As Kong Ming appeared in the fertile fields, the old farmer smoking the dry cigarette naturally saw him, but the old farmer did not pay attention to Kong Ming. Instead, he continued to frown and smoke the dry cigarette, looking very distressed.
If nothing else goes wrong, this old farmer should be the gatekeeper of this level. After all, although he looks sad, the aura exuding from his body is that of a genuine first-level Yuan Emperor!
Judging from the clothing of this old farmer, he is somewhat similar to the Shennongzi whom Kong Ming once met, but the appearance and temperament of the two are completely different. It is difficult to judge at the moment what kind of relationship between him and Shennongzi is. It doesn't matter.
Kong Ming naturally had no disrespect for this old farmer, so he stepped forward and bowed his hands and said: "Senior, please come! I have made it all the way here and saw the sorrow on my senior's face. Is there anything that I can do for you?"
The old farmer looked up at Kong Ming and sighed: "Help? Are you the Sea Dragon King? Do you still have the magical power to move clouds and spread water? There are thousands of hectares of fertile land here, and early seedlings have been sown, but unfortunately the water supply is insufficient. Seeing that It’s such a pity that everything will be wasted!”
Having said this, the old farmer took a few puffs of dry tobacco. As the smoke blew out, his whole face looked vaguely visible, and the wrinkles on his face were more like ravines like tree bark!
Kong Ming looked around carefully and saw thousands of hectares of fertile fields evenly distributed on a plain. If it weren't for the lack of water, this place would definitely be regarded as a geomantic treasure! However, since the old farmer in front of us can sow thousands of hectares of fertile land by himself, why is he helpless about water sources
Obviously, this level is used to test the challengers. As long as the water source problem can be solved, you can probably pass this level, right
At that moment, Kong Ming nodded to the old farmer and said: "Irrigating thousands of hectares of fertile land is indeed not an easy task. I wonder if there is any water source nearby? Maybe the juniors really have a way to help the seniors!"
The old farmer sighed again and said: "There was originally a water source here. You see, at the end of the left side, there was originally a mountain peak. There was a clear spring on the mountain that ran all year round. We only need to introduce the mountain spring water into the canal beside the field. There is no need to worry about the water source. However, the space here collapsed a few days ago, and the mountain on the left sank, turning into a valley. Although the clear spring was not destroyed, can the water flow back up? Without the ability to divert clear spring water to irrigate the farmland, the vast hectares of fertile farmland here will eventually be abandoned. Alas, is it possible that the lifelong fame of our God Gengzi will be ruined here?"
After hearing the old farmer who called himself Shen Gengzi explain the difficulties he encountered, Kong Ming began to worry about it and felt that it was not difficult to solve the problem. At that moment, Kong Ming said to Shen Gengzi: "Senior, it is not impossible to reverse the flow of the spring water. I wonder if senior can move and take a look at the surrounding environment with the junior?"
Shen Gengzi said softly, "Hey", and then nodded towards Kong Ming and said, "We might as well go and have a look together. Maybe you young man is really capable of solving problems, and that will be a blessing for these vast hectares of fertile land."
So Kong Ming and Shen Gengzi walked to the depression on the left side of the mountain and saw a large pit tens of meters deep. This deep pit occupies an extremely large area, with a square radius no less than ten thousand hectares of fertile land, but it doesn't look like it was formed by the sinking of a mountain peak.
Of course, at this time, Kong Ming would not dwell on these trivial matters with Shen Gengzi. Instead, he looked at the clear spring in the middle of the pit.
The water surface of the clear spring looks extremely vast, comparable to an ordinary large lake. The water level is about thirty meters above the pit. It is not easy to get water up. However, when Kong Ming was working in Longzhong, he invented the waterwheel because of the water source problem of farming terraces in the mountains. How could it not solve the problem of diverting water from low places to high places
It is very simple to solve the problem of water shortage. Just build one or several large water wheels, pump up the spring water and pour it into the canals. There is no need to worry about the lack of water for irrigation of thousands of hectares of fertile land.
In the deep pit, there is a dense forest next to the clear spring. There are many large trees tens of meters high in the forest, which can be used as materials for making large waterwheels. So Kong Ming smiled slightly and said to Shen Gengzi: "Senior. , it is not impossible to divert water to a height of tens of meters, at least it does not require the ability of the Sea Dragon King to move clouds and spread water!"
As Kong Ming spoke, he jumped down into the pit and went straight to the dense forest, where he easily felled the big trees.
The brilliant golden energy condensed into the shape of a lightsaber in Kong Ming's hands, and then he cut the big tree into various shapes as easily as peeling tofu. After a while, Kong Ming gathered enough materials and began to assemble a large waterwheel by the water.
In less than half an hour, a huge waterwheel more than fifty meters high was erected next to the clear spring. Then as the spring water flows, it hits the fan blades of the waterwheel. The large waterwheel immediately rotates. When the fan blades that have sunk into the water rise, the water tank on each fan blade is filled with clean water. When the fan blades are When the leaves rise to the top and fall, all the clear water in the sink is poured into the water collection port, and then flows directly along the pipe into the canal that irrigates thousands of hectares of fertile fields!
In this way, the large waterwheel can operate on its own without any human assistance, continuously delivering spring water into the canal. In this way, the so-called water shortage problem of fertile land will naturally be solved.
Of course, the water source needed for thousands of hectares of fertile land cannot be solved by just one large waterwheel. But since this large waterwheel can really play a role, as long as we make a few more of the same, I'm afraid it won't be enough. The need for vast hectares of fertile land
Seeing that the waterwheel could automatically pump up the spring water, Shen Gengzi couldn't believe his eyes and murmured to himself: "Is it that simple? Is it really that simple?? With such magical irrigation tools, Countless wastelands lacking water sources can be turned into fertile farmland! This is an epoch-making weapon!!!"
Having said this, the sadness on Shen Gengzi's face disappeared. Instead, he bowed politely to Kong Ming and said: "Little brother, you can create such a magical irrigation tool. No one in the world relies on farming to make a living." All poor people must thank you for your great kindness! I am even more happy to surrender, so naturally you have passed this level!"
