Chapter 181: The Butterfly Effect

Xia Ting and the second brother glanced at each other and took the lead in leading the younger brothers to take action.

"Use all the pots and pans, use all the places where you can get water, hurry up and put out the fire! Don't let it spread to us! Gu commanded forcefully.

Their shops, including the men's houses, are all here, and they will be the first to suffer when the fire comes in.

"Colleagues, are there eggs under the nest? Don't sit idly by, our house is made of wood, and it burns at a moment! Can you still turn a blind eye? Xia Ting stood at the head of the city, shouting at those who were indifferent.

"Yes, yes, what the Gu family said makes sense. Brothers, act fast!! In the end, all the merchants in the west of the city mobilized and fought the fire together with the officers and soldiers.

However, when the county officials came and took their actions, they had already lost the best time to put out the fire, and after exhausting all the methods they could imagine, the fire was still getting bigger and bigger, and the momentum that swept through Chunjiang Town became more and more vigorous.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the county officials dispatched all the officers and soldiers and called on the masses in Chunjiang Town to put out the fire.

Xia Ting poured a bucket of water again, his hands were numb, and the fire was still approaching. Unlike the others' increasingly anxious expressions, Xia Ting calmed down instead, her eyes filled with determination and composure. She stopped, walked over to the blind county official with a bucket of water, and said, "There's no way to go on like this." ”

The county magistrate's eyes were red, and he shouted, "It's useful to tell me this now?" It's impossible for me to give up. If you want to go, hurry up! ”

In addition to these people who put out fires, many people with a small amount of money hurriedly fled with their money, leaving only those who could not escape and those who did not want to escape.

"We'll have to think of something else." Xia Ting looked at the Liuxi River that ran through Chunjiang Town and made up his mind.

When the county magistrate saw her movements, he hesitated: "What do you want to do?" ”

At this time, Gu ran over, his clothes were already completely wet, and he didn't know if it was sweat or the water that was spilled too intensely during the handling process, which was very different from his usual image, he was not surprised to see Xia Ting, Xia Ting's heart moved, they ...... Same purpose.

"My lord, the fire is already very difficult to extinguish. We have to draw water to extinguish the fire. Gu directly explained his intentions.

The county magistrate looked at Xia Ting, then at Gu, and compromised: "Then do you have a way?" ”

"Smash!"

Xia Ting and Gu said in unison.

The river was blocked by a high embankment at the gate, leaving only a few holes to circulate underground. Now, all they have to do is smash all the holes open so that the water from the river can rush out and keep the raging fire at bay.

There were too few people, and Xia Ting also joined in, smashing it down with a hoe and a hammer, and every blow was a real return of strength. In a few clicks, Xia Ting's hands were already bruised, the palms were already worn and eaten, and the pure flesh and blood were carrying.

"Hurry up! It's already at the door! Suddenly, someone shouted in terror.

Just when the county magistrate felt that the sky was going to kill him, Qiu Ye brought a team of people and quickly joined the team that smashed the river. Judging from the movements and strength, it is obvious that these are not ordinary people, but well-trained and real soldiers!

Xia Ting's mind was full of only "chisel chisel", the noise around her disappeared in her world, she could feel that the air around her was getting hotter and hotter, and she didn't need to be said by others, she also knew that time was running out.

"Girl, let's go! It's too late. The county magistrate said as he slammed it on the side.

Xia Ting shook his head, and went down with another hoe, but the hoe actually flew away, leaving a stick.

"Pavilion, you go quickly, don't look back!" In the end, even Gu was not calm.

Xia Ting shook his head again: "I can't escape." ”

Even if she is energetic now, and she runs away at the speed of a 100-meter race, it is almost impossible to reach the imminent fire.

"It's coming! This place has been chiseled open! Let's keep up the hard work! Qiu Ye let out a loud shout, cheering up his spirits.

Hercules are all digging around that piece, Xia Ting threw down the stick, panted, turned to his back, and looked at the fire that looked down on humanity like a king, it was terrifying, at this moment, you can't help but realize the insignificance of human beings and the weakness of their strength, in the face of nature's punishment, human beings are vulnerable.

But! Xia Ting condensed the qi in his chest, and every chisel was infinitely amplified in his mind, as if it was chiseled on everyone's body

The fire and the gates were wrestling

"Boom la la ......"

At this moment, countless people howled, and Xia Ting couldn't help but burst into tears. A feeling called hot blood, filling the heart.

It is true that the power of human beings individually is insignificant, but the power of unity can be compared to the sky.

The smell and sound of burning continued to come, and a cloud of smoke hung over the sky of Chunjiang Town. The danger gradually moved away, and the people who had been holding on to it immediately weakened and gasped, and some cheered and rejoiced.

The boiling river gushes into the suburbs. As we all know, to solve this sudden fire, the embankment that has been so painstakingly chiseled will soon be rebuilt.

