Chapter 165: See the Dragon
Outside the city...
Seeing the little faces wrinkled together, as if the little girl was not getting what she wanted, she was having a quarrel, but Song Yingyue, who was powerful above ten thousand people, could not help but feel a chill on her back, as if she was staring at by a flood of beasts.
Song Yingyue, the most doting princess of the Emperor of Song State.
Princess!
Although I had a short contact before, Song Yingyue looked like an ordinary little girl at that time, and when she was afraid, she would need someone to hold her. But at this moment, looking at the terrifying power in Song Yingyue's eyes, Wu Mian knew that the princess was the princess!
Even if Song Yingyue is easy-going, once something really happens, in this world where the knights and monks are under the control of the court, the power behind her will make her a terrifying person than any martial arts master, or even a cultivator who is about to become an immortal!
There is no need to be any doubt about this. After all, the most common monks in the world are the Haotian Sect, and most of the disciples of the Haotian Sect work in the court. The orthodox Taoist temples are also built and offered by the court. It can be said that the monks in the world are all monks in the court. Random cultivators either join the court to accept worship or become unreasonable idle clouds and wild cranes.
In this case, Song Yingyue's look and words were all because the power behind her had great power and real power!
"Ahem..."
After coughing twice, his eyes moved from Song Yingyue to the yamen runner who reported the news. Wu Mian said lightly: "You go down first, have someone organize a room for His Royal Highness the Princess, and then let the kitchen prepare some food."
"Here!"
After the yamen runner agreed loudly without raising his head, he hurriedly left the room.
When he left, Wu Mian's fear arose because of the power in Song Yingyue's eyes faded and moved his eyes to Song Yingyue again.
This is a little loli! What am I afraid of!
After staring at Song Yingyue who looked like he was waiting for his explanation, Wu Mian sighed and said in pain: "These people outside the city are affected by locust plague."
"I know this! But they just slept on the ground! Why don't they let them go into the city? And I heard that they only have a bowl of porridge a day! What about the food in Langzhou?!"
"There was a major epidemic after the disaster. But this major epidemic did not begin after the disaster. According to the Langzhou Geographical Records and the files left by previous magistrates, there will be plagues in Langzhou every major disaster. At this moment, the people outside the city have only been gathered for a few days, and it is not clear whether there is any problem, so they dare not let them enter the city, so as not to have a plague. If they are put in, the entire Kangda City will suffer."
"As for their food... After the disaster, it will take at least one year for Langzhou to resume farming. Although there is still some food storage in the grain warehouse, the amount of porridge that the people of Langzhou can last for a month or two is too much. How can they dare to let them eat more?"
"Eat more at this moment, and you will be hungry in the future!"
Wu Mian answered the interests in an orderly manner as if he had known Song Yingyue’s question in advance.
This calm attitude made Song Yingyue's power fade a lot, and she listened like a student who was eager to learn.
"Is it enough to ask the doctor to check it out for food when they are afraid of plague? You can also ask for some food from the surrounding prefectures and counties."
Song Yingyue's words made Wu Mian smile unconsciously, and then took out a document from the side and handed it to Song Yingyue: "Senior sister, this is not Shangzhou. There are not so many doctors in Langzhou, so we can identify whether the people outside the city have been infected with the plague. And... we came from Shangzhou."
Song Yingyue, who reached out to catch the document handed over by Wu Mian, froze for a moment.
She was still in Shangzhou two days ago and knew very well how severe the disaster was in Shangzhou. At the same time, she also realized that what she said was too naive.
Shangzhou is one of the most important prefectures in the Song State. Langzhou and Shangzhou were affected at the same time. The imperial court will definitely give priority to various resources, including grain, to Shangzhou in order to restore the livelihood of Shangzhou as soon as possible.
In this case, the resources of other prefectures and counties will naturally be tilted towards Shangzhou. Langzhou wants to ask for food from other prefectures, but even she cannot guarantee that she will succeed if she comes forward.
Besides, even if she succeeded, she knew that it should not be enough for the entire Langzhou people to consume.
Whether it is heard in the palace or learned in books, I clearly say how many people will starve to death in every natural disaster!
After blinking, he bit his peach-pink lips again. Song Yingyue looked down at the document Wu Mian gave her, and found that it was a list of doctors from Kangdacheng.
After turning it over, her eyes widened in an instant: "Even the apprentices, there are only seventy-six doctors in Kangda City?!"
What can seventy-six doctors do? Moreover, they also include apprentices!
Chang Mall mobilized nearly a thousand doctors to check the plague outside the city. There were still many doctors in the city to take care of them, and Kangda City had only 76 people, including apprentices!
Not to mention the plague, even if you usually deal with minor illnesses and lesions, Song Yingyue feels that this is not enough for doctors!
No wonder the people outside the city were left to ignore them... but they couldn't ignore them either!
Bitering her teeth lightly, Song Yingyue was about to ask if there was another way to deal with the victims outside the city. After all, the miserable appearance of the victims she saw after she landed, she had to feel compassion in her heart.
