Chapter 11125
Zhengjiacun, reservoir.
After Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang left the Taoist Temple, they went straight to the upstream reservoir.
Compared to Zhengjia Village, the location of this reservoir is higher.
Zhengjia Village is backed by a mountain, and the reservoir is at the foot of the mountain. The water area of the reservoir is actually not very large. After all, this is a reservoir at the foot of the mountain, not a lake in the plains.
However, this reservoir is so deep that there is no bottom. Ever since people began to appear at the foot of Mianniu Mountain, no one has ever seen this reservoir dry up.
In other words, this reservoir has never dried up. Even in a severe drought year, the riverbed and pond dams dry up to pieces of pond mud, like rolled fish scales, but a certain amount of water remains in this reservoir. The water level is high, and the water level cannot be reached to the bottom even if you use a five- to six-meter-long bamboo pole to probe the bottom of the reservoir.
At this moment, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang also arrived at the reservoir.
Beside the reservoir, people from three floors inside and three floors outside looked strange. There were men, women, young and old, adults and children, and even the family dog was brought here.
However, unlike humans who are curious about the reservoir, although the dogs also came, they stood far away and did not dare to come forward.
There were even many dogs barking in the direction of the reservoir from a long distance away.
But because there was a lot of people and it was raining lightly, the barking of the dogs was quickly covered by the noise.
Seeing so many people gathered here to watch the fun, some villagers who thought they were brave even climbed to the dam at the edge of the reservoir and looked down, pointing at the surging water in the reservoir...
Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang looked at each other, and they both frowned at the same time.
"This cannot continue. The villagers must be evacuated first." Yang Ruoqing said.
Luo Fengtang nodded, "I'm going to find Li Zheng and the village elders from several villages."
Soon, Yang Huazhong, Li Zheng from Zhengjia Village, and the village elders from the two villages came over. Yang Ruoqing Tell them the situation.
I didn’t say anything too specific, I just told them: “Hurry up and evacuate the villagers. No more gathering around the reservoir to watch the excitement. Don’t go to the waterside today and tomorrow. Try to pack up your valuable belongings and run to the mountains. !”
Luo Fengtang added, “Don’t run in this direction. Director Yuan asked everyone to run over there.”
Luo Fengtang pointed to the other side of the mountain.
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, a little surprised.
"Why do you have to go over there instead of being close? Can't you go to the mountains behind here?" A village elder was puzzled.
Luo Fengtang shook his head: "Listen to Taoist Yuan and don't run around."
The several village elders nodded and hurried to follow the instructions to the villagers in their respective villages.
Most of the villagers were obedient and ran home to clean up after hearing the instructions.
However, some villagers did not take it seriously and had no respect for the flood. They procrastinated and stayed near the reservoir without going home to pack their things.
For these people, Yang Ruoqing is too lazy to pay attention. There are always idiots who want to pay IQ tax.
In Zhengjia Village.
Many smart people packed up their things and took their families to escape in the direction of the mountain directed by Yuan Daozhang.
But some people didn't listen and went up the hillside behind the village.
"Why do you have to run so far? Not to mention that when the water gets wet, the water flows into the river below. Even if you really come to our village, why should we go to the mountainside behind the village and get rid of the ball easily?"
In this way, the villagers of Zhengjia Village were divided into two. Some people obeyed and took refuge in the mountains farther west, while some people went up the back mountains according to their own ideas.
The same is true for the villagers in Yujia Village and Hejia Village nearby.
When the news reached Changping Village, the villagers in Changping Village had four options.
On the basis of the above two escape options, Changping Village has a third option, which is to escape in the direction of the town. There are also some people who firmly believe that the village will not be flooded. They say that there is no precedent for floods in the first month of the year, which is definitely a false alarm...
Sun family.
"How can this be done? There are more than 40 pigs of all sizes in our pig farm. Where do we have to drive them?"
"Towards the town. Right? "
"If the water really comes down, there is no point in rushing towards the town, the water will chase it!"
"Why don't we drive to the west hilltop? Taoist priest Yuan asked us to go there." People from Jia Village and our Changping Village can all go to the grassland." Yang Ruoqing came over and told everyone the news.
"Go to the pasture, walk around, and clean up quickly!"
Facts have proved that a flood that may break out at any time is like a testing stone, which can be tested in one go The execution ability and judgment ability of the villagers.
In Yang Ruoqing's eyes, this should also be a screening.
The Luo family did not move because the terrain of the Luo family was high, and the terrain of the Luo family's backyard was higher than that of the front yard.
Not only that, the Luo family has a rockery. There is not only a pavilion on the rockery, but also a house for leisure and rest.
The house is not big, but it has three rooms and a study room. If a few small houses on the rockery of the Luo family can be flooded, then it is estimated that the entire Shiliba Village will be covered with water. In the vast ocean, the roofs of every house are probably sunk to the bottom of the water.
That kind of scene is almost impossible to happen. After all, all the water sources that may cause harm here are in the reservoir next to Zhengjia Village.
Even if the reservoir is turned upside down, the water will collect in low-lying areas.
The Luo family will not move, but the Sun family, the third bedroom, and the old Yang family's old house will all have to move.
Everyone is packing, mainly money, bedding and cotton-padded clothes.
I can’t carry other things, I can only hope for a miracle to happen.
On the other side, they were actively making preparations. On the other side, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang found Daochang Yuan again. After careful discussion, Daochang Yuan finally decided to solve the immediate hidden danger first.
As for the future... we will have to think about things in the future!
He handed something in a wooden box to Yang Ruoqing without saying anything.
Yang Ruoqing didn't ask anything, took the thing, and left the Taoist temple with Luo Fengtang.
Whether this flood can be resolved depends on whether this thing can work!
The light rain continued until the evening. Suddenly, clouds began to appear in the sky again. The sky became darker and darker, with lightning and thunder.
“Most of the villagers have moved away, only a few are still stranded in the village.”
On the way to the Zhengjiacun Reservoir, Yang Ruoqing met several village elders.
"Well, everything that needs to be conveyed has been conveyed, and there is nothing you can do if you don't listen!"
"How is the reservoir above?"
"As long as there is lightning and thunder, the reservoir Just make a fuss!”
“Let’s go and have a look!”
On their way to the reservoir, Yang Ruoqing and the others met villagers running up from above. They were in a panic and said with pale faces: "Oh no, someone was swept down by something in the reservoir!"
Things in the reservoir?
Everyone’s expressions changed. When everyone arrived at the reservoir as quickly as possible, the scene in front of them shocked them!
