Chapter 69: The History of the Farmer's Struggle 15
For a moment, crying erupted.
The eyes are dark gray colors, and the mourning of everyone makes the scene even more sad.
Xi Jiang's brain is also spinning rapidly, and he has to think of an emergency solution. But it seems that there is no better way than to dig a well. There must be water underground, but it is very difficult to get water up.
Is it just manpower? She can't take out other complicated farm tools!
How can she understand so much as a little kid?
"Xiaobai, probe. Where is the best place to dig a well in this area? Xi Jiang asked.
"The probe costs 5 merit points, and it lasts for twelve hours."
"Okay, let's explore!"
Then, Xi Jiang pretended to faint and fell into Li's arms.
Seeing that Xi Jiang fainted, Li was so anxious that he hurriedly carried Xi Jiang to the side in a cool place.
She thought that Xi Jiang had the summer heat, which would kill people.
The village chiefs of the three villages also came over at this time, but none of them wanted to back down, because their village was not enough. August and September will only get hotter, and how much water will be left by then.
Tian Fengming saw that the three parties were deadlocked, and the youngest daughter fainted again, so he didn't care, so that Tian Qingming stared at it. Follow Li by himself and check on Xi Jiang's situation.
"How?" Tian Fengming said anxiously.
Li touched Xi Jiang's forehead and shook his head, "It's okay, it should be hot." ”
"Daughter-in-law, hurry up and take Xing'er back! We've got us! Wang also touched Xi Jiang's forehead, and put his hand into Xi Jiang's neckline, seeing that Xi Jiang didn't sweat much, he felt a lot more relieved.
At this time, Xi Jiang walked over slowly, his eyes shining.
Tian Fengming and the others were a little puzzled for a moment, is this kid okay?
Xi Jiang pulled Tian Fengming's sleeve and said softly: "Daddy, let's dig a well!" There is water underground. In the next two months, the weather will be even hotter. ”
Hearing Xi Jiang's words, Tian Fengming had hope on his face, and said in surprise: "Xing'er, isn't it?" ”
Tian Fengming's words were not finished, but everyone present knew what it meant. The Li family and the Wang family also had smiles on their faces, and the Tian family firmly believed that Xi Jiang was a person who was blessed by the gods, and this time he must also be a god manifestation.
Xi Jiang nodded stubbornly, "Daddy, I know where water can come out of the village." ”
Xi Jiang probed Xiaobai out of the place and said it carefully.
"Okay, Daddy go talk to the village chief."
Tian Fengming walked back to the crowd and watched for a while.
At this time, the people on the side of Ikeda Village and Wangjia Village began to argue again. Linjia Village deserves sympathy, but they also have to live!
Naturally, Linjia Village is not compromising, they are already exhausted.
The situation between the two sides was a little tense, and it was almost like a fight.
Tian Fengming sighed and said, "It's useless for us to argue like this, the water in the river can't last for two months." ”
"What then? Just watch the rice seedlings die? ”
"What if it rains in the back?"
"At least I have to promise not to die now!"
Everyone at the scene was diverted by Tian Fengming and began to discuss.
"Dig a well! There must be water underground. Tian Fengming suggested.
On the side, Tian Qingming was a little surprised and confused, but disappeared in an instant.
"Digging a well? This well is not so easy to drill, and we know where there is water! ”
"What if the water doesn't come out? This time and physical strength are wasted, so it is better to quickly carry more water to the field. ”
"Yes! Even the old well diggers don't know where the water is? How do we know? ”
Tian Fengming naturally knew that everyone would not agree easily, so he said blindly without blushing and heartbeat: "Our old man used to dig a well, and everyone must know it." The well has not been watered for so many years. ”
"Can you find the man who drilled the well?"
Tian Fengming shook his head, "The person who drilled the well has already gone a few years ago. But when he was digging a well for our house, he mentioned it to my father that our place was actually a blessed land. He said at the time that there were several places where the water could be quickly discharged.
There was no shortage of water at that time, and we didn't care. Now that I think about it, it comes in handy. ”
"Is that man so godly?" Everyone present was skeptical.
After the two brothers Tian Fengming went through the water festival, they still had weight in their words in the village. After all, people always subconsciously believe in capable people.
"That well digger heard that the ancestor had a secret technique, and he could judge where there was water according to the terrain and the trend of the river. It's magical. Tian Qingming came out to give his eldest brother a platform.
At this time, he had already seen that the eyes of the little niece on the side were shining. Although the sister-in-law and the mother pretended to be worried, he knew that the two of them were in a very relaxed mood. It seems that this is the little niece who has been favored by God again.
The Tian brothers all said this, and everyone was a little worried.
If that works, that's great. It's just a matter of effort, and the last thing the peasant family lacks is a handful of strength.
"Where is that place? Is it close to here? The village chief of Linjia Village hurriedly said.
If they could get out of the water, they would have more reason to come to the river to fetch water.
The chief of Ikeda Village was silent for a moment, and then made a decision, "Toyomei, then you can take us to see it!" ”
Tian Fengming led everyone and walked towards the place where Xi Jiang told him.
It wasn't far away, just a low-lying part of the village. It is not particularly far from the paddy fields in the village, a few meters away.
Deep in the mountains near here, there is a huge underground river. The place that Xi Jiang said was a surface tributary of the underground river.
Tian Fengming walked at the front of the team, Xi Jiang followed closely, holding Tian Fengming's clothes with his little hands, and he looked well-behaved and clever, like a daughter who admired his father.
Xi Jiang pointed his finger to the front slightly, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Daddy, that's it." ”
Tian Fengming remained silent and walked towards the place. Xi Jiang tugged at the corner of his coat and signaled that this was it.
Behind him, Tian Qingming kept watching the movements of the two, and his heart became more and more graspful. Maybe it doesn't seem like anything to ordinary people as just a father-daughter interaction, but people who know the inside story don't think so.
Tian Fengming turned around and stomped his feet, and said to everyone: "That's what the man said here, about a foot and a half of digging down, and you should be able to get out of the water." ”
Everyone didn't listen very deeply, and it didn't hurt to try, the most important thing was to have some trust in Tian Fengming.
It just so happens that there is a man in Wangjia Village who can dig wells, but he only knows how to dig wells, and he will not look at where there is water. In the well digging team, that is, a helper.
The well driller in Wangjia Village hurriedly brought the tools from home.
The village chief of Linjia Village also gave the strong young men in the village a look and asked them to hurry forward to help. Now that they are doing more, there will be no water in the river in the future, and maybe they will be able to come to this well to fetch water!
When everyone was busy, the village chief of Wangjia Village and the village chief of Linjia Village came to Tian Fengming's side, "I don't know if the old well driller said or not, where is there a good place to dig wells in our village?" ”
