The water completely loses its forward flow momentum and slowly begins to flow towards areas with lower elevations.
This is why the entire pit-dwelling courtyard was completely submerged.
In the previous life, the flood caused the deaths of seven people in Wangjia Village, which was considered a relatively small loss for the village.
There used to be another village between Wangjia Village and Lijia Village.
This heavy rain completely submerged the entire village.
It is said that dozens of people died.
Then the village was merged, and it never existed again.
The original village site was later leveled by pushing down all the pit-style courtyards on both sides, forming a sunken alley.
That alley was terrifying. Ever since that incident happened, people could only walk through it during the day; they didn't dare to move at night at all.
It is said that the cries of women searching for their children can be heard all night long.
It was undeniably tragic.
It is said that in some families, not a single person managed to escape.
They were all drowned in the pit courtyard.
In some households, even pigs and dogs were drowned.
The Cao family is now in the same situation.
Moreover, the Cao family is even more difficult to deal with.
This family has some kind of mental problem, more or less.
Otherwise, everyone else would know to run up, but why are their houses just lying around in the lake, not moving an inch?
Wang Tianxiao and Wang Tianyi went down into the pit courtyard, but it was pitch black and they couldn't see anything.
Because of the heavy rain, some utility poles in the village were probably blown down, and some fallen trees also broke the power lines, so there should be no power at all now.
"A powerful figure, Cao Hong?!"
"Great power!"
Wang Tianxiao called out, and Wang Tianyi followed suit.
There was no response whatsoever.
Apart from the gradually diminishing patter of rain and the tapping sound of raindrops hitting the eaves of the sheltered house.
The pit courtyard was exceptionally quiet.
Wang Tianxiao had a bad feeling.
The rain has been falling for so long, and judging from the extent of the flooding, it's probably already up to the height of the kang (a heated brick bed). There's no way these people wouldn't have made a move.
"Tianyi, let's search each room one by one."
"good."
The two arrived at the first cave dwelling, which belonged to Cao Shuang.
I pushed the door hard, but it wouldn't budge.
I don't know if it's plugged in or sealed by water.
The water level outside is currently about waist-high to Wang Tianxiao. Based on his height, the water depth should be around 1.2 to 1.3 meters.
The height of a kang (heated brick bed) in a home is generally around 80 centimeters.
If the water level inside is the same as outside, then the water level has definitely exceeded the height of the kang (heated brick bed).
How can I possibly sleep peacefully?
"Kick it hard, see if you can kick it open."
"It feels difficult; the door is blocked."
Wang Tianxiao and Wang Tianyi kicked the door many times, but it didn't budge.
It's like a car falling into water and the door being impossible to open.
But there's no other way right now.
The two had no choice but to kick the seam of the door with all their might. It was difficult to get a good grip in the water, and they kicked it countless times until finally they managed to kick a hole in the door.
He ripped the broken door apart with all his might.
Sure enough, the water level inside was the same as outside.
Once torn apart, the door quickly fell apart, and Wang Tianxiao and his companion felt their way in. They first touched the kang (a heated brick bed) and immediately found someone.
Judging from his chubby, slippery build and the fact that he wasn't wearing any clothes, it must be Cao Shuang.
I touched her again, but there was no one else there.
So it seems like his wife and children aren't here.
How lucky!
Although the room was flooded by rain, it still reeked of alcohol, indicating that the guy had drunk too much last night.
He might have fought with his wife again.
Cao Shuang loved to drink, and every time he finished drinking, he would beat his wife. His wife wasn't very bright to begin with, and after being beaten many times, she became even more foolish.
It seems that in a past life, after I hit my wife, she ran away with someone else and never came back.
Maybe today will be the same; his wife will be beaten so badly that she'll take the kids and go back to her parents' house first.
It just so happens that they avoided this flood.
The most urgent task is to get Cao Shuang out of here.
"Come on, Tianyi, lend a hand."
"Okay, I'll lift my foot."
"OK."
Cao Shuang was either drunk or drowned; in any case, he remained motionless.
Wang Tianxiao patted his face and found it was somewhat cold.
But my nostrils were still hot.
It's probably not completely dead yet; there's still a need to try to save it.
