The red sky covering the sky

Chapter 196 Chapter 196 Sikong
People gave a specific name to phenomena they could not understand, God.

God, this title exceeds human cognition, but it comes from humans.

There are three types of gods. Innate gods are born naturally from heaven and earth. They are the embodiment and personification of the rules of heaven and earth.

The acquired gods come from different races, whether they are humans, animals, or flowers, but without exception, they all rely on their own practice and the recognition of heaven and earth to gain supreme power.

There is another kind of God. They are not the natural embodiment or personification of heaven and earth. They are the oldest gods. You cannot see them and they will not respond to you, but they do exist.

He appears in the world and wanders among rivers and mountains, but he does not accept people's sacrifices. He treats everything equally.

This kind of god is the incarnation of the natural disasters of heaven and earth. They do not have a material body or a fixed image. They are a natural law.

Such gods are the will of heaven and earth, and they are the most original principles of heaven.

Raging and arrogant water, never-ending heavy rain, monstrous water vapor and the smell of earth fill every corner of the world.

Although these currents are violent, the water has no permanent shape. While they are impacting the dam, they are also following the shape of the dam and heading towards the East China Sea.

"It can succeed! The river will fall asleep again!"

People with the Chong clan looked at the raging river in front of them, feeling excited and excited, because the anger of the river had not yet broken through the dams on both sides, and it could only vent its anger helplessly and furiously towards the boundless East China Sea.

So, go, go into the boundless ocean, roll around, and do whatever you want. People of the Chong family looked at the East China Sea at the end of the river, with proud smiles on their faces. This is a victory for the human race. They defeated the oldest gods with their human power.

But at this time, another change occurred in the river. A violent shock wave came. A yellow belt appeared on the surface of the fast river. That was a wave.

On the waves, a handsome young man came on the turbid waves, flanked by two white divine dragons, riding on the waves and emptying them.

"With the Chong family, the river will collapse and never stop, the deepest abyss will be dug, the ice and snow in the western sky will melt, and hundreds of rivers will merge into the river, which will turn into a disaster! If we don't leave now, we will wait until later!"

The young man rode the waves and scolded the Youchong clan members along the river. When Gun saw this man, the smile that had only appeared on his face for many years disappeared in an instant, and he became panicked.

Because this young man is called Bing Yi!
Bing Yi, the God of the Great River, this god was from the time of Emperor Fuxi.

At that time, the river had overflowed. Although it had not caused a flood that submerged the world, it was flowing freely on the earth without restraint. Bingyi lost his footing and drowned in the river. His hatred was so overwhelming that he alarmed the Emperor Fuxi. .

Emperor Fuxi pitied his plight and was worried about the troubles of the river, so he resurrected him and made him the god of the river to restrain the river and prevent future generations from doing what he did.

Bingyi did not disappoint Fuxi. After he became a god, he did restrain Dahe for a period of time, but after all, he was not a great magical person. Everything he had was given by Fuxi, the Emperor of Heaven, and he could not restrain Dahe forever.

But he still made great contributions. After he became a god, the river flowed in an almost fixed channel, and no longer roamed the land wantonly.

"Uncle Chong! The embankment collapsed!"

Just when Gun heard Bingyi's scolding and his expression changed drastically, a panicked voice came from afar.

"Impossible, the river has entered the sea, and the water will slow down. It is impossible for the dam to collapse again." Gun shouted angrily, turning around to rush to the place where the dam collapsed.

When Bingyi heard this, he flew into the air with his white dragon, stepped on the dragon's head, looked at Chong Bo Gun, and said loudly.

"Chong Bogun, you are too arrogant. This flood is unusual. This time, it is the wrath of heaven and earth!"

"The ice and snow on the high mountains in the west have melted into rivers. When I entered the abyss, I saw that Gonggong had dug a gap. I also saw Zhu Rong killing Gonggong and Xiang Liu, but I was still helpless about the gap."

"The battle between the two caused the abyss to tremble, the abyss water surged, rivers rose from the plains, the mountains turned into isolated islands, hundreds of rivers merged into the river, and thousands of rivers rose up. The flood will turn into a "disaster". Even if the river embankments are strong, How can it be compared with the "disaster" that engulfs the world..."

"This is the roar of heaven and earth, the general trend of nature, and the wrath of the most ancient god!"

A hundred miles away from Gun, the river had collapsed the embankment. The speed of the water suddenly increased sharply. The water rushing down instantly was like a giant ax that split the sky. The powerful force split the foundation of the river embankment in one fell swoop. The water pressure tore the gap apart, and all the riverbanks for hundreds of miles here turned into yellow dust and dissolved in the water.

The water flow was like a tethered beast, completely breaking free from its shackles, breaking open the dam, and pouring into the river bank unstoppably.

When the water of this big river has been guided into the sea, its potential energy is about to be released, and the river is about to fall asleep again.

