Chapter 117: Only God can do what He wants

He was the person in the whole village who was most familiar with the environment of the back mountain. He had gone hunting along many roads before, and he chose a road that seemed to be able to go up the mountain. He asked Liang Yuanliang, Liang Yuanshan and him to take Liang Weijiang up the mountain.

"Let me stay here. It's raining so hard. If something happens, I..." Liang Weijiang was unwilling to go with them.

"I've already explored the route. It'll be fine. You just need to follow me and I'll lead the way." Liang Huanxue said firmly, "Weijiang, don't feel guilty. This is what we should do."

Having said that, Liang Huanxue turned around and walked out.

Liang Weijiang was wrapped in a bed sheet, carried by Liang Yuanliang and Liang Yuanshan, following behind Liang Huanxue.

"Let's carry him on our backs. That way it will be easier to walk." Liang Yuanliang felt that as the two of them were carrying Liang Weijiang, their hands were restrained and it would be very difficult for them to walk.

It would be better if one person carries the person on his back for a while while the other person can lend a hand to support him.

In this way, they walked up the mountain step by step, with difficulty.

Although they encountered danger several times along the way, they were all successfully resolved by Liang Huanxue, and they finally arrived at the door of the bamboo house.

The waterproof felt on the roof of the bamboo house was blown off by the wind. Liang Huanxue picked it up and reinforced it again, and the house stopped leaking.

Fortunately, the firewood was covered with waterproof felt and did not get wet.

Liang Huanxue started a fire in the bamboo house, took out the food wrapped in oil paper and put it aside.

"Third brother, you stay here and take care of Weijiang. My eldest brother and I will be back soon." Liang Huanxue said, picking up the raincoat placed by the door.

In fact, he was soaked all over, and he wore the raincoat only because he didn't want to get hurt by the rain.

"Third brother, since Huanxue said it's safe here, then it must be safe. You can just stay here and take care of the frontier. We'll take care of everything at home." After Liang Yuanliang finished speaking, he also put on his straw raincoat and went down the mountain with Liang Huanxue.

I stumbled a lot on the way down the mountain, but at least I didn't suffer any serious injuries.

Liang Huanxue saw two figures emerging from the darkness and shouted, "They're back! Dad and uncle are back!"

"God bless us, God bless us!" Old Mrs. Liang was so excited that she burst into tears.

"How's the situation on the mountain?" Liang Huanxue saw that Liang Weijiang had reached a safe place, so she asked about the situation on the mountain.

Liang Yuanliang and Liang Huanxue frowned immediately.

Although they didn't say anything, Liang Huanxue already understood that the situation was not optimistic.

"It seems that just using those sacks is not enough. We have to think of other ways." Liang Huanxue knew that the previous mud and sand would definitely not be enough, so they had to think of other ways.

Even if there is no way to save all the rooms, at least one or two should be left for shelter.

Liang Huanxue went out in the rain to take a look and thought that drainage channels could be dug around the area.

It just so happened that there were no houses in front of them, and it was just a slope, so it would not affect others.

Liang Huanxue told this idea to Old Lady Liang, who immediately arranged for her children and grandchildren to take shovels and hoes to dig ditches.

By the time the drainage ditch was dug, it was already midnight.

The village was in darkness, and except for the Liang family, no other house had a light on.

Liang Huanxue had taken a nap on purpose before, so she was still quite energetic. So she lay alone in the room closest to the back mountain, observing what was going on in the back mountain.

A bronze drum was hung beside her, with the drumstick in her little hand, ready to strike it as a warning at any time.

The night was passing and the rain was becoming lighter.

Just when Liang Huanxue was wondering whether the crisis was over, she suddenly heard an unusual noise.

She immediately struck the gong.

When the Liang family heard the noise, they were immediately awakened from their dreams. They did not ask Huan Xue what was going on. As agreed before, they split up and went to various parts of the village to inform everyone of the impending danger.

"The flood is coming soon, run to higher places quickly!" Liang Shoujiang shouted loudly, making sure that the nearby households could hear his voice.

But the attitudes of the people who were woken up were not good at all, and some even spoke bad words to him.

"Where is the flood? You are lying!"

"That's right, knocking on the door in the middle of the night, do you think I can sleep?"

"We finally waited for this rain, but you keep talking about floods. Aren't you annoyed?"

Liang Shoujiang looked at the three closed doors in front of him with helplessness.

"I have already warned you, but you didn't believe me. If anything goes wrong, you can't blame me."

He didn't waste too much time here, but went to the next house.

The Liang family was busy all this time, but they didn't manage to persuade many people.

Just as they were hesitating whether to persuade him again, they heard a rapid burst of gongs and drums.

That was Huanxue reminding them that the flood was coming.

If we continue to stay here, we might be swept away by the flood.

Now that the obligation to remind has been fulfilled, the rest is up to fate.

The Liang family turned around and returned to the Liang family as quickly as possible.

The few people who listened to the advice had already arrived in the yard before them. They didn't know where to go safely, so they thought that the Liang family must have a way, so they came here.

Old Mrs. Liang originally wanted to persuade them to leave, but she didn't know that the flood had already come.

They were terrified as they watched the flood turn the village into an ocean in an instant.

Fortunately, the Liang family had already dug a drainage channel in advance, thus avoiding being invaded by the flood.

As a result, the Liang family became an isolated island.

"What should we do with the remaining people? Is there any way to save them?" The village chief was one of the people who listened to the advice. When he was rushing to the Liang family, he also advised the families along the way.

But no one listened to him.

At that time, he was thinking, maybe the flood will not come at all?

Who would have thought that the village would be flooded as soon as we got here.

Liang Huanxue seemed to be oblivious to the noise nearby. Instead, she stood in front of the drainage ditch and observed the flood coming down from the mountain. She found that there were a lot of firewood and trees in it.

This means there is a high probability of mudslides.

The families closest to the back mountain did not heed the advice and escape. If they were caught in a mudslide, they would surely die.

Liang Huanxue sighed and asked Liang Jiajiang to take out the raft.

"First, save the people at the foot of the mountain. They are in the most danger. Then think of ways to save the rest. With the current flooding momentum, it will take some time before the roofs of houses are submerged."

After Liang Huanxue finished speaking, she found that everyone's eyes were on her.

As a child of a few years old, it is indeed a bit strange to be so calm and collected at this time.

But when human lives were at stake, Liang Huanxue was too lazy to care about anything else.

I just wanted to save people.

"Brother Jiajiang, please tell me how to use the raft." Liang Huanxue certainly didn't want to rescue people by herself.

Even if she wanted to go, the Liang family would never let her take the risk.

The task of rescuing people was naturally given to his father and uncle.
