Chapter 11 Digging a Well

Under the sun, above the riverside.

The people of Huanglong County sat on the ground, looking at the river that had long since dried up, these people had chapped lips and lost their eyes, and they kept staring at the riverbank.

The atmosphere was very depressed.

I prayed in my heart for a stream of water to flow down from above.

After more than half a month of interception, the people of Huanglong County have long been miserable.

Water is the source of life, and it is the spirit of all things.

They have food, but now they don't even have water to cook raw rice.

Whether it is the common people or the soldiers, they are all in a pessimistic attitude, if they continue like this, in less than two days, the 200,000 people in their Huanglong County will die of thirst without exception.

"The city lord is here!"

"The city lord is here!"

"The city lord is here!"

......

At the end of the river, a large number of soldiers walked towards this direction, and the people did not show a panicked look when they heard this, but showed a little brightness and a glimmer of hope.

In the eyes of the people of Huanglong County, the city lord is omnipotent.

Could it be ......

The city lord has come up with a way?

Definitely!

All the people looked at the rear of the soldiers, with longing and hope. It's a faith, a trust, an incomparable charisma.

In Huanglong County, the city lord has this kind of treatment.

The soldiers lined up in two lanes and welcomed them in the middle of the road.

Everyone looked suspicious, quite puzzled, the city lord is amiable, has always liked to keep a low profile, why is this time so high-profile, it seems that this trip is unusual, as if it is an omen.

Could it be the Lord......

Everyone looked ahead with curious eyes.

The legend of His Royal Highness Tianzhao has long spread throughout Huanglong County, but few people have seen his dignity.

The true dragon of troubled times, the son of heaven of the Great Zhou.

Shou and the sky Qi, want to borrow the gods with the sky.

All kinds of rumors have come one after another, and the versions are different, but most of them are praises for it, and they all seem to express the fact that this is Renjun and the savior of the Great Zhou.

It's just that at this time, everyone is only concerned about the issue of water.

As for how strong the rumors are, what does it have to do with them?

In the middle of the road, a few people came, and the first person who caught the eyes of the people was a slightly heroic young man, and then the old man who was slower than half a body, the city lord.

When I saw it for the first time in my life, I was shocked.

All the people looked sideways, so young. A thin man sighed: "So young, the rumors can't all be fake!"

A child biting his chapped lip glanced at the man and retorted: "Village Erdan, you are not allowed to talk nonsense, my father told me, His Royal Highness Tianzhao is majestic in the world, and he has the same life as the sky, and he even borrowed a divine artifact from the hands of the sky and pacified the 100,000 troops of the world!"

"Rumors can't be false!"

This village is the nickname of the thin man, and his name is unknown, but he is disgusting and disgusting, and he is an unpopular person in Huanglong County.

It's just that no one in Huanglong County will respect him.

The thin man's pupils dilated, and he scolded angrily like a cat whose tail had been stepped on: "Didn't the adults in your family teach you to respect your elders?

"My father told me to stay away from you, and he didn't say anything about honoring you!" the child broke the man's face and ran away.

made the village two eggs angry for a while.

Although everyone was unhappy when they heard this, they still had some suspicions, these rumors were all said by young men who were soldiers in their own family, they were all some women and children and old people, of course they had never seen it.

A simply-dressed shrew said in a loud voice: "Village Erdan, you are not wrong all day long, now start saying cool things here, where is cool and stay where it is cool! Don't bring bad children, otherwise I will let my family Ah Han tell the city lord to go!"

"If he can solve the problem of water supply in my Huanglong County, I will support him and love him, if not, why should I respect him......" The man pursed his lips, whispered, and walked away to the side.

"Is this person His Highness Tianzhao? It looks a little small!"

"Huanglong County has been besieged for half a month, and if there is no water, we will all die of thirst!"

"I really want to have a drink!"

Listening to the various discussions of the people around him, Li Tianzhao was expressionless, but he did not feel the slightest anger because of their words, the people regard food as the sky, if they can't even take care of the people's well-being, why do they need to respect themselves.

Huang Shi's face was embarrassed, the citizens of Huanglong County have always been open and simple, there is one thing to say, there are no taboos. There is not the slightest respect from their branches.

"Your Highness......"

Huang Shi wanted to say something, but Li Tianzhao waved his hand.

"Huang Shi doesn't need to be nervous, it's an eventful time, how can I blame others!"

Huang Shi's pupils shrank, and he bowed his hand respectfully and said, "Your Highness is benevolent!"

