Chapter 111: A mudslide hits
After Mo Xiaofei left, Wang Liancheng said to Anya, "You did a good job, he doesn't know what the woman last night looked like, ha, he's just a small person who was inadvertently promoted by me." ”
Wang Liancheng despised Mo Xiaofei, because it was his own reward, Mo Xiaofei didn't even dare to ask him to meet the woman last night, not what Xiaomin was.
Anya bowed and said in a flat tone, "My lord, the matter has been done, I want to go out and relax." ”
With his head slightly bowed, he looked extremely dignified.
Wang Liancheng saw that Anya was expressionless, and said comfortingly, "Well, this matter has wronged you, and I can't find anyone for the time being, so it's okay to go out and relax, I will take Lu Renyi's matter to heart." ”
There are some things that Anya has to mention in front, and after talking to Mo Xiaofei, she is also extremely ashamed in her heart, "My lord, Anya will never do what happened last night." ”
Wang Liancheng really arranged Anya in temporarily, and when he took in Anya for the roster, he obviously couldn't ask for any clues, so it didn't matter if he stayed at this time.
"Hmm." With a slight squeak, Wang Liancheng left with his hands behind his back.
Anya didn't say goodbye to Mo Xiaofei, packed up and left the governor's yamen, her heart was full of feelings, maybe she didn't know how to face it.
The officials from all over the country who were summoned had to go back, but Wang Liancheng still reminded everyone before leaving.
In the hall, Wang Liancheng stood up and paced back and forth, inspecting everyone's expressions.
"This time Benfu summoned the big guys, and the intention is not to guess, that is, to communicate with everyone more, there is not much time for Benfu on weekdays, so there is less time to get together, I want you to understand that Benfu is your strong backing, no matter what happens in the future, you must report to Benfu as soon as possible."
After the most embarrassing Wang Liancheng's gaze fell on Mo Xiaofei's indifferent face, he said, "Benfu doesn't like to go to the morning and evening, and similarly, other feudal officials don't like such people, if you leave my protection, how long can you be under the hands of others, um." ”
Wang Liancheng made it clear that he had already had a history of rebellion from his subordinates to other places, would others treat you as a descendant.
Everyone bowed their heads and didn't dare to speak, only Mo Xiaofei still had an indifferent expression, like a person who had never seen the world, shaking his head from side to side, looking at the furnishings in the hall.
I didn't put my mind on what Wang Liancheng said, because I was still a little drunk, so I was still thinking about the internal force, and through my own thoughts, I felt the existence of the dantian.
Wang Liancheng's words were finally finished, Mo Xiaofei deliberately walked around the governor's yamen, and packed up his bags and delayed very much, because he wanted to see Anya again, and he always felt that he should say something, but he couldn't find Anya's trace.
Mo Xiaofei sat in a carriage, passing through Baiqu County, the sun was about to set, although the sunset in the distance was red, but a dark cloud above his head was moving rapidly, and there was a feeling that the wind and rain were coming.
"My lord, are you still in a hurry, in my opinion, we have to spend the night in Baiqu County, we can't pass under Wuluo Mountain, we have to take a detour, I'm afraid it's too late to rush back to Wuxian."
The handlebar stopped the carriage and looked back at the curtain to preach.
Mo Xiaofei thought for a while and said, "Keep going, I'll add money to you, let's go." ”
Mo Xiaofei was a little anxious in his heart, although the daily affairs were handled by the Wuliang family, but whether there would be a mudslide in Wuluo Mountain had always been a knot in his heart, he was not in Wuxian County, and the control was definitely not enough, if there were many people passing under Wuluo Mountain because of saving time, what if something happened.
In these years, it is not a big deal to die a person, but Mo Xiaofei attaches great importance to it, human life is only once, no matter who it is, they are all equal, and they are all qualified to find beautiful things in this world.
At the foot of Mount Uro.
More than a dozen coolies sat on a few large rocks to rest, the weather was a little cold, but these people all pulled the corners of their clothes to their faces and fanned the breeze, and they were really tired and hot after a day's work.
The blackened face and neck, a few white lines appeared under the sweat, and the coolies were surrounded by tools, shovels and hoes, and they were the people hired by Wang Youcai to build the road.
The county government has said that people are not allowed to pass along the foot of Wuluo Mountain, and go back and forth between Wuxian and Baiqu County, but Wang Youcai did not take these into account, and when he reached the progress of construction one day earlier, he could find a day to ask the county government for a few percent of the silver, which was his top priority.
Therefore, the coolies eat and sleep at the foot of Wuluo Mountain, and they are busy at this time.
"Seeing this day, it should be raining heavily, and there is no tent in the place where we sleep, or let's go back to the county and continue to do it tomorrow morning."
A coolie looked up at the sky, as if the day had been exhausted, and he looked tired and struggling with his head raised.
