009 The water transport team returned to the village
As soon as the two entered the village, they saw Xiaobao, the child who had been looking for Qi Shangyi to ask for water, running over excitedly, "Sister, sister, my father has come back from carrying water." ”
"The water crew is back?" Qi Shangyi glanced at the saint with a smile, and the two hurriedly walked inside, and at the entrance at the other end of the village, the villagers were lining up to divide the water.
Mo Qi was also on the side, and when he saw Qi Shangyi and Shengshang, he hurriedly walked over, "Shengshang!" ”
"Why are you with them?" Qi Shangyi asked.
"I happened to meet on the road," Mo Qi said and looked at the saint, "The saint of the village should already know about the drought, right?" ”
"Hmm." Shengshang nodded, "Let the person who took the lead come in, and ask him a few words." ”
"Yes." Mo Qi agreed to turn around and ask Futian, who was organizing the water distribution.
The old village chief led everyone to the ancestral hall, and the saint asked Futian about the water transportation.
"We have a total of ten ox carts, and there is a large wooden barrel fixed on the cart, and the water for one of the carts is only enough for the road, and there are only nine carts of water when we come back," Futian carefully explained the process of transporting water, "The rivers in the mountains have dried up, and there are some hidden mountain springs with water, but the carriages cannot enter, so they can only be brought out by manpower, and it takes a lot of time to fill these waters, and this time it takes half a month." ”
"I saw that there was water on the other side of the mountain, why didn't there be a drop of water on this side?" Qi Shangyi asked suspiciously.
Fukuda shook his head, "I also took people to the west of Liancheng Mountain, where the trees are lush and the river is turbulent, but the east is already a dry river, and even the plants in the mountains have begun to show a withered yellow state, some people say that it may have touched the mountain god." ”
"If there is a mountain god in this world, there must be something strange in it." Qi Shangyi muttered and looked at Futian, "Brother Fu, can you draw me a simple map of Liancheng Mountain, and mark a few springs and river valleys." ”
"Naturally, there's no problem with that." Fukuda agreed.
Ye Cangjue glanced at Qi Shangyi, and secretly wondered in his heart, what does this woman want to do?
At this time, Qi Shangyi was thinking about his little Jiujiu in his heart, let me, a little science expert, solve the theory of ghosts and gods for you and find a way to relieve the disaster.
Qi Shangyi and they were arranged to live in the courtyard behind the ancestral hall, Ye Cangjue and Mo Qi were in the east courtyard, Qi Shangyi was in the west courtyard, and it was in the dead of night that Qi Shangyi quietly got up and got dressed, and climbed out of the window with Phantom Sakura in his arms.
"Phantom Sakura, you know how big you are getting bigger?" Qi Shangyi touched Phantom Sakura's forehead and whispered, "Get bigger." ”
Phantom Sakura hurriedly jumped to the ground and became bigger, Qi Shangyi climbed up with a smile, and one man and one beast went into the air, Qi Shangyi lay on Phantom Sakura, and looked sideways at the starry sky, "It's so beautiful." ”
"Where are you going?" A voice suddenly came out from behind him, and Qi Shangyi was startled and almost fell off Phantom Sakura, but fortunately, Shengshang reached out in time and grabbed her arm.
Qi Shangyi stabilized his figure, glanced at the Holy Lord sitting on Wubai's body, and glared at him resentfully, "What is the Holy Lord doing here?" ”
"Wait for the priest." Shengshang's eyes looked ahead, "Thinking that the priest must have a plan to find Na Futian to ask for a map, Gu waited here in advance, and lived up to expectations, the priest really still cares about the people." ”
"Anyway, it's because I didn't ask for rain, so I'm more or less responsible." Qi Shangyi said as he reached out and touched the right side of Phantom Sakura, signaling Phantom Sakura to stay away from Wubai, "It's you, what are you doing here, I don't want to rely on your strength." ”
"Lone didn't say he wanted to help you, but he was worried that the priest would escape, so he went with him to watch." As he spoke, Ye Cangjue motioned for Wu Bai to fly forward, Qi Shangyi glared at his back, and hurriedly asked Phantom Sakura to follow.
The two of them landed in the valley at the bottom according to the map markings, Ye Cangjue looked around, turned back to Qi Shangyi and said, "After entering the mountain, there is not even moonlight, so we should not go forward at night." As he spoke, he took out a fire fold and picked up some ancient leaves and lit them.
Qi Shangyi looked at the dark surroundings, nodded, sat down by the fire, looked at the night cangjue who was carefully picking up the dead branches and put them on the fire, and suddenly smiled faintly, "I didn't expect you to do this?" ”
Ye Cangjue glanced at Qi Shangyi, sat down opposite Qi Shangyi, and put up a few thick branches in his hand, "You can't even make a fire, how can you govern the country." He raised his head as he spoke, staring blankly at Qi Shangyi for a few seconds.
Qi Shangyi was stunned for a moment, and looked down at himself, "What, I have dirty on my face?" ”
Ye Cangjue shook his head, "It's okay, there is still some time before dawn, you can sleep for a while, Lone will look around." ”
Qi Shangyi nodded slightly, turned around and touched the phantom cherry blossom behind him, and slept quietly next to it.
Ye Cangjue waited for a while on the fire, slowly raised his head, and looked at Qi Shangyi nestled in Phantom Sakura's body, is she really fake? In the past, she was steady, quiet, intelligent but indifferent. Although she has lost her spiritual power now, loves to cause trouble, and always opposes herself, it makes people want to protect her even more. That day, she suddenly said her mother's last words, and there was a tingling in his heart, all along, he and her were like two pieces of ice, she never showed weakness in front of him, and he never took the initiative to care, but now she said it, is it accusing him of not fulfilling his promise to protect her for life?
Qi Shangyi fell asleep and moved, opened his eyes slightly, but just saw that the saint was looking at him in a daze, so he was stunned for a moment and sat up suddenly.
"What's wrong?" She sat up suddenly, but pulled the night secret that was immersed in memories back to reality.
"I can't sleep well when you're staring at me like this," Qi Shangyi straightened his clothes, suddenly thought of a bad idea, moved to Ye Cangjue's side, and asked with a smile: "You can't like me, right?" ”
Ye Cangjue stared at Qi Shangyi in surprise, why did she ask with a smile if she was so **, it was really fake, right?
Qi Shangyi smiled and continued: "Just the way you stare at me in a daze, a fool can see it, so don't be embarrassed." Qi Shangyi has always guessed that the saint and the original owner have lived together since childhood, and they are scheduled family affairs, and they will definitely fall in love with each other, but they have not inherited the feelings of the original owner, so they took this opportunity to gossip very excitedly, just like gossiping about other people's things, completely forgetting that they are now porcelain Ji, "But I have bad news to tell you, I already have someone I like, he is more handsome than you and gentler than you." Speaking of this, Qi Shangyi was worried that he would say too much, and added, "Actually, you are quite handsome, but you are cold all day long, hey, don't talk about me, I guess there will be no girls like it in the future." ”
Ye Cangjue glanced at her and turned his head in other directions, "Lone is just wondering if you are a fake priest." ”
