When Meng Hao was extremely shocked, the old man trembled and took out a wooden barrel from the hut and pointed to the west with his hand.

"There is an old well from here to the west, you go and see if there is any water, if there is, Lao Jia will help me bring a bucket back!"

The old man's voice is very strange, and the wording is completely different from modern times.

That should be the difference between ancient and modern.

But the strange thing was that Meng Hao couldn't use the Divine Arithmetic Technique at all, nor could he perform the Five Elements Mystery Technique, but he was not only able to understand these ancient languages, but he could also speak them naturally.

But he couldn't ask the old man more about it, because whether it was the concept of "earth" or "era", no one could understand it in this ancient era when the hair drank blood and the clothes did not cover the body.

Meng Hao could only thank the old man, and then jumped on the horse with the bucket.

After running west for five or six minutes, I saw a mountain cliff in the distance.

Below the cliff, there is indeed an old well.

The well was just a rudimentary form of a well, and it was not completely excavated by hand, but a crack in the rock that originally existed under the cliff.

People probably found that there was water under this crack, so they spent time to dig this crack a little bigger, and it became an old well in this period.

There were seven or eight people around the well who had come here to fetch water.

All of them had only a burlap around their waists, and they were all yellow and thin, and they were obviously malnourished.

Among them were two old women, also with bare and shriveled tops, and they didn't feel ashamed to gather in the men's pile.

The men were probably used to it, and no one gave the two women a second look.

Instead, they looked at Meng Hao one by one, their eyes were full of surprise and weirdness, as if they were looking at a monster.

Meng Hao immediately understood that it was the clothes on his body that made these people feel strange.

But now he can't perform the Five Elements Mystery Method, and he can't change into an ancient costume, so he can only jump off the horse in the eyes of everyone and walk towards the old well surrounded by the crowd.

And as Meng Hao approached step by step, the group of people retreated one after another.

There was a slightly stronger man who asked in a trembling voice, "You, you...... Is it a human or a youkai? ”

"I'm human, but I'm from far, far away, so I'm dressed differently than yours!"

Meng Hao had to explain like this, trying to be as gentle and calm as possible.

That person may have heard that Meng Hao could speak the same language as them, so he was slightly relieved.

However, the look of vigilance in his eyes did not lessen much, and when he saw Meng Hao approaching, he still stepped back with the others.

"That looks like a bucket from Gong Yi's house!"

A woman suddenly pointed to the bucket in Meng Hao's hand and exclaimed.

Everyone else also recognized it, and suddenly everyone looked at Meng Hao with increasingly vigilant eyes.

Meng Hao hurriedly explained: "This was given to me by an old man at the entrance of the village below, I told him to drink water under the pretext that he asked me to take a bucket to the well to draw water, and I also had to help him carry a bucket of water back!" ”

The people of this period were simple in temperament, and Meng Hao's explanation did not arouse the suspicion of this group of people at all, but the vigilance on everyone's faces was reduced a lot.

The slightly stronger man even said, "Then you can fetch water first!" You didn't bring a rope, take mine and use it! ”

He threw a roll of old rope he was holding in his hand to Meng Hao.

Meng Hao looked carefully and found that the rope was also made of coarse linen, which was the same material as the linen cloth around the waists of these people.

Pull it by hand, it's quite sturdy.

So Meng Hao thanked him and tied the rope to the barrel handle first.

The man probably saw that Meng Hao was born and beautiful, so he took the initiative to step forward and said: "The water in the well is already very deep, and it takes a lot of strength to lift it, if you can't lift it, I can help you!" ”

Meng Hao once again sighed that the people of this era are really simple and kind, obviously they are all yellow-skinned and thin, but they are so enthusiastic about him as a stranger of unknown origin.

However, of course, Meng Hao couldn't ask this man to help him fetch water, but thanked him, and then carried the bucket to the well.

Because the well was driven into the ground along a rock crevice, the wellhead was not round, but flattened.

The inner walls of the well were not all reinforced with bricks and stones, as in modern wells, but half of them were natural rocks, and the other half were dirt, and there were traces of excavation on the soil.

In the past, Meng Hao didn't know how deep the water surface in this well was, but at this time, the well water was indeed very deep, at least twelve or thirteen meters below.

But even so, Meng Hao still thought of a common saying: there is no endless road to heaven.

For example, in the last ten suns today, almost everywhere there is a water source, it will evaporate quickly, but in the depths of this well, there is enough water to preserve, so that the people of this land will not lose their last hope of survival. As a modern person in the twenty-first century, of course, Meng Hao could not have used a bucket to draw water, but with his ability to be at the peak of the Great Grandmaster, he could easily fill a bucket of water and then easily bring it up.

The villagers next to him saw that he was so delicate, but they effortlessly brought up a bucket full of water, and inevitably looked at him one by one, full of admiration and envy.

Meng Hao knew that in this era, the most admired thing must be force, and he is a hero, and it is not surprising that these people will have this kind of look at him.

Seeing that these villagers were yellow and thin, Meng Hao was really unbearable, so he simply filled half of his stomach with water in the bucket, and then let the black horse drink the remaining water in the bucket, he took the initiative to step forward and help the villagers fetch water.

The villagers probably saw that he had been able to fetch water easily, so they were not too polite to him, but thanked him twice, and handed him the buckets one by one.

I didn't want to just finish fetching water for two women, when I suddenly heard a shouting sound.

The villagers looked back, and suddenly their faces were panicked, and they all said: "The people from Dongpo Village are here again!" ”

Meng Hao looked back, but saw a group of men, roaring towards this side.

This group of people are all young and strong men, and they are obviously much stronger and stronger than the group of villagers around him, and it seems that these people live a better life than the group of villagers around him.

In particular, the man in the lead was not only wrapped in burlap around his waist, but also wore a wide linen shoulder on his upper body, revealing two strong arms.

"Who told you to fetch water here? This well has already belonged to our Dongpo Village, and you people from Xipo Village are stealing the water from our Dongpo Village when you draw water here! ”

Before he could get closer, the man in the lead was already shouting.

"This well was originally dug by our Xipo Village, and we won't talk about it when you come to Dongpo Village to fetch water, why do you want to completely occupy it and not let us draw water from Xipo Village!"

The slightly sturdy man in Xipo Village had to argue.

It's just that he knows that he is not the opponent of the people of Dongpo Village, and this is obviously not much momentum.

"Will the wells dug by your Xipo Village belong to your Xipo Village forever? Who let you Xipo Village not even have a single warrior? Now that the ten suns are in the sky, the wells everywhere have dried up, but this one is the only one that does not dry up, so it will naturally be supplied to the villages with warriors first! The people of your Xipo Village are all useless waste, and it doesn't matter if you die! ”
