Volume 9 Flying Immortals Chapter 8 Jian Haitian

In a few years, around the age of 50, the climate of the entire Kyushu border will undergo a very large-scale change. Specifically, it is about a general drop in temperature, accompanied by a great drought that almost spreads throughout Kyushu.

This is not a weather forecast that is not a weather forecast more than ten years in advance, but the result of divination.

The first to come to this conclusion was Ning Feng, the Qintianjian of the Great Chu State, who was loyal to state affairs, and he had to carry out a large-scale occupation every month, and in a certain occupation, he accidentally found that there seemed to be signs of drought in the future, so he made a special calculation on this matter and came to an astonishing conclusion.

When he got this conclusion, Ning Feng did not make a noise, but found his uncle Xiao Buyi and asked Xiao Buyi to verify it.

Xiao Bu's wardrobe did the math and got a more detailed result, it is indeed about to come with a great drought. He didn't know what to do, so he found his senior brother Su Lin again. But Su Lin spent nearly a hundred years of longevity in one breath to calculate the results, which were similar to what he calculated.

Then the news was secretly spread to all major sects, including the Qingyang faction, at least ten Huandan patriarchs who were good at divination held various rituals and used various magic weapons to try to improve the accuracy of divination, or to try to draw different conclusions.

Unfortunately, all divination, as long as there are no mistakes, the final conclusion is not much different, at most there are discrepancies in some details that have nothing to do with the overall situation.

"Presumably this is the so-called 'Heaven and Earth Fortune'." On the flying sword biography sent by the master, the real person in charge of the sect said worriedly, "The movement of heaven and earth is unstoppable, this is like the replacement of spring, summer, autumn and winter, even if you understand the truth, you can't change it." ”

"Catastrophes like this often come only once in a thousand years. Being in the midst of a disaster is both a misfortune and an opportunity. For mortals, danger often makes the outstanding stand out; For my generation of monks, the process of disaster relief is the process of cultivating the mind, for ascension. The practice of the mind is very beneficial. ”

"Disciples, I am very much in favor of you going to disaster relief, but you have to do it yourself! When helping mortals, remember to do what you can, don't be carried away by compassion and compassion, keep your useful body, and only then can you help more people in the future!"

Wu Xie understood what he meant: according to the Tibetan notes, every time a great calamity came, there were quite a few. The decent monks of the world died for the sake of disaster relief. The death of these people is naturally radiant and admired by future generations, but the fortune of heaven and earth will not stop because of the sacrifice of one or two people, even if it moves the heavens and the earth, it is only a temporary thing, and it is impossible to reverse the fortune of heaven and earth for a long time.

Rather than the extreme practice of devoting oneself to death, appropriate reservations can not only protect oneself but also protect others in the future. In the long run, this is the best option.

Wu Xie respects those who sacrifice their lives for the common people, but in contrast, he prefers to keep himself for the future.

Since the movement of heaven and earth cannot be stopped, then it is good to do your best. If you can save one, you will save one; If you can save a place, you will save a place. As long as you do your best, you can leave no regrets, and there is no need to force yourself to death.

He is an immortal, not a savior, not a savior, not to mention, throughout the ages, how can anyone save the whole world?

Even if there is no coming great drought, the unsatisfactory in the world is everywhere, if you want to solve all these unsatisfactory problems, you can probably only learn from the Great Light Divine Sect back then, cultivate 20,000 and one Dharma Protector Divine Generals, and create the ideal world, right?

But that's a pipe dream!

So over the years, he has been preparing for disaster prevention and mitigation, on the one hand, to strengthen reserves, and on the other hand, to find some ways to make up for it.

Building water conservancy is a good way, but if the drought is too violent, maybe even the Heihe River will dry up one by one, this kind of thing really happened in history!

Although the dragons have the ability to travel through the clouds and spread the rain, the water must be taken from elsewhere after all. There is water in the four seas, but to continuously draw water from the East China Sea to irrigate Kyushu requires an unimaginable supreme supernatural power, which is impossible for all the masters of the world combined.

In the far north, there are large ice fields, and icebergs are connected one after another. In the past, during the great drought, there were once decent masters who moved the iceberg to the Central Plains and turned ice into water to nourish the party. But this also requires great magical powers and great mana, and the amount of water required during the great drought is very amazing, compared to the entire land of Kyushu, even if all the monks work together, it is still a drop in the bucket.

Wu Xie does not have the kind of supernatural power of "carrying Mount Tai and surpassing the North Sea", and he can't get water from the sea far, so his main measures focus on several aspects:

First, look for drought-resistant crops.

When the people live on food, the most terrible thing is that the agricultural harvest is out of harvest and there is a shortage of food. In order to deal with this problem, he asked the well-traveled brother Yan Gu to go to the north to find several kinds of plants that are very resistant to drought, and then try to transform them into something that can be eaten.

