Chapter 38 Survey of Water Conditions
Qi respectfully said his suggestion to Wen Ming, and after Wen Ming listened to it, he was silent for a long time before saying: "Brother Niu, your suggestion is very good, it is indeed more convenient to build a main road, let me see." ”
Wen Ming took Qi and the three of them to continue westward, and when they reached the west of Emperor Mountain, Wen Ming looked at the mountains here like iron buckets, and sighed: "My father just saw such a scene, and he just thought that it would be better to block it." It's a pity that this time is a great change in the world, even if it is such a majestic mountain, it may not be able to block the water of the West Sea. ”
Wen Ming took a fancy to a relatively low mountain, asked the surviving savages in the area, and learned that this place was called Longmen.
Wen Ming drew a circle on the silk book, wrote the word Longmen, and said to Qi: "This is a key point, if it is not handled well, all that is done in front is to draw cakes." ”
Wen Ming said, explaining his current idea, he is going to make a main road from Xintu Prefecture to Xintu Prefecture according to Kai's statement, and then divide into nine rivers and enter the East China Sea.
"Ah Niu, we will first control the flood in Baitu Prefecture, then control Xintu Prefecture and Yintu Prefecture, and finally open this dragon gate to drain out the western sea water of Taotu Prefecture."
Qi said very well, and sincerely hoped that Wenming could succeed in controlling the water.
He Wenming crossed the mountains and mountains to the Taotu Prefecture in the west, looking at the puddles everywhere, Wen Ming sighed and said: "Fortunately, the West Sea changes slowly, if it changes suddenly, the West Sea flows eastward, wouldn't this Taotu Prefecture become an ocean." After Wen Ming finished speaking, he continued to check the water potential with Qi, and when he walked to the center of Taotu Prefecture, Wen Ming shook his head and said to Qi: "Looking at the water potential, it seems that a river is difficult to dredge. ”
Qi has also discovered in the past few days that the low-lying places in Taotu Prefecture are full of water, and these waters are still growing, especially in some places that have become dammed lakes, Qi is shocked to see that if these lakes collapse, the residents living near here do not know how many people will be affected.
They continued westward and came to a village. I heard that they came to control the water, and the people in the village received them warmly. The oldest old man in the village said to them, "After so many years, the DPRK is finally willing to send someone." ”
"Uncle, didn't there be a Chongbo who also controlled water in the past? Hasn't he been here? ”
"No, the old man just heard that Chongbo established Jiuqian City at the junction of Taotu Prefecture and Baitu Prefecture, and Chongbo has never come here."
Wen Ming sighed again, did not continue the topic, and asked the old man how the disaster was, and the old man told them that since the flood, they had moved every year, and there was not a single day of peace.
Hearing this, Wen Ming told the old man that he asked them to be more patient on such days, and it would take more than 20 years for them to cure this flood.
"My lord, thank God for being cured, we people will not see that day, we only hope that our children and grandchildren will not suffer from this flood again."
Wen Ming said that he would continue to the west tomorrow, and the old man hurriedly shook his head and said: "My lord, you can't go to the west, that is the territory of Gonggong Kong Ren, and the Xiangliu under him is cruel and vicious, and many people have died in the hands of Xiangliu." ”
Qi also remembered that Xiangliu, as one of the ten gods of the Great Wilderness, was very vicious, and it was said that the exercises for cultivation were also cultivated with human life.
He also persuaded Wen Ming that the current plan is not to be too close to the west, now that the situation in Taotu Prefecture has been almost explored, it is better to go to the west and see the situation on the other side of the West Sea.
They also persuaded Wen Ming, but Wen Ming had to dispel this idea, and the next day they turned northwest and went to Feitu Prefecture.
The farther they went west, the stronger the water became, and when they were halfway there, they stopped, because there was no road ahead, just a vast ocean.
"Sure enough, the West Sea is eastbound, and it used to be a month's journey from here to the West Sea." After Wen Ming finished speaking, he drew on the silk book again.
They stayed here for three days, and Wen Ming asked Qi: "Brother Niu, how long has it taken us to get here from leaving the Great Fire Country. ”
Qi said that it has been more than three months, and it has been nearly four months. Wen Ming sighed and said, "It will take us so long just to walk, let alone build a river." It seems that twenty years, or I am undercounting. ”
"Gao Mi Gongzi is young, why worry about these things?" Qi comforted for a moment, and then continued: "In fact, the villain feels that it will not take ten years, if all of them are affected by floods today, and all the people cannot live on crops, when the time comes, as long as the prince of Gaomi goes to a country, let the lord of the country send the people to dispatch troops and dredge the waterways, these hundreds of millions of people work together, can move mountains, can reclaim the sea, and there may be more than twenty years." ”
Listening to Qi's words, Wen Ming said approvingly: "Brother Niu, your idea is good, it is true that if all the people from all over the world work together, it is not difficult to open up mountains and reclaim the sea, but it is just such a big use of people's power, I am afraid that the Holy Son of Heaven will not allow it." ”
"Now the people are not struggling to make a living, living in the tomb and eating fruits, panic all day long, they can only live in peace after curing the flood, this waterway is not for one person and one surname, but for the sake of hundreds of millions of people, I think the Son of Heaven will also agree."
