In mid-air, Fang Xiao and Yun Hua sat side by side on the elf, flying quickly.

"See? It's a ghost town! ”

Fang Xiao pointed to a white-looking masonry castle in the distance, the body of the castle was partially buried by yellow sand, but it could still be vaguely seen that it was glorious thousands of years ago.

Because it looks extremely quaint and covers a lot of space.

On the outside of the castle, there are still buildings like city walls, but most of them have collapsed, and there are still a handful of green grass on it, which is particularly conspicuous.

"Is this a ghost town?"

Yunhua's eyes froze.

According to Fang Xiao's introduction, Yunhua knew that the ghost city was actually an ancient city ruins, some scholars believe that this may be the royal court of a nomadic people in ancient times, and some people believe that this is a transit station built due to the Silk Road, and there are different theories.

But the true origin of the ghost town is no longer exquisite, and no one can say clearly.

The ghost town is about 30 kilometers away from the research site, and it is nicknamed "ghost town" by the research team because no one comes here on weekdays.

Commanding the clay puppet giant to fall, Yun Hua and Fang Xiao finally landed in the ghost town.

Yunhua's eyes were full of desolation and decay.

"Although the ghost town is deserted, there is a dry well in it that can still collect water. Speaking of which, I discovered this place in the first place! ”

Fang Xiao scratched his head.

At the beginning, he nested in the station for a few days, but he couldn't hold it back, so he rode out on a clay puppet giant to let off steam, and finally discovered the ghost town.

The scale of the ghost town is not small, and there must have been a lot of people living before it declined, so there are many boreholes in the city.

It's a pity that after thousands of years of sandstorms, most of the wells are blocked by yellow sand and cannot collect water, and only one well can still collect water, but it is also in the semi-paralyzed stage.

As a result, this dry well has become an important source of water for the research team.

"Doh?"

Just as Yunhua was talking to Fang Xiao, the bronze bell suddenly frowned, and his spiritual power suddenly swept out.

"Huh~~"

In the sand dunes not far from the dry well, a small snake with a burden on its back was imprisoned by the spiritual power of the bronze bell, and then flew out of the yellow sand.

The small snake is about two meters long, with a thin body, drooping eyelids, eye patterns like weeping tears, and a black gizzard on the side of its head and neck.

"Huh? Sandbag snake? ”

Yunhua recognized the elf in front of him.

Thinking about it, this sandbag snake should have been lurking in the sand dunes just now, but unfortunately no matter how well it hid, it couldn't escape the telekinesis of the bronze bell.

"Huh~~"

When the sandbag snake was attacked, a large amount of sand immediately sprayed out of the big nostrils, but unfortunately to no avail.

"Bronze bell, forget it. This guy shouldn't have any ill intentions, just throw it out. ”

Under Yunhua's order, the sandbag snake immediately turned into a streamer and was thrown out.

Under Fang Xiao's leadership, Yunhua finally came to the only dry well that could still collect water, in the courtyard of the ancient castle.

"This is the only well that can still collect water, but it has been abandoned for too long and has been buried by yellow sand, so the water collection speed is very slow."

Fang Xiao pointed to the dry well and said, "The point is that once the water in this reaches the depth of the calf, the water will no longer gather." And the deeper the water, the slower it gathers. So we have to get water every five minutes or so. In this way, you can store almost enough water for a ton from morning until dark. ”

"What? Pick it up from morning to dark? ”

Yunhua Bengbu lived.

This water is also time-consuming, right?

He thought that it should not be easy to get water, but he didn't expect it to be this kind of "not simple", it was completely dependent on grinding!

"So, we also hate coming to fetch water, and although the process is easy, it is so time-consuming that we basically can't leave for a moment. Otherwise, the water accumulation rate will be reduced, and it is easy to not get enough water. ”

Fang Xiao spread his hands, looking helpless.

From now on, the courage to take water will be handed over to Yunhua, and Yunhua has become a "full-time water collector".

But as far as Fang Xiao is concerned, he is liberated, and Yunhua will take over the pot.

Under Fang Xiao's guidance, Yunhua threw the bucket into the dry well, and then lowered it for about thirty meters, and finally heard the sound of "ding dong" water.

Gollum and Gollum waited for the bucket to be filled with water until it was silent, Yunhua pulled the bucket up, and finally the bucket was filled with seventy percent full, about three or four liters of water, and Yunhua poured it into the big bucket.

Three times in a row, the water in the dry well was finally taken by Yunhua.

Leaning his ear against the wall of the well, Yunhua could vaguely hear the sound of water seeping.

"Okay, the water collection method and precautions have been handed over to you. I'm going to bother you next. ”

Fang Xiao warned again: "There are generally no powerful elves in this ghost town, even if there is a top sky, it is also professional-level. Anyway, you have a dragon gopher and a bronze bell, you can fight if you can beat it, and run if you can't beat it, and the most important thing is to ensure your own safety. ”

The strength of the dragon gopher was already at the professional level by default in Fang Xiao's eyes.