It's not easy, and the plants that survive the drought are not friendly at all, and are often not only full of spikes, but also contain toxins of their own, so they are not made to be eaten!

If it's just Wu Xie himself, maybe he can't do anything about them. But behind him there are also powerful Jindan masters and immortal demon gods with infinite power, as well as the Heavenly Book World Realm with the wonder of creation. Jasmine turned those plants hundreds of times in a miniature cycle of life and death, and finally came up with a variant with practical value.

This is a cactus-like thing, the root system is extremely developed, it can absorb dozens of feet of water underground, and its stems are section by section, picked and eaten raw, containing a lot of water.

Unfortunately, despite all their efforts, the taste of this thing is still slightly bitter, not half sweet. This made Du Ruo very dissatisfied and complained about God's stinginess.

After having this edible cactus, Wu Xie felt a little confident in his heart. Then he turned his gaze to the sea and began to wonder if he could get some resources out of it.

It is obviously unrealistic to want marine fishing to feed the people of a county. Moreover, there are too many powerful things in the sea of this world, and it is no matter how much fishing is close to the sea, and there is no difference between deep-sea fishing and death. So his gaze was not at the sea itself, but at the tidal flats by the sea.

Adjacent to the East China Sea, there are no sandy beaches on the seaside, and most of them are mudflats covered with black mud soaked in salt. These tidal flats are very vast, but they basically do not produce much of value, and at best they can only provide some firewood and grass for the people.

According to Wu Jie's impression, there seems to be a practice of using salt-resistant plants to transform tidal flats on earth. Although he didn't have a suitable salt-resistant plant on hand, he could think of something else.

In the midst of Jasmine's complaints, the Heavenly Book World Realm was once again operated on a large scale. A small ocean and beach were created, and then all kinds of strange plants began to grow on the beach.

For several years in a row, he used the source power accumulated in the Heavenly Book World Realm without hesitation, and finally created a plant that had never appeared in the Kyushu World Realm.

It is a vine that grows rapidly on saline tidal flats, completely ignoring the terrible salts in the seawater, absorbing them and expelling them from the back of the leaves, without having a lot of salt in its own body, and entering the "edible" range.

It's a pity that the taste of this thing is really bad, and even Du Ruo kept shaking his head when he tried it, saying, "Fourth, if you want me to eat this again, we will break off our relationship" Thinking about it one by one, unless you are very hungry, you must not be able to feed people, you can only feed livestock.

And it also brings another by-product, which is salt.

The land of Kyushu has a method of drying salt, which was invented a long time ago by a monk who practiced by the sea. But the sea salt is always a little bitter, Wu Xie Zhilu said that this is because it is mixed with impurities, but he doesn't know how to get rid of these impurities, so he can only give up.

He invented this plant, which can also get salt after the leaves are plucked and dried. Although it is also a somewhat bitter salt, it contains some grassy aroma, and the taste is slightly better than that of traditional sea salt.

Of course, the yield of this salt is not very high, and it is simply not worth mentioning compared to the salt drying fields that dot the coast. But it can be regarded as an income, which is not without a small supplement to people's livelihood.

If he used spells, Wu Xie would indeed be able to produce a refined salt similar to the one on earth that was almost free of impurities, but he did not make this on a large scale, all of his inventions and researches, and he took the middle and lower routes, all for the benefit of ordinary people.

As for those rich dogs, natural disasters can't kill them, so Wu Xie doesn't bother to pay attention to them!

Except for Wu Jie, his teachers and the world's decency were not idle, and they all put down their cultivation one by one and were busy preventing disasters. Probably when he completed the special vegetation named "Sea Grass", an uncle with the Taoist name "Qingxiazi" invented the technique of offshore planting.

This technique is not much different from what Wu Xie had seen in his previous life, they are all about laying corrosion-resistant rope nets in the sea, and then planting kelp or something on the rope nets. It's just that that kind of rope net is not easy to make, so for the time being, it can only be presided over by the people of the Xianmen.

Like the cactus and sea grass invented by Wu Jie, this technique was spread as soon as possible. Immortals don't need money, and they don't study these things for their own benefit, just to help more people.

During the years of hard preparation, dozens of cultivators, including Wu Jie, put a lot of spirit on the seaside, and finally opened up tidal flats and sea fields that stretched for thousands of miles.

Sea pasture grass is planted on the seashore and kelp is planted in the sea, and it can also help the fishing industry by the way.

Although it took countless efforts and energy, flying from the sky and looking at the thousands of miles of sea fields, every decent immortal smiled.

"Being able to do this kind of business in my life makes me feel that my life is worth it......" An Ziqing, who has been working for a long time and has become more like an old farmer than a rich son, said with a smile.

Wu Xie also smiled: "Yes, if you can benefit Li Min, you are the real immortals!"
