Zhang Xiaoying originally planned to find an opportunity to put the medicinal materials in the space and travel lightly, but she didn't expect that Doctor Huang would also go.
Zhang Xiaoying selected some medicinal materials that were more likely to be used and took the first step.
"Life waits for no one. I'll hurry over first. Doctor Huang, it's difficult to drive in the rain. You mainly focus on safety. It doesn't hurt to go slower. Be careful about whether there are landslides on the road!"
Zhang Xiaoying carried the medicinal materials wrapped in oilcloth on her back and left in a hurry after saying this.
Slippery slope? Another word I have never heard of.
Yu Yang was thoughtful.
He is a master who really hides a lot of secrets!
However, Yu Yang quickly put aside this idea and discussed the flood discharge with the county magistrate.
This is Zhang Xiaoying’s first time to go to Shixi Town.
Most of the rice fields seen on the road were submerged by the floods, and not even the seedlings could be seen.
Zhang Xiaoying sighed, farmers depend on the weather for their livelihood, and when faced with such a natural disaster, they don’t know how they will survive.
The potatoes grown by Xu Qinglin have a very high yield per acre. He originally planned to sell the potatoes to restaurants, but now it seems that this may not be possible.
To be fair, after Zhang Xiaoying came to Dafu Village, except for people like Jiang who always targeted her, the other villagers were very honest. Seeing that she was different from before, they forgave the original owner for what she had done before without saying a word.
Whenever something happens to the Xu family, the villagers are eager to help.
Now their rice fields are flooded, and even if the late rice is sown again, it will not be able to catch up, so other grains must be planted in the fields.
But in this era, no matter what kind of food is produced, Zhang Xiaoying plans to give some of the potatoes at home to the villagers as seeds, and let Xu Qinglin teach them how to grow them. At least, the harvest will be high, and the year will be able to pass by tightening the belt.
.
But elsewhere Zhang Xiaoying was helpless.
Watching the heavy rain these days, Zhang Xiaoying also feels powerless.
No matter how powerful she is compared to people of this era, she is not a natural opponent.
In front of nature, she is as insignificant as dust. When natural disasters strike, she can do nothing but protect herself, let alone stop them.
Even the top water superpowers in the last days joining forces cannot quell the floods and mudslides.
Several parts of the official road to Shixi Town have been buried by landslides.
Doctor Huang and the others want to enter Shixi Town. Unless there are other roads that have not been buried, they will have to wait until the road is opened before they can enter Shixi Town.
When Zhang Xiaoying arrived at Shixi Town, she found that the damage here was too severe.
The flood discharge from Guangxing River will not reach here, but flash floods broke out here, and many houses in the town were washed away. Fortunately, there were no casualties.
Zhang Xiaoying asked people about the two villages that were flooded by mudslides.
When the old woman saw that Zhang Xiaoying was unfamiliar and she was a woman, she couldn't help but sigh, "What are you doing there? Are there any relatives there? You'd better not go. I'm afraid there won't be any survivors in those two villages. Alas!"
"I see there aren't many men in town. Where are they?"
"We've all gone to save people, but no one has come back yet. Sister, you're not too young anymore. You won't be able to help much if you go there. It might even hinder the young people from saving people. Why don't you stay here first?"
In town?"
"I'm a doctor, and I'm also here to save people." Zhang Xiaoying patted the big bundle behind her, "By the way, sister, remember to tell the people in town later that you don't drink raw water, it's best to boil it.
Drink it again, otherwise you will easily contract the plague."
"Will boiling water not cause plague?"
"Yes, because people or livestock will definitely be drowned in such a flood. Being soaked in the water for a long time will make the water unclean, and people will get sick if they drink it directly."
"Are you really a doctor?"
The old woman looked at Zhang Xiaoying suspiciously.
She hasn’t seen a female doctor yet!
Zhang Xiaoying: "..."
She was rushing to save people.
"Sister, forget it if you don't believe me. Can you please tell me how to get to those two villages? I have to send the medicine there early, maybe it can be used to save people."
The old woman still wanted to talk about something. Seeing that Zhang Xiaoying insisted on going her own way, she pointed the way to Zhang Xiaoying, "Why don't you, a big girl, listen to others? If anything happens to you, don't regret it..."
"I know, thank you, eldest sister. Also, eldest sister, you'd better find someone to call back the people who went to rescue people. There won't be only one landslide. As long as the rain doesn't stop, there will be a second one. It's very dangerous!
I will go to Qingshan Village first, and when I see people, I will call them back!"
After saying that, Zhang Xiaoying walked towards Qingshan Village.
The old woman stared blankly at Zhang Xiaoying's back. After a while, a younger woman came out.
"Mom, I think this aunt is right, why don't we find someone to call them back?" the woman said.
The old woman made sense after thinking about it, "Go quickly!"
…
It is not difficult for Zhang Xiaoying to climb over mountains and ridges.
She soon arrived at Qingshan Village.
Zhang Xiaoying had never seen Qingshan Village before, but now she could only stand on a high place and look at Qingshan Village in the quagmire.
Zhang Xiaoying jumped down.
She didn't see anyone on the way here. She thought she came because the roads in Qingshan Village were blocked and they couldn't enter, so they chose another village.
Zhang Xiaoying put away the medicinal materials and came to the village.
She jumped onto the roof that had not yet been flooded, and while listening for signs of life, she shouted loudly: "Is there anyone alive?"
In a mudslide in the middle of the night, the villagers didn't even have a chance to escape, and the chance of anyone being alive was too small.
Zhang Xiaoying still wants to give it a try, in case someone is lucky?
If you can save one, it counts!
"Anyone?"
Zhang Xiaoying quickly walked through Qingshan Village and found nothing.
Zhang Xiaoying frowned. Just when she was about to concentrate again to see if she could find anyone alive, she suddenly heard a movement.
She followed the sound and saw two embarrassed young men coming down a hillside. When she saw Zhang Xiaoying, she immediately shouted, "Come back quickly, don't go there, someone will be killed, come back quickly!"
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoying jumped up and landed in front of the two of them easily.
The two of them were startled.
"You, are you a human or a ghost?"
"Have you ever seen a ghost come out in broad daylight?"
Zhang Xiaoying was not angry.
She looked the two young men up and down and said, "Are you here from the town to save people?"
"No, we are from Qingshan Village." said the taller young man.
"Have everyone in the village escaped?" Zhang Xiaoying was shocked, because she did not see sadness or numbness on the young man's face, which could only mean that the people in Qingshan Village had escaped!
"Thanks to our village chief, he told us yesterday afternoon that when he was very young, the village suffered a landslide. People of his generation said that it rained heavily for several days during the landslide. The village chief said that he watched the rain
I felt uneasy, so we were told to pack up and move elsewhere before dark."
Another person said: "I didn't expect that the village chief really expected it. In the middle of the night last night, a landslide occurred and our village was all buried. Fortunately, I listened to the village chief's words, otherwise I would have been..."
