The blue water and green rhythm of the white snake

It turns out that the sensitivity of snakes is extremely precise.It was just because of the sign that Qing Bishui was about to molt, Bai Suzhen ignored her own reaction.After so many years of cultivation, she doesn't say that cold and heat don't invade, at least she won't get sweaty from the heat in spring.

Qing Bishui drank the last sip of water from the kettle, and when Bai Suzhen wanted to moisten her throat, she suddenly found that all the kettles on her body were empty.Their kettles are nothing ordinary, and they should hold a lot of water.It's just that I don't know when, I can't find a suitable water source to replenish the water storage.I looked at the surrounding trees, and they all had drooping leaves, looking like they lacked water and lacked energy.

Bai Suzhen was shocked, and Qing Bishui realized the abnormality: "What's the matter, doesn't it mean that the misty and rainy South Beauty is hazy? This drooping head looks like the northwest. It's been a long time since it rained."

"No, the south of the Yangtze River is used to having plenty of water, so how could it look like this?" Bai Suzhen calculated with her fingers, and the doubts on her face became more obvious. "According to reason, there will be no shortage of water here. I didn't figure it out here either." There are cases where it won’t let it rain.”

Bai Suzhen and Qing Bishui sisters, the two snake monsters, were under-prepared and lacked water, not to mention Xu Xian and the two officials who were ahead of them.The tall official surnamed Hu took out the water hyacinth and shook it, as if there was still some water in it.

"Don't waste your time, you have tried a cup of tea before, and there is no drop of water." The person who spoke was a thin and short official servant who looked like a skinny monkey, and more coincidentally, his surname was Sun.

"Could it be that you have it? You ran out of water earlier than me." The surname Hu carefully pulled out the stopper, there was a drop of water near the mouth of the gourd, and it couldn't fall into his mouth no matter what.Unbearable and impatient, he stuck out his tongue and licked along the gourd.

The one surnamed Sun couldn't help but swallowed his saliva: "You really touched it, and there is still such a drop. Shit luck! I'll take a look at mine too." He stuck out his tongue and didn't lick anything. It is good to just open your mouth and shake the empty gourd to your mouth, hoping to shake out a drop of water.

Xu Xian couldn't stand the vulgar look of the two of them sticking out their tongues, so he hurriedly took out his gourd: "You two servants, I still have a mouthful of water here."

Throwing away his empty gourd, the one surnamed Sun grabbed Xu Xian's water bottle, swallowed the last sip of water, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Then what do you do?" The surname Hu didn't rush, and said to Xu Xian embarrassingly, "You don't have to drink."

Xu Xian pursed his lips slightly: "Isn't it coming to Yueshui Town? When we get to the town, we will have a place to replenish water." Xu Xian still had a word in his heart. Not only did he need to replenish water, but the current kettle is not enough It's time to get a new one.

"It will take half a day to walk, and it is estimated that we will arrive in the evening."

"It's okay. I don't sweat as much as the two bad guys, so I'm not very thirsty." Xu Xian spoke with a forced smile on his face.What else can I do, the water has been drunk by others and can't be spit out.Even if there was a drop or two left in it, Xu Xian couldn't do the thing of sticking out his tongue to lick the water, not to mention that the kettle had been used by other men.

When Xu Xian spoke to such an extent, the official clerk surnamed Sun naturally felt at ease.He thumped Xu Xian's shoulder: "Good boy, you looked gentle and unreliable, but now you seem to be loyal."

He still overestimated the scholar's physical strength, and Xu Xian almost reeled from the blow.Bai Suzhen, who was watching from a distance, let out a "hiss" in distress, and then complained to Qing Bishui: "Can't those officials be polite and reasonable? My family's husband has good intentions."

"But it's not malicious." Qing Bishui didn't even bother to lift her eyelids now, because of the lack of water, the skin was dry, and the feeling of shedding was even more obvious.She complained: "As for Xu Xian's body, he should have been exercising. Now that he is with these officials who are regarded as martial arts, maybe he will look healthier in the future."

Since the last quarrel, Qing Bishui never called Xu Xian's brother-in-law again.Bai Suzhen suddenly worried about gain and loss: "Qing'er, are you still angry with my sister? You haven't even called your brother-in-law."

