Era: I was a farmer at the foot of Yaoling Mountain

Chapter 30 Double Needle Dragon Searching Method

"Master Guan, Xiao Fang, welcome, welcome."

The person in charge of the drilling team is still technician Liao. He is familiar with Fang Wei, but it is his first time dealing with Guan Chongyang.

Guan Chongyang didn't have a cold face towards everyone. He smiled slightly and replied:

"We may not be able to help you, so please feel free to arrange whatever you need us to do and do our best."

With the old man taking the lead, Fang Wei didn't need to express his opinion at all.

Technician Liao ignored all this and immediately took the two of them to Team 1 of Tianjia Brigade to start a field survey.

"The entire Tianjia Brigade is suffering from a severe drought. I found a source of underground water, but according to calculations, the water table is very deep, at least 150 meters below the surface. Our technology is not up to the requirements for extraction."

Technician Liao explained the situation to Fang Wei and Guan Chongyang and took them to the previous drilling site.

Old Master Guan walked over and took a look, then muttered something, as if he was measuring something with his footsteps.

Fang Wei felt that the other party should have a compass in his hand, which would make it more exciting.

He believed that the other party had real skills, but it was hard to say how effective it would be.

In short, he will always follow behind the old man and be a small transparent person.

After being busy for a long time, Guan Chongyang finally came back.

"I think the groundwater level nearby is very deep. Let's go over there and take a look."

The local area is mountainous and hilly, there is not much arable land, and the water conservancy facilities are also very backward.

Then he went to the village and saw several wells, which were said to have a history of hundreds of years. In any case, the village had not dug a new well in the past twenty years.

Twenty years have passed in the blink of an eye, but some things will still change.

We had lunch at the production team leader's house. Four people came from the well-drilling team this time, and with Fang Wei and Guan Chongyang, there were six people in total.

After the matter was over, the commune would pay money and food coupons to the members responsible for the reception, and they would not eat for free.

After eating and resting for a while, Guan Chongyang continued to wander in the fields.

"Grandpa, did you gain anything?"

Seeing that it was almost evening, Technician Liao couldn't help but ask a question.

He knew that his technical level was average, but he hoped that the two foreign players could make a breakthrough.

"The situation isn't good. Give me three days. If I can't fix it within three days, no one else will be able to help."

Guan Chongyang is a very responsible person. He would not come if he didn't come, but since he is here, he will definitely do his best.

Fang Wei didn't understand the other party's theory, but he was mentally prepared for the difficulty of digging a well in the local area.

The local geological structure is complex and the groundwater level is very deep, but the existing technology and equipment are not enough.

They returned empty-handed in the afternoon. After dinner, Guan Chongyang and Fang Wei sat in the host's yard to enjoy the cool air.

The hot weather is a little better, at least the wind blowing at night is a little cooler.

"Uncle Guan, your body is comparable to that of a young man. You are not tired even after running all day."

Guan Chongyang is 70 years old. His hair and beard are all white, and his complexion does not look very good, but he is in good spirits.

Everyone was busy all day, and Technician Liao went to rest shortly after finishing his meal, while Fang Wei and Guan Chongyang acted as if nothing had happened.

Fang Wei is young, but his physical fitness surpasses his peers, and Grandpa Guan is no ordinary person either.

"Haha, I'm in good health. I've been taking care of you lately and have had a few full meals. It's no big deal if I'm a little tired."

Guan Chongyang laughed and didn't think it was anything big.

He has experienced both hardship and happiness in his life, and has persisted in health-preserving exercise for decades, with great results.

Back then, he was a famous Feng Shui master. Apart from anything else, he made a fortune just by helping people find water veins and dig wells.

Later, because his job could no longer continue, he returned to the village to retire.

He and Fang Wei were not familiar with each other before, and he only gave him a water vein map because he couldn't bear the hunger. Later, through getting to know each other, he fell in love with this young man. After all, he was well-educated, smart, and understood the ways of the world at a young age.

The two became close because of the water vein map, and because of the water vein map, they came out together to find water and dig a well.

Sitting together to enjoy the cool air, we talked about almost everything.

Fang Wei was very curious about Guan Chongyang's secret to finding water veins. Guan Chongyang did not hide anything and took the initiative to tell him a lot.

Feng Shui masters do not just help people look at houses for the living and the dead as Fang Wei understands. They also help people find water and minerals.

These things are no longer popular nowadays. If it weren't for the severe drought this year, the commune and the team would not have asked Guan Chongyang to come out of retirement.

To be honest, Tang Ze did take some risks by doing this, and it was a helpless choice.

"Uncle Guan, I've benefited a lot from listening to you talk. It's getting late, and we have to get up early tomorrow. Come inside and get some rest."

The two of them became happier as they talked, and before they knew it, it was already late.

Fang Wei and Guan Chongyang then went back to rest. There were many houses in the house where they stayed, and the accommodation conditions were acceptable.

The next day.

Guan Chongyang asked someone to find two pieces of wire, and then he made two simple probes by himself.

The probe is angled at 90 degrees, with one end long and the other short. The short end is housed in a wooden handle and can be rotated very flexibly.

He held two probes in each hand, his arms extended forward at chest level.

The probe points forward and rotates slightly continuously, with the two needles sometimes approaching and sometimes moving away.

Guan Chongyang walked slowly, followed closely by Fang Wei, technician Liao, and a member of the well drilling team.

"Playing tricks! Master Liao, what do you think the people above are thinking, letting such an old man help us?"

The other member of the well-drilling team was a young woman, about twenty years old, with an ordinary appearance, but a very powerful mouth.

Her name is Li Xia. She lives in the county town and her family is well off.

The unit arranged for her to study under technician Liao. She was usually studious and inquisitive, but she hated these bad things.

"Keep your voice down, don't let Master Guan hear you."

Technician Liao glared at the other person, and Li Xia stopped talking.

Fang Wei walked a little faster, but because he was close, he heard what Li Xia said and felt a little unhappy at the time.

Technician Liao felt a little embarrassed and took a few quick steps to come to Fang Wei's side.

"Xiao Fang, don't mind me. Xiao Li has just started working and may not understand things outside of books."

The current social atmosphere is still acceptable. Although Technician Liao does not understand Guan Chongyang's approach, he does not reject it outright.

After all, he had worked with Fang Wei before, and at that time the two of them dug an artesian well based on a water vein map.

So he quickly explained to Fang Wei that he did not treat the other party as a young boy.

"It's okay, just don't say it in front of the old man."

Fang Wei had no intention of pursuing anything, so he waved his hand gently and said nothing more.

Technician Liao made small talk and asked, "Xiao Fang, do you know what the old man is doing? Why don't I understand?"

"Uncle Guan is using the [Double Needle Dragon Finding Method]. Do you see those two probes? If there's an underground water vein where he passes, they'll show noticeable changes."

Fang Wei talked with Guan Chongyang about the [Double Needle Dragon-Seeking Method] last night. In fact, this method is still used by people in later generations.

He had seen some videos on this subject in his previous life. It was said that someone had actually found an underground water source using two [dowsing rods].

The two probes Guan Chongyang is currently using can be seen as a simplified version of the [Dowsing Rod].

He did not explain much to Technician Liao, and based on the principle of saying less and making fewer mistakes, he just made a point.
