The Yegou Mountain area is a mountain stream area, and the rainwater has nowhere to penetrate and continues to pour down the mountain stream towards the reservoir after two days and two nights of heavy rain.

The rising reservoir water quickly leveled the dam, climbed up the wave wall, and hollowed out the sand shell on the wave wall piece by piece. The officers and soldiers were still resisting in vain, trying in vain to resist the flood.

The steel beams of the collapsed house, the bulky bookcases in the office, and the tools almost all could be found were transported up the embankment in an attempt to block the widening gaps in the wave walls.

Officers and soldiers, staff, men and women, and even Duan Shoujiang, were covered in mud and busy on the embankment.

Suddenly, a flash of lightning.

This was followed by a series of ear-bursting thunder. It's silent.

The slanting torrential rain stopped abruptly without warning, and then an exclamation was heard: "The water has fallen!

The flood water, which was still rising inch by inch, suddenly fell back with a "bang" as it reached the calves, knees, abdomen, and even flooded people's chests, and the speed was so rapid that everyone was dumbfounded.

The flood waters did recede in the blink of an eye.

Just when those who had never experienced a flood were shouting loudly: "The rain has stopped, the water has fallen, the water has fallen!" Duan Shoujiang, the chief commander of the Yegou Reservoir Flood Control Command, suddenly turned pale.

It's not a water fall, it's a dam break!

The scariest thing happened.

At this moment, the reservoir, which had been inflated like a huge balloon with sufficient air just now, suddenly withered -- nearly 100 million cubic meters of reservoir water at an eerie speed. Quickly passed through the breach on the north side of the embankment, and poured out violently.

The flood caused by the dam collapse has very different characteristics from the usual flood, and this artificially accumulated potential energy is released suddenly and instantaneously. It has a tremendous destructive power that cannot be resisted.

The white water is like a roaring dragon in the vastness. And right in front of this dragon are hundreds of thousands of people who have not yet been evacuated.

It's over, it's all over.

On the remaining two-thirds or so of the embankment, everyone looked in horror at the breaching in the distance, and in the turbid waves, countless warriors rose and fell one after another. And then it goes.

"Chief, retreat. The dam can't be saved!"

Several guards dragged Duan Shoujiang. Tried to get him away from the dam. Duan Shoujiang's tiger eyes were bloodshot, he broke free from the pull, and shouted: "What about people, what about people." Drive the crane, excavator, and forklift to Lao Tzu, drive here, block the breach for me, block the break!"

Construction machinery weighing more than ten tons started the engine frantically, drove up the embankment, and the driver fixed the accelerator and then fled from the cab. I watched as construction machinery filled into the water.

The trend of the rupture was temporarily alleviated, and just as everyone was nervously watching the rupture, there was a loud bang. The end of the dam collapsed, and the waterproof tent was instantly flooded.

Duan Shoujiang's eyes were torn apart, and in that tent, there were frail old scholars, old experts, and many helpless technicians.

Be quiet. Also among them.

These technicians, they can't do anything when they get to the dam. Tents have been erected at the top of the dam end, and emergency meetings have been held to consider remedies.

The two ends of the dam were supposed to be the safest places with the least stress, but a crack opened and a large-scale collapse occurred. These people didn't even have a chance to react, they were directly engulfed by the flood and rushed out.

Just when everyone was desperate, at a bend in a river in the distance, a heavy cumulonimbus cloud, hanging with thunderbolts and lightning, quickly advanced over.

"Chief, chief. ”

Those guards couldn't help but lift Duan Shoujiang up and ran along the dam.

"Let go of me, let go of me, you bastards!"

A blur of light and shadow surged in the turbid waves, and people who had fallen into the water were thrown high and rolled up to the mountainsides on both sides.

Lu Zheng, who turned into a dragon body, had an incomparably clear vision underwater, distinguishing every figure, whether dead or alive.

A white-faced fat man struggled in the flood, hugged a soldier wearing a life jacket, and shouted: "Save me, save me! I am the deputy director of the Water Resources Bureau, save me!"

The soldier was strangled by him, his face was already red, and his mouth shouted indistinctly: "Let go of me, let go of me!"

"I'm the deputy chief, I can't die! I can't die!"

With a bang, a big wave slapped between the two, and a touch of gold passed through it, separating the two. The warrior was swept up by the waves and tossed ashore.

And the deputy director, looking at a golden giant snake in front of him in horror, flicked his tail slightly, slapped his whole person into the water, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Some people should live, and some people are better off alive than dead.

As he approached the breach of the embankment, Lu Zheng suddenly found a familiar figure in the turbid waves.

Be quiet.

