Hong Haier whispered: "I knew it was like this! There is a lot of water, and you still give us that kind of broken water. Hmph, it's really not a good thing."
"Teacher, I'm not close to you, it's a kindness to give you water, and it's human nature not to give you water. Why do you complain so much?" Fangzheng scolded in a low voice.
Red Boy pursed his mouth, disapproving, and said: "No, I'm thirsty, he won't give it to me, I'll go find it myself." After speaking, he turned around and ran to the well room.
Fang was eavesdropping outside the door of someone's house, so he couldn't shout loudly, so he could only follow, trying to stop Hong Hai'er.
The red boy ran very fast, and got into the well room in one fell swoop.
The well house is an independent house with thicker walls, apparently specially made to prevent the sun's heat from entering and evaporating water.
Fangzheng opened the door and entered, and saw Honghaier standing there in a daze.
Fangzheng followed the eyes of the red boy, and saw that there was a mystery inside the well room. The center was empty, surrounded by sloping roofs, and there was a water reservoir in the middle, with a big cover covering the water reservoir. Now the lid has been lifted, revealing the water below... To be precise, a slightly damp cement pool!
Red Boy turned his head, looked at Fangzheng with some doubts and said, "Master, where did they hide the water?"
Fangzheng sighed and said, "It's all here..."
Seeing this, Fangzheng has basically understood that this village is not generally short of water, but very short of water! Their water mainly comes from rain from the sky, and how often does it rain in this place? This is clearly a problem. This house is used to save water and store water.
There is a bag next to it, which is a powder for disinfection. The water I drank before had a strange smell, which is probably the smell of the powder.
Hong Haier squished his mouth and kept silent. The house had run out of water, and a big bowl was brought to him, but he vomited and complained all kinds of things. Now...
Fangzheng patted Red Boy on the head, left the water room, and returned to his own room.
Not long after, Village Chief Lei came and asked the two of them to go out to eat. They cooked potatoes and radishes, and there was obviously a smell of disinfectant powder in the dishes, which tasted very bad. The rice is far inferior to the crystal rice from One Finger Temple... But Fangzheng still ate two big bowls.
Back in the meditation room, Hong Haier looked at Fangzheng with disdain and said, "There is no water in the house, how dare you eat so much?"
Fangzheng smiled and said, "If someone treats you warmly, if you don't eat after one bite, doesn't it mean that what they cook is not delicious? That would be impolite."
Hong Hai'er turned her head and said, "Anyway, you have a reason."
The two were about to say something when they suddenly heard a chaotic sound from outside. Many people were laughing, as if it was Chinese New Year. Village Chief Lei even rushed out with a smile on his face.
Fangzheng and Honghaier looked at each other, and immediately followed out.
I saw two carriages parked at the entrance of the village. There were many boxes on the carriages and they were covered with thick cloth. One of the carriages has opened the cloth, and you can see that it is covered with mineral water.
A group of men and women in brighter clothes stood at the door talking and laughing with the villagers. A woman in jeans and a big scarf even took a selfie with her arms around her. Nervous, but smiling happily, obviously this mobile phone is something new to him, and he also likes to take pictures.
A burly man was wiping his sweat with a towel. As soon as Village Chief Lei came over, the two immediately had a big bear hug, and then laughed and said something.
Fangzheng and Honghaier approached, seeing Dachengzi, Fangzheng immediately asked what happened.
Da Chengzi smiled and said, "Uncles and sisters brought us water, haha...we can drink clean water again, haha..."
Fangzheng was stunned. He didn't expect the villagers to be as happy as New Year's Eve, just because they can drink clean water! Thinking about his own life again, compared with them, it was like Lingshan Paradise, what else could he complain about?
Fangzheng asked a few more questions, and only then did he know that Daili Village has been seriously short of water in the past few years, and it is becoming more and more scarce. Because of the lack of water, young people ran out to work in order to survive, leaving behind a group of old people and left-behind children to live a difficult life here. These old people are unable to move out, and they are also unable to go out to survive. Coupled with deep-rooted feelings, it is almost impossible for them to leave their hometown and leave here.
Without water, it is very difficult for people to live. They hope that it will rain from God, and it was okay before. However, in the past two years, there has been less rainfall every year. This year, the elderly in the village almost died of thirst. Village head Lei asked for help everywhere, and the government also sent people here to search for groundwater in an attempt to dig a well, but the groundwater here has long since dried up, and there is no place to dig a well. The government functions to organize people to carry water inside, but motor vehicles cannot enter the mountain road, so they can only be carried by horses and people. However, this is not a long-term solution after all, so I began to ask the society for help.
When everyone knew the situation in Daili Village, many caring people from the society formed a small group, and every day some people used horses to drive water across mountains and ridges to the village.
And the team in front of me is one of them, and the only team that has persisted. They have been delivering water for half a year, and they usually deliver a truckload of water in one or two days. On the day, if there are enough people, the car will be delivered. They will also send candies, schoolbags, and new clothes to the children. It can be said that they are the most welcome guests and best friends of the villagers.
Looking at these people in front of him, Fangzheng was in awe. There are always some people, not for fame and wealth, but for a kind heart, who silently pay for others without asking for anything in return. There are many such people, but they rarely make headlines, but it is precisely because of the existence of such a group of people that the world will become more and more beautiful.
However, Honghaier rolled his eyes and said, "Master, there are so many fools."
Snapped!
Fangzheng slapped the red boy directly on the head, before reprimanding him, he heard a soft reprimand: "Stop it, why do you beat the child?"
While speaking, a woman wearing a pink top and khaki trousers ran over, hugged the red boy, and stared at Fang Zheng with her eyes like light bulbs. Fangzheng thought, if there is a switch here, it must be a big 80-watt light bulb! The eyes are too bright!
The woman's skin is slightly yellow, but she has a bit of spirituality in the wind and dust. She can't say how beautiful she is, but she is the kind of attractive type.
When the woman roared, all the people in the motorcade also looked over. They were stunned. In this loess-filled village, there is such a white and clean monk. It is indeed too conspicuous. Especially the woman holding the red boy looked at Fang Zheng like a monster. The monk's skin was even better than hers! At that moment, the woman's mind was supplemented with countless information. To be able to dress so fair and maintain such a good skin, this monk must not be a decent monk! At least not an ascetic monk, the kind that must be very particular... and beat children, which is quite fierce, not a fake monk. At least not the kind of eminent monk who endures hardships and stands hard work!
