Volume 4 The Rising Star of the Imperial Capital 20 The First Water Tower 03
As the lower passage opened, the volume of the water tower increased rapidly, and the first test magic array could not detect the water level and went out. This magic array is the lowest water level of the alert magic array, when the water level is lower than it, the magic channel of the entire water tower will be automatically closed, cutting off the outward passage, and no longer supplying water to the outside, which is the result of the use of the magic array with intelligent judgment pioneered by Xu Zheng.
Seeing it extinguished, Xu Zheng was not as nervous as the first. All the sound of water and the light and whirlwind on the top of the water tower all represent that the entire water tower is working normally, Xu Zheng fell a big stone in his heart, stood beside Forrester, and paid attention to the work of the water tower.
The sound of the water is still non-stop, and the whole water tower is working well. Forrester turned his head to look at Xu Zheng's face and smiled, "You have surpassed me." ”
Xu Zheng was shocked and said, "Teacher, why do you say that?"
Forrester waved his hand and said, "Don't be nervous, I'll tell you the truth, you have surpassed me a lot in terms of design concept and practicality." It's just that when it comes to pure magic array knowledge, you're far inferior to me. But the most important thing in the use of the magic array is how to design and make it useful, and I am not as good as you in this regard. ”
Xu Zheng said sneeringly: "Teacher......"
Forrester smiled and said, "Do you think I'm frustrated? On the contrary, I am quite happy to have a disciple like you!hahaha!"
"Teacher ......"
Forrester smiled again: "I'm really happy. It is even more comforting for me that you are worried that you will surpass me, which proves that you are kind and loyal, and you don't have to worry about teaching your apprentice to starve your master. What am I not satisfied with?
Xu Zheng scratched his scalp embarrassedly and said, "That's the Master out of a high apprentice." ”
"The Master is a master?" said with a smile, "I love to hear this sycophant, hahaha! Garcia's old madman isn't as good as me. You already have such a level of alchemy, you can't release a single rotten magic. Hahaha. Leave the old madman behind!"
Bruce walked over and said to the two, "You two don't flatter each other. How long will it take for the lower channel to reach the minimum water level after it is opened?"
Xu Zheng made a rough estimate and said, "About the afternoon." ”
Bruce nodded and said, "Then wait slowly." But what's the point?"
Xu Zheng's heart moved, and he smiled: "You don't have to wait." With that, his face turned to the sky, and the dark gold beast pattern on his forehead appeared, and he summoned Lulu in his heart. After a while, Lulu spread her wings and flew in. crossed the top of everyone's heads, and landed beside Xu Zheng with wings. When it landed, the messy skin under his neck shook for a while, and the hairball, a ghostly thing, must be hidden inside. I had to chase Lulu out, but I refused to see anyone.
Xu Zheng tugged at his purring ears and said in a ghostly manner: "Go and inform Uncle Xius." Tell him not to stand guard at the gate of Ogma Academy, there is business to be done here. ”
Lulu flew away in response, and when he returned, he took with him four horneer carriages led by Hughes.
During this time, Uncle Hughes took his wildebeest carriage and mobile sales method to great success, and several of his friends with good brains also learned Hughes's way. In every possible way, Xu Zheng was asked to order this mobile vending truck. Xu Zheng and the two dwarves were still troublesome, but they couldn't resist Xiusi's request, and his friends sincerely paid a large deposit, and finally had to build four more cars, leaving one for backup, and the other three were sold. Zion's mobile vending horn carriage grew to four. They were as good as Theseus, buying snacks and wine from the fireflies and wilderness, and walking the streets and alleys all day long, covering the whole city of Zion. The three wildebeest coachmen, who had the courage to learn from Hughes and change their way of doing business, were like the first people to try crabs, and they made a lot of money.
When the four wildebeest carriages arrived, snacks and wine were sold, and the four wildebeest carriages roamed through the crowd, selling for a while at one point and then moving on to the next. People waited for boredom to go to the wildebeest to buy food and drink, or stood or sat waiting for the water tower to store water.
