I Have a Mythical Tree

Chapter 146 The Sun's Silence Comes

After the three suns sank, they finally did not rise again.

Fine snowflakes began to fall in the sky, and the temperature between the sky and the earth also began to drop gradually.

Ji Xia stood on the palace tower, looking at the quiet Taicheng from a distance.

Most of the city is completely dark, and only a few main roads and various important government offices can see sporadic lights.

It is hard to imagine how the creatures in the boundless wilderness spend one long day after another.

In the longer history, in the common calendar of the boundless wilderness, November 1st of each year is the beginning of the solitude, and the sun will not rise from that day on.

And every January 1st is the time when the sun rises.

So precise, so punctual, as if it had been deliberately arranged.

Ji Xia has always been very curious about this completely unreasonable law.

For example, there are twelve months in the Boundless Wilderness, and there are thirty days after each month. There are only three hundred and sixty days in a year, and the three suns run the same day, month, year, and year.

For another example, Riji's precision is a bit too much.

If it is the natural movement of celestial bodies, there should be no difference in the slightest. After thousands of years, the difference of millimeters will also evolve into a terrifying gap.

However, it is said that the sun has existed since ancient times, and it has been like a day for thousands of years. This is a bit too accurate.

These questions are always lingering in his mind, allowing certain ideas in his mind to grow wildly.

He shook his head slightly, pushing the thoughts out of his mind.

"Lingyun Pavilion in the city has been under construction for more than a month now. How is the progress? The corpses of the heroes should be rested as soon as possible. It is not a solution to keep them in the palace."

With his hands behind his back, his heroic posture was even more upright, and he asked many ministers behind him.

"Reporting to the lord, the foundation and half of the main body of Lingyun Pavilion have been built. It's just that the craftsmen have been taken away to build houses for the newly moved people in the past few days, and the construction period has been slightly delayed."

Lu An, the head of the Craftsman's Mansion, took a step forward and reported to Ji Xia.

"Then what about the construction of the house? How is the progress? Is there any obstacle?" Ji Xia asked.

"Even if all the ministries of Tai Cang work together and have the help of Ji Shoujun, the progress will inevitably be slowed down by the arrival of the sun."

"Nowadays, lighting is still a huge problem. Qingyangyuan only produces a small amount of fixed oil core grass every year. The refined grass oil needs to be supplied to the royal court and the government. Where can I supply them with large quantities to build houses?"

Lu An bowed to answer, explaining the obstacles and difficulties.

Lu Yu came out and said: "Now there are still many things to be resolved urgently. I also want to ask the lord for instructions. Now that the timber reserves in the country have bottomed out, when will new timber be put into storage? If the timber is broken, the common people will be frozen to death."

"I already have a clue about the construction of the house. You can follow me to the construction site later to have a look."

Ji Xia turned around and said, "As for the matter of timber, Ronglou has already informed the two generals Ronglu and Chujiao. They have led two thousand guards and three thousand young and strong people to Zhou Qingguo to cut down trees."

Lu Yu was a little worried: "It's easy to cut down trees.

But how to transport those timbers to Taicang? The snow will fall more and more, and it is good to clean up the city from time to time. The wilderness is white, and it is too difficult for the cart to move. "

"Don't worry about it, I've already informed the two generals Ronglu and Chujiao about the solution, and they will arrange it properly," Ji Xia said casually.

When Lu Yu and Lu An heard Ji Xia's casual words, they looked at each other and bowed in agreement.

"Where is the asterism of the Taicheng Boyong Building and Tai Cang Academy's acting master?" Ji Xia asked.

Rong Lou and Su Xing rushed out to salute Ji Xia.

"A few days ago, I asked you to look for talented people with talents and talents in cultivation from the Taicang Academy, the military, and the people. Did you gain anything?"

Rong Lou took a step forward and replied: "Reporting to the lord, there are already eleven candidates, most of whom are from the military and civilians. They are not only talented in cultivation, but also have extraordinary comprehension, comprehension, and tenacity."

Su Xing also said: "In my Taicang Academy, I conducted a detailed assessment according to the requirements of the lord, and there are thirteen candidates, including four Mr. Xuegong, and nine Taicang boys and girls."

Ji Xia nodded in satisfaction and said: "There is also news from Poxian, saying that eighteen citizens of Cangcheng who meet the requirements have been found. They have already set off and will arrive in Taicheng in a few days. Once they arrive, you will call The person you choose will enter the palace and come to see me."

Rong Lou asked: "Master, why do we suddenly need so many talented people?"

"You will know when the time comes."

Ji Xia didn't want to say more, and Rong Lou didn't ask any more questions.

"Then let's go to the place where the Jiangu people built their houses."

When Ji Xia issued orders, all officials responded together.

So Borong Building in Taicheng, who was in charge of this matter, led the way, and the palace guards carried torches smeared with grass oil, guarding all the officials, and walked towards the north of the city together.

None of the young and middle-aged people of the Jiangu tribe was lazy.

They expended almost all their strength and all their minds to build the house.

Because they know in their hearts that this is their future residence, and their wives, children, and parents will spend their lives here.

The house will shelter them from the wind and rain, and will shelter them through the death of the day.

So they dare not be indifferent.

What warmed their hearts was that many Tai Cang and young adults also came here to help, and many aborigines from Taicheng brought them food.

This made the Jiangu people want to quickly settle in this place full of goodwill.

They are divided into two shifts, and the construction site has never stopped working at all hours of the day. In addition, Tai Cang is also working hard to build, and they have laid the foundation in just two days.

But as the sun fell, their speed suddenly slowed down.

Even though this was only the first day of Riji, they already clearly felt the gap.

In a night without light, the speed of construction cannot be too fast after all. At the same time, the work efficiency at night is less than a quarter of that during the day.

This means that their construction period will be much longer.

The date for the Jiangu people to live in their new houses will also be delayed a lot.

If it's not the silence of the sun, it doesn't matter much, but when the sun is silent, it will become colder and colder as time goes on.

In the second month of death, the effect of tents and stoves to keep out the cold is much worse than that of houses made of stone and wood.

"What should I do? This speed, no matter how fast it is, by the time we finish the work, I am afraid that the silence of the sun will have come to an end."

"A few days ago, the senior officials in the Taicheng Mansion told us that if we really can't finish it, let us disperse and go to the homes of the people in Taicheng. The people in Taicang have always been very enthusiastic, and no one should refuse. .”

"We have received many favors from the people of Taicang, so how can we bother them again? Let's fight hard, there should be a little bit of hope."

Grandpa Ninth and all the chiefs of the Jiangu tribe gathered together and discussed with each other under the faint light of a few torches.

Suddenly, they saw a group of people wearing simple long gowns and high crowns approaching.

Because of the darkness of the night, these people walked very close, and the Jiangu people vaguely spotted them.

"It's Taicang's superiors!" A patriarch said.

"Look, is the young master in brocade clothes surrounded by the emperor of the sky, is he the lord of the country?"

"Silence, the king is the king, what is the king?" Grandpa Jiu scolded, squinting his eyes to see that the young man with his hair tied back casually and in a silver robe, who is the king of Taicang? ?
