Chapter 172 Natural disaster strikes! Zhao Xing’s countermeasures!(1/2)
Yuncheng, Si Agricultural Supervisor.
After the discussion was over and Yuncheng's prevention and control plan was confirmed, he returned and immediately led people to start the work.
The first step is to set up checkpoints at the entrances of various tributaries in the Canglan River Basin that enter Yuncheng.
It's not a level in the ordinary sense, but a magic circle.
Before anyone could make up for it, Zhao Xing asked Ling Yuan to build a batch of magic arrays called 'Shui Qing Yuan Array'.
At this time, Ling Yuan was leading his men to disembark at the entrance of the ‘Mei River’.
Zhao Xing asked Xia Jing for a group of warriors. At this time, the warriors were helping to lift the formation base from the flying boat.
The base of the array is mainly made of the fifth-level material 'Silk Green Crystal Mother', supplemented by third- and fourth-level materials. It looks like a huge black box.
Each one weighs 10,000 tons, and the special dragon boat made by the craftsman can only transport twenty formation bases at a time.
"Sir, the triple dragon boat crane has hoisted forty-five formation bases. The formation at the entrance of the Mei River is expected to be completed tomorrow." Ling Yuan ran over and said to Zhao Xing. "With the help of the warriors,
, the progress is much faster than expected.”
Zhao Xing glanced at the river and said to Ling Yuan: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers, we will get off work overtime. It will be completed today."
"Sir, they haven't slept for three days, right?"
"I sent warriors here to help, just to complete the work as soon as possible." Zhao Xing said, "The wizards of the Southern Barbarians will definitely start in April. It is better to work overtime and suffer a lot at this time than to be dismissed from office or even die later."
"Please Sir Ling, please explain these truths clearly to the brothers. You must not cut corners or be lazy. As long as you don't leave, no one will say anything. You have worked hard for this time, and your team can have a day off tomorrow."
"Yes, I will definitely stick to this place." Although Ling Yuan was also very tired, Zhao Xing had given the order, so he could only comply.
Although he didn't agree with Zhao Xing's high-profile approach, Zhao Xing didn't need his approval, he just followed orders and was done.
After looking here for a while, Zhao Xing ran to the next location.
"What are you defending against with this formation?" Long Xiao asked curiously. "I'll make a note of it, maybe I'll need it in the future."
Following Zhao Xing, he also became eager to learn.
"How much do you know about the shamans of the Southern Barbarians?" Zhao Xing asked.
"The horizontal one at the top represents the sky, the other horizontally at the bottom represents the earth, and the vertical one in the middle represents the sacred mountain. Some people also say that this vertical one is the sacred tree."
"Divided according to levels, there are celestial witches, earth witches and human witches."
"Those at the Heavenly Witch level live in the sacred mountains deep in the Southern Wilderness. Generally, the patriarchs or kings of foreign tribes are also at the Heavenly Witch level."
"The Southern Barbarian Sacred Mountain orders all tribes, kingdoms, and sects outside the country to hide in it."
"According to types, there are many, including the five elements, wind and thunder, there are seven types. There are also blood witches, insect witches, beast witches, etc. The most common one is the force witch, which is similar to us warriors, but there are also many ways to fight.
Diverse.”
"It's much more troublesome to classify by position. Customs are different in various places in the Southern Barbarians. For example, in some places, a witch can do things like sacrifice, and even shamans can also perform sacrifices. But some tribes only have certain kinds of sacrifices.
Only a wizard can do it."
"I can remember the fighting styles of twenty-seven large tribes, as well as the wizard's specialties."
Zhao Xing gave a thumbs up: "Knowing this, it will be more than enough for the imperial court to grant you the title of Marquis of Wu."
Long Xiao smiled and said: "Don't praise me, I haven't said what formation you asked Tiangongfang to play."
Zhao Xingdao: "When the Southern Barbarian tribes fight, they must first send out witches to use the Canglan River Basin to cast spells. Have you ever heard of the Ten Disasters of Heavenly Witches?"
"I've heard of a legendary magic that turns sand into lice, grains disappear, water turns into blood, beasts turn into madness, the world's ice knives, rivers of blood surge into the sky, terrifying parasitism, evil gods eat souls, darkness comes to the world, and the world is destroyed.
Pass."
"It is said that even the Heavenly Witch cannot reach the last step."
Zhao Xing nodded: "The legend you are telling is about the Heavenly Witch and the Ten Divine Disasters. If it is executed to the last step, then everyone will die together, and the area of the world where the spell is cast will also become a forbidden area. Without the war of annihilation, it will not be possible."
Won’t use it.”
"We won't go that far. What I'm guarding against is a plague of ten insects at the level of human witches."
"Ten insect plague?" Long Xiao touched his chin, "I seem to have heard of it somewhere."
Zhao Xingdao: "A seventh-level insect witch can cast ten insect plagues, and the specific insects have different names."
"If it's a normal natural disaster, I'm not afraid. If everyone touches it, whoever will win might win."
"But the insect witch is very troublesome. He occupies an advantageous location. He only needs to stand upstream to raise the magic insects and make the aquatic insect eggs flow down the river, and then he can secretly enter the territory of Yuncheng."
