Chapter 8 Dayu who controlled floods (Part 1)

"Brother, is it that the small wooden door is broken? We don't seem to have left." Zhi Guoguo looked at the familiar scenery and houses in front of her. They looked similar to the house where Shun lived before.

Madoudou also noticed it. He carefully held Zhiguoguo's hand and walked around in front of the house.

"It's strange, I just called "Open Sesame", why are we still here?" Madoudou took out the wooden door from his trouser pocket and looked at it carefully in his hand.

While the brother and sister were talking, it rained heavily and a flash flood broke out, dragging Madoudou and Zhiguoguo into the rapid flood.

"Help! Help!" Zhi Guoguo cried out in fright.

While Madoudou was holding Zhi Guoguo while swimming, she coaxed Zhi Guoguo, "Sister, don't be afraid, we will be fine. Maybe someone will come to rescue us soon."

At this time, Dayu, who was sitting on a bamboo raft not far away, wearing a raincoat and a cloak, heard Zhiguoguo calling for help in the flood. He struggled to move the bamboo raft towards Madoudou and Zhiguoguo.

.

"Hold on to my pole, hold on tight." Dayu lifted up Madoudou and Zhiguoguo, who were holding on to the bamboo pole, and the brother and sister were finally rescued.

Dayu took off his coir raincoat and put it on Zhi Guoguo. He then took off his cloak and put it on Madou Doudou's head.

Dayu looked at Madoudou and Zhiguoguo up and down, and found that their clothes were different from those he had seen before. He quickly asked Madoudou and Zhiguoguo, "Where are you from, and where are your parents?"

Madoudou wiped the rain off his face, and because of the wind, he held Zhiguoguo in his arms, "Hello, uncle, I am Madoudou, and this is my sister Zhiguoguo. We come from a very far away place.

Our parents are also far away."

Dayu thought that Madoudou and Zhiguoguo were washed down from the upper reaches by the flood. "When the flood recedes, I will take you to find your parents."

Madoudou curiously asked the middle-aged man with a beard in front of him, "Uncle, what's your name?"

Dayu rowed the bamboo pole while talking back to Madou Doudou, "My name is Yu, my home is just upstream of the flood, my father is Gun (gǔn), he is the leader of the Chong tribe, but unfortunately my father died not long ago

Unfortunately, he passed away while controlling the flood at Mount Yu. I was ordered by King Shun to control the flood."

Only then did Madou understand that the uncle who saved them was Dayu, a character from "Dayu Controlled the Floods" that Zhi's mother had told him and Zhi Guoguo in a bedtime story.

"Uncle Yu, how many years have you been controlling floods now?" Madoudou asked Dayu curiously.

Due to the strong flood, the bamboo raft was bumping in the flood. Dayu tried his best to protect the bamboo raft from overturning. "Madoudou, it is more critical now. When we get ashore, we will find a high place and I will explain it to you slowly."

?"

After a bumpy ride, thanks to Dayu's vigorous paddling, their bamboo raft finally landed on a high ground.

Dayu shouted to the tribesmen behind him, "Everyone, rest here for a while and see if there are any fruit to satisfy your hunger around here. Pick some to fill the stomachs of these two little guys first."

The reason why Dayu said this was because he heard Zhiguoguo's stomach growling just now. He said softly to Madoudou and Zhiguoguo. "Now there is a wilderness everywhere, so we have to pick fruits freshly or eat them."

The bark will satisfy your hunger. You can eat some first to cushion your stomach."
