Chapter 415: Who will die when disaster strikes?

Views:

It took five days to talk about it. The water began to flood in various places. Several states almost covered the ocean. Even if there are mountains, it is useless. People who hide on the mountains do not have to worry about being washed by the water, but the mountains will slide. Yes, no matter how much vegetation there is on this mountain, as long as the soil is saturated, changes will occur.

The valleys in the mountains were also filled with water. The heavy rain was still falling. From time to time, people carried a board and drifted by. Qinzhou was flooded, Su Maozhou was flooded, Lianzhou was flooded, and Shangsizhou was also flooded. And Yangzhou is also in a place where large-scale rainfall is here.

The typhoon landed in Luzhou, and those who had already prepared moved to the valley. The big ship also hid far away. Only one more ship slowed down and was blown aground.

The gale circulated around the bay in Luzhou and never had the strength to go back. It gradually dissipated. The old man who could see the sky said to Zhang Zhong that this is just a dragon, and there are no other dragons.

Zhang Zhong didn't care about a few dragons, and countless small boats were set aside to pick up people who had drifted from the other two counties and neighboring states.

People living by the sea may be worse in other aspects. Swimming is absolutely no problem. Those who fish in the sea or those who usually live near the sea do not know how to swim. Four or five-year-old children dare to go into the water. Try to touch things.

Everyone knows what to do when big water comes. Even people with good water don't go swimming stupidly by themselves. They usually find something floating to hug them.

Ninghai and Huaqing counties have been informed that they have made wooden rafts and put the contents of the house on it, but the house has not been demolished, nor have they prepared so many ropes.

When the flood came, every family rowed a wooden raft to the state capital. This was their only hope.

"Father, mother, can our family survive? Why don't we go up to the mountain, where it is higher, and here it gets lower and lower."

An eight or nine-year-old boy, holding his three-year-old sister in his arms, wiped off the rain on the connection, holding a big leaf in one hand for his sister to protect his sister from the rain, facing two parents who were paddling a wooden raft. Said.

"Snails, there are dead people on the mountain. What if you run up to the mountain and come down later, and the new good official doesn't recognize us? Hold Beibei, let's go to the high official."

When Dad rowed the raft vigorously and endured the raindrops, the son said.

The mother also helped paddling, crying while paddling. The home is gone and the land is gone. I don’t know how to live in the future. The only thing I’m grateful for is that the news from the official is early and the wooden raft was returned. Nothing happened to the family.

The little boy nodded as if he didn't understand, and said to his three-year-old sister: "Babe, we will have good food in a while."

The three-year-old girl who was three years old still couldn't understand the adult's suffering. She reached out to touch the leaf that was blocking the rain, and her elder brother cried out, looking very happy.

After a while, the little girl was less excited, she squashed her mouth and shouted hungry, the boy asked for a bun, chewed it in his mouth, spit it out and squeezed it into the girl's mouth.

"Beibei, eat quickly. You won't be hungry after you eat. When you arrive at the place, there will be hot soup to drink."

The girl ate half a steamed bun, and finally she was full. She shrank into her brother’s arms and fell asleep. The boy thought about it and put away half of the steamed bun. This time she came out with food, but they were all raw. , There are only a few dried buns, it's better to leave it to my sister, who can eat them raw.

A family of four, riding on the wooden raft, drifted along the water in the direction of the state capital. It was drifting, and a big tree that had been washed down hit it obliquely.

The couple paddled for time and tried to avoid, but the place where the water surfaced was hidden, the underwater branch hit the side of the wooden raft. Accompanied by the sound of clicking, the hemp rope tied to the wooden raft could no longer bear it. With such a large force, it has been shortened by three in a row.

"His dad, you take the snails and go, I am holding Beibei to follow." When the woman saw that the wooden raft was cracked, she shouted to her husband, she was going to hug the little girl. The man's water quality is good. The snails are also good. If something goes wrong in the family to leave offspring, the boy and the baby are the offspring, and the woman is ready to give up.

"I can't throw my sister, I can tread on the water, mother, the three of us take turns stepping on the water and walk with the wood. You can't throw my sister, and you can't live without a mother." The boy understood what the mother meant. , Hugged her sister tightly and said nothing to her mother.

"Snails, it's useless. With such a large amount of water, if you can't turn around while holding the wood, you will be washed into the sea. If you walk with your father, you two can pass." The mother was also reluctant, but had to give up at this time. Up.

