The people of Lianzhou are grateful to sit in the cabin. It feels good to be alive, and the people on the boat are also happy for them. They save people by themselves, and those who save them will also be satisfied.
An old man who had just been picked up from the water vomited half of his stomach. After he was able to speak, he kowtows to the person who was tied up with the rope and then he asked: "Are you from the state capital? Look. The clothes I wear look like."
"We are from the Luzhou government. We know that we are going to send a lot of water. We come here in advance and wait. We can't control it. But anyone who rushes to the sea can be saved, as much as we can."
The rescuer helped the old man up, and someone next to him brought steaming soup on the table in the cabin. It was actually the simplest egg dumpling soup, with a little egg flower, a few vegetable leaves, and some ginger. Foam and oil slick, everything else is gone.
But this kind of soup is also very precious at this time, mainly because it is hot. The old man took a sip while breathing, chewing Jiang Mozi in his mouth, and asked the person who rescued him: "How about your state? Yes? Send the ship over to save us, your state is not afraid of the dead?"
"I don’t know what’s going on now. We haven’t sent any water when we came out, but don’t worry. There are eight such big boats there. Our Master Governor also made preparations in advance. I think we won’t die a few people, my husband, don’t you know? Is it going to send water?"
The savior explained a couple of sentences there. In fact, he was also worried, but after the order came down, he had to leave and wait here.
The old man nodded, shook his head again, and said: "That's your governor's history. If you can think about it in advance, it won't work here. No one cares. I know I'm going to send water, and I know that the Sea Dragon King is also angry, but What can I do as an old man? I can't run if I want to run.
How far can you go in a few days? Besides, it was raining heavily outside, so I had to make a raft in advance and move some things on it. When the flood came, I called a few people from the neighbor’s house to the raft together. As a result, when a storm came down, I just After being beaten down, the people on the raft didn't know what happened.
I usually fish in this sea. The fishing boat is used by other neighbors. In fact, the boat at this time is not as good as a raft. I had long known that I tied myself with a rope. At that time, I was afraid that the raft would overturn, so I just sat on it. , You must look for it here, there are still living people. "
As the old man said, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, then lowered his head and drank the soup. The rescuer was also very uncomfortable, and also very helpless. He knew that his water quality was not good. If it could be comparable to the cuntsman. The dozens of escorts may be able to save more people.
Seeing that the old man was drinking the soup, he stood up and said to the old man: "Lord Zhang stayed first. I will continue to go out and see if anyone has the strength to climb up. Lao Zhang rest assured, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to do it. ."
"Go, you can send people to this cabin at that time, even if they are breathless, send them to show me, maybe it will be rescued." The old man barely squeezed a smile on his face full of vicissitudes.
Su Maozhou also repeated what seemed to be the same situation. Many people were rushed over, and then they were rescued. Despite the fact that these ten ships were not many, many people were left with their lives.
When the heavy rain fell in the middle of the night, a larger mountain torrent washed down. This time it was not only water, but also some dirt and a large number of uprooted trees, swirling in the water towards the wooden row. Composed of positions.
Zhang Zhong, who had been prepared for a long time, saw that the water was big, and immediately let the people in front of him retreat to the middle of the battlefield, and emptied the woods in front for the trees to collide. The big boat also ran to the front two wings by the depth of the water. , In case the front wooden raft can't bear it, it needs to be blocked by the hull.
The four people Liu Shaoqing didn’t know what was going on. They were eating fruit there. The raw noodles and rice were eaten by the servants. This kind of food was hard to swallow in the mouth, but the servants did not dare to say anything. , I’m hungry if I don’t eat, I can only endure a little bit to eat.
When the first big tree that followed the stream hit this small piece of wooden raft, Liu Shaoqing and others finally understood why the six people had that kind of smile in the evening, and it was not safe in front of it.
Three wooden rafts were previously damaged by wood. Just not long after the repair was completed, five more were broken. This small piece of ground was also knocked back by the trees and hit the large ground behind. After a while, Liu Shaoqing opposed The next person yelled: "Don't eat first, hurry up and fix the wooden raft, hurry up."
Fan Jianxi also shouted "Hurry up and paddle behind the big wooden line. It's not possible in front of you. Hurry up."
The subordinate stroked a few times, shook his head helplessly, and said to Fan Jianxi: "I can't stroke, I'm stuck. Our wooden raft is inserted into their wooden raft, unless it is pulled out first."
"Then hurry up, what are you waiting for?" Jiang Huanshi shouted anxiously.
