Chapter 696: Rainy Night

The riverbank was safe and sound, and everyone was cheering, but at this moment, an accident appeared, and an old man found that there was a fast land not far from their feet, and the ground began to have a lower limit, "Oh no...... Oh no....... ”

The shouting of this life made the people around them stunned, and people followed the old man's eyes to see that a stream of water began to flow out on one side of the embankment, and the people became very frightened as they got bigger and bigger, and the previous flood had made the people very fragile, and they could no longer withstand the second flood.

"Quick, fill in the soil and plug that hole as soon as possible."

Zhou Duchan dismounted and shouted loudly, and Guangwei also reacted at this time, "Children, the elderly, women and children should leave here as soon as possible, and leave the ...... quickly." ”

The crowd began to become panicked, but fortunately, Ma Wei and the soldiers were only helping the elderly and children evacuate as soon as possible.

Zhou Duchan stood on the embankment of the river and inspected the place where the water came out, and the people tried their best to fill the hole with earth and stones, but to no avail, the stones and earth were soon swallowed up, and the five tones disappeared without a trace.

At this time, a man stood up and said, "My lord, this is useless, there must be a gap under the embankment, and you must find the right place." ”

"What can a strong man do?"

"I can't say anything, but I'd like to give it a try."

"Okay, you say we'll do it." Zhou Duchan didn't know how to save the man in front of him, maybe it was his eager eyes or the expectant people around the riverbank.

"My lord, find someone with good water quality, go down and find the gap, as long as we find the exact location of the gap, we can plug it."

"I'll ...... I'll go....... "A lot of men stood up and scrambled to be the first.

Zhou Duchan looked at the turbulent river, "For the sake of safety, tie a rope to the person who enters the water, once danger occurs, as long as the rope is shaken, our people on the shore can pull the person up in time." ”

"Lord Zhou's method is feasible, go find the rope quickly, the longer the better, it must be strong."

Soon everyone gathered a set of dozens of meters long rope, the person who went into the water was the strong man before, the person just disappeared without a trace as soon as he got out of the water, only a layer of white foam was left on the river, all the people were very nervous looking at the river, even the breathing was very slow, the time passed minute by minute, the river was still turbulent, and the situation under the water was not clear, Zhou Duchan was even more anxious, I don't know what happened to the strong man under the water, it has been so long, and the strong man still has no movement.

At this time, Guangwei came over and stood in front of Zhou Duchan, "What should I do, my lord?" It's been so long, will there be an accident? ”

"Wait a minute, and if there's no movement, we'll pull the rope up.

"Good...... Then just wait. ”

Zhou Duchan actually didn't have any hope in his heart, and he regretted that this person could survive such a big flood, but this time in order for other people to survive, he jumped into the river without hesitation.

There was a sad look on everyone's faces, "Pull ......." ”

Zhou Duchan only said one word, and then he couldn't say it anymore, and everyone understood what it meant.

Zhou Duchan turned around and couldn't bear to look at it, but the crowd erupted in cheers, "Come on...... Pull ...... quickly. ”

Everyone stepped forward and pulled the rope quickly.

"Hurry up...... Fast...... Fast...... It's almost out. ”

Zhou Duchan's heart was extremely excited, the moment the rope shook just now, he thought he was dreaming or was dazzled, the strong man came out of the water and breathed very quickly, but the person was fine, "Find...... I found it. ”

Everyone carefully pulled the strong man out of the embankment, "How is it?" ”

"Thank you, sir...... The villain is fine. ”

"Find some rocks, I already know the exact location."

Men, women, and children all moved, and the stones and sacks of dirt were all moved, and according to the position that the strong man said, everyone threw themselves into the river, and after a while, the place where the water came out of the water was really not coming out, and gradually the water was not flowing at all.

"Success......

The people cheered, not caring about the sweat and dirt on their faces, Zhou Dusk Zen was also greatly moved, never happy, Xiao Man said that people are small, but the power of a group of people is powerful, and it is a power that human beings can't think of.

"This time there is really no danger, fortunately, thanks to this strong man, sacrifice his life to rescue, everyone must pay attention to safety these days, I will leave the soldiers to patrol in shifts, once there is danger, we must retreat in time, I will arrange the retreat, so don't worry about ......."

"Don't worry, we'll all listen to your arrangement."

Zhou Duchan arranged the rest of the things, and continued to check other places, the danger just now is in the past, but I don't know how other places are now, the last big flood happened to be surrounded by floods, a river became a number of rivers, and the gap in one or two places is less, it can be said that it is full of devastation, and the embankments that Zhou Duchan has also seen before have been opened, those people are really not enough to kill 10,000 times.

