Chapter Twenty-Ninth Ulterior Motives

"Looking at the weather, it won't rain again." Zhu Minglang said to himself.

The mountain forest has its own way of water storage, dense shrubs, thick soil, and leaves that are exposed to water when the sun is steaming, but it is a city in the valley, but it is so dry that even the ground is a little cracked.

It's not that people have no water to drink at all, but that the fields and livestock lack a lot of water. Winter is coming soon, and people need to stock up on some food.

Xiaobai is really lazy, it obviously has wings, and it has just woken up from a long sleep, but it doesn't want to fly in this wonderful mountain forest, just resting on the shoulders of Zhu Minglang...

It can be placed on people, and it is determined not to step down and take a step.

Fortunately, the little guy is also light, and it is also virtuous to have big black teeth. Zhu Minglang feels that he should change his career as an armor craftsman, and forget about the profession of a dragon priest.

"There are cliffs in the valley in front of you, so it's not suitable for walking. You can find the way." Zhu Minglang said to Bai Qi.

Bai Qi looked reluctant to leave this comfortable vehicle, and put his little head on Zhu Minglang's side face, acting coquettishly.

"You're too lazy." Zhu Minglang couldn't help laughing.

Forget it, go check it out yourself.

Zhu Minglang bypassed the stream road and found that the terrain in the mountains ahead rose in vain, and there were several places that were so steep that there was no place to climb...

"Strange, why are there road marks here?"

When Zhu Minglang went around the steep place, he found that the vines and thorns in the mountain forest had been cut open, and there was a clear path under his feet, just like the mountain road that the woodcutter used to grow into the mountain.

With a little doubt, Zhu Minglang walked along this road to a higher place, and found the location of Xihe according to memory...

But the sight in front of him made Zhu Minglang stunned.

Shandi!

There is a mountain embankment here, which completely cuts off the stream at that steep point.

Zulong city-state water conservancy is not very backward, it is reasonable to say that it is normal for a water embankment to appear in such a place.

The embankment stores water when there is abundant rain, and releases water when it is dry, which is normal for farmland water conservancy.

But behind this embankment, the water is as rich as a mountain lake, and there is no sign of drying up at all, and although there are not many streams in the high places, they are still pouring into the valley water embankment!

With the water storage capacity of this water dike, it can completely irrigate the dry fields of Ronggu City, and it can also feed livestock, as long as the stone gate of the dike is opened! !

"What's going on??" Zhu Minglang was a little at a loss.

The young city owner clearly stated that there is no water in Ronggu City, and irrigation and feeding have become a huge problem, but this mountain embankment has enough water here. Is this deliberately causing the common people to face a crisis!

Zhu Minglang still had a good impression of the young city lord. He was neither humble nor arrogant when facing the Dragon Master, and he was orderly when he stated things. He also thought of some of the hazards caused by the rain at night...

However, seeing this full reservoir, seeing the tightly locked gate, and seeing the pitiful little water spring flowing into the Shantian grassland, Zhu Minglang is greatly disgusted and disappointed by the young city owner!

The water was overflowing, but it didn't let it go.

The suffering of the people is ignored.

ulterior motives ah!

...

Returning along the way, Zhu Minglang felt a little heavy.

Although he has no ambitions, he cannot see such ugly bureaucratic behavior. It is better to inform Teacher Duan Lan about this matter as soon as possible.

In this comparison, Mr. Duan Lan is the real kind-hearted person. I don't mind flying thousands of miles to Ronggu City in the east, just for a rain that does not benefit him, and also erects for the students of the Long Murong Master. A precious concept of "those who have the ability should benefit all beings who work hard".

...

At noon, streaks of strong light are like whiplashes on all things, the fruit forests are decadent, and the fields are dry and cracked. Obviously, this autumn brings plenty of heat to people, but it makes people even more chilling.

The temperature difference between day and night is huge.

When Zhu Minglang returned to Ronggu City, he was already sweating a little. He walked along the street to the mansion, and he looked a little flustered when he saw that there were traders on the road hurriedly packing up.

When he arrived at the mansion, Zhu Minglang didn't see the teachers and classmates. He thought that they had already reached the rooftop of the sacrifice, so he asked the way of the servants in the mansion and walked towards the roof of the sacrifice.

As soon as he went out, a person came towards him. He saw Zhu Minglang as if he had been looking for it, and his expression was a little strange.

"But Brother Zhu?" The man bowed deeply.

Zhu Minglang looked at him, but said nothing.

This person is the young city owner, Zheng Yu.

Zheng Yu stood in front of Zhu Minglang and maintained a bowing attitude, which made Zhu Minglang think of something for a while, and his expression became vigilant, and he planned to let Bai Qi take action at any time.

"I heard that Brother Zhu has gone to the upper reaches of the valley, may I ask Brother Zhu to see the water dike?" Zheng Yu then asked.

"I see." Zhu Minglang was ready.

"But you want to tell Master Duan Lan and Master Ke Bei?" Zheng Yu asked again, his tone still unchanged.

"What do you have to say." Zhu Minglang was ready to start.

"Brother Zhu, don't get me wrong, Zheng Yu is just a weak scholar, and he doesn't understand the way of shepherding dragons, and he doesn't have any bad thoughts about Brother Zhu, but before Brother Zhu wants to tell the two seniors, can he listen to him first? In the next few sentences, if Brother Zhu still wants to inform the public about my Zheng Yu's scandal and tell the teacher, I will never stop him, and I will be punished willingly." Zheng Yu got up, with a sincere expression on his face.

Zhu Minglang glanced at the sky.

It was cloudless just now, but at this moment, there is already a cloud cover, and I don't know if the sky changes again, or Teacher Duan Lan's Canglong Mysterious Art is already being displayed.

Not so hot, but starting to get a little dull.

"The city owner, please speak." Zhu Minglang was not in a hurry, and everyone said this.

"Brother Zhu, do you know Wutu, do you know that soldiers and soldiers are fighting with the Wutu mob fifty miles away?" Zheng Yu said.

"I know." Zhu Minglang nodded.

Turning soil, there are good memories of their own... good memories of planting mulberry trees and raising silkworms.

"I think Brother Zhu is also a wise man, what does Brother Zhu think of this war?" Zheng Yu asked.

"I only listen to you." Zhu Minglang said lightly, but he still had another opinion on Zheng Yu in his heart.

This person's behavior is disgusting and disgusting, his eyes are fine, and he is very different from a small merchant in Qiaotou.
