Chapter 182 The Cylinder Car is Released!

Out of Xidu is a patch of rice paddies.

In the past, the fields must be green, the seedlings are tall, the water in the field is rippling, and the birds fall into the fields to rest and hunt, and they can startle a group of birds when they walk over.

What a harmonious and beautiful idyllic scenery it is, thriving and vibrant.

This is a memory in my mind, and it was already a different scene when Yao Yun led everyone to the field at this moment.

At first glance, the seedlings are still green, like green grasslands, but if you look closely, you can find that some of the leaves are yellow, and the water in the rice field is not completely dry, but it is also dry, wet, and the water is almost dry.

This is still a better situation, Yao Yun walked all the way over and found a paddy field in an even worse condition.

The terrain of those paddy fields is relatively high, and the small ditches and small ponds near them have dried up, and there is no water source, and the seedlings in those paddy fields not only grow shorter than those in other places, but also look green and yellow on the whole, which is very obvious.

In the fields, there are busy farmers everywhere.

They carried large and small wooden barrels one by one, back and forth between the water source and the rice fields, as if they were using human power to carry water for irrigation!

Yao Yun was curious, and when he walked over to take a look, as he expected, it was really relying on manpower to irrigate the paddy fields.

With manpower irrigation, how long this acre of land needs to be irrigated, Yao Yun can hardly imagine.

Not to mention that this year, Xidu has the art of cattle ploughing, and the cultivated land is far more than in previous years, and the amount of labor of farmers will inevitably increase greatly.

The peasants, who were carrying water for irrigation, saw the arrival of the king and his party, and hurriedly bowed to him.

"I've seen the king!"

Yao Yun originally thought that the people would cry to him, the king, but the result was beyond his expectations, and the people saluted respectfully, and after saluting, their faces showed anxious expressions.

Yao Yun knew that the people were worried about their fields, racing against time to rescue the seedlings, and he had no intention of talking about it, and he didn't mind, after all, for these people, arable land is life, and if the harvest in the field is lost, they will not be able to live.

"Let's get busy, go ahead alone!"

As if they had been pardoned, the people took their buckets and ran away.

Yao Yun noticed that in a group of farmers, there was also an eight- or nine-year-old child who was also carrying a small bucket.

"Hey, it's a natural disaster!" Yao Yun said with emotion.

Wu Tong on the side answered at this time: "King, it is indeed a natural disaster to cause drought without rain, but not every time it does not rain, it is because of God, it may also be a 'fierce disaster'!"

When Yao Yun heard this, he was stunned for a moment, if he had been in the previous life, he would naturally scoff at this, but this world is a mythical world, and it is really possible that some mysterious existence will cause changes in the heavens.

Yao Yun asked, "What does the Second Elder mean?"

Wu Tong nodded: "The old man has already noticed that the rain seems to be different this year, but he didn't take it to heart, the situation is getting worse these days, and the old man tried divination, and it was really a bad omen." ”

Yao Yun frowned: "What does this mean?"

Wu channel: "It means that there is a 'demon and evil spirit', in the face of this situation is actually very easy to solve, only the living sacrifice can solve the problem, this thing is not uncommon, there are many powerful things in the mountains, they may be unintentional, we just give enough sacrifices, it will leave on its own, and when the time comes, the rain prayer meeting will be held, and the sky will rain and dew"

Yao Yun shook his head when he heard this, he still thought there was something mysterious, wasn't this the method commonly used by the ancient tribes, he also thought that the second elder Wutong had some wonderful method, in the final analysis, it was still a sacrificial one.

If it was sacrificed with livestock, Yao Yun would not bother to pay attention to it, but with a living sacrifice, Yao Yun could not accept it.

Yao Yun was depressed and didn't want to speak.

But Wu Tong thought that the king was shaken after coming to the farmland and seeing the tragic situation, so the more he spoke, the more energetic he became, and the spit flew:

"King, this human sacrifice is very simple, as long as you agree, give twenty slaves to the old man, and the king doesn't need to do it in the future, the old man will do it single-handedly, well, this is the duty of the old man. ”

Speaking of this human sacrifice, there are two rituals, one is the fire sacrifice, this sacrifice is to take twenty copper pillars, bind the slave on the copper pillar, put the charcoal fire to burn, wait for the slave to eat the pain and roar, recite the spirit mantra, chant the sacrifice notice, then urge the charcoal fire, a handful of burn away the slave's body, this method is to deal with the ghosts and gods of evil things, they like to eat people, human souls. ”

"The second is the earth sacrifice, this method is even simpler, just bury the slave alive, chant the spirit mantra, chant the sacrifice proclamation, this is to deal with the beasts, monsters and the like, as long as it is satisfied with the sacrifice, then everything can return to normal!"

Hearing the second elder Wu Tong talking, Yao Yun had goosebumps coming out when he heard it, and a chill was bubbling in his heart, this is really a primitive world, too barbaric, and bloody, especially when the second elder Wu Tong talked about this, he actually showed a look of obsession and reverence.

"What if people are not satisfied with the sacrifice?"

"If you are not satisfied, you can discuss, if you can't add a little more slave, this king doesn't have to worry, the old man will communicate with it!"

Yao Yun actually asked subconsciously, but he never expected that Second Elder Wu Tong would answer so simply and so naturally.

"Huh!"

Yao Yun subconsciously snorted, there was not much of it.

Wu Tong was originally full of interest, but when he heard the king's "hehe", he was immediately confused.

"King, what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting" Yao Yun shook his head, of course he couldn't say anything about Wutong, after all, the world is like this, he is a maverick, after thinking about it, Yao Yun said:

"Second Elder, it's not a natural disaster, why should we succumb to power, if there is a demon or evil spirit, we will kill him or drive him away, even if it is a natural disaster, we can also work hard to strengthen ourselves and change the surrounding environment. ”

In fact, what Yao Yun wants to say is that man will win the day!

However, after thinking about the background of this world, Yao Yun still wisely kept his mouth shut.

Wu Tong was stunned when he heard this, he never thought that his own king would think like this, so much so that he couldn't say that the king was whimsical, after all, he was going to become the son of Zhu Xia in the future, and he was so happy to have such courage, but

"King, the other party's origin is unknown, how do we drive it, we can't do it, as for fighting natural disasters by ourselves, it will be even more difficult, the former can still try, the latter is really hopeless."

Wu Tong wanted to express it euphemistically, but he forgot the words for a while, and only after a while did he say that there was little hope.

Everyone talked as they walked, and it didn't take long for them to come to the Yingshui River.

The river is sparkling, the water is turbulent, and the sound of the water is roaring.

"At the moment of great calamity, why not give it a try?" Yao Yun saw that although the water level of the Yingshui River had dropped a lot, there was still enough water, and he suddenly had confidence in his heart, swept away his previous depression, and said with a smile.

Wu Tong rang the flute, try, which one to try?

"Which one does the king want to try?"

Yao Yun said: "There is a treasure that can be introduced into this rice field from the Yingshui River. ”

Yao Yun pointed to the vast area of water-starved farmland behind him.

Wu Tong shook his head again and again: "The water of the Yingshui River has also become shallower, and the paddy fields in the downstream plain area can still be irrigated, but how to irrigate the rice in the upper reaches of the high terrain, hey, the king, you said that you have a treasure, dare to ask what treasure it is?"

Yao Yun didn't want to think about it and said, "Tube car!"
