"It's not good, go and inform the county magistrate, the upper reaches of Butterfly Creek, Peng Lang crosses to the Yuenu Gorge, and the eleven water monuments have all broken through the highest water mark since the monument was erected......"

"It's a big deal, go to the county magistrate to dispatch manpower, the water level is too high, the thick wall of the second phase of the Folding Wing Canal to hold back water is in danger, and there is already river water leaking into the backflow Folding Wing Canal......"

"It's over, it's over! On the side of the Yuenu Gorge near Yunmengze, two villages have been washed away by mudslides, and when they came down, they saw that all the people upstream were fleeing to the downstream county seat......"

"Lord Prefectural Order, Lord Prefectural Order! The water level at the Di Gong Gate is too high, and the people who stayed behind asked us whether you should stay or withdraw...... There are already people on duty at the sluice gates who are starting to escape......"

From Digong Gate in the south to Penglangdu in the north, hundreds of thousands of urgent messages from the upstream and downstream of Butterfly Creek are rapidly converging to the quaint county government on Luming Street in Longcheng County.

is like a shock wave, challenging the tense nerves of the county officials, and some people have taken the lead in holding it back.

Wait for Ouyang Rong to rush into the messy county hall alone.

Diao County Cheng, Yan Liulang, Liucao Chief, and Ya Servant Messenger...... The county officials gathered here panicked.

They were like ants on a hot pot, and they all went towards Ouyang Rong.

Ouyang Rong stretched out his hand to support the scribe who was about to fall in a panic in front of him, turned his head, and the crowd around him gossiped at him.

Ouyang Rong only felt that the entire world around him was covered by overwhelming sounds, and there was no gap for him to breathe.

"Ming Mansion! What should we do, the rain has stopped downstream, but the heavy rain in Yunmengze upstream still doesn't stop for a moment, and it has been raining for four days and four nights in a row! What should we do! ”

"Mingfu, some rich squires in the county have heard the rumors and have begun to run away, and Penglangdu's side is crowded with boats prepared by rich families, all of whom are dragging their families on board...... The other people are also panicking, and the county has begun to be in chaos......"

"Mingfu, the same was true of the last flood! The rain in the upstream Yunmengze falls like this again, and the water level continues to rise, once the Digong Gate collapses, the downstream until our county, on both sides of the Butterfly Creek, hundreds of miles of fertile land houses will be flooded again! ”

"Our hard work is ruined, all ruined ......"

It seems that the last flood happened is vivid, and the shadow once again looms over everyone's hearts.

The county government hall, which was still orderly in the afternoon, is like a boiling kettle at the moment, burning your feet.

Only when a real disaster comes, can we deeply understand that compared with unknown natural disasters, the panic before the disaster is the terrible wave that breaks all order.

As if infected by the emotions in the lobby, Ouyang Rong's eyes flickered slightly, and once again flashed the scene of the flooded Dragon City that he saw when he climbed out of the Pure Land Palace early in the morning, and looked south from the big lonely mountain.

Is that...... The whole land is full of mourning and the blood of the city.

At this moment, Yan Liulang came over, his face worried, and reminded in a low voice:

"Ming Mansion, why don't you let the girls of Merlot Yuan Weilai take a boat first, it just so happens that there are dozens of big boats you borrowed from Jiangzhou over there in Penglangdu, draw one ......"

was caught in blue and whispered, only to see the young county commander pause.

"What made Merlot go first?"

Ouyang Rong, who was speechless, suddenly asked loudly.

The sound resounded throughout the audience, and there was a lot of noise around them.

"Again, the official didn't hear clearly, what does it mean to let the family members of Merlot Park go by boat first?!"

Ouyang Rong questioned again in front of the audience.

The lobby was completely silent, and some people felt that the rain and thunder outside the lobby seemed to be much quieter.

The officials of the county government looked sideways.

Yan Liulang stayed in place, stunned and looked at Ouyang Rong, who was looking straight ahead at the moment and did not turn his head to look at him, but his words seemed to be scolding him again.

It's just that he accidentally touched the reverse scales, and under the countless sights, the blue-clothed catcher blushed, and he wanted to justify.

However, in an instant, Ouyang Rong's categorical words interrupted him:

"The family members of this official in Merlot Park do not take a boat!

"Dozens of official ships at Penglangdu Wharf won't move! I said it at the beginning, but you don't seem to have listened, but it doesn't hurt to repeat it again. ”

He doesn't squint:

"These official ships borrowed from Jiangzhou are used for disaster relief and flood control, not for the escape of the official or anyone!"

Yan Liulang was stunned, and vaguely realized that the words of the young county magistrate did not seem to be just for him.

The eyes in the lobby gathered silently, and the officials who were originally flustered and wanted to sneak home also quietly paused.

Ouyang Rong took a deep breath, looked around the audience, raised his right palm, and slashed the air obliquely:

"Including the officials, public weapons for private use, those who advocate abandoning the city can be beheaded!"

