"Miss Liu has been tired all the way, why don't you rest? lest you stain your clothes. Qi Tianyi saw Liu Yi standing beside him in men's clothes, and said to her casually.

"There are people everywhere here, and I'm a little scared alone." Liu Yi glanced up at him, "Can I follow you?" ”

After saying that, she turned her head to see Shi Jin again.

It looked okay, but the rancid smell on Shi Jin's body made her take a shallow step back. With a smile on her face, she looked at Qi Tianyi, "Which one is this?" ”

Shi Jin respectfully blessed according to the rules of the house, "I've seen Miss Liu." The slave maid is Shi Jin, the maid next to the second master of Qi in the Marquis of Jing'an. ”

"Shi Jin? It's a nice name. My name is Liu Yi, and I am the daughter of Dean Liu of Bailu Academy. Liu Yi smiled, "You've been here longer than us, do you know what kind of rest place is here?" ”

Shi Jin pursed his lips, "The rest places are all made of felt cloth." If Miss Liu wants to rest, she might as well go to the slave room to rest first. ”

"That's great!" Liu Yi has traveled all the way, all relying on tenacity. But the tiring days of traveling and driving have already tired her.

Daddy told her not to follow, but she secretly changed her students' clothes and mixed them in the crowd, preferring to learn from the women's characters, which is what men can do, and daughters' families have always been able to do it.

But the deviation between the ideal and the reality is too great, and she is always panicked when she sees the miserable situation of starvation all over the way.

Just when she came here, she wanted to pester Qi Tianyi.

Although he is not as old as the weak crown, and he is weaker than his father, he will always give her a sense of safety and reliability.

At the moment, Shi Jin is willing to take her to rest, and she is naturally happy to see it. At the moment, Shi Jin led the way, Qi Tianyi and Liu Yi followed, and walked to a high place together.

Qi Tianyi also wanted to see if she was doing here.

After getting the felt shed that was ventilated on all sides, Liu Yi opened his mouth in shock, and turned his head to look at Shi Jin, "That's it?" ”

Shi Jin nodded, "It's not just the second master, it's the fifth prince, and that's where you live." ”

Liu Yi was silent, and Qi Tianyi was also silent.

Shi Jin washed his hands in the rainwater pool stored outside the felt shed, and took the silent two into the house together.

There wasn't even a seat in the room, just a roll of broken straw mats spread on the floor, and a brocade quilt of indistinct color was laid on it.

"If Miss Liu is tired, you can lie down on the mat." Shi Jin lowered his eyes and said.

Qi Tianyi cleared his throat from the silence and took out a small bag from his sleeve, "Do you need to use some of the baked cakes you bought before entering the disaster area?" ”

The baked biscuits are not very oily and watery, and the only advantage is that they are durable and not easy to break.

On weekdays, not only Qi Tianyi, but also Liu Yi is disdainful.

Now, however, Liu Yi's eyes also showed some longing.

Shi Jin looked at the two dry baked cakes, and couldn't help but smile slightly at the corners of his lips, "If it were yesterday, you two baked cakes, the slave and maid would have to snatch them when they saw it." But today I drank a lot of rice soup, but I was not very hungry. ”

"Then give it to me! I'm hungry! Liu Yi snatched the baked cake from Qi Tianyi's hand and said with a smile.

After all, she divided the two baked cakes into Shi Jin. Seeing Shi Jin put the baked cake into her indigo cloth bag, she couldn't help but smile and said, "You are so saving, carefully I crawled into your felt shed when I was hungry at night to steal food." ”

Shi Jin also smiled, "You can steal the baked cake, just don't eat me." ”

As soon as the joke came out, her heart became sour again, and she thought of tripping over her half of her skeleton for no reason. Shake your head for a moment to expel the acid.

.

For two days in a row, it was drizzling, and although it was annoying, it didn't hurt in the end.

"On such a cold day, there should be no more heavy rain." Doctor He took a little rain and said.

