The afforestation plan of Longxugou is proceeding smoothly.
With the continuous flow of array materials, the monks who had the standard for the array quickly set up the array. After all, it was just the most superficial array in the world of cultivation. There was no threshold for setting up the array, as long as you could escape through it.
The monks each have their own duties. Those who are not able to escape from the earth are on guard from a distance, and beware of those undead creatures that do not know why they accidentally break in. Things like this can be hidden for a while, but for undead creatures with little organization, Thousands of years of experience have also made them have little foresight of this kind of behavior of humans.
In the past month, with the supply of a large amount of resources, Longxugou remained as usual on the surface, but earth-shaking changes were taking place underground. One after another, magic circles were established one after another, densely packed.
The underground river under Longxugou was laid out in January. Nearly a thousand magic circles completely covered hundreds of miles of underground rivers. This will be used as a pilot project. If there are no problems with tree planting, this will be used. spread to the surroundings.
Under the joint action of nearly a thousand magic circles, the water in the underground river that was originally buried tens of feet deep was artificially lifted upwards, so that now you only need to drill into the sand layer for a few feet to feel the abundant water in it. If you work hard, such conditions are the best growing environment for plants. The current season is just right, the temperature is suitable, and the wind and sand are weak, it is the best planting season of the year in the northwest.
These are all within the consideration of right conduct.
One month later, the first large-scale airship landed in Longxugou, and the first batch of 100,000 drought-resistant saplings of various kinds were unloaded. This was collected by Yu Zhengxing through the operation of the Zhongshan Chamber of Commerce behind his back. Although the Zhongshan State did not have the spare capacity to support them. In this reforestation plan, you can still do some things within your own capabilities, such as complicated sapling collection, transportation, etc., all of which are provided free of charge.
It can be seen that Yu Zhengxing prepared meticulously in advance for this day.
The monks who stayed above immediately started planting. For mortals, this is a very hard work. Digging holes, planting, filling soil, and watering. The whole process is regulated, but for monks, all this No problem, even people who have never learned to plant can quickly get started.
Under the guidance of monks with planting experience, hundreds of people were able to complete the planting within a few days. Each person could only plant a thousand trees, which was very easy.
Hou Zi used up the last bit of array material under the sand layer. In the past month he had stayed underground and barely breathed fresh air. He participated in the entire process of laying the underground array. Not only did he lay it out with his own hands, Whether it was laid by others, it will be drilled on site.
Because his Earth Escape skills include a very unique Thousand Miles of Geographical Map, which is equivalent to arranging a huge moving array underground along the river. In this array, his movements are faster than others. Humans have an advantage; if he uses another earth escape technique, Cao Gentan, in conjunction with the newly planted trees, he will be a freak in the sand of the underground river that no one else can match.
He always believed that as a kind of intelligent creatures, undead creatures would one day understand the true importance of human underground magic circles sooner or later.
Fighting also requires preparation for a rainy day.
When you emerge from the sand, you can see saplings everywhere. Although they are not green yet, nor tall and strong, the protective forest planted under strict regulations is arranged in rows and columns, ten miles wide and dozens of miles wide. Long, like a silent army, silently guarding.
Although the plan was crazy and sounded unrealistic, when all of it actually appeared before his eyes, he had to be impressed by the foresight of the older generation of monks such as Yu Zhengxing.
Several monks from the Gui team gathered around him, including an outsider who was not an outsider. Wang Gandang also joined this afforestation plan and contributed a lot of money. It must be admitted that this man is still very discerning. The key is As an adventurer, he has no shortage of gambling skills.
"Looks good? You guys are not slow."
Huang Fairy glanced and said, "Planting trees is not too difficult. Now we have to water each tree manually every day to survive the most dangerous transplantation period. I heard them say that it will be done in a month." There is no need to water. The next step is to see how effective the water power of the formation can be. There is no problem in theory. These tree species are the most drought-tolerant tree species in the northwest. The early growth period is very fast. In less than a year, there will be It becomes lush and lush.”
Nan Xiangye curled his lips and said, "Yes, they are planted with spiritual stones. They are not only lush and green, but also sparkling."
Wang Gandang chuckled, "To be honest, it was quite distressing at the beginning. It was all earned by sticking to the waistband over the years, but now that we have seen the results, even if it is only part of it, we feel that it is worth it! If we can really persevere, If we go on and plant this protective forest in the entire direction of Guloulan, and even in the entire northwest direction for tens of thousands of miles, then no matter how much we pay, it will be worth it."
Yuan Shangyuan said in a muffled voice, "The real test hasn't come yet."
Hou Zi smiled, "How are you up there lately? Are there any undead creatures approaching?"
Nan Xiangye shook his head, "There are one to two hundred monks here, and the occasional ghosts can't make trouble. I guess the undead don't even know what we are doing here? They have no organizational form, and there is no unified dispatch. "Uncle Yu said that the defense line should be pushed a hundred miles outside the protective forest to try to block the undead creatures' perception of the front line of Longxugou to the maximum extent."
Hou Zi nodded, "It's a good idea. If we only afforestation along the front line of Longxugou, it won't be a problem to hide it for three to five years. But if we start to expand to the two wings of Longxugou, we will soon face a shortage of manpower." question.
How many people can be freed up to block formations, plant trees, transport from the rear, etc.? By the way, have there been any new monks joining recently? The northwest countries are just looking at it, indifferent?"
Huang Xianzi sighed softly, "Senior Brother Hou knows that just ten days ago, the Qinmen crossed the gate and fought in the Shayu area, resulting in a lot of casualties... This is just the beginning. Next, the two major northwest countries will fight again. No one knows what they are doing, but one thing is certain, the help we originally hoped for from them may be in vain."
Hou Ting was stunned, "They ignore foreign enemies, but are keen on killing each other. Are these two orthodoxies stupid..."
Nan Xiangye explained helplessly, "Historically, these two forces in the northwest have always had a grudge. They have never completely subsided for thousands of years. They always have to do this again every one or two hundred years.
People in the northwest have a straight temper and impulsive personality, and even Taoist ideals cannot change their innermost being; therefore, it is not unexpected that the war begins, but we are not very lucky to have caught up with it at this time."
