This is the way it is in this day and age, and it is too difficult to transmit information. Zhang Zheng didn't know about things far away in Chang'an.

Similarly, the difficulties that Zhang Zheng and Li Chengqian are facing now are unknown to the people of Chang'an. The torrential rain has not stopped, and the water level is still rising.

Above the rock wall where Zhang Zheng was located was a raised eaves, which blocked the pouring rain and allowed the soldiers to be sheltered.

A curtain of water fell from everyone's eyes, obscuring everyone's view. The rain had accumulated under his feet and had accumulated into a small stream, which flowed down the diagonal mountain into the roaring spiritual canal.

A huge problem was in front of everyone. Zhang Zheng, as the leader of this team, has always been known for his wisdom in the team.

So now this problem has been handed over to Zhang Zheng by everyone! Do you brave the rain to find a new shelter, or do you want to stay under the rock wall and gamble that the water level of the spiritual canal will not rise under everyone's feet?

Zhang Zheng knew that he had to make a decision in a short period of time. It's just that this decision is really not that easy to make.

If you are looking for a new shelter, not to mention such heavy rain, it will be difficult for people to see the scenery in front of them.

It's fine if you can find it, but what if you can't find it? Choosing to stay under the rock wall, the water level of the Ling Canal rose faster and faster, and the distance in a straight line was less than two miles.

The position where everyone was located was only a dozen meters higher than the water level of the Spirit Canal. Once the flood level rises, it will be difficult for everyone present to survive.

On top of that, there is also a Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the ranks. Everyone else will die if they die, if Li Chengqian dies here.

Zhang Zheng didn't dare to imagine the consequences. No one can bear Li Shimin's anger, and hundreds of people in the Zhang family will be annihilated by Li Shimin's anger.

Calm down, be calm at times like these! Zhang Zheng forced himself to calm down, and then instructed Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, you take forty people to find a new shelter, and after finding a new shelter, come back quickly to report it, if you can't find it, you can each run for your lives!" ”

"Yes!" Chen Yu also knew that her mother-in-law and mother could not be tolerated at this time, so she responded with a fist. He called out forty soldiers and rushed into the rain without looking back.

"Chung To!" After Chen Yu left, Zhang Zheng turned his head and called Du Cong from the crowd.

"Uncle, please command!"

"You take the rest of the soldiers, use what you have in your hands to build a few platforms on top of the rock wall, and then climb up the rock wall!"

"Yes, the last general commands!" Chung received the order and began to take the remaining soldiers to dig fist-sized eyes into the rock wall.

Then the soldiers' long weapons were broken, and the sticks were inserted into the stone holes. After setting up a platform, he continued to dig up.

Everyone is desperate, because everyone knows that they are fighting for their lives. Seeing that everyone else was busy, only Li Chengqian, Zhang Fusheng and Huang Jiahao were left around him.

Zhang Zheng first smiled bitterly at Li Chengqian, and then said, "Chengqian, I'm sorry, I've bothered you!" Before Zhang Zheng's words fell, Li Chengqian retorted angrily: "Brother Zheng'er, what are you talking about, am I, Li Chengqian, the kind of person who is not responsible?" Zhang Zheng smiled bitterly and didn't speak, but turned to Zhang Fusheng and pleaded: "Brother Zhang, if the flood rises later, Chen Yu and they won't find a new shelter." He also asked Brother Zhang and Brother Huang to take action to send His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to the high platform on the cliff, and after the flood waters receded, they would send him back to Chang'an safely. ”

"Good!" Zhang Fusheng was silent for a moment and replied softly. In fact, everyone knows that the so-called high platform is just a psychological comfort.

Without tools, the soldiers could climb as high as they could with the blades in their hands. How many meters, or a dozen meters?

Fortunately, with the skills of Zhang Fusheng and Huang Jiahao, Li Chengqian was brought to the cliff, should, okay? Zhang Zheng was a little unsure, manpower was too small in the face of such a natural disaster.

Zhang Zheng has done everything he can think of, and the next thing he can do is to wait for the judgment of fate.

As the minutes passed, the water level of the Ling Canal became higher and higher. When they disembarked and came to the bottom of the cliff, the river bank was nearly two miles away from the cliff.

Now, the riverbank was less than twenty meters away. The rain is still falling, as always!

"Uncle, the rock wall above is too hard, the soldiers, they all tried their best." Du Chung came to Zhang Zheng, his face was full of bitterness.

Zhang Zheng raised his head and took a look, and without tools, the soldiers only built three platforms on the cliff.

The highest platform is less than ten meters from the ground. No one knows when the rain will fall.

This height, which may or may not be useful, only God knows. Chen Yu and the others who went out to look for shelter were heard from at all, and Zhang Zheng's heart sank little by little.

The water was about to flood under everyone's feet, and Zhang Zheng knew that he couldn't wait. He arched his hand towards Zhang Fusheng and said, "Brother Zhang, please!" ”

"Brother Sheng'er, what about you?" Li Chengqian's face was a little anxious. Zhang Zheng stretched out his hand to wipe the mud off his face, but it had the opposite effect.

Not only did he not wipe his face clean, but he got his face full of muddy water! Zhang Zheng didn't care, and replied calmly: "You go up first, I'll come up later!" Li Chengqian wanted to say something, but he found that his body had risen into the air.

It turned out that Zhang Fusheng had already grabbed his waist. At this moment, following the protrusion on the rock wall, a few people jumped into the air towards the high platform that the soldiers had set up.

"Uncle Zhang......" Du Cong's face was full of shame, and he opened his mouth to say something.

"Let the soldiers take off their armor, without the bulky armor, the chances of surviving in the water for a while are greater!" Zhang Zheng waved his hand.

At this moment, there is no point in saying anything more. There is no need to distinguish who is right and who is wrong.

Looking at the flood that was getting closer and closer, Zhang Zheng's face was very calm. His hands were clenched, and his nails had dug deep into the flesh.

Blood and water mixed with muddy water, dripping on the ground one by one, and then carried into the spiritual canal by the stream formed by the rainwater.

No one can face death calmly, and neither can Zhang Zheng. The unwillingness to unpaid ambition and the fear of death spread to Zhang Zheng's heart.

But in the last moments of his life, Zhang Zheng didn't want to learn those hoarsenesses. Silence, only silence.

It's a pity that I couldn't see with my own eyes the seeds I planted in Datang take root and sprout and bloom into gorgeous flowers.

When the soldiers saw Zhang Zheng's appearance, they also quieted down and chose to wait quietly for death to come.

If you hadn't taken the waterway in the first place, if you could have gotten off the boat in advance, if you could have predicted this heavy rain. It's a pity that there are no ifs in life, only Li Chengqian, who was tightly pressed by Zhang Fusheng on the high platform, shouted hoarsely......
