Chapter 72: The Abominable Divine Stick
Although the wind-powered water wheel draws water quickly, there are too many fields in Shanghe Village, and only half of the farmland is irrigated for two days and one night, if you want all the farmland to be irrigated, you have to wait at least one or two days, but fortunately, the crops in the field can hold up for the time being, and it has been waiting for so long, not bad for one or two days.
However, the plan could not catch up with the change, on this day, Li Hao was enjoying the cool in the small bamboo forest in the courtyard, Du Hong suddenly ran over in a hurry to report that the villagers of Xiahe Village rushed into Shanghe Village to dismantle the wind-powered waterwheel.
Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, and he didn't have time to ask in detail, so he hurriedly called his personal bodyguard Lu Yun, prepared a horse and went to the wind-powered waterwheel, and when he arrived at the place, he saw hundreds of people fighting on the south bank of the river embankment, and the scene was extremely chaotic.
Li Hao rode on the horse and opened his throat and shouted: "Stop me!" ”
His shout was really useful, the two sides really stopped, three or four hundred pairs of eyes were all staring at him, Li Hao was the first time to be noticed by so many people, making him embarrassed, he turned over and dismounted, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "I am Li Hao, the man of Lantian County who was personally named by His Majesty, where are the villages on both sides, come out and speak!" ”
As soon as they heard that it was a man from Lantian County, the people of Xiahe Village suddenly didn't dare to make noise, only to see a gray-haired old man slowly walking out of the crowd, and arched his hand: "The villain Xiahe Village is in Youtian, and I will meet Lord Li." ”
The village of Shanghe Village is a forty-year-old rough man, who has dealt with Li Hao many times when he built the wind power waterwheel, and he is considered an acquaintance, but he still understands the etiquette that should be had, and he also stepped forward and saluted: "The villain Wu Da Niu greets the lord." ”
Li Hao looked at the two of them and asked with a straight face, "Why is the conflict?" ”
Wu Da Niu suddenly glared at the old man with anger on his face, and said angrily: "Back to the lord's words, this old killer is ......."
Li Hao hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "After all, don't scold." "He is here to mediate, and when mediating, he is most taboo and swearing, because it will exacerbate the conflict again.
"Yes." Wu Da Niu said, "Yu Youtian is unreasonable, and he wants to take someone to destroy our wind turbine, sir, this wind turbine was built by you with a lot of effort, how can we let them destroy it." ”
Li Hao frowned when he heard this, looked at Yu Youtian, and asked, "Old man Yu, why did you want to destroy my wind-powered waterwheel?" This doesn't seem to be your Xiahe Village's territory. ”
Yu Youtian was a little panicked when he heard this, he only knew that Shanghe Village had built a wind-powered waterwheel, but he didn't know that this waterwheel was built by Li Hao with money, and if he wanted to dismantle the waterwheel, it would offend Li Hao, and the suppression of aristocratic status was not a joke, Yu Youtian's momentum suddenly weakened, and he hurriedly said: "Back to the lord's words, it was Liu Banxian who worshiped the sky and got the will of heaven, saying that this waterwheel went against the sky, violated the mandate of heaven, and must be demolished, so that he could get rain for us." ”
"What's that?" Li Hao's two eyebrows seemed to be dancing, and his expression was very exciting, "Then where is Liu Banxian?" Get the hell out of here! Lao Tzu had something to ask him. ”
There was a commotion in the crowd in Xiahe Village, and then a middle-aged man in a gray robe was pushed out.
This middle-aged man has a bun on his head, long eyebrows and long eyes, a three-inch swallow beard fluttering on his chest, a bell in his right hand, and a flag in his left hand.
At first glance, this shape does look like a master of the world, but no matter how you look at it, the flag looks like a deceitful magic stick, with bad reviews.
Liu Banxian was a little flustered when he was just pushed out of the crowd, but after all, he was an old man, and he had seen a lot of this kind of scene, so he immediately regained his composure, tidied up his clothes, put on a pretending appearance of fairy wind and bones, and saluted Li Hao with a raised palm: "Immeasurable Tianzun, the poor way is polite." ”
"What's your point? What's the reason? Are you justified in dismantling my windmill? Li Hao scolded him as soon as he opened his mouth, after all, Li Hao was too angry, it took 4,500 guan to build, no, 4,500 guan is not the point, this is related to the harvest of the villagers of Shanghe Village, to put it seriously, this waterwheel is now the lifeblood of Shanghe Village, a god of death stick will come to dismantle the waterwheel and die if he talks nonsense.
"Don't be in a hurry, sir, and listen to the poor man." Liu Banxian looked at Li Hao confidently.
Li Hao sneered, spread his hands and said, "You say, you say." ”
Liu Banxian said slowly: "Poor Dao cultivation for more than 50 years, coincidentally, I have obtained immortal fate, and I can communicate with the Nine Heavens ......."
Li Hao didn't expect him to be able to brag so seriously, he couldn't help it, rolled up his sleeves and pointed at him, glared and shouted: "You don't believe it or not, Lao Tzu tore your mouth!" ”
Liu Banxian also saw that Li Hao's temper was not very good, so he paved the way and forced the part to skip it directly, and said the main topic: "There is no rain in Guanzhong all summer, and the drought is gradually appearing, and the poor road is sympathetic to the common people, so he should be entrusted by the village of Xiahe Village, and go to ask for rain for them. ”
"Huh...... Hehe......" Li Hao sneered again and again, except for sneering, he had no other way to express his anger and disdain, the ancients believed in the gods, but he didn't believe it, even if he crossed this matter, it had nothing to do with the gods and ghosts, it was completely physical.
