The rain has been falling, kicking off this year's spring flood. Rao was prepared to build a dam and control the river for a year, but Kou Yan still felt that he had no bottom in his heart. A day or two of rain is not a big deal, but what if the heavy rain lasts for a month? No matter how wide the river is, it can't hold up the Yangtze River and release water downwards!

On this day, Kou Yan stood under the porch, looking at the rain curtain in front of him like a waterfall, listening to the sound of the rain hitting the eaves in his ears like popping beans, and his heart was heavy. Ma Liang had just left, and he had come to report that the moat had exceeded the warning water level, and that there had been a large area of water in the city, and asked Kou Yan to take an idea. It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, where did Kou Yan come up with any idea?

Fortunately, Changsha used to be a flooded place, and the common people had the experience of escaping the water shortage, and the most Kou Yan could do was Xiao Gui Cao Sui. In front of nature, she felt very small and could not do anything, so she sighed for a long time.

sighed for a long time, and was not interested. The next person suddenly came to report that Xu Shu asked to see him. Kou Yan's eyes lit up, and he quickly returned to the study. Since the fight won the Soochow again, there has been no war in Changsha. The courage on Xu Shu's shoulders was lighter, and he resumed the mode of working while teaching. It's just that Kou Yan, the director of the heavy rain for several days, didn't go to class for several days. Today, the teacher came to see her, and she was naturally very happy.

Who knew that the good mood didn't last for a minute, and after seeing Xu Shu and hearing him explain his intentions, he immediately disappeared. "Teacher, what's the matter? Your robe is almost soaked. Kou Yan frowned and said, "Isn't there another emergency military situation?"

At this time, Xu Shu changed his calm and leisurely appearance in the past, and looked very wolf, his clothes were wet, his hair was wet, and he seemed to have come from the Changshi Mansion without rain gear. This made Kou Yan's smile freeze on his face: "What's the matter?"

"It's bad, worse than an emergency. Xu Shu was a little anxious, didn't care about etiquette, and blurted out directly: "I just got the news that a plague epidemic has been found in a county. "What?" Kou Yan jumped up suddenly: "You mean the plague?" Kou Yan suddenly turned pale: "How can this be!"

The plague is no joke, once the epidemic spreads, the city of Changsha will be devastated, which is much more terrible than war. Thinking that under his rule, the population resources were not abundant, and he tried his best to deal with the flood just so that a few fewer people could die? As soon as the plague came, his efforts were all useless, and Kou Yan couldn't help but become anxious: "Teacher, what should I do about this?"

Xu Shu's expression was originally very strict, but when he saw his disciple so flustered, he calmed down: "Don't be too nervous, Changsha has frequent floods, and basically every time there will be epidemics of varying scales, which is also an important reason why Changsha's population is not abundant, the people are accustomed to this situation, all you have to do is to try to reduce the impact of the epidemic, even if it is just one less person than last year, your credit is not small." ”

"I thought that as long as I repaired the river in time and issued a warning of the flood in time, no one would die......" Kou Yan muttered to himself as if he was deceiving himself: "I didn't expect it, but I couldn't avoid it......" "Some things can't be avoided in the first place." Xu Shu said softly: "Don't worry, the officials under your command are all experienced in this area, and everything that should be arranged has already been arranged." ”

"Teacher...... The couch is flooded, and the rest of the place ...... It should be the same, right?" Kou Yan still frowned. "This heavy rain has affected many places, and it is said that this is also the case in Xiangyang. Xu Shu groaned. "Xiangyang ......" Kou Yan smiled bitterly: "Xiangyang is such a big city, and the reserves in all aspects are so sufficient, it will definitely not be as flustered as me." ”

"It's all the same...... Xu Shu sighed lightly: "Don't think about this, since Lord Taishou has time, can you give me time for the next game of chess?" "Hmm!" Kou Yan subconsciously agreed, and looked at his teacher in surprise: "You mean...... Playing chess?"

"yes, chess. Xu Shu chuckled. "Okay. Kou Yan responded, and personally found the chessboard pieces and put them on the table: "Please be merciful to the teacher." The master and apprentice sat down face to face and began this war without gunpowder.

Falling and falling, Kou Yan's whole spirit fell on the chessboard. Xu Shu's layout skills are so high, how could Kou Yan, who had just learned chess for a few years, be his opponent? At this time, Xu Shu spoke:

"You know that Liu Jingzhou's condition has deteriorated. ”

"Yes, I know ......"

"Any thoughts?"

"No idea......"

On the chessboard, Xu Shu pinched the hand of the white chess piece and stopped in mid-air for a moment before putting down the chess piece: "Call eating." Kou Yan was already sweating on his forehead at this time. The black piece in her hand couldn't fall for a long time, and Xu Shu turned a large piece of her black chess into a dead chess piece with just one move. She looked up and down, left and right for a long time, and couldn't see where the way to live was, so she had to aggrievedly leave the sunspot on the corner away from this area: "The teacher is too powerful, there is no way to live here." ”

"Didn't you find another way to live?" Xu Shu was unmoved: "As long as there is a way to live, you won't lose, but it's a pity that some people don't know that they have completely lost their way to live." ”

"He is looking for death by himself, and there will be good results in the period of seeking skin with the tiger. But then again, he originally lived in the tiger wolf den, thinking that the outside was full of kind rabbits, who knew that the tiger wolf outside was more terrible than the nest. Kou Yan left two sons in a row, trying to manage his "frontier", and he didn't have time to speak in his head, and he was straightforward.

"He's weakly swallowed by a tiger, and it's not good for you. Xu Shu sighed.

"It's not good for me to save him. The corners of Kou Yan's mouth tugged: "The old one is so sick that he gives his son to others as a springboard, which is the business of his Liu family, but Changsha's surname is Kou now, and he will only be surnamed Kou in the future. ”

"Then why don't you let Ma Jing call you lord?" Xu Shu asked rhetorically. "The teacher knew about it, but he still tested me. Kou Yan was defenseless, revealing the attitude of his little daughter: "I'm done, it's your turn, if you don't fall behind, how can I take the lead? ”

"It's a good move, and you say that you don't have an idea, you already have an idea. Xu Shu dropped again: "I seem to have heard the footsteps of that person coming to Changsha, we have to prepare to take it." ”

"I don't care about taking his beckons now, teacher, I know you're trying to divert my attention, longing for the plague epidemic to be all I think about now, what should I do?" Kou Yan hated and irritable in her heart, and because the teacher was sitting opposite, she didn't dare to be mad and held back uncomfortable.
