Danger under heavy rain

He pulled the two little girls into the house to prevent them from being splashed by the vapor that drifted in.

If such heavy rain continues all night, we don’t know how much disaster it will cause.

As the future said, until nine o’clock in the evening, the rain had no intention of stopping,

but it was even heavier than before.

Amidst the rumbling thunder, blue lightning thundered down like a roaring dragon soul, and

the sky seemed to be trembling, which was thrilling.

“Brother, we are afraid.”

At this time, the Zhou family’s door was opened, and Duoduo and the others came in holding their own pillows.

“Come up.”

Zhou Clan smiled and lifted the quilt and let them get into bed.

“Hehe, brother, that’s great.”

“Duoduo, be more careful when you go to bed at night. Don’t fall asleep and fall asleep.”

“Humph, it was just an accident last time, and it will definitely not happen this time.”

“It’s best. That’s it.”

As they fell into sleep.

On the other side,

in Huwu Village, Xinfeng County, Qianzhou City, Xijiang Province.

The village chief, Meng Yongkang, had a sad face, sitting on a long bench, watching the lightning and thunder outside the house, and the heavy rain,

while smoking a dry cigarette.

“Uncle Meng, Uncle Meng!”

Suddenly, an anxious male voice came closer from far away.

Meng Yongkang stood up suddenly.

A middle-aged man wearing a raincoat ran in hurriedly.

The village chief hurriedly grabbed his hand, “Chang’an, how is the situation?”

“Uncle Meng, the water level of the reservoir in the back mountain has seriously exceeded the warning line.

It is expected to overflow in one or two hours. The flood discharge channel has been opened, but the effect is not It’s ideal.

The town said that the rain won’t stop for a while,

so we have to evacuate today and can’t delay it any longer. They have arranged for vehicles to be on the way and

are expected to arrive in an hour.”

Meng Changan took off his bamboo hat . I put on my hat and wiped the rain off my face, feeling extremely anxious.

The rain has been going on for a week, and the precipitation is much higher than in previous years. The reservoir has gradually reached its limit.

Huwu Village is located downstream of the Xinfeng Reservoir. Once If the embankment is discovered to have burst, the consequences will be disastrous.

“We really can’t wait any longer. Chang’an, you go and bring the second master over. You have to tie him up even if you have to force him.

I’m going to wake up the others. We’ll borrow Changlin’s bus to evacuate first.”

Meng Yongkang made a prompt decision and continued for days. The heavy rain has caused the surrounding mountains to contain too much water, and landslides have begun to occur.

We must evacuate as soon as possible, it will be even worse if the road is blocked.

Staying here and waiting for the town’s rescue is relatively risky.

Besides, there are several villages downstream, and it is difficult for the town to take care of them all at once.

“Uncle Meng, we need you to be in charge here. You call the radio here. I’ll go to the second master’s house and knock on the doors of every house to wake them up.” ”

Okay, let Changlin bring the bus keys.”

“Understood.”

Meng Changan put on his hat again and went out against the rain.

Meng Yongkang did not dare to delay and hurriedly started to turn on the village radio:

“Fellow villagers, I am the village chief. The reservoir is dangerous. We need to evacuate temporarily. Please gather the village committee immediately and repeat…”

In the noisy sound of rain, The sound of the loudspeaker sounded in this small mountain village.

In a two-story red brick house not far from the village committee.

Deng Mingxia, who vaguely heard the sound of the radio, pushed Meng Changlin, who was sleeping beside her,

“Chang Lin, Chang Lin, wake up quickly, it seems that Uncle Meng is calling the radio.”

Meng Changlin turned over and muttered: “It’s so late at night. , you must have heard wrong, go to sleep.”

Deng Mingxia didn’t think so, and prepared to get up and get closer to the window to hear more clearly.

For some reason, she always had a bad feeling in her heart tonight.

Bang bang bang!

“Brother Chang Lin, Sister Mingxia!”

At this time, there was a rapid knock on the door accompanied by a shout.

“Here we come.”

Deng Mingxia shouted, pulled Meng Changlin up, and

said to the confused Meng Changlin: “Get up quickly, Chang’an is here.”

“At this time, isn’t Changan on duty at the reservoir? How can he run away? Come here?”

Meng Changlin rubbed his groggy eyes, yawned, put on his shoes and left the room.

Deng Mingxia also followed out.

Opening the door, I saw Meng Changan who was still wet in his raincoat.

“Brother Chang Lin, Sister Mingxia, please clean up quickly.

The reservoir is in emergency. The town asked us to evacuate first and then come back when the rain stops.

However, the evacuation vehicle will not arrive until an hour later. Uncle Meng means to borrow it.” Do you see your bus?”

Meng Changan finished the sentence in one breath.

Hearing this, the expressions of Meng Changlin and his wife changed drastically. The two of them ran the bus, and they were knowledgeable enough

to make the town order a retreat. However, one could imagine how serious the situation had become.

He also didn’t write ink, “I agree.”

“Okay, take the key with you and go to the village committee to gather first.

I’ll call the others first, and I have to go to the other side of the river to pick up the second master.”

Meng Changan saw He agreed that time was running out and he would leave immediately to go to the next house.

“Let’s split up. You can go directly to the other side of the river and leave it to me.”

Meng Changlin said to Meng Changan.

“Okay, I’ll leave it to you.”

Meng Changan didn’t talk nonsense and disappeared directly into the wind and rain.

“Chang Lin, please pay attention to safety.”

Deng Mingxia took the raincoat and put it on Meng Changlin, with worry in her eyes.

“Don’t worry, you should pack up quickly. Bring some clothes and more cash. Take your car keys and go to the village committee to wait for us.

By the way, bring the Dabai that my daughter bought for us too. It can detect it on rainy days. It’s safer down there.”

Meng Changlin said quickly.

Deng Mingxia nodded, “I know.”

Without any delay, Meng Changlin quickly finished dressing and went out.

Deng Mingxia quickly packed her things.

ten minutes later.

The villagers gathered in the village committee and were loading luggage into the car.

There were forty-two people in total. Except for Meng Changan, Er Ye, and the other two families living on the other side of the river, the others had already arrived.

“Boss, has it really come to this?”

A man in his fifties looked at Meng Yongkang and said.

“Second brother, the town has issued a notice, and several villages further downstream have arranged to evacuate.”

Meng Yongkang looked at his younger brother Meng Yongfu and sighed.

Everyone present was silent, only some children were laughing.

Meng Yongkang was quite prestigious in the village, and they believed what he said.

At this time, the old man’s shouting and cursing came from the distance.

“Meng Changlin, you are rebelling, aren’t you? You dare to be tough? Let

your second master come down quickly and I won’t leave.

Our Meng family has been rooted here for more than 80 years and has always been safe. This is a blessed place. It won’t Something’s up.”

I saw five or six people coming from a distance with flashlights.

After a while, they arrived at the village committee.

The leader was none other than Meng Changan.

Meng Changan placed an old man with gray hair, his face covered with age spots, leaning on a cane and swearing on the ground.

He is the most senior person in the village, Meng Xingteng, Second Master Meng.

“Meng Yongkang, what are you doing? Why are you evacuating at night?”

Meng Yongkang had a wry smile on his face, “Second Master, the current environment is too dangerous,

and we are only evacuating temporarily. We will return when the weather clears. I’ll come back.”

“This is a blessed place, and with the blessings of our ancestors, nothing will happen. If you want to leave, you can leave, but I won’t leave.”

The second master poked the ground with his crutch and sat down on the stool next to him.
