Chapter 54: The Great Drought
"Boundless, boundless, come on! The son of the world is awake! Bai Wufeng ran out like a gust of wind and shouted outside. Bai Wuya and Bai Wulan hurriedly ran over.
"Ahem...... What time is it? ”
Feng Xun rubbed his drowsy forehead, his voice was hoarse, revealing a sense of weakness.
Seeing this, Bai Wuya immediately handed a glass of water to Feng Xun.
The spiritual spring water entered his throat, moisturizing his body, and Feng Xun looked down and took a second look.
Bai Wuya explained: "You haven't eaten water for the past two days, and you can only barely eat something boiled with sweet water that you get without wind. ”
Hearing this, Bai Wufeng immediately told the truth, "It's exchanged with Dabao Niang, Shizi, do you want to meet it?" ”
"Not necessarily."
Feng Xun shook his head, pondered for a while, and then said, "Find a chance to change more." Wulan, ordered to go down and hurry up, cough cough ......" After only a few words, Feng Xun began to cough again.
"Don't gather around here, the prince has just woken up and needs to rest!"
Bai Wuya hurriedly drove everyone out to let Feng Xun rest.
The carriage was quiet, Feng Xun leaned back on the soft pillow and put away the remaining half of the water bladder.
This water is very rare, so I have to keep it for the girl in Kyoto to drink. That girl has always been good, and she likes to grab things with him the most, but she can't beat him, and every time she looks so angry, trying to make trouble for him......
As if remembering something happy, the pale face under the hat rarely smiled.
When the prince of Huainan woke up from his coma, Bai Wulan and the others were in a relaxed mood, and they took advantage of the sunny weather to hurry up. The team quickly walked out of the woods.
Passing through several abandoned villages, refugees rushed through their chests and cabinets, and even their tattered beds were opened, but there was not a single grain of food, so they had to go on their way hungry.
More and more people are falling, and more and more new refugees are joining in, and the huge refugee team is like a set gear, no matter how many people fall, they will unswervingly go north, and Kyoto is their only hope!
Over the hills, the group went deep into another mountain.
"It's weirdly hot!"
The old Orion touched his face, his hands were full of sweat!
Bai Shu also frowned, "It's only the beginning of May, and the weather is indeed a little abnormal. ”
"It may also be because we are gradually getting closer to the north, the north is already hotter than our south, don't think so much, hurry up first." Li was carrying a package and was sweating profusely from the heat.
"Ling Qing, it hasn't rained for more than ten consecutive days, I'm afraid it's going to be a big drought!"
"Great drought!"
Bai Lingqing's expression suddenly became serious.
Luo Lingzhi sensed the dryness in the air, and as the crowd walked north, the further north it went, the more rare the streams in the mountains became, but he was afraid that there would not be so many water sources in front of him, so he immediately ordered Bai Lingqing to use a bamboo tube to catch water and store it.
"This bamboo is hollow inside, Ling Qing, you ask the clansmen to cut it more, and tell everyone to store ten more days of water."
In the past month, Luo Lingzhi was pleasantly surprised that the space had been upgraded to another level, there were more than 100 acres of land that could be planted, and the rice maturity cycle of the space was about seven days.
Luo Lingzhi alone can feed tens of thousands of people, but there is only one stream in the space, and there is not much water left after watering the land. Adequate water resources must be ensured.
"I'll go!"
Bai Lingqing nodded immediately, he had always believed in Luo Lingzhi's words.
"What the Lingzhi girl said, then do it." When Bai Shu learned about it, he asked Bai Lingqing to take the young people of the clan to cut bamboo.
Old Orion, Li Zheng and others are also looking forward to Luo Lingzhi.
Qiao Erlang is the only one, but he is unwilling to move, and he is already tired of half his life every day, how can he still have the energy to chop bamboo.
"What drought? There is nothing else in this mountain, but there are many lakes and streams! ”
"No, no, no, are you stupid, this water is everywhere, what are you doing with that effort to cut bamboo to catch water?"
"It's just, the water is so heavy, I'm tired on my back!"
Aunt Qiao was carrying her luggage, she was so tired that she was panting, and when she heard Bai Lingqing say that she had to cut bamboo and carry water on her back, she immediately scolded, "It's Luo Lingzhi again, what kind of troublemaker is there, what kind of drought is there, I see that the weather is very normal, why did she say that the drought is a big drought, she really thinks she is a god!" ”
When Luo Lingzhi heard it, he didn't bother to pay attention to it, and grabbed Bai Lingqing, who was about to go up to explain, "Leave them alone, believe it or not." ”
Another widow with a full face also mocked, "What kind of geography did your son see from this time?" ”
"Why, do you envy me for having a smart son? Our mother and son are so clever that it is difficult to give up on themselves in three days, and envy is in vain! ”
Luo Lingzhi couldn't say that he had used his ability to detect it, and when he saw someone mention it, he immediately proudly went back.
She had already felt that the moisture in the air was getting less and less as she went north, and in the past few days, she had found that the spiritual power of the water and wood dual-system abilities in the air had dropped significantly, and it was rare.
I'm afraid there is no vegetation at the end of this mountain!
Be prepared, or prepare more drinking water.
"Those fools believe your Luo Lingzhi's ridiculous words, I can't do it, the thing is heavy enough, who still has the strength to carry the water! Besides, there has been a lack of water along the way! ”
……
Most of the rest of the refugee team who had been a little moved also dismissed the idea.
Only a handful of people were skeptical and stockpiled a little water.
And the clansmen who followed Luo Lingzhi basically obeyed Luo Lingzhi's words after the mudslide, and honestly did what Luo Lingzhi said.
For a time, there was the sound of cutting bamboo everywhere.
Bai Wulan saw the movement of Bai Lingqing and the others cutting bamboo to hold water, and immediately reacted, further north, the clean stream and stream were indeed rare. During this time, I was so busy that I almost forgot about this, and I quickly asked the guards to chop bamboo together to prepare water.
Luo Lingzhi carved a place in the space and piled up the bamboo tubes filled with water.
Finally felt a little more steady, her spiritual spring water was limited, and she was reluctant to take it out and share it with everyone to drink.
The team slowly climbed over the mountains and was confronted by a rushing river.
Unable to cross the river, everyone had to walk north along the riverbank.
The vegetation around it has gradually become scarce from its original lush greenery, and the rough sand has cut people's feet straight to the ground.
The river is rushing and covered with a lot of sediment, and it looks very muddy.
Some of the displaced people began to regret not listening to Luo Lingzhi's words and preparing water in advance.
But most people still don't care, and it may rain in two days.
Besides, even if it doesn't rain, there is still river water, anyway, there is water, and it doesn't matter if it's clean or not.
After another two days, not a drop of rain fell, and the refugees had to drink the murky water.
The Bai family was very glad to listen to Luo Lingzhi's words, and opened the bamboo tube to drink the water prepared before, but Luo Lingzhi stopped everyone.
