"Stop and rest!"

It was the hottest time of the day, and the team finally stopped.

There is still no water source here, and the grass and trees are not as lush as before due to the scorching sun, with their leaves drooping.

The water that each family brought was about to run out, and Yu Yaozu was extremely worried.

After hearing the order to stop, he got into the carriage. In the carriage was an ice pack that Yu Baibai had taken out from the space. This ice pack was a gift from something he bought online, and he was reluctant to throw it away.

Now it comes in handy, it feels quite cool in my hand.

These three ice packs are really spoiled to the extreme by the family of three.

Yu Yaozu grabbed an ice pack as soon as he got in the car and whispered to Yu Baibai. Qiao Mu got out of the car directly to find his father.

Qiao Mu came to Qiao Qingfeng and asked if there was any way to find water.

Qiao Qingfeng shook his head helplessly, saying that the surrounding environment was very dry and no water source was found, not even when digging downwards.

Just then, the headman and his men came to the outside of the carriage, also with worried looks on their faces. Everyone was very tired, and coupled with the lack of water, they all endured by licking their chapped lips.

It was only the second day and the water we brought was almost used up. After all, not every family can afford a water bag.

Basically, they use buckets or pigs

Just when everyone was at a loss, Yu Yaozu came out of the car and called everyone together.

"We can't just keep moving forward blindly."

"Not only will this waste our energy, it may also make us even more dehydrated. So, I decided to split into two groups. One group will search in the southeast direction, and the other will explore in the northwest direction. By acting separately, we can increase our chances of finding water."

Everyone agreed and then set off in groups.

Qiao Lin and Qiao Sen each set out with a team of people, praying silently in their hearts that they could find water as soon as possible to save the entire team.

The village head brought a group of elderly, weak, women and children, who were waiting eagerly, and were so anxious that blisters appeared on their mouths.

"Let's go, let's go. Don't look here anymore. Can you see the water from here?"

Just when he was in a hurry, he turned around and saw people behind him. The village head was frightened and waved his hands to chase them away.

Yu Baibai walked on the front of the car, feeling a little uncomfortable. He clearly had water in his own space, but these uncles were still thirsty...

"Baibai, you must understand the principle of being in possession of a treasure."

"Mom, I know... I just feel sad..." The little body was filled with depression, and even the little hair that was standing up drooped down.

Yu Yaozu didn't know how to comfort her, so he could only reach out and rub Yu Baibai's little head:

"Don't think too much. I and your mother are here for you. You're still young and thinking too much. Be careful not to grow tall~"

-

As the evening approached and the sky grew darker, everyone's mood grew heavier.

They hadn't found any water all day and returned exhausted.

"Village head, everyone... I'm sorry..." Qiao Lin tried his best, but there was really no water source.

These people ate the food that everyone collected and went to look for water, but they couldn't find any. It was really frustrating.

The village head and other villagers rushed forward to comfort them, encouraging everyone not to lose heart, and decided to continue searching tomorrow.

At night, everyone was silent by the campfire.

At this time, Yu Baibai secretly walked to Qiao Qingfeng and pulled him aside.

The little head moved around like a thief, handed him a water bag, and whispered:

"Grandpa, this is some water I saved this afternoon. You can drink it." Qiao Qingfeng looked at Yu Baibai in surprise and took the water bag.

Qiao Qingfeng hadn't taken it seriously at first, but now, looking at the water bag in his hand, he swallowed unconsciously and picked up Yu Baibai:

"Baibai, where did you get the water?"

Yu Baibai lowered his head and said softly, "I... Baibai hid it secretly!"

"It's so strange that it's hot during the day and cold at night!"

"Yeah! Stop talking and go to sleep! You're getting thirsty from talking too much."

"It's gone. It's gone."

A child was crying and making a fuss: "Mom, water, mom... I want to drink water!... I'm thirsty!"

The children around him, led by that child, began to pout and were about to cry.

The village head was puffing on his tobacco-free pipe and scratching his head in worry.

In the Yu family's carriage, Yu Baibai and his family were eating fruit while holding ice packs.

"Dad, Mom, do we have any plastic sheeting at home?"

"Girl, what do you want that for?"

"Mom and Dad, do we have a bamboo tube at home?" Yu Baibai racked his brains to think about the knowledge he had learned, but he couldn't think of much.

Qiao Mu continued, "There are three. Mom will get them for you."

After saying that, he lifted the car curtain and went out to rummage through his luggage. After a while, he found three bamboo tubes as thick as an adult's arm.

Yu Baibai greeted his parents and they got out of the car and walked to a nearby place.

He drew a circle and glanced at Yu Yaozu...

Yu Yaozu was very smart and just squatted down and started digging.

"Okay, Dad, just put the bamboo tube in and don't let it fall over." He turned and looked at Qiao Mu:

"Mom, can you go get some oil paper? About half a meter will do."

"Dad, change position and continue digging."

Yu Yaozu was digging a hole when he asked, "Babai, why are you digging such a big hole?"

There's no way, I really don't know as much about this as my own daughter. I only chose cooking as my skill...

Yu Baibai shook his head twice calmly:

"You'll know tomorrow morning. Mom will bring the oil paper soon. All you need to do is spread the oil paper over the pit and press it down with stones or something on both sides."

"I remember Mom brought my little oil-paper umbrella with her. I'll go get it!"

After saying that, he kicked up his heels and ran away, not caring at all how lonely his father was.

After a while, he came back with a bunch of messy things.

She squatted on the ground and tossed around the umbrella. After a while, she tied small bamboo tubes around it. I don't know where she got the bamboo tubes from.

He put the umbrella in a grassy area and left it there, patting his chubby hands and returning to his father:

"Dad, are you done? Why are you digging so slowly?"

Yu Yaozu: "..." If you weren't my biological daughter... I'd beat you up! It's really easy to talk without any pain in your waist.

Qiao Mu also came over with the cut oil paper: "Not ready yet?"

Yu Yaozu: “…”

The three of them finished it in no time.

The villagers who were still awake looked at them curiously, but no one came forward to ask.

After finishing these, Yu Baibai was taken back to sleep. When he woke up, Yu Baibai ran excitedly to see the results of yesterday.

really!

It worked!

It’s just a little bit, but at least I can hold on with my saliva.

"Dad! Dad!" Yu Baibai shouted at the top of his voice.

Yu Yaozu was just lighting a fire to prepare dinner when he was called by his daughter. He wiped his hands on himself and said:

"Hey! What's wrong?"

"Dad! Look! Water!"

Everyone was attracted by the sound of water and came over.

"Uncle Yaozu, what are you doing? Why are you putting water on the oil paper? What a waste!" Yu Goudan was the first to run over.

Yu Yaozu didn't answer in a hurry. He helped pour the water into the bamboo tubes first. After all this effort, he collected two bamboo tubes of water.

The most collected ones are from the umbrella that Yu Baibai made himself.

The village chief was just chewing on some dry food when he was pulled over by Yu Goudan.

Yu Yaozu took a bamboo tube and answered everyone's questions one by one.

"Great! Finally, there's water!"
