Digging a Well

Winston's body tensed as he stiffly bent over.

"Wasn't it said that the water in the lake had dried up? Get them to dig a hole in the center of the river, the deeper the better."

"Mm?" Winston cocked his head sideways and glanced at Bai Qingqing with a perplexed look.

Bai Qingqing explained softly, "The mud in the bottom of the river has water content. Once the hole is dug deep enough, water will surely seep in."

Winston's eyes spun quickly in their sockets for a bit. The more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt the idea was. He gazed at Bai Qingqing agitatedly, a scorching hot glint in his eyes.

Embarrassed from being stared at, Bai Qingqing retreated a step.

He's making it seem like I'm very smart or something. Actually… it's just that you beastmen are too unintelligent! We humans dig wells everywhere, and there has never been a deliberate need to publicize this method.
