Chapter 27
The imagination is beautiful, but the reality is very skinny.

They walked all day the next day, but they didn't find any water source. Fortunately, everyone had some foresight and didn't waste any water along the way.

In addition to the water for cooking, the water for washing vegetables is used up, and the water for washing dishes and pans is reserved after eating.

It was just one more day, and by the third day, all the water containers were dry.

There is water in the ugly space, but Qingyan can't get it out.

It doesn't matter if she and Chou Chou are stronger in force, it's completely reasonable, because in ancient times, some traveling merchants knew how to fight, otherwise they wouldn't dare to travel around.

But if there is this ability to create something out of nothing, it can't be justified.

If it is good, it will be confessed as a god, if it is not good, it will probably be burned to death as a monster.

Although through this period of getting along, I know that these people are likely to be the former, but this kind of thing is hard to say. If it is leaked, she will be in danger.

And she can't stay here for long, and she can't put everything in front of her, so that they can develop a dependent mentality, and they have to work hard to survive on their own.

So even though her thirsty lips were peeling, Qingyan didn't sneak out a little water to drink.

Relying on her hearing and eyesight, and Chouchou's advantage of being able to climb trees and look far away, she worked hard to find the water source.

Even if they were not on the road, but in the mountains, as long as they could see them, they could run to get some water and come back before moving on.

Come here, you have already entered the deep mountains, although there is still a road, there are no villages around, it can be said that there is no one inhabited except them.

And if this road is not because it is flatter and wider than other places, and there are no trees in the middle, it is almost unrecognizable as a road.

The ground was covered with weeds because no one had been there for a while, and in some places, they used shovels to shovel the thicker weed roots while walking forward.

If you push forward, the donkey cart will easily get entangled in it.

In the afternoon of the third day, there was still no water. Everyone was thirsty and felt that this was not the way to go, so they decided not to go forward, and went into the mountain from both sides separately to see if they could find water.

The trees here look very lush, and it doesn't look like there is a lack of water. Even if there are no pools and creeks on the mountain, there should be some small puddles that store water.

So they decided to leave two men and women here to watch, the three men looked for the hill on the right, and Qingyan and Chouchou looked for the hill on the left.

There is no way, if someone follows Qingyan and the two of them, it may not be able to help, not to mention, it may be a hindrance.

Over the past few days, they also understood the abilities of Qingyan and Chouchou.

He has good physical strength and fast speed. Although he looks very delicate, his strength and speed are really beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Qingyan has indeed grown a lot compared to before, except for the blisters on her feet on the first day.After walking for a few more days, the blisters on my feet burst and gradually turned into calluses, and I got used to this kind of exercise intensity.

After the assignment was made, they split up.

But it was also agreed that no matter whether you find it or not, you must come back before dark.

It is already around two o'clock in the afternoon, and it will be dark until seven o'clock in the evening when it is dark in summer. You can come back before that, and you can walk a certain distance for several hours.

Qingyan and Chouchou didn't grope forward slowly, but Chouchou went up to the tree and looked ahead to make sure there was no water, then they buried their heads and ran forward for a while.

Qingyan had already taken out her watch and put it in her backpack. After these few days, she has almost adjusted the time.

That's why she knows the current time. She can tell the time by looking at the sky. She hasn't learned this skill yet.

After entering the mountain, they have been walking up. According to Chou Chou, they are probably halfway up the mountain now.

Just one and a half hours after the departure, they were able to climb halfway up the mountain without a road, which shows that the mountain is not high.

Chouchou found the tallest tree again and climbed up, almost to the top of the tree, looked around where they were, and quickly climbed down.

Fleeing into Qingyan's arms, he said directly via voice transmission: "Yanyan, don't make a sound. Let me tell you, there is a situation ahead. Someone is ambushing about two or three hundred meters away. I wonder if they are ambushing us?"

Qingyan frowned, ambushing them?There was no obvious movement along the way, how was it discovered?

And if they had been eyeing them a long time ago, it would be impossible to run to such a far halfway up the mountain to ambush them, right?Wait until they place an order before they can make a move.

Qingyan felt that it was not the one who ambushed them, maybe someone else was here to ambush others, and the two of them broke into their ambush circle.

No, there is still a distance of 300 meters, so it should not be considered breaking in. If it is now, there is still time to return.

But after walking here, she still hasn't found the water source. If she goes back, she feels that the previous road has been lost, which is a bit of a loss.

So he said to Chou Chou: "Let's go around, can we avoid those people?"

Chou Chou shook his head, "We can't dodge it, they ambushed about 30 to [-] people and blocked the whole way up the mountain. If we want to go up the mountain, we have to pass them.

Because they cut off the way up, there is a cliff to our left, and a valley not far to the right, it is impossible for us to go around.

Unless you go down the mountain and go back, go around the valley and go up again, just this way, you probably won't be able to go up the mountain tomorrow. "

Qingyan was a little discouraged when she heard the words, if that was the case, she had no choice but to go down the mountain.

It's not here to find treasure, so I won't go desperately with others.

Besides, even if it passed, there might not be any water source on it, so there was no need to take this risk.

There are 30 people, she is not sure that she can knock them down.

Before dealing with those Khitan people, it was because of surprise and the help of Chou Chou that they were all killed.

This kind of people ambushes in advance, although it is not considered that the enemy is in the dark, they are in the light, but they are not gathered together, but scattered, it is impossible to wait for them to solve them one by one.

As soon as they started, they probably surrounded them. No matter how skilled the other party was, they couldn't do it at all.

Qingyan is not so arrogant that she thinks that she is invincible after learning a little boxing. Not to mention she has only practiced for more than ten years. After all, she has no combat experience, and she has always practiced for physical fitness and self-defense.

Dad told her that if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, one thing more is worse than one thing less. When something happens, hide as much as you can. There is no need to know the danger yourself. If you have to go into danger, that is not brave or stupid!
