Chapter 28 Teng Jiao(2/4)
"I don't believe it!"
"You should believe it." Feng Xiaoya sighed, staring at the vast ocean below, and the creatures were in trouble. "When she appears in front of you, you should know that she is not Mrs. Ruyi."
Mrs. Ruyi will only escape by herself.
Mrs. Ruyi ignored the lives and deaths of the people of Luwan.
Mrs. Ruyi will kill Yuan Su as soon as possible to relieve her hatred.
But Qiu Jiang appeared in this place and appeared in front of Yuan Su, but she was to save Luwan - just to save Luwan.
No one can continue to disguise himself during life and death - this is something Feng Xiaoya had proven at sea last month.
Yuan Su couldn't speak for a long time.
He thought he had witnessed a lie with his own eyes.
But now, that so-called lie, like the Luwan City at this moment, was washed away by the flood again.

Yi Fei led everyone to the outside of the city. The Divine Cavalrymen stationed there watched the city gate be broken and were very upset. The leader immediately rode forward and scolded, "Who are you, how dare you disobey the imperial edict and go out privately..." Before he finished speaking, his head flew out, but was chopped by the archer leader.
The Divine Cavalry Army was in an uproar. Just as they were about to riot, Yi Fei immediately stepped forward and spread the flags on the ground, saying in a deep voice: "Yun Di plotted against the emperor, and together with Yuan Su, they blew up the palace, kidnapped the queen and fled, and now they disappeared. You and others intercepted the city in this trapped city. Could it be their accomplices?"
The Divine Cavalrymen looked at each other and one of them retorted: "Nonsense! We are clearly here under the order of the Queen to prevent anyone from making trouble while choosing a husband to feast!"
"Then why do we need to seal the city gate?"
"The boss said it was just a temporary lockdown."
"Then did he say when will the ban be lifted?"
"this……"
"You have sealed the city gates, so how can you spread the news outside after the feast inside end?"
"this……"
"Also, do you know that at this moment, it is now! The sea water in the southwest water has flowed backwards, and has washed away the embankment and flooded into Luwan City?!"
Everyone was shocked. Some family members were in the city and rushed into the city to look for someone. In addition, the boss was gone, and the rest of the people had no idea for a while.
Yi Fei said: "I am Yi Fei, and the queen is missing now, which means that I am the most respected within the royal family. All the soldiers obey the orders!"
The Divine Cavalry Army was even more shocked. Ordinary people didn't know, but they knew more or less. The Queen used the prince's army to kill the second prince, forced the third prince away, and then did not know how to kill the prince, so that Yan Biyi and the three kingdoms supported her ascendance to the throne, so that she became the queen. Over the past year, although it was not said that the third prince had not been beaten into a traitor and had not been arrested publicly, they were actually enemies. But now, there was something wrong in Luwan City, and the third prince suddenly rushed out and said that the queen was missing and wanted to listen to him. This was too...
The four words "usurpation of power and seizing the throne" flashed through everyone's heart. But before they could think about it, one of them pointed to the direction inside the city gate and exclaimed: "Water! Really, really, really, the tsunami is coming!"
The tsunami is coming—
In the face of the disaster of nature, the dispute between humans is no longer important in an instant. A soldier of the Divine Cavalry made a quick decision and knelt down and said, "Third Prince! Give the order quickly!"
"Select ten teams, go to the surrounding towns to report the news, and arrange evacuation and refuge. You, go to Fengxian, Luobian, and Dukou, and garrisons from the three places of Dukou immediately bring supplies to rescue people!"
"What should they do if they don't listen to us?"
Yi Fei gritted his teeth. His banner was useful in the tsunami, but when he arrived at a peaceful place, he would not pay any attention to it. He could not cut off the head leader's head like he said just now.
While anxious, a voice said, "We have an imperial edict."
Yi Fei turned his head in surprise and saw Xue Cai who was exhausted.

In the library, the old man watched the tide rushing, barely crossing the third floor. On the top of the fourth floor, they watched the houses around him that were not as high as here were flooded. There was a restaurant, three floors high, with many refugees crowded on it, and the two buildings were not far away, so they could see each other's figures. However, in the blink of an eye, the tide rushed over and they were gone, and the people here were still alive.
For a moment, great fear and despair swept across all the living people. The old man grabbed the hand of the Kinmen disciple and said tremblingly: "Your gentleman, your gentleman..."
"Sir, I don't know how to do martial arts." The Kinmen disciple lowered his eyes, then put his hands together, and silently pressed his forehead.
Seeing this, the old man put his hands on his forehead and prayed silently...

There was a whimper of a child in a loft about three streets away from them.
Pin Congmu ran right below, stopped after hearing the sound, thought for a while, and pushed the door open and entered.
Walking up the stairs, the items inside were scattered all over the floor, and the owner seemed to have evacuated. He asked tentatively, "Who is crying?"
The sound disappeared immediately.
Pin Congmu said softly: "Don't be afraid. I'm here to save you. Where are you?"
In a messy attic, there was a Buddhist niche, and the curtain below moved.
Pin Congmu quickly stepped forward and opened the curtain. After seeing the scene inside, he couldn't help laughing: "It's you, little guy." He reached out and hugged the other person out - it turned out to be a cat with a fur all over his body and was trembling with fear.
Pin Congmu gently stroked the cat's chin and said, "Okay, it's okay, come with me." As soon as he took a step, the tower shook violently. The cat screamed and jumped out of his hand, leaving three blood marks on his hand.
Pin Congmu shouted: "Don't leave!"
The cat hurriedly ran down the stairs, and then ran back quickly - following it, there was water.
The water didn't go to the attic in an instant, and the cat was caught by Feng Chengmu. Then he carried its neck and crawled out of the only window in the attic and climbed onto the roof.
Looking around, the surroundings were already flooded by sea water. If he hadn't heard the sound of a cat just now, he went upstairs to take a look, he had been washed away from the street at this moment.
Pincong hugged the cat in his arms with lingering fear and sighed: "It turns out you are saving me... Thank you, little guy."

