Episode 177: Offended Someone

Fire Knife Village was extremely dry during the winter days, and it hadn't rained for more than half a month. The dried grass in the fields was blown by the wind and baked by the sun daily, devoid of any trace of moisture. If you picked up a handful and broke it, it would make a crisp "crack" sound. At this moment, licked by the flames, it spread the raging fire around like madness.

The threshing ground was quite far from the river, so fetching water from there was clearly impractical. Feng Dame's two sons had already run back and forth between the fields and home twice, and the daughters-in-law had also rushed to help, carrying all the water-holding utensils they could find in their homes and pouring them aimlessly onto the fire.
