Upper portion; The Wind and the Waves Are Calm and Prosperous Chapter 4 The Disaster of the Flood
In the blink of an eye, the summer vacation is over.
Recently, the weather has been extremely bad, and it has rained heavily for a week.
The worst floods in history have erupted across the country. Jinlin City is no exception. The water level of the Li River has exceeded the warning level by several meters, and the houses on both sides of the river have been flooded!
The Longqing Mountains have been hit by heavy rains for a long time, and local landslides have occurred, causing mudslides.
Qinglong Village, where Liang Qiangping's family is located, was completely washed away by mudslides. Houses and farmland were swept away and looted by the flood, and in the blink of an eye, a living village disappeared without a trace!
At this time, Liang Qiangping temporarily lived in Song Renjie's house. Due to the surge in floodwaters, the Chunyuan community where Song Renjie's home is located has also been flooded, and the first floor has been completely submerged, and rescuers are urgently carrying out rescue.
The flood was violent, wave after wave rushed towards the village. The flood control dikes on both sides of the Li River were completely washed away, and the houses along the banks collapsed one after another. It was the worst flood ever!
Liang and Song Renjie's family were successfully rescued by rescuers and transferred to a temporary rescue station on a hillside in a lifeboat. At this time, it was still pouring rain in the sky, the sky was full of dark clouds, sometimes lightning and thunder, and the day was like day!
The flood was merciless and claimed countless lives!
The Jinlin Municipal Government dispatched the military, armed police, fire fighting, and public security to carry out an all-round rescue.
The damage was severe, with many roads washed out and rescue vehicles unable to pass, making rescue efforts extremely difficult. Local grassroots cadres organized local young and strong men to carry out self-help.
Liang Qiangping was worried, and he also wanted to follow the adults to the disaster relief. However, Song Renjie pulled him back to the tent, the rain was too heavy, and there was water everywhere, how can you rescue a child? He didn't let Liang Qiangping go out, worried that he wouldn't be able to come back after he went out.
However, Liang Qiangping was worried about his parents and sister. I haven't been home for two days, and I don't know how they're doing now! He is well aware that heavy rain for a long time can easily cause mudslides on the mountain. What if they don't get out in time and are swept away by the mudslide?
Song Renjie and Yin Ni both raised their heads and sighed, if this rain continues to fall like this, the whole city will be gone!
Outside the tent, officers and soldiers are organizing rescue.
The mayor gave a death order, and the affected people must be rescued as soon as possible!
Song Xi pulled Liang Qiangping and comforted him: "Brother Qiangping, don't worry, your parents will definitely be rescued, you must protect yourself." ”
Liang Qiangping was already anxious, if he hadn't been pulled by Song Renjie, he would have run out just now.
In the afternoon, the rain finally stopped, the clouds gradually dispersed, and the sun shone faintly.
At this time, Jinlin City is already an ocean!
Liang Qiangping saw that the rain had stopped, and while Song Xi was not paying attention, he flew out of the tent and ran quickly in the direction of the mountain village.
Song Renjie saw Liang Qiangping running out of the tent, for fear that he would do something stupid, so he hurriedly ran out of the tent to look for it. However, it was already a step too late, and Liang Qiangping had already run away. Thinking of his own heart, he can't care a lot, and he doesn't look back even if they shout. He tied three soccer balls he had borrowed from the school to a net bag and tied them to himself as a lifebuoy before making his way up the mountain road.
The mountain road was rough and muddy, and his short stature could not run more than a few miles before he had fallen several times, and his whole body was covered in mud and water. Fortunately, the temperature is high, and the body does not feel cold.
Along the way, there were victims everywhere. Adults are physically and mentally exhausted, and children cry again and again, which is unbearable!
Liang Qiangping couldn't take care of it, and hurried to the mountain village at a faster pace. However, the mountain road is narrow, and rescuers pass by from time to time. He was still young, physically exhausted, and exhausted after walking more than ten miles.
Seeing that the sun is setting in the west and the sky is getting late, there are at least ten miles of mountain roads from the mountain village here, and it is impossible to arrive before dark!
