Legend of the Dragon God
Ch. 85 – Water Difficulty.

“What might I have to bring everyone in this village to move recklessly,” muttered an old man seeing the entry of the men into the village.

Not long after, a man came towards the old man and sat down next to him.

“Even, the current condition of the river is not in our favor. What should we do next?” asked the man beside him, the elder of the desert village.

“You know, I was thinking about a plan to bring everyone in this village ...

to move to the ice area. Looking at those children's cries, it felt like the peace I've been building all these years, was like being torn to shreds.” The Village Elder sighed for a moment, “Added ... In addition to the absence of supplies, the Desert Crocodile also continues to threaten our lives, you know it is difficult to think of a solution when a situation like this ..”

The Village Elder rubbed his watery eyes, he could not help but cry at the suffering of his own citizens.

“Tua ..” The man looked at his Village Elder for quite a while. Just this time he saw her crying, whereas since two years ago when the village was still crowded. Not even a single cry was present in the eyes of the Elders of his Village.

After being quite calm, the Village Elder started talking back.

“Sorry, I'm too lamenting this condition. My old age is not enough to find a solution for you guys .. Suppose there is a miracle,” muttered the Village Elder slowly while staring at the scorching afternoon sky. He was secretly expecting a helper for this village.

The man beside her also stared at this scorching afternoon sky, it felt so soul-soothing.

Return to Liu Chang. As Chiriyu said seeing a stake tower, Liu Chang immediately stopped his flight, he floated for a moment to confirm what Chiriyu said.

“We're going there? It could be just an iron from the building left behind.” Liu Chang gave his argument.

“No, I'm sure. It could be a village, or if lucky we will find a city there,” said Chiriyu reassured.

Finally after careful thought, Liu Chang moved towards the pile tower. Previously Salazar had been told to follow him, so Liu Chang could calm down.

“Nona Aqua, hang on a little more. Liu Chang and Chiriyu found a village.” Salazar slightly motivated Aqua who was about to faint, in her arms.

Hearing Salazar's words, Aqua immediately responded with vigor, “True? That's good news, this hot taste is in stark contrast to the climate of the Eve.” Valley

Salazar smiled faintly at the sight of a smile re-expanding on the girl's lips, at least there was happiness that appeared even though Salazar only gave Aqua an uncertain information.

Liu Chang stopped flying when he had seen the stake tower closer. Liu Chang frowned while Chiriyu held her breath.

In front of them at this time, was not a stake tower from the city or village but just an iron stick that had the nameplate of a village called Yuku.

“What is this mirage? I sure saw a big building back then.” Chiriyu closed her mouth in disbelief, after taking a closer look.

“This is not a mirage. We did see an iron stuck in a poor village. We wait for Salazar and Aqua, then we enter the village.” Liu Chang landed not far from the village after saying so.

Long enough for the two to wait, footsteps that had been weak were heard approaching. Salazar and Aqua appear from behind the sand dunes.

“Please Aqua!! He was unconscious!!” Salazar immediately shouted to see Liu Chang and Chiriyu.

While beside him, Liu Chang saw that Salazar was in such a bad state, his body was dehydrated. Even when Liu Chang asked for the reason, Salazar only replied with a murmur, as if all his last strength had been exerted as he shouted earlier.

After making a simple tent from the wooden sticks around him, Liu Chang asked Chiriyu to take care of Aqua.

“Salazar, drink this. Although this is arak but the alcohol content is so little. Pretty similar to air.” Liu Chang approached Salazar who was sitting limply outside the tent and handed him an urn. However Chiriyu who heard that immediately stopped Liu Chang.

“Water is different from wine, Brother. We can't give him this.” Chiriyu took the urn.

“Chiriyu, we have no other choice. I only have two water jars in the Galactic Ring, one of which has been given to Aqua, while the rest is just this.” Liu Chang explained slowly. After a long time Chiriyu finally understood, Salazar agreed.

After Salazar's condition improved slightly after drinking the wine, Liu Chang asked him to guard the tent with Chiriyu. Liu Chang said he would try to find something in Yuki Village.

A few minutes later Liu Chang arrived in front of the entrance of Yuki Village, the state of the village was even worse than Liu Chang had imagined. Not a few house buildings in Yuki Village that have collapsed even flat to the ground.

“I-this ... a village? I think there's one or two restaurants in this village. The tower was apparently in accordance with its function.” Liu Chang was quite surprised by the condition of the village. He looked at the stake that he had previously seen with Chiriyu, its function was indeed only as a nameplate.

Not long after, an old man who introduced himself was the Village Elder welcoming Liu Chang. His body looks only bone wrapped in skin. Liu Chang noticed quite compassionately, before finally following him into the village.

Seeing Liu Chang's arrival, one by one people started to come out of his house. They thought Liu Chang was a person from the government because Liu Chang's clothes were quite luxurious as well as Liu Chang's emitting an aura of nobility.

“Master, give us water and food to live. One day does not matter, my son has not eaten from yesterday.” A middle-aged woman limply, came and knelt before Liu Chang followed by a few more people behind him.

Liu Chang only smiled faintly and said he was not a person from the Beigan government. He's just here to find something to replenish his supplies.

“Well, forgive our disrespect. We think you're the guy from the Beigan government.” The middle-aged woman apologized followed by a few others. Although disappointed but his attitude still respect Liu Chang.

The Village Elder then took Liu Chang towards the village hall. Although the state of Yuki Village was not possible, but Liu Chang was amazed that this village still maintained the condition of their village hall.

“Tell me what you want! If you give us money, we will reject it,” said the Village Elder firmly. In these conditions, money is not one main thing anymore as he said.

“I understand, Elder. Shortly after seeing the condition of your village ..” Liu Chang looked around him, seen the men staring at him dislikely, “Maybe I can get some water from your well.”

As Liu Chang's words immediately enraged the men around him, how could it be possible to ask for water while we ourselves were lacking? So were the thoughts of all the men around Liu Chang.

The Village Elder immediately controlled the situation again, “Relax, my brothers.”

The Village Elder then looked at Liu Chang back, “I understand you need that water, but our well has been dry for the past few months, while the rain has not fallen for this one year. Hope you understand.” The Village Elder closed his explanation.

Liu Chang nodded slowly, he then walked out of the hall of Yuki Village. And returned to his tent where Chiriyu and the others had been waiting for him.
