Everyone on the mountain also heard the loud roar and felt the ground shaking.
Jiang Yue's heart sank, she didn't have time to put on her raincoat and ran out of the cave.
The rain hit her face, she wiped it with her hand, and her eyes were clear. She saw the flood like a gray swimming dragon, opening its bloody mouth, and it felt like it was swallowing up the world. From east to west, in less than half a moment, two cities were destroyed one after another.
"Ho-oh, for God's sake!"
"Look there, is that a corpse? Oh my God!" The refugees were shocked and exclaimed.
I don't know which grave mounds were washed away, but dozens of corpses with unclear faces surfaced, which was very horrifying.
"There are still many people who were washed away with wood in their hands -" the cries for help reached the mountains.
Jiang Nian also walked out and stood behind her, looking at this real purgatory on earth.
He had good eyesight, pointed in one direction, and whispered, "It's Mrs. Lianhua and her Taoist priests."
Jiang Yue raised her eyes and saw that the gray-blue Taoist uniform was easy to identify.
The Taoist priests were still struggling to survive, trying to grab the driftwood around them, but Mrs. Lianhua seemed to be determined to die and remained motionless.
There were many people wearing official uniforms, silks, burlap, and even no clothes around.
In the face of natural disasters, no matter what your status is, whether you have money or not, whether you are male or female, old or young, all living beings are equal and must accept the suffering.
If they had gone down the mountain two days earlier and encountered floods, they might have suffered a lot even if they had space.
The tragic scene now is shocking.
At this moment, Jiang Yue thought of many people, the Jiang family village chief's family, the Fang family, the Wang family, the two children, and the grandparents and grandchildren who depended on each other in Fengtian City. Did they escape? Or are they among these floating corpses?
Jiang Nian put his hand on her head to protect her from the rain, his eyes calm, "Yueyue, go in, don't catch a cold."
Jiang Yue took a breath and turned around, "Okay, let's go in."
No matter what, living people still have to live well.
At night, there was heavy rain and lightning and thunder.
Jiang Yue was startled. She was too close to the sky. She heard thunder and lightning on the top of the mountain, which was deafening. She felt that it would hit her head in the next second.
She murmured to herself, "I have never done anything bad, and I have also done a lot of good things. If God opens his eyes, please don't hit me on the head..."
Jiang Nian's ears and eyes were clear, he couldn't help but chuckle, turned into a wolf shape, and wrapped her tightly. Transforming into a wolf form can also prevent the intrusion of some poisonous snakes and beasts, making it safer.
The village chief Jiang Dashu's family and Yan Gu's family, whom she missed, were hiking in the mountains in the rain.
Since that day they learned that the village had been massacred, and with the threat of locust disasters and wildfires, everyone unanimously decided to join the escape team.
They have a lot of people and a lot of luggage, but except for Jiang Dashu's family who has a mule, Yangu's family only has a wheelbarrow, so they can only rely on people to transport it.
No matter how hard you work, you don't dare to throw things away. A broken home is worth thousands of dollars. If you go to a new place, it's another question whether you have the money to prepare things and whether you have a shop to buy them.
With several children in tears, Gao and Li killed all the rabbits and dried them in the sun. Together with two bags of dried locusts, this was their only meat.
If you find some water in the mountains, make dry pancakes. When the water is gone, stir-fry beans and black noodles. This is the food of the famine years, no matter how choked you are, you can only eat this way.
After the dry food was ready, the two families followed closely behind a passing fleeing team, seeking shelter.
Fortunately, the other party also fled the whole village, and many of them were old, weak, sick and disabled. Seeing that the two families had many strong laborers, he acquiesced in allowing them to join.
The group of people were walking south and encountered many threats along the way. They not only robbed money and food, but also robbed people. The youngest son of Jiang San's family was almost taken away. They watched the child more closely.
As Jiang Dashu got older, he took this opportunity to teach his three sons well and imparted to them decades of survival experience.
Jiang Shan gradually became the backbone of the family. When a heavy rain came, he suggested going into a cave to take shelter.
"The children at home are still too young, so they were very sleepy along the way. If they get caught in the rain, they might collapse."
Jiang Dashu looked at the team ahead who were still rushing in the rain, gritted his teeth, and decided to listen to his eldest son and avoid the rain first. Talent is the most important thing, it’s useless if people fall down in a new place.
Aunt Yan's family also has two little babies, so she naturally has no objection.
The two of them walked towards the nearest hilltop, and when they reached the foot of the hill, they heard a loud rumbling noise.
Jiang Shan reacted quickly and quickly climbed up a tree trunk next to him. The moment he saw it clearly, his face was extremely ugly. He immediately jumped down, picked up a baby in one hand, and shouted, "The flood is coming! Climb up the mountain!"
sky! flood!
The two families had no time to wipe the rain off their faces and ran forward as fast as they could.
The team in front was already a mile away from them, and the rain was so heavy that they couldn't hear clearly.
In times of emergency, they can only protect themselves.
"Bang——" There are many dead branches and leaves on the mountain, and people fall down from time to time. But no one cared about the pain, so they grabbed him and continued running forward without even having time to pat the mud off his body.
When they panted halfway up the mountain, the flood roared past, and many people on the water were waving and shouting for help.
The people who were traveling with them a quarter of an hour ago were washed away by the water in front of them. The team of hundreds of people dispersed instantly.
Jiang Dashu didn't know whether it was rain or tears on his face. He wiped it hard and shouted, "If we go up further, it's not safe here yet!"
When they found a cave, everyone sat down on the ground, stunned for a while, and someone didn't know who sobbed. Then everyone in the cave couldn't help crying.
He escaped, but no one knew where the flood would reach. What should his parents, brothers and sisters at home do?
Although the moment I decided to flee, I had already prepared to never see my mother-in-law again, but after all, people still want to be alive!
What kind of world is this? God deliberately prevents people from surviving!
When he was done crying, Jiang Dashu felt that half of his energy was gone. He cheered up with a hoarse voice, "Everyone tidy up the cave, sweep up all the dead branches and leaves, and make a fire to bake them. Don't get sick." "
The most feared thing on the road to escape was getting sick. Not to mention dragging down the team, it was difficult to say whether they could save their lives. They only had some unsold life-saving herbs left.
After the flood, heavy rain continued for three days, and then gradually turned to drizzle.
The refugees were all rejoicing because the wild grass was growing on the mountains.
They have been chewing the bark for half a year, and they can eat any green leaves, whether they are wild vegetables or weeds.
Xu Jiangyue and the two did not cause any trouble, and the refugees began to be curious about them.
But they never came out of the cave easily, and the mule was quiet.
Heavy rain fell continuously for six or seven days, followed by drizzle. The firewood was damp and the refugees could not make fire with their flints.
"My hands hurt from brushing, Ah Hua, why don't you go to the cave next door to borrow a fire?"
