At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne
Chapter 385 Borrowing Rain
Chapter 385 Borrowing Rain
“I hope it can happen.”
She withdrew her gaze and said secretly in her heart.
If he had agreed to form an alliance with Xiao Han and lead the Demon Sect into Xiliang, it would have been for the future of the Demon Sect and also to counter the Buddhist Sect.
But after so many years, Nie Si Niang’s original intention has changed a little.
She vaguely felt that it might be more interesting to pacify this chaotic world with this man between them.
The Demon Sect is not a demon, nor is it a simple distinction between good and evil in the world.
The birth of the Demon Sect can be traced back to ancient times, and it has a close relationship with the Mohist school among the many schools of thought at that time.
It can even be said that the Demon Sect is a branch of the Mohist School, although over the years, the Demon Sect and a branch of the Mohist School have had contacts.
However, very few people know about this relationship. After all, it would take hundreds or even thousands of years to trace it back.
After all, it was the pre-Qin period, the glorious era of various schools of thought.
So, although Nie Si Niang and her group are from the Demon Sect, they are not the same as the real demons. This demon is more of a classification of those people in the martial arts world.
If they could follow Xiao Han and pacify the troubled times, it is possible that the Demon Sect would be able to completely turn things around.
It can overwhelm the current Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and at worst it can wash away the previous reputation.
After eating and drinking, Xiao Han wiped his mouth, poured a glass of wine and drank it slowly.
“It seems that you are in a hurry.”
He joked.
“Why am I in a hurry?”
Nie Si Niang rolled her eyes and said, “His Royal Highness the King of Xiliang is not in a hurry, so why should I be in a hurry as I am just a woman?”
“It’s okay if you don’t rush.”
Xiao Han grinned, drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and then snapped his fingers. The next moment, the Sui River in front of him surged and created huge waves.
Then a huge black shadow slowly emerged from the bottom of the water. The black shadow rushed out of the water, revealing a ferocious dragon head. It was the real dragon that was captive in the Guanyu Lake of Shuiyun Mountain.
It opened its eyes wide, with little blood in its pupils, and even a hint of human emotion was revealed.
He groaned softly to the white-robed man sitting by the river, and immediately countless fish and shrimps in the river trembled.
Although it can hide its dragon power, a real dragon is still a real dragon. Even if it only leaks a little bit of its majesty, it is not something these fish and shrimps can bear.
The dragon’s roar made Nie Si Niang dizzy and her mind wavering. She snorted coldly, and used her luck and true energy to forcefully suppress the uncomfortable feeling.
Although he had seen a real dragon and knew that this beast was now Xiao Han’s pet, he was still a little scared when facing it.
The huge body of the real dragon almost spanned the entire banks of the Sui River, and its scales glowed with a dark light.
“I will do my best to call the wind and rain for me later.”
He patted the dragon’s head and said, “If you dare to be lazy, you will suffer the consequences.”
The real dragon nodded.
In the blink of an eye, it was three quarters past noon. The sun rose to its highest point above our heads, and the sky and earth were filled with hot air.
Most of the ice and snow in the mountains had melted, leaving only sparse white spots, reflecting the eunuch’s light.
Xiao Han stepped onto the altar, picked up his pen and wrote a sacrificial text to heaven. Then he took out the seal of the King of Xiliang from his sleeve, stamped it on the sacrificial text, and threw it into the cauldron.
“God is above.”
He took a half step back, raised his head, looked at the sky, and said word by word: “In order to pacify the chaotic world, I am asking Heaven to borrow three days of heavy rain today. I hope Heaven will grant it.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sacrificial text in the cauldron burned to ashes and turned into a wisp of smoke that rose into the sky. In a moment, two dark clouds suddenly floated over the originally clear sky.
Immediately afterwards, a deafening thunder rang in the ears of Xiao Han and Nie Si Niang, and it lasted for a long time.
“God agreed.”
Xiao Han raised the corner of his mouth.
“You agree now?”
“Is this true?” Nie Si Niang’s eyes showed some suspicion. She couldn’t help but looked around, but didn’t find anything unusual.
“Your cultivation is too weak, so you can’t hear the reply from the Heavenly Dao.”
Xiao Han teased.
Two black lines appeared between Nie Si Niang’s eyebrows, and the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but twitch.
“Rumble”
“Rumble”
More and more dark clouds gathered from all directions, and in just a stick of incense, they covered the sky. The sky was dark, with lightning and thunder. Dense electric snakes roared in the dark clouds, making a deafening roar.
The wind was blowing hard and the dark clouds were growing thicker. In the river, a real dragon was roaring and its roar was shaking the sky.
Its body caused chaos in the river. The wind became increasingly violent. Dense lightning bolts fell from the sky and the void exploded.
“It’s done.”
Xiao Han clapped his hands, stepped down from the altar, took out an imperial edict with the seal of the King of Xiliang and handed it to Nie Si Niang, “Go to Suizhou camp immediately and give it to Liao Huan. Tell him that Suizhou will be flooded at midnight three days later. Let him prepare in advance.”
Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.
“it is good.”
Nie Si Niang put away the imperial edict, turned around and left. After a few breaths, she disappeared from sight.
There were strong winds, lightning and thunder. In less than half an hour, drizzle began to fall from the sky. The rain was small at first, but it grew bigger and bigger. At night, the rain was like a bucket of water pouring down.
As the river surged, the water level began to rise rapidly.
The area within hundreds of miles was controlled by the Xiliang Army. In order to block the news, Xiao Han also specially sent additional personnel from the Secret Service and the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
This was to prevent the changes in Suihe River from being discovered by the spies of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
The sky was getting darker, the wind and rain were getting stronger, the thunder was rumbling, the earth and sky were shaking, by the river, Xiao Han stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance at the world, waiting until the last ray of light faded away.
The woman wrapped in a long black dress returns.
“Delivered?”
he asked.
“Ah.”
“I handed it to General Liao Huan personally.”
“Let’s go.”
He turned around and walked with Nie Si Niang along the downstream of the Sui River. The two walked side by side, each taking a step a hundred feet, like gods.
“The river stretches for thousands of miles, spanning three states. If the water level changes too much, it will be easily discovered by the Northern Wei people downstream.”
“The main purpose of a water attack is to catch the enemy by surprise.”
Xiao Han said softly: “So there is one more thing we need to do.”
“Block up some of the river downstream.”
Nie Si Niang smiled with bright eyes: “Let the water level of Suihe River look normal while accumulating water upstream. Then we can dig up the river bank and the water will flow down in an instant and head straight for Suizhou City.”
“clever.”
The man nodded.
After walking for about a cup of tea, the two stopped at a flat river channel. There were towering cliffs on both sides and the river channel in the middle.
Moreover, the water level here is very high, so we only need to block the river channel to trap the water flowing along the river.
“This is it.”
He squinted his eyes. The night was gloomy and dark as ink. He couldn’t see his hand in front of him. However, Xiao Han’s eyes could see everything within the area clearly.
At his current level, there is no difference between night and day.
His right hand stretched out from his sleeve, and two fingers formed a sword. He stood on a hundred-foot cliff and slashed at the towering mountain opposite with his sword finger in the air.
