Chapter 61: Qiao Huaping pinched his fingers
The next day, before dawn, the people of the two villages set out on the road to escape the famine.
The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and most of the feet were blistered, worn out, and finally became thick cocoons.
The villagers were more or less overwhelmed.
At this time, the gap between the two villages can be clearly seen.
Those who are old and frail in Liujin Village, at least look at the past, and they are better than the people in Bishuitun.
It's just that since it has been decided that the two villages will go on the road together, the people in Liujin Village will always have to wait for the people of Bishuitun.
By noon, the sun was too big, and they each found a shady place to rest, and the people of Bishuitun were so tired that they didn't want to move, but many young and middle-aged people in Liujin Village went to the forest halfway up the mountainside together.
They all had bows in their hands, as if they wanted to try their luck.
"A bunch of fools." The people of Bishuitun scoffed at this. During a good rest, these young people ran around with their physical strength, and the people of Liujin Village did not persuade them, they were simply sick in the brain.
The weather was so hot that everyone was sweating and wiping sweat.
The Mei family's resting place at noon today is behind a huge rock.
The rocks block the sunlight, and the stone walls are even slightly damp in the shade near the ground.
Qiao Huaping glanced at it and knew that at least the groundwater resources in this place should be quite abundant.
If nothing else, there should be a water source nearby.
Qiao Huaping fanned Mei Qingying, thinking in his heart that it was best to ask the village chief to send someone to take a look nearby.
Mei Qingyao also has a fan there, he has a lot of strength, fanning the wind, and the two younger brothers next to him can enjoy it.
It's just that the temperature is too hot, and the wind coming out of this fan is hot and dry.
Qiao Huaping thought about it, took out the water bladder, and secretly added the stalactite spiritual water that had just dripped last night to the water bladder while a few children were not paying attention.
Qiao Huaping discovered that there are two ways for stalactites to drip spiritual water from her space.
One is that over time, a drop of water will condense very slowly from the stalactite, and then drip very slowly into the stone bowl.
There is also a kind of throwing expensive things into the space.
It seems that for the first time she lost a whole plant of blood and sorrow, this space immediately "ecstatic" dripped a drop of spiritual water.
Qiao Huaping also tried it when he was bored, took out the blood and threw it in, thinking about repeating the score.
Outcome...... Naturally, no.
However, for now, Qiao Huaping is already very satisfied.
Her space is now full of miscellaneous things, and she even took advantage of the unpreparedness to pick up some tattered things that can hold water, and stored a lot of water in the space.
Water, food, herbs, you name it.
Qiao Huaping estimated that even if they threw their family into a desert where there was no food at the moment, with the things stored in her space, it would not be a problem to eat it for a month or two.
I have food in my hand, and I don't panic!
"Here, drink some water." Qiao Huaping handed over the water bladder in his hand and let several children drink a few sips of water mixed with spiritual water.
Seeing that several children had drunk water, Qiao Huaping nodded with satisfaction, and gave Mei Qingyu the fan in his hand, asking him to help the youngest Mei Qingying play the fan, and set off to go to the village chief's resting place.
Seeing Qiao Huaping coming to look for him, the village chief was a little stunned. But at the moment, Qiao Huaping has a very good reputation in him, and when he heard Qiao Huaping say that there might be a water source nearby, he clapped the board very happily.
"I'll find a few offspring to see." The village chief is very cheerful.
The village chief also had a heart, and when he sent people out to explore the road, he didn't say that Qiao Huaping said that there was a water source nearby, but just asked those descendants to look nearby to see if there was any water - he was worried that if he didn't find a water source later, it would make Qiao Huaping unable to come to the stage.
However, the village chief was obviously overly worried, and soon, several descendants rushed back excitedly.
One of them, who was so anxious and excited that he even ran away with one shoe, and quickly ran back with one foot.
"There is, there is a stream! The water flow is quite large! ”
In this scorching sun, there is a stream, take a bath, replenish the water, it is something that can save people's lives!
The village chief was shocked, and immediately said: "Qiao's said that there may be a water source nearby, and he is really right!" ”
When these words were heard in the ears of the excited afterlife, they changed.
The village chief's words were passed on by a few later generations, and it had already become Qiao Huaping's fingers and calculated that there was a water source nearby!
When the people in the village looked at Qiao Huaping again, their eyes even had a bit of admiration and awe!
Qiao Huaping: "? ”
Although this water source was said to have been found by the people of Liujin Village, they were not stingy and told the people of Bishui Tunzi about it.
Many people were in a hurry, leaving only one to look after the luggage, and ran in the direction of the creek.
It's too hot, not to mention drinking water, and being able to stick a fierce son into a creek is not better than anything else?
……
Zhou Xu asked Zhou Xiaoqing to stay and watch the luggage for the whole family.
Song Yuelan said: "Xiaoqing, you also go to the creek to cool off, I'll just look at the luggage." ”
Zhou Xu glared at Song Yuelan: "You are blatantly not taking my words as a mother-in-law in your eyes, aren't you?" Let your girl do some work, and she still wronged you?! ”
Song Yuelan lowered her eyes and looked very supple, but the words that came out of her mouth were a little cold and sarcastic: "Mother, what are you talking about, Xiaoqing is not a person who doesn't work and eats rice." Yesterday, she hunted a quail, and then said that she entered the forest willfully, but her Aunt Qiao was kind enough to give her a large piece of leopard meat, isn't it also shared by the whole family? Mother, didn't you eat quite well last night? ”
Zhou Xu was blocked by Song Yuelan and had nothing to say, the piece of leopard meat last night was the one she ate the most.
In the end, she could only glare at Song Yuelan stupidly, and said angrily: "Forget it, let me talk so well about my luggage for a while, I can't afford to mess with me!" ”
She glanced at Zhou Xiaoqing again, and said angrily: "Hurry up, don't ink, let's go." ”
But she never thought that Zhou Xiaoqing would also bow her head like her mother, seemingly soft, but the words she said could make people dizzy: "Grandma, go ahead." I'll just go with my mother in a while. ”
Zhou Xu sneered: "You two have a really good relationship!" ”
After speaking, she went to pull Zhou Heishi, who was a little hesitant: "What are you doing in a daze, your daughter-in-law dislikes us and doesn't want to be with us - let's go quickly, there will definitely be no place to go late." ”
Zhou Heishi hesitated and was pulled away by his mother.
Song Yuelan looked at her daughter who was sweating hot and sweaty, and her back clothes were sweaty, and she was about to say something, but she saw Zhuang Yundai holding her youngest daughter Mei Qingying's hand and coming over, and greeted them warmly: "Are you both here?" I heard that there is a hidden place on the other side of the creek, and we women can also take off our clothes and wash them, do you want to go and see? ”
