Chapter 1179 Somewhat Powerless (Third Update)
The three of them continued their inspection and went to Yujia Village and Zhengjia Village around Changping Village.
Everything as far as the eye can see is water. In a few areas with higher ground, large and small tents are set up, housing villagers seeking refuge from disasters.
Mu Zichuan, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang are now celebrities in the area.
Accompanied by Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang, Mu Zichuan went ashore and visited these disaster-stricken tents.
Sitting among the villagers, he patiently asked them about the disaster.
Then, give comfort and encouragement.
The villagers were very grateful to the Muju people sent to assist in the disaster relief and watched the three people leave.
After dinner, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang came to the guest room where Mu Zichuan lived.
I found Mu Zichuan sitting at the desk, sometimes writing furiously, sometimes leaning on the back of the chair.
Staring at the dancing candlelight in front of him, he frowned and his face was solemn.
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other.
Yang Ruoqing then went straight to the desk.
"Why do you look like this? Aren't you still a hundred times more confident when you encourage everyone during the day?"
She tilted her head and asked a little surprised.
Muzichuan raised his eyes, saw the two people coming in, and quickly came to his senses.
He sat up straight, frowned and said: "I am sorting out the disaster information that I inspected during the day, and I want to develop a reasonable water control strategy."
However, In the process of researching strategies, he encountered many difficult problems that he had never encountered before.
"Qing'er, you and Tang Yazi are not outsiders, and I'm not afraid of your jokes."
Mu Zichuan continued.
"I find that the books I read from the sages are sometimes a little powerless when it comes to solving these specific problems."
"I don't know if it's because I'm not good at studying, or I'm just stupid. When I draft a thorough water control strategy, I I’ve been thinking about it for two hours but still can’t do it!”
He sighed, with a look of frustration on his face.
Seeing Mu Zichuan's appearance, Yang Ruoqing was so smart that she understood everything immediately.
She pulled a stool over and sat down across from the desk.
He crossed his elbows and rested them on the edge of the desk, leaned forward slightly, and gave him a smile.
"What you see on paper is ultimately shallow, but you must practice it. I can understand your feelings." She said.
Hearing this, Mu Zichuan opened his eyes in shock.
"Qing'er, you actually spoke it well? Do you even know these two lines of poetry?" he asked.
Yang Ruoqing pursed her lips and smiled.
Over there, Luo Fengtang also came over and stood next to her.
"My Qing'er is very powerful. She knows astronomy and geography. If she were a boy, she might even be able to take the top prize!"
Luo Fengtang said with a proud face.
Mu Zichuan was even more surprised, looking at Yang Ruoqing with admiring eyes over and over again.
Being praised so much by one and being so irritated by another made her blush even though she was so thick-skinned.
"Uh... let's talk about serious matters now. After we finish talking, you two are allowed to praise me to death!" she teased.
Luo Fengtang grinned and sat down next to her.
Muzichuan also withdrew his gaze and nodded in agreement.
Here, Yang Ruoqing continued the topic just now and said to Mu Zichuan: "Everything is difficult at the beginning. Just because you can read doesn't mean you can control water."
"Especially to control water, first of all The first step is to be familiar with the terrain of our area, the height and level of the terrain.”
"If you are of any use to us, just ask, this is our common home, let's protect it together!"
She said with a sincere face.
Next to him, Luo Fengtang also echoed in time.
“That’s right, if you need our help if you need anything, just ask!”
Mu Zichuan looked at the two people in front of him, and a trace of emotion surged in his heart.
He knew that now was not the time to be competitive and save face, so he handed the pieces of paper in front of him to Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang.
“Here are the disaster information I compiled and some of my own thoughts.” “Look, let’s work out a reasonable flood control strategy together,” he said.
The three of them said nothing, each immersed himself in reading the information in his hands...
After a bowl of tea, Luo Fengtang spoke first.
"Muzichuan, the topographic map you drew and the layout of the rivers and ponds in our area left out several of them!" he said.
Mu Zichuan blushed.
"Uh... I have been bored in the house reading for more than ten years, and rarely walked outside..."
Yang Ruoqing also put down the materials in her hand, and asked Luo Fengtang: "Tangyazi, you are familiar with the terrain in our area, right?"
Luo Fengtang nodded without hesitation.
Yang Ruoqing said: "Well, you should quickly draw a comprehensive topographic map now."
"On the topographic map, focus on the height of the terrain, the distribution and size of ponds and ditches along the way... "She ordered.
Luo Fengtang nodded, "Okay, I'll paint right now!"
"Tangyazi, come sit here and paint, and I'll polish it for you."
Muzi Chuan stood up and gave up his seat. Luo Fengtang didn't show any pretense. He sat down and spread out a piece of white paper.
The long-boned fingers, accustomed to holding swords, now control the brush, writing like a dragon on the paper.
The tall and burly figure is sitting on the chair, powerful and domineering, but yet elegant and noble.
Mu Zichuan was grinding aside while observing Luo Fengtang's drawing.
When I saw his correct pen holding posture and his skillful technique.
Muzichuan was secretly shocked.
Especially when he saw Luo Fengtang's fonts marked in small regular script on the drawing...
Mu Zichuan was even more puzzled.
After three days of separation, we should look at each other with admiration.
Tang Yazi is no longer the hunter like a savage who only travels through the mountains and forests!
No wonder Qing'er fell in love with him.
Mu Zichuan seemed to understand a lot.
"No need to grind anymore, let him concentrate on painting alone, and the two of us will go to the table over there to continue discussing water control."
Yang Ruoqing's voice shook Mu Zichuan's His thoughts were brought back.
When he turned his head, Yang Ruoqing had already stood up and sat down at the table by the window.
Mu Zichuan quickly followed.
The two people were talking quietly about their thoughts and exchanging opinions on the information in their hands.
Three people live in the same room.
But it is the most harmonious and tacit understanding in history.
Time passes bit by bit.
Finally, Luo Fengtang put down the brush in his hand, picked up the drawing and blew lightly.
"I've finished the painting!"
He said, getting up and coming over here.
Yang Ruoqing took the drawing papers and laid them flat on the table.
In this way, with Changping Village as the center point, the topographic trend maps of the surrounding ten miles and eight villages all appear on the paper.
“Tang Yazi, you are awesome, I admire you!”
Looking at this clear drawing, people suddenly wake up in front of their eyes and in their minds.
Mu Zichuan said sincerely.
Luo Fengtang smiled modestly and waved his hand, "Compared to those beautiful articles you can write, this is nothing!"
Mu Zichuan said: "I was just talking on paper."
Luo Fengtang grinned. He had never been a good talker, and he became speechless after talking here.
