After Xiao Yue returned to Luzhou, it was already a day later.

Stepping into the mansion, Xiao Yue didn't see Xiao Feng, and after asking Xiao Xing, who was processing iron tools, she learned that her master was in the Zhanghe River, taking those civilians to dredge the river and restore the previous irrigation canal.

Since decades of conquest, the river irrigation canals built in Luzhou have long been blocked by silt, and it is no longer possible to play the function of irrigating farmland in the past. So after occupying the entire Luzhou, Xiao Feng began to mobilize the people, and began to lead them to dredge the entire river and reclaim farmland to grow food.

In ancient times, there were no chemical fertilizers that could increase crop yields, and there were no high-yielding potatoes, corn and the like.

The only thing that can be relied on is the wheat and rice that the farmers here have relied on for thousands of years. In order to increase the yield of these farmlands, it is necessary to build water conservancy projects to expand the scope of farmland. If they don't even have the ability to feed the people, then isn't the Red Phoenix Army's so-called "purifying the fire and burning the world and expelling the Tatars" just an empty word?

Hearing the news, Xiao Feng immediately rushed towards the Zhanghe River.

The Zhanghe River is one of the most important water systems in North China, and its upstream is composed of two rivers, one is the Qingzhang River and the other is the Turbidity Zhanghe River, and its source is in the territory under the jurisdiction of the Chifeng Army.

Because this place is the junction of mountains and plains, the entire basin has a huge drop, and the downstream cannot completely discharge the floods, so the Zhanghe River has suffered frequent disasters in the past, and the people along the river have suffered greatly. It is precisely for this reason that in order to control the flood disaster here, as early as the Warring States Period, Ximen Leopard built 12 canals here to divert water to irrigate farmland, which laid the foundation for the prosperity of this place.

It's just that since the collapse of the Jin Dynasty, there has been no government here for a long time to organize the people to clean up the river, so that the entire canal is filled with sediment, and the water flow has dropped significantly. If it is during the heavy rains in June and July, the water in the canals here will overflow, and the surrounding area will turn into a vast ocean, and I don't know how many people and livestock will be submerged, and I don't know how many crops will be affected by drought and floods!

If this problem is not solved, I am afraid that a rainstorm will completely destroy the ten years of efforts of the Red Phoenix Army.

What is the threat of the Tartars in comparison?

It is precisely because of this that Xiao Feng did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and personally went into battle to gather the people and come to govern the water conservancy here.

At this moment, she is in Fajiu Mountain in Changzi County, renovating the southern source of the turbid Zhanghe River that has not been governed for a long time, so as to dredge the river to prevent disasters. When Xiao Yue came here, she saw a boulder with a radius of ten zhang and about 1,000 tons across the river, on one side the river had already overflowed to form a small lake, and on the other side the river had dried up to expose the dry riverbed.

And next to the boulder, dozens of people are gathering.

Although they were holding hammers, chisels and chains in their hands, and there were many bamboo baskets and other tools used to carry stones and dredge the river, they were helpless in the face of this huge rock. At this moment, a voice came from a distance: "Zhenfeng Niangniang, this stone is so big, we really can't move it!"

"Isn't it okay to blow it up?" asked Xiao Feng.

The man shook his head helplessly and replied. "To blow this boulder apart, I estimate that it will take at least thousands of pounds of gunpowder. That's more gunpowder than we can carry. ”

Xiao Yue heard this and walked over, and when she saw Xiao Feng pondering next to her, she opened her mouth and asked, "Sister, are you going to take this stone away?"

"That's right. If you don't get rid of this thing, otherwise the water source here will be completely cut off. If there is no water source for irrigation in the lower farmland, how will those people live?" An old farmer next to him also said helplessly: "That's right, I don't know what evil we have done, but since this year, we have found that the entire downstream has been completely cut off." Later, when we went up the mountain to investigate, we found that there was a stone blocking the river. It's a pity that we can't move such a boulder with our people!"

"In ancient times, there was a foolish man who moved mountains, but today there is only a big rock, how can it stop us?" Xiao Feng shook his head, revealing determination.

If this stone is not removed, then thousands of families downstream will all suffer. In such a situation, how could she ignore it?

Xiao Yue was surprised, and couldn't help but hesitate a little: "But sister, you must know that this boulder weighs tens of thousands of tons. With the strength of you and me, we can't crush this thing. Although she was confident that she could chop up the hard granite, even if she tried her best, she was afraid that she would only be able to erase its skin, and it would take three to five months to completely shatter it.

After so much time, the best time for irrigation of farmland has long passed!

"I know!"

Full of helplessness, Xiao Feng immediately urged the power in his body and slapped it suddenly.

The skin of the boulder suddenly shattered, and pieces of stone fell one after another, each of which was as thick as a Xinhua dictionary, but the boulder did not move. Obviously, with Xiao Feng's strength, he couldn't shake this boulder at all. Seeing this, Xiao Yue did not flinch and raised her hand to wave it out, and immediately dug a cave on the boulder that was more than a few feet long, which could completely accommodate one person.

