In the past two or three months, the work of building canals and dams has become more and more intense.

Scholars who specialize in this area assume that it will take about two years to complete the construction of the canal. This year has come to an end, and the remaining projects are not the most difficult, and they can be carried out by leaving Nan Luyuan and others.

Therefore, Nanluyuan and the scholars decided to spend the New Year in the south of the Yangtze River, so they continued to go south and went to the southern Fujian region to manage water.

By the month before the Chinese New Year, the winter flood came as scheduled. Although the roughly formed canal will not be affected much by the winter flood, Nan Luyuan and others still take turns to the shore to survey the water situation day and night in a cautious mind, so as to prevent problems before they occur.

Lu Liuhui accompanied Nan Luyuan as usual.

On this day, the two of them carried lanterns to patrol along the river as usual, and suddenly Nan Luyuan's heart was a little uneasy. He keenly felt that something was going to happen tonight, so he told Lu Liuhui about this worry.

Lu Liuhui asked him, "Then do you want to continue patrolling?" ”

Nan Luyuan's face was solemn, he just thought for a moment, and then said: "Let's go down, I suspect that someone may want to attack the canal." ”

Lu Liuhui listened to it and felt that there was some truth, although he had been safe and sound since this month. The two walked all the way to the area where the water was flowing at its fastest, and where the center of the dam was located. The closer he got here, the more apprehensive he became, even though he knew that there were few ways to destroy a dam in a short period of time.

The two of them were walking to the midpoint of the dam when suddenly Nan Luyuan felt something float on his face. Fine, powdery, he wiped it, glanced at it by the dim light, and wondered, "Flour, or crushed stone powder?" ”

Lu Liuhuan turned his head to look at the fine white powder in his hand, and said, "No matter what it is, such a delicate thing shouldn't appear here." ”

As if she suddenly thought of something, her face changed, and she extinguished the candle flame of the lamp in her hand with one palm.

Nan Luyuan was still a little puzzled, but he heard Lu Liuyu whisper: "The fine powder will explode when it encounters open flames, if the amount is large, there are more than 20 bags, and it will not be a problem to blow up the dam in this area." ”

Nan Luyuan's heart froze, and he glanced at Lu Liulian, and said softly: "Go to the dam and have a look." ”

The two of them deliberately hid their figures, which showed a point, and built a dam in a few arrow steps on the wall.

There were really people on the dam, four or five, dressed in black and masked, hidden in the night, as if they were using knives to slide the bags piled on the dam, and something like smoke and dust spilled out of the slippery cracks, flying everywhere with the winter wind.

Then they were picked up and scattered around.

Nan Luyuan silently sneaked over, and before one of them seemed to be about to ignite the fire, he flew up and kicked his hand away!

Before the man could react, he was restrained by Nan Luyuan's backhand, and his face was pressed to the ground.

The person who poured the powder sensed that something was wrong, and quickly threw down the bag, and in the midst of the smoke, reached out to pick up the flint in his arms!

Several people around him had already drawn their swords and forced towards Nan Luyuan.

Nan Luyuan broke the wrist of the person under him, and he didn't care about hearing the man's screams, so he hurriedly dodged a few swords that met him, and his body shook, and he was already forced to the edge.

The person with the flint in the middle hurriedly took the opportunity to wipe it away with the flint and steel-

His arms detached from his body in an instant!

Blood suddenly splashed in everyone's sight, and before the man could scream, he was kicked into the roaring lake by a woman who fell from the sky!

The two flints were also kicked into the water by her one step back.

When everyone was stunned, Nan Luyuan, who was already in a desperate situation, leaned back, pulled out the Han Shu Sword from his waist, and picked up everyone's swords, and then luck, with the help of his waist, bounced back, passed through the gaps of everyone, and overturned the people who came over with his backfoot to the ground.

Lu Liuhui walked over, gave a kick to him, and then looked at the powder flying all over the ground in front of him with both hands on his chest, subconsciously pinched his nose, and looked sideways at Nan Luyuan: "What do you think?" ”

Nan Luyuan's face was not very good, and he probably didn't expect his worries to come true, and he felt a little angry when he thought of what kind of disastrous consequences would be brought if they did this.

As for the powder, he covered his nose and glanced at it, and said, "Flour, it is written on the bag." ”

Lu Liuhui let out an "oh", looked at the people who were put down by Nan Luyuan, touched his chin and said, "It's not bad, the dying insects will also bite back." ”

Nan Luyuan said: "I guess it's also Chen Ying's remnants." ”

"Don't guess, Liu Lianzi is inside." Lu Liuyu said, hooked the chin of the person whose wrist was broken by Nan Luyuan with his foot, looked at it carefully, and said, "Old man Chen Ying's brother-in-law is here, and he must have nothing to do with him." ”

Nan Luyuan frowned lightly and said, "I have been dormant for more than eight months, but I can be regarded as appearing." ”

Lu Liuhui clapped his hands, lifted one and threw it under the dam: "You can't kill them, so it saves trouble." ”

Although Nan Luyuan felt that this was not good, but he thought that these villains deserved it, so he rolled up his sleeves and followed Lu Liuyu to throw people under the dam, listening to the movement of the flesh smashing on the ground, he was inexplicably relieved, and he was not so angry.

