Now that the bait has been thrown, all that remains is to wait slowly. Besides, the arrangement of this formation is difficult to achieve without a month or two, and what she has is patience.

Just when Gu Tianxing was busy collecting this windfall into his own territory, Shenle Village, which was thousands of miles away, was already panicked and trivial.

This is the eighteenth time that the ancient patriarch has come to the ancient father's house, "Ying Min, Anxia really didn't say anything before going out with Tuan Tuan?" You secretly give me a thorough explanation, can we still get through this level? ”

It's not that his old man likes to annoy others, but he really feels uncomfortable.

Since last year, eight of their families fled here and come here, and until now, it has not rained!

The well in the village is getting shallower and shallower, and I am afraid that it will not be able to hold on for miles.

The old father looked at his brother's white hair, and the folds on his face were almost pulled together, and warmly washed him a bowl of sugar water and handed it over.

"What are you talking about, the two children went out without saying anything.

By the way, the immortal seeds in the ground should be ripe, right? Ming'er, my family will take a look at it first, and if it is suitable, I will quickly take it back. ”

The old father was also worried, and he was even more worried that his youngest son and granddaughter would not be safe outside. I heard that the county has drawn a lot of people to guard the city gate, and there is a lot of chaos outside.

The threshold of their own house is about to be broken by the old and young masters in the village, but what is the use of this! You just lie at my house every day, Tuan Tuan is not there, God should not rain or not!

"That's a good dare, I've been thinking about this for the past two days, but I feel that the immortal seeds are ripening too quickly, and it's a little unsteady."

This is a major event for every household now, and the immortal seed has been planted for four or five months, and according to the records in the Tuan Tuan Codex, it should be ripe.

Early in the morning, as soon as the old father and his sons arrived at the ground, they found that Ji Li was already waiting with the whole village.

Since Gu Tianxing's great might, the intrigue between the new households and the indigenous factions in the village has disappeared, after all, not everyone has the courage to compete with the "immortals".

Besides, the Gu family also gave some immortal seeds to each family and taught everyone to plant them, so you can't be ungrateful.

"Lizheng, everyone is here, you got up early enough this morning, didn't you sleep all night?" The old dad pretended to joke calmly.

Actually, God knows how nervous his old man is!

The grain storage at home has bottomed out, the grain shop in the county has long been closed, and the farmer next to the village cannot be planted after a long drought and no rain, which is the hope for the whole family to survive this year.

Everyone didn't reply, their eyes widened, and they all went straight to the cluster of dead leaves that the old father was digging up.

Out! The old father felt that there were hard bumps under the soil, and he immediately rubbed a lot, one, two...... The more the old man dug up, the more excited he became, and his face turned red.

Gu Da wanted to go up to help, but he was pushed away by his own father and fell a fart.

"Quick! Get the scales! What are you doing with the pestle?! ”

The old big three steps and two steps ran to take the second brother's hand, and put a few big lumps on it tremblingly.

"Eight, six and seven taels!" He shouted happily. Don't be excited, it's just a cluster of production!

"Really?!!Let me see."

"Let me take a look, too."

The villagers were not sure for a while, until Ji Lizheng, the ancient patriarch, and several elders of the older generation lay on the ground in tears and kowtowed to the ground to thank God, and their hanging hearts were solid.

Thinking of the immortal seeds planted by themselves, everyone was red-eyed, and they knelt down and shouted, "There is salvation!" It took a while to get up.

"Don't look at it, it's modest to calculate the yield of fifty quintals per mu like this. Now that the immortal seeds are ripe, each family will go to the field to harvest it, so as not to stay there in a panic! ”

But no, in these days, only when the grain enters the warehouse can you sleep peacefully. The big guy scattered back to get the frame and hoe, and ran as fast as he could.

Fortunately, it is not difficult to put away potatoes and sweet potatoes, and little dolls who are several years old can dig them out of the soil.

Almost all of the more than 30 households in Shenle Village were mobilized, and the work was completed in less than four or five days.

The village has just had a bumper harvest, and the big guys are in a good mood. As for the matter of water, they invariably chose not to mention it, as if they forgot it and it was really fine.

On the day of the straight road, Gu An's and Ji Dafa's mother-in-law fought by the well.

