"Ninth Uncle, we've prepared everything you asked us to prepare. Let's start looking for water now.”
The village chief's forehead was covered in sweat. In order to find the things that Ninth Uncle had ordered, he had people run around the entire village. If there was nothing in the village, he had the young and strong people in the village ride horses to the neighboring village to look for it. Only then did he gather the things that Ninth Uncle needed.
They weren't sweating because they were in a hurry, but because of the sun. It was the middle of summer, and it wasn't even noon yet. The sun in the sky was like an oven. The water source in the village couldn't be used, so they had to find water from far away. They were so thirsty that they couldn't do anything about it. They didn't dare to drink water, so they could only secretly drink some wine.
"Yes, alright." Ninth Uncle nodded and turned to Lin Yi." Ah Yi, prepare the things we brought."”
"Don't worry, Master. I've prepared everything. It's in my bag.”Lin Yi said with a smile as he patted the bag on his back.
"Alright, Village Chief, let's go.”
"Please, Ninth Uncle."
……
After leaving the church, Ninth Uncle took the map of Huang Village that he had drawn in the morning and looked for water with the map of the nearby mountains and rivers provided by the village chief.
A compass was like a divine weapon in Ninth Uncle's hands. He drew on the topographic map and compared it with the compass. In an hour, Ninth Uncle had already found the approximate location of the water source.
With the help of the security team of Tanjia Town, the time was much faster. Otherwise, Lin Yi and Ninth Uncle might not have been able to find it even if it was dark today.
The village chief and the elders of the Huang Family Village stood in the shade and looked at the vast plain. It was so dry that there was not even a blade of grass. The ground was almost dried up. How could there be water?
"Is there water here? Why do I feel that it doesn't look like it!" An elder wiped his sweat and said. He didn't believe that there was water here.
"Ninth Uncle shouldn't be wrong. You heard it just now. The two mountains are half a mile apart, and the water level in the west is twenty feet higher. Ninth Uncle hasn't gone to see it.”
"Yeah, it's really amazing. Let's see what Ninth Uncle will do next.”
As the village chief and the elders conversed, Lin Yi inserted the eight trigrams funnel into the ground. This funnel was in the shape of the eight trigrams and was divided into eight sides. Runes were drawn on each side, leaving a round hole.
A handful of lotus flowers were placed into the Eight Trigrams Funnel. This was also very particular. It was called the Waterdrop Lotus and was used to find water.
Eight red ropes passed through the eight round holes like a spider web. After fixing the red ropes, Ninth Uncle and Lin Yi stopped. Now, they were just missing a piece of news.
The sound of a horse carriage came from afar. It was a young man from the village. Ninth Uncle had asked him to go to the opposite mountain to see the water source. It was in the middle of the mountain depression, also known as Dragon Waist.
"Ninth Uncle, I saw it. The water source is indeed at the waist of the dragon.”The young man shouted from afar. He knew that the situation in the village would become more serious if they delayed for another second. There were still many patients waiting to be boiled with water.
Ninth Uncle nodded at Lin Yi and said," Let's begin.”
"Yes, Master." Lin Yi took out the water-seeking talisman from his bag. After using his magic power to activate the water-seeking talisman, the water-seeking talisman burned with a puff.
As the burning water-seeking talisman was stuffed into the Eight Trigrams Funnel by Lin Yi, the bead placed in the lotus suddenly jumped up.
The Eight Trigrams Seeking Dragon and the Dragon Pearl Asking Water were a simple method of searching for water in the Maoshan Sect.
It wasn't easy either. One had to be proficient in the geography of mountains and rivers, the Yin and Yang Eight Trigrams, the Feng Shui of the stars, and have a certain amount of magic power.
Ding! Ding!
The dragon ball bounced twice and suddenly caught a red rope. Then, the dragon ball followed the red rope and drilled out of the small round hole of the Eight Trigrams Funnel.
"Go, mark where the bead stopped.”Ninth Uncle said to Lin Yi.
"Alright." Lin Yi nodded and took out a bunch of red bamboo sticks from his bag. Then, he marked the place where the dragon ball stopped with the bamboo stick.
This mark was not just a random bamboo stick. Instead, it was placed on both sides of the bead's resting position in a cross shape.
A few minutes later, on both sides of the spiritual beads, Lin Yi had already prepared the bamboo sticks. The bamboo sticks were connected with red ropes, and a red rope was connected from the eight trigrams funnel to the middle of the cross-shaped bamboo sticks.
"Master, this should be the place.”Lin Yi pointed at the cross under his feet and smiled.
This time, the field trip was quite smooth. As long as they dug out the water, their work would be considered half completed.
"It should be." Ninth Uncle walked over and picked up the red string at the spot where the bead stopped. He lifted it up and then let go. The red string quickly bounced to the ground.
With a snap, the red string returned to its original position. The originally dry red string instantly became like it had been soaked in water. Water droplets dripped down.
This was the Waterdrop Lotus! Dragon Ball Seeking Water!
Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden system mission to find a new water source for the Huang Family Village. Saint Master's Order
"Holy sh * t, when did this stupid system become so generous? There's even a hidden mission. Oh right, what's the use of this Saint Master Token?”Lin Yi asked in surprise and confusion.
This was really an unexpected surprise.
"Saint Master Token, a secret treasure of the Maoshan Sect. It can detect the true bodies of demons and ghosts in the world. It has the effect of deterring the demons of the three worlds and pardoning the demons of the six paths. Every time you kill an evil demon, it can increase the power of the Saint Master Token.”
"F * ck, this introduction sounds awesome! Maoshan Sect's secret treasure! Amazing, System, is this thing already bound? I want to bind it now." Lin Yi was even more excited.
[Ding!] The Sagemaster Token has been bound!"
"Perfect. Every time I kill a demon, the power of the Saint Master Token will increase. Isn't this a treasure with growth potential? In fact, this is more than 10,000 times more precious than the Demon Slaying Sword that the system gave me previously. I didn't expect that I could obtain such a treasure from a random hidden mission.”
"Why are you in a daze? Make a mark!" Ninth Uncle's voice sounded beside him. Only then did Lin Yi wake up from his ecstasy and quickly used a wooden stake to mark the ground.
After checking the wooden stakes, as long as the villagers dug down along the wooden stakes, they would definitely be able to see water.
"How is it, Ninth Uncle? Did you find it?”
Seeing that they were done, the village chief walked over with a smile. If they dug quickly, they would be able to drink water at night. How could the village chief not be happy?
"I found it. This mountain is the tap of water. The four waters are one and endless. Opening the well here is the same as opening the tap.”Ninth Uncle explained.
"Then let's start digging now. The earlier we dig, the earlier we use water.”The village chief said impatiently.
"No, well water is yin. We have to wait until noon.”Ninth Uncle shook his head and stopped him. It was fine to dig the well in advance, but people who dug the well were prone to getting sick. Noon was the hottest time of the day, and the yang qi was the most abundant.
"Then let's go back for lunch first and come back after dinner.”
"Okay, you guys go first. We'll go over after packing.”
"Alright, let's go over first."