The Liuxi River is the mother river that nurtures the people of Chunjiang Town, and people have lived on the water of the Liuxi River for many years. This water is not inexhaustible, and is stored every year by rainwater and mountain springs......

The problems that will arise in the future have already been guessed by those who are interested. The county magistrate was happy and happy, and there was a faint worry in his eyebrows.

The gates were charred black, the walls were in ruins, and the embankments were ...... Over the next month, everyone had no free time and spontaneously carried out the reconstruction, especially the embankment.

Many of those who had escaped also came back and joined in. By the time the embankment was rebuilt, nearly one-third of the water in the Liuxi River had been reduced, and the problem of water shortage had come ahead of schedule.

Da Qi's injuries have improved in this month, and after the two came back, they looked the same as usual on the surface, however, the eye contact between the two people quietly brought sparks in an instant, and the affection was in the veins~ Especially Da Qi's little wolf dog, the eyes were hot.

"Or you will get married on the spot. All the time this day, I'm going to be blind with this light bulb. Xia Ting's tone was sour, she was the lemon essence under the lemon tree.

Qiu Yue was very calm, but Da Qi blushed, and couldn't say a complete sentence.

Their combination is the cp of the royal sister and the little milk dog.

"When this period of time passes, things settle down, let's do it again." The words are not shocking, and Qiu Yue either doesn't say it, and as soon as she says it, she drops a bomb.

Da Qi was also frightened, "This, are you so anxious?" ”

Look, I'm so shocked that my IQ is offline. Xia Ting complained secretly.

"What? Still not willing to do so? Qiuyue's tone was full of danger, and he even looked at it

The eyes that went went were cold.

Fortunately, Daqi was able to pull up half of the chain by himself at the critical moment, "I am happy." It's just that I'm the way I am now, I'm afraid I've wronged you. ”

Xia Ting believes that this is his true words.

Taking advantage of this excellent moment, Xia Ting immediately said: "Hey, hey, I heard it!" After this time has passed, you will give me a good time! I'm going to get you a wedding! "The happy things of their relatives naturally have to be decent, they are now in good condition, and they can't be wronged Qiuyue.

Da Qi scratched his head, smiling like a fool, and Qiu Yue's eyes were also warm.

The best thing is that her two best friends, Chunhua and Qiuyue, can hold a happy event together, and they are even more happy.

What Xia Ting didn't expect at this time was that the forever plan would not be able to catch up with the changes. Many promises are also forced to fail to be kept. Of course, that's another story.

The problem of water scarcity finally broke out on this day. Qiu Ye, as the most powerful person in the town, immediately distributed materials and porridge to stabilize people's hearts. On the other hand, look elsewhere for water.

Without water, crops do not grow well, harvests are poor, and food and clothing become a problem.

The destruction of the city gates has not yet been completed, and more and more homeless and refugees have migrated in, and despite the daily guards, there are still people who are hiding their eyes and ears and absconding in.

Xia Ting still chose Mingzhe to protect himself, and he was well prepared with materials and water, and if he was provincial, he would be able to survive this difficult time. Every day there are beggars coming outside the door, two adults can bring a number of children behind them, at first Xia Ting will give some food, but a small act of kindness attracts more wanderers, and even more, some people with bad intentions have their ideas.

In the end, it was the guys in the store and the people from the second brother Gu Gang who came to help, and they calmed down.

This is just the beginning, and in the later stage, no matter how many people there are, I am afraid that they will not be able to hold it down.

When Uncle Ping came to report on the situation in January, Xia Ting suddenly had a plan: "Uncle Ping, if the crops in our field are all harvested, how many people can be fed for a month?" ”

Uncle Ping was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and replied cautiously: "It's still a little worse to deal with the current refugees." However, if the situation can be mitigated, at least the current threat is gone. However, it is good for the lady to be kind-hearted, and she has to think about herself. ”

Xia Ting smiled: "Uncle Ping understands me." I'll think about it again. ”

After Uncle Ping went out, he paused and went in another direction unusually, and that direction was not the direction of returning to the field.

The second brother was also busy for a long time because of the lack of water in the Liuxi River. Some of the boats on the river had problems, and because of the arrival of refugees, there were many more disturbing actions by scoundrels and hooligans.

I came back every day to the half-shift.

When Gu came back, he saw that Xia Ting hadn't slept yet, and asked, "Did something happen today?" Gu Shaoyou rubbed his eyebrows, this refugee came too suddenly, and he caught them off guard.

Xia Ting cooked food for him, and while he was eating, she said, "Aren't there too many refugees?" If we let it go, it will be difficult for us to be alone. Don't we have land? The crops were also ripe, and I was going to contact the government, and I was going to donate at that time. ”

Gu thought for a while and said, "It's a plan for reinforcements." To guard against Qiu Ye, he has not revealed a specific purpose until now. ”
