looked up at the sky and felt relieved when he could no longer see the dying black dragon.
The flood on the ground gradually receded, and one could often see demons, fairies, and gods riding the tide in the water, even Wang Xiang was among them.
Gong Mengbi was quite surprised when he saw this, but Wang Xiang greeted him and said, "E-nu and the Lord of Qiantang have issued an order to the spirits and gods in the water to retreat the flood."
"I am responsible for the area near Longpan Mountain. I will drive the floodwaters into the Wu River. The Dragon God will then drive them into the Qiantang River. The Qiantang Lord will then drive the floodwaters into the sea."
Only then did Gong Mengbi understand the whole story.
Wang Xiang spoke to him for a few words and then hurried off to do his work again.
Driving away floods and tides is not an easy task. In addition to gods, there are also demons in the water. If you meet one that is difficult to talk to, you have to fight it.
However, this matter is a decree from heaven, and no blind demon should dare to stop it.
The flood gradually receded, and the sun steamed the rotten mud and rotten soil, gradually producing a lot of bad smell.
It's better in the mountains because there are plants and trees to dissolve the air, but when you arrive in the countryside, communities and county towns, you can always smell the rotten and fishy smell in the air.
Foul air is rising and water sources are polluted.
Gong Mengbi warned Liu Sheng overnight and asked him to invite a doctor to discuss the important task of epidemic prevention after the flood.
Gong Mengbi himself first burned incense at Fox Hill to dispel the evil spirits.
Burning incense is Gong Mengbi's specialty. With the help of the art of looking at qi, he can use the fragrance to attack the evil air and dispel it.
It’s okay in Dapan Mountain, as it’s not a place where floods and silt accumulate. Fox Hill is also okay, after all, it’s at a higher altitude.
Therefore, fumigating it with fragrant herbs can prevent the generation of bad air and prevent the foxes from contracting serious diseases.
There are many foxes in Fox Hill now, and it would be difficult to deal with them if they got an epidemic.
After fumigating the entire Fox Courtyard, Gong Mengbi taught Kang Wen how to use herbal fumigation to drive away bad air and poisonous insects.
"If it's sunny today, you can pass on this method. If any foxes ask to leave, let them prepare themselves to prevent bad air and disease."
In fact, quite a number of foxes will not stay in Fox Hill for long. They have various entanglements in the human world and now they have to continue their previous relationships.
Some also wanted to go back and take care of their own caves. After all, although Fox Hill was nice, it was not their home.
The flood has just receded, people's livelihood is in decline, and the air is filled with foul air. It is actually not a good time to go down the mountain.
Some foxes are willing to wait, some are not, Gong Mengbi lets them do whatever they want.
Only the witch Ma had already gone down the mountain to make plans for Gong Mengbi.
However, the reason why Ma Shenpo hurried down the mountain was probably because she wanted to find those two evil villains.
When Ma Shenpo entered the county town, she was old and gasping for breath after every step. But with the magical power of the fox, she was able to overcome the difficulties.
But the more this happened, the more Ma the witch hated the two guys.
"Don't let me find you, or you'll be in trouble."
When Ma Shenpo entered the county town, she blended in with the refugees. There were so many refugees that it was impossible to recognize everyone.
She continued to work as a fortune teller and provide medical treatment for the refugees. The witch doctor and the shaman doctor were inseparable, and the fortune teller had to be proficient in certain medical skills and arrange the funeral for the deceased refugees.
People who died after a flood had to be buried as soon as possible. It was summer now, and if the bodies were left for too long, they would easily rot and cause epidemics.
When it comes to matters of life and death, other people cannot advise, but the words of a fortune teller are effective.
On the other side, Liu Sheng organized the situation and first arranged for an empty residence to isolate the patients, who were then treated with medicine by doctors.
He also contacted Zeng Fan and arranged for the refugees to sweep and clean up the area, and to use wild grass and fine grass to fumigate and repel insects and prevent diseases.
Liu Sheng managed the situation in a timely manner, and with the cooperation of Zeng Fan and Ma Shenpo, there was no major epidemic.
The witch Ma often chanted the name of the Goddess of Mount Tai and spread her good reputation among the refugees. Soon, the number of tablets of the Goddess of Mount Tai gradually increased.
Although the Goddess of Mount Tai is silent, she is extremely spiritual.
Although sacrifices may not manifest themselves, the spirits will be able to bless the body, often turning misfortune into good fortune and disaster into blessing.
Following Gong Mengbi's advice, the witch Ma said that the fox was a messenger of the Goddess of Mount Tai and was under the jurisdiction of the Goddess of Mount Tai.
Witch Ma only thought that Gong Mengbi was paving the way for summoning spirits, but she didn't know that Gong Mengbi was thinking further ahead.
It's no lie that the Taishan Goddess rules over all foxes. Once the tablets of the Taishan Goddess increase in number, foxes living among humans will have to consider how to act. If a fox demon harms someone, they can file a complaint before the tablet of the Taishan Goddess.
Liu Sheng arranged the epidemic prevention and relief matters in an orderly manner, and then disappeared without a trace the night before the court officials arrived.
He had already dismissed his old servants, packed up his household belongings, and followed Liang Ji to take refuge at Fox Hill.
The fox girl and Zeng Fan had the same idea, and they were both shocked when they met at Fox Hill.
"Why is it you?"
"Why are you here?"
Liu Sheng pointed at Zeng Fan and said, "Great! No wonder you didn't tell me how I asked you to take refuge. It turns out you're here with the fox fairy."
Zeng Fan looked at Liu Sheng and shook his head repeatedly: "I thought you, a gentleman, were going to follow the law and wait for your head to be chopped off."
Liu Sheng laughed and said, "I dare not die. My sister still needs to be taken care of. I cannot give away my useful body like this."
Zeng Fan chuckled: "Same, I have a lovely wife at home, I can't bear to leave her."
Liu Sheng laughed and said, "Brother Zeng is a sentimental man. I just wonder what happened to the people in Wuning County after we left."
Thinking of those poor refugees, Zeng Fan couldn't help but sigh.
The tragedy of the world today is that no one can be trusted. In the past, it was just the harsh government, but later, the county magistrate became corrupt and corrupt, bankrupting the court. The court could no longer be trusted, and now, even the gods cannot be trusted.
It was as if the world had suddenly become chaotic, and many things were different from before. Who knew what kind of official would be sent down from the court?
If he continues to be like the county magistrate, taking bribes, perverting justice and enriching himself, I am afraid the situation of these disaster victims will not be improved.
However, to their surprise, the official from the court was a man of practical work.
After coming down, since Liu Sheng could not be found, there was no way to investigate. So they had to execute the county magistrate first to serve as a warning to others and to calm the people.
