Chapter 299: That Woman Is His Weakness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

It was already very impressive to be able to get water in the desert! Cui Shize said excitedly, “How do we make a water collector? Is it complicated?”

Bai Wutong shook her head. “It’s very simple. All you need is a piece of non-water-absorbing satin, a container, and a hole.”

Cui Shize widened his eyes in disbelief. “It’s that simple?’

Bai Wutong nodded. “Yes, it uses the principle of condensation.”

“Condensation?’

“The sun will make the surface water evaporate,” explained Bai Wutong. “Our homemade water collector is equivalent to the principle of collecting the vapor that evaporates in the air.’

Although he had never heard of this principle, Bai Wutong’s explanation was very simple. Cui Shize understood it immediately.

…..
He couldn’t wait to see how to make his own water collector. “Madam Bai, should we get everyone to prepare now?”

Bai Wutong nodded. “Sure. I’ll teach you immediately.”

Cui Shize sent his servants to inform the others. Bai Wutong was about to inform You Huaijie to discuss with Meng Shan about getting some water. When she turned around, she met Chu Tianbao’s complicated eyes.

Bai Wutong smiled at him. ‘What’s wrong?”

Chu Tianbao suddenly grabbed her hand tightly, as though afraid that she would disappear suddenly. “Will you leave me?”

He had long sensed Bai Wutong’s magical ability. He had never asked her the reason because he was afraid that if he exposed her, she would suddenly disappear forever like some things at home.

Sensing Chu Tianbao’s uneasiness, Bai Wutong squeezed his palm. “No, I’ll always be with you.”

Chu Tianbao wanted to kiss her, but she stopped him. “However, if you dare to fool around, that might not be the case.”

Chu Tianbao immediately puffed out his chest and promised, “1 won’t, never!” He was afraid that she wouldn’t believe him.

Bai Wutong laughed at his nervous look. “Yes, I believe you.”

You Huaijie had received instructions from Bai Wutong to find Meng Shan and ask for some well water.

Meng Shan did not want to agree at first, but he thought that it was better to have some water than to be threatened with his head if they became anxious. So he nodded and agreed.

You Huaijie got someone to carry the water away, but Meng Shan found it strange. There were so many of them. How were they going to survive with this little water?

He felt an inexplicable sense of guilt.

He brought his men and quietly approached. Just as he saw that the Central Plains people were constantly digging holes in the ground as if they were digging water, a dark guard descended from the sky and placed a sharp sword on his neck.

Meng Shan trembled in fear and hurriedly said, “I’m just here to take a look. I don’t have any other intentions.”

The dark guard didn’t let go of his sword until You Huaijie came over.

Meng Shan, who felt that he had his life saved, became familiar with You Huaijie. “Are you digging water? How can you dig water like this? Our ancestors have only dug this well for hundreds of years. You should give up.”

You Huaijie glanced at him coldly. Meng Shan was frightened by his gaze and stuttered, “If you can’t dig up water, I won’t give you any more water. If I give you more, we won’t have enough to drink.”

You Huaijie looked at him again and explained in surprise, “We’re not digging for water.”

Meng Shan was stunned. ‘Then what are you doing? You can’t be digging a hole to bury yourself now, right?’ Even if they wanted to bury themselves, they had to go further away. It would be scary if they died here.

Unexpectedly, You Huaijie wasn’t angry with him. He said, ‘We’re collecting water.”

“Collect water?” Meng Shan was stunned. “Ah, you also know how to collect water? Who taught you to collect water by digging pits on the ground? Silly!”

As soon as Meng Shan finished speaking, he felt a chill on the back of his neck. He subconsciously said, “If there’s really no water on the road, you can look around for trees or rocks. Usually, there will be dew in the morning. You can use a water-absorbing cloth to absorb it and collect some dew.” After saying that, he sighed. ‘There are so many of you, but you don’t seem to be doing well. However, it’s good to even save a person. You’re quite unlucky to be brought here by the dog emperor.”

In the past, they had really run out of water on the way to the southern frontier and had relied on this method to collect dew to drink.

Meng Shan felt that his method was much better than digging a hole like them.

However, Bai Wutong, who was called a fool, felt that Meng Shan was quite kind. She gestured for You Huaijie to continue the principle of the water collector.

The water collector could collect a small cup of water every night. A small cup could guarantee that one would not die of thirst for a day. It was much better than the method that Meng Shan was proud of.

You Huaijie said, “We use a water collector.”

“Water collector?” Meng Shan was confused again. He asked subconsciously,

“How much water can it collect?’

You Huaijie said, “One glass.”

Meng Shan immediately laughed and said, “The small wine cup that you Han people use? Hahaha, alright, you guys take care.”

You Huaijie said, “It’s a big cup.”

Meng Shan did not believe that the Central Plains people had such a powerful method.

If there had been one before, the southern frontier would not have been taken down so many years ago.

However, he was also very curious and wanted to see with his own eyes if You Huaijie was bragging.

He followed You Huaijie into the group. He saw that someone had dug a pit and put it in a small bamboo tube.

This bamboo tube was a bamboo tube. It did not look like a water collector at all.

Meng Shan looked incredulous. He even suspected that these people were crazy from being thirsty. He asked Village Chief Zhao, “Is this your water collector?’

Village Chief Zhao nodded. ‘That’s right.”

Meng Shan immediately revealed an expression that seemed to be saying, “That’s it? That’s it? Do you think I’m a fool?”

It was impossible to collect water!

He couldn’t be bothered to see what Village Chief Zhao was going to do next. He ran away without much interest, afraid that You Huaijie would catch him and ask him for water again.

Everyone set up the water collector, ate some dry food, and prepared to sleep.

Suddenly, a flame flew straight towards Bai Wutong’s carriage.

Qingfeng pulled out her sword and cut the rocket into two.

The team immediately screamed in fear.

Immediately after, a few more rockets shot towards the carriage.

Their target was still the carriage.

Just as Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao got out of the carriage, another rocket shot straight at Bai Wutong.

Although the arrow was stopped by the dark guard, Chu Tianbao was enraged. He took the crossbow handed over by Bai Wutong and aimed at the black-robed man who was about to shoot the next arrow.

With a swoosh, the man in black fell head first.

Feng Yue, who was staying motionless in the dark, saw that their best archer had been easily killed by Chu Tianbao. She said anxiously, “Brother, what should we do?! We can’t lure him out at all.”

Feng Xun did not expect Chu Tianbao to kill someone even in the dark.

Fortunately, he had made other preparations. With a wave of his hand, more lurking archers shot at Bai Wutong again.

After his observation, he had long understood that the woman beside Chu Tianbao was his weakness.

As long as this woman ‘s life was in danger, he would definitely chase after them to avenge her.

At that time, their ambush would be useful..
