Go through the wild and seek life

Chapter 61 The Dark River (2)
"..." Rudama didn't turn the corner for a moment. Does the issue they are discussing now have anything to do with liking?She looked into Ye's eyes, trying to see what he was thinking from his eyes.

"Like it, Dharma!"

Ye spoke seriously, her dark purple eyes tightly locked on Rudama's delicate face.

silence……

still silent...

Rudama felt that he understood what Ye meant.

Like, Ye just simply likes herself, it has nothing to do with race, appearance, or ability, just like, very pure like.

Yes, I like it, I also like night, don't I?The same has nothing to do with race, has nothing to do with appearance, just by feeling.That's enough, what is she still struggling with?No matter what kind of liking it is, whether it is family love, companionship, or companionship, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that she likes it, isn't it?
Rudama suddenly felt a bright light in her heart. She hugged Ye's thin waist tightly and said loudly: "Yes, I like, I like Ye!"

After solving the entanglement in my heart, everything seemed to be back on track.

Rudama's wild calendar records the 260th and ninth day of spring.The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Rudama even doubts whether the weather here has quietly entered summer.

Since the protracted heavy snow in winter, not a single drop of water has fallen from the sky.

Rudama was thinking, if the snow hadn't completely melted and poured into the land, providing abundant groundwater for the vegetation here, these trees and flowers might have died of drought long ago.But watching the land gradually dry out, even the stream in the canyon became smaller and smaller, as if a gate had been installed somewhere to throttle the stream.This made Rudama very worried. There was no food, grass roots and tree bark. If there was no water, there would be no solution. Should she ask Ye to help dig a well?Wells are easy to dig, but it is too difficult to dig wells with water. I don’t know how to search for water sources!Rudama was worried.

It's not that Rudama has never thought about storing water, but it's a stupid idea after all, and it neither cures the symptoms nor the root cause, at most delaying the time when she and Ye were thirsty to death.

Another [-] days passed, and there was only a small stream of water flowing through the pebbles at the bottom of the stream, and many fish died of drought.

Rudama squatted by the stream worrying, poking the dead fish with a small branch in his hand.Ye, on the other hand, looked very happy, picked up all these fish ashore, cleaned the fish scales and internal organs, and then began to rub salt on them one by one.This is the salted fish Rudama taught him.

Rudama glanced at Ye Ye and sighed softly, it's really a young man who doesn't know how to feel sad!Don't you worry about running out of water at night?

In the end, Rudama decided to use that stupid method. She brought out several large wooden barrels, filled them with water, and covered them tightly with animal skins to minimize evaporation.Now this can only be counted as a day, and I pray that it will rain sooner.

Ye was a little puzzled by Rudama's actions.

"Dama?" he asked, pointing to the large buckets of water.

Rudama gave him a "you fool" look and said, "The stream is almost dry, save some water, otherwise we will both be thirsty to death before it rains."

After hearing what Rudama said, Ye immediately let out a gasp-like laugh.

Rudama was depressed. Nine out of ten times out of ten times this guy made this kind of laughter, he was laughing at her.

Ye laughed enough, stretched out her long arms, carried her on his back, and walked towards the depths of the canyon.

What is this for?Rudama was confused.

They had walked this road when they were looking for the oil turtle.

Ye walked with her on his back for about ten minutes and then stopped.Rudama looked at the surrounding environment. The cliffs on both sides stood tall, and the vegetation was not tall, but very lush, which made Rudama very strange.Because there has been no rain for a long time and the sun is scorching, most of the plants have been wilted, but why is this place so special?
Rudama regained her spirits all of a sudden, she climbed off Ye's back and began to observe carefully.

She soon discovered the mechanism.

Rudama found that the stream, which was not very strong, was diverted by a large rock standing in the channel.One continues along the river, and where does the other go?

She climbed down the river along the bank, and she found that there was a place similar to a spring behind the huge rock, but other springs leaked water, and this "eye" kept absorbing water.

Rudama suddenly understood that there was a dark river here, and this discovery made her excited. Turning her head, the night on the shore was smiling at her.

No wonder, seeing that he was about to run out of water, he was not in a hurry at night, so he still had such a precious land.Rudama stared at Ye and stuck out her tongue, hum, she didn't tell herself.

After grimacing, Rudama turned back to study the dark river.

The entrance of the dark river is not too big, it is dark at first glance, and it feels very deep, and half of it is blocked by boulders, and fish over three feet cannot swim in. No wonder, all the fish that died of drought are big ones Well, all the small fish should have gone into the dark for refuge.

How did you drink water at night?Rudama was surprised, and she called Ye down to answer the question.Ye blinked her dark purple eyes at her, didn't speak, didn't make any movements, just looked at her arrogantly and smiled, which meant: come and please me!
Rudama twitched the corners of his mouth, decided not to be as knowledgeable as him, smiled gently at Ye, and then asked without shame.

Ye had had enough of chattering, and motioned for Rudama to give way, then stepped forward and pushed the big stone aside, revealing the wide entrance of the dark river.It was a slope, and with Rudama's height, there was no problem walking down it upright, and Ye could also climb down it if he transformed into a leopard.But why did he block the mouth of the river with a huge boulder?This is completely unnecessary!

Rudama frowned, couldn't figure it out, didn't want to.She walked down the slope carefully, wanting to see what it looked like inside, would there be some kind of sewer mermaid?This world is very different from my original world, maybe there are really some monsters in it, if this happens...

Thinking of this, Rudama was a little excited, but also a little nervous, she turned her head to look at Ye, and invited him to go down with her with her eyes.

Ye didn't show any pretense, she turned into a black panther and walked in front of Rudama.

The underground river is very deep and dark. It can be imagined that when the water was plentiful, it must be full of water. Now that there is less water, there is more mysterious flavor.Listening to the sound of gurgling water and stepping on the uneven pebbles hit by the water, Rudama walked with one foot deep and one foot shallow. She suddenly understood why there was such a big rock at the entrance of the cave. It was not blocked by the night. , but moved over under the long-term impact of the water flow.
