Mystery Makes Me Strong
Chapter 2350 The River God Arrives
When Xu Xian saw this, he was naturally very angry.
He wants to be a doctor, and his biggest dream is to save the poor.
Young Xu Xian has great ideals.
Be a doctor and treat people, marry a beautiful girl, and have a happy family.
What an upright person.
Any father would be happy to have such a son.
But the evil feudal society of gods and Buddhas forced such a person to become a sutra reciter...
At this time, Wen Rensheng will help the other party break his original fate.
At this time, Xu Xian quickly begged: "Great God, do you have any way to help these people?"
"If you want to help these people, you have to take responsibility."
"responsibility?"
"Yes, you are the river god and you live by incense."
"The people support you, just as the people pay taxes to support the government. The government must protect the people, and you must also protect the people."
"This is a matter of course." Xu Xian accepted it easily.
He is a reasonable man.
To receive money, you must do things, and to give money, you must treat illnesses.
He could understand this.
"That is to say, you have to defeat Liu's hometown gentry, government officials, and local gangs."
"These three parties are the three most harsh mountains for ordinary people."
"Their existence will seriously reduce people's enthusiasm for production."
"Inventions become meaningless."
"Even if you learn how to raise fish, what will happen to you?"
"So what if you just improve the method of raising fish?"
"They have plundered the last big bit, and the more you produce, the more you are plundered." Wen Rensheng explained one by one.
Xu Xian nodded repeatedly.
This was the first time he heard these principles that were different from those of the teacher!
But it feels very clear and clear.
Those who are different from others are difficult for people to understand.
What a mess...
Xu Xian naturally didn't understand:
This is why any feudal society will fall into involution and eventually explode completely.
It's because they have no one to restrict or compromise.
Desperately squeezing the people, in the end, they killed themselves in advance before reaching the land limit.
At this time, Xu Xian understood, and then asked: "Great God, I understand, but what should I do specifically?"
"These people are so bad."
Wen Rensheng smiled and said: "You are a god now, you have the skills of a god."
"You can dream and control rivers."
"Just tell them in your dreams now that they must not exploit these hard-working fishermen."
"You're right, I can fall asleep, but how can I fall asleep?" Xu Xian became excited.
"It's very simple, you just need to find them, then send a wisp of smoke to their foreheads, and then you can enter their dreams."
"They can see you in their dreams, and then you speak to them and they can hear you in their dreams."
Wen Rensheng then personally demonstrated it to Xu Xian in the form of smoke.
It just floats around and covers the heads of creatures with smoke.
Very simple.
Of course, this was deliberately simplified by Wen Rensheng.
For real gods, entering dreams is not a small magic, it consumes a lot of money and encounters many obstacles.
So I won’t fall asleep easily.
After Xu Xian read it, he immediately started to move his smoke-like body around like a child who got a toy.
One moment, the little rabbit falls into a dream, and the other, the grasshopper falls into a dream.
Anyway, very excited.
Fortunately, he was a thoughtful person, and then he thought of getting down to business quickly.
So after learning it, Xu Xian first targeted the Liu family.
Because the Liu family is closest to the fishermen, they also want the most.
The pressure is usually the most severe.
Hit people often.
The head of the Liu family, that squire is called Liu Dedi.
He is a scholar.
A scholarly family head is actually very powerful.
After all, this is the land of Jiangnan, and it is very difficult to take the exam.
Although there are relatively many people admitted to the scholarship, the competition is also fierce.
The head of the Liu family relied on his reputation as a scholar to influence the affairs of Qiantang County.
After all, he was qualified to enter the county, met many literati, and knew a lot of news.
This information is another layer of protection for him to dominate.
For example, tax increases and tax cuts...
The Liu family owns approximately 600 acres of land.
This number seems small compared to the Central Plains and the North.
But don’t forget that this is a crowded Jiangnan land.
600 acres is already a lot.
In fact, the biography of Xu Xian should be from the Southern Song Dynasty.
The Southern Song Dynasty only had half of the country, but its population was more than 70 million.
You can imagine how crowded this land is.
This evening.
The head of the Liu family is sleeping alone in his study room in the name of studying for exams.
Preparing for the exam is not preparing for the imperial examination, but a routine qualifying test for scholars every year.
If you do poorly on the exam, you will be revoked.
Of course, as long as you give enough money, you won't get a bad grade in this kind of exam.
He is already old and can no longer bear the demands of those concubines and his wife.
Then he slept alone in the study.
