It was late at night and people were silent. Lu Cheng lay on the wooden bed, rubbed his jade rings, chanted spells silently, and returned to modern times.

After waking up, I habitually touched my phone to check it. The time displayed was 0:01 am on July 11.

Before Jiang Qiuyun came back, the room was quiet.

Lu Cheng read the news for a while.

Some news is shocking, for example, in recent days, floods have occurred in the Yangtze River and the Yellow River basins, because while the rainfall increases, the melting of glaciers on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has also increased. In the final analysis, there are four large tombs in China, each of which is constantly emitting white smoke, which has brought about a revival of spiritual energy and also changed the climate.

There are some articles that reveal that the land of China has experienced many changes in warmth and coldness.

Around 2100-2050 BC, global climate warmed and glaciers melted, causing a major flood in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. This time was almost the time when the legendary Xia Dynasty began to take shape. The reason for the formation of the Xia Dynasty may be to manage the organizational management of manpower and material resources caused by the flood after this warming.

In the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the climate was still in a warm period. "Mencius Teng Wengong II" records: "Zhou Gong Gong was the prime minister of King Wu to kill Zhou and destroyed the country fifty. He drove tigers, leopards, rhinestones, and elephants away, and the world was very happy." From this, it can be seen that there were rhinestones in the Central Plains in the early years of the Western Zhou Dynasty, such a tropical animal.

The climate began to cool down around the time of King Zhao of Zhou and King Mu.

This cold period lasted for about 1-2 centuries. The long-term cold affected the economy and weakened the Zhou family. Queen Xiao of Zhou continued to instability. In 771 BC, Quanrong captured Haojing during King You of Zhou.

In 770 BC, after the Spring and Autumn Period began, the climate entered a warm period. This warm period lasted for a long time, about 800 years. This was the glorious era in ancient China, the battle for hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period, the seven heroes of the Warring States Period, the pre-Qin philosophers, the King of Qin swept the Liuhe, the dispute between Chu and Han, the Emperor of Qin, the Emperor of Qin and Han, the Emperor of Han and Wu. During this period, Chinese history was brilliant and gorgeous, and countless romantic figures appeared on the stage of history, leaving behind the words passed down from generation to generation, immortal achievements, and moving legends.

Then there was a 600-year cold period, which began in the early AD and ended in the early Sui Dynasty, including the Three Kingdoms, the Sixteen Kingdoms of Wei and Jin Dynasties, and the Southern and Northern Dynasties. It was a chaotic era.

Starting from the Sui Dynasty, it entered a warm period, spanning the Sui Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Five Dynasties, and Northern Song Dynasty.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, eight waters surrounded Chang'an, and citrus could bear fruit in Chang'an. The warm period of this medieval era lasted for about 500 years, which was shorter than the 800-year warm period in ancient times, but it was also a glorious historical period. The Sui and Tang Dynasties were the pinnacle of feudal dynasties, and the culture of this era was dazzling, and heroes emerged in this era. Like the last warm period, the courts ruled the Western Regions, Chang'an and Luoyang were very prosperous, the political system was innovated, and the culture was very prosperous.

From 1050 to 1200 AD, it was a cold period. In 1125, the Jin Dynasty destroyed Liao Dynasty and in 1127, the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed. In the fifth year of Chunxi in the Southern Song Dynasty (1178

In 2018), all litchi in Fuzhou were frozen to death.

The period from 1200 to 1350 AD was a warm period.

The period from 1350 to 1900 was a cold period, also known as the Little Ice Period of the Ming and Qing Dynasties.

One of the coldest periods was between 1650 and 1700 AD. During this period, the Han River freezes five times, Taihu Lake and Huaihe River freeze four times, Dongting Lake freezes three times, and Poyang Lake also freezes in the ninth year of Kangxi. It is said that the one-year ice-seal period of the Grand Canal of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal was as long as 109 days.

Starting from 1900, the climate began to warm. The great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is about to begin again.

