Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 347 Dragon
After chasing to the pine forest in the back mountain, wow! The next second, he and Xiaojuzi were teleported to the main hall of the Seven Realms Boat.

In the glass chamber, next to the tracking mirror.

The liquid robot saw Liu Qingsong coming in, pointed at the tracking mirror and said, "Recently, there has been a severe drought in Xiangnan Province, but Xiangbei Province and Dongao Province have been experiencing heavy rain for half a month. Many low-lying areas have been flooded. Do you want to take this opportunity to go to Xiangbei Province and store more water in the water storage ball for emergency use?"

"The question is, with the current ability of the guardian vine, can it teleport me so far?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"Yes, but not to East Austria Province. The distance is too far and it cannot be teleported there at all." The liquid robot replied.

"Then go and call the guardian vine to teleport me to the Diaozi River to get the water storage ball." Liu Qingsong pondered for a moment and made a decision: "There is a severe drought in Xiangnan Province now, and I really have to do something within my ability."

Otherwise, the tragedy of people starving to death before rebirth would probably happen again.

"Okay! Okay!" The liquid robot quickly did as it was told.

A moment later, Wow! The space around Liu Qingsong was torn apart.

He walked in quickly and appeared at the bank of Diaozi River the next second.

Although it was ten o'clock in the evening, there were still many villagers carrying water to irrigate the seedlings by the river.

There was an elderly and sick man who collapsed on the edge of a field due to exhaustion, and his grandchildren lay beside him crying loudly.

Liu Qingsong originally wanted to help carry the old man to Grandpa Jiang for treatment, but when he saw that the old man had woken up and was fine, he did not bother to care about him. Instead, he walked closer to Diaozi River, took out the water ball and put it into his space backpack.

Wow~~!

A tear in space appeared around me.

Liu Qingsong looked around cautiously and walked in.

"Are we going to Xiangbei Province now?" The liquid robot asked after Liu Qingsong stood firmly.

"Yeah," Liu Qingsong nodded.

Go and come back quickly, otherwise you won’t be able to sleep tonight.

"Brother, can you take me out to play?" Shi Hao suddenly jumped out.

"Well..." Liu Qingsong hesitated for a moment: "Okay! But let's make three rules. You have to obey me in everything."

Shi Hao is very powerful.

It wouldn't be a burden if she went, maybe it would even help him.

"I will definitely listen to my brother." Shi Hao was very happy.

"Let's go!" Liu Qingsong saw a torn space appearing around him, and walked in with Shi Hao.

After obtaining the consent of the guardian vine, the little eagle flew in with the eagle king.

Wow! The next second they appeared on a hillside.

The hillside was surrounded by vast floods, in which one could see the roofs of many houses and struggling livestock.

Rumble, the night sky was cut by a flash of lightning, followed by a strong wind mixed with heavy rain, making Shi Hao almost unable to stand.

But Liu Qingsong was not affected. With a wave of his hand, he used the water-control beads to form a water shield, wrapping himself and Shi Hao. Then he put on an invisibility cloak and slowly walked into the flood.

Floods automatically avoid water shields as if they were encountering a natural enemy.

"Brother, what kind of method do you have? It's so powerful!" Shi Hao asked enviously when he saw this.

"This is the ability of the water-controlling bead." Liu Qingsong said softly, then took out the water storage ball and placed it in the flood.

Wow~~!

After sensing the raging flood around it, the water storage ball immediately absorbed it at the fastest speed. In just a moment, a huge vortex formed around it.

Liu Qingsong stood beside the whirlpool and watched.

He knew that if nothing unexpected happened, with this absorption capacity, the flood here would be absorbed by the water storage ball in an hour. The water storage ball could store water indefinitely, and the flood here was the best resource for him.

However, this thought fell.

However, a fierce aura was approaching rapidly from the southeast.

"What's going on?" Liu Qingsong frowned.

"Brother, it looks like a loach." Shi Hao reminded.

"No, loach is not that big. It should be a big fish in the river. It ran out because of the flood." Liu Qingsong corrected.

"Then...can I roast it and eat it?" Shi Hao asked.

I haven’t eaten fresh big fish for a long time, so I won’t let it go if I see it this time.

"Okay, but you have to be careful." Liu Qingsong reminded.