The two men packed up the flour and poured it into the water, gathered up the bags, and then went down to the dam. These people on the ground were all unable to move, and they didn't have the strength to resist when they looked at it, so Nan Luyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Liuyan gently poked Nan Luyuan with his arm and said, "To solve such a big matter, you have to drink two cups together when you go back to ease your body." ”

As soon as Nan Luyuan wanted to say "yes", he saw a person suddenly appearing in the grass not far away, holding a dagger until Lu Liuhuan!

The dagger is full of cold light!

In just a moment, he didn't even have time to think, and pulled Lu Liulu behind him!

The dagger grazed the position of Lu Liuxuan and cut a bloody mark on Nan Luyuan's chest, and the tip of the dagger brought a burst of blood mist. Before the black shadow could stand still, Lu Liuhui pounced from Nanluyuan, and the cold light flashed in the dark night, only to see her pull out two short knives from her waist, and immediately cut the arm of the black shadow holding the knife!

The black shadow roared unwillingly, but was helplessly suppressed by Lu Liulu.

Nan Luyuan gasped, gently pressed his hand on the wound, his eyes were cold, as if he was hiding thousands of sword blades, and his eyes were light, like the open eyes of a tiger and leopard slowly approaching in the night.

But he didn't make any out-of-the-ordinary moves, just said: "Chen Ying, you are so bold." ”

Chen Ying roared, looking like a madman: "Nan Yan! I want you dead! You and this Lu Cai, neither you can live! ”

Lu Liuhui pressed him while jokingly: "The little woman is not called Lu Cai, but Lu Xi, Lu Liuhui, have you heard of it?" ”

Chen Ying cleft: "You cut off my future, I'm not happy, don't think about it!" Let's die here together! ”

Nan Luyuan suddenly felt bad, so he took a step forward and took Lu Liuyuan to his side.

At the same time, Chen Ying raised her voice and said, "Release the arrow!" ”

Suddenly, as far as the eye could see, dozens of clear yellow photoelectric lights slowly amplified, and a fierce arrow wind came to the face!

Nan Luyuan instinctively threw Lu Liulu out of the range of the rain of arrows!

The next moment, the flaming arrow body roared with a piercing sound, and crashed into the tumbling and roaring water with Nan Luyuan's body ratio!

A moment before entering the water, Nan Luyuan heard Lu Liuyu call his name sharply.

Then he saw that Chen Ying's head was flying up in the night.

Then the raging tide submerged him, and his ears, nose, eyes, and mouth were filled with an icy liquid.

The wounds on his body were in sharp pain, and the waves almost broke his muscles and bones. He felt himself being pushed against a sharp reef, and there was a big cut in his back, and he didn't know whether to feel unfortunate or glad that it wasn't in his chest.

There was a violent burning sensation in the heart and lungs, and it seemed that after a long time, the burning sensation disappeared and was replaced by a slight and unreal dizziness. He couldn't see anything anymore, and gradually even the feeling seemed to fade.

At this time, he suddenly felt a white dress appear in front of him.

A faint scent of goose pear enveloped him.

.........

...

The cold wind whimpered, and it seemed that a thick layer of snow had fallen, and it was bitterly cold.

Lying on the shore downstream lay a young man, covered in blood, staining the nearby stones and the water of the lake with a thin layer of ice red.

There were children playing, and when they saw this scene, they were so frightened that they cried and went home to find adults. Several villagers boldly looked for each other, looking at a young man with a beautiful face, and whether there were any traces of others nearby, and seeing that he was covered in blood and pitiful, they carried it back.

A few villagers muttered for a long time, and the strongest villagers carried him home, let his mother-in-law see it, and told him that there was still some breath left, so he was greatly relieved, and his brother invited Langzhong, and he was rescued.

The boy was in a coma for two days before he slowly woke up. Hearing the couple tell him what happened, he thanked him sincerely, and explained his identity and how he fell off in a clear manner. The matter of the imperial court ordering officials to control the water caused a stir in Jiangnan, and the entire Jiangnan, regardless of men, women, and children, knew about it to a greater or lesser extent. Therefore, after listening to Nan Luyuan's narration, the couple did not suspect it, and quickly informed the neighbors, and hundreds of people watched for a while, and then gathered together the man who pulled the carriage at the entrance of the village, and asked him to send Nan Luyuan back to Maocheng intact.

Nan Luyuan sat in the carriage all the way, and felt pain all over his body, especially the wound on his back, I am afraid that it has hurt his muscles and bones. But he still has doubts, how did he survive being swept up in the flood when there was a big flood?

If he says that luck is too good, he doesn't believe it.

But manpower alone can't compete with the flood at all, and on the premise of self-preservation, can we rescue individuals?

For some reason, a white dress appeared in his mind.

I couldn't see the man's face clearly, but for no reason, I felt that I seemed to smell a warm fragrance, which was incompatible with the chill that the person was all over.

The carriage stopped in front of Zhang's house.
