Chapter 409 Flood disaster
The ritual created by Wuji Lao Mother is divided into two stages, with the appearance of the ritual of the mysterious light as the dividing line.
Once the hiding Xuan Light appears, it will penetrate the two realms. At that time, even if the rituals in other worlds are interrupted, it will take a certain amount of time to dissipate.
If it can be continued in the vacuum hometown with corresponding rituals, it can gradually stabilize the mysterious light until the mysterious light meets the requirements of the normal ritual, and then it can descend to another world through the mysterious light.
However, the continuation ceremony of attracting the Xuanguang requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and also takes a considerable time, and it also means that the danger in another world increases.
Because of this, except for the four saints who broke the virtual realm, the other two saints who were originally ranked in front of Schuman were snatched away by Schumann in hesitation.
However, although Shuman expected to encounter danger after descending to another world, he did not expect that a powerful man from the same heavenly realm would slash him as soon as he appeared.
If she hadn't been extremely vigilant, her light skills and body skills were extremely clever, she would probably have killed at least half of her life with that knife.
"The Heavenly Man Realm, and judging from the power of that sword, it is very likely that it will reach the middle stage of the Heavenly Man Realm.
According to the information that my mother stayed in Wuji Palace, there may not be a realm of heaven and man in the general world for hundreds of years, and there are even a handful of realms of Hedao.
As soon as I came, I encountered a mid-stage Tianren Realm. Isn’t it too lucky?
However, if the previous world's guide ceremony was interrupted by that person, and he kept on the island afterwards, it would be reasonable."
Thinking of this, Schuman couldn't help but get out of bed, open the window, look at the rows of houses and alleys outside, and set the first thing to do next:
Find the remaining martial arts inheritors in the world of Lao Mother, or inquire from ordinary people to see what happened here before.
···
In a blink of an eye, it was December of the eighth year of Qianli.
In the past two or three months, the Yu Ministry and the constables at all levels of the yamen have indeed discovered a lot of information related to the three cults and arrested some believers from the three cults, but there is no information in it that can infer the traces of the "Wuji Lao Mother".
Ouyang Ye did not blame the Rain Department and the personnel responsible for handling this matter for this.
Because he understood that if the person who came was Wuji's old mother and wanted to hide, these people would never be able to find them.
The reason why he asked these people to pay more attention to the matters related to the three major cults was that he hoped to discover it as soon as possible after the "Wuji Old Mother" made a big move, that is, when she was about to appear.
Only in this way can the damage caused to Daqian by "Wuji Lao Mother" can be reduced as soon as possible.
Time flies again in the spring of the ninth year of Qianli.
There was a month or two of rain in the north, and there were heavy rains and heavy rains, the water of the Yellow River surged, and the spring flood was critical!
In this world, flood prevention work of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River has also been an important task of the imperial courts of all dynasties.
Because this world has always been in the feudal era, productivity has not been fundamentally improved, and coupled with some human factors, the courts of all dynasties have also been troubled by floods.
The only thing that is better is that this world has the vitality of heaven and earth, and the physical fitness of the people is slightly better than that of the ancient people in Ouyang Ye’s previous life, so fewer people will die in disasters.
However, this does not mean that the affected people will not cause further social unrest after becoming refugees.
A considerable part of the chaos in the world during the Tianyuan period of Dayu was because the Dayu court improperly handled several major natural disasters, which caused the people to be displaced and became refugees, and the disaster relief work was also quite unfavorable. The people who were forced to desperate situations revolt one after another.
In recent years, although the Military Affairs Council has carried out its third Western Expedition first, it has been preparing for going overseas to conquer Yingzhou Island in the past two or three years.
However, the State Council has always focused its work on people's livelihood construction.
Various policies that benefit the country and the people are introduced one by one, so naturally, such an important task as flood prevention in rivers will not be missed.
Therefore, Dagan’s work in river flood prevention has done quite well compared to previous dynasties.
However, natural disasters are often difficult to reverse by human resources, especially in eras where productivity and technology levels are relatively low.
At this time, all the court can do is to minimize losses—
In March, Ouyang Ye was not in Luoyang, Shendu, but personally took charge of the most likely outbreak of the flood, Zhangde Mansion.
However, he is neither the commander-in-chief of flood prevention and disaster relief this time, nor is he the person who is specifically responsible for the affairs. He came here just to stabilize people's hearts.
As for the commander-in-chief of flood prevention and disaster relief this time, his name is Zhao Wenju. He was originally a junior of the Ministry of Works of Dayu. He has a lot of experience in flood prevention and river control.
Although some of the related work he participated in in the late Tianyuan period of Dayu did not end very well, no one dared to deny the positive role he played in it.
As for the bad endings of those jobs, it was almost entirely caused by the corruption and incompetence of most officials in Dayu and the incompetence of officials below.
Therefore, after the Dakan established the capital of Luoyang, he quickly found Zhao Wenju and appointed him as the Minister of Works, specializing in river management and flood prevention.
"Your Majesty, after research by the old minister and other colleagues in charge of flood prevention, the collapse of the river water may be inevitable, and the court must start organizing the people to move away." In a small hall, Zhao Wenju reported to Ouyang Ye alone.
In this regard, Zhao Wenju passed through Ouyang Ye a few days ago, so Ouyang Ye was not surprised and asked: "Can you estimate how long the river water may collapse in the dike? Which places should people move away from?"
Zhao Wenju said: "It is difficult to predict the time when the river collapses. We have at most half a month. As for the people who move away, I think at least the people who move away from Zhangde, Muye, Handan, and Dongpingji Prefectures within 30 miles of the river will be moved away.
As for the people who were unexpectedly thirty miles away, they also need to organize them to move to higher terrain. Only in this way can they reduce casualties and losses when floods hit."
After hearing this, Ouyang Ye thought for a moment and said, "I will activate the emergency communication system of the Rain Ministry later. At that time, the instructions can be transmitted to various prefectures and counties along the river through carrier pigeons within one day. Ten days, but I will only give them ten days to organize the people to move away."
"Ten days?" Zhao Wenju was surprised when he heard this, and then he couldn't help but persuade: "Your Majesty, is this too urgent? The people are already hard to leave their hometowns, and even if the government enforces the policy of relocation, it will be difficult. If the time is limited to ten days, it may cause resentment to the people and even lead to some man-made disasters."
As an official of the former dynasty, Zhao Wenju had seen too many officials causing harm to the people in implementing court policies.
Although the officials of the great cavalry are much better than those of the Dayu, if time is too urgent, it is difficult for the officials to use some cruel means to the people in order to complete the tasks assigned by the Shangguan.
It should be noted that although the big cadre has been changing the relationship between officials and the people, and even their awareness of each other's status, attitudes, and other consciousness issues, after all, it has only been a few years since the founding of the country, and many of the officials have grown up from the previous dynasty. It can be imagined how they will treat the people when the pressure from the superiors is too high.
After hearing Zhao Wenju's words, Ouyang Ye sighed: "Don't I know these things? But we really can't delay them for too long - tell Zhao Qing the truth, I'm very worried that someone would secretly break the dike in advance and cause floods."
