Chapter 142: The road blocks the house and the river rises

"It's not chic, it's fluttering, it's sprinkling, it's sprinkling. How can I do it in one night, I've been floating for a day and a night, and I'm about to float. ”

Shi Tao knew that Chen Qian was teasing him, and said even more exaggeratedly.

"Don't you go back to the factory because of the heavy rain? This place in Shanbei City used to be flooded, and when the water is heavy, it can really float you up. Chen Qian smiled.

"The mudslide blocked the road, and the bus drove halfway through and came back, so I had no choice but to stay. I'm really worried that Shanbei City will be flooded, but I can't go back so far!"

"Then you can stay there for a long time. Shanbei City has not been flooded yet, our factory can be flooded, the small river ditch on the street is full, every household on the first floor has entered the water, and some tables and chairs have floated to the street. ”

Shi Tao didn't expect the rain to be heavier near the company, and in this case, workers commuting to and from work are a problem, and it is estimated that production will also be affected.

"Is the company still in normal production?"

"It's been stopped for many days, and it rained some time ago, so it stopped production that time. This time, fortunately, the work was stopped, and many workshops were flooded. Just now, Hu You was leading people to carry the flood. ”

"I said why didn't he answer the first call, it seems that he was really busy. ”

Shi Tao finally understood why Hu You didn't answer the phone in time, and he also understood why Hu You urged him to come back, the company was in urgent need of manpower.

"How are you going to work now?, is it easy to walk on the road?" Shi Tao was more concerned about how Chen Qian was.

"When I crossed the bridge, there was no water on the road, and the roads in the company became rivers. ”

"Is your rental alright?"

"Fortunately, I live on the second floor, and the first floor is miserable, the water is half a foot deep, and I live there, and the things are stacked high, and people go somewhere else. ”

"Be sure to be safe when you come out and go in. ”

"Don't worry about me, when are you coming back?"

"Let's see if we can go back tomorrow. ”

"Pay attention to safety on the road, waiting for you!"

After hanging up Chen Qian's phone, Shi Tao lay on the bed to rest, and at eight or nine o'clock in the evening he was woken up hungry.

The rain was still falling outside the window, and through the light from the windows of the building, you could see the rain flowing sideways, but I didn't know where it was going.

Shi Tao added a bucket of instant noodles, which was worthy of his belly. Lie back on the bed, let the storm and rain, do my spring and autumn dreams.

The next morning, the heavy rain turned into a light rain, and then it finally stopped. Shi Tao arrived at the station to inquire about the traffic traffic.

The bus did not open for a long time, and there was no driver present. There are small vans soliciting business. Shi Tao stepped forward to ask if he could drive to the town.

The van driver said that now the vehicle could not pass, so he had to be sent to the mudslide, and the person walked over, and there was a car on the opposite side to take him to the town.

Shi Tao thought this method was feasible, so he returned to the hotel, picked up his luggage, returned to the room, and returned to the van.

The driver was still waiting for someone, and he was unwilling to pull only one Shi Tao at a time.

Half an hour later, six more people finally arrived, and the car was filled.

The driver of the van told everyone about the disaster while driving.

It is said that this time the rain is particularly heavy, and it has not rained so much in the past ten years, and many places are flooded.

The water in the river is even bigger, the water surface has reached its highest peak, the bridge is no longer visible, and now the bridge head is still sealed and closed to traffic.

Some of the houses along the river have been flooded, but fortunately they are all cement brick houses, if the old adobe wall houses would have collapsed long ago.

Shi Tao saw that there were still traces of flooding on the walls of the buildings near the river, and the waterline was at least one meter high from the ground, neatly like an ink line painted on the wall.

The van drove very fast, and it took about 40 minutes to reach the broken road.

The vehicles here are all given away, some are turning back, and some are waiting for guests.

There was a road underneath, but it was muddy.

Ahead of us is the mudslide area, where the rubble and mud that washed down from the mountain not only blocked the road, but also covered the hillside with a thick layer.

Occasionally, small streams of mudslides roll down the road into the ravines below, where small peninsulas have formed.

Although the rain has stopped, the rain is still flowing from the mountain, and the small gravel flows into the river with the current.

The gravel that fell on the road was about one or two meters high, and the highest point could be four or five meters. There are about forty or fifty meters of road blocked, and it is impossible for large and small vehicles to pass.

Those who want to go there have been cautious steps on the gravel, not only to be careful not to step on the stones under their feet, but also to watch out for the stones that roll down the mountain from time to time.

There were also people on the other side who walked cautiously. Seeing someone coming, the van driver shouted loudly to solicit business, and he wanted to pull the people who came from the opposite side back to Shanbei City.

Shi Tao saw that a forklift was shoveling gravel into the truck behind him.

The excavator is cleaning up the gravel on the hillside, and every time it digs, the gravel on the hill flows downward, and even worse.

The excavator retreated, and the place that had been dug before was quickly re-covered with rubble.

It seems that the work is very large, not only to remove the debris from the road, but also to remove the debris that may roll down the mountain, otherwise it will be very dangerous and threaten pedestrians and vehicles passing by.