"If it's a prefecture-level insect witch, a single female insect can wipe out all the people and animals in Yuncheng, and even military doctors can't save it."
"Even if I can use the climatic transformation method to kill these female insects, its reproductive ability is too strong and it will be very troublesome to deal with. If it really comes in, the agricultural supervisor and the medical department will not have to do anything else, so we must prevent it.
With."
"The fifth-level clear water Qingyuan Formation is the best way to prevent insect witches."
"Ling Yuan doesn't understand because he thinks this magic circle is too unpopular and there is no need to create such a high-level one."
"Insect witches are difficult to cultivate, and they don't appear much on the battlefield."
"But be prepared for any emergencies. Fucheng has replenished so many materials for Yuncheng. I will definitely not let them get moldy."
"I'll give you a book. Read it carefully. It's all about insect witches."
Long Xiao nodded: "I have indeed seen less insect witches, but you are an expert, so you have the final say. Water Clear Qingyuan Formation? I have written it down, and I will take a look when I get back."
Zhao Xing told Long Xiao so much not just to clear up his doubts, but because he knew that insect witches, which had rarely appeared in the previous two hundred years, would appear in large numbers in this war!
The Great Zhou is making progress, and so are the Southern Barbarian aliens. The pressure on the Southern Barbarian aliens is even greater. In order to be on guard against the behemoth of the Great Zhou, they have really racked their brains to develop various secret techniques.
The insect witch also burst out with amazing energy in this plain-barbarian battle, inflicting heavy losses on the plain-barbarian army.
Long Xiao would definitely have the opportunity to go deep into the Southern Wilderness, and so would Old Chen. Zhao Xing didn't want any problems to arise between these two people, so he took this opportunity to give Long Xiao a warning.
In fact, we still have to hope that Lao Chen will read this book. There are not many solutions that the warrior Long Xiao can think of, and Lao Chen is the master.
Since all the five departments in Yuncheng were united on the front, the chief officials of each department strongly supported the actions of the Agricultural Supervisor.
Zhao Xing started to get things done and the progress was quite fast.
Even if he used this unpopular magic circle and used luxurious materials to order the mechanics to arrange it, no one would dare to say anything.
He does not need the understanding of the people below him, he only needs the support of the chief officials of each department.
To what extent did each department support Zhao Xing?
"The soul is back!"
At Yin Shi, Zhang Yi stood at the head of a bridge, holding a soul-inducing lamp and shaking a bell.
There was an altar in front of him, and many celebrants were following him in sitting and repeating movements.
The yellow paper burned fiercely in the copper furnace.
Shen Mingyu, the chief official of the temple, was willing to sit next to Zhang Yi and assist him in casting spells.
The firelight illuminated the dark night, and soon the light turned green.
Zhao Xing and Xia Jing stood behind Zhang Yi.
Both of them had very high powers of bright eyes, and they could see that the surrounding area was full of ghosts. Although it still looked like an empty space, it was actually an army of ghosts.
If ordinary people stayed in this open space, they would soon be eroded by the excessive Yin Qi, leading to exhaustion of Qi and blood in the physical body.
After a while, the practice is completed.
Zhang Yi walked down from the altar and asked, "Why are you here?"
"I see you're about to finish work, come and take a look." Xia Jing smiled and said, "It's very efficient, Brother Zhang. You can dig through a hundred-meter-high mountain in ten days."
Zhang Yi said helplessly: "Zhao Xing wants to dig? I never thought that one day I would use the ghost to move bricks."
"If they knew that I would do this kind of thing after graduating from Yuanyin Temple, my classmates in the Taoist Temple would laugh me to death."
Zhao Xing patted Zhang Yi on the shoulder. He knew that this man entered the army after graduating from a Taoist academy. As soon as he entered the army, he came to Shiyang Cave for training. He was still a little unaccustomed to this kind of thing.
"Being an official is not shameful. One day, Brother Zhang, you will return home rich and honorable, and visit the Taoist temple. Who will dare to say anything about you? The beauties of the past will definitely look at you differently. Those who laugh at you will eventually bow to you.
Under my climbing boots, I respectfully call you Mr. Zhang!" Zhao Xing habitually described the bright future to Zhang Yi.
Shen Mingyu, who was standing next to him, looked at Zhang Yi's agitated expression and called him an expert. He, the nominal chief officer, wanted to follow Zhao Xing.
"By the way, how long can these ghost warriors last?" Zhao Xing asked, "Can it be completed tomorrow?"
"Yes," Zhang Yi said, "but there are not many incense mediums left in the temple. We can support these ghost warriors for half a month at most."
"Half a month." Zhao Xing groped his chin, "Can these ghost warriors do anything else? For example, fight."
"No." Zhang Yi shook his head and said, "The rules of these ghost warriors are only to use money to do things, not to sacrifice their lives."
"If you don't give me money, it won't be considered a sale."
Xia Jing: "..."
Zhang Yi: "???"
Zhao Xing looked at Shen Mingyu and said, "You can ask Mr. Shen to see if it works."
