Ling Qingyu stood at the door of the house with a worried expression on his face. It was a heavy rainstorm. If it rained for a few days, I don't know how much the Yangtze River's water might rise.

"Ling masters." Cheng Jia rushed in from the outside wearing her clothes and said: "It's starting to rain heavily in Sichuan and Shu."

"How big? Where?" Ling Qingyu asked.

Cheng Jia rushed into the room and saw that a map had been placed on the table, and his dripping hands swept across Bayu and Yiling, and said, "Here, here, it's all down."

"Have you guys gone up to the dam?" Ling Qingyu glanced around, sighed inwardly, really scared of something.

"Xuan Zhi looked at the dyke. This section of the **** has just been repaired a few years ago, and it is still strong." Cheng Jia wiped the water off his face and said.

"It's better to send an alarm, and the people should be prepared." Ling Qingyu said.

"People have been summoned to protect the embankment." Cheng Jia took the veil that Su Mu had handed over, and said.

"The two concepts are okay, there are so many women and children in this city, don't you inform others, let them prepare?" Ling Qingyu said.

Cheng Jia paused, and groaned: "It's okay now. If you say it, it will cause panic. If someone takes the opportunity to make trouble, it will be difficult to handle."

"Are you afraid that those who have taken the field from you will take the opportunity to riot?" Ling Qingyu said faintly, looking at the rain outside.

"Those were originally official fields, but when the King of Chu was here privately dividing those fields with these people, he naturally wanted to take them back." Cheng Jia explained for a moment of silence.

"Can you be sure that all the fields are like that? Instead of taking the opportunity to seize the civilian fields?" Ling Qingyu walked to the door of the house, watching the water level that had risen to the second step.

Cheng Jiamoran, Wang Xuanzhi’s people were mostly from the Wang family and the Dong family. There were actually many things that took advantage of this opportunity to make trouble, but these were really not things he could stop him. Even if he heard Wang Xuanzhi, Wang Xuanzhi also came forward to punish him. , But the following is still my own.

It rained for another whole day, and the next day there was still no sign of abating, and Ling Qingyu's heart began to feel uneasy.

Seeing her standing at the door watching the rain all day, Yan San put a shawl on her and said, "It's going to rain, and you can't help it."

"Yan San, do you know how the catastrophe came?" Ling Qingyu asked.

"Natural disasters are God's punishment." Yan Sandao.

Ling Qingyu shook his head and said, "No, the climate is inherently impermanent, but these are not the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing is that people do not prevent, prevent, or remedy."

"These, you can't do anything." Yan San said with his arms around her.

"Yeah, there is nothing I can do." Ling Qingyu sighed, looked at the wing room, but the capable person did not act.

"Wang Xuanzhi! We must warn the people!" Cheng Jia roared from the courtyard gate.

"Now that there is nothing wrong with the dyke, the warning at this time will disturb the people's hearts, if something happens, who will be responsible?" Wang Xuanzhi's voice was not small.

"I'll be responsible! If something happens, I'll take the head from Cheng Jia!" Cheng Jia shouted.

The entrance to the yard became quiet, only the sound of the violent rain beating on the eaves.

"Master Zhou, inform the people immediately." Cheng Jia said to an official next to him.

Lord Zhou glanced at Wang Xuanzhi, but he didn't leave.

"If you don't do it now, I will tell my father that you Jiangling neglected your duty and you think about the consequences for yourself." Cheng Jia's voice became abnormally cold.

"Yes, yes, go immediately after the next official!" Master Zhou said a little, and left in a hurry.

"If something happens, I'll really cut off your head, Qiao Mu." Wang Xuanzhi said with a bit of fatigue in his voice.

"Yan San, let's go and have a look on the dam."

"Master Ling?" Seeing Ling Qingyu walking over in a dress, Cheng Jia called out unexpectedly.

"I'll follow you up the dam to see." Ling Qingyu smiled slightly.

These days, she has never looked good to him. At this time, with such a warm smile, Cheng Jia was startled slightly, and then smiled: "If Jiazhen is beheaded, the Ling master remember to come and collect him. corpse."

"No, such heavy rain, they won't be violent even if they want to riot, let's go." Ling Qingyu walked past him and said with a smile.

Jiangling City is not far from the edge of the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River **** is indeed very strong. Many migrant workers have gathered on the dyke, and various shouts rang out during the rainstorm.

"How?" Cheng Jia asked Ling Qingyu, squatting on the shore.

"At this flow rate, the upstream water must not be small. If it rains another day, it will be dangerous." Ling Qingyu frowned.

"Yeah, I haven't seen such a large amount of water for many years." An old man next to him said.

"Cheng Jia, you come." Ling Qingyu stood up and said.

There are simple sheds built on the river embankment. Although water leaks everywhere, it is better than the pouring rain outside.

