Chapter 204: Hope
As he spoke, the clouds dispersed, and a full moon hung on it, and the soft moonlight shone on the mountains and on these people who traveled far away.
"Good sign, look at how bright the moon is, and it shines like day in the mountains, it really helps me!" Xiao Xiong excitedly pointed to the round and big moon.
"Haha, great, we're going to find water!" The team members took advantage of the night to advance into the mountains.
The storyteller leads the way in front of him, and everyone moves forward with confidence.
After about two or three mountains, I saw that the terrain was getting more and more open, "Oh, this is there!" He pointed to a misty place in the distance. Recommended reading: sm. s..
"Rush, go find water!" Dong Zhu ran forward excitedly.
"Slow down, watch out for the black dragon to swallow you," the man behind shouted to him.
"Old Xiao, if there is a dragon, I will catch it!" He shouted, ignoring it.
"Leave him alone, this man is young and vigorous, if he doesn't fall hard, he can't remember!" I don't know who is chattering behind me.
Before his words fell, he heard a "coo-dong", which was obviously the sound of Dong Zhu falling down.
"Oops, oops," he immediately heard his moaning, and listening to the sound, it was obvious that he had fallen in pain.
"Dong Zhu, Dong Zhu?" Xiao Xiong shouted loudly, "Did you fall into the pool?"
He took out his flashlight and immediately ran over, muttering as he ran, "If something goes wrong with the pillar, how can I explain it to Director Dong?" ”
Because the moon was bright, he didn't use a flashlight all the way. Frightened by Dong Zhu, he subconsciously took out his flashlight and shone it forward.
I saw a large area of green plants in front of me, because they were trampled on by everyone, emitting a strange smell.
"Stop, don't go any further!" Because of the use of a flashlight, he immediately found that there was a big pit in front of him, and because the surrounding area was overgrown with plants, it was tightly covered, and he would not find it when he walked to it, so the pillar would be planted.
"Dong Zhu, Dong Zhu?"
"I'm here," Xiao Xiong found that the pillar was sitting on the edge of the pit, looking dejected.
"Are you alright?"
"I'm fine, you come down, this pit is not deep," it seems, the pillar was just startled.
"What kind of place is this?" Xiao Xiong jumped, it was really not very tall, "How can there be such a big pit here?" ”
"yes, where is this spring? Where is the black dragon? The pillar looked disappointed,
"yes? This is the Black Dragon Pond in the biography? Isn't this just a dry pit? The villagers were already standing on the edge of the big pit, and every Rao face was extremely disappointed.
Because this depression is so obvious, "There are so many plants growing in the rush, why do you still use it?" There could be no spring water in this place. ”
"Don't speak, listen," Xiao Xiong lay on the ground, and seemed to hear a gurgling sound of running water, "There is water, there is water!" He shouted excitedly.
"Old Xiao, give me the flashlight," the pillar came to his senses again, and he got up with all his bones, not caring at all about the fall he had just made, and ran forward again.
This time, his excited voice was quickly heard.
"Old Xiao, I saw it, Old Xiao, come quickly," the pillar shouted loudly, "What a big spring, hahaha!" ”
"Oh, this is a good breath of water, huh?" Xiao Xiong had already run over. He saw that the clear spring was bubbling out.
"Come down and find the water!" He shouted excitedly.
It turned out that because of the great drought, the waterhole here has basically dried up, forming a big pit, and only this clear spring, it seems that it is not willing to be dried up, and is trying to bubble out of the water.
Although the Black Dragon Pond no longer exists, this spring water is enough for them to be inexhaustible.
"Here, fill up the water!" Dong Zhu shouted loudly. Although I fell just now, it was worth it to be able to find the clear spring water of my dreams.
"What does it smell like?" Xiao Xiong smelled the strange smell.
"What's the matter? Now my nose is full of the sweet taste of clear spring water, hahaha," Dong Zhu laughed happily, ignoring Xiao Xiong's question.
Everyone filled buckets of water until they had filled all the utensils they had brought.
"It's a pity, it's a pity to see such a good spring water flowing away in vain!" The pillar looks regretful, for a mountain village like theirs that lacks water, it is naturally a pity that the water flows in vain.
"Be content, nature, and we are not the only creatures?" Lao Xiao is funny.
"Well, that's right, then let it help other creatures, right? We're going back, and the kids are still waiting! ”
"That's it, hurry up and go back!" Although I smell this strange smell, because I am busy fetching water, how can I have time to think about this? Therefore, Xiao Xiong didn't take it too seriously.
But now it was different, he was on horseback, because he was white, his sight was excellent, and he was in a good mood, and he always remembered the things of the investigation.
Now that there was plenty of time, Xiao Xiong condescendingly and carefully observed.
"Don't, Director Dong is really right, the place where they live is indeed poor mountains and bad waters, but after walking through these mountains, the environment immediately becomes different," which made him very confused, "Why don't people here go out?" It's completely different from the outside world, huh? ”
"Zhuzi, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, why don't you live in the mountains and don't come out there?" He asked Dong Zhu, who was also a good swimmer.
"I heard from the old people that when the people of Dongjiaba first came to this place, they were just to avoid disasters and avoid pursuit. The ancestor seemed to have offended the imperial court, so he had to hide here. They are afraid of being found, so how dare they go out? No matter how wonderful the outside world is, no one will get out of this Dongjiaba, to be honest, for so many years, only my uncle has walked out of this mountain because he studied well and was forced by his grandfather,"
Dong Zhu explained carefully.
"And we can only honestly follow the ancient precepts, cultivate a few acres of dry land here, and raise our wives and children, no one will go out!"
"Oh, what about me!" Xiao Xiong then understood, "What do you think after the aqueduct is repaired?" ”
"After the aqueduct was repaired, the road was also built, and at that time I went to work outside, and I heard that the big city needs a lot of migrant workers!"
"Don't you see, your uncle is running back now, why are you still thinking about running out?" Xiao Xiong didn't understand.
"He ran back for the construction of his hometown, in the end, not to support the poor in his hometown? But if we can go out to work, we can't talk about being rich, but there is no problem with food and clothing, and my uncle doesn't have to run back! ”
"Then you didn't think about building a factory or something in your hometown?"
"The factory destroys the environment, and besides, we don't have any resources here, how can we build a factory?"
"Can you do handicraft processing? What damage does handmade things do to the environment? ”
"But where are the resources here?"
"Yes? See what that is? That's our hope! Xiao Xiong pointed into the distance....... read3;
