A faint morning mist shrouded the Hidden Dragon Valley, and in the reckless jungle, a river was hidden under the towering trees, flowing quietly.

At this moment, the river is full of people and noisy. A long queue of wooden platoons, loaded with people and supplies, went down the river and headed straight to the southeast.

This is the moving team of the people of Mangrove Village.

Although the people of Mangrove Village decided to merge with the Ryuzawa Department, they never thought of moving.

They all believe that Mangrove Village is only a day's journey away from Longzebu, and it is very convenient to travel to and from Longzebu, and they can still communicate smoothly with Longzebu by living in Mangrove Forest.

When there is a need for manpower and supplies, they can be quickly moved between them, and there is no need to move to live together, which will lead to a shortage of food.

The dragon spirit didn't think so.

Longze is at the time of great development, and there is an urgent shortage of labor, how can so many people in Mangrove Village be allowed to be free outside?

He knows very well the thoughts of the people in Mangrove Village, first, he is used to living and is reluctant to move, and secondly, he is still resistant to integrating into the Longze Department, and he still wants to be independent.

The former is understandable, and the latter is absolutely intolerable to the dragon spirit.

As for the excuse of insufficient food, it is even more nonsense. Food is so abundant in the jungle that thousands of people can be fed just by catching fish on their doorstep, where is there a shortage of food?

Faced with the pleading Mangrove villagers, the dragon spirit was furious and ordered them to move immediately, otherwise the dragon god would abandon them and send troops to punish them.

The people of Mangrove Village did not dare to disobey the dragon, so they had to sadly prepare to leave the village where their people had lived for more than 100 years.

They didn't have much belongings, so it only took one night to pack them up and move to Longze early this morning.

The fleet traveled to a wide river, and the dragon spirit rode a big wild boar along the river, looking up through the gaps in the leaves, and seeing the rare sunny weather, his heart felt much more relaxed.

"Giggle." Suddenly, there was a child's laughter in front of me.

Long Jing looked at it and saw two naked children chasing and playing on the mudflats not far away, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's ...... Are there other tribes nearby? ”

He was suspicious in his heart, seeing that the child was only three or four years old, and no adult around him could see it, and he was even more puzzled: "Such a small child is running around in the wild, and there are no adults watching, it's too dangerous!" ”

Just as he was about to call someone to go to the front to investigate, and by the way, he caught the child back, when he saw the crowd suddenly screaming and some people shouting loudly, and the wooden raft immediately stopped on the shore.

"What happened?" The dragon spirit asked loudly.

Lie Shanhong jumped down from the wooden raft, waded through the water and ran to him, panting and said, "Longzi, there is a water ghost in front of you, and you can't go any further." ”

"What water ghost?" The dragon spirit reacted quickly, pointed to the two children and said, "Do you mean the children frolicking in front of you?" ”

"Exactly." Lie Shanhong looked panicked and said, "That's not a child, it's a rain child." ”

"Rain Boy? What is that? The dragon spirit asked with a frown.

"Don't Ryuko know? This rain boy is a kind of water spirit that lives in the water, and they are usually harmless to people, but where they appear, there will be heavy rainstorms or floods. ”

"Really? How do I think they look exactly like human children? ”

The dragon spirit was a little unconvinced, and planned to ask someone to go over and see it before deciding, when he heard a piercing exclamation. The two rain boys spotted the fleet, turned around and ran to the river, plunged headlong into the water, and swam away quickly.

"I'm wiping, it's really a water ghost!" Seeing their seal-like smooth swimming style, the dragon spirit finally believed it.

"That'...... Is it about to rain or flood, as you think? He asked Lie Shanhong.

Lie Shanhong said with a worried face: "Longzi, this place is close to the mountain, once it rains, there is a high probability of a flash flood." And this river also flows down from the mountains, and once a flash flood erupts, none of us can run away! ”

"Boom." As the two of them spoke, a muffled thunder sounded overhead.

When I looked up, I saw that the weather had changed for some time, and black clouds pressed down from the south, and a faint electric light could be seen inside.

"Rain Boy! Is it so effective? "The dragon spirit couldn't believe it.

Lie Shanhong observed the dark clouds for a while, and said to the dragon spirit: "Longzi, the rainstorm is coming, we can't go anymore, we must find a place to shelter from the rain." ”

"Okay." The dragon spirit didn't dare to ignore it, nodded and asked, "Do you know where such a place is around here?"

Lie Shanhong was prepared, pointed to a fork in the river and said: "Walking from the left, there is a hill not far away, and there is a cliff at the foot of the mountain, which can shelter from the rain. ”

"Very good, quickly lead the fleet there, and order someone to pack up their things and go ashore to shelter from the rain."

Everyone hurriedly drove into the fork of the river, and hurried forward for a while, and saw a cliff like an arch, like a natural eaves, and there was a slope under the cliff, just for people to hide from the rain.

The fleet sailed to the bottom of the cliff, stopped the wooden rafts, and let the old and weak women and children go to the high places first, and the young and strong men then carried all the supplies up, and finally lifted the wooden rafts to the high places.

After settling down, a few more bonfires were lit, and hundreds of people huddled under the 'eaves', watching the black clouds and lightning that were accumulating thicker and thicker in the sky, trembling and waiting.

"Click!"

"Whoa!"

After a thunderbolt of lightning, raindrops the size of broad beans poured down from the sky, and the sky and the earth were confused.

Looking at the rising and muddy river, Long Jing secretly rejoiced: "Fortunately, there are people who are familiar with geography, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Outside the cliff, there was thunder and rain, the sky was terrifying, terrifying, and terrifying, and a large group of humans hid inside, squeezing each other, but there was an unusually safe and warm feeling.

"This is the power of the group, although we know that the group is powerless in the face of natural disasters, but being in the group, you can get a sense of psychological security."

The dragon spirit sat at the top, looking at his own race, and felt at ease in his heart.

This wild world is dangerous and lonely, as long as you are with your kind, you can feel the warmth.

When they were in a daze, the warriors guarding the river suddenly shouted, and everyone straightened up nervously.

The dragon spirit thought that the torrent was coming, and when he looked up, he saw that under the rain curtain of white flowers, there seemed to be a few black spots floating in the turbid river water.

On closer inspection, the black dots do not seem to be drifting with the current, but swimming in the raging floodwaters.

"What the hell is it?" The dragon spirit saw that the black spot was getting bigger and bigger, and tried to distinguish it, but the rain obscured his vision, and he couldn't see what it was.

After a while, a few black dots swam to the shore of the cliff. The warriors of Mangrove Village who were guarding there screamed in surprise and stepped back, all standing on a high place, holding their weapons and shouting.

The crowd was in an uproar, and when the young men on the slope heard the sound, they all raised their weapons and stood up and looked at the river, and many people in the vicinity had already rushed over.

The dragon spirit also hurriedly jumped up, ordered the crowd to stay where they were and not to move, and beckoned the dragon warriors himself and ran straight to the river.

When they arrived at the river, there were already dozens of warriors from Mangrove Village, and the dragon spirit separated the crowd and walked in to take a look, and couldn't help but be surprised.
