Chapter 327: Keep the rice warm by the fire!
"To be honest, a cold wave is just a puff of cold air, just like the puff of air that enters the house when we open the door in winter. As long as this puff of air passes, the temperature will rise in the future."

Sun Jianping wanted to explain to the old man why the cold current occurred and the flow pattern of the cold current, but it was obvious that the little old man didn't want to hear this. He just wanted to know whether he could keep the rice.

"When cold and warm air meet, fog will be produced. The heavy dew now means that cold air has invaded from the upper level, condensing the water vapor floating in the air into dewdrops and adhering to the surface of the plants..."

"Just tell me how to fix it and that's it!"

The old man's eyes were filled with stars when he heard this, what about cold air and warm air, what about upper and lower layers, I want my rice now!

Don’t want to study!

"Easy to handle!"

Sun Jianping kicked the pile of tattered firewood that was washed over by the water, "Open the gate later and release water into the rice fields. When the water is cold, it freezes and releases heat, which can warm the rice fields."

"But it's not enough to put in the water. We need to get some more firewood. Then uncle, you can ask a few people to cut down some dead trees later. When the cold wave subsides, we will light a fire..."

"Why are you lighting a fire to warm the rice?"

The old man was confused.

"You're right, it's just a fire for the rice!" Sun Jianping squatted down and picked up two pieces of wood. "If you don't give them a fire, I don't think they can make it through September!"

"This kid is really good at shaping things. Okay, I'll tell your Uncle Wang and the others to hitch a ride up the mountain!"

There were a lot of dead wood in the mountains. After a while, everyone chopped down a cart full and placed it upwind in the northwest direction according to Sun Jianping's instructions. In addition, he also had people cut down a lot of corn stalks and grass, and the pile was enough to cover a hill. high.

"What are you doing?" Wang Liansheng asked curiously as he wiped his sweat and watched Sun Jianping sawing the wood into sections and setting them up like stacks of logs.

"You guys will understand later in the evening!"

Sun Jianping smiled mysteriously, "Uncle, do me a favor and put up wood here, here, and here!"

Everyone responded and started working according to his instructions.

Forty acres of land was actually quite large. According to Sun Jianping's arrangement, a cart of wood was quickly used up. There was no choice but to rush the cart to get some more.

When it got dark, Sun Jianping's anti-cold current system was basically completed. More than 30 wooden shelves were erected along the west and north directions of the rice fields, filled with various fresh corn stalks and wet rice. The grass and pine trees were lit up with torches, illuminating the wilderness under the setting sun.

There are strips of yarn hanging from the black light used for pest control. At this time, the surrounding area is peaceful and quiet, and there is no wind.

Li Xiuzhi put the dinner into the lunch box and led the two children to deliver food to the father and mother. When they arrived at the field, they saw this posture, what a guy!

"Mom, why does my brother need to get so much wood? Do you need to warm yourself by the fire when it's cold?"

Xiao Yueyue bit her fingers and asked curiously.

"Yes, it's getting cold. Your brother and the others will make a fire to warm the rice. Otherwise, the rice will catch a cold if it gets cold."

She smiled and rubbed her daughter's little head, "Go and deliver the food to your brother!"

"Uh-huh!"

Xiao Yueyue took the enamel jar and ran over quickly.

Sun Jianping was checking with his hands behind his back, his eyes looking at the yarn on the black light from time to time, for fear of any mistakes.

"Brother is eating!"

Sun Jianping took it and opened it to see that the food was good!

Corn porridge!

Eggplant and potato sauce!
There’s also a peeled hard-boiled egg inside!

My sister-in-law is really attentive!
He took off his shoes and sat on the ground, grabbed his chopsticks and ate his dinner. Xiao Yueyue scampered to the edge of the rice field and reached out to pull the pampas grass.

"Brother, look, it's flying!"

Xiao Yueyue pulled a cattail stick, pulled off the fur on it, blew with her little mouth, and the cattail stick immediately flew all over the sky, making the little girl jump up and down with joy!
"Here it comes!" Sun Jianping raised his head, looked at Pu Mao's flight trajectory, and immediately realized what it was!
Cold snap!

coming!