Li Hao sneered for a long time, and sneered: "It's just a waterwheel, how can it go against the sky, how can it go against the peace?" ”
Liu Banxian's face did not change and said: "In ancient times, the four forces of water, fire, wind and thunder were controlled by the gods, and the gods gave the power of water and fire to all the people, but the power of wind and thunder belonged to the gods and could not be used by people. ”
Li Hao was stunned when he heard this, he always thought that he was the most in the entire Tang Dynasty, but he didn't expect this product to be more than himself, this is definitely an old god stick who can't be more senior, one word - professional!
Li Haoming knew that he was talking nonsense, but he couldn't find the words to expose him, there was no way, the ancients were ignorant, and he couldn't tell them: There are no gods in this world! The estimation is absolutely counterproductive.
When Li Hao and Liu Banxian confronted each other, there were three big names who were also present, it was Wang Chaosheng, Li Shimin and Zuojin Wuwei General Tian Meng, because there were more people present, so no one noticed them.
Li Shimin just visited the wind-powered waterwheel there, and was amazed by this wind-powered waterwheel, he even felt that this thing should be worth four thousand five hundred, and at the same time, the mood to meet Li Hao was even more eager, and he even secretly thought that Li Hao was a lucky star given to him by God to the Tang Dynasty.
At that time, the villagers of the two sides clashed not far away, and then Li Hao arrived, Li Shimin asked Jin Wuwei to retreat for the time being, and took the dynasty saint and Tian Meng over to see the excitement.
When Liu Banxian said those words, Li Shimin and Wang Chaosheng both frowned, and they suddenly felt that Liu Banxian was so reasonable, but they also knew that this stinky Taoist priest was, and the highest level of was that others knew that you were, but they couldn't refute you, Liu Banxian succeeded, and the country owed him a championship trophy, Li Shimin is now looking forward to Li Hao's performance, he wants to see how Li Hao will deal with Liu Banxian's.
Li Hao pondered for a moment, already had an idea in his heart, and asked coldly: "Liu Banxian, if you dismantle this windmill, can you really ask for rain?" ”
Liu Banxian nodded and said, "Naturally." ”
"Good!" Li Hao clapped his hands and said, "Then let's make a bet, I dismantle the windmill now, if you ask for rain, I will give you a thousand, if you don't ask for rain, hehe, then cut off your three-inch tongue!" Do you dare to bet! ”
A trace of panic flashed on Liu Banxian's face when he heard this, can he not panic, he has been cheating for more than ten years, and it is the first time he has encountered such a ruthless one, and he wants to cut his tongue, but fortunately, he has extraordinary concentration, pretending to be calm, and nodding with a smile: "Why don't you dare to ask for rain today, but the auspicious time for asking for rain today has passed, and if you want to ask for rain, you must wait until tomorrow." ”
Li Hao nodded: "Then I'll wait until tomorrow to dismantle the windmill." ”
"No." Liu Banxian shook his head and said, "The lord must dismantle the windmill first today, so that the gods can know as soon as possible, and I can successfully get rain tomorrow." ”
Li Hao laughed twice, nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll order someone to dismantle the windmill now." ”
After he finished speaking, he turned around and called Du Hong, and said in his ear: "You ask Lu Zhi to gather all the craftsmen and unload the windmill leaves completely." ”
Du Hong took the order and left, and Lu Yun on the side said: "Li Hao, do you really want to do this, this is ......?"
Li Hao raised his hand to stop his words, and said slowly: "This stinky god stick is very tricky and difficult to deal with, but if he can really ask for rain, it would be good, if he can't ask for it, hum...... I made him regret coming into this world! ”
Lu Yun frowned and said: "Even if you kill him, it's useless, now is not the time to be angry with him, irrigating the farmland is the most important thing." ”
"I know this better than you." Li Hao said lightly, "So I asked the craftsman to remove the windmill leaves completely, and when the matter is over, it will be completely installed, and it will only take a day, and it won't take long." ”
"I see." Lu Yun praised from the bottom of his heart, "I didn't expect you to be young, but you act without leakage." ”
Li Hao said: "Don't be busy praising me first, this stinky god stick is a liar, it is estimated that he will slip away tonight, you keep an eye on him for me, don't let him run away, tomorrow I will cut off his tongue and feed it to the dog." ”
Lu Yun raised his eyebrows lightly: "Don't worry, if he runs away, you cut my tongue." ”
Li Hao shook him with a roll of his eyes: "Pretending to be forced is going to be struck by lightning." ”
Lu Yun looked confused, obviously not quite adapted to Li Hao's speaking style.
At the same time, Li Shimin quietly said to Wang Chaosheng: "This Li Hao is really too young and inexperienced, and he was deceived by this Taoist priest." ”
Wang Chaosheng nodded: "Yes, it seems that this Taoist priest will escape tonight." ”
Li Shimin snorted coldly: "Hmph! If you want to escape, I'm afraid it's not so easy! After speaking, he glanced at Chaotian, and it was obvious that this magic stick made Li Shimin very angry.
Tian Meng immediately understood, and gave his hand to retire, it seems that in addition to Lu Yun tonight, there will be hundreds of Jin Wuwei who will specifically target this Taoist priest, if he does not die in this catastrophe, this matter is enough for him to blow for a lifetime.
