The chaotic scene was made even more chaotic by the loud thunder.
Seeing that the remaining members were frightened by the thunder and looked hesitant, the team leader almost died of anger.
He quickly gave his eldest son a look, and after making sure that he understood, he yelled at the top of his lungs.
"Why are you all standing there? Hurry up!!!"
This penetrating roar finally calmed the chaotic crowd.
Led by the team leader's son, the hesitant members rushed into the rain.
Some women wearing straw raincoats followed them because they were worried about their men.
The women who were not wearing straw raincoats did not care whether they would get wet. Those who were holding their children held their children, and those who were holding their children held their children's hands, and they also rushed into the rain.
The members who had just gathered in large numbers scattered in the blink of an eye.
Shu Miao stared blankly in the direction where the members left, and the bad premonition in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Then I couldn't help but follow them and rushed out, wanting to see where they were going and how they were going to rescue the people.
But she was unfortunately tripped by the overly wide straw raincoat from time to time, which really affected her speed and she soon couldn't keep up with the pace of the main group.
By the time she completely lost track of the last group of members, she was already not far from home.
Shu Miao, standing in the rain, stared at the direction they left, and finally had to give up the idea of following them to check the situation.
Just thinking about the flood, I couldn't help but look at the riverbank.
"Hiss~" But when she looked closely, she took a breath of cold air.
I saw that the vast river beaches that used to be there were now occupied by the surging river water.
Because the rice fields on the other side of the river are lower than those on this side, at this moment, the long strips of rice fields that have been reclaimed along the river are about to be submerged by the river water.
It has been raining for less than two hours since it started.
What will happen if this continues for another two hours?
And just by looking at the water level in the river, you can probably tell that the large sweet potato field at the end of the stream must have been flooded at this moment!
So the members were in such a hurry to dredge the original river channel?
Or go and rescue the sweet potato field?
In fact, ever since He Sheng started talking to the captain, she had been squeezed into the outermost circle.
In the end, all we could hear was some incoherent shouting from the group, and everyone picked up their weapons and ran out.
Just thinking about what someone said before that the captain sent people upstream, combined with He Sheng's embarrassed appearance, she had a preliminary guess in her mind.
It’s just that she is not quite sure about the danger of this flood, so she thinks she still needs to ask the aunt for confirmation.
She turned around and hurried home. The moment she opened the door, she was shocked to find that the water in the yard was above her ankles.
I secretly complained about Zili, the lazy guy, who didn't even know to clear the drain at home.
But he still put down the backpack, carefully moved the accumulated debris away from the drain, and then cleared it with a wooden stick.
The water in the yard had an outlet and soon flowed into the drain.
Shu Miao then waded through the yard. Who would have thought that when he arrived at the main hall, he would see that the tall altar cabinet was piled with sacks of all sizes.
Before she could react to what was happening, she turned her head and saw a mother and son in the inner room, grabbing a thick hemp rope and struggling to hang a sack on the roof.
Although she didn't know why the mother and daughter did this, she subconsciously went up to help.
Just as she looked up, her eyes widened in shock, because there was a row of big sacks hanging on the beams!
If she hadn't been mentally prepared, the sight of these sacks, each as tall as a person, would have almost reminded her of a crime scene...
After tying the hemp rope, Li Qiao collapsed on the bench exhausted, gasping for breath.
Zi Lize blew on his palm with tears in his eyes. Shu Miao glanced at him and saw several blisters on his hands.
He also knew that the two of them were injured and tired and definitely didn't want to talk, so he turned around and went to the kitchen to serve them two bowls of ginger soup.
Li Qiao took the bowl, drank the ginger soup and ginger powder in one gulp, and handed it to Shu Miao who was standing by.
She met a pair of sparkling eyes directly, and anyone could see that she had something to say.
He coughed dryly twice, feeling a little uncomfortable, and glanced at her unhappily.
"If you have any questions, please ask them now. We haven't packed up all the things yet, so we have to hurry."
In fact, apart from being confused at the beginning, Shu Miao had a rough idea of the crisis he might face next after seeing that all the important objects in the house were placed high up.
But she still wanted to ask something more specific, in case when the time came to evacuate, she would be confused and not know where to run.
"Is there a problem upstream?" Shu Miao didn't keep the question in suspense and asked his guess decisively.
Now it was Li Qiao's turn to be surprised. "Huh? You know this?"
Shu Miao pursed her lips and told him exactly what He Sheng had said to her, as well as the bits and pieces of information she had learned.
As she expressed all the speculations in her mind, Zili was so surprised that he forgot the pain in his palm and came over nervously.
Although Li Qiao had long known that this child had been exceptionally smart since she became enlightened, she had never imagined that she could be so meticulous.
Even some points that she didn't notice were easily connected by her.
She felt relieved but also a little sad.
I thought, could it be that the brains of this generation of Shu people are all in this child?
If it were in the past, she could still say shamelessly that her eldest son was not only a good student, but also had a very smart brain.
Until he was unable to face up to his mistakes and still treated Shu Miao coldly after learning the whole story, she knew that her eldest son would definitely suffer a great loss in the future when he was in society!
Alas~
Forget it, forget it, there is no point in thinking too much.
Li Qiao had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but her face remained calm.
"Since you all know what you should know and what you shouldn't know.
Then when I order you around, I won't tolerate any complaints, understand?"
Zili, who had just been harshly ordered around, instantly showed a look of retreat on his face.
Shu Miao didn't think there was anything wrong and agreed without hesitation.
Seeing the huge gap between the two children, Li Qiao couldn't help but glared at her son.
"A brother should act like a brother. Hiding behind your sister and being lazy every day, how can you not be lazy to death!"
Since you like to be lazy so much, I have to teach you a lesson!
"If the water comes up, you'll have to take care of the pigs. If the pigs can't walk, you'll have to carry them up the mountain even if you have to carry them!"
The moment Zili's mother opened her mouth, he knew that something bad was going to happen. But before he could express his opinion, his punishment came down so gorgeously from the sky.
His eyes went dark and he almost fell down. The black pig weighed at least 70 kilograms. How could he carry it?
