Ling Xuanxin still did not speak, but his gaze followed her finger and looked into the distance.
"In that forest in the valley, there is a ravine. Although I didn't personally see it, if the map is correct, as long as I lead water to that ravine, I will definitely preserve the city."
Ling Tian Qing felt that the wind was getting stronger, like a typhoon landing, blowing so hard that she had no choice but to grab onto Ling Xin's belt to stabilize herself, saying in a loud voice.
Ling Xueran suddenly walked to her other side, blocked the wind for her, reached out to grab her wrist, and coldly said: "You think a dam can be blown up easily? Even if you add up all the gunpowder in this city, it might not necessarily be as powerful as Mo Yang's palm strike. "
He used the word "gunpowder".
The Heavenly Court had no gunpowder, only the Fire Ravens.
The Fire Ravens were a type of bird that could shoot out flames easily. Later on, someone came up with something similar to the Fire Ravens, which could shoot out sparks of different sizes. It was called fireworks.
However, this kind of thing was not stable, and it often caused injuries to adults and children, so it was banned by the heavens.
The power of the gunpowder that Ling Qing had prepared was great, but the craftsmen were still researching stability. Without mass production, it was impossible to transfer the gunpowder and blow up the dam.
"If you trust me, send someone to take away the scattered villagers who might be living outside the city gate first. Make sure that no one is taken away innocently by the flood when the dike is blown up." Seeing that he did not refute him, Ling Qing immediately said, "Send ten of your men to get the materials that I want. Tomorrow, I will go and blow up the dike."
"You?" Ling Chen's eyes flashed as if reflecting the lightning in the distance.
Ling Tian Qing nodded seriously, "Yes, I am."
High on the dike, the young Son of Heaven had a frosty look on his face. His robe fluttered in the wind, as if a god had descended to the mortal world.
As for the baby-faced attendant, he had delicate features and a smile that was as bright as the sun. His eyes, however, were incomparably firm, carrying a trace of pity for the common people.
Ling Qing was feeling pity.
In such a backward society, regardless of whether it was the medical conditions or supplies, they could not be rescued in time after the floods. Many people could have survived, but they still died from illness and pain.
She was making a list to get the soldiers to get what she needed.
Your Majesty, just now, I took a look around. The grain merchants and medicine stores are unable to make a fortune now, "Ling Qing followed beside Ling Xuejian as she inspected the situation in the city. Because the wind was too strong, she had no choice but to whisper into his ear and said," Your Majesty, please give the order for the rice stores in the entire city to be filled with porridge, the medicine stores to be treated for free, and the doctors to be treated for free.
Ling Xuanxin swept a glance at her.
The girl's hair was a bit messy from the strong wind and her clothes were mostly wet. However, her face was still full of hope and optimism. It was incompatible with the tragic wails of the victims.
It was as if, no matter what adversity she faced, she would never give up on someone she hoped for.
Just like the Heaven's Clear Flower, even if it withered and met with water, it would once again bloom.
Since she did not have any internal energy to transmit her voice, she could only get close to him and speak. She always did not notice that she was too close to him.
"You are the king. As long as it is an imperial edict, no one will dare to play any tricks. Those evil merchants will definitely admit defeat." Ling Tian Qing added, flattering the leader.
"Admit defeat? You make This King sound like an evil merchant. " Ling Xuanxin frowned, and snorted in a noncommittal manner.
Ling Tian Qing was initially worried that Tyrant would not accept the "women cannot negotiate" principle, but he did not expect Tyrant to break the rule when he was facing his people screaming.
However, she didn't know that the words "the imperial harem doesn't negotiate politics" were spoken to the empress dowager because he was unhappy, so those words had been used to suppress the empress dowager.
The rule Ling Xian came across was that he would do as he pleased.
Because he was a king.
Thus, he had the ability to do so.
"Your Majesty, how could you possibly be a profiteer? "You are a scoundrel!" Ling Tian did not pay attention and slipped his lips.
"Say it again." Ling Xuanxuan seemed to have not heard him clearly in the storm.
His voice had always been neither loud nor low, but from the wind and rain, it was clearly heard by Ling Tian.
"Hahaha, Your Majesty, look at my wet clothes … "I'll go back to my house to change my clothes, and study the bomb while I'm at it …" Ling Tianqing laughed and slipped away.
This scoundrel was a big bear that only knew how to rape women!
However, seeing that he still cared about the lives of her people, Ling Tianqing helped him generously this time.
Returning to the prefectural courtyard, Ling Tianqing sat in her room and worked out a formula. She calculated how much explosive power would be needed to blow up the dam outside the city gate.
One of the benefits of the ancient people was that it was real.
No matter what he did, it was all real, and he rarely reduced the amount of work he did.
The original embankments were all of the finest white stone, and the hardness of the white stone was even greater than that of the cement steel bars.
If it was all built from white stone, Ling Qing did not have to worry about the city being swept away by the flood.
Because right now, Ling Xiang had met with the soldiers in command, the materials needed to strengthen the dam were all ordinary stones, there was no time to find the white stones, and without the blind reinforcement of the mechanical foundation, there was no way to stop the greater flood.
