Chapter 498 You Are a Hero
Li Jinxing asked someone to distribute the supplies quickly. At this time, food, drinking water, etc. were everywhere.
Local officials came to receive them: "The hotel has been arranged for you, so I'll send you there."
Su Cen shook his head: "No need, go to the river to take a look first."
This is even more serious than she expected.
"We received the message, prepared in advance, and minimized the losses."
People living near the disaster area were evacuated. Standing on the river bank, you could see many houses and a large area of crops.
The flood was like a beast, and the river had already spread to the shore, and the officers and soldiers filled bags of sand to the river.
Large trucks filled in, which was just temporary flood control.
The water level is getting higher and higher, and the dam may burst at any time.
There are villages by the river. Once the defense is broken here, the water will flood the villages and towns on the shore, and many people's homes are flooded.
Su Cen noticed that a transparent soul stood by the river, watching the turbulent water flow, and was so anxious that it was spinning.
He was a fifteen-year-old boy who was wet and dripping with water all over his body. He had been talking to someone, trying to make people discover him, but no one paid attention to him.
The boy walked around the shore in frustration.
Su Cen walked over and asked, "What do you want to say?"
Finally someone paid attention to him. The boy wiped his tears excitedly and was anxious: "I think this will be impossible to block it, I want them to think of other ways. My house is below. Once the dam collapses, the house will be flooded.
, the pigs, chickens, ducks and pigs at home will be washed away, and all the newly grown cotton will be compensated."
That was his home, and there was still a year of harvest. Once he didn't hold it, it would be gone.
There are still thousands of families like him who will be washed away.
Su Cen comforted: "Don't worry, your home will not be flooded."
The boy was very happy: "Really?"
"With me here, I will protect this area." Su Cen looked sympathetic: "When the water here recedes, you can go to the underworld to report!"
The boy was stunned and his heart skipped: "What?"
Su Cen sighed: "You are just a soul now."
The fifteen-year-old boy stood there blankly, still unwilling to believe it.
It turned out that these people didn't ignore him and thought he was annoyed, and they didn't know his existence at all.
"Am I... dead?"
He stretched out his hand, his pale and transparent hand was still flowing on the ground. This forced him to face the fear in his heart.
I am still so young, why is it gone?
He finally remembered that he saw someone struggling in the water not long ago, and he jumped into the water to save people without having time to think about anything.
I remember that after dragging five people to the shore in a row, I had no strength and the water washed him away. He became more and more tired and gave up struggling.
Why did he appear here?
Looking at the roaring river, he felt so cold!
It turned out that he had washed away the water and never climbed up again.
"I saw someone struggling in the water, washed away by the flowing water. I could swim, so I went to save people. After saving one, I found that four people were trapped there."
Su Cen looked at the man who had not realized that he had disappeared, and there was a trace of merit on his body.
Su Cen: "You are a hero."
A person who is still so young has just begun his life and has passed away like this.
For those who are rescued, grace is as heavy as a mountain and it will be difficult to repay in this life.
The boy cried fiercely, wiping his tears with his hands: "I don't want to be a hero. I want to live. I want to see the water recede. I want to go home. I want to see my parents."
