Chapter 42: The Black Panther and the Boy (32)
Entering the village to spend the night or finding a high ground to live on, for Changsheng, naturally there is not much difference.
However, Liu Kongqing was kind-hearted, thinking that if there was really a flood, with him and Liu Run, he would be able to help the old, weak, sick and disabled in this village run faster.
So they decided to go into the village anyway.
However, before entering the village, Liu Kongqing had a clichΓ© about Changsheng.
The theme is nothing more than to maintain her "ordinary pet" character, even if he is in danger, as long as he does not open his mouth for help, he cannot expose his ability.
Every time they approach the human settlement, the children have to "warn", and the ears of the immortal listener are calloused.
However, she also knew that the child had always been afraid that others would find out that she was unusual, and she was even more afraid that he would not be able to protect her.
In fact, when she first became a bell doctor, the child would even let her hide outside the village in advance before entering the village.
No matter how Changsheng promised and persuaded her, the child just wouldn't let her appear in front of people.
According to the child's words to comfort Changsheng, that is, "Changsheng is the most beautiful cub in the crowd, as long as he is not blind, he can't ignore it, it's too conspicuous." β
Hehe, there is one more "black cat" in the "people" group, of course you can see it if you are not blind, isn't this special nonsense?
Later, when he saw that Changsheng was "really angry", the child relented, but it was unavoidable to talk back to nag.
In order to prevent the child from giving her a headache afterwards, Changsheng also listened to these "warnings".
And she always knew that she was a passerby to the child after all, and it was impossible to accompany him to the end of her life.
When she leaves, he will have to go on his own in the future.
Therefore, during the journey, although the child will discuss everything with her, the child will rarely interfere or refute the decisions made by the child.
And many times, in fact, the child is always taking care of her, except for eating, there is no need to spend her life thinking about anything.
Moreover, children are not saintly fathers, they pay attention to everything according to their ability, and they will never rely on the ability "exposed" by immortality to be casually good-hearted.
Even if Changsheng didn't take the initiative to participate, he would subconsciously ignore Changsheng's force value.
The children of their own family are so independent and can carry it clearly, which makes Changsheng even more distressed, so he will take the initiative to send out the water beads and the beads of things.
This person gets along with others, and it is probably just a sentence of "sincerity for sincerity".
......
Because of the flood problem on the Jiang side, villages and towns are all built on higher ground, and there are many flood places, and there is a flood control building every other pavilion (ten miles).
Flood monitoring buildings, as the name suggests, are small buildings that monitor floods, and are built on top of a nearby high hill.
As long as the flood breaks out within a radius of ten miles, it can be detected as soon as possible.
As soon as there is any sign of flooding, the flood supervisor will ring the bell and the villages within the pavilion will hear the bell and quickly evacuate to the highest ground around.
And the sound of the town's flood bell can also warn the nearby flood control building, and it also rings the bronze bell to pass on the imminent flood in turn, so that people can quickly move.
I heard that when the Zhenhong Bell was minted at the beginning, the copper ore of Jiang Guo was not enough to mint copper coins, and even the copper coins of the Seven Kingdoms appreciated greatly for a period of time.
However, now that the rain is strong and windy, and there are gusts of thunder, it is likely that the bell of this town will not be able to convey far.
This may be one of the reasons why the village is so brightly lit but silent.
The storm drowned out the sound of horses' hooves and wheels rolling, and naturally no one in the house could hear the knock on the door outside the yard.
Liu Kongqing had to carry a re-lit air death lamp and shouted vigorously to the courtyard of the first house at the entrance of the village.
Therefore, not only this one opened the door, but many people who listened to the movement outside hurriedly came out to watch.
When Liu Kongqing hugged Changsheng and led Liu Ran to run, he was invited into his yard by the old village chief who stayed in the village, and the old and sick who stayed behind breathed a sigh of relief and continued to raise his heart.
If someone from the other side of the dam does not come back to report the news, it proves that the flood did not happen, but if no one comes back from the other side of the embankment, it means that the situation of the flood control embankment is not optimistic, and it is likely that the embankment will be washed away by the flood in the next second.
Let's not talk about others, let's just say that the old village chief of this village received him warmly after seeing Liu Kongqing's identity document (issued by the country where he was born), the doctor's qualification certificate (issued by the Physician Association) and the hand bell symbolizing the identity of the bell doctor (this is also cast by the Physician Association, with different codes on it).
Although there are many ignorant people in the villages, they are generally very simple and welcoming.
Not to mention that the doctors of the sea and the mainland, especially the bell doctors, are very revered professions in the countryside, and there is no one.
This is because most bell doctors not only treat people, but also livestock.
And for doctors of the same level, most of them are not only more approachable in attitude than doctors in the hall, but also cheaper in terms of cost.
After informing each other of their identities and names, seeing that Liu Kongqing was admitted to the junior doctor at a young age and acted very politely, the already smooth but sincere village chief Zhao Tian Zhao was even more hospitable.
"Old woman, this is Doctor Liu who came to shelter from the rain, hurry up and bring a bowl of ginger tea boiled on the stove to Doctor Liu first.
The third daughter-in-law, first find a clean dress for Mingzi and bring it over. β
Entering the house, without waiting for Liu Kongqing to speak, the village chief Zhao, who seemed to be in his sixties, crackled and gave an order.
After speaking, he smiled at Liu Kongqing and said, "Mingzi is my fourth grandson, and his body is about the same size as Doctor Liu, don't dislike it, change your wet clothes first." Take off your shoes too, and I'll bake them for you. β
Liu Kongqing has long adapted to the enthusiasm of the people in the village, and he is not embarrassed at the beginning.
But he hurriedly spoke: "Old village chief, don't be so troublesome, I brought clothes in the carriage." And my coat and shoes are specially made, and the clothes inside are not wet. β
Saying that, Liu Kongqing took off his coat and rain hat to show the old village chief.
"Jiang Guo's fish skin clothes have a long history, and I am just picking up people's teeth. β
But it turned out that Liu Kongqing's coat and rain hat were sewn with a layer of fish skin for making fish skin clothes.
The shoes are also fishskin boots, with a layer of straw sandals on the outside to prevent slipping.
This kind of fish skin is light and waterproof, and only the cuffs are a little wet on Liu Kongqing's body.
The old village chief of Zhao Tian squinted at it through the oil lamp, and said strangely: "We people in the water town have been dealing with water and fish all year round, and we have also made fish skin clothes by ourselves, but we never thought that this fish skin could be used like this." β
At this time, the village chief's daughter-in-law also brought a bowl of hot ginger soup into the house.
There should also be a little brown sugar in this ginger soup, which smells spicy and sweet, which is a high-standard treatment in the farmer's house.
This time, Liu Kongqing was not polite, thanked the old woman, took the bowl and wanted to drink it all.
Before he could put his mouth down, Changsheng, who was stimulated by the pungent smell of ginger soup, couldn't help but sneeze.
It wasn't loud, but everyone in the room heard it.
Liu Kongqing paused, and then smiled helplessly at the old village chief and his wife, "It's rude."
Then he took the bowl in one hand and took out a "little black cat" from his arms with the other hand.
Changsheng was not embarrassed at all, and after "seeing the light again", he said "meow" to the old village chief and his wife, and jumped from the child's hands to the ground, far away from the ginger soup that night.
For a "leopard" with a sensitive sense of smell, the taste of ginger soup is definitely comparable to that of a bioweapon.
