After listening to everyone's reports in turn, solving the drought has obviously become an urgent problem that has to be solved. ~,

But... Xiao Ling couldn't help but wonder: "Since it's already so drought, why... there is no feeling of too drought in Tianjing?"

It was midsummer at this moment. At first glance, there was water in the river in Tianjing City and green trees, so I really couldn't tell that I had suffered a drought.

The cultivators naturally investigated this and quickly put the situation in front of Xiao Ling.

Why?

The first reason is... This country has three long rivers, which flow down the mountains in the west, and cross the earth in a winding way. One winds towards the northeast, called Fenghe; one tributary is like a tree converging to the east, called Zuhe; and another nine-curve and eighteen-turn water system is complex in the south, called Luohe.

Three big rivers cover more than 50% of the country.

The main tributaries of these three rivers all pass through Tianjing City and form a huge lake area in the east of Tianjing, called Dichi. Legend has it that there are even dragon tribes in the Dichig. It is said that the three rivers surround Tianjing.

When it comes to the surplus of water, there is nothing worse than that in Tianjing. If Tianjing lacks water, it will definitely be drought elsewhere.

The second reason is... the emperor is luxurious enough.

Although Tianjing has abundant water resources, due to the severe drought, the water levels of various rivers have dropped severely, and have dropped to the point where there is no other way to divert water except for artificial water loading.

Except for a few farmlands located by the river that can be irrigated by manpower, other farmlands can only be eaten by the weather.

But the emperor was not an ordinary person. Qin ordered to supervise the construction of one level of reservoir on the riverside, and then build one level of water trucks in the reservoir. He drove up the water trucks in the river whose water level had been lowered by dozens of meters, and then... and then poured into the Taiyi Pond of the Palace through the ditches to ensure that the water vapor in the harem is abundant, refreshing and pleasant.

Also, because Taiye Pond and the moat are connected by crypts. If there is water in the Taiye Pond, there will naturally be water in the moat, so the amount of water on the surface of Tianjing is maintained sufficient.

But everyone can also imagine how low the efficiency of the water trucks that can only rely on rickshaws will be...

For this reason, the Ministry of Works had to supervise the construction of large and strong water trucks, and then carefully select some elites who were proficient in martial arts and were more powerful than ordinary people from the Imperial Guards. They were asked to guard this side, just for the traffic every day.

But this is obviously not enough. Taiye pool, moat, open channel and crypt are such a large area and a large area. The living water from the car walked along this range, and the evaporation of the water volume would almost consume the water volume from the car.

For this reason, the emperor issued a special order: the moat and related ditches are for the royal family. All people and officials are not allowed to divert water from the canal, whether it is intended to be used to water the merchants, vegetable gardens, or drinking... unless it is discharged from the imperial city river to the earth pool.

That section is already at the end of the entire water circulation system, and it can even be said to be a sewer. All the shit, urine and dirt are inside and they cannot be drunk at all.

And... it was the case that it was impossible to drink. With the continuous drought, the soil penetration capacity by the moat continued to increase, and the water level of the moat gradually decreased. The section from the moat to the ground pool was silted and blocked. Even if you want to lift water from it, you have no need to raise it.

This is another ridiculous thing the emperor did to please Concubine Li.

It was Xiao Ling and his friends who had no time to correct it.

However... Xiao Ling did not intend to correct it, because compared with Taili Pool, the water volume of the moat and the efficiency of the water trucks and water trucks, if residents were allowed to fetch water, it would not take long for the moat Taili Pool to dry out.

If even the Taiye Pond of the moat is dry and the entire imperial city shows no water source, people may be even more panicked. Oh, there is a way to solve the temporary urgent problem...

The population of Tianjing is nearly one million. If they can solve their problem of drinking water, eating and even gushing the land, they can also gain a lot of reputation.

Xiao Ling thought in his mind and asked everyone: What are their solutions to solve the drought?

The people from Kongshan Gate immediately raised their hands. The method is very simple, forming a large array of clouds and rain, interfering with the vitality of heaven and earth, and implementing artificial rainfall.

Based on their experience in the Qinghuang world, this is not difficult. It may be difficult to solve the drought in the country, but there is still no big problem in solving the land of a state.

It took two or three months to sweep away from high terrain and severe drought, and to sweep away from one state to another. But there is one problem...

To carry out the formation of clouds and rain, at least twenty-four Han-level monks and at least one level of monks are needed to correspond to the thunder god and twenty-four thunder gods who are responsible for moving clouds and rain.

Oh, by the way, in the Romance of the Gods, the main god of the Lei tribe is Wen Zhongwen Grand Master, who is Xiao Ling's position at this moment.

