In the global desert, I have a spring of spiritual water.

The rain lasted for about fifteen minutes before gradually stopping.

Although the time was short, it gave the people of Taipingzhuang hope for survival.

As people smelled the moisture spreading in the air, the anxiety and despair that had been building up in their hearts for so long were completely washed away by this "blessing".

It felt like thinking you'd reached the end of the road, only to look up and find a bright future ahead.

In particular, the young and handsome new lord promised that everyone would have two bowls of water every day from now on. Before the blessing came, the people did not quite believe it, but now they firmly believe it!

Just as Hu Changhe shouted, "May the manor lord protect us, and may heaven bestow blessings upon us!"

Inside the water room.

A waterman pulls a bucket of water up from the well by turning the crank on the well winder.

"There's water!"

"There's water now!"

Once the buckets were pulled to the wellhead, the watermen immediately shouted excitedly.

Looking at the full bucket of water, the Hu brothers and the other sailors all showed excitement.

While blessings from heaven are certainly a good thing and are considered an auspicious sign, they are also a blessing in disguise.

But the mere fifteen minutes of rain actually has a greater symbolic meaning. If water still cannot be drawn from the well, the people will still have no water to drink.

Now everyone's worries have been completely relieved!

Hu Changhe walked to the bucket, picked up a ladle, scooped up more than half a ladle of water and gulped it down. Then, wiping the water from the corner of his mouth, he exclaimed excitedly, "The quality of this water is much better than before!"

"The lord of the manor is truly a divine being!"

"I'll try it!"

Hu Changhai, curious, scooped up half a ladle of water. As the director of the Water Resources Department, he was even more sensitive to water quality. After taking a sip, his eyes lit up, and he exclaimed happily, "This water has almost no impurities; it can be considered a top-grade water source!"

Upon hearing the words "superior water source," the surrounding crowd cheered excitedly once again.

Water sources can be good or bad, and this has been true in every era.

In this era of great desertification, water sources were classified into five grades: "superior, upper-middle, lower-middle, and inferior".

High-quality water sources are extremely rare. The people in Taiping Village only knew that such a thing existed. It was said that if one lived in a place with high-quality water sources and drank the water there year-round, one's cultivation speed would be much faster than that of ordinary people.

Next are the superior water sources. Usually, there are only one or two such sources within a prefecture. Taking Shanghe Prefecture as an example, only Shanghe City and Sanjiang City have superior water sources. The other cities, counties, villages, and towns all have medium or inferior water sources.

The water source in Taipingzhuang was of inferior quality, which is why Taipingzhuang had the smallest population of all the villages and towns in Shanghe County.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that Taipingzhuang is located in a remote area, far from the big city.

Now, Taipingzhuang has transformed into the third place in Shanghe County with a superior water source!

As the saying goes, the water and soil of a place nurture its people. People who drink water of good quality can cultivate themselves faster, and crops can grow better.

The water source has been upgraded from inferior to superior quality, which is a huge benefit for everyone in Taipingzhuang!

"Alright, the people are waiting. Get someone to release the water!"

Chen Chuan didn't know how to classify water quality, but since it was water from a spiritual spring, its quality was naturally not bad, and he wasn't surprised at all that it was rated as top-grade.

If the water in a level one spiritual spring is already of superior quality, then once he upgrades the spiritual spring to level two, it might become excellent quality instead of superior!

"Director Hu, come with me to check on the other three dried-up wells."

Chen Chuan then spoke to Hu Changhe.

The first-level spiritual spring can have five clones. Chen Chuan's plan is to activate the other four dry wells as well, so that it will be more convenient for the people to use water and agricultural production in Taipingzhuang can be restored as soon as possible.

Water alone is not enough to feed the villagers; grain production must also keep up. On the way here, Chen Chuan noticed that the area outside Taiping Village was all rice fields.

Grain is the most drought-resistant crop, and in this era its drought-resistant property has evolved. It only needs to be watered when sowing, and then it doesn't need to be cared for afterward.

However, since the villagers themselves have no water to drink, most of the grain fields outside the village are abandoned. Therefore, once all four wells have resumed water supply, the farmers will have to resume farming, otherwise the village will face another food shortage in the second half of the year.

"Master, just call me Changhe, or you can call me Lao Hu if you don't mind."

Hu Changhe's face was full of smiles. He was eager to become Chen Chuan's confidant, but the title of Director Hu was too official and difficult to distinguish from his younger brother Hu Changhai.

"Okay, Lao Hu, have someone clean out the other three water rooms and prepare them for reuse."

Chen Chuan understood what Hu Changhe meant; if he didn't change how he addressed him, Hu Changhe probably wouldn't feel at ease.

"Reactivate?"

"Is it really possible??"

Hu Changhe stared at Chen Chuan in shock.

"Do as I say."

Chen Chuan was too lazy to explain and casually waved his hand.

"good!"

Hu Changhe didn't ask any more questions and quickly gave the orders. He was incredibly excited. If Chen Chuan really had the ability to make the other three wells that had been dry for a long time come back into use, then he must be a Life Source Master without a doubt.

Although he had never heard of a Life Source Master being able to "bring a dry well back to life," such a supernatural power could only be achieved by a god-like Life Source Master.

Anyway, he had never heard of water-based cultivators having this ability!

Luckily, I knelt down quickly!

The Lord of the Manor has accepted me. From now on, I, Hu Changhe, am a subordinate of a Destiny Source Master!

Hu Changhe secretly rejoiced, and his steps became much lighter.

Soon, Chen Chuan arrived at the water room near the West Gate, accompanied by Hu Changhe and the others.

"Master, this well was the first to dry up; it's been three years since then."

Once inside the water room, Hu Changhe began his introduction.

"Protect the gate!"

Without wasting words, Chen Chuan gave an order and sat down by the well, just like he had done at the North Gate water room.

Seeing this, Hu Changhe immediately surrounded Chen Chuan in the same way as before.

Geng Hu, Chen Chuan's bodyguard, also stood behind him with a serious expression.

Next, a scene similar to that at the North Gate water room played out again. Chen Chuan sat cross-legged on the ground and waved his hands in the air a few times, as if he were performing some kind of mysterious worship ritual.

The next moment, a long white water dragon shot into the sky once again...

Outside the North Gate Water Room.

People lined up in an endless queue. In the past, when they lined up to fetch water, their faces were expressionless and their eyes were rather dull. But now it was completely different. Everyone's face was filled with bright smiles, and their eyes were full of endless hope for the future.

The people who had already received the water were extremely excited. They had two full bowls of water and no longer had to worry about not having water to drink. Moreover, they found that the quality of the water was far better than before. It was crystal clear in the bowl, without any mud or impurities, and even tasted slightly sweet when licked.

Just as the people were immersed in the joy of having water to drink, a loud bang suddenly came from the west gate of the village. Curious, they looked over and saw a familiar scene playing out once again: a long water dragon shot straight into the sky, coiled up high in the air, and then exploded with a deafening roar...

Fukuzawa is here again!