While sleeping soundly.
Xu Xian drifted over.
A huge cloud of smoke was invisible in the night.
This is not the hereafter.
Even in the land of Jiangnan, there are not many lights at night.
Besides, this is the countryside.
Not the county seat.
Then Xu Xian added a hint of smoke and floated it over his head.
Then Liu Dedi felt that a god appeared in his mind.
The god was facing him and said:
"Poor fishermen who raise fish in your river."
"Don't exploit them anymore, don't take money from them."
Obviously Xu Xian believed whatever others said.
He directly regarded the river as the Liu family's river.
In fact, this river must belong to the imperial court.
The vassal kings of the Southern Song Dynasty did not have actual fiefdoms.
Not during the Han and Tang Dynasties.
Rivers, mines and forests are theoretically owned by the government.
It's just that the nearby squire directly occupied it with his fame and servants. As for the government, all he needed was some money.
Liu Dedi was suddenly confused: "Which god are you?"
"I am the local river god. Remember, I am the river god. Stop depriving those poor people who raise fish in your river."
"Give them a bite to eat."
Xu Xian's tone was pleading.
After all, he has not yet adapted to his status as a god.
After Liu Dedi heard this, he was a human being.
When I heard the other party's soft tone, I immediately became angry.
"What kind of river god are you? You're just a spirit from somewhere."
"Get out of my dream now."
In fact, he still didn't believe it.
If you believe it, you would never dare to do this.
Xu Xian was a little angry, but he was unwilling to argue with others.
So he actually left.
Soon the head of the Liu family came to his senses.
After waking up, he still remembered the river god that had just appeared in his dream.
"It's ridiculous. Why would a river god care about those poor idiots?"
"I must have something to think about every day and something to dream about at night."
"I must have forgotten to prepare this year's gift for the magistrate."
"Well, that's why I have this worry. Just because the county magistrate will leave after the new year, we can't stop giving people new year gifts."
Liu Dedi thought so.
Then he ordered the butler to come over overnight to prepare gifts.
He will go to the city early tomorrow morning to deliver gifts.
After Xu Xian saw this, he suddenly felt depressed.
He said to Wen Rensheng in frustration: "Great Immortal, this method of entering dreams doesn't seem to work. Then the head of the Liu family doesn't listen to me."
"It doesn't work? Do you still remember how your sister took care of you when you were disobedient when you were a child?" Wen Rensheng laughed casually.
"Uh, it seems to be with a broom or soles?" Xu Xian thought carefully.
It seems that the number of times I hit myself is very few.
I kind of forgot.
"Haha, you do the same."
"But I can't use a broom."
"You, you want to piss me off so you can inherit my divine power, right?" Wen Rensheng said with a smile.
Of course he wouldn't be angry with Xu Xian.
Xu Xian just didn't react for a moment.
"Oh, I understand. You can control water. The Liu family lives by the river. I can teach them a lesson and make them listen to me." Xu Xian suddenly said.
"Yes, can they still cross the river even if they come and go?" Wen Rensheng nodded.
"Yes, when I cross the river, I have to use a little more strength. Wait," Xu Xian said worriedly at this time, "What if I rush someone into the river and drown?"
"Drowning? Impossible. You forgot that you just saved a child from Baoshan."
"You can just help people out when they are about to drown."
"Yes," Xu Xian was very happy. The great god was really resourceful.
Yes, he is a god.
"With a little effort, the Liu family will know how powerful I am and listen to me, just like I listened to my sister when I was a child." Xu Xian said very happily.
Xu Xian then prepared to scare the Liu family.
Near his river is Liujia Village.
On this day, Liu Dedi, the head of the Liu family, was going to cross the river to deliver a gift to the county magistrate.
Xu Xian originally wanted to show off.
As a result, when things came to a head, he backed down again.
"I use water to scare people. Isn't this what monsters do?" he said suddenly.
Wen Rensheng didn't want to deal with this fool.
When Xu Xian saw that the great god did not respond, he felt that he was too weak.
Not like a man.
Then he saw two fishermen, one old and one young, working hard to continue raising fish.
"Grandpa, grandpa, we can raise such big fish here, why don't uncle and the others come to raise them?" the grandson asked.
"Oh, if we raise them, they will be robbed by the Liu family, the Yu Gang, and the government officials. If we don't raise enough, we can only raise some secretly and eat some ourselves." The old man sighed.
You can't do a good fish farming business.
I can only look at the river and water in ruins.
It's really a pity.
