Chapter 68
"This matter has a lot to do with those two people who crawled out a few days ago. I guess the magistrate should be dubious and sent someone to follow us secretly." When Village Chief Li said this, he looked at it meaningfully. One look at He Caogen, whoever told them that these people were recruited by people from their village.
"Tsk, tsk, didn't you see that those old scalpers in our team who were dying of thirst were all inspected a few times by them."
"What is there to check for this cow?"
"You don't understand this, do you? Is it a miracle? Maybe it's the manifestation of the bull god." After finishing speaking, Village Chief Li laughed to himself.
"Speaking of this, He Tuliang in your village must have suffered retribution. Yesterday, the old scalper in their family didn't persevere and died of thirst.
Last night, they asked someone to help separate the cows overnight, but no one was willing to help. Now the family is still busy there. "
"It shouldn't be!" Village Chief Shi was a little surprised, "It's still meat anyway, as long as you give others a little favor, there should be someone willing to help."
He Caogen just wanted to lower his head to his chest, no one was willing to help, but the He Zhou family was too powerful, and only willing to give half a catty of beef, and said that everyone would take advantage of them.
Now as long as you have the strength, who would not want to find more grass roots outside to replenish water and help their family deal with the cattle, making it stinky and unable to clean it up, and it will be even more miserable in the days to come.
Let's talk about half a catty of meat, who is this to blame?Not enough to replenish physical strength, even the new refugees are unwilling.
"Several elders have come over, now let's ask them what to do? It's not an option to stay in this place all the time, and if you don't find other ways to survive, you are really waiting for death." He Caogen saw Xiangxie come over A few of you said quickly.
"Is there any other way out? The hope of all of us is blocked by this wall. Can we go back? Can we walk?"
"Don't say anything frustrating here." Gu Sanbu glanced at them, "Tomorrow one person from each family will be drawn out, and then we will form a team and go to a farther place to find it. If it doesn't work, let's find a wet place and see. Can you dig out the water source?"
This is what the few of them just discussed in the corner. They can't move forward, they can't retreat, and now they can only think of a way in the field.
There is water in this city, which means that the drought here is not as severe as other places, and there must be a way to survive.
"Ah! Dig it yourself?" Village Chief Shi said with a bitter face, "I can't spare so many people."
Their village has the most scattered people. Now more than half of the elderly and children, and half of the women are deducted, there are not many who can really do anything.
"Then what should we do? Everyone is waiting to die?" Shi Lichang saw that this nephew didn't give him face, so he almost raised the crutch in his hand.
"But……"
"That's it. It's settled. You should hurry up and notify today, and assign people early tomorrow morning." After the few old people finished speaking, they walked to the city gate together without any ink marks from the village chiefs. Every day they would Inquire about the situation here, in case some noble people come out to distribute food and water one day, they can also be the first to line up.

"Uncle, aunt, my Brother Yuan Yu and the others are back." Before Gu Mingqiu arrived, his voice had already rang outside the city gate.
"Yuan Yu? Lao Qi and the others are back?" Gu Dashi stood up abruptly, accidentally pulling the wound on his shoulder, causing him to squat down again in pain.
"Old Qi, have you seen our family Le Tian and Le Jia?" Xie Ruyi changed her lifeless appearance and rushed over, her eyes searching the crowd, and slowly fell into disappointment again.
"Sister-in-law?" Gu Wenheng looked at this woman with a withered face and messy hair, and couldn't believe it. This was the sister-in-law who was meticulously combed a few days ago and always had a face. "Why did Le Tian and Le Jia not go out of the city?" ?"
"Are you not together?" Xie Ruyi was still unwilling to give up, "Then have you met them in the city? Have you heard of them?"
Jin Qianqian was also shocked by Xie Ruyi's change. How could he make people like this in just a few days, "Sister-in-law, we separated from everyone as soon as we entered the city, and we didn't meet them."
Xie Ruyi shook her head in disappointment, turned around and left again muttering to herself.
"Now you are back, but there is no news from the second elder brother's family, Letian and Lejia, my sister-in-law is really worried." Hong Daya said with some discomfort while holding Gu Leshun by the hand.
Sister-in-law looks like this, she is really anxious and crazy.
"Fifth sister-in-law," Jin Qianqian greeted Hong Daya, then squatted down and looked at Gu Leshun, "Xiao Shunshun, do you miss your aunt?"
But when she saw Gu Leshun's cracked and blood-stained lips, she felt distressed, "Is our little Leshun thirsty? Auntie will give you some water first."
Jin Qianqian quickly took off the bamboo tube on her waist, which she boiled overnight last night.
But Xiao Le went to look up at Hong Daya, waiting for her to speak.
Hong Daya swallowed her saliva, her eyes turned red, she also knelt down and looked at the two of them, "Seventh brother and sister, sister-in-law owes this kind of favor, I will find a way to repay you in the future."
Jin Qianqian ignored her, and carefully put the bamboo tube to Gu Leshun's mouth, "Auntie will feed you, let's drink slowly, Auntie will save all the water for you."
Gu Leshun took two sips, then gently pushed the bamboo tube away, "Can my mother drink some?"
"Yes, Auntie will give you all the water in the bamboo tube, can you make a decision?"
"..." Xiao Leshun looked at Hong Daya obediently.
"How can this be? It's hard to get a piece of water now, so my siblings still keep it." Hong Daya didn't dare to continue, you know, even if the whole Bainiao is squeezed, it may not be able to gather such a bamboo tube of water .
During their short exchange, the Gu family gathered around, and many of them looked at the bamboo tube in Jin Qianqian's hand with sparkling eyes.
"Aunt Seven, give us a drink of water too!" Gu Lehua stretched out her hands in front of her, but her eyes were fixed on the bamboo tube in her hand.
Jin Qianqian put the bamboo tube in her hand directly into Hong Daya's hand, "This is what Auntie has promised to give to Le Shun..."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Liu interrupted sharply, "These are all the nephews and nieces of Lao Qi, so you can't treat them differently.
How could Leshun monopolize such a large bamboo tube of water?It's not good to be so eccentric as an elder. "
Jin Qianqian's face darkened. They hung so many bamboo tubes around their waists, and they were thinking of giving them one for their small family, but they were accused of this before they finished speaking.
Now she is not happy, anyway, there is such a high-pitched scream, which means that she is not very thirsty, so she will continue to suffer.
