Chapter 195: Investigation
Meng Yuxuan said to the maid next to her: "You take Lin'er to stay in the carriage, don't go anywhere." If we don't come back, don't come out. ”
Yahuan respectfully replied 'yes'.
Meng Yuxuan took Shangguan Xi's hand and said to Yeyi: "You send a few people to protect Lin'er and a few maids who don't know martial arts, let's go see those dry wells." ”
"Yes." The night answered coolly.
Under the leadership of Ye Er, Meng Yuxuan, Shangguan Xi and Hui Ling inspected the dry wells. The whole town was so hot that the ground had long since cracked. The dry wells have not been used for a long time, and they have been filled with all kinds of mud. Looking at such a large city, there is not a single container for water.
"Princess, it hasn't rained for so many years, this place is also quite strange." Hui Ling looked around and said, "It's very evil. ”
"That's why it's called a place forsaken by God." Yeji interjected next to him. "The city not far from here gets a lot of rain every year, but it doesn't rain in this place."
"Since it's raining not far from here, they can move there." Hui Ling sympathized with what those people were doing, but was somewhat unable to understand their methods.
"Didn't you just say that? People here are chronically ill, and people elsewhere are reluctant to take them in. Meng Yuxuan said to Hui Ling: "Actually, it is understandable, after all, people in this era pay attention to auspiciousness. When they encounter such a thing, it is no wonder that they will be disliked by others. But what is wrong with them? Why do this to them? Especially those kids. ”
"The situation here is simply not something that can be changed by man. No wonder the emperor gave the prince a city so generously. He's just watching the prince's jokes! Hui Ling pouted and said unhappily, "Princess, do we want to stay here?" If a pond city is too depressed, we can still change it with manpower. But if even God gives up......"
"God is fair, and He will not give up on any of his people. The people of the world, all equal, why are they abandoned? Meng Yuxuan looked at Hui Ling seriously. I believe that man can conquer the sky. So, I won't give up on this place. This is the king's, and I will give him a rich city. ”
"What is the princess going to do?" Yeji said lightly.
"The biggest problem right now is that there is no rain here. Without rain, not a single inch of grass grows, and even life cannot be sustained. As soon as the water problem is solved, something will change here. Meng Yuxuan looked at the sky and said, "I have to find a way to solve the water source here." ”
"If there is only a lack of food, lack of medicinal materials, lack of fabric, and lack of all daily necessities, my subordinates believe that the princess can get it. But the water ...... That's not something you can get your hands on if you want to. Could it be that the princess intends to bring water from somewhere else for decades, centuries, or even forever and ever? In this way, it is better to start a new city earlier, which will save some effort. ”
Ye Er scoffed at Meng Yuxuan's words.
This new secret guard is a straightforward character, as long as he doesn't like it, he will say it directly, and he doesn't care about the identity of Meng Yuxuan, the hostess.
"How can you talk like that?" Hui Ling couldn't listen anymore. She glared at Yeji and said, "The princess is also thinking about everyone. Aren't you thinking about it now? Why are you so weird. ”
Ye Er didn't give Meng Yuxuan face at all, and disdained Hui Ling's reprimand: "The subordinates just tell the truth." If you can't tell the truth, your subordinates won't speak. ”
"Huiling, forget it. Yeji wasn't wrong. Meng Yuxuan interrupted Hui Ling's words. He was right. However, he misunderstood. I didn't think about bringing water from somewhere else. ”
"If we don't bring water from somewhere else, where do we get it?" This time, Hui Ling was also dumbfounded.
Meng Yuxuan touched her wrist. God didn't give her water, so she conjured up her own water. The only thing you can use is space. Just, will it be useful?
Is the spiritual spring in the space really inexhaustible? With the watering of the spiritual spring, the plants here should be able to grow quickly. But in that case, will the strange phenomenon here attract the attention of others? She'd have to come up with a plan to make everything fall into place.
Why is there no water? God, why are you so here? Would you like to give some water to the townspeople here?
Meng Yuxuan thought of the study in the space. She needed to find a solution from within. This is no longer within her reach. She wondered if the fairy had left a solution.
They looked at the dry wells, the dry rivers, the barren land, and finally the few remaining century-old trees. While everyone wasn't paying attention to her, she dripped spatial water on the roots of the old trees.
"The vitality of these old trees is really strong." Hui Ling lay on the ground and looked at it, and said suspiciously, "There should be a water source down here!" How can they survive so long without water? ”
"There must be water underground." Meng Yuxuan looked at the sky. "Let's go back! It's not early. Don't linger outside at night, after all, the environment is so harsh. ”
"Yes." Hui Ling stood up and helped Meng Yuxuan to walk back.
