Jiang Qinyu was helpless, "Uncle Village Chief, this is really..."

She couldn't just give him the pipe and ask him to pump the water, right? That would require a pump!

But it's not completely impossible. She knows how to divert water from low places to high places. Why not give it a try?

"What's going on?" Village Chief Li looked at her nervously. "Do you have a plan?"

Jiang Qinyu hesitated and said, "There is a way, but I don't know if we can do it."

"It's okay, as long as there is a way. Just tell me what you want to do. If there is any problem, we can find a solution together." Village chief Li patted his chest and said.

Since he said so, Jiang Qinyu could only express her thoughts, "How many carpenters are there in our village? Can they make what I'm talking about?"

Village Chief Li thought for a moment and said, "We'll have to go back to the village and ask Grandpa Jiang. He's the best carpenter in our village. You're talking about using some kind of water flow to make the wooden blades rotate, and then increase the pressure to divert water up the mountain, right?"

He really didn't understand what he heard, and his mind felt confused.

Jiang Qinyu nodded, "Then I'll talk to Grandpa Jiang about this matter after we get back."

"Okay, let's go down and take a look first, drink some water and then come back up." Village Chief Li said, and started to go down into the valley.

The slope here is quite steep. Jiang Qinyu went down while observing the terrain, and was already thinking about how to use a water pump to bring the water up.

In fact, if you want to use the water here without too much trouble, you just need to pump the water to the top of the mountain, and then connect a pipe from the top of the mountain to the valley where they came up.

The key is whether a water pump can be made.

Jiang Qinyu knew the principle, but had never done it herself, so she had to see if the elderly in the village could find a way to make it happen.

Not long after, Jiang Qinyu and his group arrived at this paradise.

The small animals avoided them from afar when they saw them. I guess it was the psychological trauma left on them by the previous tiger.

"You know what, this scenery is quite beautiful, right, Dahammer?" Liu Erlang said happily.

Li Dachui also smiled foolishly, "Yes, it looks good!"

It doesn’t matter if it looks good, what matters is that there is water here! Lots and lots of water!

It didn't seem that big when you were on the mountain, but after you came down, Jiang Qinyu discovered that the lake was very big and it was in the shape of a ring with a gap. It was estimated that the overall size was hundreds or thousands of acres.

No wonder they could hear the sound of water outside but couldn’t tell where exactly it was. It was actually all inside!

The sound of water is made by the small animals in the valley.

"Is the water in this lake drinkable?" someone suddenly asked.

Jiang Qinyu nodded, "Yes, but you have to boil it before drinking."

She walked towards the small pond she had just seen on the top of the mountain. When she got closer, she found that the pond was not very small, and water was still seeping out from the mountain wall.

When the pond is full, it flows from the low-lying area into the lake.

Jiang Qinyu squatted down, gently scooped up a handful of water, took a sip, and found it sweet at first and lingering after swallowing. It was indeed genuine mountain spring water.

"Uncle village chief, let's protect this place. The water here is very good. If you come to fetch water in the future, you can use the water in the pond for drinking and the water in the lake for washing." Jiang Qinyu suggested.

Village Chief Li nodded without hesitation, "Okay, I'll do as you say!"

"How about this," Meng Tianze suddenly said, "Let's build a few thatched huts here, and anyone in the village who can't stand the heat can come and stay here for a few days."

Since they have decided to use the water here, they have to make sure the water source is not polluted. If the weather continues to be dry, they will not be able to fundamentally solve the problem by carrying water back and forth.

"Of course you can, but the number of people who come can't be too small, for fear of encountering some ferocious beasts." Village chief Li said thoughtfully.

Jiang Qinyu also nodded. "Yes, safety is definitely the top priority. If we want to bring water up later, we must also prevent the animals in the valley from damaging the water pumps and pipes we have built."

We must leave some people here, but we have to discuss this with Village Chief Li and the others after we go back.

"There's one more thing," Old Man Lu came over at this time, "I'm thinking about going to see where the underground river we saw earlier leads to. Even if we can't use the water there, we should at least have some idea of ​​where it leads to."

Meng Tianze slapped his thigh and said, "Uncle Lu, you and I are thinking the same thing!"

"I'll remember that," Village Chief Li waved his hand. "But we have to wait until we get back and discuss it with everyone. We have to make all the necessary preparations before we go. What if we walk down there for ten days or half a month and still can't find the end? What are you going to do?"

Jiang Qinyu agreed, "The village chief is right, but I suggest we explore in the direction of Dingshui Village first to see if there are any tributaries flowing towards the village. If there are, we can find a way to divert the water away, and then the crops in the village will be saved."

In fact, this is the question she has been thinking about for the past two days. If the water in the underground river cannot be utilized, this disaster year will be very difficult.

They couldn't just rely on finding food in the mountains to survive the years of disaster. When it snowed heavily in winter, what could they find in the mountains? So they had to have something to produce from their own land to feel at ease.

Jiang Qinyu looked around and sighed inwardly. This was only a temporary solution to the immediate problem, and they still had a long way to go.

After everyone walked around in the valley, the men all wanted to go into the water to wash, but when they saw Jiang Qinyu there, they felt embarrassed.

"Uncle village chief, Dad, you all go wash up. I'll go over there and take a look first." Seeing this, Jiang Qinyu quickly pointed to the small bamboo forest in the valley.

Old Man Lu was a little worried, "Otherwise, you'd better not go..."

"It's okay, Dad. I'm close. I'll call you if anything happens." Jiang Qinyu smiled and walked over there.

Village Chief Li hooked his arm around Old Man Lu's shoulder and said, "Old Lu, your daughter-in-law is absolutely amazing, but it's a pity... Alas!"

Thinking of Lu Yanzheng, whose life or death was unknown, Old Man Lu sighed, "I hope my Ah Zheng will have this blessing!"

No matter what others say, as long as it is not confirmed, he will believe that Lu Yanzheng is still alive.

Village Chief Li shook his head and said, "Let's go and wash up. I don't want to smell this smell anymore."

The men were all taking baths on this side of the lake. Jiang Qinyu on the other side actually wanted to take a bath as well, but it was really inconvenient here, so she gave up the idea for the time being.

After arriving behind the bamboo forest, Jiang Qinyu activated the system and carefully checked the situation in the aquatic area.

It was no different from what she remembered. In addition to the frozen products displayed outside, there were live fish and shrimps in the large tank over there, and even big crabs were alive.

Jiang Qinyu was stunned. What was the principle behind this? Could she even get in?

Just as Jiang Qinyu was thinking this, the system prompt sound rang in her mind again.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the portable space function! Friendly reminder: The space is based on a supermarket. Only the host can enter and exit freely, and no living creatures can be brought in.]

Jiang Qinyu was stunned. What was going on? Was it that originally only her consciousness could enter, but now she could enter as well?
