Chapter 153: Flood

After hearing this, Tao Qiqi looked at Xiao Hei: "I am in Jinxiang County now."

Xiao Hei: "The master is in Jinxiang County?!"

Tao Qiqi nodded: "How can I lie to you? I'm in Jinxiang County. I was planning to go back to Jiangdu, but when I was in Jinxiang County, the road was flooded and I couldn't go on, so I was

Trapped here."

Immediately, Tao Qiqi told Xiao Hei about the situation in Jinxiang County, and also informed Xiao Hei about the letter.

After listening to Tao Qiqi's words, Xiao Hei said: "In that case, then I will go to Jinxiang County to meet the master. Let's see what Mr. Nan's plan is. Then we will decide how to act. Our food is also

It can’t be given away for free. And the method of raising donations the master mentioned is very good.”

Tao Qiqi thought about it and said, "I'll try to see if I can take you out of the space directly. This will save you the trouble of running away again."

After hearing this, Xiao Hei's eyes lit up, "Try it."

She said she would try, so she tried, and then Tao Qiqi hugged Xiao Hei and used her mind to leave the space.

But after leaving the space, Xiao Hei, who was originally holding Tao Qiqi in her arms, did not come out with her.

And when Xiao Hei uses his skills to exit the space, he can only exit to the place where he originally entered the space.

One person and one wolf entered the space to meet again.

"It doesn't seem possible."

"Master, this doesn't work. I just tried it myself, and it can only go out to the place where I entered the space."

Tao Qiqi and Xiao Hei said in unison.

Tao Qiqi: "It seems I can only let you have another hard trip and come back by yourself."

Xiao Hei: "It's okay. Fortunately, I'm back in the south now. The weather is not as cold as in the north, and it's not snowing now. I should be able to reach Jinxiang County in one night. I can see the owner outside the space tomorrow morning.

.”

Tao Qiqi: "Okay, after you arrive in Jinxiang County, come to the restaurant to find me."

"good."

After one person and one wolf discussed it, Tao Qiqi left the space and prepared to have breakfast. By the way, she also had to buy breakfast for Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai and bring it to the space to eat together.

After having breakfast, Tao Qiqi was going to go shopping on the street.

Unexpectedly, it suddenly rained again.

In the end, Tao Qiqi and the others had to go back to the room and wait for the rain to stop.

After returning to the room, the group had nothing to do, so they simply played poker.

The upgrade game started.

Four people, two decks of playing cards.

This was prepared by Tao Qiqi long ago.

The purpose is to kill time on the road.

They also taught their mother to play poker with Aunt Jiang, so that when they return to Jiangdu, they can teach their grandparents to play together.

This way you won't be bored at home in the future.

There is no TV or mobile phone at this time, and there is no entertainment at all at home. All I can do is fight at home.

But Tao Qiqi and her family don't have anything to fight for, so wouldn't it be even more boring?

So at this time poker played a big role.

It not only allows the family to pass the time, but also allows the family to entertain themselves. They can also chat while playing cards, talking and laughing to enhance their relationship.

After a day of playing poker in a restaurant, it also rained all day.

Although the rain is not very heavy, it will make the suffering villagers even worse if it rains for a whole day.

Fortunately, in the evening, the rain gradually stopped.

But just when Tao Qiqi and the others were going downstairs to have dinner, they saw water pouring in from the outside on the first floor of the restaurant.

The shops on the first floor of the street do not have thresholds for the convenience of guests' entry and exit.

At most, the pavement is two small steps higher than the road surface.

Now that it has rained continuously, the rainwater on the road cannot be drained well, so it begins to flow into various shops.

Not only the first floor of the restaurant, but also the first floors of all relatively low-lying shops were flooded.

The employees in the restaurant were all anxiously scooping out water with basins or spoons.

But the water scooped out will eventually flow in again, and even the speed of everyone scooping water cannot keep up with the speed of water flowing in.

Seeing that the water on the first floor was getting deeper and deeper, even reaching the ankles, Tao Qiqi hurriedly said: "Use a table to block the entrance first."

When Tao Qiqi said this, the restaurant staff remembered to use the dining table to resist.

Fortunately, the dining tables at this time were either square or rectangular.

Moreover, the doors of the restaurant are all removable one by one, so that the dining table can be locked into the door rails.

"Find some strips of cloth, rags, clothes, etc. to seal the gaps," Tao Qiqi said again.

"Quick, look for it quickly." Manager Wen of the restaurant quickly signaled his employees to look for cloth strips and clothes.

Fortunately, with the method given by Tao Qiqi, no more water came into the restaurant.

After that, the employees continued to scoop water out, and then used rags to suck up all the water in the room.

Tao Qiqi didn't even bother to eat dinner. She looked at Qi Mei and Jiang Su and said, "Mom, Aunt Jiang, you stay in the restaurant while I go to find the county magistrate."

Jiang Su: "I'll go with you."

Tao Qiqi: "No, we don't know what's going on outside right now. It's safer for you to stay in the restaurant. Xiaoyu, take good care of your mother and Aunt Jiang."

After all, the restaurant is only a small second floor. No matter how high the water level rises, the second floor will not be soaked.

After saying that, Tao Qiqi walked to the county government office with her escort.

When we arrived at the gate of the county government office, the gate was actually tightly closed.

Tao Qiqi knocked on the door for a long time before someone came to open it, and even just opened a small gap.

"Who is it?" The person who came to open the door poked his head out, his expression was obviously very dissatisfied, and there were even vegetable leaves left in the corner of his mouth. One look showed that they were still eating calmly at this moment, but they were disturbed by Tao Qiqi.

So I expressed dissatisfaction.

When Tao Qiqi saw this, she said with a dark face: "I'm looking for your county magistrate."

"Our county magistrate is not here."

Tao Qiqi held back the anger in her heart: "Then where did he go?"

"How can we know this?"

Upon hearing this, I knew that the county magistrate was not at home, and he was definitely not going to deal with the current disaster situation.

Otherwise, how could these people eat here calmly and not even know where the county magistrate had gone?

"The streets outside are flooded, does your county magistrate know?"

After hearing what Tao Qiqi said, the person who opened the door looked at the street and found that the street was indeed flooded.

But it did not affect their county offices at all, because the terrain of the county offices was five or six steps higher than the road surface, and only two of them were flooded this time.

So the government official who opened the door said slowly: "The road is just flooded, it doesn't affect anything, there's nothing to make a fuss about."

Snapped--

The gate of the county government office was kicked open by Tao Qiqi.

"Call your county magistrate back for a cup of tea, otherwise he will stop wearing his black gauze hat."

"Who are you? You have such a loud tone. If you say you won't let me wear it, I won't let you wear it." At this time, another man's voice sounded.

When the yamen servant who opened the door just now saw this, he immediately bowed and shouted: "Master Tu, this man..."

"Okay, you have nothing to do here."

"Well, then Lord Tu..."

"Father is taking a rest right now, so I don't want to disturb you. Just leave the affairs here to me."

"Fu Lin, Fu Dong, bring people to invite Master Tu out. Anyone who blocks his way will be killed." Before the so-called Master Tu could speak, Tao Qiqi directly asked his people to invite him.

When Mr. Tu saw this, he immediately stood up to stop him: "Who asked you to break in privately..."

boom--

The sound of a figure being kicked to the ground.

Following the sound, I looked over and saw Mr. Tu spitting out a mouthful of blood.
