The spring water is bubbling and pearl-like bubbles float at the lower end of the bamboo tube. The water is so clear that you can't help but pick up a handful and drink it to your heart's content.

Sweet relish.

In addition to the ridicule of Ye Neem, the departure did not leave any waves, and everyone's attention was all on the spring water that attracted it.

Whether it was a gray-haired old man, a dark-skinned man, or a child with a hanging bun, everyone almost repeated the action of drinking water.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Ye Chang, who was standing on the rock, his eyes full of admiration. In their eyes, the boy standing on the rock seemed to be shrouded in a layer of light.

If it weren't for the saying of "meeting immortals", I am afraid that everyone would think that Ye Chang himself would be an immortal.

"Eleven Lang, you ...... It saved us all, please accept our and other people's worship! ”

Du Laohan, the oldest of the people and with white hair, folded his hands and bent down, almost touching the ground. The crowd also followed suit, and the younger, younger children were even asked by the adults to kneel on the ground and salute.

They have nothing to express their gratitude for, that's all.

"Come again, prepare to build a second one." Ye Chang waved his hand, and he was not pretentious: "The water of one is insufficient, so we need to build a double line." ”

With the experience of the first one, the second bamboo siphon was built with ease, and after a while, the second one began to bubble up, and the flow of the creek at the lower end of the rock increased considerably.

Such a flow rate is probably enough for a flat area under the slope and slope. If you have to save a little money, you can even double the land for irrigation, as long as you use drip irrigation.

Wiping his sweat, Ye Chang breathed a sigh of relief, seeing the smiling faces of everyone around him, he knew in his heart that he had finally established himself in this era, in Wu Ze.

After that, if there was something unusual about his behavior, everyone would not suspect it, and it would be easier to ask for help.

"Eleven Lang." A voice rang out.

Ye Chang followed the prestige, it was the patriarch Ye Dan. Ye Dan, who was standing with his hands behind his back, had a strange gaze, both admiration, unwillingness, and a little jealousy.

"I've seen the sect leader." Ye Chang saluted.

"Well done...... Well done, after returning to the village, come to my house. Ye Dan said a word, turned around and left.

He seems to be calm, but inside he is like a storm.

Ye Chang actually did it!

With the help of more than 20 or 30 households not surnamed Ye, only a few hundred dollars of Mao Zhu, and only three or four days of hard work, he really completed the task of leading the water two miles away!

If not, how can it be explained?

If it was just an immortal's guidance, Ye Dan would not be so excited, because the immortal's guidance could take care of it for a while, but it couldn't take care of it for a lifetime. What made Ye Dan even more impressed with this nephew was his organizational skills displayed throughout the process.

A plate of scattered villagers, under Ye Chang's organization, acted like an army.

With such skills, sooner or later there will be a day when he will come out, Ye Dan is not Ye Neem, and there is no direct interest entanglement with Ye Chang, on the contrary, standing at the height of the entire Ye clan, Ye Dan hopes that the younger generations in the clan can produce talents. Anyway, no matter how good the younger generation is, it can't change his status as a long house.

"Eleven Lang is amazing, I said it earlier!" He hadn't gone far when he heard the girl's cheers.

But it was the Fang clan who led Xiang'er to see the excitement, not only them, but almost the entire residents of Wu Ze ran over to see this project that was a miracle for them. Xiang'er was naturally the happiest, jumping and shouting in the crowd, chirping, but her words were poor and repeated, and she could only use "great" and "just good". Ye Chang blushed a little when he heard this, thinking in his heart that he should teach this little girl something, lest she wouldn't even be able to praise people, it's terrible to be uneducated.

The people who were digging this aqueduct with Ye Chang surrounded them one by one and surrounded Ye Chang. The expressions on their faces were both joyful and proud, happy that they were able to participate in this miraculous project. Seeing that they didn't open their mouths one by one, Ye Chang suddenly understood that the water attraction was not over yet, and they were still waiting for their own distribution of water sources.

"Here comes the paper!" Ye Changdao.

No response.

"Uh, Xiang'er, Xiang'er?" Ye Chang turned around, and the little girl who was still circling around him just now didn't know where she had gone.