However, the rain began to trickle down in the middle of the night, and gradually became heavier. The second master was not there, Shi Jin only curled up and covered his body with a layer of brocade quilt.

The cold was pervasive, and gradually the straw mats were also soaked cold, as if there was rain washing in, and they were all wet and cold.

"Shi Jin! Shijin! There was a low cry outside the felt shed, and Shi Jin was excited, and finally woke up.

She opened her eyes and looked out, it was pitch black, only the rain was loud, and she suddenly woke up.

It was such a cold day, and it was raining, and the victims were ......

quickly got up, and saw Liu Yi walking in with the felt curtain lifted from the outside, and the oil coat on his body was also wet.

"The river is rising again." Her voice followed with some trills, obviously she had never seen such a situation, and even the whole person followed suit, "Gongzi Gang Qi said to let me come to you, let's not go out in the shed." ”

"What about them?" Shi Jin pulled her to sit on the straw mat.

Even when I was sitting, I felt at ease, and the grass mat was soaked by the rain because of the gap in the felt shed.

Daddy said that there is still a long way to go from the canal that the five princes lead to the river, and the heavy rain came unexpectedly, so he could only bring water into a nearby valley nearby, so as not to flood more places. Migrant workers and active victims are now out there to help. ”

Shi Jin got up, turned around left and right, and the shouts of the rain in the distance came faintly, like a small beast wailing and struggling under the claws of a giant beast in the dark.

She looked out of the felt shed, the world was dark, and only the felt shed of the five princes was lit with a lamp. Through the pouring rain, she saw the fifth prince sitting in a wheelchair outside the shed in oil clothes, looking out at the darkness in the distance.

He tried to break free of his wheelchair and get up, but just stood up and tried to take a step forward, he fell back into the wheelchair. It didn't work several times, but the oil jacket was lifted by the wind and rain, and half of his body was drenched in the rain, depressed and discouraged. Doctor He's indifferent demeanor was also a little embarrassed, his white hair was attached to his white clothes, but his body was slightly arched, as if to dissuade the five princes from cherishing their bodies.

Her heart tingled.

On such a night, everyone is racing against time, trying to earn a way out for herself, why is she only confined to a felt shed and a straw mat?

"The slave has to go out and take a look." She said.

Liu Yi opened his eyes, as if he was looking at a madman, "You're crazy!" ”

As soon as her words came out, Shi Jin put on a cloak and rushed into the rain.

Because the night was too dark, she went down the slope with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and saw from a distance the dark figures under the canopy of the dome, digging ditches with shouts and desperate lives.

The water was raging, and the wind was strong, beating up and down. However, every time it falls and rises, it is closer to the crowd.

She looked to the other side, and on the other side, there was nothing alive except for the darkness of the night and the sound of rain.

But she knew that there were women and children and old men who trembled in the darkness......

She walked this road many times, stumbled through the mud, and fell several times.

Every time she fell, she grabbed the ground and got up. The mud on her body was rolling more and more with the rain, and even her voice couldn't be heard in the rain, "Is there anyone else?" Anyone else? Is there anybody? ”

Then he shouted again and again, until he was hoarse.

Just as she was about to give up, Da Lang's immature voice responded to her in a dark and gloomy rain, "Yes! ”

More voices gradually converged, old, hoarse, soft, crisp, heavy......

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!" ……

Shi Jin wanted to laugh and cry, and there were people struggling to survive in the dark night......

.

More and more people gathered in the procession to dig the ditch, not only the sturdy young people, but also the elderly, women, and children, who were silent in the rainy night and broke out in the rainy night.

Shi Jin was also among them, next to Da Lang and Zhang Niangzi. Baskets of earth were dug out and a deep ditch was made, and the rising water was drawn into the deeper valleys.

"Be careful!" After all, Da Lang was young, and his feet slipped and he almost fell into the newly dug ditch.

Shi Jin grabbed him and dragged him out with Mrs. Zhang.

However, the rising rain surged, crossed the last barrier, and surged towards this side......
