There actually...

Chapter 317 This is so embarrassing!

After Wang Yu initially investigated the situation in Xishan Commune, he was not optimistic.

There is drought and water shortage everywhere now. Apart from digging deep wells to extract groundwater, he has not thought of any good solution.

Make bricks without straw.

Without water, nothing can be done.

but.

When Wang Yufei arrived at a seldom-visited mountain a few miles north of Liujiazhuang to investigate the drought situation of the Xiaoqing River that flowed through the area.

He suddenly discovered a stream with abundant water, which was flowing out of the deep mountains in the west and into the Xiaoqing River, which had dried up a lot.

Although the amount of water in the stream is of no help in alleviating the water shortage in the entire Xishan Commune.

But it made Wang Yu no longer limit his gaze to the land outside the mountain.

Instead, he wanted to go into the deep mountains in the west to see what the situation was like there.

I originally thought that many streams in the mountains near Liujiazhuang had dried up due to drought. The situation outside the mountains was not much better due to drought.

But this stream with abundant water changed some of his preconceived impressions.

So, Wang Yu directly took the small stream that flowed into Xiaoqing River as the source and headed towards the deep mountains in the west to investigate the situation.

The spiritual consciousness followed the stream upstream and scanned the scene within a dozen miles around.

After flying for more than 30 kilometers into the deep mountains to the west, we found that this place was already deep in the mountains and old forests. Basically no one could pass through the forests to reach the place where the beasts roamed.

Wang Yu found a small lake of over 100 acres in a valley between mountains, with many traces of wild animals around it.

The lake is not large, but its deepest point is more than ten meters.

The most important thing is that water continues to emerge from the ground of the lake, so even in years of severe drought, the water level in the lake does not drop much.

The lake water continued to overflow, forming a large stream, which meandered out of the mountains and finally flowed into the Xiaoqing River.

A few miles downstream of the Xiaoqing River is the newly built reservoir in Zhoujiazhuang, Zhou Yuanji’s hometown.

Xiaoqing River is diverted here to store water.

However, the drought has caused the Xiaoqing River to have a dry season, so naturally there is not much water in the newly built reservoir in Zhoujiazhuang, which is only a few meters deep.

After confirming that the spring under this small lake has been continuously gushing out abundant groundwater.

Wang Yu used the earth escape technique to go underground to investigate the water source of the lake and springs covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres.

As he went down along the underground crack where the spring gushed out.

"Wow!"

After escaping underground for more than ten kilometers, Wang Yu's spiritual sense suddenly became clear and he discovered that there was a huge underground lake underneath.

There are also several underground rivers with considerable water volume constantly flowing into it.

The force exerted on the underground lake caused the water to rise through some cracks.

This is also the reason why the small lake of one hundred acres on the ground was born.

Wang Yu carefully explored this underground lake and found that there were quite a few living creatures in it!

This is a mysterious underground world.

Unfortunately, after checking, he didn't find anything good.

It seems that this world is indeed in the Dharma Ending Age!

However, his efforts were not in vain, as the amount of water in this huge and narrow underground lake that he discovered, which was 15 kilometers long, 7 kilometers wide, and 18 kilometers high, was enough to supply water to millions of people in the entire 49-city. It didn't matter if he wasted it!

"Now I can finally report to my fourth uncle!"

With this huge underground lake, my fourth uncle can lead people to dig deep wells in various parts of the commune. Even if it cannot solve the water supply problem of the thirteen brigades of the commune, it can solve more than half of it.

At this time, the groundwater level in the plain where the Sijiu City was located was not very low, and it was even higher in the mountainous areas.

This drought is just a drought on the ground. It has an impact on the underground water veins, but not much.

Therefore, after Wang Yu explored the conditions of the surrounding underground rivers, he found that opening a hole above the underground lake would not affect the operation of the underground water network.

Therefore, Wang Yu directly expanded the crack in the rock layer that was more than ten kilometers thick under the lake of a hundred acres on the ground by dozens of times, but failed to break through to the ground in one go.

Because he needs to put on a show, otherwise it would be difficult to cover up so much water that came out inexplicably.

He opened up the underground passage to a depth of more than ten meters below the Hundred Mu Lake, and did not disturb the rock layer above. He also imposed restrictions to consolidate the solidity of the rock layer of more than ten meters.

Otherwise, the strong water pressure underground would definitely break through the rock layer that is more than ten meters thick.

Didn’t you see that after he opened up the passage below, the spring under the small lake was no longer gushing out, it was called gushing out!

Fortunately, the underground spring in the small lake is more than ten meters deep, and Wang Yu deliberately suppressed it, so it was not too conspicuous.

After doing all this, Wang Yu immediately returned to the town where the commune was located.

He told his uncle that he had discovered a water vein in the mountains and that he needed some high explosives and some waterproof materials. He planned to blast open the water vein in the deep mountains, so that a large amount of groundwater would gush out.

His fourth uncle naturally trusted Wang Yu. Since he came back to make this suggestion, he must be confident that it could be realized, so he directly agreed with his opinion.

In addition, he is now the head of Xishan Commune, and his power has greatly increased.

Ignoring other people's objections, he decided to take out hundreds of kilograms of explosives used to blast mountains and open reservoirs and let Wang Yu use them.

He personally mobilized hundreds of militiamen from the commune and called on several cousins ​​who were good at martial arts. He and his second uncle Wang Zhong led them, and together with Wang Yu, they carried the explosives to a small lake of 100 meters in diameter more than 30 kilometers away in the mountains.

Wang Yu personally buried the explosive packages wrapped in waterproof material into the water below the spring.

After he surfaced, he extended a more than ten-meter-long hollow water pipe with a prepared fuse inside to the water surface. He then took a hundred-meter-long wire and pulled it to the shore, tied it to a big tree, and wrapped the fuse around the wire.