Xiang'er ran to the crowd over there to praise Ye Chang, and in the good-natured laughter of everyone, she realized that Ye Chang was calling her. With a pair of big black and white eyes, he ran back inexplicably: "Eleven Lang, what do you have to tell the slaves?" ”

The little girl called herself a "slave" in a sweet and glutinous voice, and Ye Chang's heart was itchy and itchy when she heard it, and she was almost about to melt. He held a hand: "Here comes the paper!" ”

"Ah...... Yes, in a slave bag! ”

Xiang'er took out a stack of paper from the bag on his shoulder, in this era, papermaking has not been improved, so the price of paper is expensive, at this time the famous calligrapher monk Huaisu practiced words can not afford to use paper, can only plant banana trees, with its leaves instead of paper. Therefore, Xiang'er took this stack of papers very seriously, and was careful when she took it out.

On the paper are Ye Chang's words written with charcoal.

Ye Chang has practiced calligraphy for a period of time, Han Li, Wei Bei, Yan Liu, Su Huang, Mi Cai, he has copied them, although the craftsmanship is very heavy, but he can barely get it. It's just that writing calligraphy is relatively slow after all, so when recording the work of each group, Ye Chang used a homemade charcoal pen.

He read out the work completed by each group and the bonus points one by one, and after everyone had no objections, he determined the order of each family's water distribution according to the different scores of each group.

The first one who was named immediately cheered, ran over quickly, opened the ridge of his house, and almost wept with joy as he watched the mountain spring flow in, soaking the dry and cracked earth.

One family clicked, and then one family ran to wait for their turn to soak in their fields. The first one is naturally happy, and the last one is not in a hurry - because the amount of water is larger than expected, sooner or later everyone will be able to pour it.

Each family can water a pillar of incense at the same time, and when the time is up, they will change to the next one, so as to ensure that nearly 300 acres of fields on the slope can be watered in one day, and Ye Chang's own more than ten acres will be left to water the most. With such a distribution, no one has anything to say, and the last in line is dissatisfied, and they will also be scolded by the elderly neighbors: Who asked you not to work hard when digging a ditch to divert water, and the eleven lang of the family is the most reluctant, you are earlier than him, what else is not satisfied?

Ye Chang himself saw that there was nothing to do, so he rubbed Xiang'er's bun and scattered the three buns of the little girl, and walked back with a smile. Xiang'er pouted, but soon became happy again, and walked up and down beside him, sometimes picking the weeds by the roadside, sometimes chasing the dancing butterflies.

Although it was a little hot, the air was still very fresh, Ye Chang slightly unbuttoned the placket on his chest, revealing a small half of his chest, and only felt that his heart was full of joy.

Some people are happy, some people are unhappy, and Liu Gui, who is also following behind Ye Chang, is one of the most unhappy.

He had a melancholy look on his face and struggled to walk.

Even his master, Ye Neem, ran back in disgrace, let alone him. Liu Gui knew in his heart that he would not have a good life by Ye Chang's side, but now that his body deed was still in Ye Chang's hands, how could he get out?

If you can't do it, you can only be a fugitive slave......

But the law of the Tang Dynasty decrees that fugitive slaves must be severely punished, he grew up in the Liu family, and later came to the Ye family as a dowry boy, where can he escape?

Thinking of this, he looked at Ye Chang's back with resentment, and quietly spat on Ye Chang's back.

"Xiang'er, I'll go to the sect leader's house first, and you can prepare a meal." After entering the village, Ye Chang instructed: "Liu Gui, you chop the firewood at home." ”

Xiang'er responded happily, and Liu Gui's response was weak. After Ye Chang turned to the road leading to the sect chief's house, Liu Gui's eyes rolled, and he walked behind Xiang'er for a while, taking advantage of Xiang'er's inattention, and immediately turned to the other side.

He turned to the home of the three-room long branch.

The three-room long branch is much more magnificent than the other two, and the three-room mansion is second only to the patriarch's house in the entire Wuze. There were a total of eleven domestic servants in the third room, and Liu Gui was originally one of them, so he was completely familiar with the road when he entered.

When I entered the courtyard, I heard Liu scolding: "You old plague student, didn't you use the gold at the bottom of the box for prostitution, otherwise why don't you have a penny left?" You said that you bought moso bamboo at a high price, and you look at you with a shrewd appearance on weekdays, and spend 30 wen to buy moso bamboo? ”

Sandwiched between the scolding, there were two occasional cries, and of course more of course the whining of the broom. Liu Gui's heart jumped suddenly, obviously, the Liu family was implementing family law on Ye Neem.

"Lady, lady, I really bought bamboo...... We have been married and married for many years, don't you still know about me? The little livestock colluded with the bamboo seller, and raised the price to a high price, thirty wen a piece......

