Ziqiu came to inquire about the progress of water control, and Boyu happened to encounter a situation in the flood control, so he introduced to him in detail what happened recently. Ziqiu changed his color and said, "Faced with the Huaize water demon, even the true immortal in the lower realm has no good plans. What will Lord Boyu do?"

Bo Yu said with a serious expression: "Huaize water monster is one of the floods. To eliminate the dangers, it is necessary to control water. To control water is also to control the world. It is the affairs of the people of each tribe. The monster is in the water, but to control water must start from the shore and eliminate the troubles of each tribe first."

Ziqiu: "Do you want to take down those four Bojuns first? But if the handling is not done properly, the water demons have not been eliminated and the divisions have first been in a civil strife, it will be even more difficult to deal with."

Bo Yu: "People's words are like wind, and they are mixed with four different channels; people's hearts are like water, and all the flows return to the clan. Taking down these four Bojuns is to rectify the chaos in the hearts of the people and the failure of the people's customs, and to cut off the evil spirit as the foundation of the disaster. Fortunately, they are good at checking here, and Mr. Ziqiu, you are here, so three days later, you will have to help you."

Three days later, Bo Yu wanted to summon the leaders of various tribes to discuss matters again and plan to deal with the four Bojuns in public. Ziqiu happened to come, so he came to investigate in public, and another country interrupted the prison beasts. Everyone discussed for a long time. Bo Yu was also Ziqiu's uncle and explained a lot of things, which Ziqiu understood one by one.

After almost the discussion here, Bo Yu asked Ao Guang and Shanzha again: "Two masters, I wonder how your injuries are?"

Ao Guang waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. It doesn't delay fighting with others, and you can also go into the water to capture monsters."

Shanzha asked back, "A little injury is not a problem! Do you want to send us to capture those four uncles?"

Bo Yu: "I have this intention. Based on the situation I discovered yesterday, I wonder what kind of cultivation the four Bojuns have?"

Shanzha: "It's just an ordinary person, he has no cultivation and is very capable."

Bo Yu: "Does they have master guards around them?"

Shanzha: "There are indeed guards, but in my eyes they are not a master. They can even be unaware of it when they take action."

At this time, Bo Yu stood up and clasped his fists into the air and said, "Mr. Wu Ming, can you work hard to see if the Xuanzhu is left in those four divisions? If you find that there are masters lurking around those four Bojuns, Shanzha and Ao Guang will find it difficult to succeed. You don't need to help, just remind me by the way."

Wu Ming's voice came, "Don't worry, Lord Bo Yu, I'll go to those four divisions to see if I can find Xuanzhu. If I see any master lurking, or if the four Bojuns are difficult to be captured by two fellow Taoists, I will remind you."

Shanzha and Ao Guang took the order and left. Bo Yu sent someone to call Yunqi and Bo Yi. Yunqi and Bo Yi were on the side of the Tushan tribe's lord these days. Yunqi was responsible for commanding and taught the members to build various equipment and tools to control the water. Bo Yi was on behalf of Bo Yu to count the situation of each department and was responsible for communicating orders and contacting, and temporarily stayed with the leaders of the various tribes who were summoned.

Bo Yu asked Bo Yi to send an order to convene the leaders of various tribes three days later, and this time, he would notify the elders of all tribes who could arrive to arrive as much as possible. In the words of later generations, this was an "enlarged meeting". At this meeting, we should discuss the matter of water control. We should not continue to shirk responsibility. After discussing, we should implement the plan and take formal actions.

No matter what Bo Yu did, the Huaize water demon was there. Not to mention how to deal with the water demon, if the people of each tribe did nothing, it would be absolutely impossible to successfully control the water.

Bo Yu asked Yun Qi to put down what he had done for a while, and quickly made four magic cages, and put forward specific requirements. Yun Qi understood as soon as he heard it, and nodded and said, "Do you want to imprison those four Bojuns? Yun Qi can complete it tomorrow. It is not said that it is strong and difficult to break, but it is impossible to break the cage directly in a hurry to save people."

The clouds rose and built a cage. At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of wind and rain. The wind and rain did not come from Huaize, but from the distance in the other direction, and gradually dissipated near. Yinglong fell from the sky and walked into the hall, and everyone stood up to salute. Yinglong once said to Boyu that if there was anything, you could summon him at any time. Boyu would summon him today.

In terms of fighting against the enemy, Yinglong is a very experienced true immortal. He had participated in the battle to kill Chiyou. But at this moment, he could not see that he had the slightest cultivation and magic power, and he restrained his breath very well. If not, this place would have been a storm. Yinglong nodded to everyone and then flashed and disappeared.

Yinglong did not show up, so that he could restrain his breath better. If necessary, Bo Yu would call him to appear. After Wu Ming came back, these two true immortals could still reminisce about the past, and they had known each other as the old ones.

...

Three days later, the gathering was in a village not far from Tushan. The clans of this village had evacuated, so they put mats in the square in the center of the village, and everyone sat on the ground. In addition to more than 50 leaders of each tribe, nearly 300 clan elders from each village came today, many of whom were specially sent by the Tushan tribe to pick them up from a distance.

