On May 23, the eleventh month of the descent from the mountain, the sky in the south of the Yangtze River collapsed......

It has been raining for almost three months in a row, from the beginning of the spring rain to the thunder and heavy rain in the summer.

In March there were two light rains, one for 12 days and one for 15 days.

There was a moderate rain in April, which lasted for a month.

It started May with two sunny days, and then the rain hasn't stopped.

On the contrary, it is summer, and the thunder and raindrops are sandwiched together, and the rain is getting louder and louder.

Since half a month ago, we have been arranging personnel to patrol the river embankment for 12 hours a day, and the water level is visibly higher than the naked eye day by day.

But none of the city lords and officials who built Ye City came, and they never came.

Feng Xiaoer could only take the initiative to meet City Lord Zhou, but he didn't expect to get a very chilling reply.

After Feng Xiaoer came back, he learned to say to us in a tone: "You guys, you can rest assured, the river embankment that was just repaired last year will definitely not be a problem!" You have to believe in the court, and you have to believe in me even more. ”

Day before yesterday.

A brother of the Feng family braved the heavy rain to run all the way back, fell and was covered in mud, and rushed into the council room.

"Oh no! The river embankment is seeping water! Water began to seep from the place where the embankment was repaired last year! ”

"Take us around."

Feng Xiaoer and I didn't care about other things, and went to the scene as soon as possible.

When we stand on the embankment, the north is the turbulent river rolling and rushing, and the south is the home of thousands of sentient beings, the merciless world, the cold world.

When I came to the place where the embankment burst last year, 100 meters away, the newly built embankment, it was visible to the naked eye that five or six places began to seep out.

I was stunned for a long time, the raindrops slapped mercilessly on my body, it was so cold, it was cold from the bottom of my heart.

It's so hard, how can the people in Jiangnan bear this suffering?

For two years in a row.

My Buddha, where are you? Why do you discipline the world like this?

"Master? Guru? "Feng Xiaoer woke me up on the side.

"Quick, Feng Xiaoer, immediately send someone to inform City Lord Zhou. Then hurry up and contact all the clans in the city to organize the transfer as quickly as possible, especially the grain! It must not be blistered. I came to my senses and hurriedly talked to Feng Xiaoer.

"Okay, I'll arrange it." Feng Xiaoer didn't drag his feet, and gathered people and began to issue orders one by one.

"A thousand miles away! A thousand miles away! "I looked up at God, let the raindrops fall on my face, time, is it still too late? I hope that the place where the city lord of Zhou is proud that he will not break the embankment can hold on a little longer, even if it is one more day.

After Feng Xiaoer arranged the preliminary things, he squatted on the river embankment, carefully observing something.

Suddenly, he looked up and called out to me: "Master, master, come and see." ”

I must have discovered something!

After I left, Feng Xiaoer continued: "Master, do you know how to build dams and river embankments at the moment? ”

"This poor monk really hasn't learned." I was puzzled and shook my head.

"As far as I know, most of the materials used to build dams and embankments today are made of stones and wooden piles. The wooden pile is used as the pile foundation, and the stone is used as the main body. The stone and the stone are generally connected and fixed with a stone or iron ingot, and then the gap between the top and bottom left and right front and back is mixed with lime, glutinous rice, tung oil, etc., and the silk can be stitched. But, Master, you see! Feng Xiaoer said loudly in the rain.

Following the direction of Feng Xiaoer's finger, he looked fixedly, and when the rain fell, it had already leaked directly into the gap between the stones on the embankment!

"Cut corners!" I was shocked!

"We don't know what the quality of the 100-meter embankment that we started repairing last year is, but one thing is for sure, it must have been cut corners." Feng Xiaoer's face was also full of worry.

"Be on guard first, so that everyone can no longer get close to the range of 100 meters. Then the people should be moved as quickly as possible. As for the matter of the river embankment, when the time comes, we will settle accounts with the city lord of Zhou! "I stood up and looked at the Jiangnan city wall in the distance, which was slightly desolate in the heavy rain.

Yesterday.

The rain in Jianye City stopped for a day.

However, the water level in the north of the city is still rising, the rain has not stopped in the upper reaches, and the surface water of the surrounding mountains and forests is constantly injected, and the water level has already exceeded the warning line, and it is still seven meters away from overflowing the river embankment.

The seepage embankments are even more obvious, and there are at least a dozen places.

The Feng family, Zhu and some clan members had already started to organize everyone to transfer all night the day before yesterday, but the rain stopped today.

Many people are reluctant to transfer, in everyone's heart, when the rain stops, the water will naturally slowly recede, what else to transfer? Make a mountain out of a molehill.

Zhu Xuan personally came to the embankment and asked me, "Master, do you still want to transfer?" Many people and businesses are not happy when the rain stops today, and they even come back. ”

"You have to, look at the water. An hour ago, the water level was seven meters away, and now there are only six and a half meters left, and the water level is still rising rapidly today. Since many people are not willing to listen to the persuasion, they will go all out to transfer the grain and medicinal materials in their warehouses first. "I've been on the embankment and haven't left.

"That's all you can do, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, master, you pay attention to safety." Zhu Xuan said to me with some concern.

"Don't worry about me, you can get busy. Oh, by the way, thank you for taking care of Lin Luoluo these days, patiently teaching, and working hard for you. "I never had a chance to thank her.

"Master, if you are so polite, then pay the tuition." Zhu Xuan raised his eyebrows and said to me.

"Amitabha Buddha ~ no money." I'm very honest.

"Haha, stinky monk, I'll go first, you pay attention to safety. Lin Luoluo, that girl, I like it very much. Zhu Xuan teased me and left quickly.

The speed of the river's rise gradually slowed down, and Feng Xiaoer asked me to set up a simple tent on the river embankment, and two chairs could be put together to lie down simply.

Today.

The next day when the rain stopped.

The water level stabilized at about two meters below the embankment.

However, the 100-meter new embankment is like a sieve, leaking everywhere and precarious, and I can't count how many places there are.

Feng Xiaoer came over early in the morning with breakfast, and Lin Luoyun and Zhu Xuan also came. Several people stood on the embankment, with heavy hearts.

The city lord of Zhou has not appeared so far.

The moon rises and sets, and it is about to get dark, and the water level does not recede as we hoped.

Click!

Click!

"Master, there is a voice." Lin Luoluo's little ears were the first to hear the strange sound.

Everyone was on alert, coming from the leaky embankment over there.

Click!

Click!

The voice became louder and louder, and I quickly took Lin Luoluo's hand.

Things often backfire and go against expectations.

Rumble!

A loud bang resounded through the sky.

The levee broke.

We see it with our eyes.

A river of water poured into the land of Jiangnan like this, and it was unreasonable to say, just like the end of the world.

The monstrous flood swept away everything you could see.

Everything is so small and helpless in the face of nature.

I always believe that if things backfire, it is incompetence. Fortunately, this time the materials were transferred more than two days in advance, especially food; If you don't find out in advance, the consequences are really unimaginable.

I was relieved from the shock, what I expected, but I really didn't want it to happen.

I looked at everyone and was the first to speak:

"Friends, get ready to save people......"

"Brother Shen!"

"Hmm!"

Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.

But it doesn't matter who it is.

There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.

on this.

Shen Changqing is used to it.

Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.

Arguably.

In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.

When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.

When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.

The Demon Suppression Division is huge.

The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.

Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.

Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.

Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.

Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.

Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.

Have memories of the predecessor.

He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.

It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.

Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.

At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.

Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.

Access to the attic.

The environment has changed in vain.

A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.

The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