The atmosphere of the audience froze.

Ouyang Rong's expression suddenly closed, his face sneered with disdain, and he waved his sleeves violently:

"And why run? No need to run!

"There are the officials, the county officials, all the officials and people of Longcheng County, the wings and canals, and the efforts that have been made for so many days.

"The Di Gong Gate will not collapse, and the water will not flood Dragon City again!

"Running away in a hurry and ignorance, ignoring the colleagues who are at the forefront of the Di Gong Gate at this moment, giving his back to the flood, and sticking his head into the mud, is ridiculous, and it is a big joke in the world! It is a coward who will be recorded in the Longcheng County Chronicle for hundreds of generations of villagers to laugh at after a hundred years! ”

Ouyang Rong grabbed the Longcheng County Chronicle that had been used as an ornament on the public desk for a long time with his big hand, raised it towards everyone, posed it, and smashed it on the ground.

He brushed away the crowd in front of him who were stunned or bowed his head with one hand, and strode out of the county hall with a big stride:

"Let's go, go to Di Gongpa! Those who are not hometown shameful cowards, go with me! ”

The young county commander took the lead in rushing into the dark rain.

In the lobby behind him, there was silence for a moment, some people rushed forward with enthusiasm, some people followed in a daze, and some people hesitated, hesitated for a moment, dragging their footsteps to keep up with the large army outside......

The entire Longcheng County Government was quickly gathered around a certain resolute young county magistrate.

The sky thundered.

like the roar of a wild beast, and like the wrath of a god.

Half an hour later.

Peng Langdu.

There are more than a few people.

In the drizzle, countless torches illuminated the pier.

It's more lively than usual during the day.

Not long ago, under the rapid response command of a young county commander, the county officials urgently controlled the wharf.

Dozens of official ships borrowed from Jiangzhou, as well as temporarily requisitioned civilian boats, were gathered together and ready to go under the dispatch of Liu Ashan, who was good at water affairs, and other young people from the original disaster relief camp.

Everyone went to work step by step, got on the boat one after another, ordered the task, and took advantage of the fact that the waves were a little calmer, and the water level was not too outrageous to affect the normal navigation, they quickly left the ferry, and were transferred to all parts of Longcheng County by the young county order, among which the ships going to the Di Gong Gate of Yuenuxia were the most.

At this moment, the boarding port of a large ship that was about to sail to the Di Gong Gate was illuminated by several torches.

"Mingfu, help you."

Yan Liulang took the umbrella, took a few steps forward, supported Ouyang Rong, and boarded the boat.

Ouyang Rong glanced at him and boarded the ship silently.

Immediately afterwards, Yan Liulang also got on the boat with agility, but even though he was stopped by a big hand.

Liu Ahan pulled Yan Rokuro to a secluded place in the stern of the boat.

Like the busy people on the boat, Ouyang Rong was also dressed in a robe,

At this time, he stood alone in the stern of the boat, waiting in the drizzle with his head overhead.

As the background of the sky, silver and white electric snakes crawl all over the corner of the night.

"Ming Mansion?"

"Stay."

Ouyang Rong didn't reply.

"How can you not go to your humble position!"

"You and Diao County Cheng both stay in the county, on the side of Di Gong's gate, the official can go with Ah Shan, if the sluice gate collapses, it won't be ......worse for you," he whispered: "Besides, you have other important things to do." ”

"The sluice gate collapsed? Didn't the Ming Mansion say ......" Yan Liulang paused and said in a daze: "What...... Something important. ”

"The official is not here, maintain law and order in the county in the past two days and prevent the Liu family's ......

"In addition, regardless of the rich families who ran away, the remaining women, children, old and children, including the families of every colleague in the county government, and all the people in the county...... You and your squad go and gather them all together and take them to the Great Lonely Mountain. ”

"Big Lonely Mountain?"

"That's right, this official has already sent Diao County Cheng to arrange it in the past, and moved the disaster relief camp on the outskirts of the city that has not been disbanded to the mountain, where the terrain is high, suitable for the people of the county to take refuge in the flood.

"Over there in Donglin Temple, the official has also said hello, you can just take the people up, if you can't live, you can live in the temple, six thousand households of Longcheng people, a big lonely mountain can fit it, try not to leave anyone out.

"As soon as our ship leaves, you immediately go to mobilize everyone, this water is rising too fast, if the current speed of the water rises, it may be too late for another day.

"Be sure to bring all the people in the county to Dagu Mountain to settle down, just say that it is the arrangement of the county government, the order of the official, and the order of the imperial court!

"Pots and pans, gold, silver, jewelry, these belongings under the mountain, don't force them to take them away if you can't take them away, people are lost in land, people are lost in land, people are in land.

"I still remember what this official told you that day, it's a big deal to start all over again, even if the flood floods Dragon City, there will always be a day when the tide will recede, and you can build it again in the future......"

The young county magistrate advises on everything.

