C829 Water Source
A dilapidated city quietly stood in the endless yellow sand.
Under the dilapidated city wall, a group of people were quickly advancing forward.
There was a group of young men in particular jumping around the adults with shovels and other tools in their hands.
"Ga, you should control them. Be careful of Mr. Zhou's displeasure!" Liu Qing turned around and whispered.
Before he could even open his mouth, Zhou Yi said: "No worries!"
Liu Qing smiled. The other kids were even more happy. Two of them were a bit braver. They came to Zhou Yi and looked up at him, "Uncle, can you really help us find a water source?"
"It should be!" Zhou Yi did not dare to say too much.
What if? This world had never been afraid of ten thousand times, just in case.
"Hmm, if you just put it that way, we already have a lot of hope!" A younger teenager imitated the adult and spoke with a serious tone.
When everyone heard this, they burst out into laughter.
Zhou Yi led the group and soon arrived at the location where the water source was detected.
"It's here?" Zhou Yi pointed at the dilapidated building.
Unexpectedly, Liu Qing looked at this location and said in surprise: "Sir, you don't know, this was indeed a well before, but it has been dry for a hundred years."
The meaning behind his words was that there was no water here at all.
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Have you guys tried this place since then?"
Hearing this, Liu Qing looked embarrassed: "I don't have that!"
When the sandstorm had arrived, the entire city had been thrown into chaos. Afterwards, the water supply within the city had been quickly reduced and everyone's gazes had been shifted to the outside of the city.
All the wells in the city had already been forgotten by others. How could they still think of digging the wells from before? They all subconsciously went to other places to search.
After searching for so many years, they still couldn't find anything.
The water that they had previously stored was about to run out. It could be said that right now was an important moment for them in life or death.
"Fine, since there aren't any, why don't we give it a try and see if my probing is accurate or not!" Zhou Yi curled his lips and signaled Wang Chuan to take action.
Wang Chuan nodded. Then, he picked up the shovel and shoveled heavily into a certain spot.
Wang Chuan added a lot of energy and energy into the punch, so this time, there was a pit of about one meter deep.
However, it was still yellow sand under one meter, so there was no moisture in it at all.
Liu Qing and Lau Ming did not look too good. Although they did not say anything, their intentions were clear.
Ga Zi, who was a few years younger, did not hide and said directly, "Sir, you can't do that. It's still yellow sand under one meter and yellow sand below it. There won't be any water. You have to …"
"Caw!" Liu Qing immediately stopped her and said with an embarrassed smile, "A child doesn't know how to talk."
Zhou Yi raised his hand and smiled, "Don't be in such a rush. Sometimes your eyes will lie!"
"Right, right, eyes will lie. Sometimes, I can see that it's wet, but there's nothing even if we dig it down!" A small youth spoke up.
Zhou Yi rubbed the top of the teenager's head and said with a smile, "That's right!"
With that, Zhou Yi took the shovel from the teenager and said to Wang Chuan, "Begin!"
The two of them poured all the energy in their hands into the shovel, then they shoveled down at the huge hole again.
The yellow sand flew everywhere, and for a moment, everyone could no longer see anything.
Moments later, all the yellow sand had settled down and everyone was gathered in the pit. The pit was now four to five meters deep, but there was still yellow sand within. There was no hint of wetness at all.
"Uncle, I think we really have no chance this time!" The little boy from before spoke with some disappointment.
According to their experience, there wasn't even the slightest hint of moisture in the water, which proved that there wasn't any water source down there. Even if they continued digging, they wouldn't find any more.
Liu Qing and Lau Ming were still considering if they should say something, but after opening their mouths, they were still unable to utter a single word.
Zhou Yi shook his head: "Looks like I really can't use any strength anymore!"
However, Zhou Yi also felt strange at the same time. This city wasn't like this at first, even if there was yellow sand, two to three meters might be the limit.
Just when Zhou Yi wanted to attack again, he found that there seemed to be something at the edge of the pit he dug.
Zhou Yi turned around and jumped in.
"Mister …" Wang Chuan shouted anxiously. It seemed like he wanted to jump down with Ye Zichen.
"Don't move, it's fine!" Zhou Yi waved without raising his head.
His gaze landed on that strange spot, where the yellow sand was darker than the other places.
From afar, it looked like it was only a few centimeters wide and narrow, just like a line.
He stretched out his hand and scanned the surroundings a few more times, discovering that there was such a line.
Zhou Yi raised his hand and touched it gently, but it seemed to be hidden in the yellow sand, falling down along with the yellow sand.
Although he didn't see the real face, Zhou Yi understood something.
Then Zhou Yi jumped out of the pit, turned around and said to the others, "You guys stay back!"
Everyone obeyed and leaned back.
Zhou Yi cast his Umbra, and in an instant, a meter-high black fire appeared on its body.
"Go!"
Zhou Yi's thin lips slightly opened as he shouted towards the Umbra.
As his voice faded, the shadow plunged into the yellow sand under the horrified gaze of the crowd.
When the yellow sand was roasted by the black flames, a fishy stench was actually emitted. Everyone present covered their mouths.
"This is too smelly!" The ten or so children couldn't help but speak up. Clutching their noses, they ran for nearly a hundred meters.
At this moment, the shadow had also disappeared into the yellow sand.
"Mr. Zhou, your sword..." Liu Qing could not help but speak, because he had never seen such a weapon before. Especially the black flames, the black flames were actually the same as the flames spat by the City Protecting Beast.
"Shh!" Zhou Yi placed his slender fingers on his lips, squinted his eyes and said softly, "Listen …"
What was that sound? "
When everyone heard this, they were all silenced. The little child who was just thinking about it, also quieted down in an instant.2
They seemed to hear a familiar sound, an exciting sound.
"I-I heard it!" A youth jumped up excitedly on the spot.
A few of them even directly rushed in front of Zhou Yi and pulled on Zhou Yi's clothes while cheering non-stop: "Water, water, it's really water! We heard the sound of water."
"Yeah, it's water!" Zhou Yi smiled. Then, he stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.
A streak of black fire shot out from the yellow sand, followed closely by a transparent stream of clear water …