This scene reminds Xu Zheng of the situation when people were holding popcorn to watch the game when they watched the game in a large football stadium in the past. The atmosphere was very cheerful and lively.
Seeing Uncle Xiusi hurriedly collecting money and selling things, Xu Zheng happily ran over, grabbed a handful of things for Lulu to eat, and then used his privilege to hold a lot of ice cream for free and came back.
The scene is very interesting, the king and the people are happy, the ministers, nobles and commoners are mixed, most of them are holding ice cream or shaved ice, the king does not have the dignity of a king, the minister gives up the seriousness, and enjoys the coldness in the hot weather, waiting for the happy moment of the water tower to appear.
Xu Zheng sat on the ground in front of Dane with a milk ice cream in his hand, biting the ice cream and biting the white stains around his mouth. Dane saw it in his eyes, shook his head with a smile, and reached out to stroke Xu Zheng's head twice. Xu Zheng raised his head inexplicably and looked at Dane puzzled.
Dane smiled and said, "You're really capable." ”
"Huh?"
"Where you are, it's different. Dane looked at Xu Zheng with a doting eye and said, "You always make the atmosphere relaxed and happy, and your ideas can always evoke positive things in people's hearts." Seeing such a picture of harmony in front of me, I think that even if the water tower really fails and fails to achieve the desired effect, it is worth it to have such harmony and joy and celebrate the day together. Reaching out and stroking the smooth black hair on Xu Zheng's head, Dane relaxed his body and said, "My second son Jeff's temperament is very similar to yours, and he is also the kind of naughty and laughing character. But it's not as smart as you, it's better to care about people than you, it's not as considerate as you, it's not as good as you have so much ability. When Jeff died, my father and I were so sad that we thought the gods were really unfair, why did we take him away after giving him away?"
Xu Zheng stopped biting, looked at Dane in a daze, and said in surprise: "Uncle Dane......"
Dane shook his head with a smile, stopped Xu Zheng's words, and said, "With you, I think the gods are fair again." He took Jeff with him, but he sent you over. Sometimes I look at you. I feel that maybe God destined you to come to be the second son of my family to fill the vacancy of Jeff. I think. Maybe the gods are taking care of the Samuel family, or maybe Jeff feels that he shouldn't leave us, so he changes to a better you. Xu Zheng ......" Dane's smiling eyes were covered with a layer of moisture, and he tried to say something, but he couldn't seem to express it clearly. Finally, he sighed: "I don't know if I said it? Welcome to Samuel's house." No, it should be thank you for coming to Samus's house. As if you came, happiness and joy followed. ”
Xu Zheng couldn't hold his breath and said in a trembling voice: "Uncle Dane......"
"Hmm. Dane responded, blinking vigorously twice, forcing back the moisture in his eyes, and reaching out to comb Xu Zheng's scattered hair.
When the hand was placed on Xu Zheng's head. Xu Zheng trembled, leaned his back over, leaned his head back on Dane's knee, and said in a low voice: "I should say that I am the one who thanked me." First Uncle Carlow. And then there's you, and all my happiness and happiness are brought by you. I can't say it, but it's in my heart. You're all like fathers. With the Winged Tiger Father who raised me, I have three fathers! How lucky I am! I feel very happy every night before I go to bed, thank you, thank you to the unknown god who brought me here, my previous life...... All of a sudden, it was as if I had everything. I have parents, brothers and sisters, and a lot of friends. Happiness and happiness feel unreal. Will it be too happy and happy. Suddenly it's gone?"
Dane laughed, "Silly boy, what are you thinking? No one will not love you with such a temperament. The gods have sent you, and of course I will be optimistic about you. ”
Xu Zheng's heart was excited, and he subconsciously grabbed the corner of Dane's pants, his eyes were red and red, and he was about to say something, when he suddenly heard Bruce shouting happily: "Ahhh ”
Dane patted Xu Zheng's head and smiled, "Go quickly." ”
Xu Zheng jumped up, took two steps forward, turned his head again, and looked at Dane through the red circles under his eyes. Dane nodded and said silently, "I'm proud of you!"
