Chapter 1567: Imagination and Fabrication...

Chapter 1567: Made up out of thin air.

After leading the flock of animals and birds for more than a hundred miles in one breath, he escaped from the jungle area and came to the hilly grassland area in the center of New South Wales. Jiang Hao remembered that on the map, there was originally a small lake here, more than ten acres in size. It is a rare natural water resource nearby.

But after Jiang Hao arrived, he discovered that there was only a mud pond left in the small lake that was originally more than ten acres.

Australia has an arid climate. There is a lot of Gobi Desert in the center. Coupled with the high temperature and drought for several months, the small lake has gradually dried up. The crocodiles in the lake have exposed their backs and are flopping in the mud ponds.

There are a large number of animals surrounding the pond, but they dare not go down because of the gathering of crocodiles. This scene is very similar to the pond in the African savannah during the dry season in the animal world.

Animals can go several days without eating, and most of them are herbivores here and can eat the surrounding vegetation. But if they don't drink water for several days, all these animals will die of thirst, which is a terrible thing.

The little water left now may not be enough for one person to rescue the beasts and birds.

He had worked so hard to bring them here, how could he just watch them die of thirst here, saving them to the end? Jiang Hao looked at the pond, thinking about a solution in his mind.

Something suddenly occurred to me.

Using the Unearthing Escape Technique, his body burrowed into the ground and sank all the way down. After descending forty or fifty meters, he found an underground river. The amount of water in the underground river was not small, almost the same as a small river. Jiang Haoxin said that he had guessed it right.

No matter how arid the place is, there are many hidden underground rivers. Taklimakan, one of the ten largest deserts, has underground rivers and people dug karez wells. When Jiang Hao was in the Western Regions, many people in the Western Regions relied on karez wells for their lives.

Although Australia is arid, it is far from the Taklimakan. After finding the underground river, Jiang Hao thought about how to get the water up. He suddenly thought of a talisman he had learned in Liaozhai World.

That kind of talisman is called the "Spring Talisman", and its function is to make the water from the ground spurt up, which is very useful for digging wells to collect water.

To be honest, when he saw this kind of talisman, he just thought it was not very useful, at least it was of no use to him. However, he had always adhered to the principle of "doing more than one thing" and kept it in mind.

Now he feels that in this case, using the 'Fountain Talisman' is absolutely appropriate. Therefore, there is no useless skill, it just depends on where it is used. A skill that usually seems useless may be used somewhere. Can play a life-saving role.

When he moved his hand, there was an extra jade tablet.

"Junjun!"

Chunjun's sword flew out of Dantian and started carving on the jade tablet. The Quanyong Talisman was only an intermediate talisman. Although Jiang Hao had not practiced it before, it was not difficult for him to draw the intermediate talisman at all now.

After the jade talisman was carved, it was fixed at the bottom of the underground river by hand, and the Chunjun Sword was released. The Chunjun Sword shot out and rotated up, drilling a hole as thick as an arm in the earth and rocks, and penetrated directly from the bottom of the pool.

The next moment, Jiang Hao followed him out of the ground, and Chunjun Sword flew back to his Dantian.

Pinch the spell with your hands, and recite the spring mantra in your mouth, "All the magic will bring blessings, and the spring will flow to the earth."

Under the spell, the spring talisman was activated, and a column of water gushes out from the ground. A large amount of spring water gurgled out of the originally dry mud pond in the center. It only took 2 hours for the originally dry mud pond to turn into a new one again. Return to the small lake.

And with the current amount of water, given a little more time, the area of ​​the small lake should become larger than before, enough for the animals here to drink.

When the thirsty animals around saw the water, they rushed to the lake to drink water. The birds also jumped down and took a few sips of the pure spring water. The small lake suddenly came alive, with birds and beasts everywhere.

The spring talisman is blessed by Jiang Hao's spiritual power and can run continuously for two or three years. It will expire after two or three years. By then, Jiang Hao estimates that the ecology here should have returned to normal.

At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Jiang Hao's mind.

"Ding~~ Congratulations to the collector, you rescued animals, saved a lot of lives, and gained 1859 merit points. Please keep up your efforts."

Jiang Hao was pleasantly surprised. Saving animals also had merit points, more than 1,800 points. Although it was not much, it was an unexpected surprise.

I just saved one animal at the fire spot. There are still many fire spots. If I save them all, it will be a big income.

Jiang Hao was even more motivated this time.

After settling these animals, Jiang Hao flew to another place. At another fire scene, he rescued hundreds of thousands more animals using the same method, and then found a suitable place to settle them.

In a desert depression, Jiang Hao dug directly into the ground to get water, and soon formed a small lake here. As long as there is water, most animals can survive.

He also saw some hunting between animals, birds catching mice and foxes catching rabbits. Jiang Hao did not interfere in these because it was the way of nature.

