Escape to Farmland

Chapter 172 The Appearance of Ningjiawan
The children's questions are always so simple and interesting.

Xia Quan patiently answered them one by one, and asked them some simple questions by the way.

She found that in front of these children, Xia Huan always had a bright smile on his face inadvertently.

Knowing that his younger brother had a great time playing with them, Xia Quan was secretly relieved.

"Call work~~~"

Xia Quan sister and brother were playing with the Ningjiawan children when they suddenly heard such a high-pitched shout from the top of the mountain.

Following the sound, I saw villagers working in different plots packed up their furniture and came out of the field.

The long work team walked on the winding path, forming a simple landscape.

"Stop playing, my parents are coming back."

One of the children got up and ran towards Wanzi...

"Xia Quan, Xia Huan, we will come to play with you after school tomorrow."

"I'm going home too."

The first child's reaction triggered a chain reaction.

One by one, they bid farewell to the Xia Quan siblings and left.

Xia Quan: "Slow down, be careful not to fall."

"Don't worry, we can run back on this road with our eyes closed."

Hearing Ning Dexiang's voice coming from afar, Xia Quan couldn't help laughing.

The little guy who is a few years old is not afraid to flash his tongue when he says such big words.

"elder sister."

Xia Huan looked at his sister beside him with anticipation in his eyes.

"Come on, let's take a look at the front and back of our house."

She took her brother's little hand and walked to the right of her house.

From yesterday to now, their siblings have not bothered to observe the surrounding environment.

Taking advantage of the fact that there are no outsiders at home, she wants to get a clear idea of ​​the terrain around her house.

"Well, here..."

Around the corner, there are five or six steps in the upper right corner of her house.

The siblings climbed up the stairs, and saw a big pit about 450 meters square and two or three meters deep in front of them.

If she read correctly, this should be a pond of saliva.

pity……

After more than two years of drought, the pond has long run out of water, and it has become a big dry pit like it is today.

"Sister, what is this place for?"

Xia Huan had obviously never seen such a terrain, and asked her curiously, "It doesn't look like a river, nor a stream."

"When the weather is good, this is a pond for storing water."

Xia Quan took a deep breath, raised his eyes and looked around the pond...

Her home is in the lower right corner of the pond, and Ningjia Bay is directly above the pond.

Behind the bay is a low mountain that half surrounds it.

The houses of the residents are built along the mountain, and more than [-] families form the appearance of a grand master's chair.

This layout looks very comfortable.

There is also a flat stone dam between the house and the pond, which can be used to dry clothes or food.

There is a dense bamboo forest growing between the mountain like a chair and the houses.

Even though the water shortage is severe, the bamboo is still lush and green.

When the wind blows, the bamboo leaves will rustle, which is very pleasant.

"There's no water in the pond."

Xia Huan muttered, "Just like the rivers we saw along the way, there is no water."

Hearing his younger brother's muttering, Xia Quan looked back at him: "You should have seen that the crack in the land here is not that big."

"Uh-huh."

Xia Huan nodded vigorously, blinked and looked at her expectantly, "Sister means..."

"I mean, it can be seen from this that the lack of water in this place is not that serious."

Pointing to the lush bamboo forest around the house, Xia Quan said, "Look, have we seen such green plants before we came here?"
