Chapter 176: The Wind Rises in Chang'an

Not only that, without the fixation of other ships, his ship's ability to withstand wind and waves is greatly reduced, and after a few more huge waves, the ship will be directly smashed.

When the time comes, not only will he die, but the original plan to plug the leak with the ship as a carrier will also fall short.

"Your uncle, what kind of grudge do Lao Tzu have with you? Do you have to kill Lao Tzu? Li Canghai scolded angrily.

The housekeeper's eyes were fierce, and the corners of his mouth revealed a cruel smile: "If you want to know the reason, go and ask Lord Yan!" ”

The power in the butler's hand suddenly increased by three points, and Li Canghai could feel that the dagger had touched his skin.

"We can't let the plan to block the breach fall short!" Li Canghai thought in his heart.

His eyes suddenly froze, his hands suddenly loosened, his body suddenly swung, and at the same time, two fingers of his right hand stretched out and quickly poked into the butler's eyes.

The dagger stabbed into Li Canghai's body, and at the same time, Li Canghai's two fingers poked directly into the butler's eyes, and the two of them let out a cry of pain at the same time.

Li Canghai scolded angrily: "If you want my life, then exchange your life!" ”

With an angry roar, Li Canghai clamped the housekeeper, his face was hideous, and he dragged the housekeeper and jumped under the boat.

With a pop, the two of them fell into the torrent at the same time.

The people who escaped from the boat were stunned when they saw all this.

After a long while, someone reacted and shouted, "Save the adult!"

However, those light boats could not withstand the impact of the big waves at all, and the impact of the flood was fierce, and the light boats were directly pushed far away by the flood.

Everyone rowed the light boat desperately, but the current was too fierce, so they had to let the wind and waves push the light boat away.

On the shore, Zuo Hongji, Chang Feng and others looked forward to it.

Seeing the light boat approaching, Chang Feng hurriedly staggered to meet him. He hurriedly asked, "Where is the lord?" ”

The people on the boat hid their faces and sighed, and they turned their heads to look at the breach.

With the help of lightning in the sky, Chang Feng and others found that there was still a big ship shaking violently at the breach, and the sunken ships on both sides were tilted.

Chang Feng's heart sank, and the secret path was not good.

According to Li Canghai's previous conjecture, if this happens, it means that the plan to plug the leak is very likely to have not succeeded.

Chang Feng hesitated, whether to follow Li Canghai's previous arrangement and let everyone quickly evacuate the Dragon King Temple.

At this moment, a new situation appeared at the breach.

With the help of lightning, everyone found that the big ship in the middle of the entire leakage was slowly sinking.

"My lord! It must be an adult! Chang Feng instantly thought that this big ship must have been scuttled by Li Canghai, so he shouted excitedly.

Zuo Hongji wiped the rain and shouted anxiously: "The adult is still alive, let's go and save him!" ”

Everyone stared at the ship with nervous expressions, that ship is not only related to whether it can block the breach, but also related to the lives of tens of thousands of people, success or failure is in one fell swoop!

Chang Feng staggered onto the light boat, and Zuo Hongji followed without hesitation, and the two rowed the boat and rowed up the current to the break.

The ship sank slowly, and in a few moments, it sank completely to the bottom.

At this time, although all eight ships sank to the bottom, the concrete poured on the eight ships formed a wall to cut off the flood water from the breach.

"It worked!"

I don't know who shouted excitedly, and everyone immediately cheered.

Although the walls shook under the impact of the flood, the flood was eventually stopped.

As the architect of this operation, Li Canghai gradually lost consciousness after drinking a few sips of the turbid floodwater.

He vaguely remembered that he jumped into the flood with his butler in his arms.

Then, enduring the severe pain, he came to the bottom of the ship, and used sharp stones to desperately chisel the weak point of the bottom of the ship.

The bottom of the ship was chiseled, and the sharp stakes of one man high, prepared in advance, tied directly under the hull, pierced the bottom of the ship fiercely under the weight of the hull.

The sharp wooden stakes were like sharp claws, firmly grasping the ground under the breach, and the concrete contained in the hull of the ship was poured down violently, and after contact with the current, a row of dense bubbles quickly emerged, and the concrete condensed when it met the water, and soon solidified the wooden stakes and the hull into a whole.

Eight boats, just enough to block the embankment.

The five-zhang wide hull structure contains concrete several feet high, and after the concrete loses its agitation, it begins to solidify rapidly under the contact of rainwater.

I'm afraid that even Li Canghai himself couldn't imagine that the concrete he made on a whim could really block the flood.

It wasn't until later, when he realized that the officials of the Ministry of Industry of the Imperial Court specialized in minerals, that he realized that he was able to block the breach entirely because of the special soil quality of Gushan.

Gushan's soil is a sedimentary rock that has the property of rapid condensation when in contact with water, which is what makes his plan work.

At this time, Chang'an, the imperial capital thousands of miles away, was surging with an uneasy atmosphere.

Chang'an City, full of flowers, very lively, and the palace is even more magnificent, magnificent.

In the Zichen Palace, the gold bricks are paved, the jade is staired, and Tang Xuanzong Li Longji is sitting on the dragon chair, looking at the folds in his hands with a gloomy face.

After a while, his expression suddenly turned out angrily, and Li Longji swept over the solemn crowd below, pointed at the song and shouted, "Can any of you explain to me, what's going on?" ”

The ministers bowed their heads one after another, and no one dared to answer.

Li Longji raised his eyebrows, and his old face was full of anger. He swept over the crowd and his gaze fell on a middle-aged official wearing a purple official uniform, with a long beard and a beard.

"Yang Guozhong, tell me what's going on?"

Yang Guozhong bent down to pick up the fold, he only glanced at it, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, according to the minister's opinion, these are all rumors, and the purpose is to prevent Your Majesty from touring the east to seal Zen." ”

"Rumors? Tell me what's going on with this 'Broken Dragon Stone'? Li Longji's face was full of anger, and he said angrily: "I haven't been to the court for a month, and there are people who want to rebel, how can this be reasonable, how can it be unreasonable!" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister Cui Lian has something to report!" Among the courtiers, one person walked out and bowed.

Li Longji saw Cui Lian walking out, and his brows furrowed: "Cui Lian, what's the matter with you?" ”

Cui Lian made a big salute to Li Longji, and he said in a deep voice: "This letter was sent to Chang'an seven days ago, however, this urgent letter was intercepted by someone with a heart. This is a deliberate attempt to deceive the Holy Hearing. ”

"Oh? Who is so bold as to intercept the twists? Li Longji shouted with a gloomy face.

Cui Lian glanced at Yang Guozhong, and said with a straight face: "Back to Your Majesty, the person who intercepted the twist and turn is Lord Yang!" As the prime minister, he was in charge of Zhongshu Province, and all the twists and turns had to be gathered in his hands, but he hid such a major event from the bursting of the Yellow River. Lord Yang, what is your intention in doing this? ”
