After making the decision, Xiao Lingling took care of everything. Just in case, worried that Su Jingshuo and the others would come looking for her, she left a letter in the room.
After making sure there were no omissions, she aimed towards the south and began to quickly make hand gestures to move quickly through the mountains.
Fortunately, rain has little effect on spells. As long as you determine the direction, there is no major harm except the possibility of getting wet.
However, Xiao Lingling is a human being after all, so basically every hour, he needs to return to the space to regulate his breathing for two quarters of an hour.
This happened so many times that her spirit began to fail.
However, thinking of her previous calculations, she didn't dare to stop at all. She could only grit her teeth and drink cup after cup of spirit pool water to keep going.
Finally, after repeating it countless times, Xiao Lingling finally saw a little trace of the city gate.
She was no longer sure whether this was Wencheng Prefecture, but she had already seen some traces of being washed away by floods.
In order to speed up her journey, she kept jumping and moving on the trees and rarely went down to the ground.
After the heavy rain, the road was muddy. The further south you went, the more mud and sand there was on the ground. Even on the mountains, there were many trees and gravel that were washed crooked.
Most importantly, she could faintly smell something rotten.
The smell was a bit unpleasant. She frowned and without thinking much, quickly jumped onto the city wall.
There were several large characters carved on the city wall: Fangwen County.
Little Bell looked inside and found that the city was quiet, with no signs of human activity at all. The ground was covered with a thick layer of silt. Looking at the marks on the wall, one could roughly tell the water level of the previous flood.
Not that high.
Moreover, according to her calculations, the two largest waves of floods should not arrive until tonight.
When the time comes, the flood will surge down and can easily destroy various villages.
However, seeing that there are no dead bodies in the city now, the people must have been relocated.
She looked around. They were in a valley. If they wanted to avoid the flood, they had to go to higher ground.
Surrounded by mountains, it's not really sure where they will go.
However, this was not her final destination. Knowing that these people had escaped, she felt a little relieved.
Then continue walking south.
Her target was Changshui County, which was further south. It was the intersection of two rivers and was surrounded by a plain without any shelter. It was the area worst hit by the flood.
If she didn't go, thousands of people in the entire county would be implicated, and the casualties would be incalculable.
Little Lingling ignored the dull pain in her head and quickly headed south.
Finally, about an hour before dark, she vaguely saw the city wall of Changshui County.
This is the first place where it starts to rain. The dirt road on the official road has completely turned into a quagmire. If you throw a stone there, it will immediately sink deep into the mud and slowly sink.
There is a faint yellow dividing line on the city wall, about the height of a person.
Yes, they had already experienced a flood.
Xiao Lingling came to the city wall. There were still guards guarding it. Xiao Lingling deliberately avoided their sight and looked inside the city.
I found that almost everyone had come to the roof, and a large number of people had gathered in the higher shops on the street.
The rain was very loud, but the little bell could still hear everyone's cries of fear, anxiety, sadness or anger.
"Oh my God, someone please save us! I don't want to die yet. I just had a grandson!"
"I don't want to die either! Mom, please think of a solution quickly. We won't die, right?"
"You little bastard! How could you be so heartless! You just abandoned your mother like that! Your mother worked so hard to raise you, are you worthy of her?"
"Dad! Stop pretending to be kind now. When the flood was about to come, you ran faster than I did. Why didn't I see you helping my mother back then?"
"You! You, you unfilial son! I'm old, and your mother is so fat, I can't pull it!"
"Then shut up! You've ignored everyone just to save your own life, how dare you criticize me! If you continue to talk nonsense, I might throw you down too! You can even keep my mother company!"
"Husband, do you think we will die? Actually, I'm not afraid. As long as I can be with you, even if it means death, I'm willing to do it."
"My dear, I'm sorry. We've only been married for a few days and this has happened. If I had known this would happen, I should have taken you back to my parents' home to stay for a few days."
......
Everyone was crying so hard that the sound was louder than the rain, and Little Bell frowned as she heard it.
There were even many people covered with oil paper standing on the roof and hugging each other as if they were waiting for their impending death.
With so many people, Xiao Lingling couldn't transfer them instantly. Even if she put them into the space, there were too many people and too many noises, so this was obviously not a good idea.
What's more, these are only the people in the county. There are even more people in the villages and towns below, and she doesn't have time to save them one by one.
It seems that we can only find a solution at the source of the flood!
She slipped into the space while no one was paying attention, and as soon as she entered, she stumbled and almost fell.
She held onto the fruit tree and slowly steady herself, then called Deng Zhuo over.
Deng Zhuo was a little surprised to see her in such a mess. "Princess, what's wrong with you?"
Little Bell shook her head. "I'm fine! Now I need your help with something."
Xiao Lingling waved her hand, and more than a dozen large boxes appeared in the open space in front of the two people.
"Choose ten people and come over. I'll send you out and take these boxes into the city. They contain various supplies and food. You need to distribute them in the name of the Fifth Prince.
You need to stay outside for a few days. If anyone asks you about it, you can say that the Fifth Prince is worried and sent you here to appease everyone. The main force is following behind, and because the journey is difficult, they will arrive later.
If you save some of these, they will last you three to five days. I will come back later to get more ingredients for you.
This is the first time you go out on a mission together. I hope you won’t let me down.
After all, you all know my methods. I don't want to kill people, but it does mean I can't kill people."
Xiao Lingling was so tired that her words were filled with anger and impatience.
Deng Zhuo was already grateful to her for saving his daughter, so naturally he obeyed her.
"Okay, Princess, don't worry, we will complete it beautifully. I will select a few who have married and had children here. With wives and children here, they won't do anything reckless.
Besides, they've all gotten used to the carefree life here, and they're afraid of your tactics and don't dare to act recklessly."
Xiao Lingling nodded. She was indeed not afraid. After all, she had imposed restrictions on everyone who came in.
After all, this is her territory, and she doesn't want to have to clean up the mess every day.
So, it's just a knock.
