Chapter 296 Not Appreciating
"Of course there are strange things, but I don't know what kind of things do you want to hear, young lady?" The waiter has seen many people and works in the inn, so he is very talkative.
"Just tell me
anything." "That's a lot. Our town is called Dongsheng Town. The sun rises from the sea every day and shines on our entire town. So when the weather is good, you two can get up early to watch the sunrise. This is the biggest wonder here."
"Brother Xiaoer, this is not what I want to hear. We are not here for fun." Feng Tianxing knew he had misunderstood when he heard what he said.
"Then what do you two want to hear?"
"For example, have you seen dragons in the past ten years? Isn't our country called the Water Dragon Country?" Feng Tianxing guided.
"Miss, you are such a joker. The dragon is a mythical beast, how could it come to the mortal world?
It can be said that even an old man who lives to his nineties has never seen one in his entire life.
Our country is called the Water Dragon Kingdom, and this name does have a history.
Legend has it that the founding monarch had a dream when he was naming the country. He dreamed of a giant dragon leaping up from the sea. Under the sun, its scales were shining and it was very beautiful.
And the dragon happens to be an aquatic mythical beast, so this name was given."
"Oh, so that's why."
"My two gentlemen, a very strange thing has happened here recently."
"What happened?" Yun Ranqing was also curious and took over the conversation and asked.
"Recently, the fishermen who went out to sea have caught a lot of fish, but in previous years, there were very few fish at this time. Now is the breeding season for fish, and the small fish have not grown up yet. Logically, there shouldn't be so many fish." The waiter also thought this was strange.
Feng Tianxing and the others just saw a lot of fish sellers on the street, but they didn't know the market conditions in the past, so they really couldn't tell.
But this matter didn't seem to be related to what she wanted to inquire about.
"Anything else strange?"
"Yes. Not long ago, two families in our town got married. These two families were very special. The groom's family was a pair of twin brothers, and the bride's family was twin sisters.
It was agreed that the elder sister would marry the elder brother, and the younger sister would marry the younger brother, but on the day of the wedding, the matchmaker somehow got the two sisters mixed up and sent them to the wrong bridal chamber."
Feng Tianxing was speechless for a while. This was indeed a strange thing, but it still had nothing to do with what she wanted to inquire about.
"Little Second Brother, I want to ask, has the weather been good in your area in the past few years?" Feng Tianxing still thought it would be better to guide directly. Otherwise, who knows what strange things this little second brother will say.
"Miss, you don't know that we live by the sea, and the most common thing we encounter is typhoons, which come several times every summer and autumn.
When encountering strong storms, fishermen who go out to sea and don't have time to return will die directly in the sea. I don't know how many people die every year.
On the shore, when a typhoon comes, many houses are blown down. Many crops are also blown down, causing heavy losses.
But this is a natural disaster, and no one can do anything about it."
When talking about this, the second brother's face became much heavier.
Feng Tianxing could only sympathize with this.
Feng Tianxing saw that he couldn't get anything out of the second brother, so he told him to do his own thing.
Then the two of them brought all the food into the space and enjoyed it together as a family.
The next day, Feng Tianxing and Yun Ranqing planned to rent a boat to go out to sea and take a look.
But when the two walked out of the room and went downstairs, Feng Tianxing suddenly stopped.
"Xing'er, what's wrong?" Yun Ranqing asked curiously.
"Brother Qing, I actually saw a number on everyone's forehead: fifteen." Feng Tianxing kept looking carefully at everyone's face.
"What does it mean?" Yun Ranqing didn't understand.
"Brother Qing, I have a skill that I may have forgotten to tell you.
I can see that every dying person has a number on his forehead.
As long as someone is going to die within half a month, there will be a number on his forehead, and the number means that he will die in a few days.
But now I see that everyone has a fifteen on his forehead. That means they only have half a month to live, but they are all healthy people, how can they all die on the same day?"
"What? Do I have it?" Yun Ranqing was shocked.
Feng Tianxing looked at him carefully: "There is no number on your forehead."
Yun Ranqing was relieved when he heard it.
"Who are you and I? How could we die?" Feng Tianxing said unhappily.
"Xing'er didn't have this ability in her previous life."
"Maybe it was acquired during my reincarnation." Feng Tianxing thought for a while and said.
"Maybe. Then it is very likely that there will be a great disaster here in half a month." Yun Ranqing analyzed.
"There is only this possibility, and it is the kind of disaster that breaks out suddenly." Feng Tianxing also agreed.
"Then what should we do about this? Since we have encountered it, let's help." Yun Ranqing suggested.
"Well, let's eat first, and then go outside to see which range of people will encounter the disaster. Then make plans."
The two asked the waiter to serve the food.
"Brother Xiaoer, besides the typhoon you mentioned yesterday, what other disasters have you encountered here?" Feng Tianxing asked while the waiter was serving the dishes.
It was the same young man from yesterday.
"Miss, there was a plague many years ago, and I haven't heard of anything else." Xiaoer was only fifteen or sixteen years old, and what he knew was what the elders said.
After the two of them had dinner, they left the town and let two horses out in a deserted corner.
They left the town and headed for several fishing villages outside the town.
That day, the two of them walked through six or seven villages along the coast, and Feng Tianxing saw that everyone had a fifteen on their forehead.
They walked a distance inland, and after walking about four or five miles, they saw that the people there had no numbers on their foreheads.
"Brother Qing, it's really strange. Only the villagers near the sea died, but not those inland within five miles. That means only the people near the sea were in trouble, so the disaster must have come from the sea. But a typhoon wouldn't kill everyone, so at least some people could have escaped." Feng Tianxing couldn't figure it out. "
Xing'er, if we want to save these people, we have to hurry. Now is not the time to think about these things." Yun Ranqing couldn't think of the reason for a moment.
"Okay, then shall we go find the village chiefs of each village?"
"Well, let's try first."
The two returned to the village closest to the sea, asked two children to find out the village chief's home, and asked them to lead the way.
"Hello, village chief." Feng Tianxing took the initiative to greet him.
The village chief was an old man in his fifties. He was obviously a fisherman who went out to sea all year round. His face was black and rough due to the sea breeze. He was very strong and prestigious.
The village chief Liu Daqiang felt very strange when he saw two well-dressed young men and women from wealthy families looking for him.
But he also generously let them in and asked his eldest daughter-in-law to serve two glasses of boiled water.
"I wonder what the two nobles want to talk to me about?"
"Uncle village chief, within half a month, this place will suffer a natural disaster, so we came to tell you that we hope you can organize the villagers to evacuate six miles away from the sea as soon as possible to avoid this disaster." Feng Tianxing directly stated the purpose of his visit.
But when Liu Daqiang heard it, his eyes became sharp.
"Girl, you can eat more, but don't talk nonsense."
Zhang Daqiang is an old man who has lived for decades and often goes out to sea to fish. He is very sensitive to the weather.
There will be no natural disasters at this time. It's not summer or autumn, when there are many typhoons. Now is late autumn, the best time of the year.