When Qiu Jiang jumped onto the city wall of the North City Gate, her heart suddenly twitched and almost fell from above. She tried her best to reach out and grabbed the bulge on the city wall before jumping up again.
When it landed, the right knee took the lead and lost control and hit the bricks and stones hard.
She had to bow her body, take a bottle of medicine from her arms, and take a green pill, which one she had forced to feed Yuan Su before - although this thing looks quite similar to Yishu's aphrodisiac pill, it actually treats her internal injuries.
Her health has not recovered so far, and it is barely supported by medicine. If she cannot rest, it will only continue to deteriorate. Unfortunately, her luck is really bad. Although she had known that Yi Shu would cause trouble on the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth month, she didn't expect that such a big thing would happen.
You know, the three kings gathered at night and the domestic chaos was calmed down in just one night.
Even if this tsunami retreats in a few hours, it will leave a long disaster. Moreover, I don’t know if Luwan City can be preserved.
In fact, everything has nothing to do with her.
Although she was taking Mrs. Ruyi to get rid of Yishu, Mrs. Ruyi herself did not come and still hid in Lanyan City.
In other words, she is free at this moment.
She could escape back to Mrs. Ruyi as soon as possible. She could also find a safe place to recuperate from the wounds, or even take the opportunity to return to the country of Bi. She would not have to drag her sick body to rush to Nanyan. She would not have to care about the life and death of the people of Cheng who had nothing to do with her.
However, Yuan Su's accusation was heavy on her heart like a curse, and there seemed to be two eyes in the dark, staring at her with malicious intentions—
"Today's Luwan disaster and the death of 30,000 people is not the Queen's fault, it is you! It is your Ruyi Gate... sin."
"I have to pay it back after taking someone else's stuff."
She swallowed a pill and felt it was not enough, so she poured out the second one. After taking the third one, her body kept shaking due to the pain.
"I'll pay it back! I'll pay it back! I'm paying it back now..." Qiu Jiang murmured, gritted her teeth and stood up, took a breath, grabbed the silk and climbed down the city wall, and rushed to the south.

This disaster in Luwan was later called "Tengjiao Ri".
There are three meanings.
That day, the long-lost third prince Yifei reappeared in everyone's sight, like a dragon leaping again in the rain.
On that day, Luwan experienced a catastrophe, but the people in the city took refuge and evacuation in an orderly manner, assisting each other, and finally half of them survived, which was the most surviving in the records related to the tsunami.
That day, the southwest area of Luwan was completely broken from other areas and turned into ruins, but raised the other areas three feet high. In this way, from the map, the snake-shaped Cheng Guo broke a piece of his tail, which seemed to be leaping and preparing to take off.
The slogan of the Third Prince Cheng’s words “What are you afraid of? We are dragons” spread throughout the four countries for a time.
As Pin Congmu said, this tsunami was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster. Therefore, it came suddenly and walked quickly. Soon after the sea rushed out of Luwan City, it retreated exhausted, leaving behind devastated ruins and people who survived the disaster.
Materials from Fengxian and other places were quickly delivered under the order of the Queen's imperial edict. The troops from the surrounding towns and cities gathered in Luwan one after another. Under the leadership of Yifei, countless people even came to help the people rebuild their homes. They heard that something happened in Kyoto and rushed to help.
The Queen's imperial edicts were sent to all parts of the country one by one, with food and grass, teams of people coming to this ruin one after another.
At sunset, a simple carriage left Luwan and rushed through the flooded mud and headed to the south.
The people who drove the car were Meng Buli and Jiao Buqi, and the people in the car were Feng Xiaoya, and Yuan Su.
However, in just two days, his whole body had undergone tremendous changes, from being arrogant to decadent and depressed, from being forbearing and self-sustaining to being disgusted with everything.
Feng Xiaoya no longer tied him up, but he seemed to have no strength to walk.
That day, he was tied to the railing by Qiu Jiang, watching the sea retreat, and the surviving people started to move again like ants after the rain. The second destruction he had expected never came. From then on, he knew that Qiu Jiang had succeeded, and she closed the eyes of the formation in Nanyan in time.
But she didn't come back.
Therefore, Feng Xiaoya was able to meet with Meng Buli and Jiao Buqi, and then went to find her wife without stopping.
Along the way, the official roads were extremely crowded, and people came to provide disaster relief from all directions, including government officials, spontaneous people, young people, and old people.
Because their carriage was from Luwan City and had been stopped several times, passers-by asked Jiao Buqi about the situation in the imperial capital.
Feng Xiaoya sat in the car and suddenly said to Yuan Su: "Why do you think these people are coming?"
Yuan Su ignored it.
To be continued...
