Chapter 94: Going into the city to bring back the remaining injured
"Don't worry."
Xie Zhizhi thought that it was probably because of the rising temperature that the originally frozen river water broke through the ice layer on the surface, and the previous heavy rains all burst out upstream.
The flood, judging by the current natural disasters and the end of the world, must be massive.
Time is running out.
More than a hundred people dropped what they were doing and rushed to the edge of the mountain. They all looked over and saw the surging waves of the river outside the city.
The river water from the upper reaches rushed in violently as if a gate had been opened. Before long, the river water would first rush towards the west of the city near the city gate like a tsunami!
"Sister, I want to move the captain of the guards and the rest of the people here, is that okay?"
Wang Xi asked her tentatively, and everyone around glanced at her with hidden expectation.
She agreed without hesitation: "That's what I was planning to do."
Xu Ji immediately smiled happily: "Then let's go, each of us can carry one and bring them to the mountain!"
Xie Zhizhi thought for a few seconds and calmly ordered: "Jinglan, Xu Ji, Wang Xi, and another awakened person, the eight of you will go to the general's mansion with me and bring back the rest of the people."
Jing Lan, Wang Xi and Xu Ji walked out of the crowd, and another strong man volunteered to step out.
"Yes, Sister 께."
"We're all fine."
She scanned everyone's worried faces and spoke in a low voice that gave people a sense of confidence and stability: "Just stay here. As long as you are on the roof, there won't be much danger. If the wind is strong, hide in the hole we dug."
"Understood!" Everyone responded loudly.
Afterwards, Xie Zhizhi quickly led Jinglan and eight others out of the mountain.
She said she would take care of her, but in the end it was Jing Lan who took care of her.
The eight of them left the mountain using Qinggong. Although Xu Ji, Wang Xi and the others had been on the battlefield, their Qinggong skills were not as good as Jing Lan's, so they lagged behind by a distance.
We rushed all the way to the General's Mansion. The streets in the city were crowded because there had been no natural disasters in the past two days.
The corpses on the ground, the ice and hail on the road were all dissolved and corroded by the acid rain. With more than half of the corpses gone, the plague was not so likely to occur.
Passersby who met Xie Zhizhi and her companions on the road, whether they were awake or not, would turn around and walk away as soon as they saw her.
There were also people from large families among the crowd, and some of them hurried back to report the news.
Xie Zhizhi didn't have time to care about their thoughts and rushed to the general's mansion as quickly as possible.
Walk through the streets and alleys, enter the gate, and go into the cave.
The head of the guard saw them sliding down the stairs in a hurry, and hurried to meet them, respectfully but puzzledly: "Sister Xiao, what's the matter that makes you leave so quickly?"
"The water level of the river outside the city has risen, and there may be a flood soon!" Xie Zhizhi stared at everyone in the cave with his dark eyes, and ordered in a deep voice: "So, those who are healthy should carry their injured companions on their backs and hurry up the mountain with us."
"Wang Xi, Xu Ji, just follow them. If you encounter danger, immediately activate the protective shield. If necessary, it can resist the flood for a short time!"
Wang Xi and others nodded.
The only 28 people left in the cave immediately became alert, and the captain of the guards methodically directed them to carry the injured on their backs.
The chief guard brought the court doctor with him. There was already one awakened person, and with the addition of the three he brought, each person could carry one injured person.
One by one, the awakened ones climbed up the ladder carrying the injured. There were fewer and fewer people in the cave. The captain of the guard looked at the pile of food reluctantly with a sad face.
"What about the grains and rice, sister?"
Xie Zhizhi gave him a reassuring look and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to save it. You guys go up first and I'll be behind you."
"Jinglan, take them back later. I'm going to the residence of the Minister of Justice."
"Yes, Sister Xiao." Jing Lan knew that Sister Xiao had a treasure, so he was not worried and responded immediately.
When the captain of the guards heard Sister 께 say this, his heart dropped back into his stomach. Since Sister 께 said there was a way, then there must be a way. All they had to do was not to hold back. They immediately pulled up the old doctor and carried him out of the cave.
After Xie Zhizhi and the others had all left the cave, all the food, utensils, kitchen utensils, clothes, tables and chairs in the cave were put into the space and placed in a fixed place.
Put it back after the flood.
