Chapter 183: A Strange Drought
Just because of Li Mang's sentence in the woods, the harmonious atmosphere of this blind date was directly destroyed, especially when Zhao Xiaoyu, who came back from wiping away his tears, heard his mother's blame, the tears that he had finally held back gushed out like spring water, and then turned around and ran away, even the red envelopes that Li Mang had prepared for the send-off were not needed.
“…… Mangzi, I didn't know if this girl would be like this. Li's mother said embarrassedly that she single-handedly facilitated this meeting, but she almost missed her son's life, so she felt guilty.
"Mom, you are also for my good, besides, the blind date is like this, if it is appropriate, talk about it, and disperse if you don't speculate." Li Mang was relieved.
"Yes, yes, we are such capable people as Mangzi, are we still worried about the lack of a good girl to marry, I said Mangzi's mother, don't be so anxious." The village women on the side also echoed their words, and they were also very annoyed when they were deceived by Zhao Xiaoyu's performance at the beginning.
"Yes, anyway, Mangzi is still young now, let him find this kind of thing by himself!" Mother Li sighed, being hit by today's incident, she didn't have the mood to be a matchmaker for her son anymore.
Hearing this, Li Mang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief on his face, and a smile bloomed on his face, he has no intention of having a child love affair now, and his parents continue to find a wife for him, and it is good to say that he has a way to refuse when he meets Zhao Xiaoyu, but if he meets a good girl, he really doesn't know how to do it, and refusing will hurt people's hearts.
The blind date was only delayed for a morning, and the plan to build a house and pave the road was not affected by this, and with the help of the villagers, all the plans were started in full swing. The materials used to build the house were brought in on the same day, and the construction of the second paving road was approved, and the town government also completed it as soon as possible.
But for all this, Li Mang did not do it himself. Just transfer the money out of the village and let the father and the village chief manage it all.
What's more, Li Mang is taking advantage of his free time to practice frantically, and at the same time, he does not forget to explore the mountains of the Shan Hai Jing, and cultivation and exploration are synchronized. Actual combat is cultivation, and eating the flesh of ancient beasts is also his unique cultivation method, and he is making progress every day, very down-to-earth.
In the thirteenth mountain of the second meridian of the south called Xun Mountain, Li Mang encountered a strange animal that looked like a sheep. But there is no mouth, which is strange. Because he had read the original Classic of Mountains and Seas, Li Mang knew that this was a golden beast, a magical ancient beast that did not need to eat food, and was born to open up valleys. You only need to absorb the aura of heaven and earth to survive, and your lifespan is extremely long.
Foodie Li Mang refuses to miss any food. This Jin was also put into a hot pot by him. After eating, Li Mang was surprised to find that he could actually open the valley......
Li Mang's first reaction was not to be happy, but to panic, the mountains and seas were still beckoning to him with thousands of delicacies, if he didn't have to eat anymore, it would be worse than death for him.
Thankfully. Li Mang just had an additional ability to absorb the aura of heaven and earth, and he didn't lose his hunger or interest in food, which made him happy.
Other than that. This powerful absorption ability could also assist and speed up the speed of cultivation, which was a great joy and made Li Mang very happy.
As for Bigu, it is also useful, in some specific circumstances, you may lose food, you may be imprisoned, and Bigu is the guarantee of survival.
"I don't know what's going on in Lu Dao, the sun is very poisonous these days, and there are already people in the construction team who have suffered from heat stroke." At lunch, Li's mother said worriedly, "There are still crops on the slopes, which will be dried and withered in just a few days, and if they continue, the harvest will be lost in the first half of the year!" ”
Hearing this, Li Mang also felt strange, before he came back, the road was still wet, and waterholes could be seen everywhere, which showed that it was not dry. But in the past few days since he returned home, the sun has been high every day, from eight o'clock in the morning to six or seven o'clock in the afternoon, the air is dry and muggy, and there are obvious signs of rain, but the rain has not fallen for a long time.
This is very unreasonable, the weather forecast reports a rainy day, but in fact, every day the sun, the local TV station was scolded enough to be aggrieved, and the Meteorological Bureau was also inexplicable.
If Li Mang knew the method of calculation, he would definitely be able to discover the magical laws permeating Nanling, and it was these strange laws that not only prevented the stagnant rain from falling, but also made the sun more violent, which was very terrifying.
"The workers who suffered from heat stroke are fine, right?" Li Mang frowned and asked.
"It's okay now, but it's so hot, I'm afraid it's not a way to go on like this." Li's mother was very worried, the weather was too hot, not to mention the delay in the project, and the health of the workers and villagers was not guaranteed.
"I'll figure it out!" Li Mang groaned, and after finishing the meal in three or two, he drove his mother's women's motorcycle and left home.
“…… It's really sunny! Li Mang, who was driving the car, frowned, he felt hot when he drove the car, and the wind blowing on his cheeks was hot, not to mention the villagers and workers who had to work under the scorching sun. In this kind of weather, you will sweat when you go out, not to mention you have to do labor, which is simply fatal.
When he went to the town, he pulled a large cart of watermelons and sent them to the construction site, and Li Mang also extended the lunch schedule for everyone, and then drove back to Tuling Village, but his brows were always furrowed. He felt even more strange when he went out to lie down, and in the dark, he felt that the weather was a little weird, but he couldn't say why.
"Gotta find a way to solve this." Li Mang parked the car at the door, dug out the shotgun from under the bed that he hadn't touched for more than a year, and told his mother that he was going to enter the back mountain.
"Mangzi, be careful, don't go too deep, it's not very quiet in the forest recently." Mother Li admonished Li Mang.
"What's going on inside?" Li Mang asked strangely, his nerves were very sensitive.
"I heard that during this time, many wild beasts in the forest died inexplicably, and even the flesh was blackened, as if it was poisoned, and there were bite marks on the neck. Because of the death of many precious protected animals, it has attracted the attention of the Nanling Authority, and now there is a team of experts in it to investigate. Li's mother replied casually, but she didn't notice the discoloration on her son's face.
"Don't worry, I'll be careful." Li Mang answered, and walked towards the back mountain with a shotgun, but his brows were slightly locked, poisonous substances infested in the Nanling Forest? Could this be related to the inexplicable drought?
It's not that Li Mang's idea is wild, some ancient beasts can affect the weather in local areas, not to mention, his war pet crystal dragon can cause floods, before he planned to release the crystal dragon rain to drive away the drought and cool down.
Crystal dragons can attract floods, on the contrary, some ancient beasts can attract droughts, and this kind of creatures are often recorded in the Book of Mountains and Seas
