Chapter 166: When it rains, it pours



Gu Yanzhang's prediction was correct.

After more than ten days of heavy rain, many houses of poor families in Gujiagang actually collapsed.

When those dilapidated and low houses were completely turned into ruins, those hunched poor people now had bitter faces and cried bitterly. They all cried

very sadly.

Some even cried heartbreakingly.

Some elderly people with faces like squashes even knelt on the ground, patted their thighs, pointed their fingers at the God outside, and shouted loudly, "God, please have mercy on me!"

"Stop the rain! Stop the rain now! If it continues to rain like this, what will we eat next year?"

Thinking of the food they had stored at home, which had been repeatedly ordered by the clan leader more than half a month ago to be stored in the ancestral hall, those who secretly hid a batch of food at home cried even more sadly and collapsed. If they had known

it would be like this, they should have listened to what the clan leader said.

Why didn't they store all the food at home in the ancestral hall? !

Now the food they brought with them was soaked by the heavy rain. If they didn't use fire to dry it in time, then the food would be wasted.

The food was moldy, that was a big deal!

So, a large number of people with tattered clothes... some people didn't even have a piece of clothing, so they went to the clan leader Gu Yuxi's house with red eyes, hoping that he could help think of a solution.

However, what could Gu Yuxi do? !

Unable to bear the pressure from these people, Gu Yuxi suggested to them, "You can exchange the food that has been wet by the rain with other households. Exchange the wet food for dry food. Let them help you. In this way,..."

Before Gu Yuxi finished speaking, most of the poor people in the village had already thought of Gu Yanzhang's family.

"Yes, yes, Chief, you are right!"

"We should take the wet food and exchange it for their dry food!"

"That's right, that's right. We are all from the same village, and we are all relatives within the fifth degree of mourning. We have to ask Yan Ge'er's family for help... Hasn't his family made a fortune in recent years? It shouldn't be difficult to ask him to exchange some dry food for us."

At the call of some caring people, the villagers who were severely affected by the disaster stood together excitedly. They

were ready to go to Yan Zhang's house together.

However, it was such a coincidence.

After a month of heavy rain, they couldn't find any food for the many wild beasts on the mountain. They

were really hungry. In this heavy rain, they all began to come down the mountain one after another. They were ready to eat those two-legged animals that were not easy to move.

Especially for tigers, leopards, wolves and bears that had eaten humans, the two-legged animals at the foot of the mountain seemed to be particularly easy to catch.

Especially those hiding in mud holes.

Some black bears come down from the mountains every year to eat people.

They are huge in size and their claws are particularly sharp. It doesn't take much effort to dig out those fragile yellow mud walls.

They are experienced and are now coming down the mountain in the rain.

Some animals are very alert, looking around on the mountain road and wandering slowly.

Some animals are almost going crazy with hunger. At this moment, they would occasionally raise their bodies and stand straight. With their shiny black noses, they would sniff vigorously at the sky full of water vapor.

They would run in the direction of the strong smell of people.

So, when hundreds of Gujia villagers were walking towards Gu Yanzhang's house in the heavy rain, they ran face to face with a giant bear that was three meters tall.

In the midst of a violent storm, some villagers who were particularly quick to react suddenly saw such a huge, pitch-black, and particularly ferocious black bear, and screamed in fear.

"Run! The bear is coming, the bear is coming to our village! Quick! Notify every household!"

The young man's reaction ability was faster.

After they suddenly ran away, only the old, weak and sick were left standing there, not daring to move.

If there were not a few terrified children, crying and shouting for help, it is estimated that those people who were still there would not have reacted yet.

These people separated and fled to this place in fear.

However, the black bear, which was huge in size but extremely agile, still rushed over at a speed of 100 meters per second.

After biting three to death and seriously injuring two at once, it continued to chase with a purpose.

Soon, it caught up with two adult men.

After the two unlucky men let out a very panicked scream, the violent storm here seemed to calm down all of a sudden.

Soon, extremely terrifying chewing sounds were heard from the dense jungle. There were also painful cries.

Although bears are omnivorous animals

, they actually feed on meat.

Moreover, they have always had a characteristic. That is, after catching the prey, they don't care whether the prey is alive or dead.

If the prey is alive, they will be particularly cruel and cold.

Because they will eat those fresh lives alive, bite by bite.

...

When the tribe leader Gu Yuxi heard that another black bear ran down the mountain, his eyes turned red and he almost cried out.

Every time he heard such news, he knew that some unlucky people in and outside the village might have been killed.

Thinking of the many wild beasts here, they would come down the mountain every year and eat people every year. Either this village was suffering, or people in that village were killed. Gu Yuxi couldn't bear the psychological pressure and burst into tears.

"Wuwuwu, why are we so unlucky this year?!"

One thing after another. Did God want to force them to death?

Just when he was exhausted from crying, his most beloved grandson, Gu Chongzuo, said it bluntly.

"Grandpa, this matter...we should have made plans earlier."

Without waiting for Gu Yuxi to ask, Gu Chongzuo bowed and said seriously, "Grandpa, as the saying goes, when it rains, it pours. Many times, misfortunes never come alone."

"Right now, many villagers have no place to live, no food to eat, and no land to plant. Even if God clears up immediately, the things that have been lost cannot be recovered..."

"We have to quickly resettle those villagers. Our ancestral hall is quite large. In an emergency, we can resettle them there first..."

Gu Yuxi frowned and said, "I can do this. But I'm worried that we will offend those ancestors by doing so."
