Chapter 145: The drought is severe
Su Li got rid of Chi Lao, although he felt that he was missing an encyclopedia that was not working from time to time, he always felt much more relaxed.
Moreover, now with his in-depth study of "Mountains and Seas Returning to Tibet" and various Taoist books, his understanding of this world no longer needs Chi Lao to explain.
He returned to Ji Zheng's camp alone, but saw that he was looking over here with some anxiety.
"Mr. Su, you can be regarded as back, and the monk has not embarrassed you, right?" Ji Zheng asked worriedly.
Su Li was relieved: "It's okay, he also solved a big trouble for me, and he is a good person." ”
Seeing this, Ji Zheng let go of his worries, because Su Li's good mood was clear at a glance...... Maybe the monk was really a good man.
"Sir, let's introduce you to this Mr. Liaowei, this is for the soldiers!" Ji Zheng brought Su Li to the Liaowei and introduced.
When the Liao Wei saw Su Li, he actually showed a nervous look, and then bowed down and said, "Therefore, Liao Wei, a disciple of the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect, has seen the Immortal Master. ”
Ji Zheng was also surprised, he didn't expect that this great sage of the soldier family in his heart was actually related to the Sword Sect?
Of course, the Western Qin royal family knew that the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect was the outer sect of the Sword Sect!
When Su Li heard this, he nodded knowingly and said, "I see, no wonder there are traces of cultivation on your body...... Why didn't you stick to it?"
"Wei, I know that I am reckless and it is difficult to make progress on the way to cultivation. That's why I went down to the mountain to study ten years ago, but I didn't want to have a little experience in the military road......"
Liao Wei was still nervous, because he knew that Su Li was a disciple of the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect, and he had also longed for it.
"Don't be nervous, since you have already broken away from the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect and given up cultivation, then there is no difference between us and us. Su Li said in a gentle tone.
The guards seemed to be relaxed, but they looked a little lost...... In this Western Qin realm, there are people who have practiced martial arts and cultivators, who doesn't want to have a relationship with the Sword Sect.
"That's right, although Mr. Liao Wei gave up the path of martial arts, he unexpectedly showed his talent for martial arts...... Mr. Su, you don't know how talented this gentleman is!"
Ji Zheng's face was full of excitement, and he seemed to be imagining the future again.
Su Li will listen to it, just like what the Wusheng monk said at the beginning...... Liao Wei is a great talent, but for the time being, Ji Zheng has no chance to show his strengths here.
However, after Ji Zheng saw Su Li's smiling and silent expression, he also came to his senses all of a sudden, and then said to Liao Wei apologetically: "It's Ji Zheng who is incompetent, I'm afraid I'm going to wronged Mr. ”
"It's okay, being able to swim in shallow water with Gongzi is also a blessing for my guards. Liao Wei had already expected this scene and said:
"Wei is also a scholar, and the surgical method and literary style are also passable, if the son does not give up, it can be a document for the time being. ”
"That's fine. Ji Zheng still said with some regret...... The clerk is his secretary.
He knew that it was indeed condescending to do this kind of thing with the talents of Liao Wei.
...... So the group hit the road again.
The purpose of their trip was to Hexi County, west of Anyang, which was originally the west side of the riverbed to the north of a section of the Anyang River, and some tributaries of the Anyang River irrigated the fertile field.
It's just that I didn't expect that under the great drought, the tributaries of the Anyang River would all dry up, so that a large area of the Hexi Plain was dried up and sandy by the increasingly hot sun star.
"In fact, there were signs of drought in Hexi in previous years. In previous years, the water level of the tributaries of the Anyang River would drop seriously in June and July. But I didn't expect that the water level would start to drop in May this year, and it would dry up directly in June......"
Ji is explaining the situation in the carriage.
Originally, there were only two people in the carriage, which was quite spacious, but now that the guards were also invited, it was a little crowded.
But now it's talking about things, so Liao Wei is crouching next to Ji Zheng's bookcase and constantly recording something...... This clerk is a very quick entry character.
"The riverbed is dry...... Is it because there is less water in the Anyang River, or is it getting hotter at this time?" asked Su Li puzzled.
Theoretically, Hexi County is also the Anyang River Basin, how can there be a shortage of water next to the big river?
"It's because there is less rain than in previous years, there is no rain, and the sun and stars are shining all the time, which makes the drought more and more serious. It seems that Ji Zheng also understands this situation very well.
Su Li also listened to Ji Zheng's intelligence and analysis of the drought in Hexi, but he would not make any conclusions before he arrived at the place.
The convoy went all the way west, but stopped at the Anyang River.
It seems that not only its tributaries are broken, but even the entire Anyang River may be cut off if this drought continues.
At the ferry, they encountered a problem, that is, because the river has become shallow, there are no large ferries in this place, only some small and medium-sized ferries are ferrying.
And these ferries can't fit the frame left by the king of Ji Zhengna.
"Is the situation already so serious?" Ji Zheng was only worried about the survival of his people, and he said without hesitation: "Then put the frame here, let's cross the river by ferry." ”
If the frame is left in place, it basically means that it is discarded there.
"Hand over the carriage to me, and I'll take it across the river. Su Li took the errand.
The main thing is that he feels too comfortable to travel in a carriage, especially a 'maglev' carriage.
Ji Zheng immediately breathed a sigh of relief, this was the carriage left to him by his father, and he didn't want to throw it away if he could.
So everyone got on the ferry, and a total of three medium-sized ferries crossed the Anyang River to the west bank.
Su Li sat cross-legged on the driver's seat of the carriage, and his true qi gushed out into the heavy sword located at the bottom of the carriage......
The next moment, the frame shook slightly, and then flew off to the other side of the river...... And it was much faster than the people on the ferry, and it was almost a moment to the other side.
In this process, Su Li only felt very comfortable!
He originally thought that he might have to 'fly with a dog' in the future, so he had been waiting for the sausage to grow so that he could fly.
But now he has experienced the 'Royal Car Flight' and suddenly realized it...... It's not that he can't fly, but he has to fly with a sense of security!
It just so happened that the feeling of sitting on the frame made him feel very comfortable......
"Whew~" The sausage poked its head out of the pocket and called happily twice.
"You say why don't we build a flying car ourselves?" Su Li's eyes lit up, and he felt that the suggestion of the meat sausage was really excellent.
"Woo~Woo~"
"Huh, you want to try driving a flying car too?" Su Li was surprised, but thinking that he had originally planned to fly with a dog, it seemed that it was nothing to let the dog drive.
"Okay, we'll try it when we're free. Su Li nodded in agreement. He really agreed......
