Chapter 14 There is Water in the Cave



In less than an hour, Liu Yongquan brought his men up.

"Village head, the villagers said that only three buckets of water were produced from the well this morning, and many villagers have no water at home today."

"It's okay. As long as the hole is unblocked, no one will die if they don't drink water for a day."

"It's also thanks to Hu Lan that I came here to take a look, otherwise it would be troublesome."

The villager who came up behind said, "Village head, a lot of people left the village this morning. Do you want someone to call them back?"

Zhao came over and said, "No need. We met some people this morning. It's useless to persuade them. If they want to leave, then let them go."

Without saying anything more, they began to take turns widening the entrance of the cave.

The soil at the bottom of the cave was relatively wet, so it was easy to dig. If I encountered any rocks, I would knock them off with a chisel.

The hole doesn't need to be too big, as long as an adult can fit in it.

It’s just that the space is small and it’s not very convenient to exert force.

Several people took turns working on it, and by noon when people came down the mountain to deliver lunch, the entrance to the cave had been dug more than ten feet deep.

It doesn’t matter if there are many people. One person digs the soil in front, and the people behind move the soil out of the hole.

Several people work together and take turns when they get tired.

There were enough people here, so they didn't let Zhang Hulan and Zhang Xiaojun work, but they were not idle either. They were responsible for holding torches.

They did not stop at night and kept digging until midnight, and finally the front entrance was dug through.

Just as Zhang Xiaojun said, it was very spacious inside and you could stand up and walk around.

Everyone went into the cave, and indeed they could hear the sound of flowing water.

Zhang Xiaojun reminded: "Everyone, be careful, the ground is very slippery."
