Chapter 64 The Flood is Coming
Although Lu Wanyin didn't say anything harsh.
But that cold tone made the Xie family feel extremely threatened, and they all huddled together.
If it was when the emperor had just ordered the exile, they would naturally be eager to break off the relationship.
But now it’s different, they have nothing to rely on.
But Xie Jingci and Lu Wanyin lived a happy life even in exile.
What's more, the emperor was only demoted to a commoner.
If Xie Jingci makes a comeback, they will naturally be able to rise to prosper again.
The Xie family members pushed each other and said they were unwilling to do so.
In the end, it was Xie Deyao who took the initiative to step forward and let Xie Ziqian help him to Zhou.
Xie Ziqian didn't expect that he would actually kick Zhou a few times.
"You black-hearted bitch!"
"You think everyone is a fool, don't you? You still don't know how to reflect on yourself at this time. Our Xie family will never tolerate you!"
Xie Ziqian reacted and immediately rushed over to block Zhou: "Dad! It was Mom who took care of you all the way! You can't be so heartless to her!"
Xie Deyao was furious: "If he hadn't been so cruel to your elder brother, I wouldn't have done this to him."
As he spoke, tears flowed from Xie Deyao's cloudy eyes.
"Jingci, Dad is also wrong. If I hadn't been so focused on supporting the family in the early years and trusted that Zhou would treat you well, you wouldn't have suffered so much in vain."
As he said this, Xie Deyao actually knelt down in the direction of Xie Jingci.
He kowtowed twice: "Dad is wrong! Dad apologizes to you!"
Since ancient times, only sons have to kneel to their fathers, and there is no reason for fathers to kneel to their sons.
Hou Yuanji believed that he wished Xie Jingci would die immediately.
But at this moment, he couldn't bear to watch it anymore.
He sneered, "You think the Feng Shui formation can't kill people, so you plan to ask for a thunderbolt to kill Xie Jingci?"
Xie Deyao waved his hands hastily, "Your Excellency has misunderstood! Jingci, Dad only realized today how much Zhou had done to hurt you behind your back. Dad sincerely repents!"
"Dad doesn't dare to ask for your forgiveness, but just hopes..."
Hou Yuanji rolled his eyes and said, "If we can turn hostility into friendship, you can bring your whole family and eat his flesh and drink his blood."
Xie Deyao wanted to continue to be stubborn, but when he met Xie Jingci's cold eyes, he couldn't utter a word.
Lu Wanyin glanced at Hou Yuanji and said with a smile, "I never thought you could spit out ivory from your dog's mouth."
Hou Yuanji: You are the one with the dog mouth, your whole family is a dog mouth!
Boom!!!
Suddenly, a deafening roar came from outside the cave.
Lu Wanyin and her bodyguards ran out immediately.
But before he ran out of the cave, he bumped into Wu Fan who was crawling back.
Wu Fan was soaked by the rain and gasped for breath: "Something happened!"
Hou Yuanji rushed over and said, "What's the matter?"
Before he could even catch his breath, Wu Fan spoke incoherently, "A mountain... a mountain torrent has erupted! The river water... has rushed... has rushed into the village!"
Xie Jingci immediately ordered: "All guards, listen up! Go and support us immediately!"
"I obey your command!"
The roar of the flood filled the entire cave, but none of the guards retreated.
Their eyes were determined.
Until his death, he was a hero defending the common people.
Lu Wanyin followed closely behind.
Outside the cave, heavy rain suddenly came.
The dim and turbid flood rushed in from upstream, sweeping away all the trees along the way and rushing downstream with unstoppable force.
Hou Yuanji looked at this scene and felt a sense of fear.
Fortunately, he finally listened to Lu Wanyin's words, otherwise there would definitely be heavy casualties if he crossed the mountain road at this time.
He had been very careful all the way, and it would be really unfair if he failed at this time.
Lu Wanyin is truly his lucky star.
…
“Help!”
"Dad! Mom! I'm scared! Wuu ...
All the thatched huts along the river in the village were washed down, and dozens of villagers were swept into the river.
People in the river were calling for help, and people on the shore were crying.
Xuan Qi knocked out an old man who tried to rush into the turbulent river to save people, and handed him over to other villagers.
Then, regardless of his injuries, he rushed into the river without hesitation.
Xuan Yi decisively ordered: "Leave one person behind to protect the people on the shore."
After saying this, he also took off his coat and jumped into the river.
All the guards rushed in.
There was only one guard left on the shore, who was forced to take on the responsibility of preventing the villagers from blindly going into the water.
After looking around, his eyes fixed on Lu Wanyin.
Lu Wanyin suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, the guard laughed happily and said, "Madam, I'll trouble you with these people."
After saying that, he also dived into the water.
Compared with preventing the villagers on the shore from entering the water, searching and rescuing the villagers who were washed away by the water is more urgent.
These personal guards were all warriors who fought their way through the battlefield, and the words "defending the country" have long been ingrained in their bones and blood.
Lu Wanyin has been struggling in the apocalypse for a long time and has seen many selfish, cold-blooded and ruthless people.
I have forgotten that a person with flesh and blood can have such a pure heart.
The flood in the river channel, which was several meters wide, was surging like an angry tiger rushing around.
The villagers and guards were nothing but ants.
Even if you use all your strength, you can only drift with the flow.
In the blink of an eye, someone crashed into a tree on the shore.
Some people were washed up on the waves but were knocked back into the river by another wave.
Others were exhausted and about to fall to the bottom of the river.
Lu Wanyin loudly comforted the people on the shore: "Don't panic, General Xie's people will definitely rescue your relatives."
"So they are General Xie's men. We are saved then."
When the people heard that it was Xie Jingci's people, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Wanyin was not idle either. There were many aquatic plants and vines in the flood, and there were also many plants along the way.
With a thought, she secretly controlled these plants to support her guards and the people who fell into the water.
Fortunately, the waves were so big that no one noticed her movements.
Occasionally, when I saw vines and branches undulating on the water, I thought they were washed down by the flood.
"Help... Ugh..."
Xuan Yi had just picked up a five-year-old child when a wave of water hit him in the face.
He immediately turned around with difficulty, facing the water with his back, intending to take the blow.
But unexpectedly, a thin and soft willow branch suddenly appeared around her waist.
Before he could even react, he was pulled to the shore, barely avoiding the wave.
Xuan Yi lowered her head and saw that there was nothing on her waist, as if it was just an illusion.
Lu Wanyin reminded loudly: "What are you standing there for? There's someone over there!"
Xuan Yi didn't think any more and quickly handed the child to his family on the shore, then turned around and floated back into the water.
Lu Wanyin controlled the plants in the water and silently formed flood prevention piles one after another in places with suitable terrain.
Sure enough, the water level was reduced a lot due to the obstruction of several flood control piles.
It is visible to the naked eye that the water column flowing downstream has become much narrower.
