Chapter 59 is helpless

When Zhang Shuting was so puzzled, he had actually just returned home from the pot and was sitting in the upper room for dinner, but after just two bites, he heard the rapid sound of gongs and shouts, and it suddenly burst like water fried in an oil pot.

"Boss, let's go, it's water! There was a flood outside the city! With this hurried shout, I saw Xiao Luo and two shop guys also hurriedly broke into the courtyard.

"Quick, owner, Shopkeeper Qi let us come over and quickly transfer you to the city wall! There is a lot of water outside the city, and it is pouring into the city! Xiao Luo rushed into the upper room, saw Zhang Shuting, and didn't wait for him to wonder what to say, and said hurriedly, and after speaking, he hurriedly instructed the shopkeeper who brought it, "You two carry two old ladies, I will hold the two children, and you ...... the owner."

"Xiao Luo, this is ......" At this time, although Zhang Shuting also had a premonition that the matter was urgent, he still asked with some puzzlement. Of course, I don't understand it, but now that the rain has stopped, why is there water again?

"Come on, boss, let the old men, women and children go up to the city wall, and let the strong laborers go to the city gate to block the city gate." Xiao Luo explained, and eagerly and involuntarily reached out and hugged Zhang Shuting's pair of children - Zhang Ruonan, Zhang Ping'an's sister and brother.

Seeing that the two guys also walked over quickly and picked up the two old ladies on their backs, Zhang Shuting didn't say anything anymore, and quickly picked up his wife Zhang Haoshi, pulled Zhang Yuping with one hand, blew out the candles, and followed Xiao Luo and they hurriedly walked out.

By this time, it was already completely dark. As soon as I blew out the candles and came out of the house, I felt that it was as dark as ink.

Zhang Shuting cautiously poked his steps down the steps. At this time, Xiao Luo was holding the two children, and the two men carried the two old ladies to the bottom of the steps. Although Zhang Shuting couldn't see them, he could already hear their wading sound very clearly.

For a while, Zhang Shuting couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. The water had already flooded into the courtyard, and I didn't even know it. When he went down to the bottom of the steps in a trance, he felt that the cold water had passed his feet, and Zhang Shuting couldn't help but shiver like a spirit, and it was only at this time that he seemed to hear the faint sound of running water in the courtyard.

And then look further south, on the city wall, where the hall was still silent when eating, there was a flickering of fire, the shouts of people, and the cries of children.

"How about the pot, Xiao Luo?" Zhang Shuting couldn't help but ask eagerly.

"There shouldn't be a big problem with the pot, when we came out, Shopkeeper Qi and Lao Sun had already led everyone to block the door. After the shopkeeper Qi asked us to escort the proprietor's family to the city wall, he didn't let us go back to the pot, so he went to the city gate to guard the city gate with the people organized by the county office. ”

Zhang Shuting didn't say anything. He only felt that the further he walked in the direction of the city wall, the deeper the water beneath his feet, and his heart seemed to sink little by little.

Of course, his first feeling was that the newly acquired sorghum on the south side of the pot might be completely destroyed this time.

Of course, this feeling does not come out of nowhere. Because from the house to the gate of the city, and then to the steps up to the city wall, it is only about three hundred steps. But when he walked slowly and came to the bottom of the steps of the city wall, Zhang Shuting also clearly felt that the water had quickly overflowed his thighs.

At this time, according to Xiao Luo's intentions, two old men, wives and three children were placed on the city wall, so that Zhang Shuting would also stay on the city wall, and they would go down to block the city gate. But where can Zhang Shuting stay? He lay on the stomp and looked out of the city, although it was also dark outside the city, and he couldn't see anything, but the sound of rushing water seemed to fill the whole world.

At this time, Zhang Shuting's heart was almost desperate. Therefore, without saying a word, he went down the city wall and paddled the water that was already waist-deep. Walk towards the pot.

But at this time, he felt that the rapidly rising water was no longer rising. When he paddled to the place where the sorghum was stacked, he saw that not only a large part of the sorghum pile, which looked like a hill, was soaked in water, but also most of the sorghum hoards that looked like yurts were also soaked in water.

At this time, looking at the pot yard, there were lights burning everywhere again. When I got to the front door of the pot, the door was already blocked with straw bags as high as one person, and the door and windows of the store were almost completely blocked.

"Is it the owner?" A guy who saw someone under the door climbing up the straw bag and leaning on the top of the straw bag to observe the water level asked.

"Pull me up!" Zhang Shuting said to the guy, and at the same time stretched out a hand to him with a little trembling.

At this time, others are not clear, but Zhang Shuting himself is very clear. He knew that if the water in the pot yard was boiled at this time, needless to say waist-deep, even to the base of his thigh, the water might overflow the straw bags on the mouth of the retort and fill the cellar. At that time, the pot that has been burning for hundreds of years will really be destroyed in his hands.

For a while, Zhang Shuting had a feeling of crying again. So, as the fellow dragged him out of the water, his heart rose to his throat.

However, thank God, when Zhang Shuting came to the courtyard, fortunately, the water in the courtyard was not deep, and there was the depth of the feet, and under the light, some guys were using straw bags full of soil to raise the height of the door, and some guys were running around.

Zhang Shuting mentioned the heart of his throat and eyes, and put it back into his stomach slightly.

"How about Zhankui, it's not a big problem, right?" Zhang Shuting found Qi Zhankui, who was at the door of the warehouse and raised the door of the warehouse with Tian and asked.

"Fortunately, the old grandson who was guarding the sorghum in the south found it early, and everyone started quickly and didn't let the water into the courtyard." Qi Zhankui said, "If you want me to look at it, it shouldn't be a big problem. ”

"What about Lao Sun?"

"Old Sun, Master Cui, Old Yang, they are all in the middle courtyard!"

Zhang Shuting hurriedly walked to the middle courtyard. When I came to the middle courtyard, I saw Cui Dahai and Lao Yang also carrying a guy with soju to raise the height of the straw bag on the mouth of the retort. Seeing Zhang Shuting coming over, they barely raised their heads. Looking at the crowd again, there is still no grandson.

Zhang Shuting couldn't tell why he had to find Lao Sun, but he just had a desire to see him and wanted to say something to him. In other words, he always felt that tens of thousands of buckets of sorghum were destroyed in the water because he didn't listen to Lao Sun's opinion earlier.

"Where's Lao Sun?" Zhang Shuting saw Lao Yang approaching, so he asked Lao Yang.

"Fill the backyard with dirt!" Lao Yang wiped a handful of sweat on his face and replied.

Zhang Shuting walked to the backyard again. Zhang Shuting walked to the backyard, and suddenly felt that his real purpose was not to find Lao Sun, or to say something to him, he just had to go around to rest assured.

When I came to the backyard, I saw that the back door was almost blocked. All the animals were led into the courtyard again. Lao Sun and a few buddies in the backyard were nervously loading straw bags next to the big mound in the backyard, and saw the guys in the front yard or the middle yard constantly coming, holding the poles in pairs to carry them.

Zhang Shuting also did not slack off to find a shovel and load the soil with Lao Sun and them, but he couldn't help but ask while waving the shovel to load the soil:

"Why did you find out that this big water came to Lao Sun?"

"After the shift guy arrived, Xiao Luo and I just wanted to go back to the pot for dinner, I felt that there was water under our feet, and it seemed to be coming from the direction of the city gate, so I wanted to look outside the city gate, who knew that the deeper the water went to the city gate, the worse it was, so I hurriedly ran to the pot, at this time, the gong also sounded on the city street, and I knew that water was sent outside the city." Lao Sun said as he spoke, and his hands did not stop.
