Chapter 564 Hydration Development

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Shuihe area is just to the west of Ya'an. The straight line is only more than a hundred miles away, but there are dozens of mountains in the middle. It is impossible for ordinary people to pass through. Therefore, a group of fifty or sixty people first went northwest to Diaomen Pass, and then turned along the river valley.  To the southwest, we passed through Zishi Pass, the second pass of Tianquan Liubo Recruitment Division, before arriving in this poor mountainous area.

    Lan Miaozhu had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Zhao Ran, he grabbed him and refused to let go.  Zhao Ran had gotten used to it these days, so he simply let him go. He was dragged away for two incense-burning hours. When he was about to climb the mountain, Lanmiao Zhucai reluctantly let go.

    Even though Zheng Supervisor is a man in his fifties, he climbs up the mountain as if he were walking on flat ground. When he arrived at the Shuihe Temple in the mountain, his face was still red and his heart was not beating. Zhao Ran could only nod his head - this was all he could tell.  This Zheng Supervisor is a practical person.

    The Shuihe Temple is entirely made of bamboo and wood, and many of the beams and columns have signs of decay, which makes it look sad.  The villages in the mountains near Shuihe Temple are even more miserable.  When Zhao Ran passed by, he saw that many families lived in underground huts, and the only household items inside were clay pots placed on the fire. Zhao Ran couldn't help but feel sympathy.

    Entering the Shuihe Temple, because there was not enough light, Lan Miaozhu took matters into his own hands, built a bonfire, and threw some pine cones into the bonfire. After a while, he picked them out with wooden branches, and the fragrance overflowed.  Everyone was peeling pine nuts and chatting while eating, which was quite a bit of mountain fun.

    Zhao Ran looked at Song Xiong who looked a little haggard beside him, and asked in a low voice: "How is it? Can you still bear it?"

    Song Xiong shook his head and sighed: "I've been vomiting bile these days. The skills you always taught me are almost in ruins"

    Zhao Ran smiled: "It doesn't matter, it will be fine as soon as these few days pass. But we must not relax here."

    Song Xiong nodded: "Yes, I understand. It doesn't look like there is alcohol in this place. Let's start practicing again tonight"

    Before he finished speaking, he heard Lan Miao congratulate him: "There is nothing to entertain tonight, just some earthy flavors from the mountains. The food is not good, so please forgive Abbot Zhao, but please rest assured, Abbot, the wine in our Shuihe Village is definitely strong enough."  ! The enthusiasm of our people in Shuihe Village will definitely stand the test!"

    Song Xiong suddenly turned pale.

    Needless to say, I drank countless people that night. From the time Zhao Ran arrived in Ya'an, he drank for eight days in a row, and this was when we officially started talking.

    Lan Miao Zhu took Zhao Ran through several nearby mountains and forests. Zhao Ran opened his eyes to explore the qi of heaven and earth, and finally chose a valley where three mountains met.  This area is surrounded by mountains and valleys, with approximately more than a thousand acres of land suitable for development into medicinal fields. If fully developed, it can fully meet the demand for medicinal materials from Huiminji Medical Hall and Junshan Pharmaceutical.

    Once the territory is decided, just do it.  If you want to develop medicinal fields, you must clear dense woods and shrubs using a two-out-of-three approach.  To clear the woods and shrubs, people from Shuihe Village must be recruited to work.  To recruit the people of Shuihe Village to work, it is useless to just take money; a large amount of food and tools must be purchased.  In order to transport food and tools into the Shuihe Mountains, a mountain road that can pass horse-drawn carriages must be built.  So the whole project started with road construction.

    This mountain road is about thirty miles long and connects to Zishiguan. If we hope that the people in the mountain can build the road, they may not be able to do it in five or ten years.  Zhao Ran definitely couldn't wait that long, so he had to roll up his sleeves and do it himself!

    There are probably more than 70 difficult places in the construction of the entire mountain road, and Zhao Ran can't finish it by himself.  He simply gave the talisman to Senior Brother Luo and asked him to go to Junshan and drive over Master Wuse, Baishanjun and Taoist Nangui.

    These three flying guys arrived at Shuihe Temple the next night. Together with Zhao Ran and Lao Lu, they fought hard for ten days and overcame all the more than 70 steep and difficult points.  The rest of the bulk of the work was relatively easy. Lan Miaozhu mobilized hundreds of mountain people in the Shuihe area to begin the excavation and leveling of the mountain road.

    In order to transport food to these mountain people, Zhao Ran once again came up with the idea of ????Baihe. After repeated persuasion, Baishangjun finally agreed to take Zhao Ran back and forth again. At the same time, he also pulled in the Taoist Nangui to relieve himself.  burden.  The condition Zhao Ran offered to Nangui Taoist was that after the Shuihe Village project was completed, Nangui Taoist would be exempted from the remaining period of voluntary labor in Taihua Mountain.

    So in Ya'an at the end of February, such a spectacle often appeared in the sky: a white crane and a wild goose flew quickly over the top of the mountains. The white crane carried a Taoist priest on its back, and the wild goose had a huge sack hanging from its neck.  Below the white crane and wild geese, a colorful golden pheasant kept jumping and gliding between the tops of the mountains, desperately chasing the white cranes and wild geese flying above. The golden pheasant also had a huge sack hanging on its neck

    "Zhao Ran shuttled back and forth between Ya'an and Shuihe dozens of times. Using three storage instruments and two sacks, Zhao Ran successfully transported thousands of stones of grain in seven days.The huge project of food provided a strong guarantee for the opening of mountain roads.

    Zhao Ran spent hundreds of taels of silver just after the project started, but he didn't feel bad at all because he had already felt the power of merit provided by the mountain people from the Shuihe area.

    There are more than 2,000 mountain residents in the Shuihe area. Once the roads are built and the medicinal fields are cultivated, this will be another source of merit!

    With Zhao Ran, the immortal master, directly assisting them with Taoism, the mountain people of Shuihe Village suddenly became extremely confident in their future life, became enthusiastic and drove the mountain road full of energy.

    The Zheng Supervisory Academy in Lizhou and the Lu Supervisory Academy in Ya'an have both gone back respectively. It is definitely impossible for Zhao Ran to stay in Shuihe forever. The construction of the mountain road is expected to be at least three months, and he cannot stay in Shuihe for that long.

    The reason why Zhao Ran brought Song Xiong was to let him handle this matter, so he kept him, gave him two thousand silver, and asked him to take charge of the remaining affairs.  At the same time, Zhao Ranfei asked Master Guo Zhiwei of Xiaojunshan to select medicinal seeds and seedlings. When he was ready, he rushed to Shuihe to start preparations for the cultivation of medicinal fields.

    After driving away the three big birds, Zhao Ran rode an old donkey from Shuihe to Diaomen Pass. He planned to say goodbye to Cheng Zhicheng before returning to Guyang.  This trip to Lizhou consumed a lot of time drinking. It has exceeded the one month planned when we set off. It is time to go back.

    When passing Zishi Pass, I saw that the city was closed and the walls were filled with sergeants, showing a state of tight alert.  Zhao Ran felt slightly curious, wondering if the Tubo people had invaded the country?

    He did not enter Zishiguan, but went around the mountain and continued on.  When we arrived at the Diaomen Pass, we saw that the security here was even tighter. Sentries were set up to patrol many key locations not only above the Guan City but also below the Guan City.

    Zhao Ran came here a while ago and was warmly received by the high commanding officer. Many sergeants are familiar with his appearance.  A sergeant quickly informed him that he did not have to wait long at the foot of Guancheng before he was connected to the watchtower gate.
