Era of Breakdown

Chapter 22: Sakura's small cloth bag

   The curtain of night is like a blanket with no end in sight, painted with a light color. Many stars I saw last night are hidden in it, and I can't find them anyway. Soon, he is very likely to see the scene of "the sun and the moon shine together".

   Yaeji opened his eyes vigorously and shifted his gaze from the night to the patrol team members in front of him.

"one two three four five six seven."

   Seven people, seven faces, all with almost fanatical expressions.

   "Can't you wait for the early morning to come again? At this time you still want to go down the well to catch the tortoise up? It's so dark, who dares to go down?"

"I dare!"

"I dare!"

   the patrol members scrambled to say.

   Yaeji was speechless, didn't these people understand what he meant?

Nozawa, with a simple face, stood up, and said with a bitter expression: "It's not that we want to wake you up, but the news that the well was opened seven days ago has been spread. Since yesterday afternoon, villagers have carried buckets with them. Tao was waiting in line to fetch water. I was called by others in the middle of the night."

   Yaeji frowned, "The first ten people can take a scoop of water, and the others can wait until the evening."

   "Huh? Then they..."

   "What are they? When are seven days counted by myself? When are we digging a well and putting in the tortoise, let them continue to line up!"

   After eating the cold wind in the early morning, Nozawa shuddered. I don't know if it was his illusion. He always felt that he saw the shadow of Lord God ten years ago.

   "But... let the first ten people take a scoop of water first, isn't it too eccentric?" Some patrol team members were puzzled.

   "It's a reward for queuing in advance." Yae squinted at those demon eyes, not in a bad mood, but considering various factors.

  There are no monsters in the different world, and putting a tortoise into a well is just a way to check for heavy metals or contaminated soil.

   But the blood of monsters is different. Who knows if only humans can be infected? Everything is better to be careful.

  八重霁 is 90% sure that it is okay, but not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.

   "Go, go to the well first."

   Yaeji raised his foot forward, and the wooden door of the house next to him "creaked", revealing a small pink head inside.

   "Brother, can I follow along too?"

"come together."

   Yae Sakura smiled on her small face and hurriedly walked out of the house.

   "Let's go."

  ...

A long distance away, you can see a black head gathered at the side of the well. At first, a dozen people can still line up honestly. Behind it is a **** group, quite if you don’t let me, I don’t. Let your posture.

   Yaeji and others came to the well, and the patrol team that had been prepared immediately went down to the well and picked up the "sacred object".

   "My lord, I have seen it. The holy relic is very energetic and lives well."

   The team members held the turtle in both hands and handed the "sacred object" to Yaeji.

The villagers around    waiting to fetch water are moving forward, wanting to take a look at the legendary "sacred object". They have always been curious enough about rumors about gods and the like.

   Yaeji put the tortoise on the ground without touching it. It didn't take long for the tortoise to get a look outside, then retracted again.

  ‘It has not been polluted, nor has it changed. ’

   Yaeji made a rough judgement, he was relieved, and whispered to the patrol team behind him, letting them announce the news.

  ......

   "What? Only the first ten people can take a scoop of water? The others have to wait until the evening?"

   "Our family has been queuing since yesterday afternoon, how can this be done?"

   "That's it! Why can they get the water first? Just because they came a while earlier than us?"

   "Quiet!"

   Nozawa roared, "Do you want to question the holy thing? Or do you want to question the gods?!"

   As soon as God was mentioned, the villagers who had quarreled into the market immediately died down, and there was no more complaint.

   "Okay! When the first ten people come here to get a scoop of water, they can only drink it here! Have you heard?!"

When Nozawa was letting go of his loud voice, Yae Ji touched the man in charge of the patrol and whispered: "You will send someone to closely observe the people who have drunk. If there is an abnormality, immediately notify me. I."

   A strange color flashed in his eyes, and he lowered his head, "Yes."

   Yaeji suddenly felt that his hand was held by another small hand.

"elder brother."

   Yae Sakura leaned against him, worried: "Nothing will happen, right?"

   "It's okay." Yaeji smiled, "Are you tired of waiting? Are you going home to make breakfast for Rin?"

   "Brother wants to stay here?"

"Um."

   Yae Sakura glanced at the sky, the dawn was just breaking dawn, and the midnight retreat, the position in the middle of the sky formed a very good transitional color.

   "It's still early, I'll be with you for a while." Yingzhu's round and jade-run voice penetrated into the auricle, and the corner of Yaeji's mouth smiled even more.

"good."

  'S voice didn't sound like any waves, but the hands of the two little people held together, closer together.

   The man walked aside, came to the patrol, and left space for two people.

   "The water is coming!"

   tied with hemp rope to the handle of the wooden bucket, and hit the first bucket of water scooped from the well.

   The young man who fetched water swallowed frantically. If the captain hadn't told him repeatedly, he would definitely come first.

   "Come here, one person, one scoop of water, no one can scoop more, drink here before leaving! If you don't want to go, just go to the side and rest."

   The top ten villagers used the wooden scoop given by the patrol team to scoop water from the bucket. When they wanted to scoop it a second time, they were bombarded by the patrol team members.

   Other villagers saw that there was half a bucket left in the bucket. com can't wait for a "hungry tiger to fight for food" stepped forward to compete. Fortunately, reason has defeated desire. Anyway, they are thirsty most of the day, and they don't care about these hours anymore.

   Most of the top ten villagers who tasted welfare walked to their homes, only two of them stayed to rest, hoping to grab the well water as soon as possible in the evening.

   The guy winked at the patrol team members, and eight young men quietly walked around from one side, and followed the eight people away.

   This scene happened to be seen by a teenager.

   early morning.

   Sakura hurried back to the shrine to make breakfast for her sister Rin, but Yaeji found a stone and sat down. The weather is dry and hot, and many people gather together and are stuffy. The trees that have just been transplanted to the side of the well have not yet grown new shoots, and they have little shading effect.

   There are very few people chatting. As the sun rises, its energy wilfully radiates, people's desire to chat is getting lower and lower, and many villagers in the back even leave.

   The whole area is extremely dull.

   "呲~"

   "Thank you, thank you."

   Sakura’s crisp voice came, and the villagers sitting cross-legged on the ground automatically stepped out of the way.

   Yae Sakura, wearing a reduced-sized alternate maiden costume, carrying a small cloth bag, kept expressing gratitude to the villagers who gave way.

   "Huh~"

   The little girl who came to Yaeji breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly took off the small cloth bag tied to her body.

   "Brother, I brought your breakfast here."

   Sakura held the small cloth bag, carefully placed it next to the stone, spread the four corners evenly, and placed three large rice **** quietly in it.

  ......

   Yaezakura is holding a rice ball.

   "Would you like to eat it? Just exchange the recommendation ticket for it."
