Chapter 1510 Xipo Village and Dongpo Village

When Meng Hao was extremely shocked, the old man took out a wooden barrel from the shed tremblingly and pointed his hand to the west.

"There is an old well from here to the west. Go and see if there is any water. If so, please help me bring a bucket back!"

The old man's pronunciation is very strange, and his wording is completely different from that in modern times.

That should be the difference between ancient and modern.

But strangely, Meng Hao could not use the magical abilities at all, nor could he use the Five Elements Mystery Method, but he could not only understand these ancient languages, but also naturally spoke them.

But he could not inquire with the old man more, because no matter whether it was the concept of "earth" or "time", in this ancient era when eating raw meat and drinking blood and not covering his body, it was impossible for anyone to understand it.

Meng Hao could only thank the old man and jumped onto the horse with a bucket.

After running west for five or six minutes, I saw a cliff from afar.

There is indeed an old well below the cliff.

The well was just a prototype of the well, not entirely artificial excavation, but a rock crack originally existed at the bottom of the cliff.

People probably found that there was water under the crack, so they used manual digging to make the crack bigger, which turned into an old well in this period.

There were seven or eight people coming here to fetch water around the well.

These people only had a thick burlap around their waists, and they all had pale faces and were obviously malnourished.

Among them, there were two old women, both naked and shriveled upper bodies, and they were not ashamed to be among the men.

Men probably used to it, and no one looked at the two women more.

Instead, they looked at Meng Hao with one side, their eyes full of surprise and weirdness, as if they were looking at a monster.

Meng Hao immediately understood that it was his clothes and dress that made these people feel strange.

But now he cannot use the Five Elements Mystery Method, and he cannot transform into an ancient costume. He can only jump off the horse in the eyes of everyone and walk towards the old well surrounded by the group of people.

And as Meng Hao approached step by step, the group of people retreated one after another.

A slightly strong man asked in a trembling voice: "You, you... are you... human or monster?"

"I am a human being, but I come from very far away, so my dressing is different from you!"

Meng Hao had to explain this, trying to be gentler and calmer.

The man may have breathed a little relieved when he heard that Meng Hao could speak the same language as them.

However, the vigilance in his eyes did not ease much. Seeing Meng Hao approaching, he still retreated with the others.

"That seems to be the bucket of Grandpa's family!"

A woman suddenly pointed at the bucket in Meng Hao's hand and exclaimed.

Everyone else recognized it, and everyone immediately looked at Meng Hao with increasingly vigilant eyes.

Meng Hao hurriedly explained: "This was given to me by an old man at the entrance of the village below. I gave him an excuse to drink water. He asked me to take the bucket to the well and fetch water, and also helped him carry a bucket of water back!"

The simple nature of people in this period, Meng Hao's explanation did not arouse the suspicion of these people at all. Instead, the vigilance on everyone's faces has been reduced a lot.

The slightly stronger man even spoke, "Then you get water first! You didn't bring a rope, take my rope over and use it!"

He threw a roll of old rope in his hand to Meng Hao.

Meng Hao looked carefully and found that the rope was also made of thick numb, which was the same material as the linen around the waists of these people.

Tugging with your hands, it's quite strong.

So Meng Hao thanked him and tied the rope to the bucket first.

The man probably saw Meng Haosheng and Wenxiu, he took the initiative to step forward and said, "The water in the well is already very deep, and it takes a lot of effort to lift it up. If you can't lift it, I can help you!"

Meng Hao once again lamented that the people of this era are so simple and kind. They are all pale and thin and have no energy, but they are so enthusiastic about him, a strange dressed stranger with unknown origin.

But Meng Hao certainly couldn't ask this man to help him get water. Instead, he thanked him and brought the bucket to the well.

Because this well was penetrated into the ground along the rock crack, the wellhead was not round, but had a flat shape.

The inner wall of the well is not like a modern well, with bricks and stones built to strengthen protection, but half of it is natural rock, and the other half is soil, and there are traces of excavation on the soil.

Meng Hao didn't know how deep the water surface in the well was, but at this time, the water in the well was indeed very deep, at least below twelve or twelve or thirteen meters.

But even so, Meng Hao still thought of a saying: There is no way out for everyone.

For example, in the ten suns today, almost any place with water sources will evaporate quickly, but deep in this well, there is sufficient water source so that the people in this land will not lose their last hope of survival. As a modern person in the 21st century, Meng Hao certainly could not have used a bucket of water to make water, but with his ability to reach the peak level of the Grand Master, he could easily make a bucket of water and then easily carry it up.

The villagers next to him saw that he was so pretty, but they actually brought a bucket of water effortlessly. They couldn't help but look at him one by one, full of admiration and envy.

Meng Hao knew that in this era, the one who advocated the most was definitely force and heroes. It was not surprising that these people would have such a look at him.

Seeing that these villagers had a pale face and were exhausted, Meng Hao couldn't bear it, so he just poured half of his stomach into the bucket, and then let the dark horse drink the remaining water in the bucket. He took the initiative to step forward and help the villagers fetch water.

Perhaps the villagers saw that he had easily fetched water before, so they didn't be too polite to him. They just thanked him twice and handed the buckets to him one by one.

I didn't expect that after just getting the water for the two women, I suddenly heard a shout.

The villagers looked back and suddenly looked panicked, and they all said, "The people from Dongpo Village are here again!"

Meng Hao looked back and saw a group of men roaring towards this side.

This group of people are all young and strong men, and they are obviously much stronger and stronger than the villagers around him. It seems that these people's lives are better than the villagers around him.

Especially the leading man was not only surrounded by thick burlap, but also wearing a wide burlap cage on his upper body, revealing his two strong arms.

"Who asked you to draw water here? This well has already belonged to our Dongpo Village. The people in your Xipo Village are catching water here, just stealing the water from our Dongpo Village!"

Before he got closer, the leading man was already shouting loudly.

"This well was originally dug by our Xipo Village. We won't say that you Dongpo Village comes to fetch water. Why do you have to completely occupy it and not let our Xipo Village get water!"

The slightly stronger man in Xipo Village had to argue.

But he knew that he was not a match for the people of Dongpo Village, so he obviously didn't have much momentum.
