Chapter 70 A flash flood is coming! (2)
The sun was shining brightly during the days when we were working hard!
No one said it out loud, but many people were secretly muttering to themselves, wondering if the past half month's work had been in vain. The artificial lake has been dug now, so don’t complain that there’s no water when the time comes… Without water, it can’t be a lake, and fish can’t be raised. Wasn’t what you, Bai Zhenggan, said before about raising and dividing fish nonsense?
Even Bai Zhenggan was a little shaken.
Only Song Zhi insisted on having the villagers form a patrol team. He also observed several places with higher terrain and built straw huts there with his men. I also told everyone that if you really encounter a flash flood, don't worry about anything else, just run here to hide and save your life first.
Everyone laughed at him and said he was a nerd and thought too much.
However, because Bai Zhenggan also insisted that everyone form a team for patrol, the villagers still formed a team and patrolled the mountain in three shifts 24 hours a day.
That night, Taotao had just fallen asleep when Little Grape woke her up.
[Taotao! Taotao Taotao...wake up! Grandpa and the others can’t hold on any longer, a flash flood is coming! Now all we plants can do is use our roots to hold on to the rocks and soil, because the flood is coming! The flood is coming! 】
Taotao was startled and immediately got up, shouting, "Dad! Mom! Song Zhi! Sister-in-law... Xingxing! Get up quickly! Get up quickly... The flood is coming!"
The whole family was awakened by her fright, and they all came over with their clothes on to ask -
Tao Tao suddenly had an idea, "I, I... just had a nightmare..."
Tang Liren sighed, "Not to mention Taotao, even I have been feeling uneasy these past few days. I am worried that if the flood doesn't come, we won't be able to explain to the villagers. I am also worried that if the flood comes, what we have done won't be enough..."
Bai Zhenggan, "If you have nothing to do, go back to sleep—"
Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of thunder in the sky and several flashes of lightning lit up the sky.
"It's going to rain!" said Bai Zhenggan.
Sure enough, bean-sized raindrops fell from the sky in an instant, hitting the nearby plants with crackling sounds.
Song Zhi seemed to be naturally very sensitive to danger. He said decisively: "Uncle, aunt, we have to leave immediately! Put on your thickest clothes, wear more clothes, bring your quilts, and rush to the rain shelter we built earlier."
"Not really?" Tang Liren asked.
Song Zhi's tone was a little heavy, "Aunt, you have to think about your sister-in-law."
Tan Fenghui is eight months pregnant with her fourth child.
Tang Liren made a decision immediately. "Okay, let's go! Hurry up, each of you should put on at least four pieces of clothing... Well, wear as many as you have!"
At that moment, everyone hurried back to the house and put on all the clothes they could, then wrapped several thin quilts in bundles and tied them around their bodies. Next, Xingxing pulled Hongdou, Taotao pulled Huangdou, Tang Liren carried Mungdou and supported Tan Fenghui, Song Zhi supported Bai Zhenggan...even the two dogs at home were brought along, and the whole family hurried to the shelter.
Unexpectedly, before they reached the shelter, someone on the mountain struck a gong, "—A flash flood is coming! A flash flood is coming!"