“Hehe...this loach is no match for me.” Shi Hao said, and pounced over in a flash.

Liu Qingsong did not go to help, but stood beside the water ball and watched.

A moment later, Shi Hao swam over, dragging the carcass of the big fish: "Brother, I'll find a place to roast it..."

The words are not finished yet.

Liu Qingsong interrupted him: "I'm afraid you can't roast it."

"Why?" Shi Hao wondered.

"Because his companions are looking for trouble with you." Liu Qingsong pointed to the waters in the southeast: "I estimate there are at least a hundred of them."

"Then we can just kill them all in one go." Shi Hao became excited.

"You can't hold it." Liu Qingsong reminded.

"Why?" Shi Hao wondered.

"Because there is a dragon-like creature following them." Liu Qingsong replied in a low voice.

"Impossible?" Shi Hao widened his eyes. There were actually dragons in the low-level martial arts world where his brother lived?

"I wouldn't be wrong. Huh? It actually ran away?" Liu Qingsong frowned.

"Then I'll go chase him." Shi Hao was eager to try.

"No, our purpose is to store water in the water ball." Liu Qingsong said, then sat cross-legged next to the water ball and waited quietly.

Shi Hao didn't wait, but went ashore to grill the big fish.

Strangely enough, after the dragon ran away.

The strong wind stopped, the heavy rain stopped, and even many stars appeared in the night sky.

This scene made Liu Qingsong realize that the flood in northern Hunan Province was probably caused by this dragon.

"But how could there be dragons in the world I live in?" Liu Qingsong was puzzled.

Just as he was about to take out his cell phone to call the liquid robot and ask it to help investigate, a faint cry for help came from the northwest: "Help! Someone come and save me and my child!"

Liu Qingsong quickly surfaced after he realized what was happening.

Just about to check the source of the call for help.

The kid Shi Hao leaped towards the northwest.

The distance of this jump was actually several hundred meters.

Liu Qingsong felt a headache after watching this.

Fortunately it was night.

If it happened during the day, it would probably scare the surrounding villagers.

But now that things have come to this, he did not try to stop Shi Hao, but followed behind Shi Hao.

Soon, they came to a mud brick house that was flooded.

On the roof, a woman was holding her child and crying. Beside the woman, two older children were cuddled together.

Shi Hao was about to think of a way to rescue them when he saw this, but the invisible Liu Qingsong swung out the chain in his hand, wrapped around the woman and three children, and then brought them to a hillside.

The woman thought it was Shi Hao who saved her.

He knelt on the ground in bewilderment and said, "Thank you, thank you for saving my family. I have nothing to thank you for. This bracelet is for you. You..."

Before he could finish his words, Liu Qingsong took Shi Hao away with a long sigh, and returned to the water ball to continue waiting.

At around 1:30 in the morning, the water storage ball absorbed all the surrounding flood water, leaving only a shallow layer of muddy water.

"Let's go! Let's go back." Liu Qingsong yawned, then turned and walked into the space torn for him by the protective vine.

"Brother, wait for me." Shi Hao followed behind with a few big grass carps.

……

Because I went to bed very late.

The next day, Liu Qingsong didn't get up until around 1:00 p.m.

After lying in bed for a while, Liu Qingsong put on his clothes and walked towards the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi and Yaomei were eating cantaloupe. When they saw Liu Qingsong coming in, they quickly surrounded him. Among them, Xiao Nuomi raised his little head and said, "Uncle, uncle... There is no watermelon in the refrigerator. Go to the market and buy some."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong agreed readily: "By the way, where's your mom? Why didn't I see her today?"

Normally, as long as his elder sister was at home, it would be impossible for him to sleep until one o'clock in the afternoon.

"Let's go back with daddy!" Little Nuomi replied, "I'll be here in a few days."

"Really?" Liu Qingsong rubbed Xiao Nuomi's head and said, "Then your uncle will take you to the market to buy some watermelon later."

"Third brother, I want to go too." The youngest sister raised her hand.

"And me." The little rascal also said.

"Okay!" Liu Qingsong picked up the porcelain basin, scooped water and started washing his face.

After finishing, just as he was about to brush his teeth, Ye Qingmei's voice rang out at the door: "Qingsong, do you have time now?"

"What?" Liu Qingsong asked with a smile.

