Walking from the city gate to the prefectural government office, many of the houses along the road were cracked due to dryness.
And the common people all had chapped lips and hoarse voices.
Xiao Yunzhan frowned, even though Lin Yiran had left water and food for Pingliang City.
The situation in other cities is probably even more serious.
Xiao Yunzhan raised his eyelids and looked at Lin Yiran, feeling a little worried.
Rainfall is a big project that consumes a lot of energy. Lin Yiran's body...
Although Ranran told him that she could hold on when she came, he still couldn't help but worry...
He Dongning rubbed his hands and smiled.
"The Taoist priests who went to Shuitian City before are not feeling well after praying for rain. Only three of them are in good health and have come with us to Pingliang City."
"Plus, I have more than ten Taoist priests here. These ten Taoist priests are not as powerful as the ones who went last time, but if there are enough people, we can give it a try..."
"As long as we show our sincerity, the God King will surely send down a blessing..."
If it weren't for the severe drought in Pingliang City, he would actually be willing to wait.
Last time, the nine Taoist priests invited dark clouds and asked the God King to send down rain. Of course, it would be more appropriate to use the original team.
However, six of the nine Taoist priests were still recovering from their illness, and he couldn't just drag them over without caring about their lives.
Xiao Yunzhan frowned slightly and tapped the table lightly with his fingers.
All we need to do is invite dark clouds and create the conditions for artificial rainfall.
These three Taoist priests were the ones who persisted to the end last time, and they are considered to be quite capable.
"Pingliang City doesn't have a large enough parade ground to accommodate the entire city's population praying for rain together, but praying for rain is a major undertaking. Only when the entire city is united and prays sincerely will a rain fall..."
The total population of Pingliang City is more than that of Shuitian City.
After all, the refugees' families were settled in Pingliang City, so the number naturally increased.
There are about four or five hundred thousand people living in Pingliang City, and the number is increasing every day.
"What should we do?" He Dongning looked at Xiao Yunzhan anxiously.
There are so many people in the city, where can he find such a large venue?
unless------
"How about going outside the city to pray for rain?"
He Dongning looked at Xiao Yunzhan hesitantly and asked.
If we go outside the city to pray for rain, the rain will fall between Shuitian City and Pingliang City. What will we do then?
Pingliang City is vast and has a large population. It is not good for the rain to fall outside.
Xiao Yunzhan was slightly stunned and quickly glanced at Lin Yiran.
Lin Yiran lowered her eyes and thought for a moment.
Hundreds of thousands of people went outside the city to pray for rain, which could easily cause a stampede.
Pingliang City is almost entirely populated by civilians, and their sense of order is not that good. Unlike Shuitian City, where soldiers make up the majority of the population, there will not be any crowding or trampling.
Praying for rain is a good thing, but if there are casualties, it would have a bad meaning.
"It's not very convenient outside the city. There are too many people and accidents are likely to happen."
As soon as Lin Yiran opened her mouth, everyone turned to look at her.
Xiao Yunzhan pressed the issue, "Then do you have any good ideas?"
Since Ranran has spoken, she must have thought of a solution.
"General Long, please tell me if you have any instructions." He Dongning looked at Lin Yiran expectantly.
Lin Yiran glanced at everyone and continued,
"We can build a 10-meter-high altar for praying for rain in the center of Pingliang City."
(1 zhang = 3. meters)
“Citizens throughout the city only need to walk a little closer to the city center and kneel in their own courtyards or streets to see the altar.”
"20,000 Heavenly Gods concentrated in the city center can also maintain order and prevent stampedes."
"What do you think?"
After Lin Yiran finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Yunzhan and He Dongning.
Xiao Yunzhan nodded, "That's a good idea, but 10 zhang high is a bit difficult to build. 9 zhang high will be enough, and it will all come together!"
He Dongning listened to the first half of Xiao Yunzhan's sentence and nodded repeatedly. 10 feet was indeed a bit difficult.
When he heard Jiu Zhang's words from Xiao Yunzhan's mouth, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch twice.
Nine zhang is not much shorter than ten zhang.
Lin Yiran looked at He Dongning and asked, "How long will it take to build the nine-foot altar for praying for rain?"
"If it's going to be able to support nine Taoists casting spells on it, it needs to be sturdy."
He Dongning frowned and thought carefully, wondering if the wood in the warehouse was enough for construction.
After a moment, He Dongning gritted his teeth and looked at Xiao Yunzhan firmly.
"It can be set up tomorrow morning, and we can choose an auspicious time tomorrow morning to pray for rain."
If we find all the carpenters in the city and start working on it now and add a whole night to it, there will definitely be no problem.
"I will go find someone to build a rain-praying altar right now."
He Dongning didn't dare to waste time, so he immediately stood up and walked out.
After Xiao Yunzhan watched He Dongning leave, he immediately urged Lin Yiran to go and rest.
After such a long journey, he still asked for rain the next day. He was really worried about Lin Yiran's health.
........
“Ding ding ding…”
Lin Yiran, who slept from noon to midnight, suddenly heard a rapid alarm in her head.
Lin Yiran, who was just about to get up to make some midnight snack, opened her eyes instantly.
It must be the eldest brother again. Only the eldest brother would get into trouble in the middle of the night.
The last time my brother was drugged, he has been silent ever since, and I know what happened.
Lin Yiran quickly clicked on the green bubble and looked directly at her brother's avatar.
As a result, the eldest brother's portrait remained motionless, and the exposed teeth still shone with a cold light.
"Second brother!?"
Lin Yiran saw the profile picture of her second brother Xiao Yunyou, which was flashing violently.
The originally gray avatar seemed to have some light at this time.
Lin Yiran took a closer look.
It turned out to be the second brother's hand that was folded across his chest, with a cunning light flashing on his thumb.
Lin Yiran looked at her second brother whose profile picture was so inconspicuous, and the corners of her mouth twitched twice.
The Xiao family is a family of father and son, and their portraits are all bright and very unique.