The complete collapse of the dike here shattered not only the soil and the dike, but also Gun's method of controlling the water and his firm will.

"Hurry up!"

The many tribes who were ordered to come to control the water were all elites. They rode the wind and the sea, carried huge stones on their backs, and carried bags of soil, sand and gravel, and kept smashing them into the water.

The embankment built by Gun was of earth and stone structure. Compared with the water-proof wall of wood and earth structure, this kind of embankment was very strong.

With huge stones as the backing, a solid wall of sand, stone and earth was built to restrict the water flow and flow according to the river bed.

However, this kind of embankment is only suitable for regular floods. Once a large flood exceeds the standard, the sudden increase in water level will overflow the top of the embankment. With its pervasive characteristics, it will penetrate into the embankment body and destroy the stability of the embankment. , separating the earth and stone that were originally tightly bound together, so that they could not withstand the erosion of the flood and collapsed.

Nowadays, the channels of the great river are very disordered. Although Bingyi has restrained them into almost fixed channels, the former river channels still exist.

The existence of rivers gives water a place to flow. This power is extremely chaotic, but it gathers in the river and continues to spread irregularly in all directions. This results in the loss of the main river's ability to pass water.

The consequence is that before the water flow in front has time to pour out, the water flow behind has already caught up, making the water level higher and accumulating more energy in the water flow. Once this energy is released, it will be like Rolling stones in the mountains, fire in the mountains and forests.

Gun had been controlling floods for many years. He imagined the power of floods to be very high, and the dams he built were also very high and strong, like mountains.

Facts have proved that his move was right. The previous floods did not cause disaster. Instead, they were docilely restrained in the river and flowed into the East China Sea.

The solid earth-rock embankment provided protection to countless tribes on both sides of the river, just like two powerful gods separating the two sides of the river. Therefore, Gun was praised by countless tribes.

But he only built dams without combing the river channels, which caused the power to be dispersed. The water in the river continued to accumulate on its own and did not get a quick release.

Moreover, he also underestimated the flood this time. This was the power that had been accumulated since the Battle of Zhulu. Now that it was released, the water at the source far exceeded the water entering the sea.

Gun rushed over as quickly as possible, but faced with the collapsed dam, he had no other option except taking out soil to repair it. The water level in the river was still rising crazily, and his soil would eventually be used up. when. …

On the land on both sides of the river, some tribal people looked up at the mountain-like river embankment in the distance. They saw that the river embankment that had protected them for several years collapsed!

The giant yellow dragon roared, roaring and submerging the farmland, and then came in front of them without stopping for a moment. From then on, this tribe completely disappeared from the world.

In the ups and downs of the water, an object that emits a little bit of light keeps rising and falling. It is the god of this tribe and the object of their sacrifice. Now he is no longer solemnly placed in the center of the tribe, but is floating in the water. It drifts away with the current and eventually disappears.

"What is Xiangyao's water doing? There is water accumulation upstream, why don't they stop it?!"

As expected, Gun remembered that he had handed over the water flow upstream to Xiang Yao's Shuizheng and asked him to observe the accumulated power of the water flow. However, until now, the speed of the water was getting faster and faster, and there was still no news from the upstream side. .

The Xiangyao clan was originally a subordinate tribe of the Gonggong clan. Xiang Liu came from this tribe and was the leader of the Xiangyao clan.

However, due to the flood caused by Gonggong in the Shaohao era, the Xiangyao family did not dare to risk the disapproval of the world, so they surrendered to the Emperor Shaohao.

As a subsidiary of the Gonggong clan, the Xiangyao clan is naturally also a good expert in water control. Therefore, during this special period when Gonggong rebelled again and Xiang Liu, the ancestral god of the Xiangyao clan, joined the rebel camp, they still occupied Emperor Shun's position. important position in the water conservancy department of the times.

Just because although the Xiangyao family worships Xiangliu as a god, it is because Xiangliu is the ancestor of the Xiangyao family, and as a fierce god, Xiangliu is a man-eating evil god who has no regard for the life and death of his descendants.

And the Xiang Yao family would not sacrifice to a god who could not protect the tribe, but needed a steady stream of blood sacrifices for humans and animals. Even if he was their ancestor and had Xiang Liu's blood flowing in his body, he still could not break this rigid relationship. .

Therefore, Emperor Shaohao accepted their allegiance, and Emperor Shun also asked them to help Gun control the floods. This is why Gun handed over the upper reaches of the river to them.

"Uncle Chong, it's not good, Xiang Yao can't hold on any longer! He said the water flow has gotten out of his control!"

When Gun heard the news, his head suddenly felt as if he had been hit hard by a stick, and he almost fell down. Xiang Yao's current Shui Zheng is a very powerful shaman, and is the strongest besides the water gods. He can control it. Water witch.

