Chapter 6 Unexpected Harvest
Su Tai looked well-behaved and honest. Shen Yi looked on dumbfounded, unable to connect the docile Su Tai in front of him with the tough woman yesterday.
Su Changxi waved his hand and continued to pull Shen Yi to find the mouth of the well.
Just as Su Tai was about to leave, she heard Su Changxi pointing to a mountain peak next door and saying, "That's also the territory of our Dongmen Village, but it's a little far away from the village. There used to be jackals on the mountain, and most of the villagers didn't go there. After the severe drought, some animals in the mountain They all ran over there, maybe they can find a suitable spot to dig a well there, but if we can’t find our village there, there’s really no hope.”
Today, he had chosen two places in the village that were most likely to produce water for the villagers to try to dig. However, after digging for an hour, the villagers were left disgraced, but there was no trace of moisture in the dug soil. He was really not confident.
Shen Yi stared at the mountain and muttered: "If there are jackals, there must be some hares and pheasants. The animals in the mountains are most sensitive to water sources. If we can find a place where small animals gather, we may be able to find a suitable place to dig a well."
"Yes, yes!" Su Changxi's eyes lit up a lot, and he hurriedly pulled Shen Yi over.
Su Tai thought for a while, then gritted her teeth and followed them. If she could find something valuable there, it would be a worthwhile trip.
Su Changxi was thinking about digging a well along the way, and he didn't expect a little tail to follow behind him.
Shen Yi knew it, but didn't say anything.
When the three of them were almost at their destination, Su Changxi was surprised to find that Su Tai had followed him. He was so anxious that he couldn't even speak, "You, you, you, why are you kids disobedient! There are wolves in the mountains that can eat people! Come back quickly. Go home!”
Su Tai looked innocent, "I don't know how to go."
Su Changxi: "Forget it! Just follow!"
He had no choice but to keep telling Su Tai to pay attention to safety.
After the three people entered the mountain, they found that it was indeed much cooler than the surrounding mountain, and there were many more green plants. Even the edible wild vegetables had been harvested, leaving only some shrubs.
After walking for a while and still not seeing any small animals, Su Tai couldn't help but ask: "Village chief, where is the wolf?"
Su Chang was filled with joy and turned to glare at her, "Unlucky kid, don't talk if you can't speak!"
Shen Yi wanted to laugh a little, but held it back.
At this time, his sharp eyes spotted a destroyed trap not far away. He ran over and looked through it, using a branch to pick out the contents. He said with a solemn expression, "It's really a wolf. It must have been dead for a while."
Su Tai came closer and found that the wolf had become a mummy. She didn't know how long it had been dead, but the fur was still good. She looked at Shen Yi with some excitement, "Brother Shen, can I play with this?"
Now that she was asking for help, her mouth immediately became sweet.
Shen Yi was stunned for a moment and nodded.
Su Changxi scolded him angrily, "What's wrong with playing? Play like a wolf and you'll die!"
He shook his head repeatedly, because he knew Su Tai's situation, so he didn't say anything harsh or stop her. He only looked at Shen Yi worriedly, "Do you want to continue walking?"
Although it was important to find a well-drilling site, he suddenly felt a little frightened now that he had encountered a dead wolf.
Shen Yi thought about it carefully for a while, then said in a deep voice: "If we keep walking for half an hour, we'll retreat if the situation remains the same."
It's not too early now, so we can't go out in the dark.
Su Changxi breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Tai put the dead wolf into the rattan basket and weighed it. She found that the thing was not very heavy. It must have lost all its moisture.
The three of them walked forward for less than half an hour, and finally found traces of the beast. If you look closely, it is still a big beast. Su Changxi's face turned pale and he quickly grabbed Shen Yi, "Forget it, let's go out."
Shen Yi was unsure, so he could only nod his head and immediately lead them back the way they came.
Su Tai was also frightened by the footprints and ran faster than a rabbit.
Su Changxi squinted his eyes and saw that Su Tai was still walking like flying while carrying something on her back, so she hurriedly followed her.
After coming out of the mountain, Shen Yi and Su Changxi wanted to see the villagers digging wells. Su Tai immediately ran away and ran all the way home. Seeing that there was no one at home, she breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door and entered the time and space transfer station to sell the dead wolf. To automated trading desks.
After a while, a detailed price tag was displayed on the screen. Although the wolf had been dead for several days, it did not rot due to the hot weather. Instead, it became a mummy. Its fur was intact, except for two holes and other parts. It can also be sold, and the price given by the automatic trading cabinet is 500 virtual coins.
Su Tai was ecstatic, clicked "Confirm Transaction", and the virtual currency balance became 502.
Five hundred virtual coins can be used to upgrade the water space-time, but if she chooses to upgrade, she will become a pauper again. Since the villagers are in a hurry for water, she has no time to continue saving money.
Now she can only bite the bullet and buy the right to use Koizumi Eyes.
When she came out of time and space, Mrs. Han happened to come back with her two sons.
Su Tai hurriedly got out a ton of water she bought to quench their thirst. The water in the kitchen house with sediment from the river mud was very fishy, so it was fine for washing. Drinking it would easily cause stomach upset.
When Mrs. Han saw the water Su Tai handed over, she didn't think much about it. She took two sips before her eyes widened in shock, "Why does this water look like spring water? It's so sweet!"
Su Zhan nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's very sweet. Sister, where did you get it? I haven't drunk such delicious water in a long time!"
Su Tai was inexplicably nervous and was thinking about how to fool her when Su Changxi's voice came from outside, "Brother and sister."
"Here we come!" Han trotted out.
Su Tai breathed a sigh of relief and followed out, finding that Shen Yi was also there.
Su Changxi asked: "How long will it take Chunlin to come back?"
Han shook his head and said, "Village chief, we have to walk for a whole day to get to the county seat, one round trip. I don't think we'll get home until tomorrow evening. What's wrong?"
Su Changxi said with some embarrassment: "It's not like Shen Yi came to our village to help. I have to trouble him all day tomorrow. I thought Chunlin was going out. Maybe your family can free up an empty room, so I came to ask."
"Hey! What a big deal, you can live in our house!" Han entered the house to clean up enthusiastically, and asked Su Tai to help.
Shen Yi was not idle when he entered the yard. When he saw that the firewood was half chopped, he immediately went over to work.
Mr. Han in the room heard the commotion, took a sneak peek, and praised in a low voice: "Shen Yi is still diligent, what a pity."
"Mom, what are you regretting?" Su Tai was puzzled.
Mrs. Han sighed, "It's not your marriage! Back then, Shen Yi's father, Shen Ping, rescued your father and the four of them. Shen Ping was a man who crossed the river and often helped the government officials to recover corpses. Everyone thought it was unlucky and didn't like him. As soon as he died, the life of the orphans and widowers would be difficult.
At that time, everyone was poor and didn't know how to repay this life-saving grace. They agreed that the girl would be married to Shen Yi if her husband was born. This also solved Shen Yi's mother's big worry. The one from the Mo family The baby girl was born half a year earlier than you, otherwise you would have been engaged to Shen Yi. This Shen Yi is so good. He looks much better than that bastard Xiong Kai. It's a pity that our two families are not destined to be together. "
Su Tai blinked, thinking of what Shen Yi said to her, she blurted out, "Mom, Shen Yi was canceled by the Mo family."