Since ancient times, kings are not mortals who can comment wantonly, if it is according to the law of the Great Zhou, it should be cut off all of their tongues, His Royal Highness Tianzhao has such a benevolent heart, which makes him very surprised and more respectful.

Li Tianzhao didn't care, he didn't belong here, he didn't even dare to kill a chicken in the past, and he casually killed people, he was not so cruel as he was. Then he commanded, "Have you prepared everything you have prepared?"

"What His Highness ordered, Weichen didn't dare to slack off!"

"Come up!"

With Huang Shi's order, ten strong soldiers came over, each of them holding ropes, shovels and other things, looking eager to try, which made the people around them puzzled.

What are these ten soldiers going to do?

Sticking out their heads, they all wanted to know what these soldiers were going to do.

The corners of Li Tianzhao's mouth raised slightly, mortals, let you see what sound is today.

Come out, Your Highness's entertainment cannon.

"System, give me the sound all around!"

Suddenly.

Several domineering voices sounded around the entire riverbank, and the hollow valley echoed, like the gods.

"Huanglong County, besieged for half a month, the water source in the city is almost exhausted!"

"His Royal Highness has compassion for the world, and suddenly has a feeling that he has found a way to seek water!"

"Dig and sink wells for the benefit of Huanglong County for generations to come!"

"You are my people of Great Xia......"

The voice of His Highness Tianzhao spread throughout the riverside, and everyone looked left and right, only to see His Highness Tianzhao standing in front of him, without saying a word, his lips tightly closed.

There was a lot of shock on his face, and the voice was like a heavenly might, echoing all around, more like a god's mansion.

How did this come about?

Is His Royal Highness Tianzhao an immortal?

Why can his voice be heard everywhere?

Is this the power of the gods?

Immortal!

His Royal Highness Tianzhao must have been sent down from heaven to save them, the people of Li.

That's right, His Royal Highness Tianzhao is an immortal!

In the hearts of the people, such a means is tantamount to the power of the gods, the legendary gods call the wind and rain, omnipotent, and His Royal Highness Tianzhao has obviously become a god in the minds of everyone.

All the people fell directly to the ground and shouted:

"His Royal Highness Heavenly Summoning, Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

"His Royal Highness Heavenly Summoning, Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

"His Royal Highness Heavenly Summoning, Chitose Chitose Chitose!"

......

Mura Erdan's eyes trembled slightly, this Heavenly Summoning His Highness is really a god descending to earth? Didn't he hear the bad words he just said.

He knelt on the ground with a snap, slammed it on the ground, and said in a broken mouth: "Your Highness Tianzhao, the grass people just talked nonsense, you have a lot of adults, don't blame me......"

The voices of the people of Huanglong County resounded for nine days, like thunder, like lightning, echoing in the sky and shocking the world.

Li Tianzhao was speechless for a while, and the prepared lines also stopped, looking at the people of Huanglong County who were kneeling down, he was speechless in his heart, he knelt down, his back hand was not on yet, was this ancient man so easy to fool?

I knew that these people were so easy to fool, what else did they pretend, and they directly carried the entertainment two-tone cannon and blew it up everywhere.

Hey!

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining a little faith!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for gaining three faith points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning two faith points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for earning two faith points!"

"Ding! Congratulations to the host......"

“......”

Listening to this continuous prompt, Li Tianzhao's mood suddenly became beautiful.

People, only when they lose, do they know how to cherish. At this time, Li Tianzhao was like this, and he was extremely eager for faith.

As everyone knows, Li Tianzhao borrowed an entertainment cannon to spread his voice all over the riverside, which is a very common thing in modern times, but in ancient times, it was like a god.

In the hearts of the people, only the gods can do it.

There is no doubt that in the hearts of the people, His Royal Highness Tianzhao has become a god and a sky.

Treat the gods and the heavens, and the people can only cast their most devout beliefs, and only in this way can they bring blessings and pray for blessings.

In the hearts of the people, the gods are great, they help the needy, and they bring good luck.

Huanglong County will be shrouded in good luck.

The disaster will reced.

Huang Shi looked at His Royal Highness Tianzhao with a smile on his face, such a miracle, he has long been used to it, maybe His Royal Highness Tianzhao is really a god, and Tianqi, borrowing an artifact, who dares to compete with it, and what is the difference between it and the gods.

Wu Qizi is what a copy should look like.