Liu Ahan silently turned his head and looked at the shadow of the robe at the bow of the boat, which was occasionally illuminated by the snow-white electric snake in the sky for a moment.

Yan Liulang, who was about to receive the order, heard the strange word "you", his eyelids jumped, and the more he listened, the more it seemed to be some kind of explanation.

Yan Liulang wanted to interject, but Ouyang Rong didn't give him a chance, and nagged throughout the whole process.

It wasn't until the boat was about to start that Liu Ahshan coughed lightly and reminded him that he paused, and waved his hand behind without looking back:

"Get off the boat. Here, I'll leave it to Rokuro. ”

Yan Liulang couldn't help but say:

"Ming Mansion, didn't you just say in the county government that the Di Gong Gate will not collapse, we can defend it, why do you now let your subordinates gather everyone to take refuge in the mountain......

Yan Liulang's words were stuck.

In fact, the rain in Longcheng County, which is downstream tonight, is not heavy, the sparse and sparse oblique wind and drizzle, and the wind and waves on the Butterfly Creek are not big, which is quite calm.

However, everyone on the field knew that the heavy rain around Yunmengze for several days was the culprit, and with the rising water, a certain big flood was brewing calmly, just to see if the newly repaired Di Gong Gate could hold up.

At this moment, the stern of the boat under the drizzle also fell into an eerie silence.

Ouyang Rong, who was dressed in a robe to protect himself from the rain, turned around.

On the dark face under the straw hat, a pair of bright and calm eyes made Yan Liulang stop talking.

Got it.

"Whoa."

The blue-clothed catcher quickly lowered his head and slowly clenched his fists.

It seemed that the atmosphere was a little dignified, and Ouyang Rong smiled:

"What are you thinking, with the official here, the gate will not collapse, this arrangement is just in case, you kid just do your own thing, wait for the official to come back, another day on a sunny day, Yunshui Pavilion drink tea and walk."

Yan Liulang sighed, I want to say that the health tea business of Yunshui Pavilion was not ordered to be rectified by the Ming Mansion, is it possible to order it to be changed back?

But for now, he still didn't say it after all.

"Mingfu take care."

Yan Liulang whispered a word, and finally got off the boat without looking back.

After sending people away, Ouyang Rong took a long breath, finally glanced back at the familiar Longcheng County in the night, turned around and faced the upper reaches of Butterfly Creek, and waved his hand to order.

In the short air, Penglang Ferry, one after another official ships sailed out.

On Butterfly Creek, the wind and waves are getting higher and higher.

Ouyang Rong and others rushed upstream overnight.

Along the way, they could see from time to time on both sides of the Butterfly Creek, and there were villagers who had abandoned their houses and fled to the county seat of Longcheng.

Once the flood comes, the closer to the upper reaches of the Yuenu Gorge, the more dangerous it becomes, and the current signs of rising water naturally make the people of the subordinate villages of Longcheng County, which is close to the Yuenu Gorge, worry and leave their homes one after another.

On the way to Digong Gate, Ouyang Rong was not idle, and sent county officials to both sides of Butterfly Creek to organize the displaced people to go to Longcheng County in an orderly manner.

According to the instructions he left, right now, in Longcheng County, Yan Liulang and the others should be trying their best to organize the people of Longcheng to go to the preset refuge camp in Dagu Mountain.

The cold wind was blowing, thinking of the layout of Longcheng County in the rear, thinking of the little junior sister who was far away in the sky, and thinking of Ye Weilai and other familiar maids who should have been transferred up the mountain in time by Liulang, Ouyang Rong's heart was a little calm, and his eyes became resolute.

However, as the ships got closer and closer to the Di Gong Gate.

Not only did they expect more rain and heavier wind and waves.

Ouyang Rong and others also found that the water in the river had become turbid.

Between the mountains and wilderness on both sides of the river, there are wild animals fleeing.

From time to time, there was one or two loud noises that were different from thunder, like some mudslide that had been pouring for miles.

Ouyang Rong's eyes had a moment of trance.

He clearly remembered that when he arrived at the Pure Land Palace at the beginning of the day, when he tried to climb up the entrance of the cave, there was a huge thunderous sound outside the underground palace.

It should be the sound of the old gate of Di Gong being washed down overnight.

So, is it coming again?

Fortunately, this time it seemed that there was no Liu family to blow up the gate, and Ouyang Rong and the others were terrified for a little night, and there was no sound of the world-destroying thunder collapsing gate.

In the end, before the third watch, a huge sluice with dark clouds overhead slowly appeared in the field of vision of everyone on the ship.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he looked from afar, behind the Di Gong Gate, above the nine hundred miles of vast Yunmengze, there were thick dark clouds as black as ink.

Press on the head of the Di Gong gate.

In contrast, the gate is like a thin, narrow plank inserted into the only outfall of a pond.

Four-gap water leakage.

Crumbling.

It's me, Xiao Rong who hasn't asked for leave 520521!
