One year brought a great drought, the next year floods, and then, in a blink, a plague.
The Xu family fled from the north to the south, and then from the south back to the north.
Before...
The original villages, forests and vast tracts of land turned into vast oceans in an instant.
Xu Ning was distracted for a moment, then turned his attention back to the dilemma before him.
Seawater was pouring into the tunnel.
The triangle was still at a high point, and the seawater flowed back in and then flowed down the slope.
After about an hour, the water flow basically stopped.
Xu Ning checked with the surveillance camera and found that the sea water outside was no longer churning. The sea water had fallen back to the middle of the cliff, and the corners of several high roofs in Xianyu Village had been exposed.
"Daya, what's going on outside?" Old Mrs. Xu asked in a low voice. Cui Yong had actually heard it, but he pretended not to hear it.
"Dad, Master, let's go out and take a look. It seems that everything is fine." After hearing what Xu Ning said, Old Mrs. Xu felt relieved.
"Boss, you and Master Cui go out and take a look. Daya, change your clothes first and then go out with your aunt." Xu Ning's clothes were already wet because he was squatting at the lower part of the triangle.
"Why!"
Cui Yong and Xu Da moved the rocks away and found that the stone house was soaked through. The door of the room was half knocked down by the waves and was leaning crookedly against the big rock at the door.
Cui Yong pushed the door with a little force and it fell apart.
Xu Ning quickly changed his clothes and came out, only to find that the stone at the door had also been moved away.
Cui Yong and Xu Da were still piecing together wooden boards, planning to make a simple boat to go nearby and see what was going on.
Xu Ning looked at the vast expanse of land in front of him, his expression dazed for a moment.
It turns out that in front of nature, human beings are like tiny ants.
"Help, help! Is there anyone? Help!" A sudden cry for help brought Xu Ning back to his senses.
Xu Yuan had already helped carry the remaining wooden boards over. Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Xu Ning secretly placed a medium-sized fishing boat in an empty spot on the other side.
"Dad! Master, there is a boat here!" Xu Ning shouted and called people over!
"It really is a boat! It's big enough! It seems to have been washed over by the waves." Xu Da immediately started to pull it and poured some water into the boat.
Cui Yong wanted to pretend he didn't see it, but he felt a pain in his eyes.
"You stay here and don't move. Let's go." Xu Da and Cui Yong boarded the boat one after another. Xu Ning also obeyed. They pulled Xu Ning into the passage and called everyone out.
Someone might come here later, and the passage is not suitable for being seen, so we have to clean it up quickly.
"Daya, what's going on outside?" Xu Ning entered the stone house. Old Mrs. Xu had already changed her clothes and was being helped out by Zhang.
Following behind were the Grand Minister of Agriculture and Old Man Xu, and behind them were Xu An and Xu Feng, who were dragging things.
Xu Yuan quickly stepped forward to help take it. Seeing this, Xu An went back into the passage and brought out a clean quilt and other things.
When Xu Da and Cui Yong came back, the stone house had been tidied up except for the door which was still lying on the side (it had been put together by Xu Yuan and Xu An but had not been installed yet).
The wet clothes and quilts have been hung out to dry, the stove in the house has been lit, and the porridge in the pot looks almost ready.
"You're back. How's the situation outside?" Zhang came over with hot tea. Xu Da and Cui Yong immediately took it and took a few sips.
"It's not good, it's all flooded, and there are people on the roofs of the town!" Xu Da exhaled a breath of hot air and couldn't help shivering a few times. Most of his body was wet, and Cui Yong was almost the same.
"Stop asking questions and change your clothes and warm yourself by the fire first. Otherwise you'll get sick!" Their spare clothes had been prepared in the house. Xu Da and Cui Yong quickly went into the corridor to change their clothes, and only then did they feel warm by the fire.
"However, everyone in the village is fine. They are all in the cave on the other side. They have food and water, so there is no big problem for the time being."
"Where is the person who shouted for help just now? Where did he go?" Xu Ning asked.
