281. You can think of it with your toes
On the morning of the eleventh day, the rain suddenly weakened, from a super heavy rainstorm to a moderate rain in an instant, and then to a light rain in the afternoon, and even stopped for about a quarter of an hour in the evening.
The change in the rain on this day gave everyone hope, although in the blink of an eye the rain turned into heavy rain, heavy rain, and extremely heavy rain again.
What is the action of the county, Linjiagou Village, which is at the very edge of Caolu County, knows nothing, they only know that their persistence sees hope, and they really don't seem to have to flee.
The water from the South Lake has long been overflowing, and the water flows into the channel to the west of the village, which is common to all nearby villages, and is mainly used for diversion in the summer when there is a lot of rain.
But even if there is a channel, it won't work this year, the rain is too strong, the small channels are flooded, and the water is almost overflowing to the gate of the westernmost household in Linjiagou Village.
You must know that although their village seems to be located in a ravine surrounded by mountains on all sides, from the direction of the west mountain, their village can be regarded as halfway up the east mountain, but there are too many mountains in the east, they are located in one of the valleys, and in general, the lowest position is this channel, otherwise they would not dig a ditch here.
On this day, the water rose to the halfway point of the East Mountain, which shows that the flood has risen, even if the rain is light for half a day and stops for a quarter of an hour, it only makes it drop a few inches.
However, even if there is hope, the rain may stop again, and the people of their Linjiagou Village will not be able to get out, they are trapped in the village.
As for Yue Jiuyue's family, Lin Chaodong and Lin Chaonan, who had originally chosen to stay three to two, turned their faces dark the next morning after learning that the water level had risen again.
"Mother, I should have listened to the words of Kai at the beginning, but now the water level is rising again! The patriarch also said to several clan grandfathers, looking at the sky, it is estimated that it will not stop for ten days and half a month, let's, let's ......"
Lin Chaodong couldn't go on, thinking that he might be forced to leave his home by the rising flood and live on a mountain with nothing, and when the time came, if nothing else, the rain alone would make everyone get cold, and they would not be treated, and what the result would be in the end, he could think of it with his toes.
And this is because Yue Jiujiu asked them to raise their hands to vote.
It was also because Yue Jiujiu didn't want to embark on the road of escape at all, so the only remaining bit of reason was suppressed by luck, and the current situation was achieved.
"Don't panic, our family is the highest in the village, even if there is something, it is the last. Now the brothers and sisters will first pack up the thatched houses built by the well digging team before, as well as the two rooms behind and the west house, and then go to the cellar and take out a few bags of grain and put them in my house, and from then on, our family will sleep in two rooms. ”
After Yue Jiujiu finished speaking, Liu couldn't help but ask:
"Mother, what are you doing here?"
"Just in case, I don't know if I need it."
The three brothers put on their robes and hats, and went out obediently.
Lin Chaodong went to clean up the back two rooms, Lin Chaonan and Lin Chaobei cleaned up the west house, and even the rabbits and chickens moved to the house where they lived, just so that there could be more shelter and shelter from the wind and rain.
