"How long will they take to get there? Does it look like there is anything to eat in this mountain?" Uncle Chen and his group, who were following from a distance, kept up with them, cursing.

Chen felt a little regretful. He shouldn't have kept up. Now his efforts down the mountain were in vain. He could only follow them closely and hope that these people would not let him down.

If Tang Qiyue knew what the other person was thinking, she would definitely call him shameless.

Getting closer and closer, Tang Qiyue could already feel the fluctuations of supernatural powers being released, and she quickened her pace again.

After a while, they arrived at a desolate area. The ground was covered with dead branches, dried animal feces, and gravel, as well as a large pit, leaving no place to step.

Tang Qiyue silently withdrew his supernatural power, stood outside the pit and looked inside. It was obvious that this should have been a puddle for animals to live and drink water, but now it was completely dry.

The supernatural power stopped here, so Tang Qiyue jumped into the pit without saying a word and pulled up the weeds on it.

Tang Qingshu was startled and jumped down. Seeing his sister digging the ground, he quickly took out the hoe he brought with him and said, "Sister, let me dig." Although he didn't know what his sister was going to do, he supported her unconditionally.

Xu Fang and his companions also jumped down. He had been active in the mountains for many years. As soon as he reached the bottom of the pit, he noticed something strange. His eyes lit up and he said, "This..."

Tang Qiyue nodded, "You're right, let's dig it up quickly."

That's right, although the pit has dried up, her supernatural power won't bring her here in vain. So when she got close to here, Tang Qiyue took a special look around and found that the ground was a little moist and not as dry as before, so she was sure that there must be water underground, but she didn't know how deep to dig to find it.

Hearing that there should be water underground, the other two men almost knelt down and kowtowed, and started digging with their hands rubbed excitedly.

Fortunately, everyone brought convenient farm tools, and they were all good at work. They worked together and soon the work was done!

They didn't let Tang Qiuyue start digging, so Tang Qiuyue simply climbed up to the surface of the pit and walked around.

The surrounding trees had dried up and cracked, but when Tang Qiuyue got to the roots of the trees, she found some young shoots of weeds. It was obvious that there was not enough water for them to grow.

Tang Qiyue looked around and did not detect any stranger's presence. After covering the tender buds with her hand for half a cup of tea, she saw that the wild vegetable buds that were originally dying had grown into a large patch and were all mature.

"Look, there are so many wild vegetables here." Tang Qingshu and a few others who were digging a hole heard the sound and immediately lay down at the edge of the pit and looked out. They saw a green patch at Tang Qiyue's feet.

"Wild vegetables, there are wild vegetables here! That's great, that's great!" Several people exclaimed in joy.

Xu Fang glanced at the people who were following not far away and shouted, "Second Boss, hurry up and pick all the wild vegetables. They are following us."

He was not afraid, but just didn't want to get entangled with these people. It was too annoying.

Tang Qiyue nodded, squatted down and picked wild vegetables skillfully.

So when Uncle Chen and his friends hurried over to catch up, they only saw a large area of wild vegetable roots, without a single wild vegetable, and they immediately became jealous. If they ran faster, all the wild vegetables would be theirs!

Tang Qiyue raised an eyebrow at the group of people, put on a full basket of wild vegetables, and walked to the edge of the pit.

Seeing this, Uncle Chen could only suppress his dissatisfaction in his heart and walked over, "Miss Tang, what are you doing?" His cloudy old eyes stared at the people who were digging the pit, trying to see something.

Tang Qiyue replied indifferently, "Digging a hole."

"But do you want to hunt?" Seeing Tang Qiyue caring about him, Uncle Chen was delighted and continued to ask.

Who knew that Tang Qiyue didn't say anything this time.

Uncle Chen felt something was not right the more he looked at it. He suddenly remembered what the older generation had said in idle chat. He muttered to himself with trembling lips, "This is groundwater. This is groundwater."

When Tang Qiyue heard the voice, she raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that this person knew so much.

"Water? There is water here?" The people brought by Uncle Chen were suddenly very excited. They rolled up their sleeves and wanted to jump into the pit, but were stopped by Tang Qiyue.

"What are you doing? Do you understand what first come, first served means?" Tang Qiyue stretched out her hand to block the group of people, the dagger in her hand shining coldly.

"We don't understand what comes first and what comes later. I just know there is water here and I want to get some." The sturdy woman pinched her waist and glared at Tang Qiyue, looking like she wanted to hit someone at any time.

"You dare." He is really capable to snatch things from Tang Qiyue's hands.

Uncle Chen stopped the other party, looked at Tang Qiyue, and then looked at Xu Fang and the others who were busy working, and said anxiously, "Miss Tang, there are only four of you, and we don't know how long it will take to finish digging. Look at how many of us there are, why don't we dig together?"

Worried that Tang Qiyue might get angry and beat someone up, Uncle Chen quickly said, "Don't worry, I promise that when the water comes out, you guys will get it first, and we'll get it later."

Tang Qiyue did not agree immediately, but looked at the elder brother and others in the pit. Although there were few people, they had dug about one meter deep, and the soil was becoming more and more moist. She believed that water would appear soon.

But it was already dark, so we should not delay any longer. Having more people digging would save time, so she said, "You arrange for four people to go down and dig, and the others can do whatever they want."

There are four people on each side, checking and balancing each other.

Xu Fang and his companions had no objection to Tang Qiuyue's decision; they continued to dig.

With four more people, the process was indeed much faster. Tang Qiyue saw it and sat cross-legged at the edge of the pit without saying a word.

An hour later, Tang Qingshu's surprised voice came from the bottom of the pit, "Water is coming out, water is coming out."

Tang Qiyue stood up and looked down. She saw a small stream of water coming out from Tang Qingshu's feet. It was not big, but it was getting bigger and bigger. She hurriedly said, "You come up first."

So several people came up by stepping on each other's shoulders and digging the soil.

Water mixed with mud bubbled up slowly. After a long time, it only reached the height of a person's calf. Even this was enough.

Tang Qiyue knew that there was still water underground. She just needed to take the time to keep digging. However, she would not do that because she wanted to keep water for the mountain.

Xu Fang quickly took out all the water bottles he had brought with him, and tried his best not to mix in mud when filling them.

But the water is muddy, and that cannot be avoided.

Seeing this, Tang Qiyue said softly, "Just pour it in, I can clean the soil."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fang, Tang Qingshu and others quickened their movements. Uncle Chen, who was standing by, watched them, angry but unable to say anything. It was only a small matter to talk too much, but what if they were not given water?

After filling up the kettles, Tang Qiyue and his group did not plan to stay any longer and prepared to go down the mountain. While Uncle Chen and his group were fetching water, they left quickly and efficiently.

The way down the mountain was dangerous at every turn because of the dark sky.

Tang Qiyue looked around and suddenly stopped.

As far as her sight could reach, there was a round light reflected by the moon. Tang Qiyue walked towards the light and saw the jade pendant left on the ground. She looked forward along the direction of the jade pendant and exclaimed in surprise, "Is it him?"
