Cutting over the end of the Ming Dynasty: a dog-leg knife at the beginning

Chapter 752 It's Fair

The wind was howling, and the rain was like arrows. The streets of Nanyang soon became a vast ocean, full of water, and mighty, like big rivers.The rain was so fierce that even though Nanyang's drainage system was very developed, second to none in the country, it still couldn't stand it, and the whole Nanyang was about to become a city of water.Similarly, due to the drought since the beginning of spring, many mountain ponds have almost dried up, and the water level of the river has dropped again and again, exposing the riverbed. Now a heavy rain has come, and the mountain pond reservoirs are filled to the brim. Farmers and fish and shrimp The farmers were all smiling, and they could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

The donkey can also breathe a sigh of relief.Because it seldom rained, they were finally driven by leather whips, circling around the transmission system of the waterwheel, driving the waterwheel to lift water from wells and rivers, or driving the screw pump to pump water out. Well, it's not a donkey's job!Well now, they can finally have a rest!

The heavy rain fell for more than ten minutes at a stretch, then the rain turned light and continued to fall non-stop, as if to make up all the debts owed in the past few months at once, so as not to turn Nanyang into a second Venetian water city Not over.But no one would care about this, everyone was sincerely grateful to Yang Menglong for bringing this heavy rain, otherwise what fell on their heads would turn into a devastating hailstorm.Thinking of the scene where so much rain turned into hail and fell down, most people expressed great pressure!

Everyone was discussing: It seems that what the bastard said is right, there is nothing to be afraid of natural disasters, as long as you dare to fight against them, you will definitely be able to defeat them!In the past, everyone didn't understand, and people were fooled. They thought that they or the emperor made some mistakes that would attract the punishment from heaven. Now that I think about it, I was really stupid at that time, and I can't make the same mistakes again in the future...

In the restaurant, Chen Zilong and Fang Yizhi held wine glasses in their hands, leaning against the window to enjoy the rain scene, watching the rain mixed with rare small hailstones, they both smiled happily.

Fang Yizhi drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and said, "He has succeeded again."

Chen Zilong said: "It doesn't seem to be surprising. He has succeeded many times. It's just that I have never understood why using a rocket to hit some messy things into the sky will turn the hailstone into rain, making the originally unsatisfactory A rainy day turns into a rainy day?"

Fang Yizhi smiled: "This is the power of chemistry... Chemistry is really fascinating!"

Chen Zilong sighed: "After witnessing this miracle, I am afraid that the people who come to sign up to study chemistry will explode the registration office? This is a magical ability that can change the world."

Fang Yizhi said, "Isn't this a good thing?"

Chen Zilong said: "It's a good thing, but..." he shook his head and said no more.

The thing is obvious, what can really enlighten people's wisdom is not poetry, books and articles, but natural sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, etc. The more people who are willing to learn this knowledge, the more people who master this knowledge, the smarter the people will be .With the popularization of natural science, the set of absurd theories that maintain the emperor's rule will be strongly impacted. Similarly, the Confucian theory of governing the country will be impacted even more, and will even be eliminated!A nerd who can only recite poetry or a technocrat, which would you choose?I believe that anyone with a normal mind will give the correct answer!

Earth-shaking changes are brewing in the Ming Dynasty, whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, no one can tell.

"How on earth did he do it?"

In the post house, Zhang Pu's hair was wet and disheveled, he was very embarrassed, he didn't realize it at all, he leaned against the window and watched the rain falling non-stop, muttering to himself.Obviously, Yang Menglong's act against the heavens shocked him too much, until now he still hasn't recovered.

Confucianism deceives the world with its big mouth, and relies on the so-called "law of heaven" to eat. It repeats the lie thousands of times, and in the end, even itself believes it.Now someone told him that it was all nonsense!He couldn't react for a while.