"You black-hearted, you clearly see that I am coming, so you will pour the water for washing vegetables into the well! Who are you going to disgust! ”

"Put your mother's crooked fart, you lazy woman's own bucket is not clean, and you are still burying people here!"

The two of you went back and forth, scolded each other, and finally got started.

There was no way to make trouble, and Patriarch Gu and Ji Rizheng had to stand up and uphold justice.

The old patriarch glanced at the mouth of the well and was shocked, "Why did it come down so quickly!" "I saw two days ago that the water level was much higher than this!

When Ji Li heard this, he didn't care about the mother-in-law's crying, and hurriedly stepped forward to check, "This! Dafa, go and knock on the gong to call everyone, there is something to discuss! ”

Seeing that the man who was so angry that he was still stunned, he shouted angrily: "What a daze!" Your mother-in-law has rough skin and thick flesh, and if you don't go to the gong, something big will happen! ”

After finally gathering people on the ground, looking at the men squatting on the ground, Jiri was troubled again. Usually one or two are quite noisy, but at this critical time, they all become dumb.

"Patriarch Gu doesn't know what he thinks? I'm afraid that the water in the well won't last long. "This is the way the big guy lives, but you can't bother yourself alone.

"Why don't you dig another well?" The ancient patriarch tentatively mentioned that he didn't understand this, and only guessed that maybe there would be water here if there was no water in another place.

Everyone didn't think this was a good idea, but if they didn't act now, they would have to travel sixty or seventy miles away to fetch water in half a month.

Ji Li was collecting a basket of grain from door to door, and planned to take it to a neighboring village to invite Liu Laosan, a professional well driller.

"Your old man's face is naturally to be given, but the ugly words are ahead, in case you don't find a place to get water, this ration will not be returned."

To be honest, Liu Laosan has not lacked business recently, and there are many people looking for him to dig wells. But it hadn't rained for a long time, so how could he be sure that he would be able to find a water source?

In the first two villages, because they could not help them find a water source, they turned around and ruthlessly asked him to return the grain.

If it was like this in previous years, those who do this business should also speak a letter. But now that the family depends on this little thing for their survival, how can they pay it back?

Ji Li understood the hardships involved, nodded and said proudly: "This is the right way, if you can get water, we will give you another ten baskets of grain in Shenle Village." ”

Liu Laosan was a little stunned, this Shenle Village has always been famous for being poor and remote, but he didn't expect to have this courage? !

However, as long as there was food, he didn't ask any more questions, and took his two sons to Shenle Village with him.

"The first step in drilling this well is to look at the water vein, find the water source, and look at it more." Liu Laosan bent over the village and looked at the ground carefully, and explained to everyone.

As for how to find a water source, it's actually very simple, just find a place with lush vegetation.

They usually look for mugwort bushes, and the wells under them are not only prosperous but also delicious. It's just that these eating skills naturally can't be told to outsiders.

Liu Laosan has walked around the vicinity of Shenle Village twice, and his forehead is already densely covered with beads of sweat, this village is doing a great job, it seems that he has to look at the mountainside.

"The terrain is slightly flatter under the two mountain mouths, and wells are dug at the entrances of the locks." This is one of their mantras.

"Isn't that too far?" The people in the village are a little reluctant, this is all into the mountains, how many more unjust roads to take? The point is that in the years of famine, there are often wild beasts that go down the mountain to eat people, and it is dangerous here.

In fact, Gu Orion also drilled wells, and worked with well craftsmen for a lot of days when he was poor. Before, Ji Li was saying that he would ask someone to dig a well, but his family was not short of food and was unwilling to take this job, so he didn't say anything.

Now I see that everyone hasn't paid attention to the lack of water, and they are also a little anxious to risk sparks.

"It's not a matter of distance or proximity right now, it's whether we'll die of thirst! I went to the mountains because there was no water source in the village! ”

After such a roar, everyone was quiet, and Liu Laosan nodded at him and smiled friendlyly. The hardest thing in these years is to be considerate of other people's difficulties, because it is not easy for everyone.

"Your village is doing a lot of work, and the water veins are not visible, so I will look for it again in the mountains outside here.

If there is no better one, then you can only fight next to the vegetable field at the entrance of the village and take a look. But there's not much certainty of water coming out there! ”

Although he really wanted to earn the ten catties of food, he had to face the reality.