What is a Han-level monk? What is a level monk?

This is the method of Qinghuang Realm to divide the levels of cultivators. It is not as simple and crude as the first night of the first day of the lunar month and the second night of the lunar month. Their name is the human immortal Mingxiao Hanlao and the height of the sky...

People are the first night of the first lunar month, immortals are the second night of the second lunar month, and so on.

In other words, to set up the cloud-dressing formation, at least twenty-four monks on the fifth night and one super monk on the seventh night.

It's almost the same to think about it. Hong Tianjun's strength is almost the seventh night of the lunar month. It is impossible to achieve it with his strength alone.

With the formation and the assistance of low-level monks, it is already very awesome that the monks of Chu Qiye can travel through clouds and rain. But... it is useless. God knows when the monks of Chu Qiye will come in.

And if even the monks on the Qiye of the Day came in, Xiao Ling and his friends would have a place to gain a foothold?

Even if there are queens and grand masters among them, most high-level cultivators can replace them, right? They are just better than creativity, but unfortunately in this world, creativity is not worth anything at all.

Without hesitation, this trick pass.

Of course, Xiao Ling did not directly talk about his own interests, but told Kongshanmen that time, the most important thing now is time. If the clouds and rain immediately solve this problem, the autumn harvest crop may be saved.

If monks at the same level enter, they may all be in winter and will resist drought.

The people in Kongshan Gate have nothing to say, this is the truth...

Xiao Ling had no choice but to ask again: "Is there any better way?"

This time Lin Qiuran raised his hand.

What he was looking for was not the summoning Yunyu that was commonly used in the fairy world outside, but the method found in the historical records of the imperial court in this world to communicate with the Dragon God.

It is said that the Sheji Altar, south of the Imperial City, has such a function, which can communicate with the Dragon God in all major water systems in the world. Whenever this world has been drought and rain for a long time, the court receives the news, and the national teacher in charge of this matter will fast and bathe, and will take the stage at the Sheji Altar to communicate with the Dragon God, and discuss the sacrifice of incense.

After that, the court mobilized all over the court to meet the conditions of the Dragon God. The Dragon God would stir up winds and waves at the designated location, traveling clouds and raining to get in touch with drought.

It's a bit like the Dragon King in Journey to the West. He received an order from the Heavenly Court that at a certain moment and at some point, how much rain should be dropped in a certain place. If it does not drop, the heavenly rules will punish it.

However, here, rainfall is a condition for the court and the Dragon King to negotiate. It is like a big country doing business. You sell me some daily necessities, I sell you some scarce energy... and so on.

But why didn’t the Khan court use this trick this time?

That's because... there was a family in the court with a surname, Yu, who was responsible for this matter for generations and was known as the national teacher. However, this national teacher should never have been, and he had a wife who was as beautiful as a flower.

A few years ago, she and many other ladies with titles went to the palace to celebrate, but were caught by the emperor. The emperor was fascinated for a moment and wanted to do such a miserable thing.

However, Master Yu's wife was born into a family and was very respectful to Yu's reputation. She was unwilling to be humiliated and killed on the pillar of the palace...

The emperor at that time was not completely foolish, so he had to be more contempt. When this happened, he did not take his anger on the National Master's Mansion. He just returned Mrs. Yu's body to the National Master's Mansion. He only said that the wife was careless in watching the lamp and accidentally fell down the steps and fell to death.

It is said that afterwards, the entire palace pillars were covered with spice cork...

However, although the royal family concealed this matter, how could such a thing be hidden?

Not long after, the city was full of storms. Master Yu understood the truth. On the one hand, he felt sorry for his wife's death, and on the other hand, he also hated the emperor's absurdity. He led the master's mansion to disappear overnight in Tianjing.

Since then, there has been no national magistrate in the court.

Even if there are some people who can understand ghosts and gods who are interested in the position of the national master, they will be discouraged when they find out about the national master. This can be regarded as... a silent resistance from the emperor's willful acts by the world's cultivation world.

That’s right, there is a world of cultivation in this world. The military in the court will have some methods of gain joint development, so how can there be no full-time cultivator?

However, the Yu family has served as national teachers throughout the years and has a profound influence in the world of cultivation. When they were angry, the other cultivators were afraid of the emperor's willful acts and offend the Yu family, and there was no one willing to take over the position.

This is also the biggest reason why Xiao Ling and his friends were able to take office directly because they "had been in vain for a long time."

In theory, he took office as the national teacher. From then on, he communicated with the Dragon God and said that the task of deciding to move clouds and rain was the duty of Xiao Ling and his friends. However... I guess there were no such powerful master as them in all dynasties. He was extremely noble because he had a relationship with the queen...
