The Three Kingdoms: My Wife is a Great and Good Teacher

"The Yellow River has opened, and that will be the great flood after the opening of the river."

Chapter 36 Gu Diao

In the past, the thawing period of the Yellow River's "ice flood" usually started in the upper reaches and extended to the lower reaches. When the water in the upper reaches began to rise, the lower reaches were still frozen, so it was not so terrifying.

The opening of the river this time was directly due to the fact that the entire Yellow River suddenly flashed and heated up, and almost the entire upper and lower sections of the Yellow River thawed together.

The result was that in less than two days, a flood came as if from the sky.

"This... should be able to hold up, right?" Zhang Fei also became worried at this time, "We built the dam so high, what if..."

"We had already anticipated such a big flood, so Zhao Qing raised the height of the dike a lot when he was planning with me to reinforce it." Liu Bei nodded.

"Yes, as long as the previous situation doesn't happen again, everything should be fine." Liu Zhaoqing also nodded.

The previous situation, of course, refers to a large number of fish that disregarded their lives and desperately rammed the river bank.

"Should we go up and guard it?" Zhang Fei asked Liu Zhaoqing, "If there are still so many fish, my second sister and I should be able to kill most of them."

"It's too dangerous." Liu Bei shook his head.

Liu Zhaoqing agreed with Liu Bei's point of view: "General Fei and General Guan's martial arts are unmatched, but General Guan said before that the fish gathered together so abnormally to hit the dam, and there is a high probability that a fierce beast is driving them."

"Fuxi is just an ordinary ferocious beast. If there is a really ferocious beast, I believe the two generals can kill a hundred or a thousand of them. But what about ten thousand or even a hundred thousand?" Liu Zhaoqing said softly.

"What we need to do now is not to kill the almost endless enemies in the river, but to protect the people of the plains."

This was the purpose of Liu Zhaoqing's "Three Steps to Save the People". Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Tian Yu all nodded slightly.

Zhang Fei thought about it and felt that it made sense: "Okay, then my second sister and I will go to those two high slopes to guard them. As the flood is about to hit, if there is an accident with the dam, my eldest sister and Guo Rang can also form a long line to the city and stop most of the beasts from entering the city."

"Thank you for trouble, General Fei and General Guan." Liu Zhaoqing said with a bow.

"Hey, we are all wearing the same pants now, so don't be so polite." Zhang Fei waved his hand, then picked up the Zhangba Snake Spear, jumped onto his black horse, and headed towards the high slope built next to the drainage channel.

Guan Yu and Liu Zhaoqing nodded and walked quickly in the other direction.

The altar was built outside the county town. It is the intersection of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei's left and right places. It is also the highest point and naturally the relatively safest place.

"Zhao Qing, why don't you go up to the city wall?" Liu Bei suggested after thinking about it.

"The tower is hundreds of meters away from here. I don't have the gift of farsightedness, so I can't see the details of the Yellow River." Liu Zhaoqing shook his head, then smiled, "Sister Xuande, don't worry. Even if I'm not as brave as you and your two sisters, I will still run away when I encounter danger, not to mention that Guo Rang is by my side."

Seeing that Liu Zhaoqing insisted on watching the fight on the spot, Liu Bei said no more. Liu Zhaoqing's judgment of the situation was very sharp. With him by his side, Liu Bei felt much more at ease.

Even people like the second and third sisters have established trust in Liu Zhaoqing, and his abilities are beyond doubt.

"Mingsir, Master Zhaoqing, look! The flood is coming!" At this time, Tian Yu spoke.

In just two sentences, the flood that seemed far away in the sky before was already rushing in along the river.

Liu Zhaoqing frowned and stared at the upper reaches of the Yellow River. He was shocked to find that this so-called "big flood" was almost like a tsunami.

The waves were at least as high as three or four stories high, and what was even more terrifying was that the waves were filled with earth and rocks swept up from upstream, as well as a large number of dead fish and insects.

If these things were to pour into Pingyuan City, they would absolutely raze the rammed earth walls to the ground.

Fortunately, the river embankment on the plain side was reinforced to be high enough and thick enough. Liu Zhaoqing and Liu Bei built it according to the river water rise of at least five stories.

When the flood came, apart from the deafening roar like a landslide, it did not break the river embankment on this side of the plain.

"Huh...luckily I managed to hold on." Tian Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Liu Bei also heaved a sigh of relief as he looked at the flood that was surging like an army marching through the sky. He then looked into the distance and wondered, "I don't think I saw any ferocious beasts? Could it be that they are also afraid of this flood?"

