Chapter 59 Petrified Turtle
Standing on the sand and watching the excavator keep digging the soil and the lake gradually take shape, Cai Hongming had a very delicate feeling, as if he was watching his children grow up.
Perhaps this is the sense of accomplishment of owning one's own career.
The lake he dug finally had at least dozens of acres, which occupied a certain number of them in the desert he bought. However, without such a large lake to store water, it would never be possible to water such a large piece of land. Even with such a lake, he was still worried about whether the water was enough in the drought season.
The sandy land by the lake was shoveled away by a forklift, revealing the fertile soil below.
This land was not originally a desert, but because it was drought, rainy and water-deficient, and no one ploughed, it gradually became deserted. Later, it was covered with yellow sand rolled by sandstorms and turned into a desert land. Now shovel the sand on it, put the dug out lake mud on it, and level it a little next year. This is a good piece of land that can be cultivated.
According to the old people in the village, there was originally a huge lake here before, so the ancestors of Qilian Village took root here.
But later, I don’t know why, but the lake water has decreased year by year, and finally nothing has become what it is now.
When Cai Hongming dug the lake, he dug according to the legendary lake location. Facts have proved that there was really a lake here before, because the more you dig, the more fertile the soil, and fish bones, shells, dead branches and other things appeared.
The excavator digs down day by day, and the deeper it gets, the lake mud dug becomes more and more fatter.
Cai Hongming went to see the dug out lake mud, and felt that using this lake mud to grow things, no matter what it planted, it would definitely bring a good harvest.
As he was digging, an excavator suddenly dug something. The excavator thought it was a stone, so he pushed the stone to the lake with an excavator. Unexpectedly, after pushing the stone away, water suddenly emerged from below. Cai Hongming looked at it, and was so excited that he ran down and picked up a shovel and dug it up to the place where the water was pouring out. After digging a few times, the water flow became much larger. In just a while, a small puddle formed at the spring.
Cai Hongming's mouth was so happy that he cracked his mouth.
In the desert, water is undoubtedly gold and life. With this spring, he no longer has to worry about no water available in this land. It seems that the lake was not without water in the past, but the spring was blocked by stones and no longer flowed out, so it slowly dried up.
When he walked ashore, he looked at the culprit who suppressed the spring and found that this thing seemed to be a stone.
So he ran to the well and brought a bucket of water to wash it. He suddenly realized that the so-called stone actually looked a bit like a turtle shell.
This made him very curious, so he asked the excavator to hook the stone that looked like a turtle shell to the well and then clean it.
After washing for a long time, the so-called stone finally revealed its entire face, like a turtle. The turtle looks like a rock, extremely hard, and can't stab it in no matter how hard it is. It seems that it is an old turtle that has been dead and petrified. This turtle is about two meters long. If it is alive, it should be the largest turtle in the world. It's a pity that it died, which is really a pity.
Cai Hongming first put it next to the well, and after the artificial lake is dug, he will build a high platform and place it by the lake for viewing. It is a landmark. In the future, the artificial lake can be called the Divine Turtle Lake.
The excavator dug the turtle very deep. Cai Hongming saw that it was almost the same, so he asked them to stop and settle their wages and leave.
In fact, he still has many ideas, such as asking the forklift to push a straight road from outside to Qilian Village. Now he has to go around the foot of the mountain to get here. It undoubtedly saves a lot of time to push a road. Then he digs out terraces on the hillside surrounded by cement columns to grow grass and feed livestock. But all these cost money. He has little money left now, and he will have to plant trees and grass next year, so he can't turn over his capital, so he can only wait until he has money before doing it.
You have to take steps one by one, so as not to get too big to pull the balls. The words of our ancestors make some sense.
The divine turtle lake was dug, and Cai Hongming had nothing to do in Qilian Village, so he planned to go back to the town tomorrow, rest for a while, and then go back to his hometown in southern Fujian.
The weather is getting colder every day, and it is already colder to minus 700 degrees Celsius at night. If he hadn't been used to the climate here with down jackets to protect himself, he might have been frozen to death.
Because he was leaving tomorrow, he had a good meal with a few old men and uncle silly at night. Hachimo suggested that he slaughter the big rooster he forgot to take back that time, but he seriously refused. Just kidding, he kept this big rooster for experimentation, how could he eat it?
Hachiko is good at everything, but he is jealous when he sees something good.
The last time the antlers were like this, but now I see the big rooster still. It seems that I must bring the big rooster with me when I go back this time, otherwise I will be harmed by him sooner or later.
After dinner, he chatted with the old man for a few words, Cai Hongming went back to his house. Thinking that he had not entered the broken cave world in the jade tripod for a long time, he locked the door and fled in.
Um...
As soon as he entered the broken cave and blessed land in the jade tripod, Cai Hongming found something was wrong and felt that the place seemed to have become larger. The space inside was about ten meters, but now it has become nearly twenty meters. What's going on? Cai Hongming was puzzled. Especially the huge rock in the middle, the mottled and dry surface of the past actually became warm and smooth, like jade, which was really strange.
He couldn't believe everything in front of him, so he reached out and touched the huge rock. The place he started was as gentle as water and as delicate as a woman's skin. Is this still the stone that was so vicissitudes before?
As he was asked, a ray of light suddenly burst out from the huge rock and fled into his eyebrows.
In an instant, the pictures were reflected in my mind, and it was the scene of the jade tripod absorbing milky white spring water in the Buddhist temple that day. As the picture was transmitted, the milky white spring water was actually the earth marrow, which is the essence of the land around the Buddhist temple, which was equivalent to a hundred times the jade toad liquid. Although it was absorbed for a while, it was enough to recover the huge rocks and could still overflow a little to absorb the broken cave world.
The huge rock is restored. In the future, the jade toad liquid formed by the jade tripod condenses the essence of the bright moon, and it will no longer need to be distributed to the huge rock. It can be directly used to restore the blessings of the cave.
Although the Cave Heaven and Blessings cannot restore the whole picture, as the spiritual energy increases, it will also change. As long as the spiritual energy is sufficient, the space can become larger or change out of mountains, stones, trees, flowers and plants.
After receiving the message from the huge stone, Cai Hongming realized that it was like this. No wonder the broken cave in the jade tripod changed so much. But he didn't expect that so many things happened that moment when he was illuminated by the colorful gems that day. It seems that you have to be careful in everything you do in the future.
After seeing the huge stone, he turned to the green Ganoderma lucidum next to him.
The green Ganoderma lucidum has also benefited from the spiritual regaining its huge stone. Thanks to the help of the huge stone absorbing the earth's marrow, it has grown to his knees. The shank handle is thick and the linden can be held in a hug. It is about half a meter, covered with cloud patterns, and the color changes from green to jasper. Today, the green Ganoderma lucidum should be called Jade Ganoderma lucidum.
The jasper Ganoderma lucidum cover stretches out, just like a painted umbrella covering the small green Ganoderma lucidum below.
Xiaoqing Ganoderma lucidum grows very fast, from the time it just pops up to the length of the little finger now, it can be said to be very fierce. If you give it a while, you might be able to use it as a medicine.
After seeing Ganoderma lucidum, Cai Hongming came to the purple gourd planted on the side. He originally wanted to plant the purple gourd in his backyard, but after discovering the effect of the gourd wine in the purple gourd, he didn't dare to do it. If such a magical thing is planted outside and picked by someone, it would be called "Da Tiantian should not be effective."
Suddenly, he was surprised to find that a few small purple flowers bloomed on the purple gourd vine, which seemed to be growing gourds. Cai Hongming was happy to see it. After discovering the effects of gourd wine, he wanted it to grow more.