"It's too late." As soon as the servants finished saying these four words, the wooden raft shook again, and two more trees hit the wooden raft. Three people came down from one tree, and three jumped to the wooden raft. Go up, look around, thank Jiang Huanshi and others.
Then he ran to the more wooden platoons. There were a lot of lights on there. Watching the three people running away, Cao Herui spat out bloody spit and cursed: "They must know this, but Without telling us, everyone withdrew to the back, let the front come out, and brought me some clean water. Is there any medicine? I bit my tongue."
The three who jumped from the tree ran all the way to Zhang Zhong's side, saw many people here, laughed happily, hid in the shed, and asked: "Which one is the best official? We? Kowtowing to the great official first. It's too powerful. There is a piece of land here. The three of our brothers thought they would ride directly into the sea on a tree."
"How can a good official wait for you to kowtow and drink the soup first, or you will be in trouble if you get sick." A local citizen came over and brought the wooden bowl in his hand to three people. There was only one bowl, one big one. The bowl can hold the usual five small bowls.
The three of them were indeed hungry, tired, afraid and cold. They lowered their heads and took a sip. When their stomachs warmed up, one of them pointed to the way when they came and asked, "Will the great official be there? Just now? The three of us came from there."
"That's the place where the bad officials are. I thought I wouldn't be overturned by the waves when I ran ahead. They hit a tree, right? Well, they have food and money, but they don't want to take it out. See if they hit it again. Come? Come over and that thing won't belong to them."
This common people hated Liu Shaoqing's four people, and even their family members and subordinates also hated them. In the past, the family members and subordinates of these four people often went outside to buy things without paying for them. They walked and hit people and beat others. Now Seeing them suffer over there, it is indescribably happy.
The three of them froze for a moment, and the one who had just spoken regretfully said, "I would not thank them if I knew it. Anyway, I can hit this side. Brothers, drink quickly. You can't just wait to be rescued. The three of us still have Strength, help the great officials with some work for a while."
The two younger brothers nodded at the same time and drank regardless of the heat. The three of them looked very optimistic, being washed by the flood, riding a tree, able to run and jump.
They are stable. Liu Shaoqing can’t stand it a little bit. People are working as fast as they can. But the upper reaches keep rushing down, one by one, making the place in front of them unable to stay at all, occasionally. Someone will come down from the tree, some are riding, some are hugging.
Everyone who came up was very happy. Borrowing the light, they looked at the ground connected by wooden rows and ran towards the crowded side.
Cao Herui sat on the wooden raft and looked at the front as if another black figure rushed over. He had no intention of avoiding it. After shaking for a while, he said to the three people next to him: "Why don't we go over here? , Their lives are gone, and if they need any money, they will give it to them if they want it."
The other three people didn’t have the mind to care about any money. They wanted to pass it a long time ago, but they were afraid of losing face. Someone suggested it. That’s easy to say. Liu Shaoqing gritted his teeth. , Give it to him, he is sucking blood."
The four people agreed, and brought their family members and subordinates, as well as those supplies and money, to the large wooden row. They heard the constant crashing behind them, and they were afraid.
When the four people found Zhang Zhong, Zhang Zhong had just slept for half an hour, his eyes were red and swollen, and his complexion was haggard. This is a good match for what he usually eats, otherwise he would be tired and get down.
"My lord, we thought about it, and it's better to do what you said, my lord, everything is here, you can take it all." Liu Shaoqing said this to Zhang Zhong very unwillingly.
Zhang Zhong stared, "Who made you come up? You have wooden rafts, but you still come up and squeeze? Everyone counts. One is one. The one who comes up pays fifty pennies. Your things and Money is just for you to make things."
"Ah? Ten coins per person? More than sixty people in my family are more than 3000 coins? My lord, we are out of money." Liu Shaoqing didn't expect Zhang Zhong to be so cruel, and said aggrievedly there.
"If you don't have money, write a note, owe it first, then pay it back slowly, do you not write it?" Zhang Zhong asked with a calm face.
"Write, if you ask me to write, then write." Cao Herui resignedly said next to him. It is better to owe money than to be thrown away. It is important to live.
The other three people didn't want to resist anymore, and followed Zhang Zhong to a shed, where someone had already researched ink, and the pen and paper were also ready, just waiting for them to write.
With blood in their hearts, the four people wrote this IOU with trembling hands.
After finishing writing, Cao Herui asked Zhang Zhong: "My lord, everything is here, can we eat?"
"What are you going to eat? It's not time to eat yet. Wait, let's call you when it's time." Zhang Zhong dropped his words and began to walk in the crowd again.
