During the following period, Lu Yuan was basically awakened by nightmares.

Every time he dreams, he is in a huge whirlpool, being pushed around by the water, but he is powerless to stop it. He holds a dimensional crystal necklace in his hand, but it is of no use.

That day, Lu Yuan woke up from his dream again.

He was covered in sweat, but still clutched the dimensional crystal necklace in his hand.

I looked down at the dimensional crystal necklace, but there was still no reaction.

His heart sank; he had once held great hope for the dimensional crystal.

However, it seems that almost two months have passed since it was fed, and the Dimensional Crystal still hasn't shown any signs of life.

If this continues, when the flood completely destroys their houses, they will have to rely on their own methods to save themselves.

Lu Yuan sat on the edge of the bed, panting heavily.

Xiao Shan sensed that Lu Yuan had woken up, so she rubbed her eyes and saw Lu Yuan sitting at the head of the bed, and asked him softly.

"What's wrong? Did you dream again?"

Lu Yuan nodded and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Hmm, I can't sleep. You go back to sleep, I'm going out to rest for a while."

After saying that, Lu Yuan got up and left the room.

Lu Yuan took the oxygen cylinder from the bedside and went outside, where he sat on the flower bed and quietly inhaled the oxygen.

Suddenly he felt that his pants were wet, so he quickly got up and touched them.

My pants were already soaked, and a large puddle of water had appeared on the edge of the flower bed sometime during the night.

Lu Yuan looked up.

"Drip," another drop of water landed on his head, and Lu Yuan immediately turned his head away and looked up.

There were watermarks on the ceiling that had appeared at some point.

Lu Yuan's heart jolted, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.

He quickly looked around and saw that a puddle of water had appeared on the ground sometime during the night.

Although this puddle of water is not very large, there are quite a few puddles like this in the vicinity.

So he quickly grabbed a flashlight, moved a ladder, and went up to the top of the ceiling.

Small water droplets condensed on the ceiling and were dripping down.

It dripped softly, not very frequently, but it kept dripping.

Lu Yuan looked at the water stains on the ground and immediately realized that there might be a seepage point above.

So he quickly returned to his room, where his family members seemed to still be asleep.

They were all awakened by Lu Yuan's knock on the door.

When Lu's father rubbed his eyes and saw that it was Lu Yuan, a look of confusion flashed across his face.

"Why are you in such a panic? What happened this time?"

Lu Yuan pointed to the direction above his head.

"It's leaking!"

These words were like a bucket of cold water, waking everyone up.

Everyone hurriedly put on their clothes and ran outside as fast as they could.

Where there was a puddle of water, the ground that was originally dry had somehow appeared.

Because they use terrazzo flooring, it has a relatively strong water absorption capacity.

However, the water on the floor can no longer be absorbed slowly, forming thin layers of water.

"Damn it, I thought this place could hold out for a while, but I didn't expect it to start leaking so quickly!"

"What are you waiting for? Go and deal with it!"

So the family ran out of the room and found mops and other things to clean up the water on the floor.

Then they brought over a ladder and began searching for the source of the water above the ceiling.

However, after searching for a long time, they still couldn't find it. The last remaining location was right above their heads.

That place was the most difficult to climb, and also the most secure part of the house.

Their internal protective layer is like an eggshell; this arched structure is one of the best construction methods to ensure the sturdiness of the house.

Lu Yuan immediately sighed.

"It seems the leak is coming from there. I'll go up and take a look!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan climbed up the ladder.

Just as Lu Yuan reached the top.

Suddenly, a sound like an eggshell cracking came from above.

Then, one cement slab after another fell down.

The family members scattered in panic, but thankfully no one was injured.

Before long, a rushing sound of water poured onto the ground.

The room, which had been clean, suddenly became a mess.

The ground was covered with broken concrete and various kinds of gravel.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan's heart sank completely. He never expected that his proud house would be so vulnerable.

"Quickly find a bucket to catch the water, and also a water pump!"

So the family members all started getting busy.

They brought brooms, mops, various buckets, as well as water pumps and hoses.

In an instant, everyone scrambled to deal with the debris that was constantly tilting downwards.

Lu Yuan climbed down the ladder and looked at the increasingly large hole above, feeling utterly helpless.

After pondering for a long time, he finally came up with an idea.

"I'll go find some tools!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan ran straight towards the basement.

A short while later, Lu Yuan brought an electric drill from the basement.

When the family members saw the electric drill, they all showed a look of shock on their faces.

What are you trying to do?

"We made a hole in the top to let the water flow down, which would reduce the pressure!"

Lu Yuan was about to climb up the ladder while carrying an electric drill when his father heard this and immediately stepped forward to stop him.

"Are you crazy? This ceiling isn't very stable to begin with. If you drill another hole now, the crack will only get bigger!"

Lu Yuan turned around and glanced at his father.

"But if we don't drill a hole in the top to let the water flow down, the water pressure will crush all the protective panels above!"

After saying that, Lu Yuan ignored everything and dragged the electric drill to the top.

With a piercing sound, water continued to flow down the electric drill.

Lu Yuan didn't care about anything else and let the stones keep hitting him.

Finally, Lu Yuan felt that the space above the drill suddenly became empty.

Then, with a hissing sound, water continued to pour down.

"water pipe!"

Lu's father, who had been prepared in advance, quickly asked the water pipe to be handed over.

Lu Yuan inserted the water pipe above the hole that had already been drilled.

With this water pipe output, the water pressure instantly decreased significantly.

The amount of rubble on the roof began to decrease slowly.
