Chapter 129: No Water in the City
Chapter 129: No Water in the City
The exhilarating moving activity ended quickly. After all, there is strength in numbers, and everyone was very excited.
To be honest, it was a bit hard. After receiving the news, I rode at full speed and traveled a long distance just to reach the master earlier.
After traveling all the way to a dry and hot place, there was no place to rest, so they immediately got into the job, killing people, setting fires, and moving warehouses, all in one go.
But, don't say it.
Thinking back, I’m so excited. What happened?
Is this what it feels like to rob the rich and give to the poor?
No wonder everyone has a dream of becoming a knight.
……
After fighting for most of the night, the results were quite impressive.
Under the cover of night, in the back garden, the bright eyes could not be suppressed at all.
There were already several small hills piled up on the open space in the yard.
There are food, cloth, gold, silver and jewelry...
The two groups of people who had thought that there would be casualties during their visit this time, now all thought that they had never done such an enjoyable job before.
At most they suffered some injuries, but not a single one was lost.
All the companions who came with me are now around me, not one is missing.
stimulate.
……
the other side.
Xie Xiao brought his men to the gate of the County Magistrate's Mansion. They needed to find the mansion's ox carts and horse carriages to transport all the harvest out to facilitate reasonable and unified arrangements.
The prince in front stood with his hands behind his back in front of the county magistrate's mansion.
Someone immediately came forward and knocked on the door, bypassing the prince. "Bang, bang, bang... bang, bang...," the man knocked loudly a few times and waited quietly by the side, but after a long while, no one came to open the door.
The man thought for a moment and estimated that there were no more people in the County Magistrate's Mansion, but he could not act on his own and could only look back at his master behind him.
He guessed that his master might not be in a very good mood tonight. Sure enough, the person knocking on the door turned around and saw that the prince who seemed so handsome in front of others had narrowed his eyes dangerously.
Under the veil that had been removed during the fight was a face that was stunning no matter how you looked at it, but now, black air was emanating from that face.
My scalp jumped. Oh my, this is not a good sign. Smart people know that this is a sign that the prince is about to get angry.
Someone is going to be in trouble.
The person knocking on the door licked the corner of his dry lips, quietly retracted his foot, turned around and walked back.
As expected, after walking only two steps, I heard the prince sneer, and said lazily: "The Yuncheng County Magistrate probably has poor hearing, so knock closer."
After saying that, Xie Xiao used his toes to lift himself into the air, and instantly flew over the high wall of the County Governor's Mansion and disappeared...
The people who stayed outside shuddered at the same time, and hurried to catch up using their lightness skills.
The dark figures disappeared one after another from the top of the wall of the County Magistrate's Mansion, leaving only a broken bluestone slab in front of the door...
The fine cracks are like spider webs woven on the stone...
It was a dark and windy night, and someone who had just been hit in the face in a fight was in a bad mood.
Now he was assigned to pull a cart in the county magistrate's mansion, which made him even more unhappy.
"Bang... clang... crash..."
The door of a room in the backyard was kicked open suddenly. As luck would have it, the old man who was about to open the door was kicked onto the table behind him. After smashing the table, he leaned weakly against the wall.
Large mouthfuls of blood spurted out of his mouth. Just before his cloudy eyes closed, Yun Yingjie saw a dark crowd blocking his door. The person leading the crowd had a clear and distinguished temperament.
Yun Yingjie smiled, feeling relieved, and slowly closed his eyes...
Cloud City is saved...
"Prince, he's still breathing." A man ran up, squatted down, and put his finger under Yun Yingjie's nose to test it twice.
Fortunately, the prince should have stopped walking, otherwise it would have been a very bad situation at this moment.
The county magistrate is an official appointed by the imperial court. Even if he makes any mistakes, the emperor will make the final decision. He cannot die easily at the hands of the prince.
"I'll go find the county lady right away. She can still be saved." The man didn't wait for the prince's response and flew away in a hurry.
When leaving the door, he stayed away from his prince's sight.
He didn't notice that his son's eyes, which were originally filled with anger, slowly calmed down.
Even the corners of his mouth slightly raised an arc...
"What are you all standing there for? Do you want me to teach you how to drive a bullock cart?"
Everyone: "..."
Scatter like birds and beasts...
……
In the back garden of the mansion in the southwest corner of Yuncheng, there were supplies all over the ground and people trapped like dumplings.
A woman was squatting beside a dry well, lowering her head and looking inside.
There are two heads next to it, one is cute and furry with shoulders, and the other is a big white hairy head.
Big Head seemed a little timid as he tried his best to get closer to the woman. His small eyes kept glancing towards the woman's shoulders and his butt was twisting this and that, and no one knew what he was trying to do.
Li Jiaojiao was looking at the bottom of the well. Her eyesight had been nourished by the spiritual spring water and she could see completely at night, but now she was relying on her special abilities to feel the conditions at the bottom of the well while looking.
The bottom of the well is wet, but there is no water because the well is not deep enough and has not reached the groundwater level.
This is why there is no water in the city.
This is probably due to the lack of technology in ancient times. They could not detect where to dig wells to find water, nor could they dig wells deeper. Therefore, although there was a lot of groundwater in ancient times, it was not used reasonably.
These problems can be solved slowly and gradually, but how can we cook without water right now?
She reached out and tapped the edge of the well. Would it attract attention if she filled a well with water?
Wouldn't it be too conspicuous to use the ability to make the grass drill a well now?
It would be great if Lu Liang was here. That cunning man would definitely have a way.
"Junior sister, stop looking. There is a water source on the hill outside the city. We need to go out of the city to get water." Lan Lan took a breath as she opened her mouth and moved her cheek, which was probably swollen. Her left eye was a little difficult to open.
This damn Xie Xiao, doesn’t he know that you shouldn’t hit someone in the face?
He had forgotten that he was the one who punched the other person in the face first...
……
The door was opened from the outside.
The sound of rutting wheels came from afar and then stopped at the door. All the items in the open space in the back garden were moved onto the ox cart.
The cart that carried corpses during the day was now carrying Yuncheng’s life-saving rations.
Life and death intersect at this moment.
Li Jiaojiao had been hurriedly called away to treat the Yuncheng governor.
When he was leaving, he shouted, "Brother, I'll leave the task of transporting the water to you."
Lan Lan reluctantly answered yes, but her face turned dark as her junior sister left.
The imperial envoy for disaster relief is Xie Xiao. Junior sister, you only need to eliminate the plague in Yuncheng. Now if you go out to transport water into the city, aren’t you working for that kid?
Hey!
The gentlemanly Lan Lan suddenly learned how to curse without any instruction.
"Let's go and carry water." The angry voice expressed strong dissatisfaction, and Lanlan waved her sleeves and left.
Let the people of Yuncheng have a bite to eat first.
