Chapter 27 Looking for Water Source
Yuxiu took a look at the meat and found that they were indeed some fat ones. She originally thought about saying no, but it seemed a bit unreasonable, so she smiled and thanked him.
After a while, everyone was ready to go, and Cui also woke up. Originally, the Yang family enthusiastically invited her to get on the flatbed truck to rest, but Cui felt much better. Besides, there were a lot of wolf skins and wolf meat piled on the truck, and the stench was unbearable for her, so she refused.
For fear of offending others, the old lady asked the Yang family to break off some branches and cover the car with them to hide the things tightly.
The other families followed suit and also found ways to cover the meat, and then they hurried on their way.
"We don't have much water left. Our immediate task is to find drinkable water as soon as possible."
There was only a shallow layer of water left in the Yang family's wooden barrel. This was the result of so many people in the family saving and saving to save for emergencies.
"We don't have much water left. If we keep going, we'll probably die of thirst before we die of starvation."
"We have no water at home. When I killed the wolf just now, I was so thirsty that I couldn't stand it. I lay down and drank several mouthfuls of wolf blood. Finally, I felt better."
"You drank too? We all drank too. We couldn't help it. Our throats were almost dry and smoking..."
The people in the team were discussing in a low voice where they should find water. They could endure without food, but they really couldn't survive without water.
"Little system, do you know where to find water nearby?"
Looking at everyone's cracked lips, Yuxiu thought about it and decided to ask the system.
Didn’t he say he was a famine escape system?
We should at least contribute to the efforts to escape famine.
"Ding... Congratulations to the host for triggering the mission of the famine escape system. The people are thirsty and lack water. Please lead them to find a water source. This will complete the mission."
Yuxiu looked up at the sky and was speechless. She just asked casually, how did this trigger the task?
The key point is that there is dry and cracked land everywhere, and finding water is not as simple as a sentence.
"Let me think about this mission. I may not be able to complete it even if I accept it."
Yuxiu then remembered that when she killed the Wolf King, the small system said it would reward her with a spiritual spring. Since then, she has had no free time. As for where the spiritual spring is, she has not had time to look for it.
"Little system, where is the spiritual spring you promised to give me? I remember I clicked to receive it?"
Yuxiu used her consciousness to search the space, but found nothing. It was still the same things as before, but there was no spiritual spring.
"Hehe... Host, please check the backyard first, maybe you will find something."
The little guy kept it a secret, and Yuxiu became excited after hearing this, and immediately focused her attention into the backyard.
Shower room, toilet, sun room, small flower garden, well...
well?
"Will my well become a spiritual spring?"
Yuxiu was a little skeptical. When her mother was still alive, she liked to use the water from the well to wash clothes. She always said that clothes washed by hand were cleaner. After her mother passed away, she no longer had the free time, so she would just throw the clothes into the washing machine after changing them. She then covered the well with a piece of board.
But now is not a good time to check, let's wait until the next time I have a break.
"The host is amazing. He found it in no time."
The soft and cute voice of the system was a little excited, which made Yuxiu feel a little amused.
This little guy knows how to praise people.
"Host, have you considered whether to accept the mission? The reward this time is a lottery."
The system's voice was full of temptation. Yuxiu was excited when she thought of the good things she had won in the previous lottery. She gritted her teeth and agreed without hesitation.
She just suddenly thought of a solution. She just needed to find a small pond or a well. If that didn't work, she could just put some water in when no one was around. As long as everyone could drink water, then she would be considered to have accomplished her mission, right?
"Host has chosen to accept the mission. Complete it quickly so that you can receive the reward sooner."
After the system issued the task, it seemed to be afraid that Yuxiu might not be able to find water and would give up, so it kindly gave some hints.
"System reminder: Going into the mountains along the river, although the mountain road is rugged, it will give you a better chance of finding water."
Yuxiu was delighted, thinking it was a good hint. She stretched her neck and looked around, but she didn't see any river at all.
Yuxiu was still wondering whether they should turn back after encountering the river when they came here yesterday, when she heard Boss Yang and a few others talking nearby.
"Everyone, hold on a little longer. We came here last year. There is a mountain stream in front of us. The river looked quite wide then. Let's go over and take a look."
"Then walk faster. Even if there isn't as much water as before, or even if there is less, we can make do with it."
"Go, go, go..."
When everyone heard that there might be water ahead, they all licked their cracked lips and rushed forward with all their might.
"Girl, let's go."
Cui pulled Yuxiu, and the two of them mixed in the crowd, and everyone ran forward together.
Seeing the joy on Cui's face, Yuxiu knew that there was no way there could be water in the river ahead, otherwise the system would not have said that.
Sure enough, looking at the gray-white river mud ahead that was sunburned, the people who were barely holding on could no longer hold on and all sat down on the land by the river.
"Oh my God! There is no way for us to survive..."
"If such a big river can be dried up, we won't be able to find water even if we keep walking."
“Wuwuwu… Rather than dying of thirst, I might as well just bump into a wall and die…”
The men's faces were filled with pain and despair, the women collapsed on the ground and cried, and the children saw their mothers crying, and they were too hungry and thirsty to bear it, and they all burst into tears.
Everyone burst into tears at once. They were already dirty and now with the tears they looked even dirtier.
"Everyone, stop crying. We haven't reached the final step yet. Let's keep looking. Maybe there is still a chance."
Since Yuxiu has accepted the task, of course she has to find a way to complete it.
"Look over there. The water of this river comes from the mountains. Let's go a little further along the river. Even if we can't find water, we can still find a shady place to roast the wolf meat and eat it."
The people who were making noise stopped. Some wanted to question, but when they saw that the person speaking was Yuxiu, they thought about the black bow and arrow in her backpack, their eyes flashed and they chose to shut up.
