Li Kailiang and Bai Chenghuan naturally had to submit the information to the Ministry of Water before starting construction. The water department seems to have called back more than a dozen times in a row, which is very harsh, and Yan Shichu's subordinates have also revised and submitted it more than a dozen times.

Both sides are tireless, and it stands to reason that they have met the requirements of the Ministry of Water.

"Drawings and materials are one and the same thing. Zhang Xianlong strained his face, "The real construction process is another matter. After the levee burst, the register submitted by Bai Chenghuan was being audited, but in any case, the embankment burst and caused a monstrous flood, and Qing Lebo was duty-bound. ”

If something happens, someone must be responsible, which is in line with public opinion and national conditions, and even Xiao Mi can't say anything.

From his point of view, everything is inevitably a word "reason".

"If it's the flood that causes the levee to burst, I'm to blame. Yan Saburo took this matter directly on himself, and said in a clear voice, "If there are other reasons, I'm afraid I have to talk about it." ”

Zhang Xianlong really envied him.

The only one who dares to be so open-mouthed in front of the increasingly majestic King Wei is this Qingle Bo.

He smiled angrily: "The newly repaired weir bursts, can there be other reasons besides flooding?"

Yan Saburo said lightly: "Bai Chenghuan and Chen Erhei, who was in charge of the scene, should have reported to you that there are abnormal changes in the water volume in the upper reaches of Bailingchuan. ”

Xiao Mi's eyes froze when he heard this: "What changes?

Zhang Xianlong hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, according to the argument of Qing Lebo's subordinates, the water volume of Shichang Bay in the upper reaches of Bailing River during the flood is far greater than the sand ditch more than ten miles above it. ”

"So?" Xiao Mi didn't understand, it was too abstract.

"The water of the Bailing River first passes through the sand ditch and then to Shichang Bay, and there is no tributary in the middle, and it is close to each other. Yan Saburo explained, "Since the flood water rushed down from the upstream, the water volume of the two places should be almost the same, and even the area of the sand ditch is much smaller than that of Shichang Bay, its water level should be higher and the flood should be more extensive." However, the bamboo on the shore of the sand ditch is basically undamaged, and there is no sign of flood water invading the mainland. In other words, the flood that only increased from Shichang Bay has a strange origin. ”

Zhang Xianlong shook his head: "River changes are the norm. Besides, whether the water volume in Shichang Bay is large or the water volume in Shagou is small, both of which are in Bailingchuan, what is the difference in the impact on the downstream Longkou Weir?"

Xiao Mi snorted. Indeed, isn't it all a flood flowing down from the upper reaches of the Bailing River, and what is the meaning of the sub-field section?

Yan Saburo said in a condensed voice: "Master Zhang, as the Shuibu Langzhong, doesn't he want to figure out the original reason? In addition, do you know that there are monsters in the Bailing River and cannibalism in the Yuan family near Longhu?"

Zhang Xianlong frowned and shook his head: "I haven't heard of it, when will it happen?"

"In a village, there are very few people who have escaped alive. ”

Xiao Mi was moved, and her face was cold: "Why haven't you heard of it?" There are rumors of monsters eating people in Lanjiang, and now even Shengyi has it?

This is the foot of the Son of Heaven, which eyeless monsters dare to come here to spread wild!

"The survivors moved to the southern district of Shengyi ten days ago and reported to the government, but they were not taken seriously. However, General Shi Congyi and I both looked for survivors to lead the way, and we went to Yuanjiadang. Yan Saburo said softly, "There are few villains in Yuanjiadang Village, and the whole village is forty or fifty people, living by the water, far away from people, and the news has not spread." ”

"Nancheng Bureau?" Xiao Mi said in a calm tone, "Okay, great!"

It is clear that such a major event has occurred, and the Nancheng Department has not taken the initiative to report it for ten days after receiving the report, negligence and slackness!

However, he suppressed his anger in a blink of an eye and continued to ask Yan Sanlang: "You went to Yuan Jiadang, did you find anything?"

"Yesterday I went. Yan Saburo said truthfully, "My luck is better than General Shi, I just happened to meet a monster and return to the village and destroy it." ”

His descriptions of events are prosaic and never exaggerated. Xiao Mi secretly thought that Yan Boy was too boring at this point, and subconsciously rubbed his palms: "What about it? ”

Yan Saburo also carefully explained the experience of the snake lizard.

Since sitting on the throne, these strange adventures have not been touched. Xiao Mi sighed and listened to Yan Sanlang say, "I brought back the remains of the snake lizard, can the king see it?"

Xiao Mi's spirit lifted slightly: "Release it out and show it to Lone." ”

Of course, the remains of the stumps were inconvenient to put in the imperial study, so King Wei designated to move them to the garden outside, and made people put up the ground, so that Yan Saburo released the snake lizard.

When those monsters appeared on the ground, Xiao Mi, Zhang Xianlong, and the palace people in the garden were all taken aback. In particular, the snake lizard king is amazingly tall and hideous, and he is not a good kind at first glance.

The garden was fishy.

Zhang Xianlong secretly covered his nose, but King Wei took a few steps forward with great interest and observed carefully. The palace man hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, be careful of your boots stained with blood!"

Xiao Mi waved his hand and waved back impatiently: "Go down, don't get in the way!"

He looked around twice and pointed to the knife on the belly of the snake lizard: "This is your knife?"

"Chitose. ”

Xiao Mi pursed her lips. "What did you find?"

Yan Saburo took out the gastrolith and reproduced the explanation of yesterday's Chitose. Xiao Mi was stunned when she heard this: "You say, this is a creature of the Shura Dao?"

"There shouldn't be anything in the world. Yan Saburo shook the bezoars in his hand, "The existence of these bezoars is enough to show that they come from the Shura Dao." ”

The logic of it, of course, Xiao Mi and Zhang Xianlong can also figure it out.

Zhang Xianlong coughed lightly: "This monster does look strange, but how can Qing Lebo prove that this is an otherworldly creature? There has never been a shortage of rare and unusual species in the world, and it is just hidden in the deep mountains and Daze." ”

Tsubame Saburo didn't know about snakes and lizards, and it was Chitose who identified them. But at this time, it is undoubtedly inappropriate to move out of Asura.

Fortunately, he was prepared, and took out a booklet from his arms: "This is the evidence." ”

Xiao Mi took it and took a look, it turned out to be a picture book, called "Jia Baoshan Sleepwalking Six Paths"; he opened it casually and saw that there were all kinds of monster portraits inside, none of which looked like human beings, which could be called a map of gods and demons.

"What is this?"

"Jia Baoshan is a strange man in the pre-Yasukuni period, with special talents, and he is the legendary 'nightmare', which can communicate between the virtual and the real. Yan Saburo explained, "His mana is very powerful, and as he gets older, he even occasionally glimpses the six realms. This album is his painting of what he saw and heard in his dreams. ”

Xiao Mi opened a few pages, and her pupils shrank: "Hmm, snake lizard!"

This page depicts humanoid creatures, with hands and feet, a strong body, and a cold gaze. At his feet crawled a huge beast, like a four-legged snake magnified several times, with fangs like nails, it was a snake lizard!

He turned forward again, and saw that the words "Shura Dao" were written on the blank page, and the dozen or so pictures behind him were all depicting Shura Dao sentient beings.

The snake lizard leaped onto the paper, as if looking up at its master. Xiao Mi pointed at the man: "What is this?"

There is no one in the Shura Dao, this thing just looks like a person.
