“You’ve been staring at this metal thing for so long? What is there to see, isn’t it just an old water pump?” Wen Wen saw that there was no one around so he didn’t hide his form.
Su Mian ignored him, but suddenly her eyes lit up, “Can you help me out?”
Su Mian rarely looked at him so mischievously, Wen Wen immediately hugged his body and asked, “You’re not asking me to sell my body or something, are you?”
Su Mian rolled her eyes at him and pinched his furry ear a few times, “As a fox, your thoughts are so dirty!”
Hmph, Wen Wen thought that it was hard not to think of that with the look she showed him just now, “Just say it, I’ll see if I could help you out.”
Su Mian was just trying out her idea, she didn’t know if it would work, “Can you direct the water in the tower space out from the mouth of this pump?” Su Mian thought that her idea was rather unusual, but she couldn’t think of anything else.
Now, all the groundwater in Fu An was undrinkable and the water supply was cut off, it would take more than a week to recover it.
Wen Wen jumped the moment he heard this and pointed his claw at her, “What, you want to draw the Lingquan water out to the outside world?”
Oh, was the water from the stream called the Lingquan water? Su Mian nodded seriously, “I know that that puts you in a difficult position, but now there’s no other way, if the rescue team has no clean drinking water they will contract dysentery, and also I, your master, would have to drink water too.”
But you could go into the tower space yourself for water?
Hmph, Wen Wen turned his back against Su Mian and considered it.
It must be for that man! This woman would do anything for love, did she know how precious the Lingquan water was?
Su Mian walked in front of him to face him, “Didn’t the grandmaster say that medical skills should be used to help humans? Now we are not using medical skills but just a little water…” She saw that he was getting angry and immediately corrected her words, “It is just a little precious Lingquan water to save lives, isn’t it better?”
Hmph, Wen Wen decided to make a big bargain, “2000 kindness points.”
Su Mian pretended to be reluctant but agreed eventually. The truth was, she would have agreed even if he asked for 20000 points, let alone 2000.
Wen Wen suspected that he asked for too little, everytime he haggled with this woman, she only hesitated for a short while before agreeing.
He flicked away Su Mian’s hand that was holding onto his sleeve, of course the remaining work had to be done by him as a mythical beast, how could he depend on his master who was hopelessly in love?
Wen Wen walked around the water pump tinkering around for half an hour. Finally he said reluctantly, “Try it.”
Su Mian ran over excitedly. She knew how to operate this type of pump, one only had to push down the metal handle and water should come out of the mouth.
Su Mian pressed it a few times and asked suspiciously, “There’s no water?”
“You have to first use water to draw out the Lingquan water.”
“Oh!” Su Mian had forgotten how to use it after many years. She disappeared after a flash.
It was pitch black, she went into the tower space to get water. After filling a half bucketful of water, she poured it into the pump, then she pushed the handle a few times and water flowed out of the mouth.
Su Mian was very excited, she filled some water in her palm and smelled it, “It really is the Lingquan water!”
Wen Wen was annoyed at her silly look and flicked his sleeve, “Remember the 2000 kindness points.” Then he went back into the tower space.