"Uncle Lei needs Deadpool's help." Ye Qingmei said in a low voice: "Can you find him?"

"Deadpool is protecting Ye Xiaoxiao in No. 1 Middle School! You should be able to find him if you go there." Liu Qingsong said as he brushed his teeth: "I won't go, I have to take Xiao Nuomi out to buy watermelon later."

"Yes, there is no watermelon to eat in the house, and sister is not allowed to take uncle away." Little Nuomi agreed.

"The question is, Qingsong, if you don't go, will Deadpool listen to me and go to Gusha City to help Uncle Lei?" Ye Qingmei asked back.

"Well..." Liu Qingsong thought for a moment before suggesting, "How about this, you wait for me to have lunch and then go find Deadpool together."

"Okay." Ye Qingmei nodded. Seeing that Xiao Nuomi was eating the cantaloupe with relish, she quickly picked up a piece and started eating it while sitting at the door.

Liu Qingsong ignored them and continued brushing his teeth.

……

After eating, Liu Qingsong knew that Uncle Lei’s matter could not be delayed, so he closed the kitchen door and took Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei and Xiao Taoqi to the three-wheeled vehicle parked on the side of the road.

Ye Qingmei walked quickly to the military jeep on the threshing ground of Pangdun's family, and then drove ahead to No. 1 Middle School.

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the gate of No. 1 Middle School.

At this time, No. 1 Middle School was holding an exam, the gate was closed, and there were several police officers patrolling around.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsong had no choice but to let Ye Qingmei look after Xiao Nuomi and the others, while he went to look for Deadpool around.

A moment later, Deadpool was found sleeping soundly on a big tree.

"Hey! Hey! Wake up." Liu Qingsong kicked the tree.

Deadpool was caught off guard and almost fell from the tree. He was about to get angry, but when he saw that it was Liu Qingsong who came to find him, he jumped down from the tree with a smile: "Boss, protecting Ye Xiaoxiao is so boring! Can you give me a different job?"

"Yes, you can go to Gusha City now to help Uncle Lei." Liu Qingsong said softly, "Sister Qingmei is waiting for you at the gate."

"Then I'll go find her now." Deadpool quickly ran towards the gate.

But he quickly turned back and said, "Boss, Ye Xiaoxiao is safe at the moment, you can rest assured."

"As long as you're safe." Liu Qingsong nodded, and while walking towards the gate with Deadpool, he asked about other situations in the middle school.

Seeing that there was nothing suspicious, he let Deadpool leave No. 1 Middle School by car.

"Uncle, can we go buy watermelons now?" Little Nuomi asked while hugging Liu Qingsong's right leg when she saw Ye Qingmei finally leave.

"It's okay." Liu Qingsong touched Xiao Nuomi's little head and led him towards the three-wheeler parked on the side of the road.

After all the children were seated, we drove towards the market.

What surprised Liu Qingsong was that there were no watermelons or cantaloupes for sale in the market on such a hot day.

Upon asking the vendors, I learned that due to the hot and dry weather, the watermelons were sold out early in the morning, and only a few hundred kilograms appeared in the market, with the price as high as 35 cents per kilogram.

In 1979, watermelons cost 3.5 yuan per pound, which is equivalent to 40 to 50 yuan per pound decades later.

The reason for this scene is obviously the reduction in watermelon production caused by drought.

Liu Qingsong had no choice but to ride his sidecar to the Dongfanghong Farmers Market to buy watermelons.

But at this time, Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi and the youngest sister were already feeling extremely hot, and the youngest sister's face was so red from the heat.

Liu Qingsong knew that this was not going to work, and seeing that the supply and marketing cooperative was not far away, he quickly increased the speed of the sidecar.

After arriving, he parked the three-wheeler and walked into the supply and marketing cooperative with the three little ones.

What Liu Qingsong didn't expect was that the window area on the southeast side of the supply and marketing cooperative was actually piled with watermelons.

But when passers-by wanted to pay to buy it, they were driven away by a fat man.

He even mocked her: "I sent this watermelon to Gusha City. Can you afford it at one yuan per pound?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people shopping in the supply and marketing cooperative could not help but look over, and Liu Qingsong even frowned.

I never thought that the employees of the supply and marketing cooperative would take advantage of the drought to make money in an unscrupulous way.