Coupled with the flying ability and spiritual power of the bronze bell, there is a high probability that Yunhua is not in any danger, which is why Fang Xiao dared to leave Yunhua here alone.

"After getting water, don't run around. I'll pick you up here before dark. ”

Patting Yunhua on the shoulder, Fang Xiao rode the clay puppet giant and left, leaving Yunhua alone to fetch water.

"What's this special meow called?"

Yunhua tossed the bucket aside and sighed distraughtly.

But upset is upset, training is the most important thing.

In order to ensure the progress of training, Yunhua released the remaining two large and two small, urging them not to relax their training.

"Yo Chat~~"(?w?)

Feeling the rich rock attribute energy in the air, as well as the ground attribute energy under his feet, Yukira only felt that he had returned to the harbor, and everything was so beautiful.

It really wanted to have fun, but when it glanced at the "Swamp Leaping Fish" that had completed its evolution, the little guy wilted in an instant and obediently ran to train.

The swamp leaping fish has been one step ahead for the time being, and if it doesn't catch up for the time being, its position is not guaranteed!

"Mark~"

The Swamp Leaping Fish felt its surroundings with its fins and gills, and frowned silently.

Because the water molecules in the air are simply outrageously low.

If you use a water attribute skill here, you won't even have half the power in your heyday, right?

With a gleam of wisdom flashing in his eyes, the Swamp Leaping Fish found a corner and obediently practiced skills such as rounding, mirror reflection, and playing with mud.

It's the cradle lily, although it has evolved, but its personality has not changed much, so it is usually very sticky to Yunhua, and he always has to be coquettish with Yunhua for a while.

Cradle Lily's huge head kept rubbing in Yun Hua's arms, making Yun Hua itch unbearably: "Okay, okay, I still have to get water, you have to help me!" ”

Yunhua looked at his watch.

Good guys, five minutes is almost up.

As a last resort, Yunhua hurriedly brought the cradle lily to the well, pointed to the deep well and said, "Sayuri, lead the water!" ”

"What's the deal~"

Yunhua gave an order, and the Sayuri water diversion characteristics were immediately activated.

In an instant, the water that had just gathered at the bottom of the well moved instantly, as if it had been called by a mystery, and actually began to fly out of the deep well out of the gravity of the planet.

Under Sayuri's control, the water flowed into the bucket very well, and almost no drop was wasted.

“nice！ It worked. ”

Yunhua was overjoyed when he saw this.

The Taklamakan Desert is very dry, and it is very difficult to divert water from the sand dunes, so the elves in the team who obviously have the characteristics of "water storage" cannot store water at all, so they can only come to the ghost town dozens of kilometers away to fetch water.

However, there is water in the deep well, so Sayuri's characteristics can still be activated, but it is a little more difficult to control the water flow by pouring all the water into the bucket.

Fortunately, after experiencing the nourishment and evolution of the "Fountain of Life", Sayuri's ability to control water has also made a qualitative leap, so it is not a big problem.

"It's a pity! Although it is a little easier to draw water from the diversion, if there is no water in the well, you still have to wait. ”

Forgetting the bottomless well, Yunhua shook his head and sighed: "If only Sayuri's water diversion characteristics could affect the groundwater." ”

If there is water in the well, it means that there must be runoff underground.

The only trouble is that the underground runoff is usually located at a very deep level.

Through the well, Sayuri can barely control the flow of water, because only the air is blocking it.

But if you want to affect underground runoff, it's more troublesome, because the sand dunes and soil are much more damaging than the air.

"How?"

Hearing this, Sayuri was not happy to listen, and her face was puffed up.

I didn't try, how do you know I can't?

"What's the deal~"

Sayuri became angry, and the grass attribute energy in her body suddenly swept out, turning into tiny rhizomes and deep into the sand dunes.

But soon, Sayuri is in trouble.

Because the dunes are inferior to the soil, they have neither water nor nutrients in them, which makes it difficult for their rhizome fields to extend out, or expand downwards.

So just rooted at a depth of two or three meters, Sayuri can't be rooted.

"Sayuri, don't try. The moisture in the air in this place is very thin, and the underground water is so deep that even the pro-level elves can't handle it, so don't waste your efforts. ”

Yunhua shook his head.

"What's the deal~"

It was Sayuri, who gasped for breath but didn't give up.

Because it has sensed the presence of groundwater, although it is far away, its characteristic attraction ability is also weakened to the extreme.

But the problem is that the attraction hasn't gone away, and the groundwater is slowly seeping upwards, albeit at an alarmingly slow pace.

Looking at the cradle lily who was competing with him, Yunhua didn't bother to persuade him.

This guy is not an obedient master.

Soon, five minutes came again, and Yunhua wanted to beckon Sayuri to repeat his old tricks, but the little guy ignored him at all.

As a last resort, Yunhua could only fetch water with a bucket by himself.

But strangely, this time the bottom of the well was empty.
