Chapter 19: Miracles?
Since the peasant family retreated, Haizhou was calm for a while. Perhaps, everybody felt that Haizhou had no way to solve the immediate difficulty -- drought! To dig ditches within a month and divert water for irrigation would be a dead end for Haizhou without borrowing the strength of the peasants!
However, the Xiao family and the Li family, especially the engineering team led by the Xiao family, were busy regardless of it. When a large number of agricultural tools made of ordinary steel were taken down, when a large amount of food was taken down, the local civilians exploded with unprecedented power - because they wanted to save their future.
But every outsider laughed when they saw the ditch dug by the Xiao family! Because there were solid rocks in some places, and the Xiao family just let it go!
Well, some people laughed: if you let these rocky fields go, you could dig enough ditches in a month...... Oh oh, you're still looking for crevices in the rocks to punch holes? Okay, you're creative......
However, one night everyone heard a continuous roar, and the next day it appeared, and all the rocks and other places were shattered. The scene is simply a mess! The river and ditch are through!
In less than 2o days, all but the last embankment of the Youlong River have been penetrated. The whole project borrowed the natural ravine river as much as possible, so the project was not as huge as imagined.
How did the Xiao family and the Li family do it? For a while, everyone was talking about it.
But everyone decided to go to the last embankment, because this is also the most difficult place for the project! Here, the surface of the earth has been emptied, and the stone crevices have been cleared, and some of the stone crevices have even been washed deep by the river. In order to see how the Xiao family is doing, there are already very people hidden here, either openly or secretly, ready to check it out and see how you are going to do it.
However, a day, two days...... Seeing that the last obstacle was left, the civilians in all parts of Haizhou were also anxious -- it had been more than 20 days, and the soil on the surface of the fields had begun to dry white.
But what is Xiao Hao doing at this moment? Xiao Hao is ready to climb high and look!
The process of digging the embankment at the end will be a crucial point, although the valley has been selected and Xiao Hao has also investigated, this is the place where the embankment is most likely to be destroyed. But it's not without hidden dangers, so Xiao Hao needs to climb high and look at it with his own eyes!
..................
"Hmm......" Xiang'er snorted, several days of hiking in a row had made Xiang'er very tired.
In Haizhou, the highest mountain is undoubtedly the Goddess Peak, and on the Goddess Peak, it is enough to see the situation in the entire eastern part of Haizhou. Therefore, now Xiao Hao and his party are climbing the mountain, and it has been three days.
Xiao Hao took the lead, the weather at this time had reached late autumn, and the weather began to kill, and therefore, snakes and other animals in the mountains had begun to reduce their activities. However, there are also some beasts that are starting to frantically prepare for the winter, such as bears!
In the evening, the fire was lit and the group prepared to camp.
"Sister Xiang'er, why don't you go back. Xiao Hao also felt a little distressed when he looked at it, a delicate little maid walked the mountain road for three days in a row, and it was really to the limit.
"No! Without Xiang'er, who will fetch water for the young master to wash his face. Xiang'er smiled a little coquettishly.
In fact, Xiang'er is not without martial arts at all, after all, what kind of place is Haizhou. But a little girl is just to strengthen her body. At this moment, Xiang'er was carrying a big backpack - well, this is Xiao Hao's dedication - there were a lot of things in it, and he followed the team to the back, and he didn't let others interfere;
"Here, young master, this is a peach cake made by Xiang'er, which is much better than those game. Xiang'er took out a food wrapped in oiled paper from her backpack, and inside was three peach cakes.
"Then let's eat together. Xiao Hao gently broke a peach cake in half. When I came here, I realized that without those condiments, the food was not very tasty. And the peach crisp is already a rare delicacy. Especially when camping, the food is often grilled, and no one really grills it slowly.
"No, Xiang'er has already eaten it. Xiang'er said, patting her little belly.
It's just that the stomach started to scream very unhappily, and he suddenly made a big red face.
"We both ate together. β
"Well......" Xiang'er took half of the peach cake, turned her back very embarrassedly, and nibbled on it in small bites.
However, Xiao Hao broke the remaining peach cake into more than 20 pieces and gave them to the people who followed. Although there was only one bite per person, everyone smiled with satisfaction.
Xiao Hao smiled knowingly. It's not a small favor, it's just a gesture -- sharing weal and woe.
The guards here all grew up at the same time as Xiao Hao and were then selected, which is Xiao Hao's team in the future. For these people, Xiao Hao cherishes them very much.
The main meal for dinner was hunting. In the middle of this dense forest, hunting is still very easy - because few people come here, and wild animals are not afraid of people, and sometimes they will come to the door on their own initiative.
Blowing the mountain wind and listening to the whistling sound in the mountains and forests, Xiao Hao looked into the distance. This is already halfway up the Goddess Peak, and the situation in the entire Haizhou can almost be seen, and there is basically nothing to cover. However, because of the night, there is only an unfamiliar starry sky in the sky, which makes people feel extremely lonely.
But looking at the few fires in the mountain town in the distance, it makes people feel inexplicably warm.
Looking back, the mountain is still very high, and the snow has begun to cover it, so you can see it clearly even at night.
