In the small front fort, as long as the villagers could carry tools, they all stood on the fort wall. Hundreds of people were wearing raincoats and standing silently.
This is a habit that every human fort in Yinling has developed in the harsh living environment. Under abnormal weather, they will stand on the fort wall and stand ready. There are too many such cases in the past history. Monsters take advantage of the weather cover to sneak up
If you touch the human fort, you may injure someone, or you may lose the fort, so no one dares to be careless.
Everyone feels a little heavy, because no one dares to say how much of their efforts will be left after such a heavy rain; no one is sure whether the canals can be started on time after the rainy season, but one thing is,
Spring is out of the question. It will be summer at the earliest. It also depends on how damaged the previous projects are?
Decades of hope have been ruthlessly postponed by God. If there is no channel opening, it may not matter. But once people have hope, the disappointment will be even greater, so unforgettable that they cannot extricate themselves.
They dug out that big hole one by one. How much effort they put into it back then makes them feel so sad now.
Among the crowd on the wall, the three sisters-in-law of the Jiang family were also among them. Even if they were women, they could not stay away from the incident at this moment.
Jiang Hanshi murmured in a low voice, "Sir, he hasn't been back for two days."
Jiang Lin comforted himself, "Sir, he is a cultivator. The heavy rain will not affect him, right?"
Jiang Bai sighed. She had to remind the two sisters, "Sooner or later, you knew it very well at the beginning. Why are you worrying about gains and losses now?"
The three of them stopped talking. Yes, they will leave sooner or later, so why be reluctant to leave? After all, it is just a transaction.
Already, they have given everything, and now it depends on whether he is willing to lend a hand when the children grow up.
There is no contract and no documents. In the Yinling Wasteland, all you have to rely on is your most basic credibility. In this regard, the Quanzhen Sect has a pretty good reputation.
As a member of the Quanzhen Sect, Mr. Hou, after getting along with him these days, they can fully feel that he always practices what he preaches; he is a very good and meticulous person.
Except for some weird little hobbies, such as pruning their hair... I have to prune them after every play in the water.
I heard him say that this is a habit he developed after being subjected to habitual torture, and he is a bit obsessive-compulsive.
But the strange thing is habits, people are still very reliable; I just don’t know if they will be pruned more frequently in the future when water becomes more convenient?
Or, there will be no chance again? I heard people say that weeds will grow stronger after being pruned from time to time. If this is true, wouldn’t it be embarrassing for a person...
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, the clouds are drooping, and even if it is already midnight, there is not much sight of dawn; the vision cannot reach far, and it begins to become blurry dozens of feet away. Fortunately, no monsters take advantage of the chaos to attack, at least
Not yet, now that the darkest dawn has passed, the possibility of monsters attacking next will be greatly reduced.
Just when the people of Xiaoqianbao breathed a sigh of relief, an accident happened; a dull sound of rumbling came from far away. At first, it was still vague and was hidden under the sound of rain and thunder, but gradually it began to change.
It became clearer, getting closer and closer, and the sound became louder and louder, as if there were thousands of wild beasts running!
Heavy rain triggered a tide of beasts? What should we do? Everyone's eyes showed despair. Under such a tide of beasts, humans had no chance in the face of violent beasts.
The direction of the sound was towards the small front fort! The entire fort wall seemed to be shaking, and even unstable bricks began to fall. They knew that danger was coming, but they didn't even have the courage to escape.
There is no way to escape. Is there anything more desperate than this? I can only hold the weapon in my hand tightly, try to open my eyes wide, and look under the dark fortress wall, in the heavy rain like a waterfall, who will escape?
What kind of monster can come out? Even if you go to the underworld, at least you will know what monster you died in?
Saw it!
Three upright walking monsters came running towards me with weird postures and ridiculous behavior. They were strutting in an unusual way... They should be monsters similar to apes, right? After all, most of the Yinling beasts are here.
After running, you are always on all fours. What do you do with your remaining limbs? Do you wave?
Getting closer, these three things are really strange, they are still wearing clothes? The beast is running around in clothes (this chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 138 Flooded Suqiu
Are you afraid of throwing yourself when you run? Are you waiting for a ride?
The rain was too heavy and the eyesight of ordinary people was very limited. It was not until the three monsters were passing by Xiaoqian Fort that everyone suddenly discovered the truth. They were not ape monsters, but three human beings!
"It's sir!" Jiang Hanshi's eyes were the most poisonous.
"Are they being chased by a herd of beasts? Should we let them in?" Jiang Lin's heart was the softest.
"They are passing by, not entering the castle!" Jiang Bai was the most sensible person.
Everyone's despair was instantly replaced by curiosity. Of course they knew that these three people would appear at the construction site every day throughout the winter. They were the three patrols of the Quanzhen Sect!
Even they are running for their lives, so what is chasing them?
Everyone turned their attention behind the three people, and the sound became clearer. It was the sound of a group of beasts running away, rumbling and deafening!
Almost in an instant, a white line appeared in everyone's sight, two feet high, surging, like a giant dragon, opening its mouth to devour everything in front of it!
It's not a herd of beasts or monsters, it's a flood! It's rushing forward along the old river. The old river is like a relic left by the dragon decades ago, now being resurrected with full blood under the rain!
The onlookers exclaimed, no one expected that such a thing would happen. Are these three patrols offending the Bailian River God and being chased by the River God?
In the collective confusion, the three patrolling figures had long since disappeared. They plunged into the large hole dug by the people in Xiaoqianbao with their heads high, as if they had fallen. After a few breaths, they climbed out with their heads high.
It was higher, roaring and chasing the Taoist away.
What remains in everyone's sight is the seemingly endless body of the giant dragon, rolling in turbid waves, rushing forward one after another.
The terrifying sound they heard was the sound of the river rushing forward, but they had not heard this sound for too long, and it had long become a distant memory, indifferent and without trace.
"What's going on? Is it a major flood? Will the Xiaoqianbao be flooded?" Some people are worried. "Is this intentional by the patrolling adults? Or is the Bailian River bursting its embankments and collapsing?" This person still has some sense.
of.
"At least the puddle is full, so you don't have to worry about water for half a year, right?" This is an optimist who thinks of the best when things go wrong.
But an old voice revealed the essence of the matter, "I understand! I understand! Why is it that Mr. Hou is never in a hurry to arrange canal digging? It turns out that he is not digging canals at all; he is
I want to change the course of the Bailian River back to its flow direction a hundred years ago!
Xiaoqianbao has been saved! No matter what happens in the future, we no longer have to worry about water sources! Because the Bailian River passes in front of the fort!
We no longer have to work hard to get water, and we no longer have to spend the day in filth. We have plenty of water, so we can use it as we want!”
Mr. Jiang cried and knelt down on the wall. The villagers who finally understood also knelt down and praised loudly. At this moment, Mr. Hou is the god in their hearts!
