"Whoosh whoosh-"
In the low-lying Shanxia Village, water began to accumulate in the farms. There were no drainage ditches in the yards, so the rainwater had no place to flow and began to pour into the houses.
The roofs of many villagers had been leaking all night. They finally waited for the rain to subside, but before they could relax, another heavy rain came.
It was raining heavily outside and light rain inside, and there was almost no place to stay.
"Oh my God! It was fine a few days ago, but it just happens when I say it, and it doesn't stop at once. This is not giving people a way to survive!"
"What to do! What to do! How can there be people living in the house!"
The sound of pouring rain covered up the sound of crying.
"Head of the house! Head of the house!"
The villagers who had gone to see the fields ran to the Li Chang's house and knocked on the door wildly: "It's bad, Li Chang! The river in the village is full and the fields are flooded!"
"What!"
When the village chief heard it, the fields were flooded, which was a big deal!
He quickly put on his raincoat and hurried to the fields.
After a night of heavy rain, water accumulated in the fields. When the river filled them, the fields turned into a vast ocean.
"I'm going to die!"
The chief was so anxious that he beat his chest and stamped his feet.
"Quickly! Find someone to expand the river channel and build the ditch!"
"There is no one to help! The roofs of each house are leaking, and the rainwater in the courtyard cannot be drained out. They are all pouring into the house, and they are busy scooping water out! What should we do?"
The director regretted it at this moment.
"Alas...why didn't those people who fled the famine listen to us when they told us about it? Alas..."
The villagers don't regret it. If I could go back in time, not only would I not laugh at the people of Hope Village, I would join them.
But now, looking at the river that is still rising, and all the crops that are submerged in the water, I feel regretful.
The rain is still falling.
It is hoped that everyone in the village, except the elderly and children, will leave their homes.
Although the drainage ditches were widened, rainwater washed sediment into the drainage ditches, resulting in slow drainage.
Everyone wore raincoats and wielded hoes to clear the drainage ditches in front of and behind the house and around the fields.
At this time, Shi Feng came to Xu Yin: "Village Chief! The bridge across the river is broken!"
What does a broken bridge mean?
People at the bottom of the mountain cannot escape.
Xu Yin looked at Shanxia Village from a distance and saw that their fields were flooded by the river, so she guessed that the situation inside the house was not much better.
If the rain continues, Shanxia Village is likely to be flooded.
Their only way to escape was up the mountain.
Detour through the wasteland to the Houshan Bamboo Forest. The bamboo forest is densely packed with bamboos and can provide shelter from the rain for a short period of time.
If that doesn't work, go to the mountain behind. There are many caves on the mountain.
Of course, if they have evil intentions, they may come to rob houses in Hope Village.
So Xu Yin asked Shi Feng to pay attention to the village at the foot of the mountain, and on the one hand, he would help, but on the other hand, he would also be on guard.
Unexpectedly, the bridge was broken...
People in Shanxia Village also found that the bridge was broken.
"They also said that the house can't withstand such a heavy rain, so we might as well go to a cave to hide from the rain. We can't cross the river now. What should we do..."
"It's so long, and the water is still coming up. The water in my house has risen to almost a foot high, and there's no place to hide!"
"Long..."
One after another, people were sent to the village chief to wait for him to make up his mind.
What can the mayor do? Although his house is made of bricks and tiles, the water keeps coming up, and his house can't bear it for long.
"Build a bridge and go up the mountain!"
Shanxia Village repaired the bridge in the rain.
After Xu Yin heard about it, she thought about it and asked Shi Feng to pull a cart of sandbags over.
"How long will it take to repair? The first priority is to go up the mountain to take shelter from the rain."
The sandbags hardened when exposed to water and were built into stepping stones for villagers to cross the river.
The people in Shanxia Village have mixed feelings.
"Our village chief is kind-hearted. When he learned that your village was flooded, he made a room for you to accommodate the elderly and children to avoid getting sick on the way up the mountain."
"Thank you very much!"
Xu Yin vacated the first three brick houses to temporarily accommodate the elderly and children in Shanxia Village.
Villagers are also allowed to store some heavy luggage, such as grain and so on. After all, the mountain roads are not that easy to walk.
"Your terrain is high, and your houses are all made of bricks and tiles. Is there any leakage in the house? Why don't you take us all in?" A village woman from Shanxia Village muttered, "There are many roads in the back mountain! It's raining and the mountain roads are so busy." It’s not easy to walk.”
Someone raised it, and someone else seconded it:
"Yes, please do yourself a favor and free up a few rooms for us to live in! We will move out as soon as the rain stops. It's really inconvenient to go up the mountain."
"You are here to escape from the famine, and we have opened up land for you so that you can take advantage of it. So what if you help us! We won't lose your meat!"
What Xu Yin was worried about happened.
The reason why she only takes in the elderly and children is because she is afraid of such a situation.
Each family's house was built based on the number of people. After all, the bricks and tiles were not rich enough to build as many houses as they wanted.
It's okay to squeeze one or two people into each other, but how can one family and two families live in it?
What's more, I don't know how long this rain will last. If it doesn't stop for a month like Li Yuanjin said, who can afford it?
The two sides started to disagree, and instead of helping others, they started to complain.
"village head……"
Of course the people in Hope Village don’t want Xu Yin to agree.
Not to mention anything else, they felt unhappy just because they were criticized and made sarcastic remarks by the villagers at the foot of the mountain.
Xu Yin gave them a comforting look, turned back to the head of Shanxia Village and said:
"Sorry! Our abilities are limited, this is all we can help. Before the mountain road is washed away, everyone should go up the mountain and find a cave to hide as soon as possible!"
"You bunch of fleeing ghosts! You're used to fleeing, and you want us to try fleeing too? You're so cruel!"
"You little bitch who can kill you with a thousand swords, you are so cruel, you will be punished sooner or later!"
Even the people who had thanked Xu Yin profusely because her prescription cured her ascariasis were silent at this moment, allowing others to point at Xu Yin and yell at her.
Some people even raised their fists and glared at the people of Hope Village fiercely: "I'll beat you guys to death! Don't save me until you die!"
"If I were so cruel that I wouldn't save you, I wouldn't even have to lend you the sandbags! What were you doing while we were sewing the sandbags? Laughing at us for being stupid? Secretly scolding us for being stupid?" Xu Yin said coldly, "In that case, Just leave!”
"This is no good! The elderly and children can't stand it." The manager wiped the rain off his face and stood up to smooth things over.
"Chief, what nonsense are you talking to them about! There are so many of us, but we are afraid that we can't defeat them? Let's just blow them all away! This is our territory to begin with, so it's easier for them to open up wasteland for them!"
"That's right!"
Xu Yin lowered her face, picked up the iron rake in her hand, and threw it at the man who encouraged the villagers to fight.
The thick iron teeth were nailed into the stone slab in front of the man's toes, making a dull sound, and the iron rake handle vibrated, making a resonance sound of "buzzing".
The whole place was silent except for the heavy rain.
"grass!"
The voice of all.
They can drive an iron rake into the soil, but they can drive it into a stone slab and still stand it up. Who can do that?
The mayor of Hope Village is clearly a tough guy!
Who can beat this?
"Hey, you bastard! Whose family do you belong to? You've been making noise all day long!" The village chief started to round up the place and invited people from his village, "Let's go, let's go! Hurry up the mountain! Leave the elderly and children behind! You can look after each family's food. Go ahead and deposit it quickly and be polite!"
"..."
This time, no one dared to refute. They glanced at Xu Yin and ran as fast as she could.
