A loud muffled sound frightened the educated youths and villagers who ran out of the tunnel to hide from the cannons, and when they came back to their senses, they had a premonition that something was wrong and rushed to the mouth of the tunnel.

The elder brother was not injured, but the whole person was stunned, and when several other intellectuals shook the elder brother awake, he stood up and rushed into the hole like a madman.

The villagers and educated youths followed closely inside, and the elder brother shouted loudly while running quickly, Village Chief, where are you?

There was only a dull echo in the tunnel of Xiaoshishan, and there was no response from the village chief, everyone shouted along, but there was still only a dull echo, and there was no response from the village chief. Everyone's hearts were instantly tightened, and their faces became solemn, it seems that the village chief really had an accident this time.

When my brother ran to the place where the stone cannon was fired, he saw blood on the stones scattered on the ground, but he didn't see the shadow of the village chief. The other people who followed up sensed that the situation was very wrong and were anxious to look around.

"The village chief's hand, come on, I see the village chief's hand. One of the villagers screamed, his face turned blue and his whole body trembled.

Everyone rushed to the location of the villager, and everyone was greeted by a bloody hand. In an instant, everyone's face was covered with a haze, and sadness was written.

"The village chief is pressed down, don't be stupid, everyone come and help move the stones above. When the elder brother saw the bloody hand of the village chief, tears welled up like a spring, and he choked up.

Everyone quickly gathered around and began to move the stones on it, everyone's eyes were full of tears, their expressions were sad, and they couldn't cry.

"Tap, tap, don't hurt the village chief, don't hear it. The elder brother reminded loudly while carrying the stones.

After everyone's efforts, the stones that pressed on the village chief's body were removed, but the village chief who appeared in front of everyone had been smashed beyond recognition by the stones, covered in scaly wounds, his body was incomplete, and his blood stains were stained.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and the air in the tunnel seemed to freeze suddenly, giving people an indescribable feeling of suffocation.

The elder brother settled down, stretched out his hand and tried the village chief's snort, and found that the village chief had lost his breath, and there was no possibility of rescuing him at all, so he whimpered and cried.

Everyone knelt down in unison, their eyes were cold, their faces were gloomy, and they cried loudly, Village Chief, wake up, the tunnel is about to be pierced, and we are still waiting for you to come to the celebration party.

Good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. The old village chief, an ordinary old man, for the sake of the village's hundred-year plan and in order to solve the problem of water shortage in the village, left with deep regret, walked very glorious, and walked very tragically; the old village chief, an old man who was not afraid of danger, for the safety of his brother and for the comfort of everyone, did not hesitate to risk his life, left his life to others, and left his death to himself, he left with a deep smile and no regrets, and walked very calmly and in a very narrow sense.

When the villagers learned that something had happened to the water diversion tunnel, they all rushed to the construction site like wasps had been burned by fire; Liu Lemei's heart rose to her throat, her face was full of tears, and she ran out of breath; Ma Juhua's heart was pounding, and a strong sense of foreboding hit her heart, and she ran towards the construction site like a madman, tears welling up.

The elder brother and the others had already carried the village chief out, and the village chief was so tired that he lay quietly on the stretcher, not moving at all, and the white cloth covering him was blowing in the cold wind, and from time to time there were white ripples, and everyone's hearts were set off in a frenzy, and one by one they were pestled beside them like a stake, and there were no tears in their eyes, only infinite sadness, and there was no sadness in their hearts, only the hollowed-out chest.

Liu Lemei saw her brother's tall and thin body trembling slightly from a distance, and the big stone that was pressing on her chest finally fell to the ground, her legs were weak, and she almost fell to the ground.

Ma Juhua had already run to the entrance of the cave and stood in front of the stretcher covered with white cloth, tears streaming down her face, her face full of sadness, and the men present burst into tears and cried hysterically, Chrysanthemum, I'm sorry, we didn't protect the village chief well, you beat us, scold us.