Someone is directing, directing the operation vehicles, directing the pedestrians coming and going.

There are also people working on the gravel pile, using shovels to level the gravel and make a path for people to walk.

Shi Tao walked up to the gravel pile with one foot deep and one foot shallow. There were not only stones, but also mud and sand, mountain grass, and water, and soon the shoes were covered with yellow mud, and the trouser legs were splashed with mud.

Some women fell to the sound of screams, got up again and again, and continued to walk through the rubble.

Shi Tao finally came, and there was a van waiting for people passing by.

Perhaps because it is far away from the county seat, there are no construction vehicles to work.

Shi Tao got into a van and waited for a few minutes, when it was full, the driver pulled them to the town.

The level of the ditch on the side of the highway was only a quiet flow in the day, but now the water seems to be unusually turbulent, and the sound of rushing water is very loud.

Shi Tao felt that the van was sometimes fast and sometimes slow. When I slowed down, I found that the existing road had been washed away, a large piece was missing, and the foundation had been washed into the river.

The van had to drive carefully along the side of the hill, and the bus could not get through.

This made Shi Tao understand why the bus at the station did not leave today.

In places like this, Shi Tao saw four or five places. I also saw mudslides in many places, not on a large scale, but just a pile of gravel at the foot of the mountain, which did not prevent the van from detouring.

According to the van driver, from here to Shannan County, there are more than a dozen damaged places. In some places, the roads are badly damaged, and in others, they are lighter.

There are many mudslides, most of which are relatively small. There are two or three large places, but they are not as serious as those in the north, and large cars are still impassable, and only vans can barely pass.

The van was about to drive to Shannan County, and Shi Tao got off the bus passing through the town.

The small bridge leading to Chen Qian's rental house was still submerged in water, and the water was flowing loudly across the bridge.

Some of the houses near the river were flooded with water, and at least half a meter of the doors were soaked in the water, and small bamboo stools floated out of the houses and floated on the water, floating around with the current.

Shi Tao walked along the highway to the company's station. The water in the ditch beside the road was still buzzing.

It is also the convergence of many such small ravines that fill the large ravines and rivers below.

Fortunately, the three-to-five-mile road from the town to the company was not destroyed, and there were no mudslides.

There is a fish pond in front, usually the water in the fish pond has to be pumped from the small river ditch to replenish the water, now the fish pond and the river water have been connected into a piece and can not distinguish each other, those fish do not know whether they swim back to the river along the water.

After the rain, the mountain is filled with a damp smell, and it feels unusually refreshing to breathe. Shi Tao took a deep breath, and there was still the fragrance of earth.

But the arrival of this rainstorm, the destruction of the landform, I don't know what else happened in front of me, Shi Tao's mood is not happy.

When Shi Tao approached the company, he turned a corner, and saw people moving at the west entrance of the company from a distance, and from time to time there were people's voices.

When I got closer, it turned out that Hu You was leading dozens of workers to clean up the rubble, and several company leaders and Xing Chengyue in the factory were also there.

The topography of the door is high outside and low inside, and the door will go down a large slope.

It doesn't look like there's a mudslide here, it's not the same as Shi Tao saw the mudslide blocking the road.

The flash flood washed the gravel from the mountain down the hillside, and as the flood water from the ground rolled downward, the nearby rocks were all rolled in here due to the terrain at the company's entrance.

In this way, the inside and outside of the company's gate and on the road three tens of meters away were full of stones.

The big pieces were the size of a basketball, the small pieces were the size of a fist, and the round stones rolled farther away.

Hu You directed the people to move the stones, and to move them into the wall on the north side of the gate, where the flash flood could not be washed away and would not cause a secondary blockage.

Shi Tao said hello to Hu You and reported to him.

Hu You saw that Shi Tao's feet were full of mud, so he asked him to hurry back to the dormitory to change his clothes, and go to the warehouse to get a pair of rain boots to help.

Only then did Shi Tao notice that Hu You and the workers had changed into black rain boots under his feet.

When Shi Tao passed by the office, he saw Bai Ling busy in the room alone, so he said hello to Bai Ling. Bai Ling was also very happy to see Shi Tao come back.

Shi Tao went back to the dormitory to put down his luggage, and found that there was a TV set on the empty bed opposite him, which had been installed with cables, and he didn't care if there was a TV or not, so he turned back to the warehouse.

Qin Feng was equally happy to see Shi Tao, and fetched him a pair of black rain boots, and Shi Tao went to the west gate to help.

Shi Tao didn't move a few stones, and the workers were almost finished.

Later, Shi Tao followed Hu You, Xing Chengyue and others to the emergency pool in the north of the company to check.

The 10,000 cubic meter emergency reservoir usually only has half of the water, but now it has been flattened, and the north is connected with the adjacent small river ditch, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a pond or a river.

Huyou kept sighing.

"Oops! Oops! This is a problem, what should I do?"

The accident pool is the wastewater from the production process, which can be reused after precipitation. It is usually used as a backup for firefighting in the event of an accident such as a fire.

If this water flows into the river, it will inevitably cause pollution, and it will cause complaints from the mountain people and dissatisfaction with the localities, which is something that Hu You is very worried about.
