Chapter 1382: It's not raining (2)
Chapter 1382 No Rain (2)
When Lu Xiaoxiao was digging herbs in Xanadu until five o'clock in the evening, she planned to go down the mountain. Since this outdoor peach garden is not affected by the outside climate, she doesn't have to worry about the things in Xanadu dying from drought.
When Lu Xiaoxiao went down the mountain and returned to the door of her house, she saw Second Sister Liu standing at the door of her house, so she immediately stepped forward and said, "Second Sister, do you have anything to do with me?"
"It's okay, I just want to see if you have returned home safely. Since you have returned home safely now, then I will go home."
"Thank you, Second Sister."
"It's right for friends to care about each other, so you don't have to say thank you to me."
"good."
After Liu Ermei left, Lu Xiaoxiao opened the door and entered the yard. After entering the yard, she put all the herbs in the basket into the space. She came back late today, so she planned to process the herbs tomorrow. She was already tired today. It's been a day, let's go to bed early.
Time passed slowly without knowing it, and in a blink of an eye, a week later, it still did not rain in the past week, the captain has now arranged for the cows in the village to pull water, and the people in the village have been working since yesterday I just carried water to water the fields from morning to night. Because of the vast land and few people, the people in the village hardly took a break to carry water these two days, which made them exhausted.
The captain looked at the people in the village who were so tired that they were swaying when they walked, and his brows were tightly wrinkled. He knew that the method of manually carrying water to irrigate the ground would work for a day or two, but it would definitely not work if it continued like this for a long time.
But now he has no better way to solve the problem of water shortage in the field, so he can only let the people in the village grit their teeth and insist on carrying water to irrigate the field.
"Captain, we can't let the people in the village carry water like this anymore. Their bodies are already reaching their limits. If they carry on like this, their bodies will collapse due to overwork." Lu Xiaoxiao informed the village at the captain's When the people in the village were carrying water, she began to pay attention to the physical condition of the people in the village.
This afternoon, she noticed that many people were exhausted due to overwork and heatstroke, so she came to the captain. She really couldn't help but watch so many people exhausted.
"I also know that they can't continue carrying water like this, but now the fields are short of water. If they don't carry water to irrigate the fields, all the grain in the fields will die."
"Captain, is there no other way to get water?" Lu Xiaoxiao asked the captain.
"No."
"Then you know where there is water in the village besides the river."
The captain thought about it after hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's words, and he really thought of a place with water, but that place was nearly 200 meters away from the field, and it was also necessary to carry water.
"I know there is water in one place, but that place is nearly 200 meters away from here, and we still need to carry water."
"Captain, where is the place you mentioned, can you take me to see it?" Lu Xiaoxiao heard the captain said that there is water in other places, so she planned to ask the captain to take her to see it.
"Okay, I'll take you to see it now."
"good."
After Lu Xiaoxiao followed the captain for five or six minutes, she came to the foot of a mountain, and then she saw a spring flowing down from the mountain.
"Captain, I thought of a way, but I don't know if it can be implemented." Lu Xiaoxiao thought of a way to divert water when she saw the spring water, but she didn't know if there was a soft water pipe in this era, so she said no I know whether the method she came up with can be implemented.