But the moment she opened her mouth, her words suddenly choked in her throat. She just stared at Wu Mian for a moment, then closed her eyes, raised her right hand, pointed at the middle finger and pointed it as a sword, and stroked her eyes in front of her, and opened her fingers and eyes at the same time.
What's this pose?
yeah?
Take a photo?
Sailor Moon transformed?
Looking at Song Yingyue's sudden actions, Wu Mian was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but think of some pictures of cute girls who were maliciously acting cute on the Internet in his previous life.
But when these thoughts were surging in his heart, he suddenly shivered, and a strange feeling that he had been stripped clean and was standing naked in front of Song Yingyue, and was being watched by her without any trace.
Although it was nothing for a big man to be seen, it was still a cute little loli to be seen.
But the problem is that Wu Mian is not really being seen...or rather, it is not that his body is being seen, but something deeper is being peeked at by Song Yingyue. That feeling made Wu Mian feel that all his secrets seemed to be seen by Song Yingyue, and she felt an unbearable sense of crisis and anger... and the desire to confront.
Vaguely, Wu Mian felt that he seemed to see something moving in his eyes, but the picture was blurry and faint, just like the film negative of an old camera, which was difficult to see clearly.
However, as time flows, as Song Yingyue's gaze brings a stronger desire to confrontation, the weak and blurry picture gradually becomes clearer... the swimming thing is a one-stop!
The dragon's horns are like deer, the head is like a camel, the eyes are like a rabbit, the neck is like a snake, the belly is like a mirage, the scales are like a fish, the claws are like an eagle, the palms are like tigers, and the ears are like a cow... The image of a dragon reflected in Wu Mian's eyes is a dragon.
The dragon was staring at him with a curious look, as if he was about to pounce on him.
But the dragon seems to have not yet grown completely. The dragon's horns are small, like bamboo shoots that have just broken through the ground, with a tender and soft feeling, without seeing the glory...
"Ahem!"
Before Wu Mian could observe carefully, Zhuge Qing suddenly coughed twice.
Because of these two coughs, Wu Mian suddenly felt a pain in his eyes and couldn't help but close his eyes. When he opened it again, there was no dragon in front of him. Song Yingyue, who was covering his eyes with his hands, was lowering her hair and making a little painful Shen Yin.
"Teacher...Senior sister..."
When he inserted between Wu Mian and Song Yingyue, Zhuge Qing frowned deeply, with a serious expression: "Young Master Wu, Your Highness, don't look around, you two will be blind."
When saying this, Zhuge Qing stared at Wu Mian: "Especially, Mr. Wu. If you can open your eyes, it is almost caused by Taoism. You have no control over the method, and you can open or not. If you look at things you shouldn't see, you are afraid that it will be more than just blind."
After saying to Wu Mian, Zhuge Qing turned around and looked at Song Yingyue, who had already committed the hands covering her eyes: "Your Highness the Princess is the same. The six methods of Tianmu are to allow Your Highness to grasp the dragon veins in various places and preside over the rituals. It is really a waste of talent to use it."
Blinking with bloodshot eyes, big red like rabbit eyes, Song Yingyue lowered her head and said, "Thank you, Senior Zhuge, for reminding me, I will pay attention."
After saying that, she raised her head again, looked at Wu Mian who was blocked by Zhuge Qing, and asked in confusion: "Being Daohua? What's going on?"
Wu Mian pulled the corner of his mouth: "I just saw something that I shouldn't have seen with the round light water mirror technique."
"The Technique of the Round Light Water Mirror? Do you still know this kind of spell?" Song Yingyue asked, as she seemed to feel her eyes itchy. After blinking, she reached out to rub it.
And after this rubbing, she let out a whimper and covered her eyes again.
"show me."
Zhuge Qing took Song Yingyue's hand away, looked carefully at Song Yingyue's big eyes that were getting redder and were almost no different from rabbits for a moment, and said lightly: "It was probably because he opened his eyes and looked at Mr. Wu just now, and his needle eyes grew. It would be fine. It would be fine in two days."
As he said that, he turned around and looked at Wu Mian. Seeing that Wu Mian's eyes were full of doubt, but there was no trace of difference in the past. After a little stunned, he smiled and said, "It seems that Mr. Wu's eyes are opened deeper than His Royal Highness. If you have the Tao, you will have good fortune in the future. This is also a blessing for the young master to be almost transformed into Dao."
After saying that, he walked out between Wu Mian and Song Yingyue, stood aside and said, "Let's go back to the topic."
"Your Highness the Princess hopes to treat the victims outside the city well. This is a good thing and an important matter. The rain prayer ceremony is not only presided over by His Highness the Princess, but also requires the participation of the people and gather the hearts of the people to report to God. The possibility of such a successful rain prayer will be greatly improved. It is really not appropriate to open the warehouse and release grain. After all, Shanglang and the two prefectures were affected by the disaster, and the court affirmed that they must first provide relief to Shangzhou."
"Shangzhou has many people. If there are many disasters due to disasters, it will be a huge trend."
His words made both Wu Mian and Song Yingyue silent.