"The old husband and wife have been going on for so many years, and the old lady knows even more that you are a dog and can't be changed to eat to death. When did the old lady's money pass through your hands, don't you scrape a layer? Liu said sharply: "If Liu Gui is still there, Liu Gui will go out with you, and the old lady will rest assured, but now it is Ye He who is going out with you, this dog is the son of your Liu family, and he has always been used to you, and he will definitely collude with you to trap me!" ”

Liu didn't guess wrong, Ye Neem ordered the bamboo at a price of 20 wen each, but when he came back, it was 30 wen each, so he fell a gold coin worth three times. He felt weak in his heart, and naturally smiled on his face: "The lady said that I am laughing, I want to do something with your money now, and now I only think about one thing in my heart, that is, how to rectify that little animal ......"

His skill of marrying is quite outstanding, and sure enough, the purpose of the Liu family is transferred to Ye Chang, although Ye Chang's house is not big, but it is on the edge of their long branch, plus the surrounding base, if it is merged into the long branch, his three-entry house can be expanded into two more cross-courtyards, not to mention the Zongtian under the name of the three branches, there are still nearly twenty acres. Therefore, Liu cursed: "You surnamed Ye don't have a good thing...... Who's going to be there to probe your brain, get the old lady in! ”

Liu Gui was looking outside the door, listening to the scolding, and suddenly ran in, knelt in front of Liu, and then howled: "Lady, the villain is bitter, the villain wants to go back to the lady's side......"

In the Tang Dynasty, the servants were called their own hostess, and they could be called Mrs. or Mrs. Liu Gui is the son of the Liu family, and he came to the Ye family with a small bridal servant, so he prefers to be called the lady of the Liu family. Sure enough, Liu saw that he was about to have a seizure, and he shouted a little embarrassed: It was she who stuffed Liu Gui to Ye Chang's side.

And in the past few days, Liu Gui has been by Ye Chang's side, and he has not suffered less!

"How did you come here, didn't you let you watch the little beast for his movements?" Ye Chang, who was originally kneeling next to him, saw Liu Gui coming, his old face was slightly red, and he got up and scolded.

"I'm not ashamed, kneel for my mother!" Before he stood up, Liu came with a broom and knocked him to his knees again.

"Lady, if it weren't for the fact that this dog slave didn't keep an eye on the little animal, I wouldn't have been calculated by him, the little animal ordered Liu Kun to collude with the bamboo seller, and this dog slave didn't know anything about it!" Ye Neem was kneeling, but his mouth was full of hatred.

It is by no means uncommon for people to be afraid of their wives like tigers in the Tang Dynasty, and the fierce wife of Fang Xuanling, the famous minister of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, is the origin of jealousy. Therefore, Liu Gui was not surprised that Ye Neem knelt in front of Liu, but he didn't see it. Hearing that Ye Neem pushed the responsibility on his head, Liu Gui cried and said: "It's not that the villain doesn't care, it's really that...... Eleven Lang is too cunning! ”

Ye Neem shrunk his neck, and these words went to his heart. He just saw Ye Chang using the bamboo pipe siphon method to divert water, he was already suspicious, and he suspected that Ye Chang really had an immortal behind him, and now he was forced to make an enemy of Ye Chang because of his wife's obscenity.

Deep down in his heart, he actually wants to reconcile.

"Cunning...... Liu Gui, you have disappointed me so much. Liu didn't think so.

She hadn't seen the completion of the canal with her own eyes, and in her mind, even if Ye Chang had really met any immortals, that immortal didn't have much friendship with him, otherwise he should have given the elixir to cross him into an immortal. And when a woman is paranoid, it is extremely terrifying, and this is even more true of menopause like Liu's, she is full of resentment, and it can be said that Ye Chang must be eliminated quickly: "Liu Gui, if you don't have a way to deal with that little animal, you can stay with the little animal and be a cow and horse for the rest of your life!" ”

Liu Guizi didn't want to stay by Ye Chang's side, and when he heard this, he had to rack his brains. After a while, he whispered, "It's not that there is no way, that little ...... That Eleven Lang has always had few contacts, and the people he relies on are only Shulangjun and his brother-in-law Liu Langjun of the second branch, if they can cut off the help of these two sides, and only rely on him and Xiang'er's little girl, what can be done? ”

This suggestion made Liu nod again and again, even Ye Neem, and he felt that it was feasible.

"I want to go back to my mother's house, Liu Kun's little animal, dare to help the little animal deal with me, let him know that I am powerful!" Liu Shi stared at Ye Neem again: "You go and follow the sect leader...... No, now the sect chief is also a little biased about the little animals, you go and tell Uncle Jiu, let Uncle Jiu come out to the sect chief again, take Ye Shu away, and let him come back after the matter is over! ”
