Chapter 259: A flash flood erupts
"You go back first, I'll go find Uncle Yuejin."
Li Huan didn't even bring an umbrella, and quickly ran to Chen Yuejin's house, Chen Yuejin is Wang Xiangyang's father-in-law, Caiqin's father, who has been a hunter all his life, and has also experienced the last flood.
"What do you say, the animals are running away, walking, going up the mountain."
Chen Yuejin didn't think about it, he took down the coat and hat from the wall, and handed Li Huan a set, Li Huan hurriedly followed Chen Yuejin's example and draped the coat on his body.
Seeing that Chen Yuejin also brought a clay gun and various tools, Li Huan secretly remembered in his heart, this is a valuable experience, and he must remember it well.
The two of them ran up the hill in the mud, and finally came halfway up the mountain, and sure enough, they saw pheasants and hares running in all directions, and even the insects and ants underground were moving quickly.
Chen Yuejin didn't look at those hares and pheasants, but stared at the insects and ants, seeing which direction they were crawling, and hurriedly walked over.
Half an hour later, they came to the right side of the mountain, Chen Yuejin looked at Li Huan seriously, he judged that even if there was a flash flood, it would flow down from the other side, and this side should be safe.
And this is just his experience, he can't guarantee it if he is not reliable, Li Huan nodded again and again, experience is precious, no matter what, find some caves first, let the villagers hide.
The two quickly discussed, Chen Yuejin went to find the cave, and Li Huan went down to inform him, but this time Li Huan miscalculated, many people were reluctant to leave their homes, they didn't believe that there would be floods here.
"You first take the important belongings of the family, bring the bedding and dry food, go up the mountain to hide, if it is really okay, it is a false alarm, in case something happens, you must not forget the flood more than 20 years ago."
As soon as these words came out, the older villagers became nervous, but the younger villagers shook their heads with a smile, their ruffian village chief has only been reliable for a few years, why is it unreliable.
"I'll listen to Huan cub, Xiangyang, take your daughter-in-law and younger brothers and sisters up the mountain first, and I'll come with your father later."
Aunt Wang hurriedly raised her hand, she asked Xiangyang and Caiqin to go up the mountain first, so that she could also seize a good cave to hide, she wanted to go back to make cakes and boil water, and she also wanted to eat and drink on the mountain.
All the members of the security team also listened to Li Huan, but they couldn't leave now, but had to escort the old, weak, women and children in the village up the mountain safely.
Of course, there are still more than a dozen families who don't want to go, and they follow Huan Cub to earn some money, the house that has just been built, and the new furniture and bicycles, so that they can give up these things until they die.
Li Huan didn't have time to ink with them, but returned to the village committee, picked up the phone and called the commune, and the commune secretary received Li Huan's call and his expression became serious.
"Comrade Li Huan, I order you to ensure the safety of the villagers, evacuate those who should be evacuated, and enforce those who are disobedient."
Li Huan nodded again and again, he could only keep his own village, and he couldn't manage other villages, those villagers who were unwilling to go up the mountain, Li Huan's attitude was very direct.
Take a few members of the security team, pick up a shovel, and smash it on the new furniture of their house, don't you be reluctant to give up these things outside your body, and then smash them.
It took six or seven hours from Cheng Qiao and Li Huan to all the villagers going up the mountain, and Chen Yuejin was also very good, he was very familiar with the mountain, so he found more than a dozen caves that could accommodate dozens of people.
Cheng Qiao was not empty, she asked Li's mother to take Li Le's pancakes to boil water, and she and Ye Jun took Xuhui and his grandmother, and two children to go up the mountain first.
If this old and young person goes up the mountain together with a large group of villagers, it is easy to have an accident, and Grandma Xuhui's legs and feet are not dexterous, so she can only take the first step.
Xuhui looked at Cheng Qiao, who was carrying his grandmother up the mountain in front, his heart was warm, he tightened the back basket on his body, and followed cautiously step by step.
"Cheng Qiao, Doctor Ye, you come here, this cave is small and high."
Cheng Qiao looked at the sunken one, there were huge boulders blocking it, and the rain couldn't get in at all, and the cave was not big, at most a dozen square meters, and he was very satisfied.
Xuhui hurriedly took out the tight futon wrapped in plastic sheeting, put it in the innermost part of the cave, and asked his grandmother to sit down first, and then ran in and out to find stones and build a simple stove.
"Master, the child and grandma are handed over to you, I'll go down the mountain first."
"Hey, be careful."
"Mom, I'm also with you, at least I can carry a little something."
The little Xuhui raised his head high, Cheng Qiao thought about it, nodded and agreed, there is a master on the mountain, the two children will definitely have no problem, and grandma can also help a little.
When she went up the mountain again, there were obviously more people, and Cheng Qiao asked Li's mother to take Li Le and Xuhui to follow the villagers up the mountain with a backpack, while she was busy in the house.
All the things were included in the space, of course, those furniture and other things were ready to give up, and some things in the kitchen were also cleaned up, so I went to find Li Huan.
Li Huan hadn't drunk a sip of water for several hours, and when he saw Cheng Qiao coming, he hurriedly pretended to be pitiful, Cheng Qiao gave him a blank look, took out the kettle and snacks, and let him eat and drink enough.
Finally forcibly brought the last seed in the village up the mountain, Li Huancai and Cheng Qiao supported each other to go up the mountain, and saw the old cow trapped in the mud and couldn't move, Cheng Qiao glanced left and right, and quickly gave the old cow a space.
The rain kept falling, and everyone was worried for the night, but the next evening, there was no shadow of the flash flood, and some villagers began to complain, and some even wanted to go down the mountain.
Li Huan took out the earthen gun, whoever dared to go down the mountain, he would collapse whom, although it was already a society ruled by law, but the ruffian village chief was really angry, and these people were afraid.
When he was at a stalemate, Chen Yuejin suddenly shouted: "The flash flood is coming." ”
Everyone heard the sound of muffled thunder, and ran to the mouth of the cave to take a closer look, where was the muffled thunder, but a huge torrent carrying dense water vapor, pouring down towards Xiangyang Village from another direction.
Chen Yuejin had words in his mouth, and Li Huan came closer to hear it, it turned out that he was praying that the Xiangyang River could catch the water, otherwise, the village would be flooded again.
The villagers stopped talking, and the eyes that looked at Li Huan were grateful, just by the escape of the animals in the mountains, they could have a premonition of a flash flood, this village chief was too capable.
Li Huan's heart was also shocked to the extreme, fortunately, Cheng Qiao, if it wasn't for Cheng Qiao's reminder, if he didn't believe in his daughter-in-law very much, he would take immediate action, and Xiangyang Village would be wiped out.
I don't know how long it took, but there was a cry from behind, and the villagers knew that they were going bankrupt again as they watched the huge waves of water rush down the mountain.