Unfortunately, due to the obstruction of the mountains and mountains, it is not possible to see the place where the embankment is going to be dug here.
Tomorrow another day of climbing, it should be about the same.
All around, the guards were divided into four groups and guarded separately, and the rest of the men set up low tents and began to rest.
Xiang'er lay beside Xiao Hao and soon fell asleep with a smile. Don't think about it, everyone is crammed into one tent.
After a night of silence, Xiao Hao was woken up by Xiang'er as usual the next day, and then took the warm wet towel baked in Xiang'er's hand and wiped his face, and everyone continued to move forward.
"Woo woo ......" a mournful cry caught everyone's attention.
Turning his head, he saw a white fox lying alone on the side of the road, with messy fur on his body, and he looked like a tiger escaping. It seemed that he couldn't move, and he was injured, and when he saw everyone at this moment, he trembled with fear.
"It's pathetic. Xiang'er looked at the poor fox, who didn't seem to be an adult yet, only a foot long. "Young Master, save it. Its hind legs were broken. β
Well, it is estimated that the little white fluffy animal is easy to attract the attention of the little girl wherever it is.
"Give. Xiao Hao didn't think much about this pure little girl, and took out a piece of hard yellow paper directly from his arms. During this period of time, many bastards and spies in Xiaojiazhen and Lijiazhen who were traitors disappeared inexplicably, and then made a "life" dedication to these hard yellow papers.
"Thank you, young master. Xiang'er grinned, then turned to face the fox, "Little guy, you are so lucky to meet a kind-hearted person like my young master."
Well, I give you health. β
Brush...... Now Xiao Hao has also found a lot of skills in using it, after this kind of thing is "manufactured", others can also use it.
Hmm? A fox has not been cured? You must know that now Xiao Hao uses the seal engraved by the seal, and the effect is increased by at least 30%!
Yoyo ...... The little fox turned to Xiao Hao's pitiful call, his dark eyes full of pity and pleading.
"I'll see how many you can use!" Xiao Hao was also curious.
I opened the hard yellow paper in the sandalwood box, and used it one after another, and I used 15 sheets all the time. Placed in a sandalwood box, these hard yellow papers are as weightless as real paper.
Suddenly, the little fox in front of him flashed, and there seemed to be two tails behind him, and then the little fox jumped up and down, and then disappeared in a flash.
"Ah, little conscienceless!" Xiang'er screamed, her little mouth pouting high.
"The two-tailed fox?" Zhang Yun next to him said suspiciously, "According to the ancient legend, in the Goddess Peak, there were three-tailed foxes who could attract the wind.
It seems that this legend is not groundless!"
"Forget it, let's go up the mountain and have a look!" Xiao Hao walked in front, and sure enough, in the evening, he saw most of the state with the help of the sunset. Xiao Hao knew it in his heart, and immediately decided to return.
There is a way that it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down, and the road down the mountain is also not easy to walk.
The next morning, when Xiao Hao woke up, there was a fox beside Xiang'er, whose fur was crystal clear, like a work of art. As soon as he saw Xiao Hao, the little fox jumped directly to Xiao Hao's feet and screamed.
"Young master, the little guy likes peach crisp very much. Also, it seems to ask for your hard yellow paper. "Although Xiang'er is naΓ―ve, she is very clever and intelligent.
Xiao Hao looked at it and ignored it. After everyone cleaned up, continue to descend the mountain.
Yoyo ...... The little fox turned his head to look at everyone and walked in the other direction, looking at everyone as he went.
"Let's go, follow up and have a look!" Xiao Hao can be said to be a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he doesn't think that the little fox can do anything.
But as we walked, it was a shortcut up and down the mountain! Although there were twists and turns, there were no trees and hard rocks underfoot.
In the evening, everyone arrived at the foot ......of the mountain. However, the little fox was biting Xiao Hao's trouser leg at the moment, and he didn't let go.
"Haha......" Everyone laughed at this cute move.
Yoyo ...... But the little fox didn't.
Xiao Hao smiled helplessly, this fox is really a sperm!
Crash...... Took two ordinary health charms.
But the little fox had not yet let go, and his tail was wagging wildly.
"Be content, little one. Two are already very expensive, they can save lives twice!" Xiang'er squatted down and stroked the little fox's head.
Suddenly, the little fox opened his mouth and rubbed Xiang'er's palm, and then a few flickers disappeared.
Xiao Hao looked magical, "Hey, these days, animals are smarter than people!"
The next night, a large number of people from the Xiao family and the Li family suddenly went out to drive away all the surrounding areas of the embankment, and then there was a roar, and the ground shook the mountains. Suddenly, the flood broke through the obstacles and rushed all the way, moistening the arid fields!
But when the Youlongjiang River broke, Xiao Hao seemed to hear a grief, low, long, and vast roar in his heart, which appeared from the bottom of his heart!
But others didn't know that this night, the whole of Haizhou had no sleep! Some civilians from afar waited in the field until dawn, and were excited like children when they saw the muddy river with mud and sand irrigating their farmland!
"They succeeded? It took 26 days to do it?" Xu Kaiming was shocked after receiving the information!