He placed Xiang Yao's water in the upper reaches of the river, hoping that Xiang Yao's water would sort out the accumulated flow energy of the river. But now Xiang Yao said that he could no longer control the current, so how could Gun Gun not be surprised.

Gun strode forward with thick smoke billowing from his body, like a divine dragon. He was also a great witch himself. He communicated with the ancestors of the Chong family and controlled the power of earth.

Halfway along the road, Gun saw the huge figure on the embankment of the river.

It has nine heads and the body of a snake. It is blue-grey in color and reaches a height of thousands of feet. It rises in the wind and avoids water vapor.

This is the divine form of blood.

Xiang Yao's water is stimulating blood and manifesting divine features. He is communicating with heaven and earth, using his blood magical power. The turbulent water vapor between heaven and earth is firmly suppressed by him. The water flow is under his control and is tightly suppressed in the river. among,
"Isn't this enough to hold on?!"

When Gun saw this, he became furious. This Xiangyao family actually conveyed false information.

When Xiangyao's Shuizheng saw Gun's arrival, several Xiangyao's shamans around him took over and continued to stabilize and sort out the turbulent water vapor between heaven and earth. He transformed into humanoid size, still manifesting his divine appearance, and came to Gun in front of.

"You see, the water vapor between heaven and earth is constantly rioting. These vapors no longer obey our orders and are no longer restricted by us. If the water vapor is unstable, the water cannot stop."

"Chong Bogun, I have told you long ago that your river embankments are useless. Now I am telling you that you will either ask a water god or a Qi practitioner who consumes water vapor to suppress the water vapor, or I will dig up the embankment and release it. Water power!”

The nine heads of Xiang Yao's Shui Zheng spoke at the same time, creating artificial echoes.

Gun heard this and became furious: "Do you want to listen to what you are saying! Once the embankment breaks, countless creatures on both sides of the strait will be destroyed. What do you want to do, Xiang Yao!"

When Xiang Yao's Shui Zheng heard this, all nine heads were furious, and he immediately retorted:
"It is useless to waste the water you have managed for so many years! If you don't break the dike now, the disaster from the abyss is already on the way. When He comes, it will be useless even if you want to break the dike. Break the dike now and release the power of the water. , sacrificing some of the living beings and preserving the majority of the living beings is the way to success!"

"You want to break the embankment, unless I die. As the Sikong of the world, the Emperor of Heaven asked me to control the water, which means that the lives of the creatures on both sides of the river are in my hands. I will not let them lose their lives!" Gun bit. Teeth, growled lowly.

"Pedantry! Nowadays, only by sacrificing some of the living beings can we save the majority. By doing this, you are not only betraying the trust of the Emperor of Heaven, but also being irresponsible to the living beings on both sides of the Taiwan Strait!" After hearing this, Mrs. Xiang Yao said with unabated anger.

"Xiang Yao! I am Sikong! If I say it can't be done, it can't be done! I have breath soil, so the river will not collapse!" Gun shouted.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yao's Shui Zheng burst into laughter and said:

"Okay, okay! You are Sikong. Then when the disaster comes, the flood breaks the embankment, the river breaks free completely, and the world turns into a Zeguo, Chong Bo Gun! Just be prepared to die to apologize!"

"When the time comes, even if the Emperor of Heaven spares you, all the people in this world will not spare you. I am waiting to see how you die!"

Seeing that Gun's oil and salt were not coming in, Xiang Yao's water management suddenly stopped. Anyway, as the main force in water control, all the responsibilities were borne by Gun. He was not the one who died, so he didn't want to say anything more.

So Xiang Yao turned around and left, but instead of returning to the embankment, he regained his Qianzhang appearance and crushed towards the lower reaches of the river.

When Gun saw this, he immediately said angrily: "Where you want to go, follow my orders!"

However, Xiang Yao's Shui Zheng could not move his head, and still crushed the earth, forming a ravine, and shouted:
"I want to listen to your orders, but I don't want to die. I will follow this path into the sea and open up a new river channel. In this way, even if the river bank collapses, part of the water power can be released, reducing losses and saving some lives!"

The Xiang Yao clan walked away, leaving behind a winding ravine nearly a hundred feet wide, leaving Chong Bo Gun in a panic.

Although he is the apparent top leader of the water conservancy department, the tribes that make up the water conservancy department have their own selfish motives. Even if he is Sikong appointed by the Emperor of Heaven, he cannot command everyone.

Here, strength must speak for itself after all, and Xiang Yao's Shui Zheng is not weaker than him.

Gun would not agree to Xiang Yao's proposal to break the dike, and all the tribes present were also silent.

They are not so selfless and unwilling to use Xiang Yao's methods. They are unwilling to abandon their own tribe.

Because they have lived along the river for generations, once the embankment bursts, their people and homes will be submerged.

Moreover, if one part of the embankment fails to be breached, a second part may have to be breached. They do not dare to gamble, and they will not gamble.