"Stop talking, stroke, it's not scattered yet, I hold it." At this time, the man climbed onto the wooden raft, grabbed the piece of wood with his hand, and had a foot between his feet, so that the raft did not completely disperse, but There was no impact from the water, and the squeezing of the wood made the man feel painful.

The woman nodded with tears, and said to the boy: "Put down Beibei and paddle with your mother. It's almost there."

The boy hesitated, took off his only trousers and was naked, put his sister on top of the trousers, and put the leaf on his sister’s body. Then he picked up the wood chip used by his father and worked hard on the other side. Land up.

The wooden platoon moved forward for another quarter of an hour. The man’s feet and legs had been rubbed and blood was leaked. When the nail of his left hand was accidentally squeezed by two pieces of wood, three nails fell, and the blood leaked. come out.

Just when the woman was desperate to grab her daughter and jump down, a few black spots suddenly appeared in the water in front of them. The black spots moved very fast and were accompanied by splashes.

While the woman was stunned, the black spots were already closer, and a closer look revealed that the heads of six people popped out of the water and sank from time to time. The splashes were also shot out when the six people were swimming.

The boy also saw it. He was stunned. He was still watery, able to tread water, but he could never swim so fast. The movements of the six people were almost the same. They seemed to be wearing black clothes and even their heads were covered. The head sinks and floats is a big distance.

When it is sinking, the head dives into the water. When it is floating, it swings the head from side to side. When there is no wave, it alternates forward with both hands. When it encounters a wave, it changes movement immediately. Both hands should be stretched forward, just crossing the wave.

Six people swam to the front of the wooden platoon at once, and one person took out a rope from the bag in his arms and said to the person on the wooden platoon: "Don't be afraid, we are the new governor, the guard of great officials. Respond everywhere, get up and stop lying on your stomach."

While the man was talking, six people surrounded the wooden raft, and one climbed up and began to tie the wood again. The man had no strength, lying on his back, and kept saying thank you.

The woman cried and hugged the girl, while the boy looked at the six people in admiration, and asked the person who was tied up with the rope: "What happened to you just now? You swim so fast?"

"I just used the most standard free swimming and butterfly swimming. The freestyle is fast, and the butterfly swims through the waves and saves effort. I usually practice it." This person was also easy to talk, and explained to the little boy as he tied up.

The boy doesn’t know how to swim. He only knows that the speed of six people is really not slow. Then he asked curiously: “Are you from the strong seedling team? I heard that 56 people have been very high a few days ago. I jumped off from a very tall boat, nothing happened. You can swim in the water for a few hours without fear of getting tired. Did you swim this way?"

"Little children are smart. We are members of the strong seedling team. Compared to swimming, no one can compare to us except for some local people here. The master is afraid of something wrong, so he sent us out. You guys It was the twelfth raft that was rescued.

Usually we have to use several standard swimming postures when training, but usually we don’t use them. Everyone has their own most comfortable movements, but today we can’t do it. It’s not the time to show the individual, we can only use the most standard posture, and take more effort. , The speed is the fastest. "

The movement of this person's hand was very swift, and only a piece of wood was left in just two sentences, and he was talking to the little boy while he was tied up.

The little boy looked at the six stern-faced people, and didn't feel scared at all. On the contrary, they were very calm. The cold and Jun expressions of the six people were very resolute at first sight, and it seemed that any difficulty could not hold them up.

"This elder brother, can I join the strong seedling team? I also want to be like you, so far, so fast to rush to rescue others, you are also wearing beautiful clothes."

The boy asked with a look of yearning.

The man from the seedling team tied the wood, buttoned it, and smiled at the little boy and said, "This is not so easy to enter. If you sign a death agreement, then you have to receive training. The pain is very human. You can imagine that sometimes you have the heart to die, but you can't die. You can come in. Then you must learn to read first. Are you literate?"

"Can't read?" The boy shook his head regretfully. He didn't expect these people not only to swim well, but they also knew how to read.

"Then study hard, first learn to read, learn to write, and then you can participate in training. After getting used to the hardship, you will become more powerful." This person encouraged the boy, and at the same time thought of his own training. I haven't finished training yet, it's not ordinary suffering.

"The big brother, are you the people who can endure hardship the most?"

"This... We are far behind two people. If those two people fell into the water in the place just now, there is no need to save them. They can go back easily. If they want, they can stay a little longer. God, everything you eat can be solved."

The guard thought of the little son and the little lady. He was the one who accompanied the two people into the old man's house. Thinking of the two little ancestors' reactions and fierceness, he couldn't help but shudder.

The boy nodded and said nothing.
