League of Legends: Chasing Beauty Song
Chapter 9
A powerful hero can determine the direction of a war, but it can never determine the outcome of a war.
——Reflections on Carrying Water
In the end, Luo Xia followed his boss to work in the farmland. As for the story of the nine-tailed fox, let’s talk about it in our free time.
The Ionians' pursuit of natural beauty has reached a morbid level. The house uses several trees that have stopped growing but are not dead as the theme structure, covering them with a layer of fibrous short grass, and paving them with slightly processed The entire roof is completed with stone flakes, and the walls are also processed stone flakes. Some houses are themed with huge dead old trees, with houses carved out of them like woodpeckers. However, the farmland looked different. It was artificially leveled land, which gave Rorschach a certain change in his understanding of the rigid Ionians.
The family's farmland is on a large sloping land. Riwen has plowed it with a plow and planted reed seeds. All that needs to be done in the farmland is to fetch water from the river not far away and irrigate it. This year's vintage is not good, it has not rained for two months.
From here you can see the primitive agricultural state of Ionia. Although natural magic is abundant, planting and breeding are very primitive. Slash-and-burn farming is inappropriate. After all, setting fire to the land is not a common practice in Ionia. is considered to disrupt equilibrium.
What a fucking balance. Rorschach kept complaining. The kindest people in this land live a very miserable life. The result of wandering on the line of food and clothing is that the population will not increase. If the population is insufficient, there will be no more people. People are freed from agricultural labor to engage in other production and creation. Therefore, all countries in Valoran, except for Freljord in the northern snowfields, have entered the era of magic industry, while here and Shurima are still in the primitive agricultural era.
Being abandoned by the times is destined to perish. This is an eternal truth. The invasion of Noxus was thwarted this time, partly because Ionia did have several heroes who could defeat thousands of people, but partly because of the power struggle within Noxus. After the internal power was stabilized, Nok Sars is definitely coming back.
This is what Rorschach said to Riven while sitting at the dinner table after returning from carrying water to water the fields. Although Asa and Shava didn't like Rorschach saying that balance was not good, they heard what Good Son said next. Although they didn't quite understand it, it seemed to make sense.
"There is no doubt about it." Riven rarely refuted Rorschach's words, but asked:"How are you sure that Ionia will not win the next war? Those mighty heroes are not dead!"
"Are heroes fighting wars? Luo Xia shook his head:"No, he is still the most ordinary soldier." Soldiers with advanced armor and coordination are more effective and have lower casualties than soldiers without armor and in disarray. Heroes can kill many ordinary soldiers, but their magic will be exhausted, or they will be held back by enemy heroes, and all their own soldiers will be wiped out. So tell me, can heroes still defend their land?"
Riwen opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything.
"A powerful hero can determine the direction of a war, but it can never determine the outcome of a war." Rorschach smiled slightly:"Actually, there are ready-made examples!"
"Tell me," Riwen felt that what Luo Xia just said made sense.
"Like Piltover! Rorschach took a sip of porridge and continued:"It's just a state, right next to Noxus. Does Noxus dare to invade?" Absolutely not, the cost is too high. The magic cannon created by Hex Technology is enough to make Noxus drink a cup. They can block Noxus within the city wall without paying too many lives of soldiers. Come on, this is the power of technology"
"Yes," Riven sighed:"In the battle at sea, Noxus's warships are unbeatable, but Ionia doesn't even have a decent ship!"
"Let's eat," Shava urged, looking at the two people who fell into silence.
Asa was silent, seeming to be thinking about something. After dealing with two people, he went back to the room.
Riven was eating and suddenly asked Luo Xia :"Why do you suddenly have these thoughts?"
"Carrying water today is worse than death," Rorschach said casually.
"I'll go tomorrow, you can rest," Shava chuckled, a little dotingly
"Mom, he's talking nonsense." Riven hit Rorschach on the head with a spoon:"Honestly, what do you want to do?"
"Oh, build a waterwheel." Rorschach raised his head, looked at Shava, and smiled:"The one that can automatically divert water to the fields will be very convenient!"
Rorschach has seen something like a waterwheel. Its structure is very simple. Rorschach believes that it is not difficult to make such a thing in this era. The most important thing is that this thing does not destroy the so-called equilibrium.
So in the afternoon, Rorschach He also gave up his practice and concentrated on making water carts. Some of the tools he didn't have, but they couldn't hold up a sword master to use his sword to smooth the board. Luo Xia found that in the process, he could actually practice how to use the sword in his hand more accurately.
The other three people in the family sat under the eaves and watched Rorschach working. Asa offered to help several times, but Rorschach refused. Only Lulu was busy helping. As the sun set, a group of people A very large waterwheel was built. Rorschach tried to turn it. It was OK, but there was no bearing or anything like that, and it would make a squeaking sound when it turned.
"Is this good?"Asa looked at the rough-made water wheel, not sure that it could send water from a low place to a high place.
"There is no problem at all." Luo Xia patted the waterwheel and said,"There is still time, let's install it by the river and try it!"
The family came to the river in the setting sun. Luo Xia put down the waterwheel on his shoulders. After calculating the height difference, he found a suitable location to place the waterwheel by the river and asked Riwen to move a few large pieces. The stone is fixed, the bracket is fixed, and the opened Minggan (actually a slightly different bamboo, called Minggan by the Ionians) is installed on the shelf, one end is connected under the lifting tube, and the other end is extended to the edge of the farmland..
The three natives of Rune Continent stared with big eyes, watching the water flowing slowly. The waterwheel began to move, and the water in the bucket was poured into the Mingxuan and flowed into the fields.
"Iza, did you steal this from the gods? Shava's eyes widened and she murmured.
"That's great, that's great." Asa spun around in circles:"All the dry land in the village can be turned into irrigated fields."
This simple man thought of everyone's interests, and Luo Xia felt warm in his heart.
Riven was shocked in her heart, but she still had questions:"Would it not work if the fields were higher than the river bank?"
"It can be built bigger, but if it is too high, then we can only consider building water conservancy projects." Luo Xia nodded and said:"In fact, it is easy to transform nature, but it is not allowed here!"
"You mean you have something better?"Asa heard the meaning of Luo Xia's words and asked hurriedly
"I think it will make the people in the village live a better life. After all, magic cannot solve survival problems." Rorschach sighed:"Dad, the change in lifestyle is not important, the key is the change in thinking.!"
It's not easy to change the thoughts that have been passed down in a country for thousands of years!
Rorschach didn't think so much. The Kongde family is kind and tolerant. They all have true love for him, his former enemy. He just wants them to live a better life. , that’s it!
