Chapter 26: Finding Out
Jiang Yulai and Jiang Erlang went out to call someone over, their little niece/sister took out so much water, they are not cold-blooded people, and they will naturally keep their promise to let the people of Jiangjia Village also come to fill the water.
However, Jiang Yulai still told him to repeat what Mrs. Jiang said before they left.
That is, she must leave some water in her little treasure chest, so that she will not run out of water in the following days.
Jiang Zhiyue had to tell them that there were still a lot of buckets of water in it, which was enough for them to use for a long time.
As soon as they went out, they didn't go far when they saw Jiang Yu towards the four of them.
Jiang Dalang was the first to notice Jiang Yulai and Erlang, and he stepped forward expectantly and asked, "Have you found a place?" ”
Seeing that only his third uncle and second brother and second brother came over, Jiang Dalang already had a faint guess in his heart.
Jiang Erlang said happily: "I found it, we were about to go back and call someone, and we met you." ”
"Great, let's go back and call someone." Jiang Dalang said and dragged Jiang Erlang in the direction he was coming from.
Chen Xiaoxia remembered what Jiang Dalang said about her oily hair just now, and just wanted to wash it quickly.
But she was worried that she wouldn't be able to use it when everyone came, so she wanted to go now.
She opened her mouth and asked, "Brother Jiang, where are Sister Zhiyue, if you go back and find someone, I'll go over to find Sister Zhiyue first." ”
Because Chen Xiaoxia asked Jiang Dalang, but he had been with them just now, how did he know where his sister and second uncle were, so he had to look at Erlang and ask.
Jiang Erlang pointed in one direction: "Keep going forward, and it won't be long before you can see a cave, and they are in the cave." ”
Chen Zhicai didn't go with him, after all, he found the water source, and he had to go back to get the utensils for holding water.
Jiang Yu thought the same way towards them, so they all went back.
When they returned, they found that most of the people who had gone out to look for water had returned.
They all looked depressed, and they didn't find water.
Jiang Dalang was suddenly very glad that his sister was favored by the old fairy and gave him a treasure chest that could change things.
And every time it is what they need, what grandma said must be true, when my sister was born, the magpies came to report the good news, it was a blessing.
And when they saw them returning, they all looked at them.
None of the people who had just returned had found water, and they had already been disappointed in their expectations, afraid of hearing the same answer again.
Only the Jiang family knew that since they had returned, they must have found a place.
However, he still stepped forward and asked, "Is it possible to find the water?" ”
"I found it, but the road over there is a bit steep, and it's not convenient to pull the car, so let's take something and follow us to fill water." Jiang Dalang finished his words in one go.
"Hey, okay, big brother, everyone, you guys go, just watch a few of us here." Old Mrs. Jiang said happily.
In the end, even the smaller Gorou Rokuro went with him.
Families went out to fill the water, leaving only a small number of people to look at things.
And over there in the cave, Jiang Zhiyue thought that she hadn't taken a bath for so long.
It's still not practical to take a shower, but you can wash your hair and face and wipe your arms again.
It just so happened that there was a small pool the size of a basin not far from this oval pit, and Jiang Zhiyue took out three wooden scoops from the space.
Jiang Yuqing, who stayed behind, was no longer surprised to see his niece suddenly conjuring things.
After Jiang Zhiyue simply washed her face and hair, she heard footsteps outside.
But the footsteps were very soft, not like people from the village were coming.
She looked at the entrance of the cave vigilantly, and after a while, she saw Chen Xiaoxia coming in alone.
After Chen Xiaoxia came in, she greeted with a smile: "Second Uncle Jiang, Sister Zhiyue." ”
Jiang Zhiyue and Jiang Yuqing glanced at Chen Xiaoxia and also said hello.
Chen Xiaoxia walked inside and saw that there was so much water, and her eyes lit up.
There was still a lot of food at home, but there was not much water, and her mother always said that she would leave some water for her little nephew to drink, so she drank even less.
I just said so much to Brother Jiang, and my mouth was already dry.
Therefore, as soon as you see water, you have to hold a handful of water and drink it.
Jiang Zhiyue saw it and hurriedly stopped it.
I haven't washed my hands for so long, and I don't know how dirty it is, and they will have to fill it with water in a while.
Although it is said that there is no disease after eating and eating, there is not so much attention to this escape road.
But...... It's really dirty.
She didn't even like herself just now, but at this moment, seeing Chen Xiaoxia's black claws about to stretch out into the water, she couldn't agree.
She handed Chen Xiaoxia a scoop of water and asked her to drink from it.
Chen Xiaoxia smiled gratefully and took it, and drank a full scoop of water.
Chen Xiaoxia praised sincerely: "Sister Zhiyue is so lucky, she found so much water, it seems that there will be no shortage of water for a long time in the future." ”
Jiang Zhiyue saw that she was genuinely praising her, instead of pretending to be green tea like Jiang Zhilan, so she was not so repulsive, and smiled modestly.
