Zhang Shaofei walked through the dense forest along the way, crossed the valley, trekked through mountains and rivers, slept in the open air, I don't know how many hours he walked, on this day, he came to the Dengzhan Ridge at the junction with other provinces, and settled in a village at the foot of Longfeng Town.

Zhang Shaofei was sincere and friendly, and the local people not only did not resist this outsider, but got along well with him.

Zhang Shaofei stayed in Dengzhanling for a night, and then took a small raft tied with bamboo and went up the river stream.

In the evening of that day, Zhang Shaofei came to a village called Gangjiao, and when he saw that it was dusk, the birds had returned to their nests, so he gave up the raft, landed on the south side of the river, and came to a house.

The owner of the house, Uncle Ou, saw that a stranger was coming, asked the reason, and learned that Zhang Shaofei wanted to stay here, so he warmly welcomed him into the house and said: "Seeing that you are sweating profusely and your lips are chapped, you must be very thirsty, come, drink a bowl of water." After that, he picked up a big bowl and scooped a bowl of water into the water tank and handed it to Zhang Shaofei.

Zhang Shaofei took the big bowl, raised his head and drank the bowl of water, and then asked curiously, "Where is this water?" It's so sweet! ”

Ou Bo pointed to the rushing river outside and said, "This is the stream in Nanling." ”

"Ah, it's like holy water." Drinking the water that clears his heart and moistens his lungs, Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but praise.

Uncle Ou said with a sad face: "I am in charge of the water in the village, and every morning before dawn, I have to climb to the back mountain to draw water to irrigate the farmland. In the event of a severe drought, the fields south of the riverbank will crack and the rice harvest will fail. Here, it has not rained for more than a month, and the ground in the fields has begun to dry up, and it seems that the people in this vicinity will be starving this year. ”

Zhang Shaofei looked at Uncle Ou and asked, "Uncle Ou, can you find a water source near Tianyuan?" ”

Uncle Ou sighed: "Of course it would be best if you could find a water source in Tiantong, but I think it's just a vain idea." ”

After Zhang Shaofei heard this, he frowned and fell into deep thought.

Zhang Shaofei stayed in the small hall of Uncle Ou's house that night, and heard the long sighs of the farmers who couldn't sleep well all night.

The next day, Zhang Shaofei followed Ou Bo to Tiandong, and the seedlings that greeted him began to burn yellow.

Zhang Shaofei suggested climbing to the back mountain to draw water, but saw that the water in the pond in the back mountain was almost bottoming out.

In the past few days, Zhang Shaofei has eaten, lived and worked with his uncle in the same district.

That night, the weather was very hot, there was not a hint of wind, and it had not rained in the summer for a long time. Ou Bo sat in front of the house, looking up at the starry sky in a daze, sighing from time to time.

"Uncle Ou, don't worry anymore, I think you will find a water source in the cave." Zhang Shaofei comforted.

Uncle Ou smiled bitterly: "Don't comfort me anymore." ”

Zhang Shaofei said: "Uncle Ou, I'm not comforting you. Recently, I have made some new discoveries. ”

Uncle Ou hurriedly asked, "What new discoveries have you made?" ”

Zhang Shaofei said seriously: "I have paid attention to these days, and every evening, there are light spots flashing in the southwest and northeast of the field. I once went to the field to pay close attention to the grass, and the grass in that place was very green, and I took the soil under the grass and looked at it carefully, and I found it very wet. When I was in my hometown, I used to dig wells with the older generation and listened to them tell me about the signs of finding water. It seems that if you dig down in that place, there will be springs of water. ”

After hearing this, Ou Bo was overjoyed: "If it is really like what you said, I can avoid the pain of climbing the back mountain to draw water." Today happens to be the first day of the new year, so I'll go outside with you to see if it's really what you said. ”

"Okay." Zhang Shaofei promised.

Zhang Shaofei immediately took Ou Bo to the southwest of Tianzhong, and sure enough, he saw a white light flickering.

"If you dig in this place, you'll actually see a water source?" Ou Bo looked at Zhang Shaofei suspiciously.

"In my opinion, sure." Zhang Shaofei said with confidence.

Uncle Ou was suspicious: "Then, I will identify this position tonight, and I will try it in this place tomorrow." ”

Early the next morning, Ou Bo didn't care about breakfast, so he couldn't wait to come to the fixed location southwest of Tianyuan with Zhang Shaofei with a shovel.

The two of them picked up their shovels and dug down, and after only two spades, they saw that the soil under the grass was noticeably much wetter.

Ou Bo dug hard, and the further he dug down, the wetter the soil became. When it was dug to a depth of one zhang, a clear spring gushed out.

Ou Bo was dumbfounded at first, and then slapped his brain with his hand, and shouted ecstatically: "This time I have dug up a treasure!" Dig up the treasure! Then he threw the shovel into the field, pulled his legs and ran, and went back to the village to tell him.

The villagers of the village rushed to the southwest side of the field with hoes and shovels. Some are digging wells in the northeast, while others are digging canals to divert water to irrigate the fields.

When the villagers saw that the parched fields were filled with water, they gave him a thumbs up and praised him for doing a great deed for the local people.

Zhang Shaofei said goodbye to the villagers amid the praise of the villagers and went up the river along the South River.

……

On this day, Zhang Shao flew to the Sanjiang Ferry under the high mountain range, and after the transition, he headed to the northwest, and when he stepped on a small hill, he was at a loss, not knowing where to go......

Suddenly, Zhang Shaofei saw a halo swirling not far away.

"Could it be that the aura is showing me the way?" Zhang Shaofei was hot, and involuntarily walked towards the flickering place of the halo.

Turning a mountain pass, I saw a mountain road extending westward, sinking into the dense woods.

Zhang Shaofei walked west along the ancient road in the mountains, and he didn't know how long he walked, and a big mountain was in front of him.

Zhang Shaofei looked up, but saw that this big mountain was steep, strange rocks and mountains, the forest was particularly lush, and the ancient trees were towering to the sky, so he climbed up the mountain.

When I climbed to the top of the mountain, the sky was already dark, and a few yellow-brown foxes were running through the grass and shrubs, and from time to time they let out bursts of wails, which made this empty and desolate mountain top look particularly desolate and lonely, which made people worry.

The clouds were whipped like prisoners, a blue and white lightning burst forth, thunder rolled through the air like a thousand chariots, and a downpour of rain poured down from the sky.

There is no village in front of here, and there is no store in the back, so Zhang Shaofei had to run to a camphor tree to take shelter from the rain, but how could the sparse canopy of the camphor tree prevent this downpour.

When Zhang Shaofei was in distress, another lightning bolt fell from the sky, tearing open the dark canopy and illuminating the earth.

At that moment, Zhang Shaofei felt that his eyes lit up, and there was a stone room ten zhang away from him.

Zhang Shaofei hurriedly rushed over with his luggage on his back.

The boulder above the stone chamber is supported by two separate boulders below, forming a large eaves shape more than one zhang wide, like the beak of a flying eagle.

Zhang Shaofei hid inside and immediately escaped the suffering of the rain.
