Chapter 566 Great idea [asking for double monthly votes]
Yu Zhengxing's voice was stern, "The rise and fall of the continent are the responsibility of the monks; this is not my dream alone, but the dream of Loulan Guards in the past generations. It just came to me and happened to catch up with the changes in the world.
This is my creation, and it is also your creation!"
Hou Zi covered his face and felt sad: So, you have to use your private money to achieve such a good fortune?
Yu Zhengxing waved his hand and expressed his dream, "Use this underground river as a line to build a protective forest belt to block the sand invasion from the extreme west. If we can do this and persist for hundreds of years,
This place will return to the historical glory of the Loop, and you are the founders and witnesses of this great cause, leaving your names in history!"
He spoke with excitement, but the hundreds of monks below remained indifferent. Obviously, these people could not be easily instigated by drawing a big cake.
A monk raised his voice and asked, "Uncle Master, as you said, the scenery of the Snow River Valley in the past refers to the entire Snow River Basin, stretching for thousands of miles. So I want to know, was such a great undertaking only in the direction of Loulan? Or was it the entire Snow River Basin?
Do it together with the northwest border?”
Yu Zhengxing was very disappointed with these guys' preoccupations, but he still tried his best to explain.
"Our nearly three hundred miles of river in the direction of Guloulan dare to be the first in the world, and we are the first to take action! As a monk, you must be a pioneer, rather than following others..."
There was a voice shouting from below, "Don't sing high-key, talk about something real. We are not children. Painting cakes cannot solve the problem!"
Yu Zhengxing did not dare to rebuke this monk who was talking nonsense, because he knew that this was also what most monks thought, and he had to give them a convincing reason.
"The three hundred miles of underground river in the direction of Gu Loulan is the shallowest section of the entire desert underground river. The average river depth is about fifteen feet. If only the roots of trees absorb water, the roots only need to penetrate five feet under the sand.
It can be only 10 feet, and in some places there is even an abundant water source at an even shallower depth, which is why we in the Guloulan direction were the first to try it."
Another voice asked, "Uncle Master, have your so-called great achievements received support from higher levels? Have the orthodox forces of the northwest countries joined in? Those areas around us, in Dazu Qiu, Liusand Dunes, Tea Horse Road, Sea Buckthorn Sea, Huang
Will they start with us on the stone carvings, the triangular sand state, and the iron stone hill? If we only plant forests in this direction to block sand, how much effect can it have?"
Yu Zhengxing knew that this was the focus that he had to convince everyone. This was not something that could be accomplished by one person or a few people. Afforestation in a three-thousand-mile desert was too complicated and involved a huge amount.
"No! The northwest countries have doubts about this plan, and the Taoism in other directions thinks that our plan is completely whimsical! Therefore, we must only rely on our own strength to set an example. If we succeed, there will be no need to talk about it again in the future.
Everything will work out. If we fail, it goes without saying...
This may be a bet, it depends on whether you have such courage!"
There was a voice that hit the nail on the head, "Uncle Master, this is not a question of courage, but a question of commitment! Since there is no support from a higher level, where do the resources come from? Where can we gather the manpower? You won't let us pay for it out of our own pockets and devote ourselves to it, right?
?”
Yu Zhengxing made no secret, "Since there is no unified arrangement in this regard from above, of course there will be no resource tilt. We can only rely on ourselves for everything. And I can also say responsibly that even if sand blocking and afforestation is successful, our experience If it is promoted and popularized throughout the underground rivers of the northwest border, we will be recorded in the annals of history, and the resources you have paid will not be compensated at all, or you can ask for it from countless border residents in the northwest border?"
The scene was completely silent, but such a truth was more straightforward and shocking.
The key is that monks are a profession that is extremely sensitive to karma. This is not illusory, but will be reflected in every process and every step in their future practice.
Yu Zhengxing didn't give them much time to think about something like this. The more they thought about it, the more hesitant they became. They needed to cut through the mess quickly.
"Hou Zi, what did you say?"
Hou Tzu had a resentful expression on his face and was dissatisfied in his heart. You really think highly of me and let me be the one to take the lead.
When Yu Zhengxing revealed his true intention, the significance of this mission became clear; the existence of the underground river did not exist for a day or two, but had been flowing underground for thousands of years. How could it not be possible with the ability of the golden elixir monk? Know its path?
At least the golden elixir monks who guarded the direction of Gu Loulan for generations knew very well that the reason why they were asked to explore the underground river was not for the so-called undead creatures, but to let them understand the real situation of the desert in person, so that all monks We all have a more intuitive understanding of this.
When the ten pictures of each team are put together, it seems to be a vision, a dream, and a future.
It would be false to say that he is not moved, but he still has many questions to figure out.
"Uncle Master, are there any tree options suitable for the desert environment?"
Yu Zhengxing raised his voice and encouraged, "Populus euphratica is drought-resistant, axon trees are tenacious, and pine trees have deep roots. These trees can be seen everywhere in the northwest. They are easy to collect, easy to transport, and convenient to plant... What we need to get through is the second and third days of planting. In the next year, we need to set up a magic circle in the underground river to drive the water energy upward. As long as the trees take root in two or three years, there will be no need to control it in the future."
"The resource problem you are talking about is the consumption of the magic circle?"
Yu Zhengxing nodded, "If the water array is to be deployed in a forest belt that is more than three thousand miles long and at least ten miles wide, it will require a large amount of spiritual stones and array materials. This is the main consumption."
"Afforestation on the underground river is thousands of miles away from Loulan City. Have you ever considered the infestation of undead creatures?"
"The undead will definitely stop them. As long as they find out, they will never let humans successfully block the southward invasion of the desert. Therefore, the core of the plan is to build a new city of Loulan in the underground river!
Only by going forward to build the city can we react quickly to the undead creatures moving south. The king will die in Sheji, and the monks will guard Yanglin!"
"With only a hundred people, can we defend it?"
"If you don't defend, how can you talk about success or failure? When you are fighting with someone, will you ask yourself whether you can kill the person with your sword? Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, you are hesitant, what the hell, just be happy!"
Hou Zi stood up slowly. It was a big mistake to meet this old guy, but he still couldn't escape. Judging from the status of these disciples, he, Hou Zi, the sword-wielding soldier, was the one with the highest status among them. .
After opening their robes, everyone was shocked to see that this guy had a treasure gourd in his belt. How much greed did this guy have?
He took them off one by one and put them in front of him, "I'm asking a few more questions because I am responsible for my own wealth! Since you dare to bet with Master Yu, I dare to follow you! Thirty-seven treasure gourds are too big!"
