Chapter 84: Scorched

Little by little, time passed.

The time set by the "old fairy" is getting closer and closer.

All have mixed feelings.

Excited, excited, tormented, urgent... Even - scared!

I'm afraid that all the work I have done will be wasted!

Don't look at the walls of the entire deep well have been thoroughly built; The hollow wall, which was built around the edge of the well, was about nine feet high and three feet wide, and was beautifully repaired and strong; The canal, which is one zhang high and one zhang wide, has been built with stone masonry for more than ten miles.

However, if there were no spring at the bottom of the well, all this that thousands of people had toiled day and night for more than half a month would be just an ornament.

An unsightly display.

The entire Jinhua Village has changed from the hustle and bustle of thousands of people working in full swing to the silence that can be heard now.

The atmosphere was tense and oppressive.

Everyone held torches and gathered quietly around the hollow wall.

Many people even subconsciously hold their breath, for fear that they will breathe too heavily and cause the old gods to be dissatisfied, so that the spring will not be able to gush out on time.

The most nervous were more than 600 villagers from Yinkeng Village, Pingkou Village, and Baoji Village.

Because when Xie Lizheng first saw them, he made it clear: after the spring was dug up, it was the time to help them settle in Jinhua Village.

Whether they can settle in Jinhua Village depends on tonight.

How could he not be nervous?

Secondly, Mu Ling brought back hundreds of women from Heigangzhai.

When Sheri was arranging them in a makeshift pergola, he made it clear: as long as they could dig a spring, they would be able to settle in Jinhua Village from now on.

Although they have only been in Jinhua Village for a few days, the friendliness of the people in Jinhua Village has made them feel the warmth of the world that Heigangzhai has never felt.

They all want to settle in Jinhua Village.

Therefore, tonight, they subconsciously approached Xie Lizheng, and once the spring was dug up, they immediately hugged Xie Li Zheng home and helped them go through the procedures for settling in Jinhua Village overnight.

……

Mu Daqiang had been sitting on the threshold of the gate, looking through the hazy night, looking at the village that was surprisingly quiet tonight, and smoking a dry cigarette.

Seeing that the time was about to come, at this time in the past, Yao had already entered a deep sleep with his three babies.

However, tonight, after putting the three babies to sleep, she lay on the bed, tossing and turning, but she couldn't sleep.

She even wanted to get out of the room, out of the house, and like all the villagers, huddled outside the high openwork wall with torches and waited for the result.

However, she knows very well that the people in Jinhua Village are chaotic now, even if the three babies are asleep at the moment, she does not dare to leave the three babies easily, and even dare not let the three babies out of her sight easily.

She lay on the bed, anxiously turning over and over.

In the end, she still got up in the morning, walked straight back and forth in the room with her hands upside down. For fear of waking up the three sleeping babies, I didn't dare to make too much noise.

Just very restrained, in the room, go straight back and forth.

The Nangong clan, who was born in the eldest lady, didn't want to crowd outside the high carved wall with the Zhongjin villagers, but she wanted to know the result as soon as possible.

So, she planned to move the ladder and climb to the roof.

She was looking around for a ladder, and suddenly heard movement on the roof, and when she saw it, a person wearing armor appeared on the roof, and she was about to shout "There is an assassin", and the man said: "Mrs. Nangong don't need to panic, I am Leng Ye, uh, Da Bao's subordinate." ”
