Several horses galloped past on the road in the distance. They were the town's police officers. They rushed towards the distance and quickly disappeared from sight.

The movement there attracted the attention of farmers in the field. Some people looked up and looked in the direction where the policemen disappeared, shook their heads and sighed.

Yunjing's senses were sharp, and he heard two farmers in the adjacent fields discussing the policemen who were passing by. They said that there was probably another fight over water somewhere, and the government needed to go to calm it down. Since the beginning of spring,

During this period, nearly ten armed fights over water took place around Niujiao Town alone. Two villages even got into a fight with hundreds of people participating. Several people were killed and injured at that time.

The residual value is as high as double digits...

Hearing what they said, Yunjing felt even more depressed.

Fighting for water and fighting with weapons are unavoidable in such weather and seasons. Farmers need to survive, and survival requires food, and food comes from the fields. Therefore, it is worth fighting for their lives in order to survive and have water to irrigate their fields!

This is just around Niujiao Town. The situation is pretty good, but what about further away? I can’t imagine what the situation will be like. If it’s not good, farmers can’t see hope, but if someone deceives them...

It’s not that the government has done nothing. In fact, the government is more anxious than anyone else. After all, spring plowing is related to farming and the country. But if God doesn’t rain, what can they do?

This situation is not just one state or one place, but the same situation across the country and even other countries. There is no rain, spring plowing is difficult, and farming is hopeless...

Yunjing took the time to visit the Li River. He usually took action early. Perhaps his suggestions were adopted. Huge waterwheels were erected one after another on both sides of the Lijiang River. The diameter of the largest ones was nearly a hundred meters. Some were strong.

The earth was torn apart and canals were dug to divert the water from the Li River to the distant fields to irrigate the fields.

There are huge waterwheels everywhere on both sides of the Lijiang River, and there are many canals on the shore. The diversion of water has caused the water level of the Lijiang River, which has already dropped seriously, to drop further...

Even though the whole country is working hard, it is still a drop in the bucket in the face of the drought that has affected the entire world. Countless people see it and are anxious in their hearts, but it is useless to be anxious.

After walking around Niujiao Town, Yunjing headed towards Xiaoxi Village with a heavy heart. According to what he observed, even if he tried his best to divert the groundwater, he still couldn't estimate that at least half of the town's entire world was covered with water.

There is no water source to irrigate the fields, let alone dry land.

If the climate continues like this, the groundwater will not be inexhaustible. I am afraid that in one year, the grain production in Niujiao Town can reach half of last year. It will be a blessing. Even if there is no harvest, it will not be a failure.

possible!

This is just Niujiao Town, what about further away?

"I have really tried my best," Yun Jing said bitterly in his heart. He has never been a pessimistic person, but facing the current situation, what can Yun Jing do?

Don't talk about him, even Ye Tian, ​​who is suspected of being God's own son, is of no use, he can only stare.

From the time he came to this world until now, eighteen years later, Yunjing felt bitter emotions in his heart for the first time. No matter how difficult the days were back then, he had never been like this.

Drought affects more than just the fields. Dry weather can easily cause fires. These are only visible to the naked eye. Various banditry and panic make people dare not think about it in detail.

If this continues, the court will definitely find ways to provide disaster relief. However, the whole country is like this. How much can it take care of if the country is hollowed out?

Yunjing has never experienced such a catastrophe, but he has seen it in film and television works in his previous life. In the face of such a disaster, not only one or two people died, but millions and tens of millions, which was more serious than war.

It's terrible. The so-called ten rooms and nine empty rooms describes this kind of disaster situation. It is not impossible for it to even evolve into a place with no human habitation for thousands of miles.

I looked up at the sky, why is this happening?

Rumor has it that Emperor Dali is already preparing to issue an edict to offer sacrifices to the sky and pray for rain, but will that be useful?

He didn't go to the town or the county seat. Even Yunjing didn't plan to go to crowded places because the drought was discussed everywhere. Whenever he heard this, his mentality became heavier and more depressed.

He is not escaping, but there is really no other way. If such a situation occurs in every village and town, it will not be a problem, but now the whole world is experiencing a severe drought. Under such circumstances, no matter how powerful his cloud scene is, it is no better than an ant.

What's the difference? I can only pray that God will open his eyes.

The school in the town has started, and the younger brothers and sisters have continued to go to school. It is not their turn to worry about the general environment. They can just do their best.

Returning to Xiaoxi Village, standing at the entrance of the village, I saw that the villagers in Xiaoxi Village did not have much sadness on their faces. They were farming normally as in previous years.

After all, this is where Yunjing grew up. He will always be partial to others. There is abundant water and it can ensure that every family's fields are not affected.

People are selfish, right? He, Yunjing, is also a normal person. When he takes care of his surroundings, he doesn't mind helping more people, but he has to do his best. It's really uncomfortable to feel powerless.

Thinking too much will only make you depressed.

Looking at the scene of villagers farming in Xiaoxi Village, Yunjing couldn't help but fell into silence for a long time.

He couldn't figure out why there was such a severe drought. If it was okay to talk about a few states, but now it is affecting the whole country, is it reasonable? What is the problem?

There was silence until the uneven sound of reading came from the village, which made Yunjing reveal a forced smile on his face.

The school in Xiaoxi Village was built last year. It is the result of the joint efforts of the villagers. All the procedures are complete, prepared by the government, and Yunjing went there himself.

In other words, there is no difference between the school in Xiaoxi Village and the school in Niujiao Town. Children studying in Xiaoxi Village School and students in Niujiao Town School have the same imperial examination qualifications.

Xiaoxi Village actually has its own school, and the younger generations can become scholars. This is something that all the villagers never dared to dream about. When they heard the sound of children reading, the busy villagers in the fields slowed down a little, for fear that

They were disturbed, and occasionally looked up in the direction of the school. Everyone had a smile from the bottom of their hearts, and everyone was full of energy. That was hope, that was the future, that was a better tomorrow.

Now there are fifty-three students in Xiaoxi Village School. After all, Xiaoxi Village is only that big. There are only twenty or thirty households in total. There can be fifty-three students. Yunjing proposes that all students aged six and above

The following are all for studying. Of course, if other people, including adults, want to attend, they can also attend. After all, it is a school in the village.

There are two or three teachers in the school, and the teaching staff is magnificent. The mountain leader is an old scholar in his sixties, and the other two are old boys. Yunjing is also the honorary mountain leader.

The three people who originally invited the three people to teach in Xiaoxi Village all declined in every possible way. However, after Yunjing personally came to invite them, they all packed up their things and rushed over overnight. They didn't have to give face to the villagers, they didn't have to give money and face.

But that was Yunjing's personal invitation. They all ran very fast and were in constant contact with Yunjing. They did it for free.

After withdrawing his thoughts, Yun Jing's eyes flickered, and then he rose into the sky silently, heading straight towards the capital.

There was a severe drought in the world, which was very abnormal. Something must be wrong. Yunjing went to find Master Deng to inquire. Yunjing went anyway, knowing that there was a high probability that he would not get any useful information.
