    ?

    After the collapse of the Wuxiu Reservoir, Xu Yishan came to the reservoir for the first time.

    He was stunned by the horror in front of him.

    The entire dam has been spanned beyond recognition.  The huge water flow rushed out of the dam, sinking the river channel under the dam several meters.

    On the bare river bed, there are many huge stones.

    The water in the reservoir used to be vast and misty.  But now, there is only a shocking piece of dry soil left.

    This flood that came and went quickly completely tore the Wuxiu Reservoir full of holes.

    According to statistics, after the reservoir collapsed, the flood broke through two roads and caused five landslides.  A total of more than 30 houses were damaged, and countless chickens, ducks, pigs and cattle were washed away.  At least ten people were killed in the floods.

    Wuxiu Mountain stands alone in a piece of mud, without water surrounding Wuxiu Mountain, it looks so dilapidated and so sad.

    In the past, Xu Yishan had to borrow a small boat from the reservoir management office to go to Wuxiu Mountain, but now, it seems that he can pass by just lifting his legs.

    A reservoir without water is like a fish naked on the beach, lifeless.

    Xu Yishan went up Wuxiu Mountain and walked all the way to Wuxiu Temple.  Standing at the gate of the temple, he shouted a few times, "Master Wuxiu, Master Wuxiu."

    He yelled several times, but no one answered.  His heart sank, he walked through the main hall, and went directly to the residence of the old monk Wuxiu behind the temple.

    In the past, when he came, before he arrived, the old monk Wuxiu knew about it a long time ago, and would loudly remind him to pay attention to the long branches and not to hang up his clothes.

    The old monk Wuxiu sat cross-legged on the ground, his face was like gold paper.

    Xu Yishan took a step forward, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Master, I am Xu Yishan, and I have come to see you."

    The old monk Wuxiu slowly opened his eyes, with a smile on his face, "Yishan, you haven't been here for a long time."

    Xu Yishan explained: "Master, I am an ordinary person, and I have too many ordinary things."

    The old monk Wuxiu let out a sigh, and said slowly: "In life, there will be a return and a farewell. Yishan, you came just in time, the old monk should go."

    Xu Yishan asked in surprise: "Master, where are you going?"

    "Go to where I should go." The old monk Wuxiu closed his eyes and said: "Without Xiu, there is no water, and my life will end here."

    Xu Yishan sighed: "The power of nature is too great. It has been almost 60 years since the Wuxiu Reservoir was destroyed overnight. What a pity."

    "Everything in the world has reincarnation. You don't have to feel sorry." The old monk Wuxiu comforted him: "If you have the heart, you can restore the Wuxiu reservoir to its original state."

    Xu Yishan said embarrassingly: "Master, I'm afraid I don't have the ability."

    The old monk Wuxiu opened his eyes again and said: "As long as you have the heart, there is no reason why you can't do anything in the world. This old man is destined for you, and I want to entrust you with something, what do you think?"

    Xu Yishan respectfully said: "As long as the master orders, I will go all out to do it."

    Before coming, Xu Chijiao asked him to bring a pack of herbs to the old monk Wuxiu, and told Xu Yishan to let the old monk drink it.

    So, he took out the herbal bag and said, "Master, let me decoct the medicine for you."

    The old monk Wuxiu shook his head slowly and said: "Forget it. The deadline has come, and the Daluo Jinxian can't do it."

    His eyes fell on a large tank in the corner, and he smiled calmly: "If I go back, can you promise me one thing?"

    Xu Yishan nodded, feeling sad in his heart.

    "Rebuild the unrepaired reservoir and benefit the people."

    Xu Yishan thought to himself, the Wuxiu Reservoir collapsed, and a dam was washed away by the flood.  reconstruction?  Easier said than done.

    But he didn't want to fulfill the wish of the old monk, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "I will do everything possible to restore the Wuxiu reservoir."

    The old monk smiled, took out a book from under the futon, handed it to Xu Yishan and said: "In this book, there are my life-long health secrets. You put it away, it will come in handy one day."

