After a while, he popped up and looked at the expression that was about to cry, and knew that he must not have found it.

Subsequently, the eldest grandson Kangcheng sent some more people into the water to explore, but they all found nothing.

"Why can't you find it?"

Seeing that Li Jizong wanted to get this kind of stone, the eldest grandson Kang Cheng was naturally willing to help, but after so much effort, he still couldn't find it, so he summoned the subordinate over and repeatedly asked if he really threw it in this pond. How dare that person lie, and the gambling curse and swear are thrown into here.

"If you drain all the water in the pond for me, I don't believe that I can run away on my legs. ”

At the sound of the order, everyone got busy.

"Wait!" Li Jizong thought for a while, and hurriedly stopped: "You can't let go of water, not a drop of it." ”

The eldest grandson, Kang Chengqi, said: "If you don't drain the water, such a big pond, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find, don't you have any better way?"

Li Jizong touched the back of his head and said, "There is a way, but it is a little troublesome." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's troublesome, as long as Li Jizong's son can say it, he will do everything. The eldest grandson Kangcheng said with an indifferent face. Anyway, his city lord's mansion is rich and rich, and he wants people to have people, so he doesn't care at all.

Li Jizong smiled and said, "Can you boil the water in the pond dry?"

The eldest grandson Kangcheng had a dry mouth and was drinking water, and when he heard the sound, he sprayed all the tea. He looked at Li Jizong with a wink of his eyes and exclaimed, "This...... Isn't that too much trouble?"

For such a large pond, to boil all the water in it is terrifying.

The point is that it is not easier and more convenient to drain the water, and it is not necessary to burn it dry with fire, but he can figure it out, there is no need for this at all.

"Well, whatever you say you want to burn, it's up to you. Although this method sounds ridiculous, it is said in advance, and the eldest grandson Kangcheng is not easy to oppose.

Li Jizong naturally knew that it was indeed torturous to do this, but the current situation could only be like this.

He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Try to find a very large pot, fill it with water in the pool, and keep boiling it on a high fire below, and when it is almost dry, continue to fill it until all the water in the pond is dry." ”

"What?

When those people heard that they were going to be burned dry by fire, they were already devastated, and they didn't expect to be able to use only one pot, and how long would it take to burn?

Although everyone was reluctant, they did not dare to disobey.

Immediately everybody was busy. Someone was responsible for carrying a cauldron, someone setting up a stove, and someone bringing firewood. Set up this cauldron, and some people on top are constantly adding water to it, and some people below are constantly adding firewood and fire.

It was a busy night, and it was not until the afternoon of the next day that it was finally completed.

Fortunately, the City Lord's Mansion has huge manpower and material resources, and if it is used elsewhere, it may not be so efficient.

Li Jizong casually found a place to sleep, Sun Qingyue came to call him, and he couldn't wait to come to the pond again. On the way, the eldest grandson Kangcheng also rushed over.

Listening to the eldest grandson Kangcheng, a guest did come some time ago.

Knowing that an outsider had come in the City Lord's Mansion, of course the eldest grandson Kangcheng couldn't be sloppy, and immediately sent someone to investigate the matter. Only then did he learn that it was from the family of one of his concubines.

The eldest grandson Kangcheng has many wives and concubines, and his status is high and low.

This concubine's family is quite wealthy, but she is not very likable, and when her mother's family comes to relatives, she will entertain her casually, and she does not alarm her husband.

The relative ate a little too much, went out to look for a thatched house, and happened to find the newly built thatched house.

The feeling of stepping on the floor and fluttering lightly made him feel very novel, and he was blindly envious of the things in the city lord's mansion, so he searched everywhere, hoping to buy such a floor and decorate it in his home.

Although this is just a small episode, it is precisely because of this that Li Jizong was able to indirectly learn this important information.

When Li Jizong and the others came to the pond, the "culprit" who threw the stone into the pond immediately greeted them. His eyes were red, and it seemed that he hadn't slept all night, but he was in good spirits, and said excitedly: "Master, something has been found." ”

The eldest grandson, Kangcheng, let out a "hmm".

At this moment, the pond was empty, there was not a drop of water, and if it could not be found again, those few stones would have become fine.

As soon as the subordinate beckoned, several people came over, each carrying a stone in his hand. At first glance, the color and texture are the legendary ancient orchids.

However, Li Jizong didn't look at it, and walked directly towards the cauldron.

The man was worried until he found those few stones in the pond and he could redeem his merits, and then he breathed a sigh of relief. Unexpectedly, Li Jizong ignored it, and suddenly became nervous again.

The eldest grandson Kangcheng and Sun Qingyue were also confused and didn't know why.

Don't you really want to get these broken stones? After spending so much manpower and material resources to finally get them, why aren't you interest......ed? Deliberately playing tricks, right?

What's even more puzzling is, what is there to see in that pot?

At this moment, the firewood below has been extinguished, and there is still a small half pot of pond water in the pot that has not completely evaporated.

Li Jizong walked over and reached out to fish in the pot.

Sun Qingyue came up curiously, and saw that when Li Jizong's hand stretched out, a crystal water balloon the size of a clear thumb appeared in the palm of his palm. Water is a moving thing, and the strange thing is that the water balloon is completely in Li Jizong's hand.

Then, Li Jizong took out a bottle from his body, filled the water balloon into it, and then collected it like a treasure.

"This ...... What is it?" asked Sun Qingyue.

Li Jizong breathed a sigh of relief, smiled mysteriously, and said, "Of course, it's the Tianyuan water I've always wanted." ”

"Tian Yuanshui? I've never heard of it. Sun Qingyue thought about it, and still said puzzledly: "Then you let the water in the pool be boiled dry, and those few broken stones, which one is the trouble?"

Li Jizong did not hide it, and said: "It's very simple, this kind of stone is called Gulan Stone, and Gulan Stone contains the element of Tianyuan Water, which is extremely active, and after soaking in water for a long time, it will merge into the water." Steamed all the water dry, and the Tianyuan water naturally came out. ”

Sun Qingyue suddenly remembered what happened in Dantang last time, and said, "Does this Tianyuan Water have anything to do with Cao Xuanye?"

"It doesn't matter, it's okay, okay, it's too deep, you can't understand it. After speaking, Li Jizong walked up to the eldest grandson Kangcheng, hugged his fists, and said, "Thank you city lord." ”

The eldest grandson Kangcheng was also surprised when he saw it, but this was people's privacy, and it was inconvenient for him to ask more.

"You're welcome, if you find it. ”

After a few words of greeting with the eldest grandson Kangcheng, seeing that the hour was not early, Li Jizong was not staying, so he said goodbye and left the city lord's mansion.

Since I came to the City Lord's Mansion last night, it was already afternoon when I went back, and it was delayed for so long, but fortunately, it was worth the trip. Next, it was time for him to go back to the academy and prepare for the early assessment.

didn't know that at this moment, there was an invisible net in the academy, waiting for him to throw himself into it.