Hou Fangyu looked anxious and angry, clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said, "Heaven is like a lord, that thief can't stay! If he is allowed to deceive the world with this set of fallacies and evil methods, everyone will rush to him to learn these things." There is no place for me to wait for the evil ways!"

Zhang Pu didn't seem to hear it, and continued to talk to himself: "Can people really defy the sky?"

Hou Fangyu stomped his feet anxiously and shouted: "Heaven is like a man, now is not the time to ponder these things! If we don't take action as soon as possible to bring him down, our Confucianism will face annihilation. This is by no means alarmist!"

Zhang Pu finally came to his senses, waved his hand, and said, "Don't worry, the right to speak is ultimately in the hands of us scholars. He wants to overwhelm us, it's not that easy!"

It's just that he didn't even believe it himself.

"How on earth did he do it?"

In Nanyang Cathedral, dozens of priests who were also drenched were chattering and chattering, all of them were extremely excited.Today they witnessed a miracle, that magical guy actually defeated the heavens and turned a devastating hailstorm into a rain that nourished all things. It is really incredible, only God can do this!Everyone frantically opened their minds, guessed and confused, exhausted tons of brain cells, but still couldn't figure it out.Father Bowen waved the notebook in his hand and called: "Everyone, everyone! We have witnessed a miracle in the history of mankind, and we have also witnessed the famous words of Governor Yang: Human wisdom can defeat heaven! This is a historic moment , I think we should record it in detail and then report it to the country, you must know that Europe is also suffering the test of natural disasters, and we also need this kind of means and wisdom to fight against natural disasters!"

Father Fernand said: "I totally agree with your point of view! But we don't know how he did it at all. We only know that he made a kind of ice called dry ice, but what kind of ice is used for that kind of ice?" What was done and how was done, we don't know anything!"

Father Bowen said: "We can report to the country first, and then try to find out slowly. Based on our friendship with him, we can always get something valuable from him! By the way, we can also ask Countess Catherine for help. , she has a close relationship with Governor Yang, I believe Governor Yang will be happy to share his secrets with her!"

Father Roland was a little worried: "She is from Venice, will she want us?"

Father Bowen said: "She is a European first, and then a Venetian. This is related to the future of Europe. I don't think she will refuse!"

"Ah, Ah, Ah!"

Yang Menglong lay on the bed and sneezed violently, with a profuse runny nose.This heavy rain brought great surprises to Nanyang, and also brought great shocks to his lovely wives—this bastard has been soaking in the rain to command, and he caught a cold, no, sneezing all the time Haven't stopped yet!This is a terrible situation, Xiao Yufang went to make ginger soup, Liu Ziyan brought several quilts to cover him, Cheng Qi hurriedly asked people to invite a doctor, and the whole Hou Mansion was in chaos.Yang Menglong just thought it was funny, and kept shouting: "I said, can you stop making a fuss, I just have a cold, a minor ailment, just sleep and it will be fine!"

Liu Ziyan continued to cover him with a quilt, and the temperature in the quilt was comparable to that of the stove: "You put it lightly! Don't you know that many serious illnesses are caused by these minor illnesses? Lie down obediently, sweating Just come!"

Yang Menglong complained: "Don't put a quilt on me anymore, if you continue to cover me, I will be suffocated if I don't die of illness!"

Liu Ziyan counted, good guy, the thick ones and the thin ones added up, seven quilts were covered on him.She said in a negotiating tone: "I think we should cover another one, what do you think?"

Yang Menglong: "..."

Xiao Yufang came in with a steaming bowl of ginger soup, hugged his head and said, "Come on, drink the ginger soup quickly, and you'll be fine if you drink it!"

Yang Menglong took a sip, squeezed his eyes, nose and mouth together, and shouted, "Spicy, so spicy! Is this ginger soup? It's ginger juice, right!?"

Xiao Yufang said: "Ginger can drive away cold and evil. Eating more is good for the body. Hurry up and drink it!"

Yang Menglong said: "I don't want to drink such a spicy thing!"

