Chapter 4 Finding and Feeding Water
Boom!
There was a tooth-aching friction sound. Zuo Qiufeng pressed on the mechanism on the stone wall. Listening to the harsh noise of the stone door slowly stretching, he wondered if he should find some lubricating oil and splash it on. If this sound was enough,
It would be strange if it doesn't attract ferocious beasts for a long time.
I didn't dare to completely open the stone wall, only half of the gap was opened for one person to pass through sideways.
Of course, this gap can only be passed through by men, not women. After all, the cross-sectional area is different, so there is no way.
"We're out, but we're in the middle of nowhere. Where can we find water?"
Zuo Qiufeng put his hand into a stone crevice covered by weeds, triggered the mechanism, and closed the door of the dark cave again. Fortunately, this shelter was left by the villain boss who had already received the lunch, otherwise he would not have been there.
There is such a good hiding place, not to mention it is in the deep mountains and old forests where dangers abound and ferocious beasts roam.
We are out, but on such a big mountain, where to find water is really a problem.
I also thought that Dongfang Shuo, who was suspected to be the hero of fantasy, was covered with bruises after wandering around this mountain twice. He, a mortal, couldn't even defeat Lu Waner, who was also in the Foundation Establishment Realm. It was really a shame to be beaten and defeated.
ah.
As for why he didn't rummage through Lu Waner's storage ring for supplies?
Haha, stop joking.
Going through a girl's things, let's not talk about whether Zuo Qiufeng can do such a shameless thing... Probably, Zuo Qiufeng will never admit that he has no such thing as spiritual power at all, let alone
I can't open the storage ring, even if I know there are good things in the ring, I can only stare.
...It brings tears to my eyes when I say it.
"Time waits for no one. It's better to find the water source quickly and come back as soon as possible. The outside world is really too dangerous!"
In order to hold water, Zuo Qiufeng carried an earthen jar the size of his head and two porcelain bowls. They were originally used to store dry food, but now they can only be used as water jars.
Fortunately, although there was some dust on this earthen jar, it had obviously not been used, otherwise he might not have used this earthen jar to fill water.
Although I don’t have mysophobia, I still feel uncomfortable with things that have been used by other grown men.
In order to find the water source and return as soon as possible, Zuo Qiufeng did not hesitate and immediately explored deeper into the grass. He still held a long wooden stick in his hand and beat it on the lawn and bushes from time to time.
From time to time, there are plans to drive away some small animals, or to avoid some venomous snake poisons in advance.
In this wilderness, being bitten by a venomous snake is basically equivalent to "death".
Puff puff puff!
The wooden sticks were slapping in front of him. Fortunately, there were no dangers along the way. However, it cannot be denied that this area was probably cleaned up by someone with a useful tool. In just a short time, Zuo Qiufeng realized that
There were no less than a dozen beheaded prey.
Among the prey, there are hares, wild boars, and wild goats... Although they are not ferocious beasts, Zuo Qiufeng may not be able to handle them.
Naturally, these prey were all cheap for Zuo Qiufeng, but he had not forgotten that he was here to get water. He just remembered the location of the prey along the way, and then waited until he found water before taking the prey back.
Rustling.
While walking among the bushes, Zuo Qiufeng's trouser legs were wet with crystal dewdrops due to the early morning, and they stuck tightly to his calves. It was a bit uncomfortable, and the humidity around him was heavier than he expected.
.
And the current location is halfway up the mountain. It stands to reason that the moisture will flow to the foot of the mountain. The mountainside location near the top of the mountain will not have such a large amount of moisture.
There is only one answer.
There must be some place with heavy water vapor nearby. As long as you can find the water source along the lush vegetation.
Just as Zuo Qiufeng had guessed, he pushed aside the grass and found a water source not far away.
It's not a big waterfall or a stream. Instead, it looks like a small round puddle, about two meters in diameter.
"Yes, it is underground spring water. There is no problem with the water quality. You can drink it directly!"
Zuo Qiufeng leaned down, held his hands together, and tried to drink a sip of spring water. It was sweet, delicious, and ice-cold. He nodded with satisfaction and began to clean the dusty earthen jars and porcelain bowls for fetching water.
.
Some people may have wondered whether this could be a spiritual spring rich in spiritual energy.
hehe.
He just wanted to say that this kind of lucky thing like picking up treasures on the way seems to be the treatment of the protagonist.
Zuo Qiufeng can say with confidence that this is just an ordinary pool of underground spring water, but the taste is better, and there is no feeling of being washed away by spiritual energy.
It's not that I don't have any other feelings. I drank a sip of cold water in the morning and my stomach hurt a little.
At this time, Zuo Qiufeng felt a little envious of cultivators. They could live without eating, drinking, or excreting food. It would be very difficult to find a roll of toilet paper if they had a bad stomach. It was scary to think about it.
Wow.
Along with the sound of water, the earthen jar was filled with water.
"...We have to go back quickly!"
Thinking of the painful look of Lu Waner who was still unconscious in the dark cave, Zuo Qiufeng murmured, hugged the clay pot and hurried back quickly. After all, he had an unshirkable responsibility to bear.
About ten minutes later, there was no need to worry about the poisonous snakes, Zuo Qiufeng rushed back quickly.
After entering the dark cave, close the door again.
"I'm back!"
After Zuo Qiufeng came back with the pottery pot in her arms, she was still a little uneasy but finally felt a little relieved when she saw Lu Wan'er still unconscious on the stone bed.
"It's so good not to wake up, tsk, you can't say that!"
After confirming that Lu Waner would not wake up suddenly and give him a "killing you" slap, he picked up a porcelain bowl and filled it with water and walked over, ready to feed Lu Waner who was obviously thirsty and struggling.
"Water...water...water..."
Sitting on the bedside, Zuo Qiufeng heard Lu Wan'er croaking softly, and her chapped lips proved that she was extremely thirsty. He gently lifted up the girl who had accidentally had a relationship with him and fed her.
water.
Wow...
The water from the porcelain bowl was poured into the girl's mouth, and the chapped lips were relieved. However, Lu Waner was unable to drink water normally because her body was too weak.
All the water stains dripped down his chin into a deep abyss and was swallowed up.
The coldness of the spring water made the girl shiver.
"Ah this..."
Zuo Qiufeng subconsciously averted his gaze, but soon realized that the relationship between the two seemed to be closer than it should be, so it didn't matter anyway, right?
"...In order to save people, there is nothing we can do!"
With this thought in mind, he fetched another bowl of water, glanced at the girl in his arms, Zuo Qiufeng drank the cool spring water in the bowl into his mouth, no longer hesitated, and slowly leaned down.
Chapter completed!