His Royal Highness Tianzhao is the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his status is noble, second only to the ancestors, even if he has removed many immortal means, these people should also bow down to His Highness.

As for Chen Guang, His Royal Highness looks like the loyalty of the sky.

......

Everyone looked ahead, wanting to see how His Highness Tianzhao asked for water, only to see His Highness Tianzhao pick up two slender wooden sticks, fix them with both hands, and draw a round mark straight in a relatively low place.

It is about two zhang long.

Everyone was puzzled, what is His Highness going to do this day?

And why his approach is so magical.

Why is the circle he drew so round?

What is this method? It is several times more round than the carpenter's carving.

Huang Shi glanced at His Highness, but he was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect His Highness to be in charge of everything, proficient in military strategy, and with peerless martial arts, at such an age, he would even specialize in the skills of such craftsmen, and learn the sea endlessly, His Highness seems to know everything, and he knows everything.

No matter how knowledgeable a person is, he should not know so much.

Forget it, His Highness is very human.

Why should I be crazy, I just don't know why I dig a hole?

Under the orders of His Highness, ten strong men began to dig down the circle marks with shovels and other things.

The crowd became more and more puzzled, isn't this asking for water?

Why did you dig a hole?

Is there water in the hole?

Everything is a little weird.

Li Tianzhao once observed the surroundings, which was located in dense shade, dense shrubs, and bustling with a few towering trees. The river has dried up because the upper reaches have been cut off, but what is really dry is only the surface.

There is water flow in this place, and naturally there will be groundwater as well.

As long as you dig deep enough, water will come out of the well.

......

At first, the excavated soil was dry.

After two feet, the soil becomes slightly damp.

Seeing this, Li Tianzhao smiled at the corner of his mouth, and it seemed that his judgment was not wrong. Even if the upper reaches are intercepted, the river is moistened all year round, and water is naturally available.

In this regard, Huang Shi is still confused, like everyone else, is there any connection between this water and digging soil?

Puzzled: "Weichen is ignorant, I hope His Highness will solve his doubts!"

Li Tianzhao did not answer, but looked at Wu Qi and Chen Guang behind him.

"Don't you know either?"

Wu Qi and Chen Guang nodded one after another, and they didn't know, why was this?

In the world, they have only heard of asking for rain, but they have not heard of digging soil and asking for water, which is contrary to common sense and unreasonable.

Li Tianzhao shook his head, poor ancient people, who didn't even know about the well, looked down at the soil dug up by ten people. Gently pinch and try, slimy. Yes, it seems that if you dig three or four feet down, there will be water.

"Remember, remember to shoot the surrounding walls when digging!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

......

Li Tianzhao waited quietly, and everyone became more and more puzzled.

What is His Royal Highness Tianzhao waiting for, how long will it take to dig like this?

Huang Shi was tickled by His Royal Highness Tianzhao, like a cat's paw. It's just that His Highness didn't say it, and he had no choice but to look at the people in the pit below like everyone else.

At this time, ten people took turns.

The pit was three feet deep from the ground.

Ropes and other equipment must be used to transport the soil underneath.

"Your Highness, you are in a hurry to kill me, just tell me!" Huang Shi couldn't help it, and pleaded with Li Tianzhao.

Seeing this, the others all looked at His Highness Tianzhao.

They were also curious, what the hell was going on?

Li Tianzhao smiled.

came to the newly transported soil, picked up a piece of tightly adhered soil, and walked towards Huang Shi.

"Hand out!"

Huang Shi was inexplicable and stretched out his dry hand.

I saw Li Tianzhao put the soil in his hand down on him.

This!

This is?

Huang Shi was a little confused, pinching the soil, feeling a little wet, but why is this? Does this have anything to do with water?

Li Tianzhao stroked his forehead, not wanting to talk to these people.

Wait quietly, this thing wants to be clear.

Three days and three nights may not be able to finish the lecture, and he is not a teacher, is it possible that he can't teach by word and deed?

Seeing His Royal Highness like this, Huang Shi was even more confused.

In this way, a group of unknown people watched quietly.

He waited quietly, as if he was going to witness something great happening.

The excavated soil grew taller.

"Your Highness!

"Your Highness!"

"Your Highness!

"Your Highness......"

"Your Highness......"

As several voices sounded below, Li Tianzhao's eyes lit up, and he really dug it? Hurriedly looked towards the deep pit below.

At this time, the pit was seven zhang deep.

"Quick! Pull the five of them up!"
