Chapter 82 Uncle

"It's nothing more than a little effort." Hearing what she said, Fu Min responded with some embarrassment.

"General Fu, send Miss Cheng back, and continue to search for water tomorrow." Nan Yi ordered wearily.

"Yes! General." Fu Min and Cheng Qianwei went out, and he sent them back to the county magistrate's mansion. The atmosphere on the way was very quiet.

When they arrived, the county magistrate and his wife were eating in the house, Cheng Qianwei knelt down on the ground directly, Fu Min subconsciously wanted to hold her hand, and stopped in mid-air.

"Uncle Cheng..."

"Qianwei? You've grown up so much. Uncle hasn't visited your father for many years. How is he?" The county magistrate quickly got up and helped Cheng Qianwei up.

"My father has passed away... Before he left, he asked me to join you." The more Cheng Qianwei said, the more uncomfortable she was, and the tears she shed really made people feel distressed.

The county magistrate's wife's complexion changed suddenly, and she put the chopsticks on the table in displeasure. The smile on the county magistrate's face froze, looking embarrassed.

"Uncle..." Cheng Qianwei murmured, crying more and more. She could tell that her aunt didn't like her, and now that she had nowhere to go, could it be that she really wanted to live on the street?

"You look poor, don't dirty the county magistrate's mansion." The county magistrate's wife said bitterly, glared at the county magistrate, and left.

"Qianwei, don't take it to heart. Your aunt is indeed too disrespectful. Now that she is like this, uncle doesn't dare to make decisions..."

Hearing what he said, Cheng Qianwei quickly knelt on the ground and begged him humbly, her dignity was also shattered.

"Qianwei, why do you need to do this?" The county magistrate sighed and said, very embarrassed.

"Follow me." Fu Min couldn't stand it any longer, and said, now that she is lonely and helpless, she feels pity in her heart, if she is not kept here, there is naturally a place to keep her.

You can't let her live on the street, can you?

Cheng Qianwei was startled, and stared blankly into Fu Min's eyes, only to see him pulling herself up and walking outside, the county magistrate looked at her, shook her head, never hated herself for being afraid of his wife at this moment.

"Miss Cheng, don't worry, the general is kind-hearted and will definitely keep you." Fu Min said firmly, comforting Cheng Qianwei.

Cheng Qianwei lowered her eyes and watched him pull her wrist and strode forward. Once again, he saved herself. The voice of following me has been echoing in her mind, lingering.

In an instant, my heart seemed to move.

Fu Min led Cheng Qianwei back, without saying a word, he directly dragged her to kneel in front of Nan Yi, and said slowly:

"General, the county magistrate does not leave Miss Cheng. As a woman, she is lonely and has been robbed by bandits. Since we rescued her, we can't just sit idly by?"

"Stop kneeling, get up and clean up a room for Miss Cheng." Nan Yi heard the meaning of Fu Min's words, since he wanted to stay, then he followed his wishes.

"Yes! General." Fu Min said happily, and when he got up, he also gave Cheng Qianwei a hand.

"Your Highness, where did the water we drink come from? My fellow general searched for a day, but found nothing." Nan Yi asked looking at the clear water in the cup.

"Although there is little water dripping from the mountain wall, it can barely take care of one's life."

"Take me to take a look tomorrow." Nan Yi didn't want to go to the distance to find water. The weather was hot and there was no water to drink. If he couldn't persist for a few days, he would become dehydrated. If he developed a high fever, his life would inevitably be in danger.

Feng Yi Ci agreed, and on the second day, he took her there, and it was still the same as yesterday, with many people relying on water droplets to continue their lives.

Nan Yi looked around, the mountain wall was very high, even if there was a water source, it would be difficult for ordinary people to go up, Fu Min waited and watched from below, and shouted:
"General, why don't you go up and take a look?"

"Okay!" After Nan Yi responded, she climbed up, and Fu Min followed her up. The mountain wall was not only steep, but also smooth, and she would fall if she wasn't paying attention.

When Nan Yi was about to go up, he saw the source of the water droplet. The water flow was not too big. He looked at the left and right sides, tried to think about it, thought for a while, stepped on the past stone, but it suddenly loosened and fell down.

Feng Yici's heart tightened, and he hurried forward, Fu Min was beside her, stretched out his hand to pull her, but he missed nothing, watched her fall from a height with his own eyes, his heart paused, and he shouted:
"General!!!"

Nan Yi didn't panic at all. She pulled out her sword and inserted it into the crack of the mountain wall with all her strength. After continuing to fall for a few meters, she stopped, hanging on a high place with one hand, precariously looking very scary.

"General!!" Fu Min worriedly called her name, and hurriedly climbed down, Feng Yici was watching from below, worried and anxious.

Climbing down is faster, Nan Yi persisted until Fu Min came over, rescued herself, and came down smoothly, the county magistrate hurried over, still disheveled, holding his official hat and shoes, and said:
"General, did you go up?"

Nan Yi glanced at him up and down, why didn't he look like an official, how could he be a county magistrate when he was idle all day long?Open your mouth and ask:

"There is a source of water up there. Are there any skilled people in Jiang County?"

"We are all ordinary people, and no one has practiced martial arts. How can we find someone with good skills?" The county magistrate responded with a smile.

"Find some strong men and prepare to chisel the mountain wall." Nan Yi ordered, and she still had to find a way for them to go up.

"This...no one dares to take the risk. After all, the mountain wall is steep. If you stumble, your life will be lost." The county magistrate showed distress, mainly because no one had ever survived, and they were all afraid.

"With me here, no one will die." Nan Yi's tone was very firm, and the county magistrate had no choice but to search for someone.

"Xiaoyi, you should be more careful." Feng Yici's worried voice sounded, he was almost scared to death just now, if something really happened, what should we do?
"Don't worry, I will never let you worry again, but how should they go up?"

"Tie them around their waists with a strong rope, and fix the rope to the mountain wall, so that there will be no accidents." Feng Yici suggested that this method is very simple, but the rope needs to be particularly long, which is also true. became a problem.

It was almost noon when the county magistrate brought the person he was looking for. He looked like a strong man, but he was not very smart, stupid?
"General, someone is here." The county magistrate said with a smile on his face. Nan Yi took a closer look. Except for not looking smart, there was no problem in other aspects, and it was barely usable.

"Is there a rope? The longer the better, preferably as long as the height of the mountain wall."

"Yes! A few days ago, I asked the blacksmith in Jiang County to make two or three iron ropes specially for exploring the water on the mountain wall. As a result, no one was able to go up." After the county magistrate finished speaking, he ordered his servants to let him go. take.

"No one went up?" Nan Yi asked in disbelief, so clumsy?
