The peaceful streets of the past are no longer visible.
The rain surged in the middle of the night, and many people were still asleep. Many people didn't react until the water spread in the room.
Although the response from above was timely, they immediately organized manpower to evacuate the people.
But there are still many people missing and trapped.
The heavy rain seemed to be mixed with countless cries and shouts.
"Mayor Zheng, you have not rested all day and night, you will not be able to hold on."
In the heavy rain, the secretary could only speak by shouting.
With half of his body immersed in the water, Zheng Xihe personally carried an old man out of the house and put him on a small kayak.
"No, time is of the essence now. The level is still rising. We must seize the time..."
Suddenly, a bright light flashed in the sky, illuminating the dark sky, followed by a huge thunder, boom, boom, boom...
It seemed like a doomsday carnival had begun.
The rain increased again, and it was hazy, with visibility no more than three meters away.
This once again makes the rescue more difficult.
Still, the bad news is far from over.
"The embankment was washed away." The secretary hurriedly told Mayor Zheng the news.
At this moment, carrying the terrifying sound of waves crashing, the huge torrent came closer and closer.
Not far away, I just took the child off the roof, and before I could put it into the kayak, the strong impact of the yellow mud water directly overturned the person and the kayak.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..Mom..." The child, who was several years old, was rushed out and ran far away in the blink of an eye.
The child was frightened and slapped hard in the water, and his body was constantly being pressed by the water waves.
Without thinking, Zheng Xihe immediately jumped into the water, jumped over like a dog, and grabbed the child in his hand as he passed by.
But he was also rushed out.
He used all his strength to lift the child above the water, but he choked several mouthfuls of sewage and his lungs were burning.
Huge waves of water hit his back, shaking his internal organs as if they were displaced.
Zheng Xihe already felt that he was starting to run out of energy. He was already overtired, and he could only hold on until now by holding on with just one breath.
Tired to the extreme, Zheng Xihe suddenly felt like giving up.
With a jolt, he came back to his senses instantly, no, he couldn't give up.
Once it sinks, not only him but also the child above his head will be unable to come back up.
Zheng Xihe bit the tip of his tongue hard, and the severe pain gave him a little strength.
He spotted a certain tree branch and threw it hard, and the child was thrown onto the trunk.
This throw, which took all his energy in his life, really did not let him down.
Seeing the child hugging the tree trunk and climbing up another section, Zheng Xihe's mouth showed a faint smile, completely exhausted.
"Save him quickly, someone come and save him..." People trapped on various high-rise buildings cried, but they could only stretch out their hands and grab nothing. They watched helplessly as he was washed away.
"Plop"
Someone jumped into the water, and then one person jumped into the water after another.
They held hands and formed a human wall with their bodies.
The moment Zheng Xihe Sui Liu rushed down, he blocked his Sui Liu momentum.
This scene is just a microcosm of this city.
Natural disasters are merciless, but humans are sentimental.
Human beings appear extremely small in the face of terrible disasters.
But their noble and fearless sentiments appear so great.
When Bai Ruang arrived at Tong County with ten carts of supplies, the gap in the collapsed dam had expanded to a full fifty meters long.
Countless soldiers came from all directions, reloading their weapons and going into battle again and again. Their legs were soaked until they were swollen, and the skin under their feet was scratched with flesh and blood by sharp stone tree branches.
But they remained silent.
In this scene, the redundancy of dialogue is shocking.
He is a young man from a rich and wealthy family, and his main concern is deception and scheming.
Even between parents and siblings, there is no pure relationship, but more of a union of interests.
But now, groups of strangers are working hard for other people's lives and property, even putting their own lives and safety at risk.
Emotions are contagious.
Perhaps the man in front of him was once fierce and vicious, but now he is desperately trying to save other people's lives.
Maybe after the flood, he will be the hateful villain again, but now his shining point has also illuminated the lives of others.
Sangsang stared blankly, her mind churning endlessly.
She seemed to understand, maybe she understood a little bit, why the tribesmen were willing to dry up their spiritual power and cease to exist for the sake of these Blue Star people, but they still had to protect them.
While Bai Fan was not paying attention and no one was around to see it, Sangsang threw the plastic ball in the nylon bag into the muddy water.
The roiling torrent instantly submerged the plastic ball and disappeared.
———
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...Mom, Dad..." Lexing looked in the distance, crying so hard that she was out of breath.
Just now, his parents took the initiative to let go of their hands and let the torrent wash them away.
When the floods surged, his family was unlucky and their residence was located in a low-lying area.
I could only stand on the roof and watch the torrent submerge the house and rush the whole family out in an instant.
For several ups and downs, the three members of their family never let go of their hands.
When they were lucky, a big tree stood in front of them.
Le Xing could recognize that this tree was a famous old tree, and there were many red silk hanging on the branches.
The tree is about six or seven meters tall, but now only the top section is exposed above the water.
Le Xing's father worked hard, planed hard, and finally grabbed a section of the branch, and threw his wife and child over with all his strength.
Just when they thought they could take a breath, the branches they grabbed made a clicking sound.
Le Xing's father looked down and his face turned pale with horror.
The branch could not withstand the pulling force of three people, and cracks had appeared.
Le Xing's father and mother looked at each other, and their expressions suddenly calmed down.
The two of them looked deeply at Lexing, as if they wanted to carve their son's face into their hearts.
Le Xing's father: "Son, you must study hard in the future and stop being willful." Without the escape route of mom and dad, everything can only be done by yourself.
Le Xing's mother: "Son, you should eat well in the future, don't stay up late, and exercise more. Don't be impulsive and think more about things." Don't be bullied if you don't have your parents to protect you.
With a lot of reluctance, the parents released their grip on the branches and said, "Son, live well."
"No, no, don't leave me."
The parents holding hands were instantly carried away by the torrent and disappeared.
Lexing also wanted to let go of her hands holding the branches, and just chased her parents away.
But after letting go a few times, he still held me tightly.
Because this is the chance of life that his parents gave him with their lives.
When he heard the thin cracking sound again, Lexing didn't feel scared at all, but felt a little happy.
Just when the branches were completely broken by the current, Le Xing felt that his body submerged in the water was touched by something cold.
Subconsciously, he reached out and grabbed a colorful plastic ball out of the water.