He wiped his mouth and stood up. He handed the enamel jar to Xiao Yueyue and asked her to take it back quickly. He ran to the northwest corner of the rice field in three steps and two steps at a time, lit a pine torch and waved it twice!

When all the male laborers waiting at each wooden frame saw the signal, sweat broke out on their heads!
coming!

If this fails, the rice will be frozen and this year's harvest will be wasted!

Everyone’s heart was in their throats!
Lao Cao's hand holding the torch was also trembling slightly!

This rice field is his life!
If the rice hadn't withstood the cold wave this year, then the pillar in his heart might also collapse!
After all, I, Cao Jianmin, am also a famous person within a hundred miles. If word spreads that no grains of rice have been harvested, I will no longer have this old face!
I’m even more sorry for all the hard work and dedication this year!

The torch in the distance flickered three more times, and Lao Cao suddenly felt a biting coldness coming over him, making him shiver hard!
That thing is really here!
He hurriedly squatted down, stuffed the prepared pine trees into the wooden shelf, and lit them with a torch.

The dry pine seeds are full of pine oil, which catches fire when touched. As the pine seeds burst out with orange flames, they ignite the wooden shelves. The raging fire burns the wet corn stalks and grass, making a sizzling sound. Lines of white water vapor rise from the ground like long swimming dragons, pressed by the cold air from mid-air, covering the entire rice field!

More than thirty fire points are ignited at the same time!

In less than ten minutes, the steaming water vapor covered the entire rice field!
It's like covering the rice field with a thick "quilt" of hot air, insulating the cold air pressed down from the upper layer!

"This idiot is so smart!"

Qian Huijun stood by the bridge and looked at the brightly lit rice fields from a distance, and secretly praised it!
He's just stupid and doesn't understand his daughter's family at all!
"Let's go, Huihui, go take a look!"

Zhang Cuiyu and Zhou Wei ran out hand in hand and invited her to come to the rice field to watch the excitement.

"Quickly, humidify the firewood!"

The temperature was close to freezing point, but Sun Jianping's forehead was covered with sweat. He picked up an armful of fresh grass and pressed it onto the fire. A white "swimming dragon" rose into the sky again, being pressed by the airflow and covering the rice fields.

"The three of you are here just in time. Help me keep an eye on the fire. If the smoke is too small, press it up to wet the grass. Remember?"

"Yeah, remember!"

Sun Jianping said a few words, and ran quickly to the fire where the others were guarding, pressing piles of wet firewood on top to make the smoke as big as possible!
This busy work lasted half the night, and even people from Xiaoxishan came out to watch the fun. What were the two horses doing? Staying up late at night and playing around the fire?

Hu Laifu put on his clothes and hurried over. He saw Lao Cao holding a pipe in his mouth, squatting on the ground, grabbing a handful of grass and throwing it on the fire. He asked curiously, "Brother, where are you roasting potatoes here?"

"Where's the roasted sweet potatoes!"

The old man muttered angrily, leaving Hu Laifu speechless.

He was not stupid. He stood up and looked at the rice fields filled with smoke, and understood that they wanted to use this method to fight the cold wave and save the rice fields.

"Is this okay?"

"Whether it's okay or not, we won't know until we get it done?"

Hu Laifu scratched his head, this old man, if I ask a question, he will answer me!
He simply didn't ask, took off his shoes and put them under his buttocks, lit them on the fire, grabbed the wet grass and pressed them up.

"Will your team grow rice next year?" Lao Cao rubbed his sore arm, pressed a pot of tobacco leaves, picked out a branch from the fire, put it to it, lit it with a puff, and asked.

"I don't want to plant anything. Your rice is growing so well. I'm so jealous just looking at it. I just don't know if the lazy guys in our village are happy to do it."

"Feed those animals in your team well. They are so skinny that they look scary. Without good animals, even the best land is in vain. You have to take what I say to your heart..."

"Well, I'll listen to whatever you say!"

The sky is getting brighter, the warm sunshine is shining on the earth, and the burnt smell of last night is still in the air.

Sun Jianping yawned, lifted up the clothes on his body, rubbed his eyes, and felt something soft and sticky on his back...

He turned around and almost turned to stone on the spot!
