Destiny-changing Rain - C38
The crescent moon reflected off the surface of the pond, floating up and down with the waves of the pond. It was tranquil and serene, and the large courtyard seemed even more resplendent against the glazed glass.
The sound of shoes scraping against the floor broke the tranquility of the courtyard and disturbed the dream of the crescent moon in the pond. A person hurriedly walked through the corridor and entered a study. Pu Yishan, who was standing beside the table under the lamp, was seriously looking through a map. He didn’t notice anyone entering the room.
“Manor Lord, Young Master is back.” That person said carefully, afraid to disturb Pu Yishan.
Hearing someone speak, Pu Yishan slowly raised his head and looked at him, “Call the young master to the study.”
That person quickly replied, “I’ll go right away.” The man hurried out again. Pu Yishan was completely engrossed in looking at the map spread out in front of him.
A moment later, a young man with a fan in his hand walked briskly into the study. He was handsome, good-looking, and had a dignified air. His almond-shaped eyes were bright and full of spirit.
He strode to Pu Yishan’s side and called out with a smile, “Dad!”
“Mingjie, you’re back.” When Pu Yishan saw his son, he walked up to him with a smile and said, “Hai, I’ve lost weight recently. It’s all my fault.” Ye Zichen wrapped his arms around his son’s shoulders and looked him up and down. Looking at his son being thinner than money, he felt very guilty.
“Father, your son is strong, so you don’t have to worry.” Pu Mingjie continued to smile as he replied to his father’s guilt.
“It’s been so long since you came back. You went to see your mother, but you thought too badly of her.”
“This is the first time I’ve entered the door. Go back and see your mother.” Pu Mingjie looked at the map on the desk and asked: “Dad, what is this?”
Seeing the joy on his son’s face, the smile on Pu Yishan’s face suddenly turned into worry. He said, “Things are not as simple as we thought.”
“Father, isn’t all of this within our grasp? The wheel is rolling towards us, and it will never miss. Why should you worry about that? ” Park Mingjie’s concern for his father was a mixture of confusion and bewilderment.
“It’s still far from what we expected! The most troublesome thing right now is how to get this dragon vein. ” Pu Yishan said seriously.
“The power of Martial Arts, you are like a fish in water now that you have obtained the position of chief, you cannot summon these reckless brutes. They are strong warriors that can defend a thousand troops.” Park Mingjie confidently dispelled Pu Yishan’s worries.
Pu Mingjie’s message did not cause Pu Yishan’s worry to disappear: “Call? I have only gained their trust, but will these martial artists help you snatch the dragon fountain for no reason?! ”
He hadn’t thought that all of this would be a conspiracy. How could it be Pu Yishan who had obtained the trust of all the heroes of Wu Lin City? In the gathering at the third day of the third month, Liu Feng and the others had slandered Shen Yi all because his actions all these years were to gain the trust of the people in Wu Lin, to obtain the position of the chief, and to borrow the power of Wu Lin to obtain the dragon fountain. Now, why would Pu Yishan say that he wanted to use the power of Wu Lin to obtain the dragon fountain?
At this time, Pu Yishan and his son fell into deep thought. The map on the desk was the exact location of the dragon fountain. From the map, it was easy to tell that the place where the dragon fountain was buried was surrounded by tall mountains and lofty mountains, making it difficult to attack. Pu Yishan looked at the map on the table as he stroked his beard with one hand while Pu Mingjie paced around the study, deep in thought. The fan in his right hand continuously tapped his left palm.
Suddenly, Pu Mingjie opened his eyes and muttered: “We can’t summon the entire martial arts world, but the commoners can.” A happy smile appeared on his face, as if he was satisfied with his plan.
“People? “What do you mean?” Pu Yishan, who didn’t know what his son was talking about, asked with doubt.
“Remember the drought fourteen years ago? Father, you are a living Bodhisattva here to save lives. ”
“This drought is the law of the heavens, and right now, this living Bodhisattva is going to be hard to deal with.” Pu Yishan said in a somewhat indifferent manner.
“This drought can destroy the flood of the farmhouse.” Pu Mingjie opened his fan and fanned it a few times before closing it.
“Flood?” Park Yishan did not understand what Park Mingjie meant by the flood.
“Yes, flood.”
“Isn’t this flood controlled by the heavens?”
“Hey, dad, we have the final say on this flood.” Pu Mingjie said with confidence. ” Father, do you know the location of our area? ”
“The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.” Pu Yishan answered with certainty and then mused, “The middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, the flood, and the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.” Suddenly enlightened, he smiled and said, “As your father, I, am already vicious enough. I didn’t expect your son to be even more so.”
This dam was built fourteen years ago after the Great Drought. At that time, when the citizens of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River came back from the life-and-death struggle during the drought, they spontaneously constructed this dam upstream for the sake of no longer being bullied by the heavens. With this dam, people started to irrigate the farmlands.
“Isn’t this all thanks to father’s guidance!?” “Pu Yishan smiled as he replied.” If the citizens cannot pay their taxes, then they will be forced into a corner by the officials. If the citizens don’t live in peace, then who in the martial arts forest wouldn’t resent the officials who oppress the citizens and feed on their flesh and blood, ah, father, you should take this opportunity to call upon the warriors of the imperial court, to seize the dragon veins and say that you are saving the citizens from the fire, and when the time comes, the entire martial arts community will be in high spirits. When the people return to the sea, they will not be able to destroy the so-called iron wall! ” A sly smile appeared on Pu Mingjie’s face. His smile was filled with arrogance as he continued, “This world belongs to the ruthless. This world belongs to the wolves. Those kind sheep can only eat grass and milk, not take power.”
The two of them laughed together. Pu Mingjie stopped his smug smile and said, “Dad, I have an absolute plan. It’s easy to defend against the enemy, but hard to defend, so we can work together from the inside. If we get our men to sneak into the army and catch them off guard, we won’t be able to grab the dragon vein tightly in our hands.”
“That place is tightly guarded and heavily fortified. It would be even harder to get people to sneak in than to climb the sky.”
“No matter how strong the wall is, I can still find a gap.” Pu Mingjie said with confidence.
