Chapter 92 Mudslide

"Feng...Brother Feng!"

Qi Xiaojie ran up to Ye Feng, panting heavily, and pointed behind him...

"Water...water...water..."

Ye Feng frowned. He had almost forgotten that this kid stuttered, and when trouble arose, his speech became even more slurred…

"This is so worrying... Has the water level risen?!"

"Um!"

Qi Xiaojie nodded repeatedly…

"The...upstream...collapsed!"

"What!?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Feng immediately recalled the scene he had witnessed in the tree that morning…

At that time, much of the rest of the hillside was flooded.

These hillsides are mostly composed of loose soil, which has been soaked by river water and irrigated by rainwater for a long time...

The foundation of the hillside will inevitably be damaged, the soil will crumble easily, and disintegration is only a matter of time...

However, once a large-scale breach occurs, mud enters the river, and the water level will immediately rise sharply.

If there are many collapsed slopes, then after so much soil and rainwater mix, it is very likely that it will no longer be water...

Instead, it's a diluted version of... mudslide...

This thing is far more dangerous than a flood; being swept into a river might offer a glimmer of hope for survival…

However, if you are swallowed by a mudslide, the sticky and heavy mud will instantly cover your whole body, making it extremely difficult to even get up.

By then, they will all be doomed...

"Damn! How many have collapsed?!"

Ye Feng cursed angrily…

Qi Xiaojie, with a bewildered expression, tried his best to increase his speaking speed...

"Several...several...several...have fallen...fallen apart. Everywhere...is...mud!"

Hearing this, Ye Feng knew that the formation of a mudslide was not far off.

No wonder the splashing sound around us kept getting quieter while we were building the raft; it turns out a lot of mud had flowed into the river…

He originally planned to wait for the water to rise and then take a raft to the other side of the hill, but now it seems he'll have to change his plans again…

After thinking it over, he quickly began to direct everyone...

"Stop what you're doing! Quickly carry the raft and head towards the river where we killed the crocodiles! As fast as you can! Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!"

Everyone was momentarily stunned by Ye Feng's almost roaring voice...

In their memory, they had never seen Ye Feng so panicked, as if facing a formidable enemy...

At that moment, everyone immediately realized the seriousness of the problem…

"What are you standing there for?! Hurry up!"

Fu Changxiong was the first to come to his senses and quickly grabbed a corner of the raft.

The others quickly grabbed the other triangles as well…

With everyone pulling together, the raft was finally lifted and hoisted onto the shoulders of the four men…

Fortunately, they had foam backpacks as padding, and the raft's shape made it easier to carry; otherwise, the weight of over a thousand pounds on their shoulders would definitely have been unbearable...

The two women's legs trembled as they were pressed down, but they gritted their teeth and persevered...

Ye Feng encouraged the two women, saying:

"You must hold on! Remember! Get to the river as fast as you can right now."

If we're late, none of us will be able to leave!

Liu Sisi's features were contorted, as if she were straining her entire body. She gritted her teeth and asked, word by word:

"Brother Feng, what... exactly... happened?"

"Don't ask! A mudslide is coming! Just remember to move the raft to the riverbank as quickly as possible and wait for me there!"

Hearing this, everyone was somewhat confused... Fu Changxiong asked again:

Aren't you coming with us?!

Ye Feng looked at the edge of the hillside and shook his head…

"I can't leave yet. I need to figure out where this mudslide is going."

Otherwise, even if we escape, we're very likely to run into it again. Only I can do this job!

Don't worry, I'm fine. You guys go now!

Seeing that Ye Feng had said so, the group wasted no more time and hurried to the riverbank as quickly as possible...

During the morning's reconnaissance, Ye Feng discovered that the water level in that area was relatively calm and the rate of rise was slow, and it was located on the back side of the hillside...

Therefore, going out from there is the best escape route...

After everyone left, Ye Feng immediately ran towards the edge of the hillside...

Before he even arrived at the destination, he saw that the giant eucalyptus tree he had climbed that morning was now submerged up to its roots...

That was definitely not a good climb, so he had no choice but to find another tree with a better view and immediately climb it...

Upon reaching the summit, he was once again deeply shocked by nature's power to create disasters…

The river is now at least a quarter wider than it was in the morning…

The river was filled with various fallen trees, submerged and drifting slowly downstream with the current…

The previously muddy river water, after being inundated with a large amount of mud, has now turned a yellowish-brown color.

Upon closer inspection, one can faintly see... many mud particles and clumps of mud in the water...

Ye Feng knew very well that this meant the river was gradually being encroached upon by the soil.

If other slopes continue to collapse, the amount of mud in the water will only increase...

Then, the real mudslide will arrive...

Ye Feng looked around and noticed that all the surrounding hillsides were gradually being split apart by the rain...

One by one, the large trees, having lost the support of the soil, fell into the water, making a loud "thump" sound as they fell.

The hillside to his left had completely disappeared by now…

He clearly remembered that it was still there that morning…

And that hillside is considerably higher than his...

It was obvious that the rainwater had caused it to split and collapse...

After observing for about ten minutes, Ye Feng finally found a river with a relatively safe flow...

Then, he slowly climbed down the tree...

But before he could even climb two steps, a small hillside to his left suddenly collapsed…

"Thump!"

An unprecedentedly loud splash immediately reached Ye Feng's ears...

He glanced to the side and saw that at the edge of the hillside, a lot of soil and trees were falling or collapsing at a visible speed…

The hillside looked as if countless ants were rapidly gnawing at it, like a cone-shaped cake having a corner scooped away in an instant…

"Thump! Click!"

The sounds of splashing water and breaking trees echoed continuously, and the entire hillside seemed to be seeping water...

The mountain... is about to collapse...

And naturally, the first thing to be affected and suffer the most was Ye Feng's hillside...

Seeing this terrifying scene, Ye Feng stared wide-eyed, gritted his teeth, and stared at the dark, gloomy clouds in the sky…

I couldn't help but blurt out a phrase from the national essence...

"Fuck you!"

After he finished cursing, he quickly climbed down as fast as he could…

Before he had even fully landed, when he was still four or five meters above the ground, he jumped off...

Ignoring the soreness in his feet, he mustered all his strength and sprinted backward at full speed...
