The raging storm has now turned into a heavy rain, and the wind has stopped. However, the heavy rain falling from all over the sky still makes Ye Qiong and the soldiers at the waterfall base feel uncomfortable.
There was no thunder now, although the rainstorm was still heavy, and the raindrops the size of beans fell from the sky, and when they fell on the face, there was still that stinging feeling.
The temperature is not high either, and the soldiers have all wrapped themselves in animal fur coats worn in winter. Fortunately, the animal fur coats are waterproof, so as long as the collar is tightly wrapped, the inside of the body will be dry.
Ye Qiong looked at the situation at the waterfall cave. At this moment, he could only see the edge of the waterfall cave, and some dark shadows of the cave. The two large vines above were still standing strong, and there were no He was directly pushed down by the current, but if the people inside wanted to come out, it would be obviously impossible for a while.
I can only stay in there honestly.
In the water below the base of the waterfall, downstream, there is a higher dike built by the soldiers last winter.
At that time, it was built to prevent the water falling from the waterfall from flowing back to the base of the waterfall. Now it has become the culprit of the accumulation of water in the water channel that cannot be discharged in time.
So now Ye Qiong has to find a way to lead the soldiers there and open some holes in the dam.
Just do what you say. At this moment, Ye Qiong and the soldiers can't sit still. More than half of the waterfall base has been submerged. Most of the remaining wooden houses are unable to go in to rest for the time being.
Ye Qiong divided the warriors into two waves. After putting on bamboo hats, one wave of warriors entered the dense forest. Now they needed to get some wood to make rafts for emergency use.
Ye Qiong himself took Daidai and the remaining warriors along the current edge of the water to the dam downstream.
For the sake of safety, Ye Qiong did not let the soldiers dig the embankment immediately. Instead, he first drove some wooden piles outside, tied a rope to the wooden piles, and tied the other end to the soldiers' waists.
After taking care of the safety measures, the soldiers took their tools and began to work hard.
Although they had little physical strength, the soldiers did it very quickly. In about half an hour, they dug a big hole at the edge of the embankment.
In the dense forest, the soldiers who entered earlier had already transported some wood, and some of the soldiers began to make rafts. The original rafts at the wooden house base had been used up in order to transport the thunder to the Dinglong Mountains. Now, The children are piled up at the base of the wooden house.
Since then, the soldiers at the waterfall base, which has been in a state of war preparation, have no time to make these things, so now the rafts have to be made fresh.
The work continued until noon. Two large rafts, five meters long and six meters wide, were tied out by the soldiers themselves. After being bound, one section was tied to the wooden piles, and then directly lifted into the water.
As the force of the water flow equaled the pulling force of the wooden piles, the raft floated directly to the dug hole in the dam.
The soldiers can now step on it and use tools to continue digging deeper into the embankment.
As the gap in the dam became larger and larger, the height of the water at the base of the waterfall began to slowly decrease.
Within the Dinglong Mountains...
The storm in the wooden house base and the Dinglong Mountains did not hit here. It is only a little cloudy here at the wooden house base now.
Last night, the water flow in the water channel suddenly surged, causing the depth of the water here to increase a lot in a short period of time, burying a small part of the base of the wooden house.
However, in the second half of the night, the water flow in the water channel suddenly weakened again, until finally there were signs of cessation.
Now in the water channel, the water level in the middle channel has dropped very low, and there is almost no water flow.
The soldiers here at the wooden house base did not sleep much last night. When the water flow began to increase sharply, the abnormal sound of running water attracted the attention of the alert soldiers. After the water level in the nearby water rose sharply, the alert soldiers They immediately blew the warning whistle.
It was not until the water level dropped in the early morning that some of the soldiers went back to sleep.
In the morning, Huahuangji led a dozen warriors, riding snow-covered demon wolves, into the water channel...
The wooden barrel grease lamps in the water channel have now been completely destroyed, although the soldiers had fixed them when they placed them.
However, in such a relatively closed space, the power of the water flow is unimaginable, and the impact of the impact makes the soldiers do nothing to fix it...
After the water rose, all the wooden barrel grease lamps were pushed down and followed by the water out of the water channel.
Hua Huangji and the soldiers lit torches, and after advancing about ten kilometers, they saw the blocked area in front.
Looking at it from their point of view, the wood and stones have completely blocked the entire passage. As for the specific length, it is still unknown.
What the soldiers can do now is to slowly clean up.
After leading the soldiers out, Hua Huangji found Qing Lie, and after calling the top management of the wooden house base, they began to discuss countermeasures.
At the base of the waterfall, Ye Qiong is still leading the soldiers to clear the dam.
What made the soldiers more uncomfortable was that in the water, some aquatic monsters washed down from the upper reaches of the waterfall. They were about one or two meters in size and there were quite a few of them. Some of these guys gathered around the raft and jumped out from time to time. , affecting the work of the soldiers.
After seeing this scene, Ye Qiong shouted down and let him go hunting in the water.
At dusk, the waterside was already filled with aquatic fish and amphibian monsters as high as a small villa...
These are all Daidu's own achievements. Now the resources in this water area are very rich.
The soldiers also expanded the gap in the dam to about thirty meters, and the height of the water at the base of the waterfall began to continue to decrease.
The heavy rain turned into heavy rain at noon of the second day, and finally turned into light rain in the afternoon of the third day.
The base of the waterfall has also been exposed. The soldiers resumed their daily construction, and Ye Qiong climbed to the top of the waterfall with Dudu.
When Ye Qiong's head popped up from the edge of the waterfall, he immediately saw a spectacular scene in front of him.
Above the waterfall, it can only be described as a vast ocean.
All three rivers have been submerged, and the stone defense line at the edge of the downstream waterfall now has a big hole missing in the middle.
If there hadn't been that gap, the water would have been even bigger, and the altar might have been flooded!
At this moment, there was no black snake, and the figure of the Gale Golden Eagle could not be seen. Ye Qiong looked towards the altar.
I saw that at the bottom of the altar, half of the large stone caves were soaked in water, and the pit dug by the soldiers in front to prevent black snakes was gone...
