"It's hot, scorching hot, why is the ground so blistering? The sun isn't even that fierce!"
"Daddy, I'm thirsty, I want to drink water... We can't get any water from the well!"
"Then go fetch water from the river! Bao'er, go call your dad, get some buckets, and head over to the river to fetch water!"
"But old man, the river is so far from here, by the time we get back, half of it will have evaporated along the way!"
"What can we do? We have to fetch water, at least we can drink half a bucket. If we don't, we won't get a drop! Go, go, call the eldest, quickly!"
"..."
Duanmu Nan and his two companions saw more and more of these scenes as they traveled toward Guyang County.
At this moment, as they walked on the ground, they could feel a slight burning sensation underfoot, it was the ground's temperature!
"Before this, only the water temperature would rise, I didn't expect even the land here to heat up!"
Yun Jin squatted down, touched the ground, and showed a shocked expression.
