Bab 87: Searching for Water Source

There were six villages around the Chu Village. On this day, the village chiefs of these six villages came to the house of the Chu Village chief. Their faces were covered in dust and they had worried expressions.

Village Chief Chu received them with hospitality and asked them to sit in the central room. "What brought you here?"

The village chief of the Zhang Village said bitterly, "Only your village has enough water in this area. Who else can we look for other than you?"

Village Chief Chu immediately understood what he meant. It had not rained for more than two months, and the sun was scorching the ground every day. Everyone was running out of water. "Are you planning to fetch water from the Chu Village?"

The village chief of the Xu Village waved his hand and said, "No, I heard that someone in your village can find water sources. I wonder if you can get her to help? Of course, we will pay."
