Chapter One Hundred and Nine
As soon as the village chief's words came out, Qin Zhenbei and Su Jin both frowned.
Although Su Jin respected Qin Fu'an very much, he couldn't help but say at this time: "Village Chief, do you know what price Qin has to pay in order to get a little water, Qin Zhenbei?" ”
"How many flood beasts there are in the deep mountains and old forests, you must know very well!"
"This water is in exchange for his life, you asked Qin Zhenbei to get more water for the whole village, do you really think he is a god, can you do anything?"
Su Jin was angry for a while, and what he said was naturally not very good.
But she's telling the truth!
It is very difficult to get water from the mountains, let alone get a lot of water for the villagers!
The village chief knew that he had said the wrong thing, not only did he not get angry with Su Jin's attitude, but apologized: "I'm sorry!" ”
"I know I'm asking for a bit too much, but if I hadn't been forced to do anything, I wouldn't have the cheekiness to come to you."
"It's really that the villagers are forced to have no choice, if there is no water to drink, they will all die of thirst."
Su Jin sighed.
It's so hard to live in this world!
But they're not saints either!
The water that Qin Zhenbei took back from the mountains was only enough for his family of five, and just like that, they hadn't bathed for a long time.
It is impossible to get them to distribute water to the villagers!
It is also impossible to let Qin Zhenbei be responsible for the water of the whole village!
In case he has some accident in the mountains, and the child has no father, who will they cry to?
At this time, Qin Zhenbei spoke: "Village chief, it's a little unrealistic for me to get more water for the villagers by myself. ”
The village chief's face showed a look of loss.
Could it really be that the sky is going to die in their Qingshan Village?
"However, I can take the villagers into the mountains to get water." Qin Zhenbei said.
As soon as he heard this, the village chief who was frowning immediately showed a surprised expression, "Are you willing to take someone to fetch water?" ”
Qin Zhenbei nodded, "I know the location of the water source, it shouldn't be a problem to take a few people there." ”
"Okay, okay, then I'll go and inform the villagers now, and let them follow you into the mountain to get water."
As he spoke, the village chief was about to go to the gate of the courtyard.
Qin Zhenbei stopped him, "Village chief, the several places you have to pass through to get water are very dangerous. ”
"You may also encounter tigers and snakes, and you'd better explain these things to them."
The village chief was stunned for a moment, and then nodded again and again: "I know." ”
After the village chief left, Su Jin looked at Qin Zhenbei and said, "Do you really want to take the villagers into the mountains to get water?" ”
"Hmm." The man nodded, "You can't watch everyone die of thirst, you can pull a handful." ”
Su Jin saw that he had made up his mind, so he stopped persuading.
The village chief quickly gathered a group of villagers, and the big guy came to the gate of Su Jin's house.
Qin Zhenbei came out to look at so many people, and said directly: "I can't bring so many people." ”
There are twenty or thirty people, to say the least.
Such a large group of people entering the mountain, making a lot of movement, not only is it easy to be targeted by the beasts in the mountain, but the key is that at a critical moment, he can't save so many people.
When the village chief heard Qin Zhenbei say this, he asked, "How many people do you plan to bring?" ”
"Five or six!" Qin Zhenbei replied.
"What?" At this moment, the villagers who followed the village chief exploded.
"Only five or six people go, what about the others?"
"Qin Zhenbei, bring a few more people, and you can pick up more water when the time comes."
"Yes! There are so many people in the whole village, and the water for five or six people to carry down the mountain is completely insufficient! ”
Listening to everyone's words, Su Jin, who was standing beside Qin Zhenbei, was a little annoyed and said, "Who doesn't know that the water of five or six people is not enough for the whole village to drink!" The key is that you have to have a life to bring water back from the mountains! ”
"It's just a group of you going to the ordinary hills, now it's time to go into the deep mountains and old forests to get water!"
"Why do you think Qin Zhenbei can only bring five or six people at a time?"
"He has to ensure your safety, there are many people who go, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't protect your safety."
Su Jin's voice was sonorous and powerful, and the big guy was silent in an instant.
They patronized to fetch water, but they forgot about it!
Going up the mountain to fetch water is to survive, if you lose your life because of fetching water, then you can take a fart water!
At this time, Qin Zhenbei said to everyone: "You must do what I ask, and I am willing to take you into the mountains to get water." ”
The village chief asked, "What requirements?" ”
"First, you can only go to six people in one trip; Second, the people who follow me into the mountains must obey my command throughout the whole process and cannot act without permission. ”
After Qin Zhenbei finished speaking, he added, "If you can't do it, you don't have to go into the mountain with me, if you act without permission after entering the mountain, it doesn't matter to me whether you are dead or alive." ”
Because of what Su Jin said earlier, at this moment, Qin Zhenbei's request was agreed to by the villagers.
So, among twenty or thirty people, the village chief picked the strongest five men, carried wooden barrels behind them, and followed Qin Zhen north into the mountains.
"Do you think they can get water?" The people who didn't follow looked at their backs and said worriedly.
"With Qin Zhenbei leading the way, you should be able to get water, right?" Some people said that, but their faces were full of worry.
I didn't know how long it would take to get the water back, so the village chief simply waited at the foot of the mountain.
In addition to the village chief, Su Jin and some others also stayed.
Qin Zhenbei had already gone into the mountains to fetch water many times, but none of them had made Su Jin so nervous.
waited from morning to noon, and still didn't see Qin Zhenbei and them come back.
