For not far ahead, on the road they had to pass, the river rose so violently that it flooded the road, and in the middle formed a huge Ze country.

I don't know how high it will rise, but in that part of the woods, only part of the canopy can be seen, and most of the trees are submerged with the canopy.

Above the murky waters, there were a few fluttering people, a few dying animals, and countless fish.

It seems that the river has risen suddenly, otherwise it would not have drowned people and animals.

Who would have thought that the persistence of the Zhao family would actually save the lives of these people.

If these people, or carrying heavy loads, or wearing shackles, or the elderly, or the sick, were suddenly caught in the flood, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The flood continued to rise upward, baring its fangs and engulfing everything, rushing all the way in all directions.

Maybe it won't be long before they get to where they are staying.

Du Ruoli ran desperately down the mountain, shouting loudly as she ran: "Run, the flood is coming, run quickly......"

Her shouts alarmed the crowd.

Except for the Zhao family who buried the old man, the rest were stunned for a moment, and then rushed to their luggage from the mountain, from the roadside, and from all corners, hurriedly carrying their luggage. Whether there is a road or not, grab everything you can to climb up.

The hillside was littered with people who were snoring and panting, and Du Ruoli rushed to Du Ruoqiu in one breath and took her sister Du Ruoyu from her.

When he wanted to pick up the luggage from Zhou Daya's husband, Du Zhixiao, the other party refused: "Let's go, it's not heavy, I have to move on my back." Don't waste time. ”

"Thank you very much!"

Du Ruoli didn't pull with him, holding her sister with one hand and grasping the trees or grass in the forest with the other, climbing up with difficulty.

Lu Jizhou came down from the mountain, swept past her quickly, so fast that he could only see an afterimage, swept a few steps to the location of the new grave at the bottom of the mountain, and commanded in a deep voice: "The flood is coming, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late!" ”

The Zhao family looked at the new grave that had just been put in the coffin and had not yet had time to fill in the soil, and all shook their heads.

In a short time, they only need a short moment to put the deceased old man to rest. They swore in front of their ancestors that they would make everyone decent, decent, and decent, and decent.

The funeral is so simple that it can't be more simple, how can there be any reason to give up halfway?

Lu Jizhou looked straight at Mrs. Zhao and asked, "The flood is coming, and the escape time is only a short moment, do you want these living people to be buried for the deceased?" ”

"Don't!"

Old Mrs. Zhao immediately came to her senses, no longer hesitated and entangled, and waved her big hand: "Go, the Zhao family will go with me." The ancestors who have not yet settled in the earth have spirits in the sky, and they will not blame us. He died at this time so that we could avoid the flood, and we could not live up to his wishes. ”

The old lady responded, and the Zhao family put down their work and gathered behind her.

She lifted her little baggage, and walked along the road that Du Ruoli had just run down, and it was also the only road that could be called the road, striding up without looking back.

The family followed in an orderly manner, following her example, not looking back, and not nostalgic for the deceased.

The mountain road is difficult to walk, the soil is soaked by the rain and is soft and sticky, and the shoes are covered with paste, and every step weighs like a thousand pounds. When you encounter a slippery road, you can't climb up anyway, and you need someone behind you to push it...... It took me half an hour to climb hard, and I barely reached the halfway point of the mountain, barely safe.

"Boom...... Rumble...... Boom ......"

Not long after standing halfway up the mountain, the flood in the distance rushed like a monstrous beast, engulfing everything.

Everywhere I passed, there was an ocean.

The bushes where they had piled their luggage, the large rocks where they sat and rested, and the newly dug graves were all submerged and sunk to the bottom.

Because of the fight together, Du Zhizhong and Zhang Xiuhe, who missed the best time to escape, were also swept into the water when they crawled to a small half.

Zhang Xiuhe is a landlubber, desperately fluttering in the water, shouting for help. Every time you shout, you pour a large mouthful of muddy water. With each flutter, the person sinks a little lower.

Du Zhizhong knows a little bit of dog planing, and he is not so afraid of water, but he is only floating on the water, unable to swim out, and has to wait for someone to rescue.

Zhang Xiuhe's husband had no master, and the children were so frightened that they cried, kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to the patriarch Du Changxing: "Patriarch, please save my mother, please save my mother, please save my mother." ”

Du Zhizhong's father and brother also knelt over, crying and pleading: "Patriarch, save us!" It won't rain anymore at this time, the flood won't come, and there will be no danger if you go down to save people. ”

The patriarch was one head and two big, and he saw that the errand had found a leeward place and used the stove to make a fire to cook meat to eat, and he had no intention of leaving for the time being. Gritted his teeth and said: "Families with men, each have a man, go down to the water to save people!" Families without men prepare a bite to eat for the rescuers. ”

Families with male children ignore him.

Du Zhizhong's family is complete nonsense, who stipulates that the water will not rise when the rain stops? It's going to go up at any time, don't think about coming back if you go, no one wants to die.

is even more reluctant to send people like Du Zhizhong and Zhang Xiuhe to death.

Families without men did not bother with him.

They all said that there are no men, where do they get food for others to eat? Shouldn't it be the two families who intercede? The patriarch should not be too partial.

The scene cooled down for a while, and the patriarch looked at the clansmen in disbelief: "You don't listen to the old man's arrangement, do you?" The old man's words are like a fart, isn't it? The old man has been busy for the family for most of his life, and he has no merit and hard work, and he ended up like this! Okay, very good, very good, this patriarch is not the old man, whoever of you likes to be. Don't look for an old man if you have something to do in the future! ”

The Du clan looked at each other, and the patriarch picked on the son, didn't they have no backbone?

But compared with one's own life and food, there is no backbone. Since their exile, they seem to have never done anything and have come back well.

People are afraid of comparison, Mrs. Zhao's kind of talented backbone. Du Changxing is a fart, don't do it.

Du Changxing waited for a long time, but he didn't wait for the clansmen's apology and pleading; Before waiting for the clansmen to lead him, they twisted into a rope and rescued their relatives in distress.

The people of the Du clan are no longer the people of the Du clan in the past, they have become treacherous, selfish, and do not listen to orders.

Is it really necessary to take care of such a clan?

Du Changxing leaned against the tree dejectedly, a little disheartened.

The two families saw that their clansmen were not together, and their relatives were becoming more and more dangerous, so they had to run down alone.

Du Changgui glanced around and called a few familiar men: "In this way, let's go and help." Stay away from the water's edge, find a sturdy spot close to it, tie yourself up, and leave someone by your side to take care of it. Send a bamboo into the water and let the people in the water grab it. ”

This suggestion is reliable, it can save people and prevent yourself from being in debt of conscience. You don't have to be in danger all the time, and if you don't do it, you will lose your life.

"Listen to you, that's it!"

The men who were ordered by him echoed one after another, and those who did not order were not to be outdone, and asked to follow.

In less than half a burnt of incense, Du Changgui gathered a team of thirty people and went down to save people.
