Captain Zhang saw Zhou Xiaochuan coming, and hurried forward for a while.

"Comrade Xiao Chuan, you are finally here!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hands.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan jumped off the donkey cart and stretched out his hands in a hurry.

"Captain Zhang, you are too polite, we are all promoting production. For the sake of the masses!"

Flower sedan chairs are carried by people.

Give you face, you also have to give others face!

Captain Zhang smiled and nodded: "Hey, hey, it's all the same, it's all the same."

After speaking, he began to introduce the two people around him.

One is Li Futian, the accountant of the Xizhuang production team, and the other is Zhang Dagang, the captain of the militia.

Both were around forty years old, wearing sheepskin jackets and white headscarves.

Zhou Xiaochuan greeted him with a smile, and then subconsciously looked at Zhang Dagang next to him.

The other party has a Chinese character face, with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan's expression, he thought he knew the previous Wang Xiuwen, Captain Zhang sighed and said: "The previous Captain Wang passed away, this is the new militia captain."

"Oh, I'm still wondering, I saw him last time!"

Hearing what he said, Captain Zhang waved his hand, "Forget it, let's not talk about it, you haven't eaten! Let's go to the production team to get something to eat first."

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head, "I came here after breakfast, take me to the neighborhood to have a look!"

Captain Zhang thought for a while, then nodded.

Then the four of them walked up the mountain.

Go to the village first.

The layout is similar to that of the Shanglin production team, all relying on cave dwellings dug on the hillside.

Regardless of the number of cave dwellings, the number of people is estimated to be more than that of the Shanglin production team.

Passing by the door of Wang Xiuwen's house, Zhou Xiaochuan took a look, because after the first seven days, there was no trace of the funeral from the outside.

In the yard was a woman in her forties who was weaving straw sandals.

When passing by the door, Captain Zhang greeted the inside, "Xiaoju, where are you weaving straw sandals?"

Hearing this, the other party raised his head and smiled, "Oh, it's Captain Zhang! It's going to be hot soon! Weave a few pairs of shoes for the dolls to wear. What are you doing?"

Captain Zhang nodded when he heard the words, "We have something to do, you should be busy! Let's go."

"Hey, okay!"

Then several people left from the gate of the yard.

Zhou Xiaochuan paid attention, the other party didn't see much sadness from his face.

But why did he have the nerve to ask.

Captain Zhang saw Zhou Xiaochuan's gaze, and explained: "This is Wang Xiuwen's home. Now there are only three mothers left."

"oh!"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, he still felt a little guilty at this moment.

Not to Wang Xiuwen.

But to the mother three.

Zhang Dagang next to him saw Zhou Xiaochuan's expression.

I thought he was showing sympathy and regret.

He smiled and said, "Comrade Xiao Chuan, you don't know! Wang Xiuwen's death is actually his wife who is most relieved."

Zhou Xiaochuan was puzzled when he heard the words, "What do you mean?"

"Oh, the land here used to belong to Xiaoju's father. When the land was distributed, he forcibly occupied her, and even beat her when she had nothing to drink. Her father-in-law was lost by him."

After finishing speaking, he continued: "As for the two missing female Zhiqing and him in the production team..."

"cough…"

Zhang Dagang's words were interrupted by the coughing sound of Captain Zhang next to him.

Zhang Dagang smiled awkwardly upon hearing this, and did not speak again.

Zhou Xiaochuan understood after hearing the words.

Just like the red boy in Journey to the West back then, he was lawless and superior. (Can you understand?)

This kind of thing is very common in rural areas.

As the name suggests, it can be better transformed.

That being the case, he didn't think too much about it. If Wang Xiuwen didn't die, more people would be hurt.

Several people wandered around the village.

He found the only well in the village with only a small amount of muddy water in it.

The kind that can barely go down the barrel.

But he took a look, and it seemed that only this place in the village had the highest water level, and there were no other good places.

It must have been done by digging a lot of wells back then.

Or it was pointed out by an expert.

After wandering around the village for a long time, he decided to look north.

"Captain Zhang, the village has seen it, let's go over there and have a look!"

When speaking, he pointed to the north and said.

Because according to the direction of the underground river of the Shanglin production team, it should be possible to encounter this side only in the north.

Captain Zhang hesitated and asked, "What about this? Is it possible to drill a good well?"

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head.

Seeing his actions, Captain Zhang sighed, and could only say helplessly: "That's fine, let's go over there and have a look!"

Then the four of them prepared to head north.

Seeing that Captain Zhang was about to go down the mountain, he walked on the main road.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought for a while, and suggested to look over there from the hillside.

Although he was a bit puzzled, Captain Zhang agreed, "Comrade Xiaochuan, it's not easy to go from here!"

"It's okay, there's nothing wrong with it anyway."

What he meant was the place between the two hills, see if there is water, logically there should be!

It's less than a kilometer from here.

It takes only ten minutes to walk.

Captain Zhang nodded upon hearing this, and could only follow behind.

Walking on the road, Zhou Xiaochuan has been watching and observing. There are indeed some places nearby where wells can be dug, but they are only a little better than the wells just now.

better than nothing.

