Chapter 71: Water
Tao Qini saw that the sky was dark, and the big and round moon rose, "It's almost fifteen again." Worriedly, he muttered to himself, "I don't know if Jiu Jiu can bring people over." ”
Blinking her eyes, shaking her head, this head was a little dizzy, her eyes were full of stars, and the water flow at her fingertips was getting smaller and smaller, Tao Qini hurriedly retracted it.
Holding her hands on the edge of the well, she slowed down, and it seemed that this water was not something she could take as much as she wanted, at least not for now.
Tao Qini looked down at the well, "It's almost enough." He sat down against the wall of the well.
Feeling that her strength had recovered, Tao Qini stood up, walked towards the outside of the city, looked at the big tree outside the city, kicked the trunk and climbed to the tree three or two, and threw the branches to the ground.
Tao Qini gathered the branches together and touched her body, "What if there is no hemp rope?" "Simply untie your belt, tie it with firewood, and make a mark as you go.
Just when Tao Fifteen and the others felt that the road was about to end, the tweet that had been leading the way in front of them suddenly accelerated and disappeared into the moon in the blink of an eye.
"This ...... What's going on? Tao Wufu unconsciously stopped and looked at the chirp without a trace, and his red eyes fell on Yao Changsheng and said, "Mr. Yao, what should I do now?" There was a thick nasal tone in his tone.
Jiu Jiu flew away, and there was no mark, and the girl couldn't find it.
The three members of the Tao family sat down on the ground as if they had lost their spirits, and they were anxious and cried in panic.
Even if Yao Changsheng thought about it, he couldn't think of a way.
In this vast dark night, in the empty wilderness, where did he find someone!
Just when the clouds of sorrow shrouded them, their hearts shook to the bottom, and the sultry wind could not warm their cold hearts.
"Dad, mother, why don't you leave?" Tao Qini's voice hit her eardrums like a heavenly sound.
Tao 15 and the others raised their heads, blinked and looked at the sound, and saw that Tao Qini seemed to be coming from the moon.
The bright moonlight sprinkled on her, like a layer of silver veil, looking at Xian'er, Xian'er's.
Shen stood up and ran towards her, with tears in his eyes, his facial muscles trembled, and the slap on his hand was raised, but he took Tao Qini into his arms.
"Where's this girl? I'm scared to death by you. Shen snorted and sobbed.
"It's okay, it's okay." Tao Qini's eyes were warm when she heard this, and her hands rubbed gently on her back, "It's okay, you see that I'm not good, I'm scared of you." Don't be afraid, don't be afraid! ”
Tao Fifteen and Tao Liuyi surrounded the two of them, wiped the corners of their eyes, and looked at the two of them happily.
Tao Qini looked at them and said, "I'll tell you good news, I've found water." ”
"What?" The three of them asked, looking at her excitedly with round eyes.
"You heard me right, I found a village in front of me, and there was a well with water in it." Tao Qini let go of Shen Shi and looked at them and said word by word.
"Let's go! Let's talk as we go. Yao Changsheng looked at them and urged.
The five of them got back on the road, and Tao Qini explained the ins and outs of the matter in detail.
"This tweet." Shen didn't know whether to thank it or hit it, "Scared my soul." ”
"You're going fast enough." Tao Qini looked at them in surprise and said.
"We waited until the sun went down and saw that you didn't come back, so we followed the mark you left behind." Yao Changsheng looked at her and explained.
"No wonder." Tao Qini nodded and said, "I have a mark now." As he walked, he pulled out the firewood he had planted in the ground, knocked off the dirt on it, and put it on the wheelbarrow.
"What are you doing with it?" Tao Liuyi looked at her in surprise and asked.
"Use it for a while." Tao Qini looked at them and smiled, "It can't be wasted." ”
Tao Fifteen They looked at her and shook their heads speechlessly, this one lacked firewood.
"By the way, do you see the tweet?" Tao Qini looked at them and remembered, and asked.
"Chirp, it suddenly sped up, and it was gone in the blink of an eye, I don't know where it flew?" Shen looked at her in surprise and said, "Didn't it look for you?" ”
"No, I didn't see it." Tao Qini said as she walked, pondered carefully, and when she received her father, she was very close to the village, and it was estimated that she had left them to guard the well.
As he spoke, he walked to Tao Qini's so-called village, Yao Changsheng looked at the rammed earth city wall on the periphery and smiled, "This is not a village, it looks like it should be the county government!" ”
"The county government?" Tao Qini looked at him in surprise and said, "I've been ...... for a dozen or so" The sudden brake swallowed back the word 'minute', and changed her words, "I walked around in a lap in the time of a stick of incense." ”
"That's right!" Yao Changsheng raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "How big do you think the county government is?" Looking at the dilapidated adobe road, "Look at this main road is wider than the official road, and there are probably two main roads in this county government." ”
"How do you know?" Tao Liuyi looked at him and asked curiously.
"Most of the castles were built in this way, with cross-sections, roads from north to south, and streets from east to west. Especially in the Central Plains, most of them are plains and square. Yao Changsheng looked at them and explained seriously, "It's dark now, and I can't see clearly, Ming'er is leading you to take a look." He pursed his lips and said in a dry voice, "I'm so thirsty." ”
"Let's go! Niel leads the way. Tao Fifteen immediately said when he heard this.
Quickened his pace and walked to the center of the city, saw the well in the moonlight in the distance, chirped and fell on the edge of the well, saw them coming, and fluttered his wings excitedly and pounced on Tao Qini.
"Oops!" Tao Qini pushed and refused with both hands, dodging the chirp that pounced on her, "My body can't stand you." ”
Seeing this, Chirp fell to the ground and whimpered...... He also looks injured, which is really pitiful.
Tao Liuyi and Yao Changsheng ran over excitedly and leaned down at the mouth of the well.
As a result, it was pitch black and couldn't see anything, Yao Changsheng shouted at them, "Hurry up and light the fire, you can't see anything." ”
"Let's see if this will work." Tao Qini took the firewood from the wheelbarrow, "I'll go get some dry grass again." ”
This withered grass was everywhere, Tao Qini directly picked up some withered grass and handed it to the Shen family.
Shen lit the fire, and when the firewood dried up, it was even easier to burn, and it lit up all of a sudden.
Yao Changsheng excitedly took the burning firewood, leaned into the well, looked at the fire reflected in the water, raised his eyes and said excitedly, "There is water, there is water." ”
"Hurry up and get the fire aside, and the ashes will fall into the well." Tao Qini looked at him with round eyes and said hurriedly.
"Oooh!" Yao Changsheng hurriedly retracted his hand, walked over and threw the firewood in his hand into the bonfire.
