There was a muffled rumble, followed by the crackling sound of heavy rain hitting the roof. www.biquge.info The rain had been making noise on the roof for a long time, and suddenly a flash of lightning flashed in the sky, illuminating the night. Immediately after, thunder exploded.

"Ah...... Mom...... Fear! The man hurriedly fumbled for the flint at the head of the bed, ready to light the pine oil lamp at the head of the bed, while the woman hurriedly picked up the crying baby girl, patted the child's back, and hummed a soft song.

The lamp at the head of the bed lit up, and a small faint fire warmed up the room. The woman earnestly coaxed the child in her arms, and the man put on his clothes, walked to the window, and lifted the thatched window. It was summer, but when the window was lifted, a cold wind still poured in, followed by a shower of rain.

"It's big again?" The woman asked softly.

The man was silent for a while, sighed and said, "It's a big ...... again" After speaking, he began to put on his clothes, and now it was dark outside, so that no lamp could be lit in the rain like the sea pouring down, but the staggered lightning made the night sky constantly reflect the night sky into day.

"If you want to go out, call Shangyi, two people are together, it's always safer......" The woman saw the man getting dressed, knew that he was going out, and felt uneasy in her heart, such a big wind and rain, for fear that he would have some accidents.

The man did not speak, but walked back to the woman, kissed her forehead gently, and then put on a thatched hat and robe, and went into the wind and rain.

Although the torches have failed, for the sake of safety, all the pavilions in the tribe are lit with lights, although they have little effect, but they will not lose sight of the warriors who patrol the night.

Before the man had taken a few steps, someone trotted over him, and when he saw the man, he knelt down and said, "Chief, the warehouse has been washed down by the water, go and take a look!" ”

However, the man was not too anxious, changed the original route, and followed the visitor to the warehouse first.

This man is none other than Long Qiupeng, the father of crossbowmen, after the famous dragon god in the vicinity. Under the pretext of the doom removal ceremony, the individual crossbow was launched to deter the elders and leaders of various clans for three years.

In the past three years, no one in the elders and leaders of the nearby tribes dared to compete with Long Qiupeng, and this flood, which I heard had lasted for many years, turned three sides of the Long tribe into an ocean or a pond, whether Long Qiupeng wanted to go out, or someone else wanted to come over, it was impossible for the time being.

Long Qiupeng was happy to take advantage of this free time to build his own new city seriously.

In the first summer that Long Qiupeng spent in the Long tribe, the lake flooded again, and although the higher terrain of the Long tribe and several of its affiliated tribes were less affected, several neighboring tribes were also hit almost devastatingly.

Long Qiupeng took the opportunity to annex several tribes and obtained a more abundant labor force. Although the construction of the new city is huge, the construction speed has been significantly improved after the additional manpower has been dispatched.

But in the summer of the following year, the flood was already very fierce, and Haicun became the first village in the Long tribe to be affected by the flood. Long Qiupeng hesitated and disbanded the tribesmen of Hai Village, some of whom stayed in Huoshen Village to continue boat construction and fishing, while others moved to the former site of the Tiannu Department to help the Great Lake speed up the process of speeding up construction.

A few days before the start of this summer, and before the temperature had risen, the rain came again. Long Qiupeng was walking briskly in this rainy night. In the flickering firelight, Long Qiupeng followed the messenger to the site of the collapsed warehouse.

"Chief!" Lu had already begun to command everyone to start busy, and when he saw Long Qiupeng coming, he greeted him. Yi on the side also bowed respectfully to him.

Long Qiupeng looked at Yi for a while and asked, "Aren't you supposed to be resting, why are you here?" ”

Yi lowered his head and did not speak. But even if he didn't say it, Long Qiupeng could guess that Yi was afraid that Lu would not be able to keep busy alone, so he refused to rest.

He frowned, patted Yi's shoulder and said, "I have received your heart, but if you let you rest, you have to rest, if you continue to consume it like this, your body can't stand it, and if you delay your work, you will be guilty of a great crime!" ”

This sentence, Long Qiupeng said that it was not completely to deceive Yi, after all, Yi now needs to monitor the changes in the water level of the lake during the day, and he has to get up in the middle of the night to take people to inspect, for fear that something will happen in the water, and everyone can deal with it as soon as possible.

But if Yi insists on going his own way and consuming it, I'm afraid he won't have so much energy to observe the changes in the water level.

In the rainy night, Long Qiupeng couldn't see Yi's expression clearly, but he felt that his appearance was very cramped, and he seemed to realize that his problem was serious.

Long Qiupeng's purpose was just to let him know the seriousness of this matter, and he didn't mean to blame him at all, seeing that he was repentant, he said with a little comfort: "Okay, you go to the waterside to patrol again, and then go to rest quickly." I'll leave it to me and the deer to deal with it. ”

Yi hesitated, nodded and left. The remaining Long Qiupeng and Lu continued to lead some of the clansmen to rescue and clean up the warehouse.

"If you see Yi's "fatigue homework" in the future, let him go back, and if he doesn't listen, you will call someone to come to me. He had to let him change his stinky problem. Looking at Yi's back disappearing into the rainy night, Long Qiupeng first said a word to the deer, then turned his head to look at the deer, and then cared about the damage to the warehouse and said, "Is the clay pot where the grain and seeds are put in okay?" ”

The deer replied, "The roof has collapsed, and some of the clay pots have been smashed, and it must have been flooded with water in such a heavy rain." But the rest of the parts are considered to be in good condition. ”

Long Qiupeng wanted to get into the collapsed warehouse and see the situation with his own eyes. But seeing the people coming and going, they were very busy cleaning up, and he felt that he didn't need to go in and add to the chaos.

In the end, he just instructed the deer: "You can't put the grain that has been soaked in water, and send it to the back early tomorrow morning for people to cook." The remaining clay pots are moved to a nearby dry room and stored for the time being, and then dried and filled when the weather improves slightly. Other things are also temporarily classified and stored according to whether they have been in water or not, and are transferred to other rooms. ”

The deer nodded, but didn't do anything. Long Qiupeng knew that it seemed that Lu had already explained these things to the workers below, and what he had to do now was to watch the clansmen move things to a safer place as soon as possible before the warehouse completely collapsed.