There was a small piece of white stone beside Ling Qing's hand. Without any advanced apparatus, she could only use the knowledge and experience she had accumulated to test the density of the white stone.
Green Shadow brought Lord Grim to the medicine store to busy themselves. On the other hand, Red Tassel led the troops out of the city, and after the embankment was moved away, the scattered villagers that might be swept away by the flood might also come back.
Mo Yang was still his personal bodyguard. At a time like this, the more he needed to protect …
Ling Xuanxin would also be here soon. She watched as the girl busied herself, carefully preparing the lime and nitrate and some seemingly useless metal powder that she had collected from the soldiers.
Her expression was extremely serious and meticulous, something Ling Xinyi had never seen before.
There was a glass of water in front of him, it was water from a transparent bone china cup, with wax paper floating on it. Ling Tianqing carefully powdered the wax paper, as if weighing it in this way rather than using a scale.
For the first time, Ling Lingzhi's palms broke out in a cold sweat. This was because that little girl's focused and serious gaze made him have a strange feeling — she was a Heaven Flying Immortal.
Back then, when she heard Lord Grim calling her "Little Fairy", Ling Zui had always felt that she was a demonic girl.
At this time, Ling Tianqing, who was serious, focused, and did not reveal a smile that would make people jealous, let him clearly feel that she was not a girl from the heavens.
The heavens would never have such a woman.
The biggest task of the ladies of the Sky Dynasty was to pass on their generations. He had never seen a woman who was' working '. Her face was shining with such wisdom.
Right, wisdom.
It was as if she possessed a mysterious power that they did not know and could do things that they could not imagine.
In her eyes, there was also a spiritual beauty that could not be reached by the ladies of this world. It was as if she was living in an unknown world.
Ling Xuanxin became more and more convinced that this was fate.
This was the phoenix body given to him by heaven for pity and loneliness.
He appeared out of nowhere, and from another space, not far from a million li, he arrived at his side.
Thinking like this, Ling Xi couldn't help but have a sweet feeling in his heart.
He placed a mixture of medicinal powder and extremely rare gunpowder in the middle of a few pieces of white stone. Pressing two pieces of white stone on top of it was like a miniature dam. Ling Qing's every movement carried the meticulousness and meticulousness of a scientist.
Ling Tian Qing then raised her head and looked at the man who was staring at her. Taking a deep breath, she turned the easily ignited branch of the Tong into powder and placed it in the middle of the white stone.
She lit the fire and quickly retreated, looking for a place to hide.
Un, I'll just hide behind Tyrant...
'Bang! 'A cracking sound could be heard. Ling Qing had not even hidden well when she was carried by the man into the door, protecting her tightly.
Ling Jingjing's face turned dark. Just now, the stone had almost injured her, and this stupid woman didn't have the ability to protect herself.
Ling Qing immediately stuck his head out and looked at the burn marks on the table. He waved his hands and smiled, "Yeah!" "It's a success!"
At this moment, she was laughing impudently with a face brimming with the joy of success, completely different from her previous serious state. She was more like a little demoness who was causing trouble in the palace without restraint.
Ling Xuanxuan released her and let out a light sigh. He looked at Mo Yang, who had been standing at the doorway the entire time.
"Mo Yang, can your sword split open the white stone?" Ling Tian Qing asked Mo Yang after he finished his excitement.
"It should be possible." Mo Yang nodded. It was just that his sword was unable to cut down a dam that was dozens of feet wide. Even if he were to die from exhaustion, if a flood were to erupt, he could still die valiantly.
He hadn't even married his wife and hadn't even seen the young prince. How could he possibly lose his life in battle?!
"Great, you just have to dig a hole for me." Ling Tian Qing immediately said smilingly, "Not big, just 5 metres deep."
A five meter deep hole in the white rock? Mo Yang's face almost twitched. Indeed … It wasn't big at all!
"Yes." The cold-looking guard took a deep breath. In fact, he really wanted to ask, "Little master, are you going to bury this subordinate?"
When Hong Ying led a large group of villagers to the city gate, he saw that on the dike in the distance, a sharp sword light shone and his big brother was struggling against the indestructible white stone.
He gestured for the soldiers to bring the villagers back to the city first and turned his horse, heading towards the dam: "Big brother, are you training your sword or digging a grave? You don't need to bury yourself so quickly, do you? "
Mo Yang turned his head and glared fiercely at the red tassel, continuing to dig.
This was the most ridiculous and depressing order he had ever received in his life.
Ling Tianqing was at the other side of the dike, carefully measuring every inch of the dike with her carpentry.
Wenren XiaoKe held up an umbrella for her, Bi Yao held up an umbrella for her, and Bi Yun held onto a piece of paper and ink. The four young girls formed a beautiful scene on the dike.
However, Ling Tianqing was still dressed as a waiter.
Wenren Chuchu couldn't understand the numbers and the abcα β Omega when she looked at the number. She felt that it was very mysterious. Was this some kind of incantation?
