Chapter 94: A Concealed Smile
Zhao Jinchen smiled: "I really don't know. It's been hundreds of years, so I guess there should have been one."
The mouth of this ancient well is made of stone, and there is some moss on the edge of the well. It is very slippery and it is easy to fall into the well if you are not careful.
After hearing what Zhao Jinchen said, Zhou Zixu hurriedly took two steps back. When he looked at the well water that Zhao Jinchen had shaken up, his eyes looked a little strange, full of disgust.
"Besides this well water, what other water do you have to drink?"
Zhao Jinchen glanced at him sideways and knew that this young master's mysophobia had struck again.
"Then there is the spring water in the mountains. There is a small river over there in the village, but the women in the village like to wash clothes by the river. But you don't have to worry, it is running water."
His honest answer and detailed explanation made Zhou Zixu feel even more uncomfortable.
Washing clothes in the river? What about cleaning the toilet?
"Forget it, I'll go home and take the persimmons back to freeze."
Zhou Zixu couldn't remain calm when he thought about the fact that the water he had to drink was either from the well or the river.
"You have this problem. Have you forgotten the time when we were training in the wild and ate snow when we were extremely thirsty? Besides, I have never heard of anyone drowning in this well since I was a child. Don't be afraid."
Zhao Jinchen smiled, patted his shoulder and said something comforting.
Hearing his words, Zhou Zixu let out a breath and thought that this was pretty good.
Looking at the well water that Zhao Jinchen brought up, it looked cool. He was thirsty, so he leaned over the bucket and drank it. The cold well water drove away the heat in his body, and he wiped his mouth with satisfaction.
It’s really sweet. No wonder grandpa is so obsessed with the well water and spring water in the mountains. It’s delicious.
Zhao Jinchen saw him close his eyes contentedly, as if savoring something, so he smiled and said another sentence.
"Even if someone drowned, the body would have been fished out long ago. How could it be left in the well water?"
After hearing this, Zhou Zixu lay down on the edge of the well and started to scratch his throat, tears streaming down his face. He glared at Zhao Jinchen with resentment. He definitely did it on purpose.
"Let's go!"
Zhao Jinchen grabbed him from the ground with his big hands and told him not to pollute the well water.
"Jin Chen, you are so awesome, are you deliberately making trouble for me?"
Zhou Zixu wiped his tears and angrily accused Zhao Jinchen.
"I'm telling the truth."
Zhao Jinchen glanced at him sideways, his expression normal, and walked home with the bucket in his hand with a sullen look on his face.
When he walked a few steps away, the corner of his mouth slightly raised. This kid's bad habits haven't been changed yet, and his mysophobia seems to have become even worse?
"Then can't you just say it all at once? Why do you have to wait until I finish drinking the water?"
Zhou Zixu followed behind him, muttering to himself, saying that they hadn't seen each other for so long, and he had the heart to treat him like this.
"Let's go! My mom will definitely kill a chicken for you! Stewed wild mushrooms are especially delicious."
Zhao Jinchen looked back with a smile, in a very good mood.
"You were just teasing me, weren't you?"
Zhou Zixu sensed it, and pointed at Zhao Jinchen with narrowed eyes, as if he was looking for a fight.
"Really not. You were the one who asked the question, so I just answered honestly."
Zhao Jinchen had already walked to the door of his house. When he heard Zhou Zixu's words, he turned around and smiled at him.
"Your smile is fake, it must be intentional."
Zhou Zixu followed closely and punched him on the shoulder with his fist full of wind.
This kid is very evil! As the saying goes, this guy is evil, usually he doesn't make any noise, and every time he gets punished, he is the one who gets punished.
The two comrades were talking and laughing here, as if they had returned to the happiness they had when they were in the same army.
Suddenly, a broken shout attracted the attention of the two men. They saw a man stumbling over and still shouting.
"Help! Someone is killing me."
