Farming in space: the struggle of peasant girls

Chapter 73 Chapter 073
Yang Erlang frowned, "It's too dangerous for you to go."

Mu Yu's voice was still uncomfortable, but it was much better than the previous few days, at least he could have some voice.

"I'll bring a few more people, and it's not my turn to take risks, don't worry.

Stop arguing with me. In front of everyone, you are the leader here. I'm afraid that something will happen if you're not here.

At least this first time, you have to stay. "

Yang Erlang was silent for a moment, then said,
"I'll help you choose some reliable people."

Mu Yu didn't refuse, "Okay."

So when she stopped to rest at noon the next day, there were ten men standing in front of Mu Yu, and all the men in the team were in front of her.

Mu Yu and the ten people looked at each other, covered their foreheads and looked for Yang Erlang,
"It's really unnecessary, the camp is more important than me, if you give me all the people, I don't need so many people.

I'm sure you understand this, but I don't quite understand what you've been doing lately. "

Yang Erlang pursed his lips, didn't speak, and didn't look at her.

Mu Yu was a little angry in his heart, but his face was relatively peaceful.
"What the hell are you thinking? This isn't like you anymore.

If you were the one who went out to search for water this time, would you be willing to take away all the young and old in the team and leave those old, weak, sick and disabled who are basically unable to fight back? "

Time is not enough, Mu Yu didn't say too much,
"I will change a few people to go with me, you don't have to worry, if something happens, I will send someone back to report."

The communication between the two was relatively restrained, and the others didn't know what happened.

Mu Yu adjusted his mood, and sent back the three corporal leaders out of ten people, and also sent back the three who had family members to take care of, leaving only four people.

For four people, it is enough to carry water, and the force is not low, but the number is not good enough, so she picked Zhao Cong, Cui Pang and Qi Shun, a few half-grown children, so that there would be enough manpower It is also much more convenient to inquire around and pass on information.

Mu Yu and the seven men headed towards the village with barrels, poles, ropes and so on.

The fact that there is a lack of water in the team is obvious, and these few people can get a little water from the team to drink. They are thirsty, and their lips are so chapped, so when they heard about looking for water, they naturally came full of fighting spirit .

Soon they were walking across the fields and into the village.

Low and dilapidated houses, wide open doors, bare dead trees, the whole village is quiet and there is no sound.

Standing on the small road at the head of the village, Mu Yu hesitated for a moment.

A man behind him said in a voice full of nostalgia and loss,

"Our village is probably like this now. Those who can run have run away, and those who can't run can't..."

Will those who can't escape and stay in the village survive?
Most likely not.

Mu Yu took a deep breath, emboldened himself, and said,
"Let's go, let's enter the village."

Mu Yu's courage is not bad, and there are a few people together, so he doesn't feel too much at this time.

After walking for a while, I saw two dead bones and corpses in other people's yards, but they passed by as soon as they passed, as if they hadn't been seen.

After all, their mission is to find water wells, there is no need to go into other people's yards to find abuse.

Besides, in troubled times and drought years, who hasn't seen a few dead people?
Even Mu Yu, I have seen him no less than ten times in the past few months, and I am almost used to it.

Several people searched for a while, but found nothing. Mu Yu felt that it was too slow, so eight people divided into two groups to search separately.

In fact, it is not much faster to divide into two groups. It may be much faster to divide into four groups, but it is not very safe.

Fortunately, not long after the grouping, Mu Yu's group found the well.

Mu Yu was surprised that things went smoothly, so the two people in the same group ran over excitedly and lay down on the edge of the well, one of them shouted,

"There is water! There is water! This feeling must be water, I know!"

The other two also looked happy and looked at Mu Yu one after another.

Mu Yu nodded, "Let's try fetching a bucket of water first."

The two men then worked hard to fetch water. Zhao Cong looked at the mouth of the well eagerly, then turned to her and said,

"Sister Muyu, I'm going to find Fatty Cui and his team."

Mu Yu was staring at the situation at the mouth of the well, and nodded upon hearing this, "Be careful."

The two people who were fetching water were very active, and quickly put the bucket down and began to pull the rope.

The arm muscles of the two became more and more tense, and Mu Yu also became more and more tense. She knew that it was water.

Sure enough, the next moment a bucket full of water was placed in front of her.

The splashing water drops reflect magnificent light under the sunlight. The water in the wooden barrel is very clear, soaking in the cool air from the bottom of the well. Just by looking at it, you can imagine the fun and joy after drinking it. Refreshing.

"This water is so good! The wells in Huangsha City are not so clean!"

"Master, now we have water to drink!"

"Yeah, there's a lot of water in this well, at least five or six barrels. We don't have to worry about water in the future!"

The two looked at the water in the bucket and licked their lips, with unconcealable longing in their eyes.

Mu Yu suppressed the smile on his face slightly, and said,
"Finding water is a good thing. Let's discuss this matter together when the five of them come back."

It didn't take long for the others to find them.

But there should have been five people, but when they came back, it turned into six, and there was one more person who was as skinny as a skeleton and was neither human nor ghost.

After Mu Yu sized up that person, her brows were tightly frowned. She scanned a few people, and finally looked at Fatty Cui,
"What's the matter with this man?"

"We went to the other side to find the well, and this man suddenly jumped out and shouted madly, we were startled, and we tied him up for fear of anything wrong.

Don't worry, Sister Muyu, we've finished going around the other side of the village, there should be no one else.

This man is insane and can't ask anything. "

Several other people nodded repeatedly to prove that Fatty Cui was right.

Mu Yu walked closer and took a closer look. There was indeed something wrong with this person's eyes. His cross-eyed eyes were still turning around, and his mouth kept making strange noises. It was obvious that he was seriously insane.

He may have been a madman all along, or he may have gone mad later.

However, this has nothing to do with her. It is obvious that time is running out to become so crazy and thin.

She retracted her gaze, stopped paying attention to the lunatic, and walked to the bucket of water instead, announcing,

"We found water here, and it's a good amount, enough to replace what we used before, which is good news."

Several people subconsciously moved a few steps closer to the bucket and the well. In this drought year, water is hope.

"We'll bring water back, but before that, you can drink something to quench your thirst."

"Thank you, Sister Muyu!"

"Thank you master!"

Several people were very excited and thanked Mu Yu one after another, and then they were going to drink water from the bucket.

The chained maniac was also excited,
"Don't drink! The water is poisonous!"
