I, Seimei, can't be an audiophile

Chapter 40 Naturally Won't Betray You

Li Qingming was a little dizzy when he heard that it would take nearly a month to reach the destination by bullock cart.

Let me explain in advance that the main means of transportation in this era was bullock carts, because the wheels were not made of rubber. If the wooden wheels were pulled by a horse-drawn cart, it would be too bumpy, while the bullock carts were relatively stable.

As for riding a horse, don't even think about it, look at those time-travel novels about urbanites and thieves who can gallop the world by riding a horse, it's just nonsense!

You will know it once you ride a horse. When a horse walks, its spine swings in an S-shape, coupled with bumps up and down, it is like riding on a swimming snake. If you are not careful, you will fall off!

Even if there is a saddle, it is still a hell mode for those who have not ridden before. The calf can't clamp the horse's belly, and the hand can't pull the rein.

Even if you can do it, try it for a whole day, you may only be able to maintain the shape of squatting on the toilet, with severe abrasions on your calves and hips, so painful that you just want to scold your mother.

——How could such an inelegant thing happen to the great Onmyoji!Therefore, the bullock cart is your only choice!

Then if you think about the distance between two points, you will find that you may walk faster than a bullock cart, and a cow that can pull a cart has a gentler temperament. If you pull a cart to take you away, can it be faster, haha.

Ma Cang Ye Wang and Mishima Lun were not surprised by the time calculation of the journey, and even thought that it would be a relatively short distance to get there in one month, and they had already planned for a long-distance trip.

Li Qingming didn't think so. He wanted to solve this matter quickly. After a month had passed, the walking phenomenon of the gods might have disappeared long ago. Why would they do divination!

The river water is frozen today, thawed out tomorrow, and then frozen again the day after tomorrow. If it really disappears by then, whose problem is it?Of course it's their problem as Onmyojis!

And riding a bullock cart for a month, he might vomit all kinds of meat and vegetables.For a person who is accustomed to modern means of transportation, it is too difficult for him to go from extravagance to frugality all at once.

So Li Qingming made a decisive decision, and after making an appointment with Ye Wang and Mishima Lun, he directly called a Didilong car to drive them to their destination.Comrade Oboroche is very professional, as long as you tell him the place names and topographic features, he will know the place.

"Speaking of which, Master Qingming, thank you very much, this order is free for you."

Li Qingming wondered: "Thank me for what?"

Oboroche chuckled: "Didn't you introduce Oboroche to Hell last time? That later became my cousin's partner. They will get married soon, and I will invite you when the time comes."

Li Qingming couldn't help being happy for that lady: "That's great! But I was a little surprised, I thought she liked handsome guys."

After all, it wasn't born as Oborosha, it was human before.

Hazy Lane: "Ah, my sister-in-law also said that the previous failure in love made her realize that no matter how handsome she looks, it's of no use. It's better to be kind to her."

Li Qingming nodded in agreement: "That's exactly the truth."

Hazy Che continued to praise: "Also, last time Master Seimei said that my car was too easy to shake, and suggested installing seats, seat belts and armrests, the user experience of my passengers has skyrocketed, and now everyone is rushing to take my car car, my cousin also learned how to install it.”

Li Qingming nodded: "This is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning."

He is also for his own user experience!To be honest, sitting in a car without seats and seat belts really feels insecure!For example, it will be used this time?

Oboroche asked casually: "Master Seimei, are the two who are with you your friends?"

Li Qingming quickly introduced: "Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't introduce it. These two are excellent onmyojis. This one is Ma Cang Ye Wang, and the other is Mishima Lun."

Ye Wang nodded cautiously: "Hello."

——You have such a good relationship with monsters!What did the monster say, introducing Oborosha to hell?The rumors about Oboroche in Heian-kyo before are indeed true, as expected of Master Seimei!

The usually lazy Mishima Wheel was also very serious in the car: "Hello."

——Not only can you drive monsters to serve you, but it also has something to do with hell!As expected of Master Seimei!

Li Qingming didn't know that when he first let these two people enter the belly of the hazy car with him, the two of them were already extremely shocked. Now in their minds, Master Qingming is absolutely omnipotent!

In addition, the car is actually flying. For Li Qingming, a modern person who has traveled across the oceans by plane, this is not the first time he has been a trapeze man, so he naturally looks very calm.But for Ye Wang and Mishima Lun, it was the first time to fly while sitting in the belly of a monster.

But men are like this, they like the feeling of wind, especially flying makes people feel cool.Ye Wang and Mishima Lun both fell in love with this feeling.

——In the future, I will definitely modulate (manufacture) a flying shikigami (dharma tool)!

The two thought the same way.

Li Qingming didn't know that he had implanted the subconscious mind that loves flying into the two future excellent warlocks. After arriving at the location, he thanked the car and made an appointment for the car to come back to pick them up. Please contact the local authorities.

As a matter of course, they received a grand welcome. Although the local department didn't see the oboros, they heard the story of the three people suddenly appearing on the road, so they naturally believed that this was the magic power of the Onmyoji, and they respected the three of them extremely.

——Worthy of being a great onmyoji, who can go to the sky and enter the earth, and suddenly appear thousands of miles away!

People can't help but think so.

