"Sir Yang, actually this is not a big project. We just need to find the nearest place to dig a river, and then distribute the cost to the villagers in each place. If we don't take action, I'm afraid the grain supply of the entire Nanling County will dry up this year." Yu Tinghai pointed to the map and drew the nearest river with a cinnabar pen.

Governor Yang looked at it and said, "Your method is good! And your search for the water source in Sifu Mountain is also correct. Only by opening up the waterway of the entire Nanling County, we will not be afraid of heavy rain in the future. I will call the magistrates of other counties to the government office tomorrow."

"My Lord Governor, I will go back to the government office with you," said Yu Tinghai.

"What shall we do with the ten bandits you captured?" asked Governor Yang.

"Don't worry, just lock him up in my county jail. Let's take care of the farm work first!" Yu Tinghai said as he and Taishou Yang returned to Nanling County overnight.

When Yu Yunxin came back, Yu Tinghai was about to get on the carriage. When he saw Yu Yunxin, he moved his foot that was about to step on the carriage to Yu Yunxin's side and said, "Xin'er, I have important things to do at the Nanling County government office in the next two days. You stay here and help me take care of the water diversion project in Wangshan County."

"Don't worry, Dad!" Yu Yunxin nodded.

"I feel at ease knowing you are in Wangshan County." After saying this, Yu Tinghai got on the carriage with Governor Yang.

The two coachmen waved their whips and the two carriages quickly disappeared in front of Yu Yunxin.

"Miss, are you going to eat roasted rabbit meat today?" Chunyu asked as he walked out from the back yamen.

"Of course I ate it." Yu Yunxin replied to Chunyu and walked straight to the back yamen.

She went straight into the kitchen and started cooking dinner. There was a processed rabbit in the kitchen today. She looked around and found that there were no modern baking ingredients. She took some fine salt and soy sauce to spread on the rabbit meat. She asked Qiu Shuang to go to the government office to pick some leaves from the laurel tree, wash the leaves one by one, dip them in some of the sauce she had prepared, and dip them on the rabbit meat one by one. She also stuffed some into the rabbit's stomach, put it on the fire rack outside the kitchen and started roasting it. Then she made a bowl of wolfberry, astragalus and angelica tonic chicken soup. This chicken soup was specially made for Lian Qiao.

When the two rabbits were roasted, the aroma was so fragrant that it could be smelled from miles away.

"Miss, this roasted rabbit smells so good. Can we eat it now?" Qiu Shuang asked.

"Go to the kitchen and get some white sesame seeds. This is the last step." Yu Yunxin said.

Qiu Shuang immediately ran to the kitchen and got some white sesame seeds. Yu Yunxin took the white sesame seeds and sprinkled them on the rabbit. Then she took out the rabbit and put it on the plate. The four of them sat in the pavilion, looking at the moonlight, eating roasted rabbit and drinking chicken soup. It was really comfortable.

"Miss, the moonlight is so beautiful today. Look, I embroidered a fan for you today." Chunyu said as she took out the handicraft she had embroidered today.

"Wow, is the image you embroidered the young lady dancing in the moonlight yesterday? It's so beautiful. Chunyu, if I were a man, I would marry you." Lian Qiao took the embroidery cloth, took a look at it and said approvingly.

Chun Yu blushed and said, "Our young lady is prettier than this fan. This is just a back view."

Yu Yunxin took it and looked at it, then she smiled and said, "Chunyu's embroidery is pretty good. You can embroider some more background objects, such as branches and the moon, so that your embroidery will be more distinctive."

"Miss, you are right. Beautiful scenery and beautiful women make for a beautiful embroidery. By the way, can fireflies be embroidered into butterflies?" Chunyu asked.

"Of course you can. Next time if I find the materials to make a figure, I'll give you a cute figure." Yu Yunxin said.

"What is the Miss's figurine?" Lian Qiao asked.

"It's a porcelain figurine, but it's even more exquisite than a porcelain figurine." Yu Yunxin replied.

"Miss, can you make porcelain figures?" Qiu Shuang asked.

Yu Yunxin was afraid that she would expose herself in front of these three people, but she immediately replied after traveling to the modern era: "I also read it in a book. I will try it next time when I find some materials."

After saying that, he looked at Lian Qiao and said, "You three have eaten so much chicken soup for replenishing qi, so you should practice Ba Duan Jin with Lian Qiao tonight. You are so young and can't eat too much of these replenishing things." After saying that, he jumped onto the top of the pavilion with a light skill, then flew into his room with a cloud-piercing leap and looked at the three people in the pavilion.

