The reason why Mu Jin wanted to walk around was that she could vaguely hear the sound of gurgling water. In this deep mountain, these plants grew so well, there must be a water source somewhere to nourish them.
Sure enough, behind a hidden vegetation, I found a small stream flowing down from the mountain.
After testing the water quality with the instrument in the space and confirming that there were no other impurities and it was drinkable, he asked Mu Bai to quickly notify the village chief and bring people to fetch water while he rested here.
Even if you have supernatural powers, you still have to rest.
Soon, the village chief and Mu Bai came back. At Mu Jin's suggestion, the village chief took a bite and his eyes lit up immediately. No matter what the road ahead would be like, at least they had a chance of survival for the time being.
The village chief immediately returned to the mushroom picking place and told everyone the good news. The villagers smiled happily when they heard it.
Immediately arrange for a few young men with fast feet to go back and inform others to bring up containers that can hold water, and those who can come up to help should come together
A quarter of an hour later, a group of people came up with all kinds of containers, including jars, bowls, buckets, and all the containers that could hold things.
The water flow was slow, so in order to save energy and not waste time, everyone adopted a relay mode at the suggestion of Mu Jin.
One person stood at a distance, and while waiting for water, they picked up all the edible things around them. After the water was collected, they passed it down the mountain one by one. Everyone agreed.
In order to prevent people from being lazy and not touching the food after picking enough for their own family, the village chief ordered everyone not to keep the food or water they picked for themselves. After they had picked everything, they would distribute it according to the number of people.
Mu Jin agreed with the village chief's decision. She had just realized this problem, but she had no right to say these words, and no one believed her.
I was thinking of finding a chance to talk to the village chief, but he brought it up first. He turned out to be the leader I valued.
Some people who wanted to be sneaky and cunning had to give up their thoughts after hearing this.
The village chief has the final say in this small village, so his words still have a certain authority.
Pai Mubai brought the news down the mountain, and Zhang immediately found a few honest women in the village to help her guard the food they brought down from the mountain, so that the people on the mountain could rest assured.
It was not until midnight that the water supply was fully replenished and the food was enough for one or two days. However, there was still a large area that had not been picked. Everyone reluctantly went down the mountain.
When we got to the foot of the mountain, after everyone had divided the food according to the number of people, they had the most satisfying meal in the past few days. The village chief also spoke out to support Mu Jin.
"Everyone, we can eat these and drink water today thanks to Mu Jin and Mu Bai. If they hadn't risked their lives going up the mountain to seek a way out, that would be our future."
He pointed to a small grave not far away. It was a new grave, probably where some of the fleeing groups that couldn't hold on went.
"I don't care what little thoughts you had before, from now on, put away your little thoughts"
"I don't ask you to be nice to them, but please remember everything they did for you today. Don't make things difficult for the children. Help them if you can. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Everyone responded in unison.
"How could that be, Village Chief? Mujin and her brother are such good kids."
Seeing that everyone's attitude was acceptable, the village chief said nothing more and sat down.