Meng Yuxuan looked around, her brows furrowed deeply. Just now she climbed up the tree to take a look at the situation nearby, and found something.
There were two mountains near the city, and those two mountains looked bare, but from the mountains came the roar of beasts. It means that if there are wild beasts in the mountains, there must also be water sources.
There is a water source in the mountains, so it must be a place surrounded by greenery. As long as there are plants and animals, then there is no shortage of food. But the townspeople would rather starve to death than go, so ......
What exists there is very scary. Maybe that's what the butler said...... A race that the emperor did not dare to provoke.
Return to the mansion. By this time, everyone had already cleaned up the house. Although it is not as luxurious as the royal palace, it is also the best place to stay in this place.
This time she brought a lot of supplies, so everyone was not short of food. After rushing for so many days in a row, Meng Yuxuan asked everyone to have a good rest, and other things will be talked about tomorrow.
Night. The stars in the sky blinked, and the beautiful moon looked down on this silent city.
The city that has not been lit for many years has finally lit up the candles, and this night the residents of the whole city looked at the rare light, and their feelings were complicated. They think about what they heard during the day, and they have expectations and confusion in their hearts. After all, they are outcasts, can they really get warmth?
"Old man, we're all one of us in the coffin. Dead is dead, nothing to fear. It's just our grandson ......," said an old woman to the old man lying there in the dilapidated house. She held a young child in her arms, and a look of distress and guilt appeared on her old face. "It was not good for me at the beginning. If it weren't for me, this child would have left with his parents. ”
"What do you blame? The child was brought up by you, he was reluctant to let you go, and he didn't want to leave with his father, that was his filial piety. The old man, who had not spoken, said sullenly.
"But we're dying. There wasn't much food left for us last time. If what the princess said is true, we can still be saved. If it's fake, we won't live for a few days. We can't just wait for the help of our benefactors! The old woman said tiredly.
"Hmm. Tomorrow...... Let's see how it goes! The old man said, coughing incessantly.
When the old woman heard his cough, she was very distressed. She wiped her tears and looked at the moon in the sky and prayed that such days of suffering would end.
In the only candlelit room in the city, Meng Yuxuan quietly entered the study of the space while everyone was asleep. She flipped through the books and finally understood why the city had no water.
"It turns out that there really is such a thing as a formation in this world. According to historical records, the general Wu Ling was defeated in a battle domain, and at this time, a descendant of the Wu clan who knew how to form appeared in his army, and the descendant of the Wu clan laid out a magic circle, and soon a tornado appeared. So that battle finally made Wuling's reputation known. True witchcraft can not only call the wind and rain, but also control the solar terms. It hasn't rained here for years, so someone must have set it up. It's just that...... Who did it? How to break the formation? Meng Yuxuan sat in the study and muttered to herself.
Call! The book in front of me automatically turned a page.
Meng Yuxuan looked at the content in front of her and said in surprise: "I see...... If it's that simple, it's easy to do. ”
Understanding the reason why it didn't rain in Licheng, Meng Yuxuan fell asleep in the space. When she woke up, the space was still well-lit and the climate was spring.
She walked out of the space, only to see that it was still pitch black outside. The candle flame has burned out. There was no light in the room, and she was a little unaccustomed to it.
On the second day, Meng Yuxuan left the room early in the morning. Yeichi and Yeji were guarding outside, and when they saw her come out, the two of them stood in front of her.
"I know why it doesn't rain here." Meng Yuxuan said lightly: "I guess the reason is on the mountain." So I'm going up the mountain. ”
"Princess, there are beasts in the mountains, and you shouldn't risk it. If you want to investigate, we can go up the mountain instead of you. Yaichi said calmly.
"But I already know the reason, now I just need to find a way to solve it." Meng Yuxuan said unhappily: "Don't treat me as a child. I'm not that delicate. ”
"Then let the subordinates protect the princess." Yeichi insisted on doing so. "Please."
Meng Yuxuan knew that she couldn't stop their decision. She said to Yaji, "You must stay and protect them. We will be back soon. ”
Ye Er arched his hand and saluted, "Yes." ”
Meng Yuxuan glanced at the room where Hui Ling was resting. Lin'er was handed over to Hui Ling to take care of these nights. She wanted to settle the matter here earlier, so she didn't take care of Lin'er.
