Suddenly, a thunderclap woke Mu Chenghu up, and Mu Chenghu quickly put on his coat and walked out of the tent.

Mu Chenghu raised his head and looked at the sky, only to see that the sky was full of dark clouds, the moon had long been gone, and the wind was blowing.

Mu Chenghu hurriedly asked a few people who were on vigil to call the big guy up.

"Everyone hurry up and move the things on the ox cart to the tent, and the hands and feet are sharper, and the rain may come in a while." Mu Chenghu saw that the big guy got up and quickly arranged it.

Liu Fu watched the men go to carry the grain, thinking that the rain must not be light, and if they don't take protective measures, they are afraid that the grain will be wet, so they said to Zhang, who was about to move the gourd. "Sister-in-law, hurry up and see where there are sticks, find a few and put them there."

Although Zhang didn't understand what the catkins were going to do, they instinctively turned around and looked for the sticks.

After Liu gave the order, Zhang ran to his ox cart and carried the oil paper left over from the tent into the tent.

Liu Wu returned to the tent with a large bundle of oil paper and found that people had already brought in food one after another, but Zhang's stick had not yet been found.

Mu Yao came in with two gourds in her arms and saw the catkins that were a little worried, so she asked, "Mother, hurry up and move the gourds together, don't think too much about this juncture." ”

Liu Wu had to quickly put his worries aside.

Mu Yao thought to herself, sure enough, Jiang was still old and spicy, why didn't she take this layer into account! It's just that I'm going to find a stick somewhere.

Suddenly, Mu Yaofu thought that there were a lot of stones in the camp, so he said, "Mother, I'm afraid it's not easy to find a stick here, or let everyone find a few big stones near the camp." ”

Mu Qingshan, who was standing on the side, listened to the conversation between the two and said, "Okay, you guys hurry up and move the grain, it's important to bring the grain in first." I'll figure out how to deal with the stones. ”

After Mu Qingshan finished speaking, he took a few elderly people who were not very flexible to find suitable stones around the camp.

Mu Chengru, who was beside Mu Chenghu, suddenly said: "The tent is small, and there are too many people, but they don't let go of the toilet, let the children go to the side first!" ”

When Mu Chenghu saw it, he also felt that there were too many people coming and going, not only was the speed reduced a lot, but it was also easy to hurt the children, so he asked Mu Yao and Mu Meixin to take them to the tent next door.

Mu Yao took a group of children to the tent next door, listening to the wind outside the tent and thinking that her group should be able to help a little.

Suddenly, Mu Yao remembered that there were some palm trees in the southeast corner of the camp that she could pick some and set them up in the tent tomorrow. So Mu Yao turned to Mu Meixin and said, "Sister Meixin, you are here to watch these little ones." I'll take a few people over there. ”

"Yaoyao, what are you going to do? Don't mess with the adults at this time. Mu Meixin was afraid that Mu Yao would run around, and hurriedly spoke.

"Sister Mei Xin, am I that kind of person? Don't worry, I'm just going to cut some palm leaves over there and come back for later. Mu Yao explained.

"What's the use of palm leaves, I think you'd better stay in the tent." Mu Meixin looked at Mu Yao with a strange look.

"You'll find out tomorrow." Mu Yao patted Mu Meixin's shoulder and said.

After Mu Yao finished speaking, she pointed to a few children who were similar to herself and said, "You guys, take machetes, and follow me with torches." ”

Not to mention how Mu Yao let a group of half-grown children listen to her greetings, Mu Chenghu encountered a new problem on her side.

After Mu Chenghu and his entourage quickly finished moving the grain, they looked at a group of animals and started a difficulty.

"Chenghu, you can't let this herd of animals get drenched, what if they get sick? We're counting on them for the rest of the journey! Mu Qingshan said with a frown.

Mu Chenghu thought that the rain would have to fall for at least half of the month, so it was better to build a shed for them, so he said, "Or, build a shed for them to shelter from the rain." ”

"That's not necessary! Maybe the rain will stop early tomorrow morning. Mu Chengde said.

Mu Chenghu still wanted to fight for it, but found that it was already raining. Mu Chenghu had to arrange for a few people to tie the cattle to a few trees near the camp.

As soon as Mu Chenghu made the arrangement, he saw a group of children running back from the southeast corner of the camp. The crowd found that the children were still holding things in their hands, so they hurried over to bring them back.

Seeing that the fire was still burning in the camp, Liu Wu hurriedly called two people to move the fire into the tent.

Mu Chenghu saw that everyone had returned to the tent, so he found a few hoes and put them on the stones that Mu Qingshan and the others had brought back, and then put oiled paper on them.

After Mu Chenghu made preparations, he turned around and said to everyone, "Everyone, don't be stunned, move these grains to this place first, so as not to rain and water flow in and wet these grains." ”

The big guy hasn't put all the grain on the oiled paper yet. The rain was pouring down, and in a moment the sky was full of lightning and thunder, and the wind was fierce, and the timid children in the tent were crying.

Suddenly, someone shouted that water was coming in, and the women were busy moving their clothes and bedding to the dry place. Fortunately, the weather was hot, and everyone didn't cover the futon much, so it was relatively quick to clean up.

Mu Chenghu saw that everyone had moved the grain to the oiled paper, so he hurriedly asked everyone to put other luggage on the grain.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and more and more water was flowing into the tents. Mu Chenghu felt that it was impossible to go on like this, so he called a few people with straw hats and hoes to dig two drainage ditches outside the tent.

Seeing that the rain was getting heavier and heavier, Liu Wu arranged for a few people to carry some coal to add to the fire, and asked the children and the old man to sit by the fire quickly to avoid catching cold.

Mu Yao looked at the few people outside the tent who were digging drainage ditches in the rain, turned around and found a few leftover stones just now, built a small stove next to the fire, and boiled a pot of ginger boiling water for them.

Mu Chenghu and the others were soaked after digging the drainage ditch, and as soon as they entered the camp, their families hurriedly sent the clean clothes they had prepared long ago.

A few people just changed their clothes and came to the fire, and everyone hurriedly served the boiled ginger water they had just boiled, and several people felt warm all over their bodies after drinking the boiled ginger water.

Mu Qingshan saw that a few people had eased up, so he said, "Chenghu, do you think we will be in danger here." ”

"Uncle Thirteen, don't worry, we won't be in danger for the time being." Mu Chenghu said affirmatively.

"Well, you said it had only been raining for a while, and the water was coming in from outside." Mu Qingliu also said with a sad face.

"I don't think we'll be able to make it tomorrow." Mu Ergou said with some concern.

"Tomorrow, let's talk about it! Let's squeeze in tonight! Mu Chenghu thought that there was still a lot of work to do tomorrow, so he urged everyone to go to bed quickly.

Mu Chenghu only slept for a while when he heard someone shouting that the rain was leaking, Mu Chenghu had to open his tired eyes and find a wooden basin with everyone, and the jar and the like to catch water everywhere.

When the rain began to light up when it was almost dawn, Mu Chenghu and the others basically didn't sleep all night.
