For this important stress test, Zhao Ran not only invited Hong Zesou out of the mountain, but Chi Songzi and Grandma Long Gu were also invited to Yingtian by his flying talisman. Together with Sun Zhenren's master and apprentice, the command headquarters gathered a Hedao, two Lianxu, and three great alchemists. With this power, testing can be truly effective.
At first, Hong Zesou was unwilling to go out. When his in-laws were in trouble, he was blocked in the cave by Master Shao and could not get out. He felt that he had not done his best and was embarrassed to see others.
But Zhao Ran came to invite him personally, and said that the two masters of Xu Lian and all the monks in the capital would congratulate him on his visit. Then he turned from shame to joy and agreed to help. As expected, he arrived today as promised.
Zhao Ran specially prepared a welcome ceremony, made a recommendation to Hong Zesou, scratched the old carp's itch, and coaxed him to overjoy, and then began to discuss the pressure test plan.
At midnight, it was confirmed again that the river surface had been cleared, and several high-level practitioners above the Grand Master set out at the same time. Fu Sihai, Fu Jiufang and Granny Longgu got on the bridge pier, while Hong Zesou, Sun Biyun and Chi Songzi got into the water.
Hong Zesou transformed into his true form and began to circle around the bridge pier, swimming faster and faster, rolling up a rapidly rotating whirlpool at the bottom of the river. The vortex drives the river water to rotate, forming a powerful and continuous force, setting off eddy currents, tearing and pushing the bridge piers.
Its power was so great that even Sun Biyun and Chi Songzi, two practitioners of Lianxu, could not withstand it and retreated ten feet further.
The two of them were not idle, and each produced a magic weapon. Sun Biyun was a purple gold compass, and Chisongzi was a glass paperweight. They controlled the magic weapons together and followed the trend of the vortex to help it rotate.
At this moment, there were huge waves on the river, and the water surged more than three feet high. Wave after wave hit the bridge piers standing in the river crazily.
The command post on the shore has long been withdrawn to the high embankment. Despite this, there are still endless waves overflowing the embankment. The waves rolled up by the waves formed rain and mist and spread to both sides of the bank, like rain, soaking everyone's clothes.
This continued for more than an hour. Many rolling logs and broken boats were lowered from the upper reaches. Driven by the wild current, they rushed towards the bridge pier like wild horses and crashed on it.
At the end of the ugly moment, the three great masters of Wudang who had been observing the shape of the bridge on the bridge pier took the flying magic weapon and left the bridge pier, flew to the upstream direction, and together they shot a set of high-level wind talismans to form a hurricane talisman formation in the air.
In an instant, a strong wind blew up, rolling up higher waves and hitting the bridge piers. The wind spread to the high embankments on both sides of the bank, causing the big trees to sway from side to side and the leaves to rustle.
A set of wind talismans can last for a stick of incense. The magic power of the talisman array has just been exhausted. The three great refiners shot another set of high-level wind talismans to keep the wind going.
For this test, Zhao Ran prepared a third-level advanced wind talisman worth 3,000 taels of silver to ensure that the wind force would not decrease.
There are monks on the embankment, and ordinary people have retreated long ago, otherwise they will be blown directly into the river by the strong wind.
With the help of the wind, Hong Zesou began to use his strength, leaped from the bottom of the river to the sky, jumped over the bridge pier, and fell into the water from the other side. As he jumped out of the water again and again, the waves gradually rose, forming a huge wave more than ten feet high, which was shot from above and crashed down hard.
? One huge wave followed another, causing the river water to fly all over the sky, and it was pouring rain all over the Lixu area.
This is the power of Hedao!
It was not until the beginning of the Mao period that Hong Zesou stopped, transformed into a human again and went to the shore. Sun Biyun and Chi Songzi also put away their magic weapons and climbed onto the bridge pier.
Zhao Ran thanked Hong Zesou: "Seniors have worked hard. After the bridge is built, the names of the seniors will be engraved on the stone tablets so that thousands of years later, people all over the world will still remember what the seniors have done for the bridge."
Hong Zesou twisted his beard and smiled: "That's not necessary, just do your best. As for whether people in the world will remember it or not, that's up to him." After a few polite words, he added: "But if Zhiran really wants to erect a monument, I suggest asking Yan I wonder if it¡¯s okay for Mr. Ge to draft the inscription?¡±
"Haha, it's just like the old man meant."
Zhao Ran accompanied Hong Zesou to have a drink, while Sun Biyun took people around to check the condition of the bridge piers and the degree of damage in the water. After the inspection, he reported the good news to Zhao Ran: "Stable as Mount Tai!"
There was a sudden roar of joy on the high embankment.
Zhao Ran announced that from the beginning of August, the Yingtian Yangtze River Bridge will officially start construction!
The reason why we have to wait another two months is to wait for the completion of the Jinchuan River cable-stayed bridge to verify and test the tension of the cable-stayed cables; and to allow time to reserve massive supplies.
Zhao Ran urged Yang Cunxin to ask Taixuan Guan to speed up the refining of refined steel again. The amount of steel used to build the Yingtian Yangtze River Bridge is different from that of the Jinchuan River cable-stayed bridge, dozens of times!
Yang Cuxin immediately said that the three iron-making alchemy furnaces refined by Duanmu Changzhen have beenCompleted, she had already gone to Gezao Mountain to receive it on her way to Yingtian. With these three blast furnaces, Taixuan Hall could start refining special effect steel and ordinary steel at the same time, ensuring that it would not delay the construction of the bridge.
Having witnessed the construction of the Jinchuan River cable-stayed bridge and the testing of the bridge piers, Yang Cuxin was already excited to be able to participate in such a great project.
¡°If growing up and making money were her original intentions, then from today on, she has added another wish: all for the bridge!
Entering June, Zhao Ran is waiting for feedback from all parties, including the progress of refining bridge piers in Wudang Mountain, the completion progress of refined steel refining in Taixuan Hall, and the progress of green bricks and gravel from official kilns and quarries in Yingtianfu. The amount of storage, the lessons for the third training class of architectural monks, the number of craftsmen summoned by the Ministry of Industry from all provinces in the world, and the payment and income accounts of money, etc.
He didn¡¯t even have time to attend the signing ceremony for the first batch of small-denomination banknotes totaling 50,000 taels that Four Seasons Bank purchased from Baochao Department. He was too busy.
But there was an official document sent by Yingtian Mansion that forced him to find a way to solve it.
This is an official document transferred from Maoshan, signed by the Civilized City Creation and Assessment Committee.
Last year, Zhao Ran launched an activity to create civilized cities in various counties of Yingtian Prefecture. Then, with the support of Dali Temple Shaoqing Zheng Bengong, he spread the activity to the entire southern Zhili. However, after it was spread, there was no follow-up because King Qi Treason.
By November last year, after the major restructuring of Shangsan Palace, this matter was handed over to Maoshan. Zhao Ran did not expect that Maoshan did not start from scratch, but accepted his assessment method in full, and even continued the activities to create a civilized city in Nanzhili that had been launched before King Qi's rebellion.
Maoshan spent two months quietly visiting all the counties in southern Zhili, and then suddenly released the assessment results.
The reason why Wang Zongyi forwarded the official document is because Shangyuan County and Jiangning County were ranked at the bottom and rated as unqualified!
