The people of Xiaoqianbao finally waited for the spring season.
The large pool in front of the fort has turned into a large pit with a radius of fifty feet and a depth of ten feet. If it is full of water, even in the dry season, it will be enough to support the people of the fort for a year.
The preparatory work for the Bailian River breach has been basically completed, and the dike, dike and bell mouth of the dike have reached a certain scale.
There are three practitioners guarding here, and the whole winter is relatively safe. There are occasional monsters that harass, but they are all repulsed and killed without mercy. Not only Wang Mian Fang Yazi is ruthless, but also the enlightened Taoist who uses the realm of Bigu.
His attacks are also extremely powerful.
The three of them worked together in a tacit understanding to ensure that the river workers could work at full strength with maximum safety, which is why the current progress has been achieved.
In mid-March, the ground began to thaw, but unfortunately, the weather was not kind, and the rain came very early. It rained almost every day, and it was difficult to see sunny days. Anyone with a little experience in the Yinling Wasteland knows that
, this is preparing for the next heavy rain.
Next to the Bailian River Embankment, three people stood tall and watched the river workers finishing their work; in fact, most of the river workers had already left, and there was not much earthwork left, just some reinforcement and leakage repair work.
"When the water rises, the Bailian River is also quite large. Pindao has traveled back and forth to the Bailian River many times, but this is the first time he has seen such a spectacular sight of the rushing river." Wei Mingdao people couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Mian sighed, and after being together for a long time, he spoke more casually, "How spectacular is it? It's just that the water is shallow! The water speeds up in the rainy season and washes away the rocks. It's just a superficial scene. In fact, it's only a few meters deep.
Waist-length.”
Taoist Weiming didn't take it seriously, knowing that most of these Quanzhen disciples were outspoken, either boring gourds like Fang Yazi, or outspoken like Wang Mian, or, well, Dong Houzi was a little weird?
"I just found out today why it takes so much effort to clear the mouth of a river. It turns out that it is because I am worried that the river will surge during the rainy season and cause flooding. These two Taoist friends have great foresight!"
Wang Mian did not take the credit, "What vision do we have? We don't know water in Shan country. This is all senior brother Hou's plan. He said that water conservancy projects in Anhe country need to be like this. The most dangerous part is to break the river.
That section may affect the surrounding people's livelihood and fertile land, so it is better to make the embankment stronger and take more careful precautions than to cause a catastrophic disaster when the embankment breaks!"
Wei Mingdao was deeply impressed, "Yes, especially in this rainy season. But since the rainy season seems to be coming, how can we dig these dozens of miles long canal? Although I am not familiar with water conservancy, I also know that this is not just digging a canal.
Ditches, how to strengthen them so that they don’t turn into smelly mud ditches? The work involved is not easy. Now that the ground has basically melted, it thaws especially quickly under rain. Do you have a plan for when to dig the ditches? "
Wang Mian shook his head, "You don't understand, and I don't understand either! Only Senior Brother Hou, who was born in the south, understands this. So, wait for the news. He is Senior Brother and he is responsible. I will just contribute."
Master Wei Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly. These two sticks were completely brainless. They relied on Senior Brother Hou for everything and had no independent judgment as a practitioner.
To be honest, he has some opinions about the dams at the breach of Bailian River. They are indeed complete and well thought out, but are they a bit fussy?
After all, this is just a middle river in Yinling. It may be a small river in the south. The water is shallow and small. Even if it overflows, how much land can be flooded? Besides, this place is vast and sparsely populated, how big can it be?
Influence?
In his opinion, this is Hou Zi's imitation of the Anhe water conservancy project; in terms of water conservancy, to laymen, he is an expert, but in front of the laymen, he is a layman, completely ignorant of flexibility, that is, he has grasped the Xiaoqianbao
It is the weakness of the people's eagerness for water that makes them so aggressive.
It is simply a waste of people and money. It can be completely simple and simple, and it will save many people from working hard every day and night.
But fortunately, it's finally finished.
Because of the constant rain, the rest of the reinforcement project seems to be a bit delayed. It is slowly wasting time in the delay, which makes everyone in the Mingdao have the urge to leave regardless. However, after persisting for several months, it can't be done no matter what.
Shouldn't you let it go before it's finally finished?
Amidst such suffering, the rain is getting heavier and heavier. The water in the Bailian River, which was originally three meters deep, has now surged to six or seven feet, and there is no sign of stopping.
On this day, there was thunder and lightning in the sky and strong winds (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 136 Spring is blooming
, the clouds were like lead, so low that it seemed like you could reach them just by jumping up. Even the inexperienced person could tell that a heavy rainstorm that might leave a mark in the history of Yinling hydrology was about to come!
The remaining river workers had evacuated yesterday, and now the empty Bailian and dike breach areas were the only three lonely figures left!
Taoist Wei Ming was very puzzled, "Senior Brother Hou, you are hugging each other in the small front fort, with three beautiful girls waiting on you, and you two are left here to guard the embankment in the rain? And I don't understand what on earth we are guarding?"
With the weather like this, the monsters won’t come out, right?”
Wang Mian smiled mysteriously, "Fellow Taoist, you are wrong. The more this time is, the more we must stay together! If you have doubts, why not wait and see?"
The Ming Dao people feel uneasy, but they don’t know where the uneasiness comes from? So they can only stay here. These two Peiyuan cultivators dare to be alone in the wilderness in such bad weather, but he, a monk at the Bigu Realm, doesn’t dare?
With this thought, he felt at ease and wanted to see what these Quanzhen disciples were going to do! This was also the purpose of his hard work here to protect them!
The rain began to intensify in the evening. From the continuous rain at the beginning, to the light rain later, it turned into a heavy downpour in the middle of the night, and it became heavier and heavier!
Under the confluence of small streams and ditches in the upper reaches, the water in the Bailian River has surged to more than one foot, and some low places have already overflowed. The dike where they are standing is less than two feet away from the rushing river at their feet!
When the time came to Mao, the rain could not even be described as pouring. It was simply like pouring a vat or pouring a lake! The water line was rising at a speed visible to the naked eye. At this time, the Bailian River really had a trace of whiteness.
Dragon, the momentum that never returns!
"With such heavy rain, the dam will collapse! All our hard work these past few months has been in vain!" Weiming Taoist shouted.
Wang Mian and Fang Yazi looked at each other, "Is it time?"
"Here we go, let's start!"
The two of them walked towards the breach, and casually took out a few things from the treasure gourd. As a Taoist with a keen eye, they could recognize what they were even in the dark and difficult-to-see environment due to the heavy rain!
It's an earth-moving thunder! It's a thing specially used for mining in the world of cultivation. It doesn't have much technical content, but it has only one benefit. It's very powerful. It can blow up mountains to open roads and blast through walls and cities!
What are you going to do with something like this at this time? Weiming's mind was a little confused for a while, and he didn't even dare to think about it.
"You are crazy! You want to breach the embankment when the water is like this? Aren't you afraid of causing the destruction of all the people in Yinling?"
The two of them didn't look back, but Wang Mian laughed loudly and said: "It's not us who want to do it, this is all senior brother's idea, you can go find him!"
Weiming's heart sank, and when he turned around, a familiar figure walked out of the heavy rain!
...The whole night was full of stars and moonlight, and the clouds were low and the sky was thundering. Pingling suddenly saw a rapid torrent, and knew it was rain coming from another mountain!