Ma Juhua's tears were dripping down like beads of broken threads, she wanted to open the white cloth to see her father for the last time, but it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and she felt that her whole head seemed to be bombarded by a thunderstorm.

Three days later, all the villagers and educated youths held a grand funeral for the old village chief, and the village chief's spirit in heaven was also laid to rest.

Ma Juhua's mother died long ago due to illness, and when her father left, she felt that the whole person was in decline, and she often knelt alone in front of the portrait of her parents in a daze, which made people feel distressed and anxious.

My brother went to see her from time to time and comforted her, Chrysanthemum, the village chief is gone, we are all very sad, but you have to be strong, his old man definitely doesn't want to see you like this, you must cheer up, you can't stop eating or drinking like this.

"Brother Shanjiang, how do you tell me to live? Why is my life so bitter?" Rows of tears rolled out from the corners of Ma Juhua's eyes, she cried bitterly, her whole body trembled, and her weak body was like the withered grass swaying in the wind and rain.

"Isn't there still me, I'll take care of you for the rest of your life. Zhong Shanjiang did not forget the old village chief's deathbed entrustment, he solemnly helped Ma Juhua up, tears flashed, and said sincerely.

"Brother Shanjiang, you are an educated youth, a native of the city, you have to go back sooner or later, how can you take care of me? Don't make me happy, I'm already enough to do evil. Ma Juhua knew that Zhong Shanjiang was just comforting herself, and she choked up with lotus dew on her face.

"I promised the village chief that I would take care of you for the rest of your life, a gentleman said, the horse is difficult to chase, I will do what I say, please believe me!" Zhong Shanjiang seemed to want to give Ma Juhua a reassuring pill and let her come back to life, and said with great perseverance.

"If there is a policy that allows you to go back to the city in the future, don't you still have to go back to the city?" Ma Juhua was still a little worried, after all, Zhong Shanjiang's home was in the city, and sooner or later he would have to go back to the city, if that day came, what would she do? She said worriedly.

"Even if there is a day, I will not return, first, I must fulfill your father's unfulfilled wish and bring the water of Meifeng River to the village; second, I promised your father that I would take care of you for the rest of your life, and I will do it when I say it, so you don't believe me? Do you want me to show you my heart before you believe me?" Zhong Shanjiang said with blazing eyes, a resolute face, and a sonorous tone.

"Brother Shanjiang, I know that you are comforting me, I really appreciate it, but don't lie to yourself anymore, even if what you say is true, all of us know that you still have Lemei?"

"Don't worry, I'll explain it to Lemei seriously, you don't have to worry about this. Zhong Shanjiang frowned, his whole face twitched, he gritted his teeth, and said in a sonorous voice.

"What about Lemei, she loves you so much. Ma Juhua still couldn't believe her ears, and she said sadly.

"You don't have to worry about this, Lemei will definitely understand me. Liu Lemei's domineering, Zhong Shanjiang still knows it, but he can only take one step at the moment, he said in a low tone.

"Brother, you are so good!" For Ma Juhua, who had just lost her father, her heart was fragile and her mood was dazed, Zhong Shanjiang's words were like Huiyang Dan, which brought her endless hope, and she couldn't help but fall into Zhong Shanjiang's wide and warm arms.

Liu Lemei heard some news about the educated youth being able to return to their hometowns and return to the city, and wanted to tell Zhong Shanjiang, a man she loved the most, as soon as possible, but when she went from the educated youth point to the water diversion site, she searched all over the place, but she didn't find his shadow. Later, when she inquired, a knowledgeable youth told her that Zhong Shanjiang might have gone to the village chief's house, so she searched all the way.

Liu Lemei, who was standing at the door of the hall, had also heard some rumors about the village chief's deathbed entrustment before, but she didn't take it seriously, but when she saw this scene that she didn't want to see in her life, it was like five thunderbolts hitting the top, her head buzzed, her face was blue, and the green tendons on her forehead were exposed, as if the whole sky had fallen, she covered her red lips, whimpered, and quickly ran away.
