Chapter 389: Reservoir
"Sassy ......"
"Tweet ......"
The branches and leaves of the forest swayed with the breeze, making some rustling sounds,
The sunlight shining through the branches and leaves also swayed slightly,
Among the branches and leaves, some hidden birds jumped lightly, and from time to time they made some chirping,
The dew that is still attached to the branches and leaves drips from time to time, dripping on the dead branches and rotten leaves that have accumulated under the mountain forest.
“...... Squeak, squeak. ”
The mouse jumped on a grapefruit tree, photographed a grapefruit, screamed twice, and then ran back to Lian Ge's shoulder.
Stretching out his hand, Lian Ge caught the grapefruit, looked at the greedy mouse, and smiled,
With a wave of his hand, the shell of the grapefruit peeled off, and he tore off a tooth of grapefruit and handed it to the mouse, Lian Ge also tore off the tooth grapefruit and peeled off the skin of the grapefruit.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak......"
The mouse held the piece of grapefruit, tore it, peeled off the skin of the grapefruit, gnawed it, and screamed again,
Lian Ge raised his hand, also took a bite of grapefruit, and when he heard the sound, he smiled slightly,
"It's pretty sweet. ”
After saying a word, he looked at the grapefruit tree again, Lian Ge turned around and continued to walk in the direction of the river.
The mouse squatted on Lian Ge's shoulder, holding the toothy grapefruit, and fought with his head bored.
......
Along the upper reaches of the river, a man and a rat stepped on the dead branches and rotten leaves under the mountain forest, walking forward,
The rising sun gradually rises into the sky, through the dense branches and leaves of the mountains and forests, and some dappled sunlight shines down.
Hills approached in front of him, and then faded away behind him.
When the sun is obscured by clouds again,
Then over the top of a hill, a man and a rat stepped out of the mountain forest.
......
On the top of the hill, behind him is a dense forest with lush foliage, and the sound of insects and birds is mixed with the sound of swaying branches and leaves, and the breeze lingers in the ears.
In front of him is a vast lake, and on the edge of the lake, there is an embankment made of cement and bricks, and along both sides of the wide embankment, there are some vendors, or carts, selling some seasonal fruits, or stalls, selling some fishing gear, and in addition, there are scattered some houses, or restaurants, or teahouses,
Leaning closer to the shore of the lake, some people were moving stools, sitting on the shore, fishing,
Farther away, there seems to be a barbecue restaurant, some customers, sitting by the lake, around the oven, grilling,
The sound of words was mixed with the sound of swaying branches and leaves on all sides, the sound of flowing water, and the sound of insects and birds.
"Tweet ......"
A few birds rose from the dense forest behind Lian Ge and headed towards the lake.
......
“...... Throw the rod out like this...... My son is so smart......"
“...... Dad, how long will you have to wait......"
"Let's go fishing for a while, and we'll go over to find my mother. ”
......
Looking at the hills, beside the lake, or fishing, or eating barbecue, or walking, listening to the mixed voices,
Lian Ge moved his steps and walked towards the bottom of the mountain,
On the shoulder, the mouse also stands on its forelimbs, turning its head and looking around.
......
“...... Watermelon, watermelon ......"
“...... Brother, do you want to buy fishing rods and bait...... There are so many fish in this reservoir that the guest who bought a rod from me yesterday caught a big fish, and that guy ......."
“...... Sir, can you go into the store and take a look, the charcoal barbecue on the edge of the reservoir......"
The sound of selling mixed with the sound of words sounded, and it was carried away by the breeze by the lake, and on the embankment, it was a little noisy but not noisy.
Walking down the hillside, Lian Ge walked along the embankment, walking forward,
Beside him, anglers, vendors, passers-by, and some restaurants kept passing by.
“...... What, did you catch a fish?"
"Not yet, it's only been a long time......"
“...... Come, eat grilled chicken wings. ”
A man sits on a stool on the shore, fishing,
A woman came back with two skewers and talked to the man.
......
“...... You have to be patient with this fishing, you know?"
"Got it...... Daddy, when are we going to eat? ”
A man with a child, sitting on two small stools, fishing,
The man holds a big fishing rod, and the child holds a small fishing rod.
From time to time, the man picked up a glass of water to drink, and the child was sleepy and yawned from time to time.
......
Walking, Lian Ge watched and listened,
The breeze blows from time to time, the branches and leaves of the mountains and forests in the distance are gently swaying, and the nearby lake is slightly rippling.
“...... Let me tell you, this reservoir has only been in the past few years. ”
Not far from the lake, under a tree on the embankment, an old man and a middle-aged man played chess.
“...... Back then, there was a big flood in this area, and some villages were flooded."
The old man turned his head, looked at the vast surface of the reservoir, and spoke,
“...... The most serious village of Dahe is down the river, on the edge of the river.
It was still night, and overnight, the whole village was flooded, and many people in the village, presumably still asleep, drowned before they could react. ”
"So, is there anyone in that village who survived?"
The middle-aged man moved his chess, and also turned his head to look at the water,
“...... If you live one, the whole village will live one...... That night, the villagers who reacted ran to the hill on the edge of the village...... But that man could not run through the flood, and it was a night when it was raining heavily, and he ran all the way up, and there were people all the way, either he fell to the ground and did not get up again, or ah, he was smashed by the falling rocks on the mountain, he was not killed, he was pressed and could not move, so he could only watch the flood rise and drown over his head little by little, but he was not suppressed, and he was smashed into his legs, and he could only climb up on the ground...... But that man could have escaped the flood. ”
“...... Only one person ran to the top of the mountain?"
The middle-aged man listened, fell silent, looked at the lake, and couldn't help but ask.
"Not really...... To the top of the mountain, there were a total of four people, an old man, two middle-aged people, and a little girl. ”
The old man retracted his gaze, moved again, shook his head, and said,
"The one who survived was one of the middle-aged men?" the middle-aged man looked at the old man and asked,
“...... It's the little girl. The old man shook his head, and then said,
"How is she ......?"
"When the four men reached the top of the mountain, the flood went down a little below the top of the mountain."
The old man looked at the lake and said,
“...... The water has flooded there, and naturally there is no food to be found on the mountain, and when they first ran up the mountain, most of the families brought food, but all the way to the run, there were people left behind, who could take care of the food...... When he reached the top of the mountain, only the old man had something to eat...... When these people reacted, they knew that there was not enough food.
In order to grab food, he killed a middle-aged man on the same day......"
“...... That's ...... girl."
The old man turned his head and looked at the middle-aged man who was a little puzzled,
“...... But after that, the old man and the middle-aged man didn't touch the little bit of food, and gave it all to the little girl...... Maybe I think that little food can't live the two of them, and I can live the little girl......"
"At that time, transportation and communication were not developed, waiting for a little search and rescue to get there, and when I found those people, the old man was gone, the middle-aged man was already dizzy, and the little girl was almost gone......"
“...... After that, a reservoir was built here. ”
“...... This kind of thing, not now, never again......"
"Old man, why do you know this so well?"
“...... Back then, my daughter was half of Dahe Village, and two days after that, my daughter was going to get married. ”