Of course, the boulder still didn't move!

"Huh?" Xiao Feng saw Xiao Yue's movements, and immediately had an idea in her heart, she immediately called Xiao Yue and said, "Xiao Yue, come here." Let's try to smash this boulder to pieces!"

"Smash this boulder?"

Xiao Yue was surprised for a while.

If it was a large rock that was more than a foot long, she could have smashed it, but it was impossible to plan such a huge mountain rock. There was no way, the rock was too big and heavy, far beyond the limit of what they could smash.

"That's right. ”

Xiao Feng nodded, took a deep breath and pressed her palm behind Xiao Yue, the pure glass flame surged out from her body, making it like a phoenix bathed in flames, and continued to spread Xiao Yue into it, and the endless flames were all incorporated into Xiao Yue's body along the pores and blood vessels, making her can't help but let out an extremely soft sound, and her entire skin was also dyed with a rose-like luster by this flame, and her eyes were also crystal luster.

Stimulated by this, Xiao Yue couldn't help but think of the ridiculous things of the day.

"Don't think too much, you should carefully sense the sword heart in the dantian. ”

At this moment, a soft drink sounded in Xiao Yue's ears, and she immediately abandoned the reverie in her mind and asked, "Sister, can I really smash this boulder?"

"Not at the moment, after all, your Dao body has not yet been completed, and it is difficult for the sword heart to turn into a supernatural power. Otherwise, if Kenshin is easily activated, it will inevitably damage the body and make it impossible to exert its maximum strength. When you fought in Luzhou before, didn't you lose because you forcibly urged the sword heart?" Xiao Feng explained, and then thinking about the future, she was a little worried: "In a situation like yours, I'm afraid that if you want to cross the three levels in the future, the danger of achieving the ground level is far better than mine." Do you know that?"

Everyone's three levels are different, as for Xiao Feng's time when she crossed the tribulation that day, if it weren't for the effect of healing the body with the Dan Jin she refined, it would be extremely helpful to cross the tribulation, but I am afraid that she might not be able to cross it at the beginning.

But a situation like Xiao Yue's undoubtedly means that if she wants to cross the tribulation in the future, it will be more than dozens of times more difficult than ordinary people, of course, if she can achieve the ground level, her strength will naturally be top-notch. Even though it can't be compared to the Pure Glass Flame in terms of healing the body, it naturally has its outstanding side when it comes to cutting matter, destroying things, and fighting alone.

"The apprentice naturally knows!"

Xiao Yue restrained her expression, lowered her eyes and secretly sensed the sword heart in her body, and thought to herself: "It's just that life is just a gap in the world, I just need to follow the master, even if I can't get through the three levels, so what's the matter?"

This time, under the support of Xiao Feng with a pure glass flame, she did not have the pain of tearing her body like before, and the sword was still running unscrupulously in the meridians, but at this moment she felt that her body was sore, and gradually a trace of longing was born in her body, longing to be warm, eager to be included, eager for everything, and gradually even her mind was eroded by this warm warmth, and suddenly forgot about the things in front of her, and indulged in the warm and fiery warmth.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but feel a little helpless, and shouted in a low voice: "Concentrate your eyes, don't be disturbed by your mind." ”

Xiao Yuexing turned around, she couldn't help but be a little surprised when she thought about her performance, and replied, "I know my sister." Then she pushed her whole body strength to the limit, and gradually began to have intentions around her.

The gravel on the ground seemed to have been pulled by something, and gradually levitated and stood high in the air, and then the gravel seemed to melt, and the whole and other gravel also merged together, forming a stone sword. Crystal like jade, the edge is sharp, and the top is extremely smooth, as if it has been polished by a famous artist, revealing a sense of sharpness. And the stone sword continued to absorb the surrounding rubble, and incorporated it into its body, so that it was still growing.

Eventually, the sick stone sword had grown to more than ten feet, the hilt was wide enough to hold a person, and the blade was incomparably large, comparable to the city gate.

This kind of stone sword is absolutely something that ordinary people can control, and perhaps only the heavenly gods can control it.

Seeing this appearance, Xiao Yue was extremely surprised, she knew that if it weren't for Xiao Feng's help, she would definitely not be able to do it to such an extent, so she took a deep breath and shouted, "Give me a crack!"

In response, the stone sword immediately swung in the air, and its target was the huge mountain rock. Although it was made of stone, this stone sword was quite sharp because of Xiao Yue's true element, just like cutting a cake, and it didn't take a few brushes to chop up the entire huge mountain rock, and the water of the river immediately surged down from the cut ditch, moistening the already dry river, and delivering the fresh water they urgently needed to the downstream farmland.

At the sight of the raging river, the peasants immediately cheered, and jumped into the river, ignoring the fact that the river had soaked their clothes, and began to celebrate with a loud voice.

"There's water!"

"Here comes the water!"

For them, this water is the source of life and the only thing that feeds them to survive.

Xiao Feng and Xiao Yue saw these simple villagers on the side, and they also showed a satisfied smile.

For them, with so much hard work, aren't they asking for these scenes? )