    When Xu Yishan heard it, he felt that the old monk was saying his last words, and he suddenly became extremely uncomfortable.

    "You can understand the things in the book by yourself." The old monk said with a sigh of relief: "Yishan, go to the main hall and beat the drums and bells for me."

    Xu Yishan went to the main hall as he said, picked up the drumsticks, and beat the big drum.

    Knocked three times, went to get the weeping wood again, and struck the big bell eighteen times.

    Suddenly, over the empty Wuxiu Reservoir, the sound of bells and drums echoed.

    A group of old crows flew up into the sky with a whirring sound, and let out a few shrill cries.

    When he returned to the back, he found that the old monk Wuxiu had already sat down.??Large tank.  His eyes were closed tightly, and when he felt his pulse, he lost all breath.

    The old monk sat down and made no sound.

    Xu Yishan couldn't hold back, and suddenly burst into tears.

    Xu Yishan remembered that when he drank sweet-scented osmanthus wine with the old monk in Wuxiu Temple, he didn't know if the old monk was drunk, or he was joking, saying that after he became immortal in the future, his body would sit in a vat and be placed in a cave on the cliff in the backyard.

    He took Xu Yishan to see the cave, which just happened to be enough to store a large tank.

    He thought of the scene with the old monk, and the more he thought about it, the more sad he felt.

    The old monk Wuxiu is a real strange person, no one knows how old he has lived.

    When Xu Yishan was inspecting the Wuxiu Reservoir, he heard people talk about the old monk of Wuxiu Mountain, and he also knew that this unattractive Wuxiu Mountain hides many unknown secrets.

    For example, without the consent of the old monk, no matter who it is, it is almost impossible to find the gate of the temple even if it sees the Wuxiu Temple is close at hand.

    As if there is an invisible barrier, let people go around, but you can't find the temple or see people.

    Some people say that this is an ecstasy array set up by the old monk Wuxiu. If a stranger crashes into it, the soul will lose its way.

    The death of the old monk Wuxiu should be related to the collapse of the Wuxiu reservoir.  With no water in the reservoir, his life will come to an end.

    After he knelt down in front of the vat, he hugged the vat with both hands, and he wanted to move the vat into the cave.

    Originally thought it was very heavy, but unexpectedly, he just hugged the big tank with both hands, and he hugged the big tank.  Almost as light as a feather.

    By the time he finished all this work, it was almost evening.

    Xu Yishan took a short rest, got up and went to the main hall.

    Looking at the drums, bells and futons in front of me, I couldn't help but feel sad again.

    He picked up the drumstick again, struck seven seven forty-nine times in a row, and struck the bell for ninety-nine eighty-one times.

    The bell and drum ring again, and it has become a swan song.  From then on, there was no sound of bells and drums on Wuxiu Mountain.

    Xu Yishan suppressed his grief and thought to himself, he must find a way to realize the dream of the old monk Wuxiu and make Wuxiu Reservoir come alive again.

    ?Going down the mountain and back to the reservoir management office, Xu Yishan asked the administrator if the county had any instructions for the Wuxiu reservoir?

    The administrator smiled wryly: "There is no hair. I heard that the county does not plan to rebuild the Wuxiu reservoir."

    "Why?" Xu Yishan asked in surprise.

    The administrator said: "I don't know the specific reason. Maoshan County has no repairs, and luck should be exhausted."

    Xu Yishan shook his head and said: "The county will not ignore the Wuxiu Reservoir. After all, this is the lifeblood of Maoshan County."

    The administrator smiled and said: "Xiao Xu, you can manage it if you have the ability. In one month, our management office will also be withdrawn."

    "It can't be withdrawn, don't worry." Xu Yishan comforted him: "As you said, there is no Wuxiu Reservoir in Maoshan County, so is it still Maoshan County?"

    He was thinking about how to bring Wuxiu Reservoir back to life.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
