"At that time, I was instructing the villagers to strengthen the river embankment. When I walked here, I saw a crack several meters long suddenly appeared on the river embankment. Then the crack became bigger and bigger, and finally the embankment burst.
"
"A crack several meters long?"
Li Yuyan's pupils shrank suddenly, and a look of shock emerged!
How can this be?
The river embankment is so strong that even if it is hit by a boulder, there will be no cracks several meters long.
Moreover, even months of continuous storms are not enough to cause cracks in this riverbank!
Unless someone deliberately sabotages it!
Thinking of this possibility, Li Yuyan quickly turned to look at Gao Jin.
"What do you think about this matter?"
Li Yuyan asked.
His heart was beating fast and his eyes were fixed on Gao Jin.
Gao Jin thought for a long time and suddenly said:
"I think someone destroyed the embankment on purpose!"
Hearing this, Li Yuyan finally let go of her worries!
It turns out Gao Jin had the same guess!
The two looked at each other, immediately lowered their waists, and quietly explored the river embankment.
Lin Xiao also moved closer to the two of them and looked towards the river embankment.
Gao Jin looked at the uneven areas on the river embankment, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in deep thought:
"These depressions were obviously dug out with a sharp tool, and the chisel dug very deep, at least three to four centimeters!"
Lin Xiao also noticed those traces and couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.
The marks carved out by a chisel look like someone has chiseled it out repeatedly, and the depth of the chisel is astonishing.
It was obvious that this man was working very hard, and it could even be said that he was using all his strength to dig.
Why did this person do this?
Are you looking for something in the river embankment?
Lin Xiao suddenly had such an idea in his mind.
"The purpose of the person who dug the river embankment is very simple. He is to dig through the river embankment, thereby creating the illusion that the river embankment has burst, so as to cover up the traces he left!"
At this time, Li Yuyan, who had been observing the condition of the river embankment, suddenly spoke.
"Are you so sure?"
Lin Xiao was stunned when he heard this and looked at Li Yuyan.
He nodded: "Why else would this man spend so much effort digging the river embankment?"
"Maybe you're looking for something?"
Lin Xiao said unwillingly.
For some reason, she especially wanted to confront Li Yuyan today.
Li Yuyan sighed helplessly:
"What can be hidden in the river bank? Apart from mud, mud, what else can be hidden?"
Lin Xiao was suddenly speechless and had to shut her mouth silently.
"Doesn't this person know that once the river embankment breaks, it will cause a devastating blow to Linjia Village downstream?"
Gao Jin asked.
"I must know. I think his main purpose of digging the river embankment is to destroy Linjia Village!"
Li Yuyan said decisively.
Gao Jin was speechless for a while:
"What is the deep grudge between this man and Linjiacun? How could he be so ruthless?"
These words awakened the dreamer.
Lin Xiao's heart was shocked, and a person's name appeared in her mind.
Lin Da!
Li Yuyan saw something strange in Lin Xiao's expression and asked:
"Do you know who it is?"
Lin Xiao nodded: "Lin Da!"
After listening to Lin Xiao's analysis, Li Yuyan felt that it was Lin Da without a doubt, and a look of indignation appeared on his face.
This Lin Da is really too much!
"Lin Da is a very insidious person. He didn't kill you this time. I'm afraid he may have another trick up his sleeve."
Gao Jin had dealings with Lin Da, and it was he who tipped off Gao Jin and others, who were originally bandits, and asked them to kidnap Lin Xiao and Yu Xilin!
Li Yuyan snorted coldly:
"This man is narrow-minded, cruel and cunning! I think he just wants to take the opportunity to get rid of you!"
Gao Jin nodded:
"Not only do I want to take this opportunity to get rid of you, Lin Xiao, I also want to drag the whole village to bury you with you!"
After hearing this, Lin Xiao couldn't help but take a breath:
"No, I have to go back and tell everyone quickly so that they can be alert!"
Gao Jin stopped Lin Xiao:
"Lin Xiao, I think it's better for you not to be impulsive. The enemy is in the dark and we are in the open. If you go there rashly, you will only lose your life in vain!"
"Then what should I do? Sit back and wait for death?"
Lin Xiao stomped her feet angrily, but there was nothing she could do.
She is not afraid that Lin Da will deal with her, but she is afraid that Lin Da will point the finger at the entire villagers of Linjia Village!
Gao Jin thought for a moment, then saw the wound on Lin Xiao's arm, and his eyes lit up:
"If you put yourself to death and survive, maybe we can try this method!"
Gao Jin shared his thoughts with Lin Xiao and Li Yuyan.
The two of them supported this plan with both hands and feet!
…
In order to rebuild their homes as soon as possible, the villagers of Linjia Village are working non-stop to clean up the mud caused by the flood.
In the process, they found the bodies of more than a dozen villagers who were missing in the flood.
The death conditions of these villagers were extremely miserable. Some were smashed all over and dripping with blood; others had their skin and flesh washed out by the flood and their internal organs shattered.
Some women were so frightened that they fainted.
However, the villagers of Linjia Village did not shrink back, but worked even harder.
Because they know that they have no choice but to go on step by step.
Even if there is a fire pit in front of them, they must step on it!
Because as long as they have hope of rebuilding their homeland, they will have the courage to continue living and the confidence to rise again!
The villagers in Linjia Village were working hard, while the brothers in the brother's workshop set up a shelf and stewed a large pot of food on the spot. The aroma of the food wafted in the air, making the villagers feel their appetite increased.
They haven't had hot rice for a long time, and they can finally try it this time.
Their hearts were filled with excitement.
They believe that as long as they survive this difficult period, they will be able to rebuild their homes and no longer have to worry about floods.
While the villagers were eagerly waiting for the meal, Gao Jin hurriedly ran from the river and shouted:
"Help! Go find the doctor quickly! Lin Xiao is dying!"
"Go and call the doctor quickly! Lin Xiao won't be able to hold on any longer!"
When the villagers heard the sound, they hurriedly dropped their work and ran towards Gao Jin. Their faces were full of worry, and they asked all kinds of questions:
"Master Gao Da, are you telling the truth? Xiao Linzi is really dying?"
Gao Jin's face was full of anxiety:
"We were checking the river embankment just now. Who knew that the wound on his arm suddenly broke out and he fell down right in front of our eyes? Hurry, call the doctor!"
As soon as Gao Jin finished speaking, he saw not far away, Li Yuyan hugged the lifeless Lin Xiao with a face filled with sorrow, and walked towards the crowd.
"Xiao Linzi? Xiao Linzi?"
When the village chief saw Lin Xiao's condition, he almost collapsed to the ground.
