There are two large rivers in Orange County.
One is the Jiuzhou River, officially defined as the mother river of Orange County.
The other is the Youth Canal, which was dug manually after cutting off the Jiuzhou River and building the Baihe Reservoir.
The Nanlei Peninsula has been a drought-stricken area since ancient times. The words "Three Thunders and Severe Droughts, Thousands of Miles of Bare Land, and People Living with Tree Barks" have appeared more than once in history books.
A single stroke of history cannot explain the hardships faced by the people of the peninsula.
In those years, bloodshed and bloody fights between villages often occurred in order to compete for water sources.
Until 1958.
The Chuchuan Prefectural Committee decided to dig out a river artificially.
That is to cut off the Jiuzhou River in the middle, build a very large reservoir, and then build the matching main canal and diversion channel of the Youth Canal to completely eradicate the drought on the peninsula!
In an era that lacked mechanization, this decision meant investing huge amounts of manpower and material resources.
However, when the news spread and mass mobilization was carried out in various places, the enthusiasm of the majority of young people to sign up and participate was beyond anyone's imagination.
Many people rushed to Baihe Village with a hoe, a little food, and a bed board.
The people of the peninsula have been suffering from drought for a long time!
That year, 160,000 people devoted themselves to the construction of the reservoir.
That year, more than 300,000 young people participated in digging the canal.
This was 300,000 people in the late 1950s, accounting for 70% of the total young labor force in several counties at that time, so it was named Youth Canal.
It is said that the earth dug out of the 74-kilometer Youth Canal can pave a one-meter-wide road that would circle the planet 16 times. After completion, the water power along the river will benefit more than 2 million acres of farmland.
…
"have gratitude."
Chen Jingle stood on the reservoir dam, looking at the Baihe Reservoir below, which was filled with microwaves in the night.
He already understood his opportunity.
Compared to the Jiuzhou River, he has a deeper affection for this canal, because he really grew up drinking the water from the canal.
The decision has been made in my heart.
While exhaling a breath, he turned around and jumped into the river.
In an instant, a huge dragon head made of water emerged from the water. Except that it was not flesh and blood, its appearance was no different from the traditional dragon.
The underwater dragon's body swayed faintly.
Chen Jingle sat in the dragon's mouth, and the dragon's head moved forward rapidly.
Thirty-six Tiangang Methods——
Overwhelming!
Those big fish weighing hundreds of kilograms that have lived in the canal for decades suddenly seemed to smell some special smell and surfaced one after another.
Hua la la, the river surface hundreds of meters away seemed to be boiling.
Thousands of fish make a pilgrimage!
In the age of the gods, this was a ritual only performed by the river god when he was on patrol.
go ahead!
Chen Jingle drove the dragon head and took the lead in crossing the first canal bridge, running all the way. A school of big fish followed closely behind.
This is really a galloping river, with the river surging and thousands of fish leaping. Wherever he passed, the river water behind him was washed away.
At this moment, this mother river reveals her most gentle and beautiful side.
Shijiao Town, Hechun Town, Shicheng Town...
The leader moved along the canal and passed through towns.
At this time, residents on both sides of the Taiwan Strait have basically entered their rest time, so although the noise is not small, not many people notice it.
Even if someone accidentally saw it, they would only think it was a speedboat. After all, there were only stars and no moon tonight. Without searchlights, visibility at night was limited.
…
Lin Pei went out for night fishing at 9pm tonight as usual.
His home is not far from the canal, and he often goes out fishing late at night and then returns home at three or four o'clock. If you're lucky, you can get three or five of them. If you're not lucky, just pick up a handful of weeds from the river and take them away.
Anyway, the air force cannot be the air force.
The only regret is that except for a large grass carp over 10 pounds in my novice stage, I have never caught such a big fish again.
I heard people say that there is a giant object over one meter long under the canal, but I don’t know whether it is true or not.
But I think it's probably true.
After all, the canal has been built for so many years, and I have never heard of any fishing done after it was cut off. I don’t know what the fish hidden at the bottom of the river have become.
“It would be great if I could catch a giant fish weighing more than 100 kilograms.”
Lin Pei smacked his lips.
Of course, it’s just talk. If his fishing rod can lift 20 kilograms, it’s pretty good.
I was about to open the short video to see if there was a new sister cub today, when I suddenly heard a splashing sound, and I frowned and stood up.
"WTF?!"
Mainly because he had just made a nest and was afraid that the fish would be scared away.
Then……
He saw the most unforgettable scene in his life!
I saw a dragon's head half-surfaced from the water, moving forward quickly, followed by a group of big fish over one meter in length, some even close to two meters!
When the dragon head passed by, countless small fish jumped out of the water, their scales flashing.
That's why he heard the crashing sound.
Lin Pei was stunned.
But he is uneducated and can travel the world with just one word.
At this moment, I really don't know how to describe my mood, I can only look at the scene in front of me stupidly. By the time he reacted, the dragon's head had already passed his position and was going downstream along the canal.
He suddenly woke up.
It was the first time that I dropped my beloved fishing rod so resolutely, took out my mobile phone, and chased after him to take pictures along the way.
Holy crap, crap, crap!
And caught a stupid fish!
Just like this, can he be praised by labor and management for the rest of his life?
Much better than Zhang San next door who caught a floating corpse in the middle of the night!
Even in the water, the speed of the leader was at least over 60 kilometers. Lin Pei definitely couldn't keep chasing, so he only took a short shot.
However, this small cut is enough.