Li Qingming, who thought that he only took a taxi, and even thought that a taxi was not too special in this era because he had seen a female taxi, was completely unaware of how exaggerated he had done in the eyes of others.

Linking with local departments and being responsible for preliminary arrangements, etc., which required a sense of ritual, were all handled by Mishima Lun.Li Qingming took Ye Wang to the scene where the lake was frozen to check.

A large area of ​​the lake is covered with ice and snow, only the 'roads' extending from both banks are clearly visible, and the raised ice layer forms ice crystal uplifts. This scene extends beyond the eyes and winds away. The scenery is extremely magnificent!

The uncanny workmanship of nature is amazing, and it is no wonder that people think it is a masterpiece of the gods. No matter who looks at such a shocking scenery, they will involuntarily sigh at the mighty power of nature.

Wang Ye wanted to get a closer look, but Li Qingming quickly reminded him: "It's dangerous. Before confirming the thickness of the ice layer, it's best not to go too deep."

Ye Wang nodded, and after approaching cautiously, he squatted down to observe the cracking of the ice.

"It's amazing, as if a huge creature is about to break out of the ice under the lake."

Li Qingming couldn't help chuckling: "This is a natural phenomenon, and it only happened because of the huge temperature difference between day and night."

He popularized the basic knowledge of physics to Ye Wang, and when he was talking, he couldn't help but say a few more words.

"In areas where the temperature difference between day and night is large, the yield of rice is relatively high. Judging the harvest by observing the uplift is actually using this principle. The higher the uplift, the more obvious it is, indicating the greater the temperature difference."

That's right, this is Li Qingming's conclusion.

Seimei-sama's calculation method is too complicated!And there is absolutely no need to investigate the direction of the hot and cold air, they only need to know whether the harvest is good or not.

After staying up all night studying and still unable to understand Master Qingming's calculation formula, Li Qingming found another way. He finally remembered where he had heard before that the temperature difference between day and night would affect the growth of plants.

When plants are performing photosynthesis, they also need to breathe, and the intensity of respiration is directly related to the temperature.

Everyone knows that plants respire at night, and the higher the temperature, the stronger the respiration, and the plants will consume their own energy.

Therefore, the temperature at night is low, but it will allow plants to accumulate energy, so putting it on food crops will increase the yield.

——Li Qingming is now very grateful to his elementary school nature teacher. This is just a natural knowledge that the teacher said casually at the time, but he did not expect to save him now.

The phenomenon of ice cracking is a method of observing the local temperature difference between day and night, which is generally limited by the local geographical conditions.

In other words, the temperature difference between day and night is large in winter, and so is most of the harvest season.

Of course, there must be special areas, but most of the places with large temperature differences between day and night belong to inland climates.

Unless there is a typhoon, or the influence of cold and hot air masses from afar, there will not be much change.

Moreover, the freezing also proves that the winter is extremely cold, which has a good inhibitory effect on insect pests. The complete freezing of insect eggs can reduce the pest problem in the coming year.

To expand it, it was too complicated for Ye Wang in the Heian era, and Li Qingming directly stated the conclusion.Of course, he added it just in case.

"There are also unexpected situations, but most of the cases are like this. This is a natural law. In order to confirm my idea, I need to observe the nearby terrain and ask the locals if there is a seasonal change in the wind direction, which will affect the temperature and food production. "

Ye Wang nodded half-understood, even if he didn't understand, write it down first, this is Master Qingming's teaching.

Ordinary people treat it as a family secret, but Master Qingming bestowed it on him, and he remembered this kindness.

After that, Li Qingming took some time to confirm the terrain and wind direction according to what he said.

For example, if a southeast wind blows in winter and a northwest wind blows in summer in a place, and there is a mountain at the same position as the wind direction, it will naturally block the wind, resulting in a different climate in winter and summer.

In addition, whether the water volume of rivers and lakes will be affected by the seasons, rainfall, etc. are directly related to temperature.The specific heat of water is different from that of land. If the amount of water is affected, the local temperature will definitely fluctuate.

After collecting geographical and natural data as a whole, Li Qingming repeated calculations to determine that there are no other major factors affecting the temperature. This is also a relatively inland place without typhoons. He also confirmed with the local people that the temperature difference between day and night in summer is also very large in previous years. Then Judging from this, the grain output should be good.

There is no way, if they, as onmyojis, say they will have a good harvest, but they actually don't, it will be extremely detrimental to their reputation.

Li Qingming finally thought that this might be the real reason why Mr. Baoxian asked other onmyojis to do divination, in case something happened, someone would be responsible.

But this is too unfair to Mr. Ye Wang, and it is impossible to change people temporarily. Anyone who does anything has a record in Yinyang Liao.That's why he wanted to confirm all the factors and give the most possible guess.

The three of them spent nearly a week in the local area before the various etiquettes for divination were ready. This was because Mishima knew that Li Qingming didn't want to waste too much time, so he replaced it with the simplest rituals and props.

On that day, Ma Cangye Wang held wicker and wore the onmyoji formal attire to perform divination in the cracked ice.

"It's good luck."

Hearing the result of Ye Wang's divination, Li Qingming's heart finally fell.

Great, hope next year will be a bumper year.
