The river channel downstream has dried up at this time, and all you can see is a large area of silt.
It's quite dirty. Only such an ignorant child would be so rash as to appear here.
Fortunately, the river was blocked, otherwise, for such a young child who couldn't swim, one would never imagine what would have happened to him.
The child was only two or three years old. Half of his body was stuck in the mud and he couldn't get out. He was crying breathlessly.
When she saw Zhao Wei coming, she cried even louder.
Zhao Wei was also very anxious. He was most afraid of crying, no matter who it came from.
"Xiaohua, don't be afraid, uncle is here to save you!"
While Zhao Wei was comforting the people, he carefully moved forward by chewing the mud.
There are gravels and some sharp branches here. If you step on them rashly, you may hurt the soles of your feet.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he walked down the mud, he felt the water flow in the river gradually increasing.
Subconsciously, I looked at the dam blocking the river.
A large stream of water gushed out from a crack.
Someone, regardless of his life or death, broke through the dam in advance.
"Damn bastard!"
While Zhao Wei was cursing the other party, Yunxiu naturally noticed this in the river.
So he shouted loudly: "Which bastard did this? Do you want to kill Zhao Wei?"
Some people cried out in innocence: "It wasn't me, I was standing here without moving!"
Someone else said impatiently: "This dam was built temporarily and is not strong to begin with. It will surely collapse soon after we do this. Don't blame others for everything."
…
Yunxiu calmed down and stared at them intently: "No matter if it was man-made or not, now, for the safety of everyone, all of you should leave this dam and go ashore!"
She didn't need to say this. They had long since stopped daring to stay here. If the dam really broke, it would be fatal.
Yunxiu waited until everyone swam to the shore, then she followed behind them and looked at everyone who had entered the water again.
She was sure that someone had deliberately moved the pickaxe when Zhao Wei went downstream.
The leaking place was where Zhao Wei left before. There was an iron pickaxe inserted there. All he needed to do was pry it hard to drain the water from the dam.
Unfortunately, he was forced to stop because he had to save the children.
The pickaxe had been stuck there firmly, but now it is gone.
What does this indicate?
…
At this time, from the fields came Grandma Wang's heart-wrenching cries.
"Nannan, has anyone seen my Nannan?"
"Hua'er... my dear, where have you been? Come out quickly!"
…
Grandma Wang walked with a slight limp. She was a woman with bound feet, so she was not very efficient at work. She was already a little frantic in her anxious search for someone.
This woman had a bad fate. Her husband died early and she only had one son, who was a fool.
The daughter-in-law felt uneasy taking care of such a fool, so she ran away into the mountains with someone two years ago.
Therefore, in this generation of the Wang family, there is only one granddaughter, Wang Nannan, who is treasured almost as if she were the apple of their eye.
Today we are here to save the crops, and everyone is busy draining the fields and repairing the canals. The little girl should have stayed in the fields, a safer place, and played by herself.
Unexpectedly, after she was busy for a while, when she turned around, the doll was gone.
When everyone heard this, they were naturally very worried and started looking for people together, and soon they arrived at the river.
When Yunxiu saw Grandma Wang, she immediately realized what had happened and told her about little Nannan.
The old man was so frightened that he kept stamping his feet.
"Oh my God, this place is so far away from down there. How could such a small kid like her run there in the blink of an eye?"
Yunxiu just felt depressed.
Is there any need to think about it? Someone must have taken the child away on purpose.
His heart is so vicious that it makes people shudder.
In order to deal with Zhao Wei, he resorted to all kinds of shady tricks.
While everyone was watching the dam about to be destroyed, the person hiding on the opposite hill couldn't help but smile with success.
"Haha... Wang Hu did a great job. He sneaked into Yushudun and successfully dragged Zhao downstream."
"Wait and see how he escapes from this torrential flood!"
"Hiss... look... it's leaking, the rocks are all collapsed. Oh my god, it was just a blockage for a while, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful."
They were busy here early in the night. The field must be destroyed, and Zhao Wei must also be destroyed.
It's not that they have to kill him. As long as he is in office, they will keep making trouble and will not stop until he is removed from office.
At this time, the river water finally poured down as they wished. The louder the villagers of Yushudun shouted, the more eagerly they waited for the result.
…
Of course, Wang Hu also felt the same as them.
He took time out today specifically to visit his relatives.
Next to him, there were two strong young men who couldn't bear it and said, "Brother Hu, isn't it too immoral for us to do this?"
"Yeah, that child is quite innocent..."
Wang Hu glanced at them coldly and said, "Tsk, you are too soft-hearted. No wonder you have been so miserable all your life. You work hard all year round but can't even eat two taels of meat!"
If a man does not work for his own benefit, he will be punished by heaven and earth.
If you want to eat meat, you have to sit in a high position and have the right to speak, then you can have hope!
The two of them looked at each other, then shut their mouths and said nothing more.
The thing has been done, and they can no longer regret it.
But I still prayed in my heart that Zhao Wei could bring the person out safely.
well……
…
Downstream to Hanoi.
Zhao Wei’s hand was almost reaching Xiaohua’s clothes.
However, time is running out.
The roar of the water has reached my ears.
If he stayed any longer, there was a high possibility that he would be swept into the current along with the child.
The water now is turbid and mixed with mud and sand, just like a flood.
Being caught in such muddy water and with many stones in the river, you could die if you are not careful.
In the face of the mighty power of nature, human power is insignificant.
But Zhao Wei still did not give up the child.
This was not the first time he faced such huge waves.
In my previous life, I was involved in flood rescue missions, so I knew what to do to save my life in such a current.
So, under the stares of countless eyes on the shore, Zhao Wei and the child were swept away by the flood.
In just a blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared in the torrent, and even the edges of their clothes could not be seen.
