Chapter 297: Can only solve the urgent need
Chapter 297 can only solve the urgent need
What Mengshan said is true or false, you can tell at a glance.
Bai Wutong looked into the well, and sure enough, the water volume was very low.
Generally speaking, after the well is filled with water, groundwater will emerge from the ground.
However, with such a low amount of water, it is clear that there are not many reserves of groundwater.
There are so many people in their team. After the water was drawn, it was indeed as Mengshan said, even if the water was left, it would not be enough to support the people of their tribe to live here.
These are the borderlands between deserts and grasslands, and conflicts between the Central Plains and the local people are very easy to occur. If water is forcibly taken and no way of life is left for them, the people of southern Xinjiang may even be more dissatisfied with the management of the Lingguo court.
You Huaijie seemed to be thinking about what to do, but his eyes turned to Bai Wutong from time to time, waiting for her to make a decision.
Bai Wutong thought for a while, then looked at Mengshan, who was terrified by Chu Tianbao, "Is there any other place to get water?"
Mengshan Road: "Three days ahead on horseback, there is a dark river, you can go there to get water!"
Bai Wutong was startled, "Then why don't you go there to fetch water?"
Mengshan said frankly: "We have well water, and that's enough to drink, but with so many of you, even if you drain the well water, it's not enough!"
"Then why don't you move there?" Bai Wutong wondered.
Mengshan said: "We do think, but the dark river will only have water in spring, and it will disappear in summer. If we move there, we might as well stay here!" He also emphasized, "As long as no one fights with us for water, we will get on."
What he said did not seem to be false, Bai Wutong gave Chu Tianbao a wink, and Chu Tianbao let Mengshan go.
Chu Tianbao let go, Mengshan coughed a few times, and he honestly stepped aside to see what Bai Wutong and the others planned.
Bai Wutong took inventory of their existing water, and it was not enough to last for three days, and it was barely enough for one day.
But the current situation is that even if all the water in this well is drained, it will not be able to satisfy everyone's current water consumption.
White Indus quietly filling the well with tap water is sure to arouse suspicion.
She once watched a documentary about desert survival. The male protagonist had nothing to survive in the desert for a month, and spent several ways to get water.
Bai Wutong forgot how to operate it. He quickly looked up the survival guide on the computer in the RV space and saw a suitable way to get water.
Although you can’t use a lot of water, it is enough to solve the urgent need.
Bai Wutong gave a look, and You Huaijie said, "Go back first."
Seeing that You Huaijie took so many people back, Mengshan's eyes widened, feeling a little incredible.
Do people in the Central Plains speak so rationally?
With their manpower, they could kill them directly and take all the well water for himself. If Mengshan himself was to be replaced, he would definitely do it.
The Central Plains people did not do this, and for a while, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
Not only him, but the rest of the Southern Border and Xu Ya people suddenly had a lot less resistance to these foreign Central Plains people.
Suddenly, a handsome man with a high nose bridge and golden eyes suddenly appeared in the crowd. His eyes were gloomy and he said to Mengshan: "How can people from the Central Plains go to the southern border without water? They must be trying to use conspiracy and tricks to get rid of us at the least price. ."
The tall and slender beauty carved in the same mold next to him also said, "Yes! People from the Central Plains are best at intrigues and tricks. We must not be deceived by their hypocritical appearance."
"The people of the Central Plains have killed so many of our clansmen, how can they be soft-hearted!"
Hearing what their brothers and sisters said, Mengshan frowned immediately, "You are right! They don't have water, so many people will definitely not be able to reach the dark river!" Then he said worriedly about his tribe: "Don't let your guard down, today Guard the well water at night!"
Feng Xun and Feng Yue glanced at each other, Feng Yue's eyes became cold, and compared to a beheading action, "As the people from the Central Plains said, it is better to strike first than to be slaughtered by others!"
They failed to assassinate You Huaijie twice. They disguised themselves as ordinary Southern Border tribes, just to kill them all here.
Mengshan has long seen that Feng Xunfengyue is not an ordinary southern Xinjiang citizen, but he has no intention of getting involved in these disputes, as long as the people in the Central Plains do not fetch well water, they will not sacrifice their people to cause conflicts.
Mengshan said directly: "We are too few to beat others!"
Feng Xun and Feng Yue's faces turned green, and they couldn't beat them, so they wanted to provoke Meng Shan to be the first bird, and take advantage of the chaos to gain the benefits of the fisherman.
Fengyue was not reconciled and tried to persuade, "The people in the Central Plains are very weak. Our tribe and your tribe will go together while it is dark, and we will definitely kill them all!"
Mengshan is not stupid at all, "Take it down, the people are weak, so many officers and soldiers can be vegetarians? Just that one person can kill me, I don't want to die in vain with my clan."
What if the southern border was ruled by Ling Guo, anyway, if they don't control them, they will be fine.
Feng Xun and Feng Yue's expressions changed and they had to admit that Chu Tianbao was indeed very powerful.
In addition, those secret guards hiding beside Chu Tianbao are also first-class masters.
But the brothers and sisters Feng Xun Fengyue refused to give up. They intuited that Chu Tianbao was a more important person than You Huaijie, or that it was You Huaijie himself, disguised as ordinary people, just to avoid being discovered by them.
They also planned to capture Chu Tianbao alive and make him an undercover agent to serve their Sirius Army!
If it can't be used for it, this person will kill him!
Feng Xun Fengyue discussed it, Feng Yue said: "Brother, we can't kill everyone, we can lead them out."
Feng Xun nodded in agreement.
When the two brothers and sisters were discussing how to lead Chu Tianbao out, Cui Shize saw that Bai Wutong and the others had not brought water when they came back, so he asked worriedly, "How?"
Bai Wutong said: "The well water is not enough for so many of us to drink, and the locals won't let us take it. Forcibly taking water will definitely lead to conflict."
Cui Shize frowned, not knowing what to say for a while.
After all, their lives are lives, and other people's lives are also lives.
Forcibly fetching water is indeed inauthentic, but without water, they can't go on any longer.
For a while, everyone was silent.
Lin Yue muttered, "If we knew earlier, we would have picked more cacti." Although it was unpalatable, it contained a lot of water.
Bai Wutong smiled, "There are so many of us, it's not enough to pick all the cacti." After thinking about it, his eyes suddenly lit up and said: "However, this is also an idea. If we ask the locals for some well water, and we make our own water collectors at night, we should be able to continue to get water from the dark river.”
Bai Wutong said five words about the self-made water collector, Cui Shize's eyes suddenly glowed, "Can the water collector get water in the desert?"
Bai Wutong nodded, "Yes, but there is not a lot of water, it can only solve the urgent need."
