Leng Yuan immediately came to find Mu Ling.

"You ask the villagers to dig deep into dry wells, dig to a certain depth, and maybe you can really see water. But now that you have set the day when the water will come out of the well, it will be best if you can see the water at that time. What if I never see water? ”

"Master Leng, just put a hundred hearts!" In the early stage, there was an old god who paved the way with a dream, and Mu Ling, who had Ai Ci in his hand, had no fear, and said confidently: "The old god will not lie to me." ”

Leng Yuan: "......"

Mu Ling told him in detail about the old immortal's dream.

The old fairy said when he would wake up, and he really woke up at that time.

The old fairy said that there were eleven night pearls in the wall cracks of Mu Ling's cellar, and Mu Ling really dug out eleven night pearls in the wall cracks of her cellar. One of them was very large.

The old fairy said that digging deep into the dry well in the southeast corner of the courtyard can dig a spring. So, Mu Ling gathered a large number of villagers and worked hard to dig the dry well, and now he has dug dozens of zhang deep, but there is still no spring.

But the old fairy suddenly dreamed to Mu Ling and said: On July 27, you will see water.

Leng Yuan felt that the matter of the old immortal's dream was quite mysterious, but he couldn't believe it because of the several things that had been fulfilled before, especially one of which was closely related to him.

Plus now throughout Zhangzhou, the drought has been going on.

The wells in many villages around Jinhua Village have been completely depleted in recent days!

Countless villagers can only climb over mountains and mountains every day, brave the scorching sun, face the dust, and go to the stone crevices under the steep cliffs dozens of miles away to find water and fetch water.

If the spring can really be dug on time, and as Mu Ling said, the amount of water produced is very huge, and it will soon be able to flow down the one-zhang high and one-zhang wide canal over the pond, over the terraced fields, across the ravine, and along the original winding mountain stream, bubbling out of the village, it will be a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people.

When the time came, he took Mu Ling as a benchmark and called on other villagers to dig a dry well in the village.

The disaster of drought can be broken.

Thinking of this, Leng Yuan nodded: "That's okay, I'll go and arrange for hundreds of strong soldiers to come over and help dig the well." Strive to dig the spring on July 27. ”

"Hmm!"

Mu Ling had just asked Ai Ci to carefully survey it, and it was still 34.32 meters away from the spring.

Dig 29.87 meters deeper, and it's all hard rock.

The strong laborers in the village have been digging wells for many days, and they are already exhausted, if it were not for the fact that they can receive a few catties of rice every day, it is estimated that they would have all been picked up long ago.

Now, Leng Yuan offered to send hundreds of strong soldiers to help dig the well, and Mu Ling readily agreed.

However, no matter how many strong soldiers Leng Yuan sent to help, in order to confirm the words of "Old Immortal Dream", Mu Ling would accurately card the time when the eye spring was dug up.

……

The combat strength of the elite soldiers is much stronger than that of the average strong laborer.

In the evening, 29.78 meters of thick earth was dug up and the rock was extremely hard.

A soldier ran out of the pit and gathered his disappointment, and then reported respectfully to Leng Yuan: "Master Qiqi, we have dug up an extremely hard stone. ”

The next words were not spoken: the bottom was full of hard stones, and there was no spring at all.

Leng Yuan listened to the soldier's report, and was also secretly surprised!

He immediately went to the bottom of the well himself, held an iron hammer, and knocked the bottom of the whole well, which was about seven feet in diameter and wide, and found that it was really as the soldier said: the bottom of the well was full of extremely hard stones.

There is no spring at all.

The old fairy dreamed, it seems that it doesn't work.

Leng Yuan immediately walked out of the well pit with a heavy heart, walked to the well in the west of the village, found Mu Ling, and said truthfully: "Now, the entire bottom of that well is full of extremely hard stones. "There is no spring at all.

After listening to Leng Yuan's words, the villagers couldn't help but think: After digging deep for so many days and digging dozens of zhang deep into the well, there are only extremely hard stones at the bottom of the well?

Isn't the wish to dig the spring on the 27th come to naught?

The big stone at the bottom of the well seemed to press on the hearts of every villager in an instant.

The hopeful smiles on the faces of the villagers faded away.

The "quasi-Jinhua villagers" even whined and suppressed their weepings - they were the first batch of Xiangma who were promoted to Jinhua Village by Mu Ling and Leng Yuan, and they were homeless poor villagers from Yinkeng Village, Pingkou Village, and Baoji Village.

Xie Lizheng made it clear on the day they entered the village: on the day they dug the spring, he would help them go through the procedures for settling in Jinhua Village.

Today, at the bottom of the well, which has been dug dozens of feet deep, there are only extremely hard stones, and there is no spring at all... Jinhua Village, the only well in the village, is not enough, so it is impossible for them to settle in Jinhua Village.

If there is no hope of settling in Jinhua Village, where should they go?

Not to mention the loss of their loved ones and the destruction of their homes, even if their parents are still alive and eagerly awaiting the return of their children in an intact house, they dare not return home.

Chen Qingliang's routine The huge IOUs they signed are all still tightly held in Yun County's hands.

Thinking of the sadness, many people couldn't help but cry bitterly.

For a while, the atmosphere seemed very depressing.

It's so depressing that people can barely breathe.

"It's okay, keep digging." Mu Ling's words were said to Leng Yuan, and also to someone in the place, "When the gods gave me a dream, they made it clear that they would see water on the 27th!" It's only the twenty-third day, and there are still four days and four nights! ”

"Anzhi Spring, isn't it hidden under a boulder?"

Looking around at the depressed villagers for a week, Mu Ling continued: "Last year, when I was hunting in the mountains, I was lucky enough to pick up a few boxes of rare treasures. More than a dozen of them were specially used to cut stones. ”
