It has been raining in the sky, and the thin raindrops falling on people are inconspicuous, but after a while, their clothes and hair are soaked, but no one cares about it.
As we walked further, the water level became deeper and deeper. At first we could still see the houses, but gradually we could only see the roofs. Many people were holding floating boards and swimming on the water. Some adults were pushing wooden basins and marching hard. Most of the children in the tub were crying loudly. When they saw the boats appearing, they all happily waved for help.
Cheng Wanwan remained silent and did not let the ship stop.
Because the assault boat is too small. It can only hold eight people on one boat. She can save this but not that. Moreover, she has more important things to do.
Madam Huang sat on the edge of the boat, pointed in one direction and said: "If we go forward a quarter of an hour, the water will be shallow. If you keep persisting, don't give up..."
People here can still survive by looking for driftwood, but their Sophora Flower Village is located downstream of the flood. The water is so strong that even if you hold a piece of wood, you will be washed away and drowned... She is worried about her man and the villagers, even if With little hope, she must take Sui Gongren to Sophora Flower Village...
The assault boat continued to move forward, and beyond that, there was an endless flood. You couldn't even see the roofs, let alone the people trying to survive.
From time to time, floating corpses float by...
Everyone's expressions were not very good, and they were extremely silent along the way, with only the sound of the wind blowing.
The water flooded the roads and roofs, and the government officials could not tell the direction at all, so they relied on Madam Huang to lead the way.
I don’t know how long I walked, but finally I saw a corner of the turret that had not yet been submerged.
Madam Huang looked desolate: "This is the tallest turret at the entrance of Qing'an County, but it was also submerged. Huaihua Village is over..."
There are still four to five hundred people who have not escaped. Are all these people dead?
Cheng Wanwan's fingers were clenched tightly together, and her heart was overwhelmed with panic. This was the first time since she came to this era that she felt that her power was slim.
Even if she has a system mall, even if she has many modern technology products, even if she takes them all out, she seems unable to withstand this massive natural disaster.
Mountain……
Don't let anything happen to you...
Cheng Wanwan suppressed the panic in his heart and said slowly: "Keep walking."
Madam Huang raised her hand and pointed to the southwest: "Sophora Flower Village is over there. We'll be there in a short walk."
Walking in this direction, the originally gentle water gradually became turbulent. Before, it took little effort to row the assault boat, and the speed was very fast. Now the speed gradually slowed down. After walking for almost half an hour, we finally arrived at Huaihua Village. , the house was submerged, and its original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
Cheng Wanwan looked to the southwest. Over there, there were continuous mountain peaks. The mountain peaks were in a southwest direction, coming from a distance, with no source visible.
The reason why Huaihua Village was hit the hardest was that it was too close to the mountain peak. Before anyone could react, a village was submerged, and all life seemed to be buried under the torrent.
Madam Huang covered her lips and cried.
"Don't cry..."
Cheng Wanwan suddenly spoke.
How dare Madam Huang not listen, she quickly swallowed back her cries.
The government officials who were discussing in detail immediately shut up.
The surrounding area became quiet, with only the sound of water and wind, and at the same time, the cry of children.
Cheng Wanwan raised his head and looked into the distance: "There's someone over there!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Cheng Jia asked the Yamen to row the boat and quickly approach in that direction.
Because this is a village, you can see many big swaying trees, but the water level is too high and only the thin treetops can be seen.
One of the treetops was swaying violently. After getting closer, you could clearly see a child hugging the top of the tree and crying loudly.
Under the child's buttocks, there were two hands holding it. The owner of those hands only exposed half of his head. He was a man in his twenties. He raised his head with difficulty, trying to find more air, but the water wave hit him. It covered his chin, then his lips, nose, and eyes... He shook his head desperately to shake off the waves, and tried to climb up with his free hand.
Every time he moves, the treetops bend a little... The thin treetops cannot bear the weight of an adult man...
"It's Yang Laosan!" Mrs. Huang cheered excitedly, "Yang Laosan and his youngest son are still alive. They are not dead. Suigong people, please save them..."
Even if she didn't say anything, Cheng Wanwan would still save people.
She touched in her sleeves, bought a rope from the mall, and quickly tied it to Cheng A and Cheng Yi's waist. The two of them jumped into the flood and swam towards the father and son hugging the treetops.
Yang Laosan thought he was going to die here. It would not matter if he died. The main reason was that his son was only five years old. If he died, how would his son live...
Maybe he didn't need to worry about this issue at all. His son probably wouldn't survive such a big flood.
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if father and son die together...
"Dad, a ship is coming!"
Yang Xiaoer shouted in surprise.
Yang Laosan smiled bitterly. Even if the court arranged a boat rescue, it would never be possible to reach their Huaihua Village like this. The disaster in Huaihua Village was too serious...
He looked at the swaying treetops and the turbid floods, sighed, and said slowly: "Son, you must live well, dad can only accompany you here..."
His hand slowly let go of his son's buttocks, and the other hand let go of the treetop. The two legs wrapped around the tree trunk also slowly lost their strength...
At this moment, someone grabbed his shoulders.
He turned back, his eyes filled with disbelief.
There is actually a boat!
Someone jumped into the water to save him!
His waist was wrapped with a rope, and soon after, his son was taken down from the tree with a rope wrapped around his body.
The people on the boat worked together to pull the rope and pulled them over. They quickly helped them onto the boat and put on the sacks they got from who knows where.
"Yang Laosan!" Madam Huang looked at him happily, "This is from Suigong. If Suigong hadn't brought someone to Huaihua Village, you and your son would have..."
Yang Laosan immediately held down his son and knelt down on the boat: "Thank you Suigong for saving your life. I am willing to repay Suigong like a cow..."
"You get up first." Cheng Wanwan said, "Tell me carefully, where are the other people in Huaihua Village?"
Yang Laosan raised his head and pointed to the peak in the southwest: "Everyone fled to the mountain..."
The flood came very quickly this time. When the water from the mountain first rushed down, no one in the village thought it was serious. He didn't take it seriously and continued to work in the fields.
However, as the water became more and more abundant, the fields and roads were soon submerged, and gradually the house was flooded. Only then did they realize the seriousness of the matter.
He remembered that when the water was not too strong, Huang Madam's man Huang Wei shouted to the villagers to escape quickly, but only a few people listened to Huang Wei's words and fled. As soon as those people escaped, the water flow instantly cut off the only way out of the village. That road...
Everyone rushed to Li Zheng's house to avoid the water, because Li Zheng's house was on the highest ground, but the floods kept coming, and Li Zheng's house couldn't hold on for long...
