The water level is still rising.

The crowd has already learned that they need to take a risk.

Some of the unused soft ones were packed and placed in high places by everyone.

Men and women, young and old, all changed into light clothes.

The large sleeves of the wide robe were also tied with rope.

The three small boats that everyone was riding had already been dragged to the gate of the courtyard by Xu He when he found the rising water.

Xu He gave an order, and everyone in the courtyard gathered and prepared to board the ship.

At this moment, the subordinates of the Xu family who were guarding the courtyard received the news, and the people who dragged the family also followed.

Xue Yongzhi frowned when he saw this: "The boat is not big, it is too dangerous to bring so many people!" ”

Xu He didn't look at the seven Xu family members who were perched in panic in the rainstorm, these people were looking at him in fear, obviously knowing that their fate was on his own group.

He is not an indecisive person, but Xu He can't do it if he lets his life be left to fend for himself and others on the island.

At this moment, Li Sikui tugged at his sleeve: "Senior brother, take them with you!" ”

As soon as the words fell, a group of people from the Xu family knelt down with the old and the young: "Crane Gongzi, take us!" ”

Seeing this, Xue Yongzhi gritted his teeth and said: "Xiaohe, if it were another time, I would definitely not leave the old and weak, but this time, this time ......"

Before he could speak, Lu Heng suddenly pushed Xue Yongzhi: "Xue Yongzhi, I thought you were still a number one among the nobles, but I didn't expect you to be so cold-blooded!" No, let's go, let's go together, otherwise everyone don't go, wait for someone to save together! ”

When Xue Yongzhi heard this, his face turned pale, and he gritted his teeth and whispered: "[Little ~ Gong ~ Master], you are a daughter, how can you take risks with us!" ”

Before Lu Heng could speak, Xu He suddenly said loudly: "Don't make any noise!" ”

At this time, the rain is a little lighter, and time waits for no one, and I don't know when the rain will pour down again.

Xu He didn't have time to ink with them.

Said directly: "The first ship, Little Hou Ye, you take Lu Heng, Gu and the two guards to go first!" ”

Lu Heng was immediately anxious when she heard this, she just wanted to say something, but who knew that Xu He didn't have time to talk nonsense with her, so she glared at her directly and yelled: "Shut up!" ”

When Lu Heng heard this, he was taken aback by Xu He, and his whole face suddenly wrinkled aggrievedly, and he was about to cry when he saw it.

But Xu He didn't have time to consider her feelings, so he turned his head to Wu Decao and said, "Brother Yaochen, you take the second boat, you take Si Kui and Sanrang, as well as the old housekeeper and Lu Heng's two maids!" ”

Wu Decao's face showed a look of struggle when he heard this, and after a while, he shook his head: "Liangsheng, you get on the second boat, and I will stay and take the third boat with the others!" ”

Xu He looked at Wu Decao in surprise when he heard this.

Wu Decao smiled bitterly and said: "Don't look at me like that, there are few people on the boat, and the water is shallow, and I am prone to seasickness if it is too bumpy." ”

There are few people on board, and the side of the boat is a cut above the water, so that the boat is not easy to enter the water.

There were three ships in total, and Xu He only arranged four or five people for the first two.

And he was obviously going to go with the people of the Xu family courtyard on the third ship.

There are seven descendants of the Xu family, and counting Xu He is eight people, and it is okay when the wind is calm.

But the lake was flooding, and it was raining heavily, and the slightest accident of the boat entering the water would end in capsizing.

Wu Decao naturally knew this truth, but although he struggled in his heart, he still stood up when he thought that Xu He would be in danger in this way.

That's right, even a child like Li Sikui thinks he is an annoying dog skin plaster, and he only knows how to take advantage of Xu He every day, but Xu He has never complained about him.

Wu Decao felt that if he didn't say something at this time, he would have no face to live in this world, and even if he went off the line this time, he would spend the rest of his life in self-blame.

Xu He listened to Wu Decao's words and looked at him in surprise for a long time, as if he knew him for the first time.

But in the end, he waved his hand and said: "Brother Yaochen, you just have this heart, don't worry, there is no danger, you must help me protect these two children, please!" ”

"Little crane!"

"Senior brother!"

"Xu cauldron!"

When Gu Hengbo and the two children heard this, tears fell like rain.

Xu He grabbed the two dolls one by one, and then said to Gu Hengbo in a relaxed tone as much as possible: "Meisheng, don't worry, although the lake is flooded, but this is a large water surface, and there are few narrow places, and the flow rate of the flood will be much slower!" ”

Gu Hengbo didn't argue with him, just wiped his tears and insisted: "Then change someone to the first ship, and I will accompany you!" ”

Xu He squeezed out a smile and said: "Don't fight, time is pressing, listen to me, I'll be following you, let's talk about it!" ”

He pointed to the bamboo cut overnight at the gate of the courtyard and said: "We have bamboo tied to the two strings, if the water is big, its buoyancy is enough to offset!" ”

Before Gu Hengbo could say more, Xu He waved his hand to stop her.

At this time, he turned his head to the people in the Xu family's courtyard: "The person who comes is a guest, there is danger, our Xu family will definitely not leave the guest to live!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at the descendants of the Xu family, most of the people standing here were the sons of the Xu family, that is, the descendants of the Xu family for several generations, Xu He said categorically: "As the Xu family, as the Xu family like you, I took this boat with you!" ”

These subordinates of the Xu family originally had a lot of opinions about Xu He's approach, and they all complained more or less in their hearts, but because the other party was deeply valued by the eldest lord, they didn't dare to attack.

But Xu He is indeed right, the Xu family, even if they are the children of the Xu family, in this era, they have a strong sense of identity with the Xu family, and their ancestors have been attached to the Xu family for generations, and even regard themselves as a member of the Xu family.

Now the hottest junior of the Xu family is also risking his life to take a boat with them, and everyone has nothing to say even if they complain at this time.

Seeing this, Xu He didn't talk nonsense, and directly asked everyone to get on the boat, and then led people to tie the bamboo to both sides of the boat.

Seeing that everyone was on the boat, he waved his big hand: "Start the boat!" ”

I saw three boats, each holding a paddleboard, and only one holding a penny.

Xue Yongzhi and their boat, the penny was light, and the boat left the courtyard gate and sailed towards the flood.

Then came the second one.

Wait for the first two to leave.

Xu He also pointed out that the boat was propped up from the shore.

Soon, when Xue Yongzhi and their boat were sailing to the lake not far away, suddenly, due to the flooding on the water, the boat suddenly accelerated and sailed ahead like an arrow from the string.

This was followed by the second, the third.

When the boat Xu He was sitting in was also pushed far away by the flood, through the rain curtain, he looked at the boat in front of him that was rising and falling in the waves, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although because of the flood, the speed at which the three boats traveled can be described as a lightning speed.

But fortunately, the water surface of Qinhu Lake is wide enough, and although the flood flow rate is still very fast, it is obviously within an acceptable range compared to other places.

Several ships are still in good hands.
