Chapter 796: River of life

"Children, are you new here? Come on, grandma has water here, you will feel better if you drink some!"
A gray-haired old man limped to Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun's side with a cane. After taking a close look at Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun, he kindly raised his hand and patted Du Xuechun on the back. So that Du Xuechun can relax.
"Thank you, old man, thank you so much!"
After Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun recovered, the gray-haired old man handed the bamboo tube in front of Du Xuechun. Du Xuechun smiled gratefully at the gray-haired old man and took it. The bamboo tube that the old man handed over, opened the bamboo cover, and drank it.
Afterwards, Du Xuechun handed the bamboo tube in front of Feng Xuanche. After Feng Xuanche took it, he quickly drank a few sips until the warm and cold water flowed into his stomach, and Feng Xuanche felt that he was all right. a lot of.
Feng Xuan Che put the bamboo lid tightly closed and handed it back to the old man. Looking at the gray-haired old man in front of him, he asked, "Old man, how do you know we are new here?"
"Hahaha, because I was standing in the distance just now, and seeing you see the hungry people looting the baby's corpse, you will have such a big reaction, you know you must be new here, and ah...the thin figure in front of me Boy, should it be a little girl?"
The old man laughed and explained to Du Xuechun and Feng Xuanche. Finally, after talking about Du Xuechun's true identity, he deliberately lowered his voice, and he was extremely triumphant with a look that was not unexpected to me.
Because this gray-haired old man saw that Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun behaved so intimately, and even though Du Xuechun was already disguised as a man, a small face was painted like a cat.
However, Du Xuechun's body was too thin, and his waist and arms were too thin, which made the elderly have to have doubts. Until the elderly saw Du Xuechun and Feng Xuanche hearing what he said, they looked surprised, and the elderly became even more surprised. Firm his guess.
"Don't worry, grandma, I won't say anything, we understand you. After all, the current situation is turbulent, and everywhere is insecure. This way of dressing is still good and can avoid a lot of trouble.
Seeing Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun, the old grandmother couldn't help but frowned. She looked helpless. The old grandmother waved her hand to Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun and explained.
Seeing the old grandma say this, Feng Xuanche and Du Xuechun breathed a long sigh of relief, and hurriedly whispered their thanks to grandma exam.
"Grandma, I don't know how you can see it? But what did I do wrong, you just..." Du Xuechun bowed his hand at the grandma respectfully, and asked humbly.
"Oh, my child, neither! It's because my grandmother just saw you and this young man behave too intimately, and your body is thin and small, which makes me think more.
By the way, in the future, no matter who reveals your identities, you must not panic. The first reaction is not to look at each other first and look surprised, but to hold steady no matter how panicked you are. Angrily, and in turn asked why someone said that.
Just now, grandma, I also saw your faces astonished, which confirmed my conjecture even more. Child, can you remember? "
The old grandma reminded Du Xuechun very kindly, and also pulled the belt that was tied to Du Xuechun's waist to loosen it. Then she saw that the waist was not so thin. Although it was loose, it was more like that.
"Yeah! Grandma, thank you, we remembered it! If it weren't for your reminder, we would have realized it later! We might be found out when it was time, but at that time it would be the case!"
Du Xuechun smiled at the grandmother, and hurriedly helped her to her side, because just now a few people rushed past them and almost bumped into the grandmother. Fortunately, Du Xuechun's eyesight was quick and she helped her over. , So as not to be hit by others.
The old grandmother looked at the crowd beside her, let out a long sigh of relief, turned around and looked at Du Xuechun charityly and said:
"Child, you can see that you are a good boy. Grandma looked at you for the first time and she was very happy. That's why she is willing to tell you so many things. You don't dislike grandma and I'm verbose."
Feng Xuanche on the side almost sighed without holding his forehead after hearing what the old grandma said. The popularity of Chun'er is so good. Anyone who has met her, whether old or young, will like her?
But how can I feel happy after no one looked at it for the first time?
Just as Feng Xuan Che was muttering helplessly to himself, Feng Xuan Che raised his head and saw several women in their 30s not far away, who were shyly casting interesting glances in his direction. When Feng Xuan Che saw their faces clearly, Feng Xuan Che's scalp was numb, and he turned his head to one side quickly, restraining himself and pretending that he could not see anything.
However, Du Xuechun was completely unaware of Feng Xuanche's strangeness, and was chatting with the old grandmother with excitement, and chatting about the group of hungry people in front of them, Feng Xuanche stood aside and listened carefully. stand up.
"Grandma, why are they all gathered by this river? What's so magical about this river?"
Du Xuechun glanced at the crowd not far away curiously, turned her head quickly, looked at the grandma in front of him, and asked respectfully.
"This! Actually, there is nothing magical about this river. You should have looked at it just now. The water is still clear." Seeing Du Xuechun's curiosity, the old grandmother had to answer Du Xuechun's question and slowly explain stand up.
"Yeah? Could it be that there are fish in this small river? Are they fishing for fish?"
Du Xuechun was aroused for knowledge in an instant, her eyes widened, and she looked at the grandmother nervously, but the grandmother smiled and shook her head at Du Xuechun, and slowly explained:
"No, if it was said that they came here to fish for fish in the past, it is true, but nowadays, the big fishes in this river, whether they are big fish or small fish, are all caught by the big guys.
Now, there are no edible animals in this river, only the crystal clear water.
The reason why they surround this small river is that it is not easy to drink a sip of water because of the drought, and the other is that this river is the source of life for our big guys! That's why we stay here, not going anywhere. "
"The source of life?"
After hearing what the old grandma said, Du Xuechun was even more puzzled. If she said that the water could ensure that they would not die of thirst, she could still understand, but could it be that they ate, drank and slept beside this small river?
"Yes, this river can always bring us food so that we will not starve to death!"
The old grandma closed her eyes and sighed softly, with a deep sadness in her tone.
