Chapter 578: Five hundred seventy-seven, fetching water

Song Yan Ning handed a bucket of water to the man, "What did you just say we couldn’t do?"

"You... you can actually lift a bucket of water?" The man looked at Song Yan Ning holding the bucket with a look of disbelief.

"Can’t one lift a bucket of water?" Song Yan Ning was even more curious.

The man nodded, "Here at Shuimu Lake, one can only fetch water every three days, and each person can only get one-third of a bucket each time. Even if you want more, you can’t get it." That’s why he was so surprised.

"But I just got a whole bucket of water," Song Yan Ning also found it very strange.

The man took the bucket from Song Yan Ning’s hands, hesitated for a moment, "I’ll take the water home first, then later you can help me get another bucket." He originally wanted to empty the bucket and let Song Yan Ning try again, but he didn’t dare, fearing that once this bucket was poured out, no more water could be fetched.

"We’ll come with you," the three followed the man to his home. noveldrama

"My name is Ah Pin, what are your names?" Ah Pin was very happy now. Usually, his family had to come out together to get this much water, but today he managed to carry back a whole bucket by himself. His parents would surely be delighted.

"I’m Song Yan Ning, he is Qin Yushen, and this is Mie Yu," Song Yan Ning introduced her companions.

"Nice to meet you all, why don’t you stay in our village? I’ll talk to the village chief and see if we can allocate some land for you," said Ah Pin. The village chief was his uncle, and he was sure his uncle would agree.

"We still have things to do, we’ll leave in a few days," Song Yan Ning said. They had come to this world to find her parents and brothers, how could they possibly settle here?

"Are you looking for a way out?" Ah Pin led Song Yan Ning and the others to a small village, "This is our village, and that’s my house."

Ah Pin pointed to a small bungalow not far away.

"Mm," Elder Mie Yu nodded in response. Once they found the Demon King and Demon Queen, they would leave this world.

Ah Pin shook his head, "I advise you to give up." He had already told them before, this world could only be entered, not exited. If they truly wanted to find a way out, they would end up like most people who searched for an exit, ultimately perishing in the vast desert.

"Ah Pin, you’re back." Seeing Ah Pin carrying a bucket of water, Ah Pin’s father approached him joyfully, "Who are they?" he asked, looking at Song Yan Ning and her companions.

"They’re my friends; I met them at Shuimu Lake. Look, they even helped me fetch a bucket of water," Ah Pin swung the bucket he was holding.

Ah Pin’s father looked at the bucket in Ah Pin’s hands, and seeing it truly filled with water, his face immediately showed delight, "A whole bucket of water, how did you manage to get it?" He had lived here for decades and this was the first time he saw someone manage to fetch a full bucket from Shuimu Lake. It appeared that the three strangers were no ordinary people.

"We’re not sure ourselves," Song Yan Ning didn’t know when fetching the water that one couldn’t get a full bucket from Shuimu Lake.

"Then could you possibly help us fetch another bucket?" Ah Pin’s father looked at Song Yan Ning and her friends with a hopeful expression. They could only fetch water from Shuimu Lake once every three days, and their family of three could at most get a bucket each time, which was hardly enough. If they could get a bit more water, he wouldn’t have to worry about running out.

Song Yan Ning nodded her head. She also wanted to know if she could still manage to fetch another bucket of water.