After they finished packing up, the three of them started practicing Ba Duan Jin in the open space next to the pavilion. At the beginning, Chun Yu's movements were not standard, and Qiu Shuang had to guide her several times before she corrected her movements.

Yu Yunxin watched Yueguang bite his finger and drip blood on the wooden box given by his master, but he didn't move. Yu Yunxin was puzzled, and saw that the lock on the box was only opened a little, otherwise it would not be noticed if you didn't look carefully.

"What the hell is this box? One drop of blood is not enough?" Yu Yunxin said, looking at the box.

Yu Yunxin then took out a dagger and cut her wrist directly, letting her blood drip onto the palm-sized wooden box. Suddenly, there was a "pop" sound and the box opened, revealing a string of colorful bracelets emitting seven kinds of light.

Yu Yunxin immediately applied hemostatic powder on her wrist, and the bleeding stopped. Yu Yunxin looked at the colorful bracelet in front of her in confusion, thinking that this couldn't be her time-travel gold finger, which she had been wearing for more than a month. This was the equipment given to her by her master.

She took the bracelet and put it on her wrist. Suddenly, her eyes went dark and she passed out. She saw that there seemed to be a huge internal force in the bracelet, flowing into her body, including memories that did not belong to her, such as the memory of playing the piano, the scene of being the center of attention, and the scene of being on a battlefield with tens of thousands of people. She was very confused.

Until dawn, she saw herself lying on the bed, and the colorful bracelet in her hand had no light. Was last night a dream? She got up from the bed and found that her inner strength was surging. She came to the piano stand and several piano scores appeared in her mind. Could it be that the master was talking about the Heavenly Sound Magic Skill?

So she picked up the zither and walked out of the room. Qiu Shuang and Chun Yu were waiting outside the door. When they saw Yu Yunxin holding the zither, they asked, "Miss, what are you doing with the zither?"

Yu Yunxin said, "After breakfast, let's go to the prison to interrogate the bandits there." After that, she asked Chunyu to prepare hot water for washing. After washing herself, she changed into a simple and elegant men's suit.

Several people came to the cell. They looked at Yu Yunxin walking over with the zither on her back and said with a smile, "Sir, are you bored? Why are you coming to this cell to play the zither for us?"

Yu Yunxin looked at them and smiled, "That's right. Since you guys don't tell me where Tiger Leap Village is, I have no choice but to give you a song."

As he said this, he asked Chunyu Qiushuang Lianqiao to plug their ears with cotton and started playing the piano by himself. The ten people couldn't help but jump up to the music when they heard the sound of the piano. Yu Yunxin laughed when she saw them dancing.

"What's going on? Why can't we control our dancing?" asked the fourth brother.

"Old Four, I don't know what this strange piano sound is. This musician wants to control us." Another bandit replied.

Chunyu, Qiu Shuang and the other two who were watching from the side were also so amused by the dancing of these grown men that they held their stomachs in laughter.

Then the piano music changed and the ten people began to feel drowsy.

Yu Yunxin asked while playing the piano: "Where is Huyue Village, and how many people are there in your village?"

"It's thirty miles outside of Nanling County. There are thickets of thorns with poisonous thorns. If you touch them, you will faint. We have an antidote prepared by the boss." As they said this, several people took out the antidote and placed it outside the cell. Lian Qiao walked over and took back the antidote.

"Our eldest boss is the leader of Huyue Village. He was originally a constable in Nanling County. He was framed by Wu Tongzhou and forced to become the eldest boss of Huyue Village. Our second in command is the eldest boss's sister. She is also a heroine. The most powerful one is the third in command. He was a soldier before. He brought more than 200 soldiers to our Huyue Village, which greatly increased our strength. We also have a military advisor, and he assigns our brothers in the village to work. There are more than 300 people in this mountain village. We all rob the rich to help the poor. We also collect some herbs and mountain products in the mountains to feed the 300 people. We have never done anything that is against the law of nature." Those people told everything.

After hearing so much information from everyone, Yu Yunxin stopped playing the piano. Playing the piano really took a lot of her internal energy.

"Miss, what did they say?" Lian Qiao asked.

"They told me all the news about Huyue Village. Let's go!" Yu Yunxin said.

"Where are we going to Huyue Village?" Qiu Shuang asked.

Yu Yunxin laughed when she heard this and said, "Why would you go there and just give yourself up?"

"Then where are we going?" Lian Qiao asked.

"Of course, we will go to other villages to see if there is any mountain spring water, and then go to see the river here." Yu Yunxin said.

Holding the map of Wangshan County, they set out. Wangshan County only has four villages with mountains, and five villages have no mountains but only a few small hills. Looking at the dying rice, Yu Yunxin had no choice but to ask the villagers to dig rivers and find groundwater in low-lying areas.