In recent years, due to the emergence of several large tombs, climate warming has intensified. The average temperature has increased by two or three degrees every year. Although it is just a difference of two or three degrees, it has a very great impact on the climate, with increasing rainfall, desert greening, and increasing lakes in the western region, but it has also brought floods to the Yangtze River and the Yellow River.

Although the country has built many reservoirs and dams in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, floods have brought impacts to these dams. Sometimes the flood comes too quickly and there is no time to open the gate and release water, which may lead to the risk of dam collapse.

Thinking of this, Lu Cheng put down his cell phone, got up and walked to the basement, silently carving the jade talisman.

At 8:30 a.m., he called the leader of the National Security Bureau named Yang: "I can make a 'water-absorbing jade talisman'. A jade talisman can store 30 million cubic meters of flood water and wait until it is released during the dry season; it can also send the flood to the Taklamakan Desert. With this jade talisman, the country can save hundreds of billions of flood control funds and produce immeasurable benefits."

In fact, the so-called water storage talisman is a storage device specially used to store water. The runes on it have been modified by Lu Cheng and can only be used to hold liquids and cannot contain other things.

It sounds like 30 million cubic meters, but it is not particularly amazing. The storage jade pendant made by Lu Cheng, a sphere with a diameter of 500 meters, has an internal space of 50 million cubic meters.

A rapid breathing sound came from the phone, followed by a powerful voice: "Mr. Lu, what do you need? I am willing to hand over the method of making this jade talisman?"

"I promised my mother-in-law that she would help her establish a science and technology award, which would reward 100 young scientists every year, and would require at least 10 billion yuan in funds. But I am very poor and can't afford this money. I wonder if the country can allocate 10 billion yuan to help me fulfill this promise?"

"Mr. Lu, please give me some time. I need to seek opinions from leaders and relevant departments."

"OK."

Lu Cheng hung up the phone, then found another phone number and dialed it according to the number.

The person who answered the phone was Zhang Ji from "Heihuquan Comprehensive Service Company".

Lu Cheng said: "I want to set up a private research institute, and you can help me with the process, and hire an all-round manager and several researchers."

Zhang Ji asked: "What is the research scope of the research institute you want to set up?"

"It is a special bone. I call it 'spiritual bone', and the name of the institute is 'spiritual bones'. The goal of the initial research was to use spiritual bones to implant teeth, and then research on artificial joints may be carried out."

“How much money are you going to invest in registration?”

"Only 1 billion."

Zhang Ji was very excited: "Okay, I'll find someone to help you operate!"

Until 3 pm, Lu Cheng received a call from the National Security Bureau, and he was still the person in charge named Yang.

"Mr. Lu, in view of Hongxun's emergency, the leader issued an order and agreed to pay 10 billion yuan for 200 water-sucking jade talismans, and how to make it."

"No problem. But it takes special jade to make this kind of water-absorbing talisman, and that kind of jade is difficult to find."

"Where did you get it?"

"I have traveled around almost all the jade cities and finally found a few."

"It doesn't matter, the world is so great that it can always be found if it is devoted to the power of a country."

Hearing this, Lu Cheng suddenly jumped in his heart and said to himself: "With the revival of the spiritual energy in the western region, have the underground spiritual veins of Kunlun Mountain also recovered? If the spiritual veins are restored, then has the jade that was originally left in the cave become spiritual jade? No, this matter is very important, I have to go over and take a look!"

The next morning, two comrades from the National Security Bureau came to Qingquan Villa with a jade carving master and an ancient writing expert.

This ancient characters expert is named "Wu Qingqing". He is thirty-six or seven years old and has been here before.

She asked Lu Cheng: "Where is Jiang Qiuyun? Why aren't she at home? I'm here this time and I want to have a good chat with her."

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "She went to Zhangjiajie for a meeting."

"Oh, I heard that she worked hard to write books and still has time to go out for a meeting?"

