Chapter 234 Surprise



The 800-li area of ​​Flaming Mountain was pawned to the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth, and the Pawnshop of Heaven and Earth had to ensure good weather and good harvests here.

Originally Hua Yueying thought that if she could put out the fire on the Flaming Mountain with a palm-leaf fan and then have an occasional rain, the basic problem would be solved. Who would have thought that it would be so dry here.

Even the groundwater is almost gone.

To ensure good weather and good harvests here, how much would it cost to change the environment of this 800-mile land?

This wave seems to be a loss.

"It's okay, take your time. There are a lot of people living here, and the living environment is good. Eight hundred miles can accommodate a lot of people..."

Zhang Fan didn't care. Because it was dry here, it was on the verge of desertification and was almost turning into a desert. However, if he really wanted to solve the problem, there were so many places with water in the Three Realms. He could just let the Golden Dragon go to the East China Sea!

It's so easy!

As the two were talking, they saw the flying camel and the young man wolfing down the food, even fighting over it. The flying camel, relying on its sturdy body, grabbed the fattest leg of lamb.

The plan is to save what I can’t finish and eat it slowly. Food and water are the most precious things here.

The young man remained silent but refused to let go. He wanted to keep the lamb leg for the grandfather, and it was more than half a sheep. If he handled it well, it could keep them alive for half a month.

This mutton is life-saving.

So the young man pulled out the dagger and refused to give in to Fei Luotuo. Fei Luotuo was so angry that he wanted to slap him, but a whip flew out and entangled his hand.

It turned out that it was Hua Yueying who took action.

The young man took the opportunity to grab the mutton and gave it all to grandpa.

When Zhang Fan saw this scene, he suddenly stood up, walked to her grandfather and squatted down.

"If you want your grandfather to survive, you shouldn't let him take so much mutton. Do you understand the principle that an innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure? Besides, you are a girl, and it is not safe here. There are a large number of bandits behind us, all of whom are his subordinates. I think you should come with us when the time comes. I guarantee that you will not starve to death, and you will also have a home..."

Zhang Fan's words made Hua Yueying and Fei Luotuo stunned for a moment, especially Fei Luotuo, who couldn't help but look at the young man twice.

Soon, he also discovered the clues.

Because the light was too dim, he had not noticed the girl. She had no Adam's apple, so she was indeed a girl.

"Master, I'm old and can't walk anymore. I'm a burden. I'm leaving my granddaughter to you. Please give her a chance to live!"

The old man coughed and gargled, his eyes determined. This man and woman were so clean, and they could find water here. He could survive by following such people.

But he is old and can no longer walk, so keeping him would be a burden.

"Grandpa, if you don't leave, I won't leave either. If you want to die, I'll die with you!"

The girl suddenly spoke in a clear voice. Hua Yueying suddenly realized that it was no wonder that the girl had been pretending to be mute. Although her appearance could deceive others, she could no longer hide the truth as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Okay, okay, wash yourself with water and make sure you are clean. Come with us to the Flaming Mountain tomorrow!"

Zhang Fan yelled, thinking they were too noisy.

As soon as he said this, the grandfather and grandson looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

However, no one was willing to use the water that Zhang Fan asked them to wash with. Instead, they boiled the water and put it into several water bags. This way, even if they couldn't find a water source for a while, they wouldn't have to worry about dying of thirst.

Hua Yueying saw this scene and didn't say anything. She just picked up the two buckets and left. When she came back, the buckets were full of water.

Everyone was stunned except Zhang Fan.

Including the horse thieves hiding in the dark, they had been following the carriage and saw Hua Yueying drawing water from the well in secret. However, when they went to the well to draw water, they found that it had already dried up.

Not a drop of water.

However, they clearly saw Hua Yueying could draw water from the well, and had several buckets of water. This, this was too magical.

When Fei Luotuo used the excuse of going to urinate and heard his subordinates report the matter, he was completely stunned.

"Are you sure that the girl got the water from the well?"

"Yes, that's right. The five of us saw it with all ten eyes. It was the well at the entrance of the village, the one that had dried up. We even went down to check. It was cracked inside. There was no water. There was really no water!"

Those horse thieves were very excited, thinking they had discovered a big secret of Hua Yueying.

They can get water anywhere.

It's simply a miracle.

"You guys follow behind, don't act rashly, these two are not simple people, here, hide this little bit of water, keep it for your life!"

Fei Luotuo stuffed two full water bags into his men's hands. The closer they were to the Flaming Mountain, the more precious the water became. This water could save lives.

It simply cannot be wasted.

Zhang Fan slept uneasily that night. He even got up once and released the golden dragon in his seal, asking it to go to the East China Sea in the human world and fetch more water from there!

Zhang Fan did not have the same complaints as Hua Yueying. Since the 800-mile Flaming Mountain had become his, he wanted to change it into the Flower-Fruit Mountain, a paradise on earth.

Let everyone living here live and work in peace and contentment.

The next morning, Fei Luotuo got up obediently to feed the camels and prepare to continue his journey. In his words, it would be too hot at noon if he traveled in the morning and evening, so he had to rest, otherwise he would faint from the sun.

"How far is this from the Flaming Mountain?"

Hua Yueying was a little impatient. Why hadn’t they reached the Flaming Mountain yet?

"It's almost there, it's almost there, we'll be there in five or six days, it's less than seven or eight hundred miles away..."

It turned out that this was still within the 800-mile range of the Flaming Mountain, but the camels walked very slowly, and it would take six or seven days to cover the 800 miles, and at most only about a hundred miles a day.

Calculated in this way, the area of ​​800 miles is actually quite large.

The girl and the old man got on the camels, and Zhang Fan still sat in the carriage. Strangely enough, although they went slowly along the way, they did not encounter any robbers.

But there were more and more bandits following behind.

From the first day on, Hua Yueying would bring back several buckets of water every day, and even took care of Zhang Fan's bathing and washing clothes. That scene made the horse thieves hiding in the dark go crazy.

That is water, extremely precious water!

But it was used by the young nobleman to take a bath. You have to know that some of them only take three baths in their entire life.

Once at birth, once at marriage, and once at death.

But Zhang Fan was different. He actually took a bath every night. It was so extravagant that those hiding in the dark felt that this young master was beyond description.