Liang Qiangping dragged his heavy steps into a nearby temporary aid station, received some food inside, and waited to fill his stomach, it was already dark, so he had to rest here for a night.
Early the next morning, Liang Qiangping ate breakfast and continued to the mountain village. Although the rain stopped overnight, the flood did not subside and the flood peak had reached its extreme.
Liang Qiangping ignored the danger and hurried away. After crossing the two mountains, you will come to the foot of the Twin Peaks. However, a large area of the mountainside of Deqingfeng Mountain in the south has been washed away by floods. The trees and houses under the hillside were washed away.
Liang Qiangping looked at all this in front of him, and was stunned, and shouted loudly: "Dad, mother, sister......"
Rescuers are carrying out the rescue. Landslides and mudslides engulfed the entire Qinglong Village. Of the hundreds of people in the village, less than half escaped. Liang Jiande, Liang Qindi, and Liang Zizhen have been swept away by the flood, and their lives and deaths are uncertain!
The flood water on the Twin Peaks is still flowing, and the water is fierce and threatens to engulf everything!
Suddenly, a person behind him shouted, "Son, come back quickly!" Dangerous! This person is tall and covered in muddy water, and it is Liang Deming, the head of Qinglong Village.
It's too late, it's too soon! Another side of the hillside collapsed with mud and rock, which quickly slid down with the floodwater.
Liang Qiangping happened to be standing on the mud and rocks, his eyes swollen from crying, and he didn't feel the danger at all.
Liang Deming strode over, stretched out his right hand to grab his hand. The mud and rocks under Liang's feet quickly slid down, shaking him down. Before Liang Deming could get closer, he had already slid down with the mud and rocks.
Liang Deming broke out in a cold sweat and loudly called the surrounding villagers to come and save people!
Suddenly, the flood in the valley spun violently, forming a huge whirlpool, which was terrifying!
Liang Qiping was terrified and tried to climb up, but the whole piece of mud and stone slipped and fell into the water after a while.
Liang Deming shouted loudly down the mountain: "Child, climb up, you must climb up!" ”
The surrounding villagers hurriedly ran over after hearing Liang Deming's call, and one of the young men threw a rope at Liang Qiangping.
Liang Qiangping's face was covered with muddy water, his eyes were blurry, and he couldn't see at all.
The whirlpool swirled larger and larger, and the water flowed faster and faster, as if a huge crater had collapsed under the valley, and the flood water was rushing downward.
Liang Qiangping had fallen into the water, the flood was spinning rapidly with him, he had no strength to swim further, and he was swept into the whirlpool, and disappeared in a blink of an eye!
Exactly: the torrent poured down and the ground collapsed, and everything could not escape this catastrophe. Looking at the rapids, the rapids are as wide as the sea, and there are no classmates in the depths of the whirlpool!
Liang Deming knelt on the ground and cried loudly: "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have let him run in just now, what should I do now?" ”
Everyone was stupefied, and they were so sad to see a young life disappear in the blink of an eye!
Liang Deming was full of self-reproach and wanted to go down to salvage in person.
Everyone pulled him back forcefully and tried their best to dissuade him, the village chief, the water is too fierce, and if you go down, you won't be able to take your life again!
Jinlin landscape is the best in the world, God turns his face and disfigures his face!
Floods ruthlessly washed away roads, bridges, and buildings, turning a world-famous tourist city into a city of water. How many lives have been lost, and how many species have been extinct. Wailing, crying, terrible!
This nationwide large-scale flood is not accidental, it is the result of human overexploitation of Jingxing resources and serious damage to the natural ecological environment!
Song Renjie's house was also washed away by the flood, and although their family of four was not in danger of life, they were also left homeless!
Three days later, the flood waters receded.
Song Renjie took his family to Hwaseong and temporarily lived in the faculty apartment of Hwaseong University. However, after hearing the unfortunate news of Liang Qiangping, the four of them felt bitter!
Song Renjie lamented frequently, it's a pity! It's a pity! What a good boy!
Song Xi cried even more sadly for a few days and nights, clamoring to find Liang Qiangping, to see people alive and corpses to die!
The road is: the green mountains are green and yellow, and the laurel trees are not blue. The high-rise buildings are gone, and how many people are still alive and dead?