So many people could only gather in the open air. The surround curtain was set up on the south side of the square, and a high seat was set up in front of the surround curtain. Of course, Bo Yu sat in the highest position in the middle, and his assistant Bo Yi sat beside him. In the middle of the open space in the square below Bo Yu, another long case was set up. After the case, Ziqiu, who came from Puyang City, was sitting next to the case, and there was a unique auspicious beast next to it.

The auspicious beasts and spirit birds produced by heaven and earth often only exist in legends, and ordinary people will not recognize them at all, but this auspicious beast is an exception. Almost everyone has heard of the Chinese divine beast that has dominated the world. It can be recognized at a glance that this is the Xie Zhu next to Lord Gao Yao.

The fair and strict Sishi Gao Yao is still in Puyang City, but the auspicious beast Xie Zhi has arrived. The person sitting behind the case is his student and assistant Ziqiu. Judging from this attitude, he is going to ask the case in public today, but he doesn't know who to interrogate?

Bo Yu sat at a high place without saying a word, his face was solemn, and he was powerful without anger. In fact, Bo Yu has never paid attention to the authority and stands out for the flood control until now, and has always walked barefoot. But after all, he is a minister of the Chinese flood control. Lord Situ in the court must pay attention to etiquette and majesty in today's occasions, otherwise it will make some people lose their awe.

When asking about the case, there is no need for Bo Yu to come forward personally and let Ziqiu be responsible. Shancha reveals that the original body of the auspicious beast is standing there, and there is no need to send guards to maintain order. Everyone present bowed and saluted before sitting down. Xie Zhi's horn swept through the field, and everyone inexplicably felt like they were seen through from the inside out.

After Xie Zhi glanced at the audience, he closed his eyes and lay there, as if he was asleep. Everyone was confused but did not dare to say anything. The scene became very quiet. At this time, Bo Yi stood up and said, "Lord Bo Yu has controlled the waters of all tribes in the world. He learned that there are monsters in Huaize who are named Wuzhiqi, who call themselves the Huai God, and have caused trouble to harm the people of all tribes for six years.

There was also the Zhonghua Bojun, who was enthroned by the emperor, who did not abide by etiquette and law, did not abide by the alliance, and was willing to be driven by the monster, to harm his tribes internally and to plot against each other externally, which was a disaster for China. Lord Bo Yu has taken down these Bojun today and handed them over to the emperor to investigate the envoy Ziqiu, who was sent by the emperor, to investigate the situation by the Chinese divine beast of the prison."

As they spoke, the four kings of Shangzhang Department, Hongmeng Department, Douhu Department and Lilou Department were suppressed and knelt down in the middle of the open space, with their expressions of horror. They were caught in their sleep for no reason three days ago, and they didn't realize what was going on. Even the guards around them didn't notice the movement.

What else can they end up with the hands of Shanzha and Ao Guang? If Bo Yu hadn't specifically instructed him not to hurt others, he would have been half killed. But Shanzha and Ao Guang were not polite. Although they did not hurt others directly, they were threatened by various means. The four Bojuns were so scared that they almost didn't wet their pants and explained everything they should have to explain.

Private interrogation is one thing, but to formally deal with them, one must make a public judgment, which is also the tradition of various Chinese ministries.

As soon as they saw this scene, everyone was a little confused, and they whispered and talked everywhere. Last time, Lord Bo Yu summoned the leaders of various tribes to discuss matters, but they dispersed in no way. Today, everyone was summoned, and even the elders of the villages and villages were invited, which should be just a conclusion. No one was absent from the leaders of each tribe. It was precisely these four people who had not arrived, but they were unexpectedly arrested by Lord Bo Yu.

Bo Yi said nothing just now, and he directly mentioned the name of Wuzhiqi, and determined that his behavior was a monster who was a disaster. In fact, no one present had seen Wuzhiqi with his own eyes, and most of them had never even heard of this name, but they were more or less aware of the matter of the Huai God.

Tribal villages living on the banks of the Huai River have always worshipped the Huai God since ancient times, which is just a folk custom. However, after this flood, the "Huai God" really emerged. It is said that if he is disrespectful to worship him, he will cause disaster. There are also rumors that only the four major departments, Shang Zhang, Hongmeng, Douhu, and Lilou, were recognized by the Huai God and were qualified to worship him on behalf of the people. However, other tribes would have no chance to "cross" the Huai God.

As the truth is, other tribes will always be hit by storms by the water. Not only will the losses be heavy, but many people will die, only Shang Zhang, Hongmeng, Douhu, Lilou and Tushan are all fine. Although Tushan tribe did not suffer any losses, it also retreated its subordinates to the back of Tushan. It is no longer close to the shore of Huaize on weekdays, and only the other four major parts have not been adversely affected.

Under such circumstances, many small tribes began to rely on the Shang Zhang, Hongmeng and other four tribes, and were even gradually annexed by them. These four tribes also took the opportunity to occupy a large area of ​​land on the shore of Huaize.

The remaining tribes could only try to stay away from the waterside. They were both afraid and helpless about this situation. They were both envious and jealous of the four major divisions, including Shang Zhang, but they couldn't say anything. Who said that these four divisions were lucky and favored by the Huai God?

