Chapter 68: The History of the Farmer's Struggle 14

On this day, the weather was a little cooler, and Xi Jiang followed the adults to the paddy field to weed.

In the farmhouse, a ten-year-old child like Xi Jiang has already begun to work in the fields. But the Tian family has only two juniors, and they don't have such high requirements for Xi Jiang and Tian Tang on weekdays.

Compared with ordinary farm children, the two of them look a lot more detailed.

Looking at the water level in the water that was not deep, and the rice seedlings were listless, Wang sighed, "Alas! This year, I am afraid that the yield in this field will be reduced again. ”

"We're okay. I heard that in a few villages downstream, many paddy fields can't even turn off water, just just wet the seedling roots. The fellow villagers who were busy working in the fields next door sighed.

"Alas! When is this day going to be the end!"

"Not really. The hotter the summer, the colder the winter. It seems that this winter will be even colder, and I am afraid that there will be another toss here. ”

"You can prepare more cotton clothes this year, otherwise I am afraid that I will not be able to survive this winter."

"I can't eat enough, where will I get the money to buy cotton clothes."

"You have to live, let's be more prepared!"

Listening to everyone's conversation, Xi Jiang suddenly remembered his corn and sweet potatoes. Later, she cut sweet potato vines in several waves, and some of them were specially selected on the hillside, and she didn't know if they could grow.

The corn seedlings around the yard are almost in flowering, and the male flowers on the top of the plants and the female flowers on the corn bales below have been pulled out.

After a while, a slightly thin young man shouted, "The fight has started, the fight has started, and the downstream ones have come to steal water." ”

When the people heard this, it was worth it, and now water is more precious than gold. If the water is stolen, what will happen to their paddy fields?

"Ergouzi, who do you say steals the water? Where is it? The nearby villager hurriedly grabbed the young man and asked hurriedly.

"The people from Linjia Village downstream, they have already stolen a lot of water from Xiaoyingkou." The young guy said quickly. After saying that, he hurried to the next place, and he had to inform the whole village.

Everyone didn't get rid of the grass, and hurriedly ran to the small dark mouth.

The small dark mouth, as the name suggests, is a relatively hidden place by the river. Although this place is hidden, there is a large stone slab that supports it, and it is a good place to wash clothes and get water. But because it's far from Ikeda Village, no one usually goes there.

Another nearby village, which has a better place to get water, also rarely goes here.

I didn't expect someone to take advantage of the loophole and come here to steal water.

By the time everyone arrived at the small secret mouth, the small secret mouth had already gathered a lot of people.

Someone has already been injured, and there are some bruises on his face and arms. One side was indignant, and the other was ashamed, but he did not flinch at all.

"You thieves, you have come to steal our water."

"You still have to be shameless, I don't know how precious this water is to us."

"A water thief will not die well."

was scolded, and those people were naturally unwilling, and some people went back.

"Humph! Do you know that when this water came to us, there was only a brook left? ”

"Most of the paddy fields in our village are dry, and the rice seedlings in the fields are dying."

As he spoke, the swarthy men cried, "If Daomiao dies, how can we live!" ”

"Let's pick some water!"

"Our village is working on this little bit of water, and I don't know where this year's tax is?"

The one who scolded was Wangjia Village, which was closest to Ikeda Village, and the one who asked for water was Linjia Village, which was mentioned by the young man before, and Linjia Village was at the very end of the entire river.

The people in Linjia Village begged as much as they could, and the people who were full of energy and high morale before were a little silent.

If water is given today, what will happen to their paddy fields? The water level in the river is now only about half a meter, which is at least two months before the harvest? Will this water last for two months?

The more people in Linjia Village spoke, the more desperate they became, and some of the village women sat on the ground and wept loudly, crying and complaining about this difficult day and asking for their lives.

This cry, all the emotions came up.

The hardships, constraints, and grievances on weekdays were all vented at this moment, affecting the silent crowd.

Xi Jiang and Tian Tang watched from the sidelines.

Tian Tang's eyes were already red. Growing up in a farmhouse, she knows exactly how hard life is. Because of this, she is more empathetic.

At this time, Tian Tang really hopes that a big hero who will save the world will appear to help these people and help them.

Xi Jiang also felt a little emotional, but she couldn't do anything now.

In ancient times, agriculture relied almost entirely on surface water, that is, the amount of water brought by rivers. But now that the weather is dry, the water volume of the river has decreased, and even the water level of the well with the ginger family has dropped very much, and it cannot be alleviated at all.

Deeper groundwater, with the technology of this era, is not to be thought of.

And Xi Jiang knows that this is the world's normal climate regulation, and in the short term, it will indeed be worse. But stretching the timeline to a hundred years, a thousand years, this is normal.

Xi ginger can't be taken out without authorization, something beyond this era.

Otherwise, it will take a lot of energy for the world to adjust. Xi Jiang has carefully studied history in the last world and the previous world. She found that the vast majority of technologies that were ahead of their time were not effectively used at all. On the contrary, under the washing of time, it disappears into invisibility.

Otherwise, archaeologists have unearthed so many amazing technologies that even modern societies with advanced technology cannot do. But these techniques have not been handed down, why?

The reason for this is that it does not conform to the laws of development of the world and is beyond the control of the world.

Moreover, the level of this world is not high, the ability to control the world consciousness is limited, and if you are not careful, everything will be ruined. It's like a delicate instrument, pulling a hair and moving the whole body.

The world's ability to regulate is limited, and if it exceeds its capacity too much, it will collapse.

Without the control of the world's consciousness, huge natural disasters, tsunamis, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other most frequent natural activities will appear in front of the world in an even more violent situation.

And this is still the least consequence. What's even more terrifying is that without the regulation of world consciousness, this world will soon be swallowed up by other more powerful worlds, and will hardly give you a chance to correct your mistakes.

So in every world, Gu Yu is careful not to have a bad impact on the world.
