Lord Helanza

Chapter 221

In the morning, Surdak sat in the wood shed, took out the prepared gifts and placed them on the simple bed.

Didn't expect that life at home would be so embarrassing. At this time, I realized that the gift I prepared did not seem to be practical. Two pairs of exquisite ladies lamb leather boots, a light silk long skirt, and a string of inlays A gold necklace with rubies and an exquisite silver kettle are far less practical than cows, yellow sheep, bags of wheat and living supplies.

Since Old Sheila was willing to accept herself, Surdak began to figure out how to change her current life with unnoticeable influence.

The faint sound of footsteps came from next door, followed by the heavy wooden barrel being lifted up, and through the wood shed away from the wooden planks, it happened to see Rita carrying a wooden barrel out of the yard. At that time, Surdak realized that there seems to be no well in the yard. The water used by the whole family for food should be brought back from the creek beside the village. The barrel itself can weigh 20 kilograms. If it is filled with a bucket of water. If it is, it is estimated to have the weight of fifty-sixty catties.

Surdak regrets that he didn't take this into consideration when he took a bath last night, and wasted a large bucket of water.

Rita was holding Golden’s long hair at will. When she was carrying the barrel, her right shoulder was lowered by the heavy barrel. She leaned forward and walked out of the yard. Surdak walked out of the wood shed and found it simple The only wooden barrel in her bathroom was lifted away by Rita, and the water in the water tank at the door of the bathroom had bottomed out, thinking that there were two magic scrolls of'Water Condensation Technique' in her bag, so she took one. Zhang out.

This kind of'Water Condensation Technique' magic scroll is usually used in small group journeys, and it is inevitable to encounter embarrassing situations where no water source can be found along the way. This kind of Water Element magic scroll, As long as it is unfolded, the "Water Condensation Technique" magic pattern array on the scroll will be automatically turned on. Continuously there is a stream of water that gathers. Because this magic scroll is very convenient to carry, it has been widely used in various brigade, adventure groups and military .

But this kind of magic scroll is actually not suitable for ordinary family use, because its cost is not cheap, a magic scroll.

Surdak unfolded the magic scroll, and felt the faint mana in the magic pattern array on the scroll slowly flowing, and then some water droplets appeared on the water tank, dripping into the water tank. . The most convenient place for this kind of magic scroll is that the four corners of the parchment have four autumn leather nails, which can be temporarily nailed to the wooden wall.

Obviously, at this time, filling the water tank with the'Water Condensation Technique' magic scroll is a little extravagant. If there is an extra wooden barrel, Surdak feels that it’s okay to fetch water by the river. No, the clear water flows into the water tank. If this kind of magic scroll is used normally, it will probably be able to maintain one day and one night, and it will exhaust all the magic on the scroll.

Surdak walked to the yard. The ancient Bolai horse was tied to the stone mill. The horse was lowering its head and gnawing on a pile of green grass in front of him. Seeing Surdak approaching, he hurriedly bowed his head affectionately. After he smashed Surdak, Surdak saw that it was eating with some foam on the corner of his mouth. He pushed it away with disgust, and untied the rein that was tied to it, so that it could run around in the yard for two laps.

It just seems that the Gubolai horse is not satisfied with such a small range of activities in the yard. It is close to Surdak. It seems that he wants Surdak to take it out of the village. This kind of horse cannot They are kept in captivity, and they can’t have enough to eat at every meal, and they have to run and train every day, otherwise once they gain weight, they won’t be able to run.

Surdak turned on his horse, and Gubolai was so excited that he let out a neigh.

Natasha just came out with a water basin, and quickly retreated to the door in fright. It seemed that she was about to make breakfast, but she was frightened by the sound of horses.

Surdak turned the horse’s head, held the reins with one hand, and said to Natasha: "I will go outside and come back soon..."

In the small mountain ditch, because this mountain ditch has a small stream, because there are some barren slopes on the left and right sides of this mountain ditch, the villagers grow some barley and cassava on these barren slopes, probably these are what the villagers usually eat The rations and the land that can be cultivated are gathered near the rivers and streams. This river flows for about three kilometers on the surface and then seeps into the ground. Therefore, the land that can be cultivated is only the three kilometers of beach land.

Surdak walked up the creek, and soon out of the village of Wall, but it didn’t take long to reach the spring upstream of the creek. The mouth was only thick and the clear spring water came from The spring water came out of the stone eye because it was the rainy season, and the spring water was quite abundant, but the limestone geology here, with many rock cracks and holes, could not hold water at all. After the spring water reached the river beach downstream of the village, it all seeped into the ground.

Surdak jumped off his horse, squatted on the rocks next to the spring, took a sip of a handful of cool spring water, felt a slight smell of sulfur, in fact, if you look at the spring water like this, If the spring water is flowing out day and night, it is enough for the whole village to drink and irrigate the crops. The problem is probably that the geology here cannot hold water at all.

In fact, if a larger reservoir can be built upstream, it may slightly change the life of the village, when the time comes, even in the dry season, the village will not be short of water, Surdak He squatted by the creek and thought a lot. He wondered how to keep enough drinking water in the reservoir. He also thought of the energy-saving irrigation promoted in water-scarce areas in his previous life. Of course, the first thing to solve is the problem of water pipes. I don’t know if Helanza can be bought in the city. If it doesn’t work, bamboo pipes should be used instead!

But these are just preliminary ideas.

……

When returning to the stone house, Rita was squatting next to the water tank, looking curiously at the magic scroll on the wooden board next to the water tank. The water gathered from the magic scroll was already About to fill the water tank, the sound of hua hua came from the bathroom.

She used a wooden spoon to scoop a spoonful of water from the water tank, tried to take a sip, her expression was a little weird, and then she couldn't help taking a big sip.

"Natasha, come and take a look, the water in the tank is actually sweet..."

For Rita, who is used to drinking mountain spring water with the smell of sulfur In other words, the pure water condensed by the magic scroll does have a hint of sweetness.

When the two aunts realized that Surdak had returned from the outside, they hurriedly hid in the kitchen of the main house. Obviously they were not quite used to it and suddenly there was one more person in the house.

Surdak saw that the water tank was almost filled with water, so he re-rolled the magic scroll, so the'Water Condensation Technique' magic came to an abrupt end.

The breakfast is still chestnut rice porridge, but without the unpalatable cassava, the simple chestnut rice porridge is still very sweet. The only downside is that there are traces of chestnut skin in the porridge. I want It is impossible to pick out the chestnut skin completely, so I can only do it right, that is, I grind my throat when I swallow, but Rita, Natasha, and Little Peter all eat very sweetly.