Liu Zhaoqing looked into the distance, thought for a moment and shook his head: "It shouldn't be. Sister Xuande and Guo let you see that there are a lot of bricks and clothes in the flood waves. If you look closely, you can even see a lot of... blood red."

His tone gradually became serious: "Since the water of the Yellow River can be dyed red, I think the upper reaches must have been severely affected by the disaster. The ferocious beasts that took advantage of the chaos of the Yellow River may still be "enjoying" it in the upper reaches and have not yet come to the plains..."

This speculation also made Liu Bei and Tian Yu feel cold.

"Alas, it was indeed too sudden. The Yellow River suddenly changed and broke open in less than two days. Even though we sent pigeons to send messages to the counties upstream and downstream, they had no time to prepare." Liu Bei said with a sigh.

“I don’t know how many lives of people living along the river will be taken by this catastrophe.”

"Fortunately, Master Zhaoqing and Master Ming are here, otherwise there would be countless casualties in Pingyuan." Tian Yu also nodded and said with lingering fear.

At this moment, a burst of clear and intensive bird calls came from afar.

Everyone was startled.

"This mandarin duck-like sound...is a fish." Liu Bei walked up to the altar and looked upstream.

Although the great flood has passed, the real danger has not yet arrived. The chaos of ferocious beasts and waves that followed will be the real "Yellow River Rebellion".

Liu Zhaoqing's face was serious. If the previous flood was the "white line", then the fish coming from upstream were like a dark cloud.

The river bank can stop the flood, but it cannot stop the winged carps. Although a large number of carps swim downstream and pass through the plains, many of them head directly for the county town of Pingyuan.

Zhang Fei, who had been waiting there, took a deep breath, gathered his strength, and shouted loudly.

Countless fish fell to the ground again like fallen leaves.

Then, a large number of remaining silver carps seemed to be frightened and turned around and flew towards the river bank.

"Are you scared?! Hahaha!" Zhang Fei laughed when he saw this.

But the next second, Liu Zhaoqing looked into the distance and said in surprise: "There is something in the sky behind the fish..."

Although he hadn't seen clearly what those things were, Liu Zhaoqing immediately realized one thing: "No! Those fish are not afraid of Zhang Fei, something is chasing them!"

"Wooooooooooooo! Woooooooo!"

The next moment, a burst of overwhelming crying came from afar.

This gave Zhang Fei a big shock: "What the hell is this? Why is there a kid crying?!"

"The baby is crying, it came from the Yellow River, it can fly..." Liu Bei thought for a moment, and was stunned, "It's the Gu Diao!"

"Gu Diao..."

As soon as Liu Zhaoqing read out the name, its information appeared in his eyes instantly.

【Gu Diao】

【Wu: 132】

【Wisdom: 89】

【Body: 150】

【Charm: 13】

【Heavenly Gift: Gu Huan】

[A vicious beast that looks like an eagle but has horns, sounds like an infant, and eats people]

At this moment, Liu Zhaoqing discovered that a large number of Gu Diao in the distance were actually looking directly at him.

The huge beasts had sinister eyes emitting a dark light, and a condensed invisible fear gathered together, which was transmitted to Liu Zhaoqing's eyes even from a thousand meters away.

For a moment, Liu Zhaoqing felt as if he was hit by something. He felt dizzy, nauseous, and his heart was pounding.

At this moment, a burning sensation suddenly appeared in my chest, and the discomfort disappeared instantly.

Liu Zhaoqing looked down and saw that the book in his arms was emitting a faint golden light.

It was it that dispelled the Gu Diao's illusion.

"Could it be that... the beasts always chase me because of this book?"

Chapter 37: Feather destroys the eagle, the dragon appears

"Master Zhaoqing, please step back!" Tian Yu picked up the horn-end bow, pulled the bowstring to its full extent and pointed it at the group of "dark clouds" flying towards them.

Purple light surrounded his forearms, the bow was charged to full with half a moon, and he released the string and shot an arrow.

The arrow, dragging a streak of purple light, hit the group of Gu Eagles a thousand meters away at an extremely fast speed. In the blink of an eye, the "purple line" sank into the "dark cloud", and dozens of Gu Eagles fell to the ground in an instant.

This surprised Liu Zhaoqing greatly. He didn't see it clearly the last time he encountered the fish, so he didn't expect Tian Yu to be so brave.

Born in the north, Tian Yu experienced the invasion of northern tribes for many years and mastered martial arts. He is definitely one of the best people in the world.

However, even though this arrow was so powerful, Liu Bei and others, and even Tian Yu himself, did not show any joy, but instead frowned.

"No, there are too many." Liu Bei looked grim.

