章節 73: Chapter 73 No one has too much
Eighty miles is almost a day's journey for them. Obviously, staying in an inn is out of the question.
Everyone was worried and looked at Gu Zhang eagerly.
Gu Zhang had no choice but to say: "Why don't we stay here tonight? At least there is a half wall of loess to block the wind."
Boss Zhang looked at him, "What should we do if there is no water?"
Gu Zhang paused. He muttered, "This inn has been open for many years. There must be a well. Let's look for it and see if we can get some water."
Boss Zhang hurriedly went to find the well.
Everyone also scattered to look for the well. At this time, Zhou Tieniu, the eldest grandson of the aunt's family, shouted from behind the ruins, "The well is here!"
Everyone ran over.
There were some dead branches and leaves piled at the mouth of the well. Gu Zhang pulled it away and looked inside, but couldn't see anything clearly. He turned around and said, "Erlang, go get a bucket and a hemp rope."
Gu Erlang flew to the car and took the After getting the bucket and hemp rope, Gu Zhang tied the bucket and threw the bucket into the well. Uncle Ma shook his head beside him, and the sound was wrong, indicating that there was no water.
Sure enough, when the wooden barrel was pulled up, half of the barrel was covered with mud, and there was not a drop of water inside.
Mrs. Chen groaned and quickly pulled out a handful of dead grass to wipe away the mud.
Boss Zhang was very anxious, "What should we do? If we don't have water, we will die of thirst."
In addition to the Zhang family, every household still has some water. Gu Fei's family has the most water. Their family has more than ten large water bags and several A wooden barrel, every time I set out in the morning, I would fill it before leaving.
Gu Zhang looked at Uncle Ma, "How about I take a few people to look around and see if we can find some water."
Uncle Ma looked at the sky and shook his head, "We can't go, it will be dark soon. "It's easy to get lost in this wilderness. If you want to find water, you'll have to look for it tomorrow."
Gu Zhang had no choice but to nod, "Then we'll look for it tomorrow."
At this time, the women from each family randomly planted some broomsticks on the ground. The dead leaves were swept aside to create a clean open space.
Uncle Ma called to everyone, "Hard up the mules, and the laborers from each family will do their best to line up the carts in a circle along the wall."
"The rest of you will go and collect more firewood, and we will light a fire in the center."
Everyone . After listening to Uncle Ma's command, everyone quickly started to move.
Soon the car circled the city. Gu Sanlang went to the car to get fodder to feed the mules. His mules were big and ate a lot. Fortunately, there was still one day's worth of fodder in the car.
After feeding the fodder, Gu Sanlang took a water bag, poured a full water bag into the basin, and put it in front of the mule.
Boss Zhang looked at the water, licked his lips, and couldn't help but say, "Sanlang, do you have much water at home? Give me a sip, I'm dying of thirst."
Sanlang turned to look at him, "Zhang Uncle, tell me, who has enough water? I'm thirsty myself, but if I don't take care of this animal, it won't go out tomorrow."
"Forget it, I'll give you some.
" After getting a water bag and opening the lid, Boss Zhang quickly picked up a sea bowl and took it.
Gu Sanlang poured him a full bowl of water. Boss Zhang drank half the bowl in one gulp.
Gu Fei became worried when she looked at the mules. She thought there were few mules before, but now there are more mules. They eat more, drink more, and the food is not bad. Mules are not picky about their food, corn, beans, straw, and bran. , the leaves can be eaten, but water is difficult to get, which is a big trouble.