A surge of excitement welled up, and tears quickly gathered in his eyes. Afraid that it would fall, Xu Zheng hung his head, rushed to Bruce's side, blinked violently a few times, and then forced a smile: "How long has it been bright?"
Bruce said, "It took about four hours to convert pure water faster than you and Mr. Forrester estimated. I remember you said that when the magic array of the lower limit is lit up, it means that the entire water tower has at least two-fifths of the water, right?"
Xu Zheng nodded.
Forrester walked over and said, "The purpose of setting a lower limit is to ensure that the tower will always have enough water in case of emergency. But now it's the first experiment, you can turn off the magic circle and manually open the access to test the water supply. ”
Bruce was overjoyed and said, "Xu Zheng, what do you say, do you want me to notify me immediately?"
The mood was still stirring, Xu Zheng just nodded.
Bruce's excited past was announced. Forrester went to close the magic circle that was the lower limit, and replaced the water from the water tower with a manual operation.
As the soldiers went down with the order, saying that they could open the water valve test, the crowd suddenly erupted in strong cheers. All the people who connected the water valve went to their homes happily, and without installing the water valve, they all followed the friends who installed the water valve with great interest, so that many nobles also followed because they were very interested. The area around the water tower was suddenly empty, leaving only the Samuel family and the ministers who accompanied them.
Bruce was so excited that he rubbed his hands together and said, "This is really an exciting time, nearly a month of hard work is about to be tested!"
Xu Zheng was also a little nervous, and said, "Let's go, Uncle Dane, let's go to the wilderness together and test the water situation there." ”
Compared with Xu Zheng's nervousness, Dane's calm royal bearing was much better, he just smiled lightly, waved his hand and led everyone to the wilderness.
When they arrived in the wilderness, a group of acquaintances were all there, and even Uncle Hughes's horneer was parked at the door, waiting in the wilderness early.
Seeing that the kings and ministers of the imperial capital had all gathered in the field, Lucina was nervous and happy, and for fear of being lazy, she hurriedly took out all the good wine and served it in front of everyone.
At this time, there were many people in the field, and there were no piles, and the civilians were very in awe of Samuel and his party, and stood aside, not standing, nor sitting. Seeing this, Carlo brought all the others to the fireflies next door. Lucina saw that Carlo was mobilized, and she also drove Aang and the small class and a group of other little ones to the fireflies.
The rest of the group gathered around the water valve, waiting for the final moment.
Bruce said, "Father, you're all set!"
Dane nodded, gesturing to the Minister of War. The Minister of War nodded calmly, walked quickly outside the house, raised his sword to the sky, and shouted, a huge moon-colored string moon-shaped sword qi broke away from the tip of the sword and rushed to the sky. The sword qi broke through the air and emitted a sharp whistling sound, which was the general signal of the boiling water valve.
Bruce exclaimed, "Here we go!"
Soon, a large cheer erupted from the east side of the city, not far from the lower town, and then the low sound of a horn was heard. Bruce raised his eyebrows and said, "It's done!
Then came the south, and the cheers followed by a low trumpet. Then to the west and north, there were crazy cheers, followed by a horn for success.
Forrester stroked his chin happily and said, "Looks like it really worked!"
Dane calmly gave the order and said, "Pass the order, open all the water valves, and see how long it can last." Dirk, start the timer. Now it's our turn in the middle to open the valve. He smiled at Bruce and said, "You like it so much, go ahead and open it." ”
Bruce was overjoyed and said, "Haha, I like this job!" Rushing in from the house, he threw himself at the water valve and turned the valve.
Holding the handle of the water valve, he was still quite excited about the final verification of the project in which he participated in the whole process, and Bruce took a deep breath before he opened the water valve all with a force.
