Chapter 36: Beep! Water level warning!
Xu Xinxin took some time to go to the river and take a look. The river water was originally more than two meters away from the fence, but now it is less than half a meter away from the fence.
The sky was dark and gloomy, and the rain kept falling without stopping.
After dinner, Xu Xinxin went to the river again to take a look. The river was about to submerge the fence of her plot No. 333.
You know, this piece of land, near the water, is a slope. She hasn't measured the vertical distance, but it's about one or two meters.
The water surface of the river is so wide...
Xu Xinxin looked at Huanhe worriedly, then walked back to the room with a gloomy face.
Just as I returned to the room, the roadside radio sounded again in the heavy rain.
“Beep beep beep… On March 19, 2055, the ‘Huangu Dam’ upstream of the Huanhe River… exceeded the warning line.
Please... Jiangcheng residents... adults, go... to participate in flood prevention work! "
“Beep, beep, beep…the water level has exceeded the warning line!”
"Please all residents... go to the Huangu Dam..."
This time the broadcast was different from previous ones. Not only was it repeated, but it was also interspersed with "beep beep beep" warning sounds.
Even if people can't hear exactly what's being said on the radio, they can still understand the urgency of the situation.
How come the water level suddenly exceeded the warning line?
Xu Xinxin suspected that she had misheard.
In the past, they would be notified to go to the dam to participate in flood prevention work before the water level reached the warning value.
Was it because the rain was too heavy today, or was there something wrong with the radio, and she missed the previous broadcast?
Hearing the "beep beep beep" warning sound, Xu Xinxin became a little anxious.
She looked at the time. It was already 8 o'clock in the evening and the bus had stopped running long ago, so she definitely couldn't get on the bus.
But……
She looked at the rain outside again. It was still pouring down heavily and fast.
No, she couldn't stay at home and wait for dawn.
Besides, the bus driver might have gone to prevent floods, so it’s not certain whether he will be able to go to work on time tomorrow.
The flood prevention work of the dam cannot be delayed.
If everyone was like her, thinking “I can’t get there now, let’s go tomorrow”, then the dam would be empty.
She said she had to find a way to get there tonight.
Xu Xinxin went back to the room, took a few sets of clothes, put on her raincoat, and told the little orange cat, "Keep an eye on the house. If you feel anything is wrong, take the field mice and the rooster up the mountain," then ran out in the heavy rain.
It was very dark outside the house now and the ground could not be seen at all. Following the guidance of the system, Xu Xinxin groped his way to the river.
The water surface of the river has submerged the fence of the land. When you step into it, the river water directly submerges your shoes.
"Fangzi, jiangzi, are you here?"
In the heavy rain, as soon as Xu Xinxin opened her mouth, raindrops hit her face and flowed into her mouth along the corners of her mouth.
Her eyes were hit by the raindrops and she couldn't open them completely. She could only half open her eyes and search for the finless porpoises on the river.
"Meh~"
Xu Xinxin waited for a while and finally heard a familiar voice.
On the surface of the river, the porpoise heard Xu Xinxin's voice and immediately swam over with a "puff puff".
When the porpoise swam to the shore, Xu Xinxin climbed onto its back skillfully and asked anxiously, "Do you know where the Huangu Dam is? Can you take me there quickly?"
"Meh~"
The porpoise raised its head in response, then immediately turned around and swam quickly in one direction.
After his eyes adjusted to the darkness for a while, Xu Xinxin could now barely see the nearby scenes.
The river, which was already very wide, appeared even wider after the water level rose.
Xu Xinxin didn't know how long she had been on the porpoise's back. Even though she was wearing a raincoat, the rain flowed down her neck and her clothes were all wet.
"Meh~"
Finally, the porpoise swam to the dam and leaned against the river bank.
Xu Xinxin climbed down from its back and, following the system's instructions, found the nearest route. He kept running forward and finally found the path leading to the dam.
On the way, many people were running towards the dam one after another.
When Xu Xinxin ran to the dam, he found that on the not-so-wide dam, there was a car every few meters, with the front and rear lights all on.
Even further away, there are "headlights" that illuminate the road, and at a glance, it's full of people.
When Xu Xinxin saw so many people coming, she felt a lot more at ease.
"Make way, make way!"
Before she could stand still, three or four people pushing small carts with a pile of "earth" on them ran towards her quickly.
Xu Xinxin stepped aside to make way for them, and heard someone shouting not far away: "We are short of people here, anyone who has time, come with me!"
“Here it comes!”
“Here it comes!”
Xu Xinxin and an elderly lady who had just arrived nearby responded loudly at the same time, then trotted over.
But before she could run over, someone in the crowd immediately shouted, "There are enough people here, enough."
Ah, is that enough people?
Before Xu Xinxin could react, she heard someone shouting from the other side: "We're short of people here, come over quickly!"
She ran over again.
After running back and forth three or four times, she finally saw a small road next to her. There was a large truck parked on the side of the road, and someone was shouting, "Unload the goods! Come on, unload the goods!"
When Xu Xinxin heard the voice, she ran to the front of the crowd.
But as soon as she walked over, the person in charge next to her stopped her with her hand and shouted, "Are you an adult? You are running over here. You are so small... Go away and stop causing trouble here!"
"What did you say!"
The rain was so heavy that the man spoke a long speech, but Xu Xinxin only heard the words "have you reached adulthood yet" and "go away".
She probably knew what this person meant. She was afraid that the sound of rain would drown out her voice, so she shouted back at the top of her voice: "I have spatial abilities! Spatial abilities, I can unload the cargo!"
"Why didn't you say so earlier!"
The person in charge next to her heard the words "spatial power" she shouted and immediately pulled her arm and squeezed into the crowd.
"Make way, make way, there's a person with superpowers here!"
After finally squeezing to the side of the carriage, Xu Xinxin immediately climbed onto the carriage and reached out to touch each of the "earth mounds" in the carriage.
The people who were originally rushing to unload the goods, just turned around and found that most of the goods on the carriage were gone in an instant.
Everyone was very nervous at first, but when they saw this scene, they were all stunned for a moment and stared at Xu Xinxin blankly.
“What a talent!”
Someone sighed, and the person in charge next to him immediately reacted and said excitedly: "There are enough people unloading, you guys should transport all these to the dam, quickly!"
"no problem."
Soon, the crowd reacted and stopped unloading the goods. Instead, they moved the bags of earth that had already been unloaded on the ground onto carts and then pushed them onto the dam.
There were not enough wheelbarrows, so those who were strong carried the soil on their shoulders. They carried several bags of soil on their shoulders and walked towards the dam.
