Two Worlds: I Became an Immortal

Chapter 4 Water Finder

Seeing Song Yunyuan agree, Dai Mingxuan's face was full of joy and he hurriedly led the way.

The yamen runners on the side also stood by to protect him from time to time.

Although the immortals do not need such support from them, they still need to have the right attitude.

The people on both sides of the street were still kneeling on the ground at this time, watching Song Yunyuan leave.

Song Yunyuan had not left yet, so they did not dare to get up easily, fearing that if they got up too early, the immortal would think they were disrespectful to him.

However, after Song Yunyuan walked past them and left, whispers began to be heard.

"Hey, why do immortals have their feet on the ground? Shouldn't immortals be flying in the clouds? I saw that there was mud on the immortal's shoes just now."

"What's wrong with the immortal's shoes being stained with mud? Haven't you heard that when immortals come down to earth, they do so out of compassion for the common people? If that's the case, how can they not get stained with worldly things?"

"That's right. You are afraid that the Immortal will punish you for criticizing him like this!"

At this moment, the people stood up one after another, and there was a lot of whispering.

Some people had shining eyes, thinking that the immortal had appeared again and that they might be saved. Others thought that they might be able to live a prosperous life in the future.

Song Yunyuan, on his side, followed Dai Mingxuan and walked towards the yamen.

Dai Mingxuan was also a little cautious at this moment. Looking at the thing in Song Yunyuan's hand that was more transparent and brighter than jade, he knew that it was a magic weapon of the immortals.

I was somewhat worried that if I said something wrong and made the immortal unhappy and killed me, that would be too unfair.

After a while, the two came to the side hall of the yamen.

Song Yunyuan sat in the main seat, while Dai Mingxuan sat at the table to the right, feeling quite uneasy.

After a maid came forward cautiously and served tea, Dai Mingxuan finally thought about speaking to break the deadlock.

"Immortal, why have you come to this lower world this time? I wonder why you are here?"

Song Yunyuan didn't even look at the tea beside him. Hearing this, he paused for a moment and replied, "Coming to this world is considered traveling."

Traveling?
Dai Mingxuan felt a little relieved after hearing that. He gritted his teeth and thought for a while, then he knelt down in front of Song Yunyuan with a plop.

"I know that the immortal is not tainted by the cause and effect of the mortal world, but I am the local official. The people here are displaced and hungry. These days, I have seen all the trees around me being eaten up. There is no one around. I only ask the immortal to use his magical powers to help Dongyang County survive this disaster!"

The people here really like to kneel down at every turn.

Song Yunyuan felt a slight headache and waved his hand, "Get up and tell me about the situation in Dongyang County."

"Yes."

Dai Mingxuan stood up upon hearing this, and then told Song Yunyuan the general situation of Dongyang County.

Song Yunyuan sat in the main seat. After listening to what Dai Mingxuan said about the situation in Dongyang County, his brows immediately frowned.

This situation was worse than he had imagined.

Continuous droughts caused a stream in Dongyang County to dry up. The local people had tried to dig wells, but they were unable to find water.

The water in Dongyang County is now carried back bit by bit from dozens of miles away.

The original fields had cracked due to lack of water and crops could no longer be grown on them.

The tea that was being brewed for Song Yunyuan right now was all squeezed out by the county.

When Song Yunyuan heard this, he couldn't help but look at the tea beside him.

"When I came here a few days ago, I was inspecting the area and saw a mother asking her son to abandon her so as not to bring trouble to her son. I couldn't help but sigh when I saw this!"

At last, Dai Mingxuan sighed again, with a hint of sadness and helplessness in his voice.

Song Yunyuan sat on the chair, silent for a long time.

He probably knew the situation here, but it was really difficult to help the people of the whole county. He was just an ordinary person on Earth, and after being fired, he had less than 20,000 yuan left.

What can you do with less than 20,000 yuan? Even if you buy rice at one yuan per catty, you can only buy less than 20,000 catties. There are 2,000 refugees here.

If divided equally, each person would have less than 20 kilograms of food.

But Song Yunyuan couldn't get over the thought of just watching the people here starve to death.

Moreover, if I can solidify my reputation as an immortal, it will be more convenient for me to act in the future, and my current investment will also pay off.

Thinking of this, Song Yunyuan immediately decided to take action.

"I have accepted this matter."

Song Yunyuan took a deep breath and then answered.

Hearing Song Yunyuan's words, Dai Mingxuan was stunned at first and then overjoyed, "Thank you, Immortal! Thank you, Immortal!"

As Dai Mingxuan spoke, he kowtowed repeatedly to Song Yunyuan.

Seeing this, Song Yunyuan did not try to stop him. Since he had to accept this identity, he had to adapt to the changes that came with it.

"Prepare a house that is spacious enough."

"I will have someone prepare it right away!"

Upon hearing this, Dai Mingxuan quickly responded and then immediately asked someone to make arrangements.

Soon, the servant came to answer and said that the room was ready.

Seeing this, Song Yunyuan nodded slightly and let the other party lead the way.

The group left the county government office and came to a small courtyard not far away.

There is a well in the yard, but the water in the well has long been dried up. The main house has been cleaned and is relatively clean.

After taking a look, Song Yunyuan nodded, quite satisfied with this place.

"You go back first, I'll come back to find you when everything is ready."

Song Yunyuan ordered them to leave, and he had to go back to Earth to prepare some things first.

Hearing what Song Yunyuan said, Dai Mingxuan immediately nodded, retreated respectfully and closed the door of the yard.

Song Yunyuan closed the door and returned to Earth with the explosion-proof shield.

Song Yunyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw himself returning to the rental house.

He threw the explosion-proof shield aside, then sat in a chair and began to think.

"At present, the basic situation of that world has been determined. It is almost the same as that of ancient times. In this case, can the glass beads be sold at a good price?"

Song Yunyuan thought in his heart.

If the glass beads could be sold for a good price, then the less than 20,000 yuan he had would be enough to deal with this situation.

If you sell a few more glass beads, you can definitely exchange them for a large amount of food.

The problem of disaster victims in Dongyang County can be solved.

However, this approach is only a temporary solution and does not address the root cause. We must then consider how to enable these people to continue farming and supporting themselves.

"Without water, artificial rainfall would require favorable weather conditions, not to mention artificial rainfall. I don't have the ability to do it right now."

"So, buy a water finder?"