"Look, this is the Yangtze River." Ling Qingyu drew a map of the Yangtze River on the muddy ground, and then said: "Now we don't know what the situation is in the upper reaches, but our area has been raining for three consecutive days. If I didn't The estimation is wrong, I am afraid that the water volume has reached more than one hundred millimeters, don’t understand? Don’t understand, it’s okay, it means that there is too much water, and the drainage function of rivers and lakes and ditches can no longer keep up. According to what you said it rained that day In several places, here, here, and here, if there is such a heavy rain, then the water that cannot be discharged will form a flood. If these floods meet and overlap, the water level will be equal It’s high, and because the water flow is too fast, the impact on the **** is also great. In these places, depending on whether you can understand the situation, this is the most vulnerable place."

Cheng Jia glanced at her, and then said: "I will send someone there right away."

After sighing, Ling Qingyu said, "Master Cheng, help me send a letter to Quanzhou, although it will be late, it's better than not."

"Okay, what?" Cheng Jia looked up at her puzzled.

"I have a boat in Quanzhou, and I want them to mobilize all of them and drive from the open sea to the Yangtze River. Now this water volume, low-tonnage boats should be able to come in, can it help a little?" Ling Qingyu said. I'm afraid that it is no longer useful to transfer it at this time, but the supplies need to be delivered after the disaster.

"Ling..." Cheng Jia choked and whispered: "Thank you!"

"Don't thank me, I don't know if it will be useful." Ling Qingyu stood up and said.

*********

On the fifth day of the heavy rain, the people in Jiangling City were basically on the high ground. At first, when the government informed everyone, there were indeed people who wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble, but then the heavy rain poured down and the water level in the city began to rise. One after another, people began to walk up to the high ground, but Jiangling was originally a plain, no matter how high it was, many people made their homes on the wall.

Ling Qingyu stayed on the dam with Cheng Jia all the time. Seeing that the water level of the dam was getting higher and higher, it was only so close that it was about to overflow the dam, and asked Cheng Jia: "Will you swim?"

"Uh, this..." Cheng Jia said with a smile: "There are too many things in this young man's club, so you don't need to learn such little things."

"Then it won't?" Ling Qingyu sighed, and said, "Don't wear so many clothes on your body. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to save you."

"I don't wear much, am I?" Cheng Jia looked at herself. It was already mid-June. Where is the shirt and outer shirt?

Ling Qingyu cast his eyes to Wang Xuanzhi's side, and Cheng Jia looked at it, and saw that Wang Xuanzhi was still in a formal official uniform, there were indeed many inside and out, so he smiled.

The performances of Wang Xuanzhi and Cheng Jia on the dam these few days really made her admire her. As a family prince, who had a great food, he could actually fall to sleep like the migrant workers in such a place, drink cold water and eat dry food. The voices of the two of them were hoarse because of shouting, and they hadn't screamed tired for days and nights without getting under the dam. Ling Qingyu felt that he still had to pay them a little respect if they were willing to do this for the people.

There are now many water conservancy talents on the dam, and there are also many experienced old people. Ling Qingyu feels that his role is not very big. How to prevent floods and how to strengthen the dam, those people are much more formal.

"Actually, you don't need to drag me here at all. What I said, the old people said the same?" Can't help, Ling Qingyu still whispered.

"Just as Jia owes you a favor." Cheng Jia also laughed in a low voice. Those water conservancy experts did speak in more detail than Ling Qingyu, but without Ling Qingyu’s reminder, I was afraid that those people would not be able to see the two of them at all, and they would be suppressed by the county magistrate. Many of the water conservancy experts were originally the king of Chu. People.

"The master, go back and rest?" Yan San whispered softly. If he didn't close his eyes for three days or two nights, a man couldn't stand it, let alone a woman?

"Yes, you go back first." Cheng Jia also smiled. After releasing the water conservancy experts, there was indeed nothing wrong with Ling Qingyu on the dam. Seeing her eyes became panda eyes, Cheng Jia felt a little distressed heart.

"Well, you should be more careful." Ling Qingyu yawned and said.

"Master Wang! It's not good, the flood peak in front is already higher than the dam." Just as he lifted his foot, there was a panic cry from the dam in front.

Ling Qingyu looked up and saw that the far surface of the river seemed to be a high wave rising from the sea, and a wave line about one meter higher than the water surface rushed straight over.

There is this on the Yangtze River? !

"Grab steady!" Ling Qingyu shouted to Cheng Jia.

Cheng Jia thought, where should I catch it?

Then Hong Lang rushed over.

Ling Qingyu Yansan and Su Mu both came here in the strong wind and waves on the sea. Seeing the wave rushing over, they immediately bent down and grabbed the wooden stake on the dam.

Puff puff puff, the wave was just one round, Ling Qingyu stood up with saliva, and saw that there were not many water levels hitting the dam. As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, someone yelled: "Master Wang! Master Cheng!"

The place where Cheng Jia was next to her has become a neutral block. Ling Qingyu hurriedly turned his head and saw that many people on the river surface had already rushed downstream at an extremely fast speed.

"Yan San, keep it underneath!" Ling Qingyu cried, ran a few steps and jumped into the water.
