Disgusted that the clothes were in the way, Lord Lu directly untied the hat and the clothes and threw them on the embankment.

The cold rain hit them, and there was only the sound of roaring water and the howling rain on the embankment.

Lord Lu, they held shovels to block the surging river.

Compared with Hedong Village, which is full of holes, Hexi Village is difficult.

The terrain was already low, and the river swelled, and in addition to the backflow, it finally overflowed the embankment.

Ma Quanyou was anxious and said, "What should I do with my brother?" The blockage can't be blocked, but behind us is a cotton field, it's our home, and it's all over if it's going to be flooded. ”

"I know, I know." Lian Li said in a panic, "I don't have so many worries now, so I can only jump into the water and block it." ”

"It's not going to work, it's not going to work, it's been washed away, and the bones can't be found." Ma Quanyou shook his head like a rattle when he heard this, and said.

"Listen to me, the hemp rope is tied together, and we are arm in arm." Lian Li took a step forward, took his arm and said, "Let's form a wall, the water is big, we can't wash us all away!" ”

"This?" Ma Quanyou's face changed slightly, and he looked at him hesitantly.

"Dad, make a decision!"

"It's a matter of human life, and you have to think carefully." Ma Quanyou looked at his eldest son and said.

"I'll take the hemp rope first." When the words fell, he ignored his father, pulled his legs and ran away.

"Is there no other way?" Ma Quanyou looked at him with six gods and said.

"Sandbags are the most suitable, but we've got wheat in the sacks." Lian Li Chang said truthfully, "Now that the water has overflowed, the blockage can't be blocked, and the embankment is almost broken." ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone shouting: The embankment has been broken, the embankment has been broken.

The two of them ran towards the sound, and the raging flood roared into it.

"There's no time to think about it." The company commander raised his eyes and looked at Ma Quanyou and said.

"Hemp rope, hemp rope." Ma Quanyou shouted loudly.

"Here we are!" Ying's father pointed to the flooded hemp rope.

"Let's go old fellows!" Ma Quanyou took the hemp rope and said.

"Dad, how can you get on! We are young and strong, we are up. ”

"Stinky boy, is this a joke? We're older than you, and we've seen more than you. You haven't married or had children yet! Ma Quanyou looked at his second child and said, "Okay, don't argue, let's go." ”

The company commander took the hemp rope and said, "Let's go." ”

"Brother Lian, this is a matter of our Hexi Village, why are you so active." Ma Quanyou pulled out the hemp rope in his hand.

"What else is Hedong and Hexi, hurry up." Lian Li Chang glanced at him angrily and said, "I believe we will all be safe." ”

The lieutenant commander of the company began to tie the hemp rope, and even the hemp rope brought by the boss of the Ma family was used.

"Are you ready?" Ma Quanyou shouted at the top of his voice.

"Ready."

"I'll jump in on the number one, two, three." Ma Quanyou tore his throat and shouted, "One, two, three......"

"Puff, puff......" They jumped into the raging flood.

There are hemp ropes tied to them, some have slippery feet, they are unstable and washed by the water, and they are pulled up the moment they fall.

Standing up tremblingly, he was beaten by the waves and floods.

When they are firmly on their feet, the second group is ready, jump down, hold the people who are standing, and walk forward to fill the gap.

More than ten zhang of the mouth of the embankment, people were sent down in batches, tied with hemp rope, arm by arm, forming a steel wall to block the flood.

This only reduces the flow of flood water into the fields, which is already the best result.

Lian Li snorted, spit out the yellow mud soup in his mouth, this deep pneumothorax, fortunately tied with hemp rope and holding his arm.

This is if one, or two, are designated to be washed away without a trace.

The company commander tilted his head slightly to look at Ma Quanyou beside him and said, "I hope I don't break the embankment again." ”

"I also hope that this thief will not go down again." Ma Quanyou looked up at the gloomy sky.

"Why are you still scolding, you're not afraid of being damned!" The company commander looked at him amusedly and said.

'Shouldn't you be scolded for this kind of rain?' Ma Quanyou snorted.

"It would be nice if I scolded it for not stopping." The company commander looked up at the cloudy sky and said, "Thief, don't go down." ”

The thieves who came and went one after another said goodbye, and finally synthesized together and rushed into the sky: Thief God, don't go down.

Lord Lu looked at the other side of the river with a sharp gaze, "How long can this embankment last?" ”

"I don't know how long it lasts." Even Wanyou hurriedly said, "It's all loess, to be honest, it grows so big, this river has never had such a big water." It's the first time I've met. ”

"It's only a matter of time before the levee bursts." Ye Sanniang looked at Lord Lu with cold eyes and said.

"What then?" Lord Lu looked at her anxiously and said.

Hearing the sound of the embankment bursting from the other side, Lord Lu's heart rose to his throat.

"What to do? What to do? Lord Lu was as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

"Look, look." Lian Wanyou pointed to the opposite riverbank and said, "Lord Lu." ”

"What do they want to do?" Lord Lu's eyes widened like copper bells as he looked at the other side of the road.

"Jump in and be a human wall to stop the flood from flooding into the fields and homes." Ye Sanniang looked at the simple men with a moving expression.

"Nonsense, nonsense, this jump down, was washed away, and there are no bones left." Lord Lu shouted at the other side, "No, no. He was so anxious that he jumped to his feet, and his voice was crushed.

"Lord Lu, calm down, they are tied with hemp rope, arm in arm, it's fine." Ye Sanniang said confidently, "Look! ”

Lord Lu looked through the rain and fog, and sure enough, the people were well prepared, and the people who were submerged in the water were pulled up in an instant.

Lord Lu watched them stand firmly in the midst of the flood, like a strong city wall, resisting the raging flood with their flesh and blood.

"Aren't they afraid?" Lord Lu shook his lips and said with a moving face.

"Afraid, why not afraid? Who is not afraid of death. Lian Wanyou put his hands on his knees and choked, "But what can I do?" Someone has to stand up, and behind us is the fields of crops, which is our home, and if it is really flooded, it will be all over. ”

"Thief, don't go down."

Lord Lu looked at the imposing farmer on the other side of the bank in astonishment, "Does this scolding work?" ”

"Who knows? You have to be angry! Ye Sanniang slightly hooked the corners of her lips and smiled.

"That's God." Lord Lu turned his head slightly to look at her and said.

"What's the matter, shouldn't you scold?" Ye Sanniang's eyebrows Qingyang looked at him with shining eyes and said, "Oh! "I feel like the rain is getting lighter." ”

"Seems to be." Lian Wanyou said excitedly, looking at the river bank opposite, "I can see it more clearly." "That's right." ”