Another coolie clasped his legs together and said happily, "Can you go back, when we walk back to the county, the city gate is closed, and those officials will not open the city gate for us people, I see, let's get drenched here in the rain tonight, just take a bath, I haven't washed for three days, hehe." ”
There is a small stream behind them, which flows down from the mountain and continues all year round.
A coolie squatted by the stream and washed his face, then stood up and said, "Why is this water so sticky?" ”
"Ha Lu Ha ......"
The coolies nearby burst into laughter, for the man's face was covered with muddy water, and he couldn't even tell what he looked like.
In the midst of the laughter, one of the coolies said suspiciously, "Hey, no, the water in this creek has always been very clear, why is it so muddy today, what happened upstream?" ”
The rain came as soon as it was said, and the bean-sized droplets fell from the sky and hit everyone's faces.
There was more and more water in the creek, and the water rushed down so fast that it was beyond the width of the creek, and in addition to a large amount of yellow mud, there were many weeds and leaves.
Boom Boom Boom ......
There was a roar like thunder, and the stream was flowing faster and faster, as if there was some monster on the mountain, and everything was so abnormal.
A coolie jumped down from the rock, "What's the matter, why did my head suddenly feel a little dizzy, did you feel the ground near me just now?" ”
"No, aren't you too nervous, isn't it going to rain?"
"No, you see ...... above."
Everyone's heads looked up at the hill at the same time, and it was not enough to describe their amazement, as if they were frightened by the sight.
There was a large wave of muddy water above, no, it was not water anymore, to be precise, because there were a large number of boulders and thick trees, and these heavy objects, which seemed to be impossible to move easily, now looked like small stones and thin branches, driven by the muddy water, and slid down from above without the slightest resistance.
Not only the top of the people's heads, but the whole of Urro seemed to tremble, the top of the mountain was gone, and the top of the pointed point was so flat that they mixed with the rain, and swept away the boulders and thick trees with great vigour, and washed down from the top to the sides.
"Run, it's a landslide!"
His voice was full of desperation, and his eyes welled up with confusion.
The sky had completely darkened, darkness and fear were overwhelming, and the howls were getting louder and closer, and some of the quick-reacting coolies had already scattered in all directions, trying to escape from this terrible area.
And the slow-reacting and frightened coolies stood motionless, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking, perhaps they only deeply realized at this moment that death was so near.
The muddy water is mixed with all kinds of things, and those who do not stay continue to descend, they are things that have no thoughts, no consciousness and no emotions, so they open their "bloody mouths", swallow the stomachs of several coolies who stopped in place, and continue to chase the running coolies.
Because the torrential rain continued to fall, such a big movement did not cause dust and smoke, flying sand and rocks, and it felt that everything was still so calm, but it was very dark and quiet here.
"My lord, look what's going on in the east!"
The handlebars kept hurrying, and the continuous roaring loud noise he thought was only the sound of rolling thunder in the distance, but when it was dark in the distance, with a thick fog filling the entire east.
Mo Xiaofei already regretted it in his heart, he had already listened to the handlebar style when he knew the road, and spent one night in Baiqu County, the rain was too big, there was no shelter from the rain in this carriage, some rain had already penetrated in, the humidity was heavy, the wind was strong, and the carriage was not stable, but fortunately, Mo Xiaofei did not have the problem of motion sickness.
Pulling open the curtain, Mo Xiaofei looked to the east in the rain.
Sure enough, it was black and numb, and the rain at that end was even more manic than the top of his head, and it was already dark at night, and the east was almost a black hollow, and the darkness was deep, as if something had sunk in, and was spinning wildly around him.
Wrong!
To the east, isn't that exactly the direction of Mount Uro?
Something happened there, this phenomenon is not caused by ordinary weather, not good, bad!
What Mo Xiaofei was most worried about and feared still happened, there was a mudslide in Wuluo Mountain!
Mo Xiaofei quickly calculated the distance, it would take a long time to return to Wuxian County at this time, and the time to return to Baiqu County was very short, Mo Xiaofei made a decision, "Brother, trouble you, we have to go to Baiqu County immediately, and go straight to the county government non-stop, brother, I will add some more silver to you." ”
The handlebar style was a little confused, didn't I have psychological preparation just now, and I had to rush back to Wuxian without hindrance.
The handlebar dared to say, "My lord, I've walked a long way, why don't we go back to Wuxian, it's okay if I'm tired." ”
I can already go home to rest, and I can do it with more effort, so I don't want to turn back to Baiqu County with the handlebar style, if I go back, I won't have to go this way tomorrow.
Mo Xiaofei understood the meaning of the handlebar, but Mo Xiaofei himself was not afraid of the heavy rain on the way.
Mo Xiaofei patted the handlebar on the back, "Brother, I'm afraid that something big has happened in the direction of Wuluo Mountain, I need to contact the Baiqu County Ya immediately to see if there are any casualties near Wuluo Mountain, and lives are at stake!" ”
The handlebar style instantly understood, turned his head, and pulled the reins hard, "Turn around and go back to Baiqu County, adults sit tight!" ”