Liu Ziyan put her hand on her waist: "Are you going to drink?"

Yang Menglong trembled, and asked pitifully, "Do you have to drink it?"

Liu Ziyan and Xiao Yufang said in unison: "You must drink!"

It seemed that he couldn't escape, so Yang Menglong drank it down with a bitter face... This bowl of ginger soup was actually ginger juice, his whole stomach was on fire, and he was sweating all over...

Just after drinking the ginger soup, Cheng Qi rushed in with the doctor's feet...Yang Menglong wailed in his heart, it's over, and he has to continue to be tossed!

Ladies, I know I was wrong, I dare not get in the rain again, please let me go!
Fortunately, the doctor is quite reliable. After looking around and asking, he said with a smile: "It's all right, Lord Hou just catches a little cold, drink two bowls of ginger soup to drive away the cold, and sleep well."

Cheng Qi breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank God..." asked Yang Menglong: "How are you feeling?"

Yang Menglong said: "I feel that I am full of strength now, and I can kill two tigers... I don't need to drink this ginger soup anymore, right?"

Xiao Yufang said: "No, you must drink it, otherwise how can you be thorough? Cheng Qi, come and help squeeze the ginger juice!"

Yang Menglong let out a scream!
It seems that although Daming's champion Hou has superb abilities, he is still no match for these family members. If he falls into their hands, he will suffer a lot.

When Yang Menglong was tormented by several lovely wives, pigeons flew over from all counties one after another, bringing the latest news:
There was a heavy rain in Fangcheng County, the reservoirs and ponds were filled, and the river became turbulent;
Sheqi is still raining heavily, and the drought has been completely resolved;

The heavy rain in Wuyang turned to moderate rain, hundreds of thousands of mu of wheat were fully watered, the reservoir was full, and the drought was greatly alleviated;

Xichuan mountainous area suffered severe hail disasters, the hail and heavy rain were as dense as torrential rain. Wherever it went, the vegetation was broken, many people were injured, and even a miner was crushed to death;

Tongbai Mountain suffered a severe hailstorm, and many wild animals in the mountain were killed and injured;
……

The rocket launcher units of the Heluo New Army were ordered to do their best to ensure the safety of the agricultural reclamation area, and they didn't care about the mountainous areas... Anyway, there are not many farmlands there, so even if there is a hailstorm, it's no big deal.Therefore, Tongbai County, Xichuan County, and Xixia County, which are a few counties with many mountains and little land, suffered from bad luck. The hailstones smashed down, smashing the roof tiles and windows of the residents, and killing those who could not escape. They were smashed to the point of bleeding, and even more small animals were killed and injured.With the comparison, everyone knew what a terrible hail disaster they had escaped, and everyone was terrified. If Yang Menglong hadn't stepped forward to fight against the sky, this season's crops would have been completely over!

The news spread that a magnitude [-] earthquake was triggered in Daming, and Yang Menglong's reputation was pushed to a new height. This kind of height was not reached even when he was defeated by Jin Jinjun. In his eyes, he was already a god.

After reading the newspaper, the queen smiled and said to Chongzhen: "The concubine said that the champion will find a solution, right?"

Chongzhen smacked his lips and said: "That kid actually has such abilities. I really underestimated him before. With him here, why should I be afraid of natural disasters?" Touching his chin, he was a little dissatisfied: "I am so precious as the emperor, I don't even have such abilities." He actually has the ability to summon wind and rain, isn't that too unfair?"

The queen laughed and said, "He still has to teach Cihong these skills in the end. Don't forget, he is Cihong's emperor teacher!"

When Chongzhen heard this, he immediately felt balanced: "Yes, this is fair!"

Regarding Yang Menglong's denial of the theory of the heavenly grant of monarchy, Chongzhen has no opinion at all... This country was originally brought down by our old Zhu family's own efforts. It's none of God's business. Just hang me up as a target!