Jiang Zhiyue couldn't help but look at her twice, she didn't expect her brother to be such an indifferent person, and the girl looked pretty good.
Soon, Chen Xiaoxia and Jiang Yuqing also briefly freshened up.
Thinking that Chen Xiaoxia was also here, Jiang Zhiyue simply asked Jiang Yuqing to guard the entrance of the cave, and the two girls simply scrubbed in the cave.
Jiang Zhiyue felt finally comfortable.
On the other side, Jiang Yulai walked around with everyone for a while, and saw the cave just now.
The cave was so big that so many people could stand down when they came.
Seeing so much water in it, everyone's eyes burst out with surprise.
When they first arrived, they didn't expect to have so much water, and they wanted to grab as much water as possible.
Now I see so much water, even if I don't grab it, the container brought by each family can be full.
Jiang Zhiyue was afraid that they would make the water dirty by coaxing, so she organized them to line up and fill the water one by one.
They looked at so much water and finally didn't fight, and honestly lined up.
However, everyone had a smile on their faces, and those who liked to take advantage of the situation on weekdays did not open their mouths to find trouble.
There are also many people who thank Jiang Zhiyue and them, whether they are sincere or sour, it is rare not to say anything unpleasant.
The Jiang family was relieved, after all, this water was really thanks to their eucalyptus.
Many people send water down after fetching it, and then come back to fill it with water, for fear that they won't be able to hold it for a while.
After each house was filled with water, there was still some water left in it, so Jiang Zhiyue suggested that they take the water out and put it in the small pool just now to scrub it briefly.
There were also people who wanted to go directly into the big pit to wash, but Jiang Zhiyue sternly refused.
Although they were a little unconvinced, she found the water, and in the end she didn't say anything.
After solving the water problem, the Jiang family did not leave in a hurry, but settled down in the same place.
Jiang Hengrong glanced at the Jiang family with squinted eyes, and sat down as well.
Knowing that there were robbers in front of them, there were a lot of people in their group, but few of them dared to do anything with the robbers.
That's why he won't leave the Jiang family now.
And he hasn't given up the idea of letting the Jiang family return to the team.
The Jiang family, not far away, was discussing the robbers at the moment.
"Girl, we've found the water, now are we going back to the path?" Wang Fengshou asked.
He has already seen it these days, and his aunt's family will ask Zhiyue about big and small things.
And the young girl is really powerful, and she has ideas in her heart.
Jiang Zhiyue said: "Don't be in a hurry to go, everyone is tired after driving for so long, so rest here for a day and then go." ”
Then he whispered, "I'm going to check on the robbers tonight." ”
"No, it's too dangerous!"
As soon as Jiang Zhiyue finished speaking, she was rejected by everyone.
"That's the bandits' den, I don't know how many people there are in it, you still want to go there at night, what if something happens!"
The others agreed, and they had a little blood on their hands.
But it was either an unorganized refugee, and even those robbers encountered today were only a few.
Those robbers don't know how many evils they have done here, and there are a lot of lives on their hands, and everyone feels that it is good to hide if they can.
"I'll be careful, I'll take a look." Jiang Zhiyue said categorically.
Everyone saw that she had already made up their minds, knowing that she would definitely go, and if they didn't agree, they might avoid them and go secretly, so they didn't persuade her again, just told her to be careful in everything.
Night is falling.
It's rare for people to feel as comfortable as they are today.
I bought food, found water, and rested for most of the day.
It's just that when I think of the money spent to buy food, I can't help but feel distressed.
Normally, the people will keep vigil, and the others will go to rest.
Probably because of the mountains, the summer heat has also weakened, and everyone rarely has a good night's sleep.
They didn't see it, and after everyone rested, a figure from the Jiang family's side quietly left and walked in the direction of the mountain.
That person was Jiang Zhiyue, and she planned to take advantage of the situation now.
Under the cover of the night, Jiang Zhiyue came to the place she passed by in the morning after a while.
The bodies of those people on the ground were gone, and traces of dragging could be faintly seen on the ground.
Jiang Zhiyue's expression was condensed, and she walked all the way to the faint drag marks on the ground.
Suddenly, Jiang Zhiyue heard a voice talking, which made her stop abruptly and hide carefully.
A voice came: "The brothers who have been arrested today are really lucky, I knew that I would go out with them"
Another apparently disagreed, retorting: "Lucky? Didn't the brothers who went out today die eight? I think it's better to guard the gate here, and it's safe and someone will bring food back to eat. ”
Jiang Zhiyue listened to their conversation and obtained some information from it, the eight people that the person said should be the robbers they encountered.
"Hey, I'm not talking about the eight of them, that group of rubbish didn't even catch a few people, and now it's going to be food for the brothers.
I'm talking about the brothers who blocked people on another path, and they arrested a lot of people and brought back a lot of food today.