The fuse wrapped on the wire is connected to the fuse inside the water pipe.

After doing all this, Wang Yu swam back to the shore.

The energy in his body shook, and the water droplets on his body were shaken off.

"Uncle, the explosives and fuses are ready. You can light them."

Fourth uncle Wang Guo, who had been waiting anxiously for a long time, was overjoyed when he heard the words. He waved his hand and shouted to the hundreds of people around him.

"Everyone, retreat to the forest and hide. Be careful not to get bitten by snakes or insects. Also be careful of wild animals."

Wow!

Everyone obeyed the order and retreated dozens of meters away, leaving only Wang Guo and Wang Yu.

puff!

The Kingdom lit a match and set the fuse alight.

Stab la la!

The fuse burned quickly along the wire toward the water pipe.

A few dozen seconds later...

"boom!"

Wang Yu used waterproof materials to bury explosives in the underground gap, which was detonated. At the same time, Wang Yu, who had been prepared, also secretly cast a spell to simultaneously remove the restrictions that had been set before.

In an instant, with a huge explosion, the underground spring was blown open and a huge amount of groundwater gushed out.

The water level of the small lake, which was hundreds of acres in size, rose rapidly and flooded the surrounding areas.

"Get back quickly." Wang Yu watched the lake expand rapidly and shouted to everyone.

Wang Yu and his team retreated hundreds of meters before the small lake stopped expanding.

The original stream suddenly swelled into a river several meters wide.

Looking at the water flowing continuously along the creek out of the mountain, everyone's face was filled with joy. With the water, they could quickly replant some drought-resistant crops.

Where there is food there is hope.

Therefore, everyone's faces are filled with anticipation for a good harvest in the coming year.

……

On the way out of the mountain, Wang Yu and his men hunted three roe deer, seven rabbits, six pheasants and other prey.

In particular, the commune secretary Wang Guo said that the prey would be distributed to everyone.

Now everyone is short of oil and water, and seeing so many wild animals, they can't help but look happy.

"Uncle, I'll leave the rest to you. Organize more people to dig deep wells. I can't say about other places, but it should be no problem to manage this one acre and three mu of land in Xishan Commune."

Wang Yuze whispered some advice to his uncle.

"Okay, with this small river that constantly supplies water, I can't manage other places for the time being, but the land of Xishan Commune will finally be stable. I have asked people to determine the number and location of deep wells. In addition, there are several brigades in the commune that are far away from the reservoir and have not dug canals. I plan to gather people to dig through the canals of all brigades in the commune and replant some drought-resistant crops, such as sweet potatoes with high yields. It should be no problem to survive until next year."

After listening to his eldest nephew's proposal, Wang Guo also expressed some of his own ideas, and his second uncle and others on the side also interrupted and added to the comments from time to time.

It took more than three hours for a group of hundreds of people to walk out of the mountains. It was already past four in the afternoon and the sun was setting.

Instead of rushing back to the town, they came to the Zhoujiazhuang Reservoir.

At this time, the river water flowing out of the small lake flows into the Xiaoqing River and finally into the reservoir.

The water level in Zhoujiazhuang Reservoir, which was originally only three meters deep, is slowly rising.

The continuously inflowing river water is constantly replenishing the reservoir of several thousand acres.

At the current rate of water injection, the reservoir will be filled in about a day.

"Uncle, when the water level of the reservoir reaches the warning line, you should open the small gate first and notify the several brigades in charge of the canal to quickly replant crops. Don't worry about water-intensive crops like wheat and cotton. Plant sweet potatoes as the main crop first, and other crops as supplementary crops. Also..."

"Okay, I know what's going on. I also want to..."

After listening to his nephew's words, Wang Guo nodded and expressed his own thoughts.

After Wang Yu understood the inner thoughts of his fourth uncle, he said no more.

He can only play a supporting role, and the rest depends on Fourth Uncle himself.

Especially what he mentioned about opening the small gate first.

At this time of year, I would rather die than let my friends die. I have to take care of my own little piece of land first before I can help other places.

The Zhoujiazhuang Reservoir was originally built not only for some brigades around Xishan Commune.

Instead, it targets all counties and communes in the lower reaches of Xiaoqing River.

Moreover, Zhoujiazhuang Reservoir is just one of the reservoirs located upstream in the entire Xiaoqing River Basin.

In fact, there are still many reservoir projects that have been completed or are under construction downstream.

Nothing else to say.

As long as the water depth in the reservoir rises to about 30 meters, the gates can be opened to release water to replenish the Xiaoqing River downstream.

However, the sentence is still the same.

Wang Guo had to solve the water supply problem in Xishan Commune first before he could open the reservoir gates and release water into the lower reaches of Xiaoqing River.

What we are trying to do is to create a time difference, which can delay it by at least three to five days.

During this period, the small sluice gate of the reservoir will remain open to fill the previously built canals, which will flow continuously to other brigades of Xishan Commune.

After the small sluice can benefit most of the brigades in Xishan Commune.

The large sluice gate can be opened to inject water into the Xiaoqing River downstream, benefiting half of the nine communes in Xishan County.

By the time.

Just finding the water source would make Fourth Uncle famous and consolidate the current status of Xishan Commune.

After doing all this, Wang Yu left and said goodbye to his fourth uncle, second uncle and others.

After Wang Guo and others failed to persuade him to stay, they gave Wang Yu a rabbit and a chicken. Others had no objection, after all, most of the prey were hunted by Wang Yu.

What's more, Datou is still here in the commune.

Wang Yu couldn't refuse, so he picked up the rabbit and pretended to walk into the city.

In fact, after walking halfway, Wang Yu quietly put the bicycle and other items into the space.