In order to prevent such unhealthy trends from continuing to ferment in Dayu City, Liu Qingsong decisively reached into the space backpack.

Just when he was about to teach the fat man a lesson, a burly middle-aged man got the upper hand and angrily scolded the fat man: "Li Qunan, are you fucking mentally ill? It's true that the watermelon was sent to Gusha City, but was it sold for money? It was given to the soldiers fighting the disaster to eat."

"Can you please stop spouting so much shit and turning a good thing into a bad one?"

"Okay! Okay!" The fat man, Li Qunan, nodded with a wry smile.

When Liu Qingsong heard this, he was stunned and took his hand out of the space backpack.

Seeing Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei, and Xiao Taoqi drooling at the watermelons, he had no choice but to lead them to the popsicle counter: "Those watermelons are not for sale. How about I buy popsicles for you?"

"Okay! Okay!" Little Nuomi agreed.

"Third brother, we need two more." The youngest sister also said.

"Okay!~Okay!" Liu Qingsong walked to the counter, took out 80 cents and handed it to the salesperson: "Give me eight salt water popsicles."

"Okay!" The salesperson took the money, took a look at it, then opened the freezer and picked up a salt water popsicle for Liu Qingsong.

After getting them, Liu Qingsong gave two to Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei and Xiao Taoqi respectively, and then walked out of the supply and marketing cooperative while eating.

After eating the popsicle, the youngest sister's complexion returned to normal.

Seeing that it was still early, Liu Qingsong drove his sidecar to the Dongfanghong Farmers’ Market.

Ten minutes later, the four of them arrived at the open space on the right side of the entrance of the Dongfanghong Farmers' Market.

After Liu Qingsong parked the sidecar, he was about to get off the car with Xiao Nuomi in his arms, when Liu Lijuan's happy voice came from the gate: "Qingsong, why did you come to the farmer's market today?"

"Buy some watermelons." Liu Qingsong replied.

"We have eaten all the watermelons at home." Little Nuomi followed with another sentence.

"We went to the market before and didn't buy any watermelons." Little Prank echoed.

"Really?" Liu Lijuan reached out and took Xiao Taoqi and Xiao Nuomi's hands. "There are no watermelons for sale in the farmer's market now. All of them have been bought up by the vendors and are hoarding them. They plan to sell them at a high price tomorrow. But I bought a dozen watermelons this morning and was planning to send them back. Now that you're here, that's perfect. I'll take you to get them."

"Oh! That's great, there are watermelons to eat." Little Nuomi cheered and ran into the gate of the farmer's market with his short legs.

The youngest sister and the naughty little one followed behind.

"Slow down." Liu Lijuan and Liu Qingsong chased after them.

Soon, the group of three arrived at the door of the blue brick house that was being renovated.

The exterior decoration of the blue brick house is almost finished, but the inside is now a mess.

Liu Qingsong was just about to go and see what was going on when he heard a fierce quarrel on the street ahead.

"What's going on?" Liu Lijuan looked over.

Liu Qingsong also turned his head.

When he heard his eldest sister's voice in the quarrel, he was stunned and ran over quickly.

Liu Lijuan followed behind with Xiao Nuomi, Xiao Taoqi and Yaomei.

When they got closer, they realized that the source of the quarrel was because their brother-in-law Wang Kuiwu hit someone on the street while driving a jeep.

No, I should say I hit someone.

But the 'injured person' sitting on the ground did not wail or cry out in pain, but instead hugged Wang Kuiwu's right leg and demanded compensation.

As for how much compensation to be paid, the price must be three thousand and not a penny less.

It's 1979 now, and the compensation of 3,000 would be an astronomical figure.

That's why Wang Kuiwu and Liu Chunhua couldn't help but quarrel with the parents and relatives of the injured person.

After understanding the cause and effect of the incident, Liu Lijuan was about to step forward to support Wang Kuiwu and Liu Chunhua, but was stopped by Liu Qingsong: "Go and call Liu Hang. These people are obviously not good people. Only Liu Hang, the gang leader, can deal with them."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Lijuan hurriedly ran to find Liu Hang.

After a while, not only Liu Hang and He Peng were called over, but also Wang Qing and a dozen other managers of the Dongfanghong Farmers' Market.
