Chapter Twenty-Nine: Turning Back

Qian Manguan went back to bed and sat down angrily, and there was only a bean-sized oil lamp in the room, dim and wobbly, which was very sleepy.

Qian Manguan cheered up and opened the window crack again, and from the middle, he could see that the window of Xianghua's room was closed tightly. He looked at it for a while, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.

Bang, the window crack closed again.

Taro jumped off the roof, throwing away the extra pebbles in his hand, and the sound of money snoring soundly soundly came from the house.

Restless kindness.

Taro smiled coldly and turned to go to the kitchen. Just because of this full money, he had to sleep in the kitchen with Cheng Linchang.

Cheng Linchang was opening the door, and when he saw him coming back, he looked at him curiously: "Taro, why did you relieve your hands for so long?" ”

Taro looked innocent: "For a long time?" ”

Cheng Linchang looked behind him, with an expression of "I understand": "Is it that you have eaten too much flatbread in the past few days and can't pull it out?" ”

Taro was stunned for a moment, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "...... Be. ”

"I have to talk to Xianghua, I still need to make some soup...... Sleep, taro. Drink plenty of water. Cheng Linchang said and walked back, snoring from sleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.

Taro stood helplessly for a moment before falling asleep in a tangled way.

When it was about a child, Xianghua suddenly woke up. She heard a cat meowing outside the window.

When I opened the window, it was indeed an ingot.

Yuanbao's hair was snow-white, and it seemed to shimmer in the moonlight, and he said to her, "Follow me." ”

Xianghua went back to the house to see that Xiangmiao was sleeping soundly, so she gently put on her clothes and opened the door and went out.

A man and a cat came to the Qingshui River.

The river was flowing and shimmering in the night, and everything around it seemed very quiet.

"Yuanbao, I understand when you plant melons and get melons, what does it mean that the Red River flows backwards?"

Yuan Bao walked to a stone and sat down: "Don't you want to save people?" Now that we know why, we have to find a way to get rid of them. ”

Xianghua combed: "That's right, this time Honghe is mining because of money, but now his mine has collapsed." ”

Yuan Bao narrowed his eyes, and looked at her with sapphire eyes: "Is the matter of the Red River solved?" ”

Xianghua shook her head, "The rain hasn't stopped, and the river sand will still go into the river." I watched the trend of the Qingshui River on the mountain, only we Qingshan Village are prone to disasters, and we have no time to do anything else this year, so we have to prepare for disasters in advance. ”

"How to prevent it?"

"How long will it rain?" Xianghua asked him.

Yuan Bao narrowed his eyes and curled his beard for a moment: "You're a little smarter than I thought." It will rain for about 10 days. ”

Xianghua looked at the surface of the river and took a closer look at the riverbank, some of the places she had passed along the river that day had now been submerged.

Flooding is approaching.

"You have to make a simple dam along the river that can hold some of the dams. The people of the village should also know the news in advance and be ready to move to the mountains. Xianghua looked at the fields and houses on the bank of the river, "These can only stay here." ”

Yuan Bao lay down and looked at the river: "Qian Manguan still doesn't believe it when he sees the result, do you think the people in the village will believe your words?" ”

Xianghua thought for a moment, and then came to her senses: "That's why you said 'the Red River flows backwards'?" The Red River flows backwards, firstly, to warn those who come in chaos that they will reap the consequences, and secondly, to let people know that the old rules do not make sense. ”

Yuan Bao blinked: "That's right, the task left for you now is how to make the Red River flow backwards." ”

The joy on Xianghua's face disappeared suddenly. Qian Manguan is right, how can the river flow backwards? But the Red River itself is not a river......

"Yuanbao, I wanted to ask you before, are there really a lot of big fish in the Qingshui River?"

Speaking of fish, ingots can come to the spirit. He stood up and stared at the river: "Of course there is, how many years has the clear water been in the river." ”

Xianghua's eyes lit up, and she suppressed her excitement and asked, "Then ...... in this river?" Are there any red fish? ”

Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment: "Yes, yes, I don't know how many, you wait for me to ask." ”

Yuan Bao jumped off the stone, walked to the river, and meowed a few times into the river.

At first, the river was calm and unresponsive, but after a while, Xianghua noticed a dark shadow on the surface of the river, and gradually approached in their direction.

The closer she got, the more frightened Xianghua became, and she realized that it was a huge red carp with an arm's length!

Yuan Bao was not polite, he walked over and meowed and asked a few words. The fish seemed to answer something, but Xianghua couldn't hear it, only its big tail clapping the river with a crackle.

Yuan Bao said: "She said that she has many children and grandchildren, and the youngest one is also the size of a palm. ”

Xianghuamei smiled and said, "Then can you ask them to help?" Preferably tomorrow! ”

Yuan Bao meowed a few more words at the big carp, the big carp shook his head and didn't know what to say, and Yuan Bao meowed a few more words.

“…… Tired uncle, she is still old-tempered. Yuan Bao said to Xianghua, "I told her why you did this, and she agreed." There is one condition though. ”

"On what terms?"

"She said that if they help with this, you people in Qingshan Village owe them a favor, and you can't eat their red carp in the future."

Xianghua readily agreed: "No problem, wrap it on me!" ”

Yuan Bao turned his head: "Then it's set for tomorrow morning, you go back and tell your children and grandchildren......"

Before Yuan Bao finished speaking, the big red carp flicked its tail and splashed the water on Yuan Bao's face.

Xianghua took out a handkerchief and wiped him with water: "She doesn't seem to like you very much?" ”

Yuan Bao spit out a mouthful of water, "Because Uncle Ben met her for the first time and almost ate her." ”

Xianghua couldn't help but laugh and said sympathetically, "Oh, that's no wonder. I'll give you a big grass carp another day. ”

Yuan Bao shook off the water on his body and said in an unkind tone: "You'd better do what you say." ”

Qian Manguan didn't get up until breakfast, and as soon as he washed his face, he heard someone outside shouting that something was wrong in the river.

Cheng Lin Chang didn't care about eating, so he ran out, taro and Xianghua glanced at each other, followed closely, and Xianghua called Xiangmiao and Donglin to walk slowly.

"What's wrong?" Qian Manguan has rice in his mouth.

Xianghua pretended to be confused: "I don't know, you can go and take a look." ”

When they arrived at the river, there were already many people standing on the bank, all pointing and talking about the river, and the sound of "the Red River flowing backwards" abounded.

Xianghua They were short and couldn't see what was happening in the river, Qian Manguan relied on his big fat belly, and said while squeezing into the crowd: "Hey, let one go, let one go." ”

When he saw the situation in the river clearly, Qian Mangong's mouth almost didn't close.

- Red River, Red River is really flowing backwards!

There was already a red flow of water in the center of the river, but there was a stream in front of me that actually went upstream, straight to the Qingshui River!

Qian Manguan rubbed his eyes vigorously and stretched his neck straight forward, he was not mistaken, what Cheng Xianghua said was true!

Taro also stared at the river, and he squinted his eyes slightly for a while, and saw that his eyebrows were coming.

That "red current" is not water, but a large school of red fish!