In five consecutive days, Jiang Hao rescued more than a dozen batches of no less than three to four million animals, for which he earned more than 20,000 merit points.

However, Jiang Hao discovered that the fires in Australia were burning more and more fiercely and were already spreading outward from New South Wales. However, the Australian government did not do much and seemed to sit back and do nothing, allowing the wildfires to spread.

Jiang Hao thought for a while and decided to send a warning to the Australian government. During this period, he also shot a lot of video materials and took out his notebook to edit.

That afternoon, a video appeared on the Internet around the world, with the title: "Jiang Hao warned of Australia's fire crisis, please don't sit idly by and ignore it!"

Since the last incident in Japan, Jiang Hao has become a global celebrity. As soon as this video came out, it immediately attracted people's attention. Major media websites have pinned it to the top. Many people clicked on the video. It seems that they don't know what warnings and warnings Jiang Hao issued. prophecy.

The video begins with scenes of various fires, soaring flames, a red-hot sky, thick smoke covering the sky, people covering their mouths and noses and running away, countless animals struggling in the sea of ​​​​fire, and countless burnt animal carcasses.

Jiang Hao appeared in the camera, with the sea of ​​​​fire in the background, and he said in a heavy voice, "I am in Australia now, and I see scenes in the sea of ​​​​fire in front of me. Countless people have been forced to flee their homes, and countless animals have been killed in the sea of ​​​​fire.

I want to tell the Australian government that although the fire is only in New South Wales, if it is not controlled, it will spread. I have a premonition that the fire will spread throughout Australia, and it will be a disaster by then. "

"If the fires really spread across the entire territory, more than 500 million animals will be affected. The already rare Australian small marsupials, koalas, birds, platypus populations, etc., may face annihilation."

"The death of 500 million animals is estimated to take 100 years to return to today's levels. It will be a heavy blow to global biodiversity. We also ask the Australian government to be more vigilant and pay attention."

Jiang Hao’s figure of 500 million is not nonsense, but has a scientific basis. According to data from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), in most parts of Australia, there are an average of 17.5 mammals, 20.7 birds, and 129.5 birds per hectare of land. Reptiles.

These figures are then multiplied by the area of ​​land burned by the fire to get the damage data to the animals. Although it is impossible to burn all of them, a large part of them will be burned to death.

If the whole of Australia was caught in a fire, 500 million animals would be burned to death, let alone Jiang Hao. I am afraid it would be even more terrifying than this number.

Then Jiang Hao continued: "The continued burning of Australian fires will also cause other problems, that is, they will affect the natural environment. The fires will produce a large amount of smoke, but the current smoke area is already 10 million square kilometers, enough to cover the entire Australia. At the same time, the fire will also emit a large amount of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide, which may exceed the total annual carbon dioxide emissions of the world. This will be another heavy blow to global temperature rise and waste the previous efforts of countries around the world in environmental protection. "

"So I hope the Australian government will take it seriously and not sit back and let the fire continue to spread and cause greater harm to the world."

Originally, people from other countries in the world paid little attention to the fires in Australia. After all, Australia is an isolated island, and fires will not affect other countries.

Moreover, the current wildfires are only in one state, and not many people have died. Only trees have been burned. To be honest, they are not serious. The Australian government itself does not pay much attention to them, let alone people from other countries.

There were only one or two reports before, but no one paid much attention to it.

But as soon as Jiang Hao's video came out, it immediately attracted global attention, mainly because Jiang Hao is so famous now.

"The master of prophecy went to Australia again. I think the wildfires are nothing. Australian wildfires will come once every few years, and they will pass away. They shouldn't cause much damage. Australia is used to it."

"Jiang Hao predicted that fires would burn all over Australia. Let's wait and see if the prediction comes true!"

"If according to Jiang Hao, fires spread throughout Australia, it will indeed have a great impact on the natural environment."

"Many animals were burned to death in the picture. The kangaroo jumping in the sea of ​​​​fire, the koala burned on the eucalyptus tree, and the bird swept down from the sky by the fire. I feel that they are so pitiful."

"There are so many animals without water. I really don't know how they are supposed to survive. The Australian government should respond as soon as possible instead of sitting idly by."

Just a few hours after Jiang Hao's video was released, the Australian government held an emergency press conference to respond to Jiang Hao's video.

The spokesperson said with a serious face: "First of all, the Australian government condemns the accusations made by Jiang Hao in the video. The fire is a natural formation. The Australian government has now dispatched a large number of firefighters to fight the fire day and night. The Australian government's actions are rapid. , and also has the ability to control the spread of fire.”

"The video also says that fires will cause air pollution and cause global warming. These remarks are completely imaginary, fabricated, made out of thin air, kept secret, speechless, and hopeless."
