"There's someone over there, you can go check it out..."
Zhang Fan pointed in a direction, indicating that there were people over there. However, the flying camel snorted coldly, looking down on this delicate young master who was so unwilling to be blown by the wind and sand.
What does this young master know?
Such a village has been deserted for a long time, how could there still be people living in it?
Fei Luotuo didn't believe it, but Hua Yueying did. She rushed over and quickly found two dark and skinny men like bamboo poles. One of them was the grandfather and the other was the grandson.
It was hard to tell the grandfather's age. He looked very old and kept coughing, as if he was going to die of coughing at any moment. It was probably because of this reason that the grandfather could not leave the villa.
The other one was the grandson, who looked thin and dark, with a dirty face and body. Only his eyes were still lively. He was surprised when he saw Hua Yueying, but he protected his grandfather.
“Ahhh…”
He kept gesturing, indicating that he did not want to hurt his grandfather. The flying camel chuckled, and it turned out that he was a mute!
"Is there any water here? Take us to find water and food. We need to eat..."
The flying camel raised the whip and made a loud cracking sound. He kept shouting at the two men to find them food and water, but Hua Yueying glared at him.
"You are useless! Just wait, I will go get some food..."
No matter how difficult the situation was, Hua Yueying could not stop it. Not long after, she actually brought back a wild sheep that weighed several dozen kilograms. That was not all. She also had water in her hands, and the bucket was full of clean water!
The flying camel's eyes were wide open, and it looked at Huayueying as if it were seeing a ghost.
The young man and the grandfather were also stunned. Suddenly, the grandfather pushed the young man and knelt down in front of Hua Yueying.
"Girl, I don't know how you found the water source. Our village has been around for hundreds of years, but in the past ten years, we haven't been able to find a new water source. I grew up in this village, and I don't want to leave here, but if I don't leave, there will be no water, and I will die. Please, please give us some guidance and give me some water..."
The old man was already trembling, and after he said these words, he coughed even more violently.
But his eyes were fixed on Hua Yueying's water, and his throat kept gurgling, showing his extreme desire for water.
"Ah, there is actually very little water here. I can get some water, but I'm telling you this method. You can't get any water either. But if you want to survive, you can follow us or stay in this village. It will rain soon..."
Hua Yueying could see that there was an extreme shortage of water here, and the people here's desire for water was beyond his imagination.
And the closer you get to the Flaming Mountain, the more so.
She even had a feeling that her master's 800-mile Flaming Mountain, cough cough cough, might be an uninhabited area and no one could live there because it was too hot and there was a lack of water!
Without water, nothing can grow and people cannot survive.
"Will it rain? It hasn't rained here for a year or two. I heard that this place was abandoned by the princess. Even the princess doesn't want us anymore..."
The old man's eyes were full of despair. Raining?
It hasn't rained here for many, many years, and the weather is getting hotter and hotter. He almost forgot what rain looks like.
"Princess? Is it Princess Iron Fan? She is about to give birth and has no time to come here. But it doesn't matter. My master will ensure good weather and good harvests here..."
This place is close to the Flaming Mountain. In the past, Princess Iron Fan could create wind and rain to extinguish the molten lava of the Flaming Mountain, so there are still people living and working there, and there are also villages here that are hundreds of years old.
But Princess Iron Fan hasn't been here for a long time, and there is no water here. The environment over at Flaming Mountain is naturally even worse.
I guess it's good as long as people are still alive even if there's no grass growing.
"Your master? That spoiled young master? If he had this ability, not to mention asking me to drive the carriage for you, I could make all the horse thieves here respect you as their master..."
The flying camel showed a sarcastic expression. How could the young master, who couldn't even blow away the wind and sand, ensure good weather and good harvests here?
This is just coaxing a child without thinking.
"Pah, pah, pah, you are just a horse thief. I despise you as my slave, and you still want to be my master's slave. You are dreaming. Now, can you cook some food? Make some barbecue for my master..."
Hua Yueying pouted a few times. This Flying Camel was really overconfident. He even wanted to be a slave to his master?
What wishful thinking.
Her last words were addressed to the dark and thin young man, who just nodded, indicating that he knew everything and would quickly light the fire to cook and slaughter the sheep.
Fortunately, there was water. Although Fei Luotuo was ridiculed by Hua Yueying, he was still a good hand at killing and skinning sheep. It was just that the dark and thin young man was not very good at cooking.
The roasted meat was not fragrant and was black in color, even Hua Yueying disliked it.
"That's too bad. It would be better if Xu Zijun was here..."
In the end, Hua Yueying did not eat the mutton that man prepared, but carefully roasted the lamb leg and gave it to Zhang Fan to enjoy. However, her cooking skills were not very good. Zhang Fan took a bite and shook his head, indicating that he should give it to Hua Yueying.
"I don't need to eat. I'll give it all to you, Master. I'll make you a cup of tea. Next time, I'll remember to bring all your usual things. If not, ask the Seventh Sister or Xu Zijun to come along..."
Only then did Hua Yueying realize that this business trip was too tiring for her master.
In the future, bring more people to serve him.
Hua Yueying was making tea for Zhang Fan, while the remaining people had incredible expressions on their faces. This noble young master was so spoiled that he couldn't even swallow such a delicious leg of lamb.
How can this survive here?
Hua Yueying's tea was ready. Zhang Fan took a sip and frowned. The water quality here was not good, and the tea brewed from it was extremely bitter and difficult to drink.
"Did you get the groundwater here? Why is it so unpalatable?"
"Well, there is no water here, let alone snow mountain water and mountain spring water. I spent a lot of effort to get groundwater, but the quality of the groundwater is not good. If we don't find a solution, this place will probably turn into a desert in one or two years..."
Hua Yueying also sighed.
The ecology here has deteriorated and there is no water, so it is really difficult for people to survive.
Even if we have the palm-leaf fan and can extinguish the Flaming Mountain, we will have to find another way to get enough rain. Moreover, the environment here is so deteriorating and there is no abundant water source. This 800-mile Flaming Mountain will be a huge pit if given to the Pawn Shop of Heaven and Earth!
"Master, we have suffered a great loss in this damn place..."
The more Hua Yueying thought about it, the angrier she became. She felt it was totally unprofitable.