Wen Ming nodded, looked in the direction of the emperor mountain and said, "I don't know if Marquis Yu has ascended to the throne and built the emperor." ”
On the way back, because there was no need to check the water situation, Zhuhai and Dazhang carried one on their backs, and it only took half a month for the four of them to return to the country of fire.
When he arrived at the post house, Wen Ming said to Qi: "Brother Niu, now I can only trouble you to inquire whether Fairy Su'e intends to introduce me, the son of a sinner, to control the water." ”
"Don't dare to live up to the trust of the Gaomi prince, even if His Royal Highness is unwilling, the small one will desperately admonish, if the world is not governed by the Gaomi prince, then when will this flood subside."
Qi left the post house and returned to the palace, and when he arrived at the door of Fairy Su'e, Qi knelt on the ground and said, "Your Highness Qiqi, the little one has returned." ”
"Do you think the man of the civil can be trusted?"
"The little ones don't dare to talk nonsense, and the little ones can only tell His Highness what they have seen and heard."
Qi told what he had seen and heard in the past three months, and many of his own ideas were also said to be Wenming's plan, and when he finished speaking, he knelt there quietly again and waited for Fairy Su'e to speak.
I don't know how long it took before Fairy Su'e spoke: "According to what you said, it is true that Wenfeng has the ability to control water, and he can take on the responsibility of co-working, but unfortunately Yu Hou has not found it yet, even if he wants to recommend it, it is a difficult thing." ”
"Little one understands." Hearing that Yu Hou has not been found, Qi still has some disappointment in his heart, there has been no owner in this world for a year, if it goes on like this, it will be bad.
When Fairy Su'e heard this, she said to him, "You go to Miao Mountain." ”
Listening to this headless and unfinished words, Qi was stunned for a moment, and then said respectfully.
Miao Shan was just a few miles outside the city, and when he arrived at Miao Mountain, he found that there was nothing wrong here.
After walking around Miao Mountain, Qi didn't expect that he would meet that Ah Xia again.
Ah Xia said to Qi, "Ah Niu, I didn't expect us to meet again. ”
"Yes, I didn't expect the girl to come back here from Mount Taimur."
"You don't seem surprised at all." Ah Xia smiled shallowly, and two dimples appeared at the corners of his mouth.
"Because this person always meets and separates under the guidance of destiny, whether it is surprise or surprise, it cannot be changed." Kai said calmly.
Ah Xia smiled and said to Qi: "What you say is really mysterious, by the way, you came here to find that person, I'll take you there." ”
When Qi heard this, his heart moved, and he saluted Ah Xia and said, "Thank you Ah Xia so much." ”
Ah Xia led him to a thatched hut and said to him, "The person you want to pick up is here, you just go in." ”
Qi nodded, respectfully tidied up his clothes, and then knelt outside the door step by step, and said respectfully to the inside: "Little Ah Niu, I have seen Yu Hou." ”
"No need to be polite, you can find the widow, it is also a kind of providence, you come in."
After Keisan kowtowed, he pushed the door and entered, and saw an old man sitting there writing something.
This man was no different from an ordinary peasant, and his dress and demeanor were not outstanding.
When Qi was puzzled, Yu Hou raised his head, and Qi saw the pair of eyes with two eyes, and felt a kind of warmth and wisdom.
Qi Ju has to be under these eyes, nothing can be hidden, and he seems to have been seen through by Yu Hou.
"She asked you to come here."
"Yes, Your Highness would like to recommend someone to you, Marquis Yu."
"Really? I don't know who it is? ”
"It's Chongbo's son."
Yu Hou smiled and said, "It turned out to be the son of Gaomi, he wants to control the water, right?" The widow had known about this matter for a long time, and the widow originally wanted to recommend him to Di Yao, but he didn't expect that Di Yao would collapse. Yu Hou said to the end, with sentimentality in his eyes.
"Now all the people in the world are looking forward to Marquis Yu being able to ascend to the throne and hold the artifact, why do you want Marquis Yu to live in seclusion in Miao Mountain?" Qi asked the question in his heart, and after he finished speaking, he felt regretful, and hurriedly said: "The little one is too talkative for a while, and I ask Yu Hou to punish him." ”
"It doesn't matter, the widow is unwilling to practice the throne, but he doesn't know how to govern the world, Di Yao rules the world with benevolence, and now the widow still doesn't know how to govern the world, I don't know how to govern, how to control the world lightly, so as to harm the world." After Yu Hou finished speaking, he read the silk book on the desk, sighed again and said: "Of course, the flood must be cured, but how can this person's heart not be?" ”
"From Emperor Xuanyuan, to Emperor Gaoyang, Emperor Gaoxin, and Emperor Yao, all of them have been restructured in life, Emperor Xuanyuan Shiyun, Liyun Guan, and Jianyun Division. Emperor Gaoyang is a bird, and he is a bird official. Emperor Gaoxin insisted on the ghosts and gods in the world and turned the world. Emperor Yao set up four mountains, to Ming Nong. "Marquis Yu talked about Emperor Yao from the ancient Emperor Xuanyuan, talking about how they governed the world, what were their drawbacks, and how their successors remedied.
After listening to Yu Hou's remarks, Qi believed that if Yu Hou was not the lord of the world, then there would be no one in the world who was worthy.
