Chapter 226: You Can’t Become a Goddess

The space spirit is a guy who doesn't like to be lonely, and he is not afraid of things getting out of hand at all.

It chuckled and asked, "What do you want me to do? But let me be clear, I can't leave your side."

Su Nuan knew that the space spirit was indispensable, but its neck was long enough, so its help was indispensable.

He immediately smiled and said, "Want to know? Let's go!"

She brought the space spirit back into the space spirit, searched around and found a bamboo basket and disassembled the bamboo strips inside.

She used bamboo strips as the skeleton, pasted them into the shape of a phoenix, and then painted it with paint.

A huge phoenix with its wings spread out in flight was created.

The space spirit asked in confusion: "You made this pheasant too big, are you planning to hang it on a tree?"

Su Nuan, “…”

Pheasant? The one I made is clearly a phoenix.

She said angrily: "This is a phoenix, a phoenix, do you understand?"

The space spirit shut up instantly, so it’s better not to provoke it.

After Su Nuan finished making the phoenix, she looked at Hai Lan and asked, "Is there something that can solidify quickly? I want to fill the hole that Su Zhen dug.

The space spirit asked, "Why do you want to fill it up? Isn't it good to have a spring there? Or do you want to dig a hole next to it?"

Su Nuan replied, "There wasn't any water there to soak the ground, so the stone was able to stay in place. If water continued to moisten the surrounding soil, the stone might become loose and roll away."

The space spirit nodded. "Well, I looked at the mud and sand that the water pushed out. There's a lot of sand, which means these rocks lack adhesive. If they're soaked in water for a long time, they might actually fall off."

Hai Lan thought for a moment and said, "It would be a waste to use such valuable things. Why not try quick-drying cement? It will dry in an hour and will be indistinguishable from stone."

Su Nuan's eyes lit up. "That's it. I originally thought I'd just crush some stones and mix them with fish glue and pour it in if I didn't have anything suitable."

Hailan found some cement and mixed it into mud with his own hands. He carried the bucket and asked, "Shall we go out now?"

Su Nuan nodded, "I'll go out and take a look now."

She left the space. Su Zhen and her men had already left. The hole in the stone was covered with moss and a gray hemp rope was pressed down.

Su Nuan pulled the hemp rope in confusion, and the rope brought out the thing blocking the hole. The water sprayed out half a foot and then fell back.

She followed the hemp rope and came to a small path, which was the path the villagers usually took to go up the mountain.

"Su Zhen wanted to walk over here and quietly use a hemp rope to pull out the blockage, then mutter something casually. Once the water is discovered, she can prove she is a goddess.

She curled her lips. "Want to be a goddess? I'll let you be a witch."

She looked around and didn't find what she wanted, so she let Hai Lan out.

"Help me find a beehive and bring it here with the nest and the bees."

Hailan didn't ask anything, just nodded and left.

Su Nuan tied the hemp rope aside and threw some stones and pebbles into the hole first. After the water flow slowed down, he poured in cement. After it was level with the stone, Su Nuan wiped it with his hand, so that it looked like no hole had been drilled.

Blocking the water outlet is the first step, and the second step is to expand the original spring outlet to allow more water to flow.

She found the spring and discovered that the terrain here was a bit high.

If it is groundwater, then drilling holes in low-lying areas can allow the water to flow very quickly and supply drinking water to the entire village.

She said, "Space Spirit, please help me find a water source. You helped me find a great place in the Northland."

The space spirit said: "This is a trivial matter. Plants are very sensitive to water sources."

Of course Su Nuan knew this, but she said that it was not possible and she had to find it out.

She took the space spirit to look for a more suitable water source near the spring.

After walking for more than half an hour, we found a stone groove half a mile away from the spring. If the groove was filled with water, it could be used as a small fish pond.

But there is no suitable water source here, and you need to walk another hundred feet to the east.

Su Nuan dug a trench on the ground and placed hollowed-out stones in it as pipes.

It was almost dark when they finished their work, and Su Nuan hurriedly dug down to the water source.

Su Nuan dug a square pool, smeared it with the remaining cement, and waited for the cement to dry in fifteen minutes before continuing to dig.

Water came out in almost two shovelfuls, so she enlarged the outlet and covered it with gravel and sand.

A piece of rock is placed on top and the gaps are blocked with cement.

In this way, the outlet is sealed, and water flows into the groove of the large rock through the stone pipe.

When the water in the stone trough is full, it will not overflow, and it will automatically fill up again when the water level is low.

Su Nuan said: "The water now is enough for the people in their village."

The Space Spirit said, "If we carry water during off-peak hours, it won't be a problem."

After completing these, Su Nuan smiled and said, "Okay, let's go back and claim the credit."

The space spirit asked in surprise, "Going back to take credit? Aren't you going to ruin Su Zhen's good fortune?"

Su Nuan nodded and said, "Yes, I have to go back first. I'll do tomorrow's things tomorrow."

Space Spirit was speechless. He felt that this was too casual. What if something unexpected happened?

Su Nuan ignored it and happily went down the mountain to find the village chief.

The village chief saw her covered in mud and asked in surprise, "What have you been doing?"

Su Nuan smiled and said, "I saw that my sister was having a hard time drawing water, so I thought about finding a new source of water. It turned out that the water here is very shallow, so I can just dig a few times and get some water."

The village chief was afraid that Su Nuan would destroy the spring on the mountain, so he picked up a bucket and walked out.

"I'm just going to get some water and go up to the mountain to have a look."

Su Nuan picked up another bucket and said, "Let's go."

No nonsense, seeing is believing.

When the village chief reached the mountain and found that there was no problem with the spring, he breathed a sigh of relief and scooped water little by little with a wooden ladle.

There is a small pit as big as a head below the spring. It takes a cup of tea to fill it with water, and most of it can be scooped out with just one ladle.

Su Nuan frowned and said, "Village Chief, don't you want to take a look at the new water source over there?"

The village chief nodded and put down the bucket. "Let's go and take a look."

Su Nuan simply carried the bucket. The village chief wanted to say something but was afraid that Su Nuan would be unhappy, so he didn't say it.

When they arrived at the new water reservoir, Su Nuan directly went in with a bucket and scooped out two buckets of water.

"That's so fast!"

However, the village chief was stunned, his mouth was unable to close and his eyes were wide open.

Su Nuan put the bucket down, waited for a while, and couldn't help but push the village chief.

The village chief finally came to his senses, "This, this, this..."

Su Nuan shrugged innocently and said, "I just dug a few times. You know, people over here all farm, and this kind of land needs water, so everyone will look for a water source."

"I just don't know if this amount of water is enough for you. If not, I'll come back next time to dig a well for you and bring the water to the village."

The village chief looked at her in shock, "Can you... lead them to the village?"

Su Nuan nodded. "That's very simple. We can divert water from lower places to higher places. The village is much lower than this place, so why can't we divert it?"

The easier she made finding and diverting water sound, the harder Su Zhen's performance would become.

The village chief suddenly grabbed Su Nuan's hand and said excitedly, "I want to propose to you."
