Chapter 384: Praying for Rain

of course.

Shuiyun Mountain.

In front of the Xiliang Palace, just like before, countless clan elders and village leaders who came from all directions gathered.

Their goal was the same, which was to ask the King of Xiliang and the Queen of Xiliang to recruit the young men of their clan to fight in the battlefield.

The bravery of the Xiliang people has not diminished much due to the prosperity in recent years. On the contrary, they cherish this hard-earned peace even more.

And willing to give everything to protect this peace.

However, the Xiliang Palace had no plans to recruit soldiers. Originally, Xiliang had 500,000 elite soldiers. For this year’s war, another 100,000 elite soldiers were drawn from various tribes.

Don’t think this is a bad thing?
In order to compete for these 100,000 places, countless tribes, big and small, racked their brains.

Five hundred thousand troops were stationed outside Suizhou City, and one hundred thousand were left to guard the four states south of Xiliang.

As February approached, time passed day by day. By mid-February, the ice and snow in Yongzhou and Youzhou had begun to melt, and preparations for spring plowing began.

Next came Jizhou, Xiliang also began to cultivate the land, and finally Hexizhou and Juzizhou.

Late February.

The snow in the Northern Wei Dynasty also stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, a big sun rose into the sky, casting golden sunlight on the cold earth, and the snow in the Northern Wei Dynasty began to slowly melt.

North of Suizhou City, by the Sui River, a man in a green robe stood by the river, with his hands on his back, looking at the river in front of him that was more than a hundred feet wide.

The originally thick ice on the river bank has cracks, and the rushing water can be vaguely seen under the ice.

The Sui River runs through the two states, irrigating countless fields. The thick snow on both sides of the river turns into some icy water under the sunlight and flows into the river.

“Is the water level sufficient?”

Xiao Han spoke softly.

“Not even close.”

A woman walked out from behind, wrapped in a brown long skirt. She had a stunningly beautiful face, charming and cold. The long skirt was tightly attached to her body, outlining her perfect curves.

It was the Demon Sect’s number one expert, the Yinkui Sect’s leader, Nie Si Niang.

She said with her red lips: “Princess Mo has been leading her disciples to survey along the ancient river channel these days. If we want to flood Suizhou City, the water level of the Sui River must rise by at least another two meters.”

“Two feet.”

Xiao Han chuckled and said, “That’s almost the water level during the summer flood season.”

“Ah.”

Nie Si Niang nodded: “It is the dry season in spring now. Even if we block the downstream and dig through the river, it will not flood Suizhou City.”

“Only by taking the enemy by surprise can we defeat the enemy.”

He put his arms around the other person’s waist. Nie Si Niang did not struggle, but let the hand play with her.

“Do you have any idea?”

Nie Si Niang turned her head and looked at the man next to her with her beautiful eyes, with a hint of light in her eyes.

“Naturally there is.”

Xiao Han raised his eyebrows, “How to do it.”

“Pfft.”

The Demon Sect’s top expert couldn’t help but laugh out loud: “The King of Xiliang can also perform magic?”

“Of course it will.”

He withdrew his hand and chuckled, “Since the water level is not high, we can ask God for a heavy rain to increase the water level.”

Nie Si Niang showed a solemn expression on her face, “This is the killing karma of 200,000 people. If you borrow rain water from the Heavenly Dao, the cause and effect involved will be too great.”

“What are you afraid of?”

Xiao Han looked calm: “This king is using this rain to calm down the troubled times. The Northern Wei Dynasty has been at odds with the immortals in heaven and has long since deviated from the way of heaven. I am also clearing the way for heaven.”

“When will it be done?”

she asked.

“Tomorrow at 3:30 p.m.” Xiao Han replied: By then, with the help of the real dragon, we can call the wind and rain, stir up trouble, and destroy Suizhou City in one fell swoop.”

The deeper one’s martial arts cultivation reaches, the more mysterious and unfathomable it becomes. However, although it is known as the fairyland on earth.

But there are still many differences between them and the gods in real myths and legends.

At the same time, although entering the fairyland on land seems to have reached the pinnacle of the human world, one is actually still subject to the constraints of heaven.

For example, karma and divine punishment are particularly terrifying for those who practice the way of heaven.

Only when one’s strength reaches the limits of the human world can one ignore the suppression of heaven’s punishment.

Xiao Han was not afraid of divine punishment. With his strength, even if thousands of thunders were sent down from the sky, they would not hurt him at all.

Even if he wanted to, he could open the gate of heaven with just a thought and ascend from the earth in broad daylight.

But there are some things that even with his level of cultivation, he cannot do.

It is possible to move mountains and block rivers, but if you want to have a torrential rain for three days and three nights in the early spring,
It all depends on whether God gives us face.

Soon, a simple altar appeared beside Sui River. It was not very tall, about one foot square, with two levels. On the top level was a four-legged tripod and a low table.

Day two.

The weather is still sunny.

The sky was clear and cloudless, and a golden sun slowly rose from the horizon. The sparkling sunlight fell on the surface of Sui River, making the waves shimmer and dazzle people’s eyes.

Most of the ice on the river has melted, and the rushing water is rushing down from the upper reaches, hitting both sides of the river.

On the bluestone by the river, a man wrapped in a white robe sat cross-legged, his face not looking up at the sky, his eyes tightly closed. Wisps of purple air gathered from all directions, lingering around his body, slowly seeping into his body from various acupoints, and becoming pure original energy.

“Have something to eat.”

Nie Si Niang came from a distance, holding a food box in her hand, her brown long skirt fluttering, and she took every step ten feet.

Xiao Han woke up from his deep sleep and asked, “How is the river digging going?”

he asked.

“There are really only a few hundred feet left.”

Nie Si Niang said softly, “We can dig it through at any time.”

“Everything is ready, all that’s missing is a heavy rain.”

“I had someone make this for me. See if it suits you.”

She put the food box down, opened the lid, and took out the food and wine inside: a pot of stewed chicken with bamboo shoots, a pot of stewed pork feet, a plate of stir-fried beef, a pot of pickled fish, and a pot of wine.

“Where did you get this gossip?”

Xiao Han showed a look of surprise, picked up the bowl and chopsticks, took a bite, and found it very refreshing.

“cough cough”

“Miss Miaoyu said so. When we set out, she specifically told me about some wine and food that the prince was used to eating.”

Nie Si Niang looked calm.

“This girl.”

He pouted.

Nie Si Niang was watching nearby, leaning against a tree trunk with her arms folded across her chest, watching the man next to her wolfing down his food.

There is not a single trace of the airs and aura of a nobleman on the King of Xiliang. It must be said that this man is very charming.

“What do you keep looking at me for?”

Xiao Han said without raising his head.

“Who’s looking at you?”

Nie Si Niang turned her head and looked first at Suihe River, then raised her head and looked at the clear sky, without even a cloud in sight.

Although Xiao Han was extremely confident, Nie Si Niang was still a little worried. If she couldn’t pray for rain, although she could flood Suizhou City, she would not be able to wipe out the 200,000 elite troops of the Northern Wei in the city in one fell swoop.