It was okay if I didn’t know before, but now that I know, who doesn’t feel it’s a pity?
But there was nothing we could do for the time being.
But that's not the case. I saw the Liu family showing off their power and starting to occupy the river section.
It enclosed the place where the river was sluggish.
Yes.
They can't raise it, but the squire can.
What made Xu Xian angry was that they also arrested an old man and a young child and asked them to tell them how to raise fish, which was exactly what Xu Xian taught them.
"These bad guys!"
Xu Xian didn't know the laws of economics. He only knew why the Liu family had exhausted the river and fished. It turned out that they wanted to occupy the river and let their family raise it themselves.
It's like occupying the land and letting the people of your own family breed.
In the Southern Song Dynasty, the population was large and the land was small. It was not easy for tenant farmers to rent land.
So the land rent is extremely high.
Seventy percent or eighty percent of them are there.
If it's not 90%, people will starve to death, and I'm afraid the landlords will also receive 90%.
Generally, it is given to the same clan as a tenant, 50% or 60% is like this.
This is where the master's prestige lies.
He controls land leasing, which is the lifeline of everyone.
When Xu Xian was angry, it happened that the second housekeeper of the Liu family sent the eldest lady of the Liu family back to her parents' home.
A group of people were about to cross the river.
When Xu Xian was angry, he was also a young man.
There are also times when you are angry and cannot control your emotions.
In fact, Xu Xian was angry.
So the river water began to flow directly, and then the fat woman of the Liu family and her entourage were poured with water.
Naturally, I can't go back to my parents' home.
How can there be any reason to go to your parents' house in such a mess?
So he returned.
As a result, the eldest lady of the Liu family contracted the cold that night.
When the head of the Liu family returned from the county seat and learned about this, he was immediately frightened.
Because he thought that this might be the work of the River God.
Otherwise, how could things be such a coincidence?
But when a group of people were crossing the river, the water started to surge?
And everyone said there was no wind.
No one will miss this.
Even though it was a little windy, there were no big waves.
Don’t forget that in this era, there are real gods, such as Guanyin Bodhisattva who even appeared in person.
So the head of the Liu family immediately took people with him and took them to the river overnight.
Then put the pig's head, sheep's head, and chicken.
During the sacrifice, he said that he would never collect money from fishermen again.
In fact, they should use cows, but cows are too expensive and illegal.
Only the government can do this.
So pigs, sheep and chickens were used instead.
Soon after some sacrifices, Xu Xian felt that there was more smoke on his body.
He felt as if he was a little older.
The strength is also a bit greater.
He quickly asked: "Gods and gods, why is my smoke increasing?"
“When you get more smoke, you get stronger, and then you can control bigger rivers.”
"Simply put, you create bigger waves in the water."
When Wen Rensheng said this simply, Xu Xian understood.
Xu Xian then fell into a dream and told him that he had forgiven the other party.
The head of the Liu family was convinced.
After all, he went back and forth twice, so this river god must be efficacious.
It’s just that the eldest lady of the Liu family started to get cold two days later.
Because it was so watered, the weather is now the winter rainy season.
It's a cold time.
It is easy to get wind and cold if you are poured with water at this time.
And it is common for people to die from the cold.
The doctor didn't see well.
Medication doesn't work either.
At this time, Xu Xian suddenly panicked.
"Great God, it's not good, I might kill someone."
Wen Rensheng said speechlessly: "Don't forget that you are a god. Your smoke can not only induce dreams, but can also heal people."
"Can you cure diseases and save people?" Xu Xian's eyes lit up.
It was like a light came on.
"Of course it can save people."
"It's just that it consumes a lot of money for you, so basically no gods would do this."
"You have to remember this," Wen Rensheng reminded.
"It doesn't matter if it consumes a lot, just don't kill anyone."
"Whatever you want." Wen Rensheng naturally knew that Xu Xian was a good old man who was too soft-hearted and too kind.
Although I am depressed sometimes, I don’t have to worry about backstabbing when I help people like this.
Of course you have to be careful.
He will not betray, but he may be deceived into betraying him unknowingly.
Wen Rensheng's wisdom will naturally make him wary.
In fact, to be honest, even if the eldest lady of the Liu family died of a cold, she still deserved it. She had abused those maids a lot.
These days, it is not uncommon for a maid from a poor family to die in a wealthy family.
If Xu Xian knew what this lady had done, he might not be willing to save her anymore.
Of course, as long as he is begged, he will still save him.
