216. Gone

Hua Chengtian instinctively wanted to refuse, but looking at the child's indeed wet clothes and the child's firm gaze, he could only compromise.

If you want to help, you can help, there is not much work left and right, and then you will have a door with the previous layer of mud, and there will be enough security in safety, and you basically don't have to be afraid.

As for the dirt and hay, of course, they were also prepared in advance, and bags were neatly stacked in the cave.

The grandfather and the others are still very quick to work, seeing that Xiaosi and his sister can take care of the work of moving stones, the second brother Hua also went to help his father build the wall together.

The old man and the daughter-in-law did more detailed sorting in the cave, adjusted the position of the things they brought, and then surrounded the shelves where the grain was placed with oilcloth.

Last night, the time was too tight, just roughly cleaned up, and even the bed was simply laid on the ground with the bed board made in advance, and it was a night's rest, which would make the old man carefully add legs to the bed in each tent.

With the help of the children, Hua Chengtian finally surrounded the rocks outside the cave with stones, and covered the inner layer with a thick layer of mud to prevent water seepage.

On this day, whether they lived in a big cave or a small cave, everyone in Huajia Village did not leave the cave, and they were trying their best to clean up their temporary space comfortably.

It wasn't until the second day that the rain finally stopped pouring down, and although it was very large, it finally didn't hurt when it hit me.

After a day and a night in the cave, someone finally couldn't help but get out of the cave.

When going up the mountain, although everyone brought a lot of firewood, the rain was too big and too tight, who knows how long it will rain, and it is always unsteady to save more firewood.

Seeing that the rain was a little lighter, many people in the cave couldn't help it, and they were ready to go out to find more firewood with hats, robes, and knives for chopping wood.

It's a pity that there is less vegetation and more stones on the mountain where they are located, and there are only a few trees that can be cut down as far as the eye can see, and some of them are relatively stout, and the men of Huajia Village who can't come out together think about the adjacent mountains.

When I went up the mountain, I saw where the grass was abundant and there was no shortage of materials for fire.

Walking around, he swept down the mountain so inadvertently, and then more than a dozen Huajia Village men who came out together all widened their eyes and were stunned.

Even through the dense rain curtain through the gap between the two mountains, the waves of white flowers still clearly meet everyone's eyes, even the foot of the mountain where they are located is also full of water.

It was just a day apart, and it was clear that they were fine when they came, but for a while, many people were shocked and even speechless.

"It's flooded, it's all flooded," Lin Da muttered in shock,

"Oh my God...... It's all drowned in the mountains," Li Xiaoliu of Wang Guihua's family couldn't help shouting.

Almost at the same time, the big guy's face turned white, and the water flooded the mountain, so you can imagine what the situation of their village is, and what the end of the entire Shanggu Town is.

Frightened, frightened and glad, they still had the heart to chop wood, and they hurriedly ran up the mountain, especially the cave where the village chief was.

Eager to tell the big guy the news of the flooding to the bottom of the mountain.

"Our village is gone, gone, all gone, so big of the water, all flooded, flooded to the mountains."

The people who returned to the cave couldn't help but shout, and their faces couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears, and a few people even broke down and cried.

…… Their home is gone.

"What's that...... Are you telling the truth? ”

The sound of several people collapsing soon spread throughout the cave, more and more people gathered around, and more people rushed out of the cave to look down before they even had time to take their hats, and then what was waiting for them was to collapse and cry.

As far as the eye can see, there is water with white flowers, and even the forest below the mountain can only faintly see the treetops drifting with the waves.

The house they worked so hard to build for generations is really gone.

More and more people from the village came out, and more and more people sat on the rocks and broke down and cried.

Even if I have prepared in my heart, I can't help but feel pathos in my heart when I see that the sky is full of water.

For a while, the area where Huajia Village is located was full of crying, and when they came over, they saw the scene of everyone crying in the rain.

The homeland on which he relied for his survival was completely destroyed, and the impact of this scene was too great, and Rao Shihua, a strong man, couldn't help but grieve.

Strong self-control told him that he couldn't fall, and he choked up when he watched the sad villagers, but he couldn't let the big guy just get drenched in the rain.

The village is gone, the houses and things are gone, but the people are still there, as long as the people are still there, everything is possible.

Immediately raised his spirit, shouted loudly with his son in the rain, and everyone hurried back to the cave, and the old man was shouting at the top of his voice.

"Listen to me, listen to me...... Everyone hurried back to the cave, the rain was too cold, and the temperature was getting lower and lower day by day, but we must not suffer from the cold anymore, now we are not more sick than before, but there is no doctor to treat them, I understand that everyone's mood is also very sad, but sad can not be eaten and can not cure the grief in our hearts.

Yes, the disaster has made our village gone, but we are still there, we are all alive and well, everything that can be moved to the mountain has been moved, and there is also a place to live, think about the luck of those who are too late to withdraw to the mountain, it is not just a little but countless points, so we have to live well, as long as people are not afraid of anything, there will be Huajia Village in the future, listen to me quickly go back to the cave to change the clothes on the body, burn the hot ginger soup and drink a few bowls, at this time you must not get sick. ”

The old man's voice was broken, and he pulled up the people sitting on the mountain one by one.

"Village Chief, what can we do in the future?" Someone couldn't help but ask in the midst of the collapse.

"It's still not a man, if you're afraid, I'll ask you to pick the two things under your crotch, I'm afraid of a ball, we have money and food and warm clothes now, but we will build it after the village house is gone." The old man smacked hard, scolding and shouting loudly.

And such words finally woke up the people in Huajia Village in a daze.

I don't know why I mourned together, anyway, I just couldn't control it, especially when I thought that the home I had lived in for so many years was gone.

But the village chief's words woke them up.

Oh, yes! Although the village is gone, they have food, money, warm bedding, clothes, what to be afraid of.

Thanks to the village chief's three consecutive seasons of grain, plus the grain they went out to buy a few days ago, they didn't have thousands of catties of grain stored at home, not counting the thousands of catties of dried sweet potatoes and dried potato flour and thousands of catties of fresh sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Saving a little bit of these is enough to sustain everyone's life for a few years, not to mention that everyone also made a lot of money last year, plus the silver that sells sweet potatoes in the spring is not a few dozen taels, more than a hundred taels, a set of adobe houses can be built in a few taels, and even if a good brick house is built a large building, it can not exceed thirty taels......

Thinking of this, many people wiped a handful of water from their faces and stood up from the mountain, except for some daughters who were worried about getting married, the villagers of relatives in other villages, everyone's faces were much better.

Yes, they seem to be lucky compared to the people who were swallowed up by the flood.