This time, with the help of several Feng Shui masters, a small lake was dug for Xiahe Village. Groundwater appeared when the lake was dug about 20 meters deep. The villagers were very excited, but water diversion became a problem. The water flowed to the ground, so how to divert the water from the low place to a higher place became a problem.

"Sir, we have dug up water today. Huashan Village and Xinglin Village have mountain springs, but we have groundwater! You can't ask us to fetch water!" asked the village chief of Xiahe Village.

"The head of the village, I'll ask Uncle Li Wang to go to the town to find a carpenter, and also get all the carpenters in your village. We can make a big waterwheel to fetch water. And you need to dig some water here and put the waterwheel at the mouth of the rice field over there." Yu Yunxin gestured as she spoke, and took out a piece of paper and began to draw.

After she finished drawing, she showed it to the carpenters. One of the old carpenters said, "It will take at least three days for us to finish such a large waterwheel."

"Okay, this big lake is close to Shangba Village, so let the villagers of Shangba Village dig on the other side and build a similar waterwheel over there. Can you speed up the repair of the waterwheel?" Yu Yunxin said.

What she didn't expect was that the carpenters divided the work and completed the big waterwheel on the second day. On the third day, with the help of several villagers, the waterwheel was finally placed beside the excavated artificial lake.

At this time, all the county magistrates of Nanling County also came over and saw how water was being diverted from low places to the rice fields. This waterwheel only needed three strong men to step on it, and the water kept flowing into the dried-up rice fields. Once the rice fields absorbed the water, they were revived.

"County Magistrate Yu, your son is really a clever man. He uses a diabolo to draw water from mountain springs and a water wheel to draw water from low-lying ponds. Could you please ask your son to give us a copy of the water wheel drawings? We will do the same and listen to you when we go back to build new water conservancy projects." said the Nanshan County Magistrate.

"Of course there is no problem with County Magistrate Gu. These are all good things related to people's livelihood. I will do my best to help every citizen of Nanling County." Yu Tinghai said.

"Let's go and tread water." Governor Yang said curiously while looking at the waterwheel.

"Prefect Yang, please wait for me. I will go too." The magistrate of Shangyang County said as he followed Prefect Yang.

When the villagers who were actually treading water saw that it was the governor and the county magistrate, so many great men coming, they immediately stopped what they were doing, knelt down and said, "You gentlemen have come from afar, and we are sorry for not welcoming you in person."

"Everyone, get up and pedal the waterwheel for a while." Yang Taishou said, and he stepped onto the pedal at the rear of the waterwheel and started pedaling with the three county magistrates. He said, "You can see that the water is coming up without any effort."

"Since you have these two methods, could you please let other counties introduce them as well?" Magistrate Ge said.

"These are all ways to benefit the people, and naturally we need to share them with everyone in the world," said Yu Tinghai.

"Yes, yes, County Magistrate Yu's coming to our Nanling County is really a blessing to Nanling County. I have to hurry back to Nanshan County to find water for the people of Nanshan County." After saying this, County Magistrate Gu immediately turned around and left.

Magistrate Ge on the side did not say anything. He and several other county magistrates looked at the empty bamboo tubes on the mountain that were used to draw water, and now there were water wheels that were used to draw water. They took the drawings and were all going back.

Yang Taishou let the villagers step on it after a while, walked up to Yu Yunxin and said, "Master Yu, are these all your ideas?"

"Mr. Yang, can you please spare me a moment to talk?" Yu Tinghai came up to Mr. Yang and said.

"Actually, she is not a young master. She is my daughter. She disguised herself as a man because it is inconvenient to go out." Yu Tinghai took Governor Yang to a deserted place and said to him softly.

"I didn't expect it was your daughter who stopped the emperor's carriage!" Governor Yang glanced at Yu Yunxin and said with a smile, "No wonder, Lord Yu, I really envy you for having such a smart and kind daughter!"

"You are too kind, Lord Yang," Yu Tinghai replied.

"Okay, I'll go back and write a report to His Majesty. This year, the drought is not only affecting our Nanling County, but also Huzhou and Chengzhou. With your methods, I believe that people all over the world can live a life of plenty this year." After saying this, Governor Yang turned and left.

"Xin'er, you've worked hard these days. Go back quickly. Look at you, a grown woman, you're getting tanned." Yu Tinghai said to Yu Yunxin lovingly.

"Dad, it's okay, so it's okay." Yu Yunxin replied with a smile, and came to the bank of the rice field and watched the clear water flowing into the rice field. With the water, it is natural to fertilize the rice.