He immediately sent it to the old local fishing group. With his status as a dog manager, he was the owner of Aite.
"It's a shame to meet a floating corpse, but it's a shame for labor and management to meet a dragon!
"
Countless people exploded instantly.
"What the hell, I was chatting with my sister, and all of Aite suddenly came."
"I didn't mean to say that your video is too fake, right?"
"Brother, you must believe in science. There are no dragons in this world. If there were, they would have been eaten to extinction."
"If this is true, I will eat shit on live broadcast and eat two kilograms!"
Lin Pei: "Then you can start performing. If I cheat, I will be in the Air Force when I fish in the future!"
Damn, so cruel?
Seeing this sentence, those who questioned immediately hesitated.
What on earth could make a fisherman swear such a poisonous oath?
If the video is real, something is seriously wrong!
Lin Pei posted the video to every group, and also posted it to every social network platform he usually hangs out on.
Without him, I just want to show off, and then I want to share to make trouble.
Of those who saw the video, some were curious, some were disdainful, and few truly believed it.
Then……
That night, all his accounts were blocked for spreading bad information on the Internet.
The video has also been harmonized, and only some people downloaded and saved it immediately so that it was not deleted.
…
"Director, look!"
When the staff came to Cai Quan with the video that Lin Pei had uploaded to the Internet, after watching it, his eyes suddenly went dark.
Other people on duty at night also came over and were amazed after watching the video.
Turtle, the world is changing so fast. People like them can hardly keep up, let alone ordinary people.
"Delete it! Delete it quickly!"
Cai Quan almost gritted his teeth and shouted: "Block his account too! Anyone who dares to forward it will be blocked!"
Damn it, after three years of being the director of this wretched place, my hair was not as white as those in the past three months!
Who can tell him what's going on with him? !
Why did a dragon even appear?
He immediately thought of the mysterious existence, but subconsciously rejected it: "The other party shouldn't have the ability to control water... right?"
Just the ability to control the Realm Lord Temple is enough to defy the heavens.
If there is another one to control the major waters.
Who else can stop it?
Otherwise...could it be that the other party is actually a dragon?
Then the headquarters shouldn't think about how to deal with them. It's better to start thinking about what job titles to assign to people now.
The guardian beast? The dragon that governs the country?
If it doesn't work, Qiu Yong, please give up your position as the talker at the headquarters!
…
"what sound?"
Li Chao, the contractor, was about to go to sleep when he suddenly heard the sound of water rushing outside and suddenly panicked.
"Is there something wrong with the newly completed bridge?"
Get up quickly!
Then I saw a scene I will never forget.
A huge dragon head made of water, half-floating on the water, rolled up huge waves, carrying fish with it, and destroyed the earth dam that was originally scheduled to be completed by the leader in person three days later.
A large amount of river water poured in, passed through the bottom of the bridge, and then broke through the earthen dam on the other side.
At this moment, the Youth Canal and Nandu River are officially connected!
At the moment of connection, Chen Jingle felt that the power of Fang Tiandi on his body had increased again!
Longtou entered the Nandu River section and continued to move forward.
Li Chao stood on the bridge, stunned.
It wasn't until the giant dragon disappeared from sight that he came back to his senses and looked behind him at the workers who had also heard the noise and ran out. They were also stunned when they saw the scene just now.
"Am I right? Is that a dragon?"
The workers nodded subconsciously.
The people of Daxia are very familiar with the image of dragon, even if it is just a fictitious creature.
But just now, they saw a real dragon! Although it is made of water, it is indeed a dragon!
Could it be that you are dreaming?
Li Chao pinched himself so hard that the fat on his face twisted in pain.
"It doesn't look like a dream."
Turtle, I feel like things are going to change.
It's a pity that the scene just now was not filmed, otherwise I wouldn't have to worry about others not believing it if I told it.
Li Chao expressed deep regret for this.
That night, both the workers who saw the water dragon and those who didn't saw it couldn't sleep.
…
Enter the Haikang section of the Nandu River.
Every time Chen Jingle moved forward, the realm master temples behind him in the Haikang territory would be lit up and occupied.
The dragon's momentum became more and more obvious.
After he passed those sections of the river that were in disrepair, the silt at the bottom of the river became the most fertile fertilizer for the farmland on both sides.
Chengyue Town, Kelu Town, Haikang City...
Then we came to the vicinity of Nanlan Village, which we had visited before, passed through Shuangxikou at the end, and successfully entered the sea.
The fish in the clear water behind him stopped and came out of the water one after another to show respect.
The dragon head took Chen Jingle forward alone. At this moment, the dragon entered the sea!
boom!
There was a sudden thunder between heaven and earth.
From the moment he stepped into the sea, Chen Jinngle felt that he had a closer connection with the more than 15,000 realm master temples in Chuchuan Mansion that he controlled, as well as the entire Chuchuan area!
Even if there are still Jingzhu temples in Nanlei and Meijiang areas that have not been occupied, their current strength is no less than that of the Fucheng Emperor in the old days!
The water dragon dived under the sea, then suddenly jumped into the air, standing proudly above the sea.
Today, if the dragon enters the sea, he may not be able to climb to the top of Kunlun.
At this moment, Chen Jingle was full of pride, and at the same time, he was even more curious about this world.
He wants to explore, discover, and pursue.
To understand why the eternal gods left this land, and why they suddenly revived among the many strange things in the world?
There are too many mysteries waiting for him to reveal them one by one.
He believes that as long as he works step by step and steadily improves his strength, he will eventually find the answer one day!
