After dealing with these matters, Zhao Fu planned to rest for a while, as the recent matters had been giving him quite a headache.
However, soon, more reports came from various places.
In Dongyue County, thick, dark clouds covered the sky, not revealing a single crack. It was as if they were about to press down from the sky, giving off a very oppressive feeling. The wind also started to howl, causing the trees to sway.
Rumble!
A bolt of lightning tore through the sky, followed by the sound of thunder. Following this, heavy rain began to pour down.
The commoners did not pay much mind at first, thinking that it was just normal rain. However, after raining for half a day, it did not seem to be weakening at all. The river had become a dirt-yellow color, and it was rising even more quickly.
Some places around the City started to accumulate water, and more and more of it started to accumulate.
The commoners started to worry; after living here for so long, this was the first time they had seen such heavy rain. If this continued, it would definitely cause a flood.
An ordinary-looking, well-built man held a raincoat and a bamboo hat and prepared to go out.
Seeing this, the woman asked curiously, "My son's father, where are you going in such heavy rain?"
The man said, "My son's mother! This rain might cause a flood, and if that's really the case, we have to report this to the imperial court. "
The woman said worriedly, "The rain is too heavy; let's wait for the rain to lessen before going out!"
The man angrily rebuked, "How can we wait for something related to the commoners' safety? As the Observer here, I was recommended by many commoners, and I have the trust of the imperial court and His Majesty. How can I let them down?"
Hearing this, the woman lowered her head. She understood this, but she felt quite wronged.
The man put on his raincoat and cloak and led a few people to a nearby village. The situation was not looking good, and some of the lower areas were filled with water, forming a lake. Some of the trees in some places were also submerged.
This threatened the nearby villages, and some of the farms had already been submerged. If this went on, the villages would also be submerged, and the villagers living here would be in trouble.
The man immediately said to the people behind him with a serious expression, "We can't continue like this. Evacuate the villagers through the teleportation formation and report this to the city lord. Let him report this to the imperial court."
In Fangsan County, the common people behaved as usual. There were peddlers doing business on the streets, passers-by walking, customers who wanted to buy things, and people who sat in their rooms chatting and laughing. Everything seemed so normal.
Suddenly!
The ground began to shake violently, causing all the buildings on the ground to shake more and more violently. Some tiles fell from the roofs, and some pillars and walls collapsed.
The commoners all looked terrified as they dodged. Some people were smashed by the buildings and screamed, while others cried out in fear. The scene was incredibly chaotic.
However, this was not the end. The trembling of the ground became more and more intense, and a massive crack appeared in the ground. Large areas of buildings collapsed, and birds hurriedly flew into the sky, while countless beasts attacked and fled.
Although the tremor only lasted for two hours, it still caused a lot of damage.
Seeing this scene, the County Governor was an elder dressed in scholarly robes. His expression was quite unsightly, and he hurriedly gathered many soldiers to save people and check the extent of the damage. He then immediately wrote a report to the imperial court about what had happened.
Yellow Rock County County
"Daddy! Why is the sun so bright today? The weather's so hot! "a little girl wearing a red dress said as she pulled on the hand of a man carrying a hoe.
The man looked up at the sky. The sun was incredibly bright, and there were no clouds at all. The temperature was much higher than the day before.
What was going on? The man could not understand and could only smile as he said, "Daughter, the weather's too hot today. It's best if you don't follow me to the fields to work. Stay at home and have some fun. I'll ask your mother to cook something delicious for you at night. "
The little girl happily nodded before smiling and running home.
The man went to the fields and started to hoe for a while. Soon, he felt that he couldn't take it anymore. The scorching sun seemed to be burning his skin, and large beads of sweat continuously flowed down his face as his skin started to turn red.
At the same time, the man started to feel thirsty, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. His saliva became quite viscous, and he felt quite dizzy as if he was about to suffer a heatstroke.
The man looked up at the blinding sun in the sky and used his hand to block it. He couldn't understand why the sun was so bright today.
In the end, he couldn't take it anymore and took his hoe to a large tree to rest. It was impossible for him to continue working under such a large sun, so the man thought about it and returned home with his hoe.
It was like this for the entire day. The scorching sun gave off intense rays of light that scorched the ground. There was no wind at all, and the weather was incredibly hot, as if it could be set on fire if one wasn't careful.
At night, the ground was still steaming, but there was still no chill. Many of the villagers couldn't take it anymore and came to the Village Chief's house to ask, "Village Chief! What's going on? Why is it so hot today? I don't think it's been like this before. "
The Village Chief was a skinny middle-aged man, and he said warmly, "Everyone, don't be anxious and don't worry. I just went to the city to ask around, and the surrounding areas are all like this. It's likely that there will be a drought."
What? Drought?
Hearing this, the villagers were sent into an uproar. Disasters were things that people feared, and a drought would cause water sources to dry up and all crops to die.
Everyone started to worry, "If it's a drought, what should we do, Village Chief?"
Facing everyone's gazes, the Village Chief smiled as he said, "Don't worry, the County Chief has already reported this to the imperial court. The Sheriff has already reported this matter to the imperial court. Our respected and great Emperor will definitely resolve this matter. You don't have to worry about anything. "
Hearing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief. Now that their great Majesty knew about this, he would definitely have a way to resolve this matter. The villagers all trusted their Majesty greatly, so they weren't too worried.
Following this, the villagers dispersed and returned to their homes.
The little girl ran over and hugged the man's leg as she asked curiously, "Daddy! Go to the Village Chief and ask if there's anything wrong. "
The man smiled as he replied, "Understood! There might be a drought. "
