"Village chief, the flood is coming, the flood is coming, run!"
A shrill scream completely shattered the peace of several people.
I saw a man running towards me, his whole body was wet. When he saw the village chief and others, he nervously repeated what he had just said.
The village chief couldn't help but shudder at this time, and then began to ask what happened in front?
It turned out that the river embankment had collapsed, and the villagers had to be evacuated quickly and run up the mountain quickly.
But at this moment, the air was blocked by the sound of heavy rain. Even if you shouted at the top of your lungs in the village, it was not certain that anyone would be able to hear you.
The only way is to quickly return to the brigade compound and use the radio to notify all villagers to evacuate immediately!
The village chief made a prompt decision and said to the others, "I'll go to the compound and use the radio to notify them to evacuate.
Hurry up and pull the tables and chairs up the mountain before the bridge is destroyed.
These are the desks and chairs that the children use for study, nothing must happen to them.”
"Village Chief, then you should be careful too!"
Then, they ran towards the village entrance even faster, fearing that if they ran too slowly a flood would come and they would not be able to leave even if they wanted to!
When the few people pushed the cart to the edge of the bridge, they were completely dumbfounded.
Because at this time the water in the river had already submerged the small bridge and was probably up to the calf level.
This small bridge was built a long time ago with simple stones and there were no fences on either side.
If they go up, the water flow is very fast, and maybe in the next second...!
"Teacher Yang, what should we do?" The man pulling the cart in front couldn't help but look back and asked.
Yang Xiaoshuang was unsure at the moment. The river was flowing so fast. If something really happened, she didn't know who would be responsible. She couldn't do it!
"This...what should I do?"
Yang Xiaoshuang was a little hesitant for a moment. If she didn't leave, the children would have no desks to study at in the future.
But if they leave, their lives may be in danger.
This responsibility is too great, she can hardly bear it!
Just as several people were hesitating, the village loudspeaker suddenly rang out.
The village chief shouted over the loudspeaker: Retreat! Retreat immediately! The flood is coming!
A simple sentence reveals a dangerous signal ahead!
The villagers who were still packing up their things in the village and preparing to transport them up the mountain for the second time now had no time to get their things.
Everyone ran towards the village entrance in panic, but when they arrived at the river, they were dumbfounded.
But for the last glimmer of hope, everyone held hands and stepped onto the stone bridge submerged by the river one by one.
Although people could barely pass through the rope, Xia Yuwei and the others needed the entire car.
This is a bit difficult.
At this time, the original depth under the bridge was about 1.7 meters, and the water level, which had now spread to a calf of the bridge body, was about 1.9 to 2 meters.
Even if a tall and strong man jumped in, he would be submerged up to his head.
Besides, the river was so turbulent that you might be washed away the moment you jumped in.
Whether someone jumped down to help push the cart, or they stepped directly onto the bridge, neither of them seemed to be a wise move?
Niu Xingwang ran over breathlessly and saw several people struggling with the stone bridge.
I was so angry for a moment. It had been such a long time and several people hadn't walked over yet.
The later it was, the deeper the water on the bridge became. He made a quick decision and urged several people to rush over.
