A few days later, the Xinqiao Brigade's dam was completed. It was increased by more than two feet in height. It was built with large bluestone and Sanhe mud, and the inner layer was coated with a layer of cement. I don't know where the Xinqiao Brigade got the cement from.
.A new gate was built next to the old gate, and it happened to have solidified.
Yang Fu'an, secretary of the Xinqiao Brigade, held a small red flag in his hand and raised it high. He waved the red flag in his hand and shouted: "Lost the gate!"
As several strong men worked together to turn the threads on the gate, the huge gate slowly fell. It didn't take long for the gate to fall to the bottom. The water flow hit the gate and immediately bounced back. The gate was made to fit perfectly, almost
The water flow was completely blocked. The river flow was completely cut off.
A group of people standing far away on the hillside of Xianji Bridge had sad eyes.
"Alas!" Zhou Maolin sighed, finally letting the Xinqiao people succeed! Xianji Bridge and Xinqiao had been fighting for countless generations, and the Xinqiao people had the last laugh.
"Fortunately, we have almost watered the fields in the past few days. Otherwise, when it is time to transplant the rice seedlings, it will be too late to cry," Xiao Yinshun said.
"With this dry weather, how many days can this little water in the fields last? I think all the water in the rice fields will have to be drained before the rice seedlings are transplanted." Zhang Fangqing said worriedly.
"By that time, the water in the Xinqiao Brigade should be almost full. I don't believe they can block all the water without leaking," Xiao Yinshun said.
"What can we use for a little leakage of water? The upper part is cut off. We can drain this section of the river in a few days!" Zhang Fangqing said.
"Let's go, let's see how angry the people of Xinqiao are. Hum! If the commune hadn't supported them, I would have blown up their dams!" Xiao Yinshun was very angry.
Seeing the people of Xianji Bridge leaving one by one, the people of Xinqiao immediately cheered unbridled.
The water level in the Xinqiao Brigade River is getting higher and higher, but the water level in the Xianjiqiao Brigade River is slowly declining because there is no water source. The dams in this section of the Xianjiqiao Brigade River are not within the scope of the Xianjiqiao Brigade.
, so there is no way to heighten the dam like the Xinqiao Brigade did.
The early rice grains were already turning yellow, and the farmers in the Xianjiqiao Brigade had no time to think about what kind of impact the Xinqiao Brigade’s dam would have on Xianjiqiao. The farmers in the entire Xianjiqiao Brigade were all involved in the intense harvest.
.
Dozens of bamboo mats are neatly placed on the rice-shading flat of Xianjiqiao Brigade. The harvested rice is dried in the bamboo mats. Little kids holding bamboo sticks are driving them over from time to time to dig out the socialist corners.
It also prevents animals such as dogs and cats from rolling and chasing in the rice. For the farmers of Xianjiqiao, every grain of rice in this bamboo mat is so precious.
The Taoist priest also looked at the more than one acre of rice in his rice field with a bright smile on his face. This year, the rice ears were very heavy. The rice ears hung down heavily, almost sinking into the water in the rice field. The rice seedlings were very dense, and it was necessary to
Only when you push open the rice stalks can you see the water in the rice fields.
Although both Xiao Dajiang and Zhang Fangqing once told the Taoist priest not to worry, and that they would come over and help the Taoist priest thresh the rice when the brigade's rice was harvested. However, the Taoist priest did not want to owe other people's favors. From the heart, he was eager to win from others.
recognition rather than treating him as an object of sympathy.
As the apprentice of Xiao Dajiang, the most powerful carpenter in Xianji Bridge, Taoist Priest Xiao had already built a separate barn outside the Zushi Temple. In this way, even if the Zushi Temple caught fire, Taoist Priest Xiao would not lose his food rations. This barn
The director did not ask for help from anyone, but built the barn entirely by himself. He also built a roof on top, and then covered it with fir bark. All the wood in the barn was painted with thick tung oil, forming a
Thick protective layer.
But without a threshing machine or even a sickle, it was not an easy task for the road leader to collect the rice into the wooden warehouse without relying on others.
This one-acre field, looking at the momentum, may be able to harvest 700 kilograms of millet. This yield is much higher than the best field in Xianjiqiao Brigade.
The little Taoist suddenly remembered a story that the old Taoist told before, saying that a man with very high Taoist skills could turn a handful of soybeans into soldiers and horses to fight. The little Taoist thought to himself, if he could scatter beans and turn into soldiers, let them do it.
How wonderful would it be to harvest rice for yourself? Unfortunately, the Taoist priest knows the incantation of asking the ancestors to invite gods, but the Taoist priest does not know the incantation of sowing beans to make soldiers. This Taoist technique can only be thought about.
The old cat doesn't care what worries the little kid has. Anyway, the kid is full of bad ideas. After suffering a lot of hardships, the conclusion the old cat came up with is really full of bitter tears.
Although Big Yellow has always blindly followed the little Taoist, it didn't understand the troubles of the little Taoist and couldn't help. It could only lie quietly not far away from the little Taoist. It wanted to get closer, but it was only within the radius of the little Taoist.
Within one meter, it’s the kitten’s territory. This jealous little guy has had territorial awareness since he was a child. If Rhubarb comes even slightly close, it will immediately cause it to meow fiercely.
The kitten lay comfortably on the Taoist leader's legs and took a nap. Sometimes he opened his eyes and looked at the Taoist priest curiously, and sometimes he put his head on the Taoist leader's body to find a more comfortable place.
"Yes!" The little Taoist priest suddenly stood up.
As a result, the unprepared kitten fell off the little road leader with a snap. The kitten woke up and looked around blankly.
"who I am?"
"Where am I?"
"Where am I going?"
Dahuang jumped up and waggled his tail toward the trail leader reflexively.
The old cat jumped out suddenly. No matter what happened, it was always right to stay away from the kid.
The little Taoist priest looked at the old cat rushing out like a gust of wind in surprise, and muttered: "What's wrong with you again?"
The little Taoist priest was not frightened away by the madness of the old cat. He used some spiritual thoughts to control the wood spirit energy and went to the rice fields. As soon as the spirit energy came into contact with the rice seedlings, the rice stalks immediately withered and turned into powder, and all the essence
It seems that they are all flying into the rice, making the rice grains heavier and more lustrous, as if covered with a layer of golden light. The grains of a bunch of rice ears are suspended in the air, entering a field prepared by the path leader.
Just a basket of grain.
The Taoist priest's face immediately showed joy: "It is indeed feasible!"
The first test was successful, which made the Taoist priest extremely happy. Harvesting rice in this way is really easy. All the straw essence of the rice is absorbed into the rice, and the remaining straw turns into powder and blends into the soil. There is no single rice seed.