"She just finished writing two books and wanted to go out and relax."

Lu Cheng handed her the printed rune image, briefly told her about the rune combination above, and then took the jade carving master into the basement and taught him how to use the automatic carving mechanism to talisman.

This jade carving master is named "Luo Jinqiang". He is in his forties. He is an authentic expert with more than 20 years of experience in carving. He is much better than a self-taught half-bear carving master like Lu Cheng. Not only did he learn how to carve the water-seeking jade talisman at a glance, he also explained the carving technique to Lu Cheng.

An hour later, the two walked out of the basement.

Luo Jinqiang and Wu Qingqing whispered a few words, meaning, "I have learned everything I should learn. The production of water talisman is very simple and not difficult."

At this time, Lu Cheng moved out five jade pieces from a room, each with dozens of kilograms. He called several people over and asked, "Look, are there any differences between these jade pieces?"

Wu Qingqing seemed a little excited: "This is all Hetian jade? Is it mountain material? It's so big? It's pure and warm, the jade is delicate and valuable."

The two national security personnel just stared at each other with wide eyes and did not speak.

Luo Jinqiang looked carefully for a moment, then reached out and touched it, saying, "Although they are all white jade with mutton fat, there is still a big difference between these two pieces and those three pieces!"

Wu Qingqing asked: "I think the jade is of the same quality, and the content of tremolite is above 99%.

Luo Jinqiang said: "The difference is not the quality of jade, but the 'shen rhyme'."

Wu Qingqing was a little surprised: "Ah? You said jade has a charm?"

Luo Jinqiang nodded: "Yes, look at the three pieces of jade here, which have a warm white tone with greasy luster. This tone is a sense of inner glossiness. It is not extremely white, but it is more peaceful than extremely white, making people feel more quiet. It seems that jade and people can be integrated from this.

Whenever you look at a beautiful jade, sometimes you will get a sentence "lack of breath" or "has a little taste", this is what is called "Shen Yun".

Lu Cheng smiled slightly and said to the two comrades from the National Security Bureau who were standing a little farther away: "You can also reach out and touch it. Only by touching it with your own hands can you perceive the difference."

The two comrades in Guoan differed in age. One of them was middle-aged. He reached out and touched him, frowned and didn't say anything.

The other one was very young and looked less than 25 years old. He reached out and touched him and quickly retracted: "Hey, is there a monster hidden in this jade? It seems that he can bite my hand!"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "Nonsense, where did the monster come from! Touch it again!"

The young man stretched out his hand again, touched each stone, and said, "I understand. The two jades on the left are warmer to the touch; the three jades on the right are faintly emitting a 'cool air', just like a small needle piercing my skin."

Lu Cheng said: "I know that all the people from the National Security Bureau have been carefully selected. Like this young comrade, he should have practiced qigong before and could sense the difference between jade. Right?"

The young man laughed and said, "I have practiced Bajiquan for several years."

The middle-aged man said: "Xiao Li learned family kung fu, and Bajiquan is quite good."

The young man grinned and did not say which family inherited it. After all, he was from the National Security Bureau and could not disclose his origin privately.

Lu Cheng pointed to the jade on the ground and said, "The two jades on the left belong to ordinary white mutton fat; the three pieces on the right contain spiritual energy, and I call them "spiritual jade".

Only jade talismans carved with "spiritual jade" can achieve the maximum effect. Ordinary jade can also be carved with, but it cannot accommodate 30 million cubic meters.

I don’t have much of this kind of spiritual jade in my hand. I give these three pieces to you. I can cut and polish them into jade plaques and make a lot of jade talismans.

In addition, the 200 finished products I promised to give you, and only 60 of them have been completed, so I will leave them to you to take them away.

I will make the rest as soon as possible.”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lu, thank you for your hard work. I will leave Xiao Li in Qingquan Villa. If you have any questions, you can call him." Then, several people went out with Yushi in their arms and drove away.
Chapter completed!