Today, as soon as Lord Bo Yi spoke, he trembled the inside story in two sentences. It seems that Lord Bo Yu has found out the background of the so-called Huai God, and is not afraid of evil spirits at all, and just wants to deal with the matter in public. Everyone present did not react and asked and discussed each other, and there were all those who said anything.

At this time, Xie Xi suddenly opened his eyes, a cold snorted in everyone's minds, and the scene suddenly became quiet again. After Ruizhan closed his eyes and lay down again, Ziqiu, who was sitting behind the case, asked: "Four Bojuns, can you hear Lord Boyi's accusations clearly just now?"

These people said one after another: "Mr. Bo Yu, Lord. Bo Yi, Lord. Ziqiu... There is a reason for the matter, and we have no choice but to protect the people of the Ministry..."

Shanzha shouted like thunder: "Stop! Now it's Lord Ziqiu who is asking about the case. He just asked if you have heard what Master Bo Yi said clearly, and he did not ask you to defend yourself. You just need to answer the Lord's question, answer whatever you ask, and say less nonsense, and you will eventually give you a chance to defend yourself."

The four uncles had no choice but to answer: "I hear it clearly."

Ziqiu asked again: "You have changed the tribal ancestral temple to a place where you worship the Huai God. Is this a matter?"

The four uncles bowed their heads and said, "Yes."

As soon as this statement came, there was another uproar around him, and then all kinds of scolding came. Changing the place where the ancestors were worshipped to the god of Huai was simply a traitor! Although the four Bojuns did this, they were secretly unanimous. Only a few senior officials in the tribe who participated in this matter knew about it, and ordinary tribes did not know it.

No wonder these four tribes have made mysterious secrets when worshiping ancestors in recent years. Ordinary tribes are not qualified to enter the ancestral temple, and can only worship in the open space. They still have guards and guards of the ancestral temple on weekdays. So that's what happened. These four major tribes are favored by the Huai God, and they hold various rituals by the waterside to worship the Huai God. These are all public, but this matter is a secret.

This time, Xie Xi ignored her eyes and let the surroundings shout and scolded each other. In the end, Ziqiu raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and the scene was quiet again. Ziqiu pointed to the big tree next to the open space and cut a piece of the trunk on the tree. The ones engraved were the "Five Teachings", "Five Punishments" and "Nine Deals", and he slowly spoke.

"At the beginning of our world, we were all naked and weak, and had nothing. Establishing a temple to worship our ancestors is to thank our ancestors for their merits of life, nourishment and success. Not only did we give our bodies, hair and skin, but we also retain everything we enjoy today. We do not forget where our body comes from, do not forget what virtue teaches, and do not forget how to establish the world. This is filial piety.

The water demon Wuzhiqi, who caused trouble and harmed all the people, and used floods to force the world to sacrifice to sacrifice, what kind of merit is there for all tribes? Not to mention that he is not worthy of being worshipped as a god of Huai, but you even changed the ancestral temple to worship evil spirits! Bo Jun should have the six virtues. What kind of virtue do you have? You are not worthy of being Bo Jun, not worthy of being a noble scholar, and not worthy of being a son of man!"

The four Bojun knelt there and all lowered their heads and said nothing. Ziqiu asked again: "You not only led your troops to sacrifice to the Huai God, but since last year, there has been another secret sacrifice ceremony. Every month, you will choose a pair of children, boys and girls with full vitality and healthy body to offer them to the Huai God. The four families take turns to secret sacrifices, and have harmed twenty-four people so far. Is this a matter?"

When the four uncles heard this, they all fell to the ground and said tremblingly: "Sir, please spare me! Please report the details..."

They did not directly answer yes or no. Xie Xi suddenly opened his eyes and stood up, speaking, "Yes!"

The scene was so explosive that many people jumped up and pointed at the four Bojuns and scolded them sternly. If they had not paid attention to their actions, they probably had already smashed all the big and small stones. The custom of live offerings has existed since ancient times, and it has even been preserved in remote tribes. For example, before the war began, it was still very common to kill captured prisoners of war to sacrifice flags.

However, since the reign of Emperor Zhuanxu, the Chinese emperor has explicitly ordered all tribes to prohibit the use of living people to sacrifice in sacrifices. Moreover, these four Bojuns did not set up sacrifices publicly, but set up secret rituals in private and used their tribes to secretly sacrifice live. This is a taboo!

Over the years, many people have been displaced due to floods and many people have died and died due to various reasons, with twenty-four children missing. As long as the means are done in a hidden way, they will not attract special attention. However, such things cannot be said to be done. If it is publicly stated, no one will tolerate it.

When Ziqiu asked about the case, he had almost no nonsense, and only asked two questions to ask the four Bojun to answer whether they had or not. After these two questions were clear, no matter how many of the four Bojuns defended, the crime had been confirmed. The rest was how to deal with it. Ziqiu stood up and turned around and bowed, "Mr. Boyu, how should these four Bojuns in Daishu be dealt with?"

Bo Yu said coldly: "Put it in the cage!" (To be continued.)
