NCCnovel Chapter 264 Filling the Underground Passage
Chapter 264 Filling the Underground Passage
Tian Xiaoxiao told Nangong Rui what happened in the underground of Huadu and asked him to eat quickly as they would go and check it out later.
Nangong Rui asked Tian Xiaoxiao to help look after Wang Maocai and his children.
Tian Xiaoxiao took a quick look and felt sympathy.
Let Ade go to the kitchen to help prepare rice soup.
When the rice soup was served, Tian Xiaoxiao put a pill into the soup and let it melt, then stirred it evenly.
It was divided equally among several members of the Wang family.
After drinking the rice soup, the Wang family members regained their vitality visibly.
Tian Xiaoxiao asked for two separate rooms for the Wang family and arranged for them to rest.
After doing all this, Nangong Rui finished his meal.
Without even a moment's rest, Nangong Rui was thinking about setting out to see what was going on in Huadu.
Tian Xiaoxiao originally planned to come back and rest for a while, but she wanted to go back to Shengjing. It would be nice to finish the things in Huadu as soon as possible so that she could go home earlier.
Ruozhu and Ade were left to look after the Tian family, while the others went with Tian Xiaoxiao to a wooden tower in the center of Huadu City.
Daju: [Can we go down from here? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Reinforce this place, and then have Nangong Rui evacuate the people quickly. We can't stay here for long. In ten days at most, the whole city will collapse.]
Daju: [The entire Huadu City is being relocated? It would take Nangong Rui a long time to finish the move, let alone ten days. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [There is another way, which is to block all the underground passages. ]
Daju: [Use stones? Use mud? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Use concrete. But Ming Ningguo doesn’t have it.]
Daju: [What about Tangyin? Tangyin has been in the West for so many years, will she be able to make it? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [If you hadn’t told me, I would have forgotten about it. But it takes time to make it! ]
Daju: [As far as I know, Tangyin is indeed researching something called cement recently. Is it the concrete you mentioned? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Really? That's fine. No, this requires a lot of cement!]
Daju: [How long do you have to hide your magic weapon? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Which artifact? ]
Daju: [A cornucopia! ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Hmm? Cornucopia?]
Tian Xiaoxiao then remembered the bell-like thing she got when she first saw Yiyou Palace in the Imperial Garden.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. As long as Tangyin has the finished cement product, can I put it in the cornucopia? ]
Daju: [Yes, the cornucopia can produce unlimited cement.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It's against the will of heaven! ]
Daju: [This treasure bowl has a lifespan. It only has three uses left in your hands. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It’s good that we can help this time. Otherwise, who will save the lives of 300,000 people in Huadu? ]
"Mother, I'm leaving for a while. Please seal this place. Your Highness, please send someone to the nearby mountains to fetch rocks for crushing.
Big Brother, Second Brother, Sister Hongyu, you guys can also help get the stones, use your storage rings to put them in this place. I'll go find Tang Yin.
Came back soon. "
Tian Xiaoxiao rushed out like lightning. When Tang Yin saw Tian Xiaoxiao, she almost couldn't recognize her.
The two chatted for a while, and Tian Xiaoxiao explained her purpose. Shu Tangyin told her that the cement was still being tested and there was no guarantee of success.
Shu Tangyin took Tian Xiaoxiao to visit her small workshop.
In her previous life, Tian Xiaoxiao knew nothing about cement, let alone how to produce it.
So I can only rely on Shu Tangyin.
Seeing the craftsmen testing the strength of the cement, Tian Xiaoxiao felt that it was already infinitely close to modern cement.
He asked Tang Yin for a small bowl, gave her two pills, and returned to the foot of the wooden tower like the wind.
Nangong Rui went to collect stones himself, and when Tian Xiaoxiao came back, a lot of stones had been collected.
In order to prevent the people from panicking, several people went to a place thousands of miles away, smashed an entire mountain into pieces, and moved it back.
The small animals on the mountain lost their home in an instant.
After Tian Xiaoxiao found out, she had no choice but to go back to the ruins of the mountain and use the divine bones to grow trees, giving the little animals a forest.
We have cement and stones, but we lack river sand.
There is a river in Huadu, and the riverbed is all sand.
Tian Xiaoxiao thought of a way to get the sand quickly and let the people earn real money. She bought river sand in the name of Nangong Rui.
There is strength in numbers. Within three days, the open space in front of the wooden tower was filled with river sand.
There was also a steady flow of people sending it.
Three nights later, Tian Xiaoxiao organized people to start watering the plants.
Deng Hongyu is responsible for water supply.
Nangong Rui was also in the team, helping to stir.
After stirring it, Tian Xiaoxiao used the divine bone to smash the ground.
Countless holes of different sizes were revealed.
Cement, mixed with gravel and river sand, was poured into the tunnels.
Tian Xiaoxiao and Tian Xiwu helped clear the concrete under the tunnel to prevent it from blocking the passage.
During the day, the people of Huadu saw this scene and were confused.
Enthusiastic people came forward to ask, and Nangong Rui patiently explained.
Someone else saw Tian Xiaoxiao smashing holes continuously, and everyone then realized that Nangong Rui was saving them.
Someone beat a gong, gathering all the young and middle-aged men in the city to join Tian Xiaoxiao and his team.
At this time, the people did not take a penny, and some even regretted having taken the money for dredging river sand.
Nangong Rui felt that the descendants of this ancient tribe still inherited the simple and kind character of their ancestors, and he was extremely grateful.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Such an excellent tribe was also judged by others with a mean heart. It seems that emperors are all petty-minded.]
Daju: [That's right. I hope Nangong Rui won't do such a thing as killing the dog after the rabbit dies.]
Nangong Rui: The melon exploded on my head again? I didn’t say anything!
Tian Xiaoxiao: [If he dares to do such a mean thing, I will be the first to kill him.]
Daju: [An emperor like this won’t stay in office for long. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [That’s not necessarily true. Good people don’t live long, but evil people live for thousands of years.]
Daju: [We have been busy for several days. When will all the tunnels be sealed? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It will take two more days. I will go check the work I did a few days ago to see if it has solidified.]
Daju: [Is this thing really that useful? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [You will understand if you try to touch it.]
Daju: [Some Westerners have technical abilities, which is really scary. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Ming Ning country must also learn from the West, otherwise it will fall behind and be beaten. ]
Daju: [I really want to go and see it. ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [After finishing what we are doing, let’s go to Xiyang to eat some melons. ]
Daju: [This is possible. ]
Big Orange: [After a few days, the concrete became as solid as stone.] Big Orange scratched the ground with his front paws, but found that it was motionless.
Tian Xiaoxiao: [That’s not true. In my time, reinforced concrete could be used to build skyscrapers that would reach the sky and not collapse.]
Daju: [What a magical thing! There is no such technology in the heavens.]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [It’s different. Immortal arts belong to divine power. Things like cement can only be made through hard work, which requires countless experiments.]
Daju: [It seems that the news of our tunnel filling has spread to Dongchang. 】
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Don't be afraid, if one comes, kill one, if two come, kill a pair. Dongchang State bullies people like this, let him pay.]
Daju: [You are also a warmonger now! ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Because I have absolute strength.]
Daju: [There are several spies in Huadu who are packing up their belongings and preparing to escape. Shall we catch them? ]
Tian Xiaoxiao: [Okay, let Nangong Rui take care of this.]