Zhou Duchan had an idea in his heart, he wanted to return to the capital as soon as possible after the matter here was over, there were some things he needed to do, and he couldn't stay out of it anymore.

Xiao Man in the county government is busy in the kitchen, but there is a little heel behind Xiao Man, that is Zhou Yulin.

"Little boy, don't follow me, I promised you, I will definitely make something for you to eat."

"No, sister, look at those people outside, they are all gathered here, they are just here to grab chicken legs from me ...... eat."

Xiao Man sighed a little helplessly, "Who is this little brother Zhou Duchan like, why is he so difficult." ”

Saturday stared at the man hatefully, "I hate the ...... that no one has ever robbed me." ”

"You still care so much about a child, and you don't look at what you look like when you are fat, you know that you eat and eat, and you really envy you if you have no heart and lungs."

"What's the matter, eldest sister, now that the flood has passed, and the things arranged by the emperor have been completed, what else is there to worry about now."

"I'm worried about Miss."

"Miss......?" Saturday didn't understand Friday's voice, and raised his eyes to look at Xiaoman.

"Miss is very good now, there is nothing to do in business, and there is no old lady forcing her to go on a blind date, I see that Miss is very happy here."

"Is Miss really happy? Didn't you notice that Miss Zai moved out of Zhou's room? ”

"Eldest sister, if you don't say that I have forgotten, why did the young lady move out of Lord Zhou's room?"

Friday stretched out his hand and nodded Saturday's head, "You are really heartless, Miss Loss is so good to you, you don't care about Miss." ”

"Sister, you know, I'm not as smart as you, and I never look at people's faces, so you have to tell me something......."

"Ah......h

The two stood up in surprise and rushed to the kitchen, "Miss...... Miss....... ”

There was already a pool of blood on the ground, Xiao Man's hand was bleeding, and Yulin on the side was already stupid with a knife.

"What are you doing here?" Friday snatched the knife from Yulin's hand and couldn't help but yell.

Yulin was so frightened that he couldn't speak.

"Saturday...... It's okay...... I know she didn't mean to ....... ”

"Sister...... Sister...... I'm sorry....... ”

On Saturday, he hugged Xiaoman and ran to Master Qi, "Master Qi...... Master Qi ....... ”

Xiaoman's wound is very deep, "Xiaoman, don't worry, although the wound is a little deep, it doesn't hurt the muscles and bones, so rest for a few days, don't touch the water." ”

"Master Qi, I know all of this, rest assured."

Xiaoman was carried back to his room by Saturday to rest, but Yulin didn't know where to go.

Of course, this meal was not made, and I was in a very bad mood on Saturday, I didn't eat anything delicious, and my own lady was also injured in the hand, in short, today is not going well everywhere, and I feel depressed on Saturday and have nowhere to vent, I just want to find someone to fight with me.

Today was still a stormy night, and Zhou Duchan and Guangwei didn't return to Yamen until the evening, because something else happened on their way, and they met someone again who wanted to destroy the embankment.

Without thinking about it, Zhou Duchan chased after him directly with someone, and he was about to catch up, but it was raining at this time.

But all the people couldn't bear this breath, they couldn't let go of those who were mad, so they didn't give up on the rainy night, and finally those people hid in the mountains, and the rain was so heavy that they couldn't continue on the slippery roads, so they had to find a cave in the mountains.

"My lord, don't worry, we can't go up, they can't come down, we're here now to rest, the big guys are tired, we'll go up the mountain when the rain is lighter."

"I think so too, I can't let them go again this time anyway."

It was destined to be an unquiet night, and the rain continued until the next morning, and it tended to get heavier and heavier.

Xiaoman They were worried all day, and all the people in Luoshui Town did not sleep on the same night, all the people were praying, God could stop this rain as soon as possible, they were just about to start a good life, could God take it all back.

At this time, Mrs. Zhou came to find Xiaoman, because Yulin did not come back that night, Mrs. Zhou was so anxious that she almost went crazy, but Zhou Duchan and Xiaosi couldn't find all of them, so Mrs. Zhou had no choice but to come to Xiaoman.

All the people in the yamen, including Xiaoman, were dispatched, and all the people braved the heavy rain and almost stayed awake all night, but they found nothing.

No one was found, and all the people returned to the backyard of the yamen to gather, and Xiao Man was the last to return.

On Friday, I saw that Xiao Man's whole body was already soaked, so he immediately stepped forward and hugged Xiao Man, "Miss...... How about you cold or not? ”

Xiaoman was already frozen and couldn't say a complete word, "No...... It's okay. ”

"It's okay, Miss, your whole body is cold, and your hands are ......."

Xiao Man's wound was bleeding, falling down his fingertips, but Xiao Man didn't feel it at all.
