Chapter 222: Ink Attack
But as a junior, what else can she do besides satisfying Amogong's curiosity?
At first, Gu Feixue also felt that Amo Gong was a little passive and slacking off, but soon he found that Amo Gong was observing the soil. The old guy was actually eating the soil while grabbing it.
Seeing this, Su Xipo was confused.
But Gu Feixue saw through the trick. This Amogong was an expert among experts. He might be testing something.
"What is Master testing?"
"This is acid rain. It's rained three inches and two centimeters in the past three days. As for the soil here, it's good. It can be used to make pottery pots."
Gu Feixue nodded.
"Shall we go to the dam?" In fact, Gu Feixue was also anxious.
Jiangzhou has a peach blossom flood every year. After the peach blossom flood, it is followed by the plum rain that lasts for three months. In fact, Jiangzhou has abundant rain every year, and the drizzle never stops.
But every year the rain is heavier than this year.
Gu Feixue hasn't reached the dam yet.
The last time they left was six days ago. At that time, the people refused to move, which led to many conflicts. But now that Gu Feixue has returned, nine out of ten houses are empty.
Gu Feixue saw many panicked figures, each one running faster than the other.
An elderly and frail person fell behind, and Gu Feixue hurried over to support him. The old lady was already breathing very hard. It was these elderly people who had said before that they would not move, but now it was strange that each of them was more anxious to leave than the other.
"Auntie, how is the magistrate handling the flood? Why do I see so many people fleeing?"
Could it be that Wen Baxian is also preparing to escape or has already escaped?
She looked around and saw many people packing up their bags and running away. They all looked pale and dying. The old woman looked pale and panting. "The dam is about to burst, it's really about to burst."
"How is this possible?"
Gu Feixue looked up at the sky. It was a beautiful day with a gentle breeze, and there was no sign of rain. Gu Feixue's people had done hydrological observations before, and they knew that the flood water level would change depending on the increase or decrease in rainfall.
In other words, weather is also a dangerous signal and factor.
The weather is obviously fine now, but why did this happen? I felt a sense of fear.
"Upstream, although it's not raining here, it might be raining upstream, girl."
Hearing this, Gu Feixue was stunned.
"Okay, run away."
"Girl, you are here to visit relatives and friends. I guess your family has left. Don't commit suicide. Listen to what Auntie says. Let's go to the nearby mountains and come back after the tide goes down."
"Ah, thank you." Gu Feixue was anxious to find Yuchi Shuo.
On the long street, people were running around in panic. The situation that Gu Feixue was most afraid of seeing had finally happened. Looking at this group of people coming and going, she was speechless.
Su Xipo, who was walking behind, had a worried look on his face. "Why do I feel like we're seeking death?"
"If it is beneficial to the country, I will not hesitate to live or die. How can I avoid humiliation?" It's not that Gu Feixue is righteous, but she cannot retreat when she encounters difficulties.
Natural disasters and man-made disasters are already before us, and those in power have all retreated. What will happen to the people?
"Is His Highness really here?"
Su Xipo looked into the distance, as if looking for something.
But everywhere I looked, there was nothing but devastation. The roofs of the houses on the street were covered with green moss, making them look dirty. The air was filled with a faint smell of fish and earth.
The most incredible thing was that the two men didn't see a single soldier.
"Where are the soldiers patrolling the city?" This was not only what Su Xipo wanted to ask, but also the answer that Gu Feixue wanted to know.
A reckless child bumped into Gu Feixue.
Gu Feixue hurried to support the child. The child was panting and seemed to be chased by a wolf from behind.
"What's wrong?" She turned around.
The child was frightened and stammered, "Water, water is coming, it's coming."
Seeing the panicked look on the child's face, Gu Feixue comforted him with a few words, but the child still ran away in a hurry.
"Master Su, Master, we must go to the moat immediately to check out the dam." Gu Feixue had the worst sixth sense.
When everyone arrived near the moat, Gu Feixue finally understood why there were no soldiers nearby. It turned out that the soldiers were sweating profusely here, pretending to be strong.
The towering shelves rose from the ground, and pieces of wood were embedded in the wall one by one. Everyone was still busy and working hard. Su Xipo's mouth trembled when he saw this.
He was frightened by the manpower and resources as well as the crazy people.
"Miss Gu, it's probably not advisable to stay here for long. Jiangzhou is probably doomed now. Let's leave."
The power of mankind is like a drop in the bucket, like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Gu Feixue stared at the dam that was about to burst. On the dam, there was a group of young and strong men holding hands, using their bodies to protect the moat embankment that was about to collapse.
At this moment, Gu Feixue saw Zheng Yannian and Gu Tingchuan. They were both busy directing and commanding, and they were too busy to keep up. When they saw Gu Feixue coming back, they had no time to say hello.
Immediately afterwards, Gu Feixue saw Yuchi Shuo standing at the highest point.
He was ready to give up.
Gu Feixue saw him approaching the center step by step.
He waved his arms hard at him, but there was a huge crowd below, and no matter what Gu Feixue did, Yuchi Shuo could not hear it.
At this moment, Gu Feixue also saw her father and mother. Her wife was also directing people to do things. As for her father, he was the same fearless as before. Facing the natural disasters and man-made disasters, he had a rough sentiment of living and dying together and fighting against heaven and earth.
"Hurry, how do we get up there? Hurry!" Gu Feixue asked.
Someone hurriedly took her onto the shelf. At this moment, the surging flood was constantly hitting the moat embankment. The wooden shelf on the dam was shaking and could collapse at any time. As for the men holding hands, they were the backbone of the force, but they could no longer bear it.
Their fate and the fate of the dam have become one.
Yuchi Shuo waited for several days. He waited for Gu Feixue's parents who had come from thousands of miles away, and waited for people from several nearby counties, but he didn't wait for Gu Feixue.
He had tried every possible means and knew that at this point, either the whole army would be wiped out or he would escape.
He could only choose the latter.
"Have all the disaster victims left the city?" Yuchi Shuo asked before making his first move. Someone below him had already sent a message, "All the disaster victims started evacuating yesterday, and now the elderly, weak, women, and children who were there have also left."
Hearing this, he nodded silently.
The man stepped back.
Everyone's eyes were focused on him.
"I declare..." Although he was reluctant, he had no other choice.
At this moment, Gu Feixue had already approached Yuchi Shuo.