The Gu Diao covered the sky and the sun. Some of them flew close to the water over the Yellow River, some dived into the water to prey on fish, and more of them gathered in the sky and flew towards this side.

"The river embankment in Yangping County has not been raised or reinforced. The flood will pour down along the fields, carrying with it a large number of minnows and other aquatic creatures. Those Gu eagles will inevitably follow." Liu Zhaoqing said at this time.

Although the flood has passed the plain, the embankments upstream have been destroyed by the flood. After a while, a large amount of mud and water will definitely flow down the fields from upstream.

Although a large number of drainage channels dug on the fields on this side of the plain can drain most of the flood water, the drainage channels can only drain "floods" rather than "Gu Diao".

"These Gu Diao will eat people. If we let them fly into Pingyuan County like this, the consequences will be disastrous."

Liu Bei naturally knew what Liu Zhaoqing said. She nodded and raised the winding long sword in her right hand.

To the right is where Guan Yu is.

At this time, the group of Gu Diao were already pressing towards the plain, and Liu Zhaoqing discovered that Tian Yu and Liu Bei were both beginning to experience symptoms of dizziness.

"Don't look directly at them!" Liu Zhaoqing shouted quickly.

Liu Bei and others immediately closed their eyes upon hearing this.

The attributes of this Gu Diao are even inferior to those of the Liyu in some aspects. The reason why it is one level higher than the "exotic beast" of the Liyu is entirely due to the gift from God.

Liu Bei had only heard of the appearance of this creature in books and had no idea if it had any other abilities. If Liu Zhaoqing hadn't reminded her, she would have almost fallen into its trap.

However, in this way, when Liu, Guan, Zhang and Tian Yu closed their eyes, the Gu Diao pounced towards Liu Zhaoqing without any pressure.

"Oh no... they are coming!" Liu Zhaoqing gritted his teeth.

Although he had a book to protect him and could keep his mind from being bewitched, he could not protect all the people in the plains.

"Zhao Qing, don't panic. Just leave it to Guan." A calm female voice came from the right.

Guan Yu was seen with his eyes closed, his crescent-shaped sword in his right hand and his long hair stroked with his left hand.

The flood flowed under her feet, and when the Gu Diao was about to reach her, she swung her long sword.

A green crescent burst out from the blade, killing more than a hundred ferocious beasts. Then Guan Yu jumped up to a height of nearly ten meters. He closed his eyes, grasped the hilt of the sword with both hands, twisted his body, spun around, and swung the crescent-shaped sword into the air in front of him.

The long sword directly cut through the torrent, forming a huge green cut mark, and two energy waves spread out from the green cut mark in the middle to both sides.

In an instant, countless corpses of Gu carvings were separated, and their bodies were cut into flat pieces like tofu being cut with a thread, and fell into the flooded ground like food.

The sound of splashing water was endless, lingering in the ears for a long time like firecrackers.

Tens of thousands of Gu Diao were killed by Guan Yu's single attack.

What the hell is this... the ultimate golden super invincible general? ?

Liu Zhaoqing opened his mouth wide. He was finally sure that Guan Yu really didn't use even one iota of his strength to kill those five ducks.

"The Guanbie tribe is still so brave." After being stunned for a moment, Tian Yu couldn't help but sigh.

Liu Bei heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the group of Gu Diao being annihilated, and then he thanked his God: "Fortunately, these Gu Diao only know how to attack from the front. If they flew around and entered Pingyuan County from the back, then Pingyuan would be in real danger."

Upon hearing this, Tian Yu nodded in agreement. Only Liu Zhaoqing knew that there was a reason for this.

The reason is the book in his chest.

It was like some kind of bait made of delicious food from heaven, attracting these monsters to come and peck at it frantically from afar.

But...why is this so?

Isn't this a "human book"? How can it also attract strange and ferocious beasts?

Moreover, the human book... can see the attributes of strange beasts, which is also strange.

Liu Zhaoqing was certain that he had only grasped the tip of the iceberg of the secrets of the human book.

It's like a primitive man one hundred thousand years ago got a modern firearm, but used it as a stick to fight the enemy tribe.

What exactly does the so-called "human" represent? Doesn't it refer only to "human beings" and all "living" beings in the world?

"Fortunately, my second sister is brave. We almost fell into the trap of this Gu Diao just now. Fortunately, Zhao Qing reminded us." Liu Bei said thankfully.

"Yes, Master Zhao Qing is really knowledgeable. He can tell at a glance that this beast is not an ordinary ferocious beast." Tian Yu also agreed with Liu Bei's words.

Liu Zhaoqing opened his mouth and was about to answer, but suddenly, a violent tremor came from his chest.