The road was not easy to walk. After walking for more than 20 minutes, I came to the intersection between two small hills.

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled.

It seems that my guess is really right!

The old saying is good: There is one hole between two mountains, and the middle is not dry. There is a ditch between two ridges, and the water flows along the side of the ditch.

There is still water.

It's just that the water here is not an underground river, but permeable groundwater.

But drilling a good well is no problem.

Looking at the terrain, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled at Captain Zhang and said, "Captain Zhang, a well can be drilled here. Then build a road to come here."

Captain Zhang hesitated for a while when he heard Zhou Xiaochuan's words.

"I've been here before, but there are rocks underneath, so I didn't hit it!"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words. He naturally saw two half-drilled abandoned wells beside him.

It's just that the inside was filled with soil again, leaving only a half-person-high hole.

But since he said it, he was sure of it.

Don't lose sight of what's going on underneath, you can only guess blindly.

But can he do the same?

He thought about walking down a few steps, looking left and right, and drew for a long time.

Then he pointed to one of the places and said, "Here it is!"

After speaking, he thought about the distance with his feet and measured a distance with his feet.

Then, under the doubts of Captain Zhang and the others, he took out a piece of paper and pen from his backpack, and wrote and drew there.

The drawing is naturally a triangle.

You can't rely entirely on superstition, you have to rely on science.

After a while, he handed the drawn triangle drawings to Captain Zhang.

Captain Zhang took the paper and was looking at it, anyway.

Finally, he handed the paper to the next accountants Li Futian and Zhang Dagang.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan explained to several people there: “The distance from here to the **** is about 14 meters, and the **** is 30 degrees. You can see water between eight meters."

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, Captain Zhang and the others, you look at me, I look at you.

Captain Zhang asked the accountant Li Futian: "You are literate, do you understand?"

Li Futian shook his head in embarrassment when he heard the words, "I can read, but I only went to elementary school! How could I understand!"

Hearing Li Futian's words, Captain Zhang complained, "Your studies are for nothing."

Li Futian next to him rolled his eyes.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at several people with a smile on the side.

It’s just that a few people can’t understand it, and feel that this thing is tall, but it’s actually just a triangle to find the side length.

Don't be said to be looking for dragon acupuncture points.

Captain Zhang returned the paper in his hand to Zhou Xiaochuan, and said with a smile: "We don't understand what you said, just tell us where to dig to get water, and it doesn't matter how deep we dig."

The other two nodded their heads in approval.

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, folded a branch from the side, and inserted it in the center.

"From here, dig down about two feet and two, and at most it will not exceed two feet and five."

Captain Zhang hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I understand, let's put this one away first. Let's go and look at the others."

See his expression.

Zhou Xiaochuan understood, probably because the abandoned well was dug here, so few people didn't quite believe it.

Without saying anything, they continued to walk towards the north.

After half an hour, several people came to the farmland of the Xizhuang production team.

It is also very lively here.

Like the Shanglin production team, they are busy digging the ground and preparing for the spring planting.

It's just that there are fewer livestock here.

So people use the most primitive methods, shovels and row shovels to turn the land there.

I saw the man standing on the shovel, stepping down hard, and standing on it to chop.

When the rakes on the row shovel go down to a certain position, people hold the wooden handle and fall backwards.

The row shovel is to shovel down a large piece of earth.

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look. This thing is probably the fastest tool for digging besides livestock. It's just that this thing needs a certain amount of strength to move.

"Big, what are you doing?"

In the crowd, a young man yelled at Captain Zhang.

"Go do your job! Don't worry about doing so much!"

"Hey, why don't I just ask!"

After that, it was convenient to continue working.

In the crowd, there were a few weak-looking youths who looked at Zhou Xiaochuan curiously.

Captain Zhang is the leader of the production team.

The other two are also important figures in the team.

It must be a big deal to have these three people by their side.

These people are the same as Zhou Xiaochuan, Zhiqing from other places.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked around and shook his head at Captain Zhang. "There's nothing suitable here."

Afterwards, several people walked towards the north again.

After walking for nearly an hour, Captain Zhang and the others were already impatient.

Zhou Xiaochuan stopped.

After looking back and forth many times around, he finally fell into deep thought.

Captain Zhang looked anxiously at Zhou Xiaochuan's expression, "Comrade Xiaochuan, what do you say? You found it?"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan frowned and nodded, then shook his head again.

Seeing his expression, Captain Zhang hurriedly asked: "What do you mean, you said it!"

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan didn't know how to explain.

The underground underground river has been found, and according to its location, it is estimated to be the one with the Shanglin production team. Here it is further upstream.

It's just that this position is too deep. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Nearly twenty meters away.

It is completely meaningless to find it, and the water cannot be drawn there at all.

He looked towards the way he came from, and then looked at the direction of the dark river. The angle between the two was thirty or forty degrees.

Did not return to Captain Zhang.

He was heading in the direction of the dark river.

Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said to Captain Zhang, "Captain Zhang, let's go over there and have a look."

When speaking, he pointed to the hill opposite the Xizhuang production team.

According to the angle, it is also the place where the dark river passes, and it is relatively close to the farmland.

Hearing this, Captain Zhang could only nod helplessly.
