Chapter 58 The fairy water in the water tank?

Qiao Ran had no idea that the old village chief was targeting her and would even have the idea of ​​making a woman like herself the village chief.

It wasn't that she looked down on women, but she was surprised that the old village chief had such advanced awareness.

After all, in this era, women are dependent on men for survival.

It is simply unheard of for a woman to show up and take on a major role.

She was naturally confident in herself, but she never thought she would have to shoulder such a heavy burden.

She just wanted to protect the dozen or so people in her family and let them live a better life.

After dividing the belongings, everyone went back to eating and washing pots and dishes.

After everyone had finished eating and washed the dishes, Qiao Ran took advantage of the fact that there were not many people using water for the time being, and found two large water tanks in the village. The water in the two water tanks was only half full.

She took advantage of others not paying attention and filled half a tank of spiritual spring water in her own space, filling both tanks.

She didn't know if the efficacy of the spiritual spring water diluted by half a tank of water would be greatly reduced, but she thought it should still be somewhat effective, right?

As long as the injured villagers can recover faster than ordinary people in the past few days, they can go down the mountain earlier and reach their destination earlier.

Finally, there was no need to rush on the road, and the villagers in Qingshui Village felt particularly relaxed.

After dinner, everyone chatted for a while and then went back to their respective resting places to sleep early.

After traveling for more than two months, they had never stopped for a good rest. These few days were a rare time for them to relax.

Not only would they have food to eat, but they would also be given cloth and property, and they would also have a place to sleep well without having to worry about getting up early the next morning to travel.

Some people are even thinking about how great it would be if they could just stay and live on this mountain!

There are houses, mountains, water, and prey here. They can open up wasteland and farm in the mountains, so they don't have to work so hard to escape.

Someone ran to the old village chief and made this suggestion.

"Village Chief, why don't we just stay here and not leave? Anyway, we have to reestablish our roots wherever we go. There are ready-made houses here, so it's good for us to live here."

The old village chief rewarded those people with a big bang, and then started to scold them a lot.

"You are really short-sighted. Is this village a place where we farmers can live? We are not afraid that others will treat you like bandits."

"Besides, there are mountains here. Tianlang Mountain is so steep. Water for food has to be carried up from the bottom of the mountain. Where can we open up wasteland for farming? Don't we need to use water for farming? Or do you go to the bottom of the mountain every day to carry it up to water the crops?"

"And I don't know how long this bandit den has existed, how many evil things it has done, and how many people it has harmed? How many innocent souls are there on this mountain?"

"There are too many refugees now, and the government can't spare any money. If after a while, the government thinks of encircling the stronghold, and will arrest you as bandits and behead you, how can you explain?"

"And if you stay here, how are you going to apply for household registration documents? Is it possible that you want to say that you live in the Bandit Village in Tianlang Mountain? Do you think the government will apply for documents for you? Without documents, you are refugees, and your children will not be able to do so in the future. Household registration documents.”

"Refugees can't go anywhere. Do you want to be trapped in this mountain for the rest of your life and let your children become refugees and bandits for the rest of their lives?"

When these villagers who thought they were smart heard this, they immediately felt that their ideas were really naive and ridiculous.

They apologized hurriedly to the old village chief and went back dejectedly.

Yes, they don’t want to be regarded as bandits and be suppressed by the government!

When going to bed at night, the Qiao family all live in the assembly hall with several other families in Qingshui Village. They lay a layer of oil paper on the ground and put a quilt or hay on top to sleep.

Qiao Ran asked Wu Qianqian to sleep next to her.

It wasn't that Qiao Ran trusted this girl too much, but that she was worried that the other bandits would hate her and secretly seek revenge on her.

Putting her next to him was to protect her safety; secondly, he was worried that she would suddenly commit suicide; and thirdly, it was undeniable that Qiao Ran was still a little wary of this girl.

After all, there are people of all kinds in this world. Who knows if she might be the bandit leader who hides the most?

Rather than letting her harm other people, it would be better to put her under his nose. As long as she dares to harm others, Qiao Ran will kill her without hesitation.

On the first night in this bandit's village, everyone slept peacefully except for those who took turns keeping watch.

Early the next morning, the only big rooster in the village croaked "OoOoOo", and the birds in the woods chirped, waking everyone up from their sleep.

The old village chief was preparing to arrange for people to go down the mountain to carry water for breakfast, but a villager came to report.

"Village Chief, the water in the two water tanks was only half full last night, but now it is full. What do you think is going on?"

"What, is there such a strange thing?"

When everyone heard this, they all walked towards the place where the water tank was placed.

The old village chief also hurried over with everyone. When he saw that there were only two and a half tanks of water left last night, but now there were two full tanks, he couldn't help but think of the old immortal who taught Qiao Ran his skills.

Could it be that in order to help Qiao Ran, the old god even filled their water tanks with water?

Recalling the time when Qiao Ran found a pool in the mountain stream and asked everyone to fill it with water, the old village chief couldn't help but wonder, could that be the water source that the old god was looking for for Qiao Ran?

Otherwise, everyone has searched all around but still can't find water. Why can Ran Yatou find it?

It would make sense if there was an old god to bless him.

No wonder, he felt that the water was particularly sweet when he drank it. It tasted better than the water he had drank in most of his life.

And after drinking it, I feel refreshed and energetic.

His cold legs, which he had suffered for many years, seemed to have never happened again after that.

Can the water given by the old god not taste good? Can't it be refreshing? Can fairy water not have magical effects?

When the old village chief thought of this, his white beard trembled with excitement.

He picked up the water ladle floating on top of the water tank, scooped up a ladle of water, and drank several large gulps.

Sure enough, he tasted the sweet taste again, but it was a little lighter than the water he drank from the pool last time.

I guess it's because it was mixed with the original half tank of water, so it's not as sweet as the last time.

However, it is much better than the water I drink from other places.

The villagers were surprised when they saw the two full tanks of water.

"Who filled these two tanks of water so early in the morning? How can someone do good deeds without leaving their name?"
