After marrying the vegetative prince, the doctor concubine killed people randomly

Chapter 650 Looking for Water Source

"During these three days, everyone can come here to receive free refined rice. Each family and each person can receive ten kilograms. This princess and the prince will give it away for free out of their own pockets until everyone has received the rice."

Ji Yuntang's words shocked everyone present.

They must have heard it right. It’s ok that Princess Ye gave out porridge for three consecutive days, but she also gave them refined rice for free?

The point is, they paid for the distribution out of their own pockets and it had nothing to do with the imperial court.

After someone was excited, he suddenly remembered something and frowned and said, "We have rice, but what about water?"

"It's so dry in Liangzhou now that a bowl of water at home has to be used three times. If there is no water, how can we survive?"

This question caused everyone to fall into silence.

Compared to food, water is the most indispensable source of life in their lives.

The rice that Ji Yuntang distributed to them might allow them to survive for a while, but the food would be gone sooner or later.

What should they do after they finish eating the rice?

Wouldn't that mean we're back to the days of freezing and starving?

If there was water, things would be different. They could grow their own food and wouldn't have to go hungry anymore.

However, how could the people present not know that food is an easy problem to solve, but water is a very difficult problem to solve.

No matter how powerful His Royal Highness the Night King and his wife are, it is impossible for them to make God rain for them, right?

It is a lie for everyone to say they have no worries.

Luo Junhe turned to look at Ji Yuntang. He inexplicably felt that his little princess should have a solution to the problem.

He asked: "Atang, can you find a way to solve the water problem here?"

Ji Yuntang pursed her red lips and said, "Maybe, I can give it a try."

She had thought about this problem before. Water is the foundation of people's livelihood. If there is food but no water, it will be basically difficult to change the current situation here.

If the people of Liangzhoukou want to improve their lives, the issue of water supply is essential.

First of all, domestic water and irrigation of fertile fields are the most important in her opinion.

Ji Yuntang thought for a moment and said, "I just found a topographic map of Liangzhoukou in the City Lord's Mansion."

"I observed that the terrain here is high on the top and low on the bottom. There is a very long river on the mountain that runs through the entire Liangzhoukou mountain range."

"If we can divert the water from this river, the problem of irrigating the farmland can be solved."

An Qi frowned and said, "I know that river. It's in the middle of the mountain, close to the inside, and there are huge rocks weighing thousands of pounds on the sides."

"Before, the village chief also suggested that we find a way to move the big rock there and divert the water from the river down from there."

"But it's not easy to implement. The stones are big and heavy, and they are all embedded in the ground. Let alone moving them, even if you want to dig them out, you can't."

"The village chief here also sent men from several villages to dig stones, but they worked for several days but returned empty-handed."

"Princess, do you have any way to move those stones?"

An Qi had never seen Ji Yuntang's abilities before, so naturally he didn't believe that she had such abilities.

But now, after learning that the other party had space, he felt that Ji Yuntang was omnipotent.

Ji Yuntang raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at them, and said, "How difficult is this? Can't we just blow it up with explosives?"

Luo Junhe's eyes lit up when he heard this. Others might not know the power of the explosives in Ji Yuntang's hand, but there was no way he didn't know.

No matter how hard the stone is, it will not be able to remain intact when faced with such explosives.

Thinking of this, Luo Junhe said, "Atang, there is no time to lose. Let's go up the mountain tonight and choose a suitable water route to help the people solve their water problem in one go."

Ji Yuntang had the same idea. Using explosives to blast rocks could only be done at night.

During the day, it would be too easy to attract attention.

She nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go up the mountain tonight."

After several people discussed it, Ji Yuntang said to the people: "Please be patient, everyone. This princess and His Royal Highness Ye Wang already know about your water shortage problem. We promise you that we will definitely help you solve this problem in the shortest possible time."

"Please give us another three days. I promise I won't let you down."

When the people heard what Ji Yuntang said, they smiled and agreed, but they were still half-believing and half-doubting in their hearts.

It’s not that they don’t believe Ji Yuntang, but finding a water source is something that cannot be accomplished in two or three days.

If it were that simple, they wouldn't have to go hungry due to lack of food.

Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe comforted all the people in the City Lord's Mansion and asked them to go home first.

As for those prisoners who escaped from the dungeon and were wrongly accused, Luo Junhe found their charges one by one and tore them up in front of them.

Luo Junhe and Ji Yuntang also released many people who were exiled here and gave them some money so that they could find a new place to live.

After being rescued, everyone was grateful to them.

That night, Ji Yuntang, Luo Junhe and An Qi went up the mountain.

Each of them held a flashlight, and Luo Junhe and An Qi protected Ji Yuntang in the middle.

An Qi was more familiar with the terrain, so he walked in front to lead the way for the two.

The way up the mountain is relatively easy to walk on, but all the edible plants on the outside have been plucking away by the villagers.

Including the bark on the trees, the wild fruits on the vines, and the mushrooms on the ground, basically everything is bare.

But the further you get into the inner area, the harder the road becomes. The stones under your feet are covered with moss, there are dense forests and thorns on both sides, snakes, insects, rats and ants are running everywhere, and there are poisonous animals and plants everywhere.

If you are not careful, you will get caught.

As Ji Yuntang walked, he took out the medicinal powder in the space to drive them away, and the three of them had no danger along the way.

Of course, Ji Yuntang did not gain nothing.

While climbing the mountain, she found many useful medicinal herbs.

Moreover, the medicinal herbs here are growing well, in large patches, and Ji Yuntang enjoys picking them very much.

An Qi and Luo Junhe also helped her collect herbs.

It took them about two and a half hours to reach the inner part of the mountain.

The inner road is difficult to travel, and there are many ferocious beasts and poisonous creatures on the mountain, so few villagers will come here.

Even if they want to come, they only dare to go up the mountain in groups.

As soon as Ji Yuntang and Luo Junhe stood still, they heard a rustling sound in their ears.

They instantly became alert. An Qi drew his sword and held it across his body, saying, "My Lord, Princess, don't be afraid. I will protect you."

Ji Yuntang pulled him back and threw something to him.