She struggled in the futile water, her face pale, and after a few mouthfuls of water, her eyes closed and she sank deep into the water.

At that moment, her heart was filled with despair.

At that moment, countless scenes flashed quickly in her mind, the difficult childhood, the parents on the sickbed, and even Uncle Wang, who helped her......

She had the best time, but she hadn't enjoyed even a day of life, and she hadn't even talked about a serious relationship.

Her heart was full of fear and unwillingness.

But so what?

When her seriously ill parents heard her bad news, they probably couldn't withstand such a huge blow, maybe she would go one step ahead, and her parents would follow.

Her mind was a mess, her ears were buzzing, and a severe lack of oxygen caused a colorful scene to begin to appear in front of her eyes.

Familiar faces suddenly appeared and disappeared.

Among these people is Lu Zheng, this young man who has not known each other for too long, but has left a good impression on her, she has even fantasized about it in private, fantasizing about whether it is possible for her to be with Lu Zheng.

The answer was uncertain, but she knew she had a crush on him.

Maybe the fish pond is rebuilt, and the two of them work together, and maybe they will fall in love over time.

It would be nice to be alive!

Just when her chaotic consciousness began to shatter, she suddenly felt bursts of warm breath continue to pour into her body, and her body seemed to be fluttering and began to rise upward.

The river water poured into the chest cavity began to flow outward, and the accumulated water in the lungs was emptied instantly. It was warm and comfortable, and her consciousness even woke up in an instant.

In front of her was a dissipating array of colors, and she even thought stupidly, is this what death feels like?

As her body rose, she suddenly felt that something was wrong, and her body seemed to be entangled in something, and she subconsciously opened her eyes.

I saw a body covered with golden scales and as thick as a tree trunk wrapping around her waist, and it was rapidly rushing left and right in the waves.

She saw clearly, saw the huge snake head in front of her.

She was a little dazed for a moment, completely unsure of what was going on.

The serpent carried her ashore, then shook his head and tail into the water, and looked back at her, those eyes that were as divine as candles, seemed to carry human feelings, tenderness, or concern?

Glancing at the giant snake, he was quiet and numb, as if he had been electrocuted, and reacted suddenly.

She is a researcher of water conservancy, and she is very clear about the water veins in various places, and she is also familiar with the legends of dragon kings in various places. The story of the serpent's rescue has appeared in legends in many places.

It is said that it is the water god dragon king in the river.

She didn't believe it, she preferred to believe that there was a spiritual anaconda in the water, and after being deified by the people, the image of the dragon was fabricated.

Looking at the big and amazing giant snake in front of her, her eyes were full of incredulity, and she felt that the eyes of this snake were more brilliant than humans, and even a little familiar.

Just when the giant snake was about to make a splash and was about to leave.

Sitting quietly on the shore, he shouted: "Don't go. ”

The serpent paused, looking at the muddy and sideburns with confusion in his eyes.

Jing didn't know where the courage came from, and shouted, "If you are really the god of the river, please save those innocent people." They are innocent. ”

Jing Jing was on the verge of death just now, even if she was sent to the shore, the final outcome would still be death, so Lu Zheng had to take action in person, control the water in her body, and use her aura to awaken her senses.

exposed his body, he didn't care too much, he just wanted everyone to know that dragons existed, so that he could regain the faith of the dragon king.

This is not a simple act of compassion and pretending to be a virgin, but a great merit, which is conducive to accumulating the belief of the dragon king, the listening pavilion in the water mansion, in charge of the sacrificial incense, Lu Zheng even faintly felt that the Hebo Water Mansion had changed, but he couldn't spare time to check it for the time being.

Good deeds are rewarded, which is of great benefit to Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng did not nod and agree to be quiet, but took a deep look at her, dived into the water, and disappeared.

Standing quietly in the distance, looking at the surging river, nervously staring at the dam breaking in the distance, I began to pray in my heart, if it was really the river god, there would be a way!

Lu Zheng did not go recklessly to block the breach, because that would not work at all, it could only put more pressure on the non-collapsed embankment and open a bigger breach.

It's better to be blocked than to be sparse.

He swam twice in the rushing flood waters, carefully observing the terrain around him.

After the dam collapsed, the flood water went through more than a mile of winding channel before finally being diverted at a bend to the town of Tan Fook downstream.

The bend is made up of four or five hills, two of which are V-shaped, facing the river, and behind it is a wide canyon that connects to the center of the Tonglu Mountains, which is a typical no-man's land.

In Lu Zheng's mind, he suddenly remembered the legendary method of the third prince to divert the flood and lead it to a deserted mountainous area.