"Why did I call him? We haven't met yet." Looking at Bai Suzhen's sensitive eyes, Qing Bishui had no choice but to add another sentence: "Do I look angry now? If I was angry, I would have ignored people long ago."

I thought that when I arrived at Yueshui Town, I could replenish what I wanted, but it was not difficult to find that the closer to the town, the drier it would be.You can even see almost dead trees and crops on the side of the road.The soil that should have been full of stagnant water also exposed the soil below, and the soil that should have been wet was almost dry.Only a little bit of pond water can be seen at the bottom of the pond. The water is mixed with silt and sand, making it extremely turbid.Dirty water is also very precious. Residents keep driving cattle, sheep and other livestock over to let them go to the pond to drink water.

"What's going on here?" This is probably the voice of everyone who saw all this.

This is in the south of the Yangtze River, not in the northwest, and it even falls under the jurisdiction of Hangzhou.But the arid scene in front of him was completely devoid of the appearance that Misty Rain Jiangnan should have.Qing Bishui even rubbed her eyes in disbelief: "Sister, it's not true. It must be because I'm going to shed my skin and it's too uncomfortable, so I have hallucinations. But it's too strange that there is a lack of water in the hallucination."

A child on the side of the road saw an outsider, and seeing Xu Xian's talkative appearance, hurried up to hug his thigh: "Big Brother, is there any water? Give me some water."

"Sorry, we don't have any water either." Xu Xian smiled awkwardly, "Is there no water in your town?"

Hearing this, the child sent Xu Xian's legs away, and walked back unhappy.The two officials felt strange, stopped him and asked, "Didn't I ask you, is there any water in your town?"

"If there is water to drink, I will ask you for water to drink. I haven't seen what is going on in our town." The child even played a fool, "It makes me talk when there is no water, how uncomfortable. You pay me for water .”

"In the past, in the past!" The officer surnamed Sun waved his hands, "You have to roll and beat, so as not to stain the clothes of the master. It looks like it hasn't been washed now."

There was a lot of commotion, and a man came after a while, and he smiled at Xu Xian and his party: "Are you guys going to drink water? It's a little bit in a small house, but..." He rubbed his fingers and made a gesture. A hand gesture asking for money.

"It's okay to ask for money, as long as there is water." Hu Guancha was already dying of thirst.Hangzhou is a big city, and there are people selling water with buckets on weekdays.The two officials came from Hangzhou after all, so they were not surprised that the water cost money.

"Come on, let's make a price. Don't be petty and cover up." The officer surnamed Sun followed suit.

The man smiled and stretched out his fingers to make a gesture.The price of water in Hangzhou is [-] cents for a large bucket. The two officials thought about the drought situation in Yueshui Town and guessed, "One penny for a bowl?"

"That can." The man smiled, but the smile didn't answer his eyes, and there was even a hint of sarcasm at the corner of his mouth.Obviously the few in front of him were not the high-flyers he thought.He raised his chin, and made a comparison again: "One tael of silver for a pot of water, there is no second price in the whole Yueshui Town."

"Why don't you go grab it!" Sun Guancha was so angry that he almost jumped up, and he even made a gesture of drawing his sword: "It's not that Mo Xian was bored in the play, playing tricks on your grandpa."

The official clerk surnamed Hu was afraid that his colleagues would be impatient and cause trouble for him, so he hurried forward to stop him.But I didn't want the man to take a step back, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a sneer: "Why do you have to play with a low-level commoner like me? Now it's over, the water is not for sale. There are still people who store water in this town. Many, I still have a bit of face when I am young. But it is not that the water source for a few of you is cut off, if you want to drink water, I am afraid that you will be wronged." He pointed to the pond not far away, and then swaggered away up.

There were many livestock around the pond, and a mangy dog ​​ran out of nowhere.It lifted its legs and pissed into the pond.Obviously, the man was insulting them, implying that they wanted to compete with livestock for water.Leaving aside the secret meaning, based on the actual situation seen here, the water is really not drinkable.

Xu Xian was thirsty and tired, and with such a situation, he almost wanted to pass out directly.There was no blood on his face, his sweaty hair felt particularly uncomfortable on his body, and his lips were chapped and peeling.Bai Suzhen in the distance looked worried and distressed.
