Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

(I accidentally typed the wrong chapter. This chapter should be Chapter 187. Sorry! But it's troublesome to change it, so let's leave it like this)

As the raindrops fell into the earth and merged into the river, the flow of the river increased further.

This river is less than ten kilometers away from the sea, so there will be no special situation of sudden flooding due to blockage, and they have more buffer time.

The residents wearing thick straw hats raised torches in the slightly wet fields in the light rain, relying on the light to find the dark green plants with needle-like slender leaves half a person tall. These semi-free-range gingers growing in the fields show extremely amazing vitality.

There is no fertilizer, little watering, and only occasionally someone comes to weed around these gingers.

The iron shovel in the hand digs the surface soil, and then determines the approximate size of the ginger rhizome before digging it out of the soil with a shovel. Take out the whole ginger, cut off the part except the rhizome, and then put the rhizome into your backpack for storage.

The wound of ginger will automatically oxidize and form scabs, so it can be preserved for a long time.

This is the way to complete the collection of ginger.

They give priority to collecting ginger with the highest unit value and easy to find, and put carrots, which are less cost-effective plants, behind.

These hundreds of acres of ginger look a lot, but Liu Yansheng brought a full three hundred people on this trip, just to collect all the plants and take them away before dawn. Two hundred ten people are responsible for collection, one person in a group is responsible for one acre, and the remaining ten people run to the other side of the river with the full baskets to put them, and then come to carry the remaining crops and fruits.

But the weather was not good, and they were only halfway done when it started to rain. The soil, which was full of water, became wet and sticky. It took a lot of effort to walk, which greatly hindered the speed of the people in the other side of the river to harvest the cash crops.

Liu Yansheng picked up a broken piece of ginger and put it in front of his nose to smell it. Then he ground off the outer skin of the ginger and put the remaining light yellow part into the ginger. The spicy taste immediately lifted his spirits.

This ginger can be sliced ​​and brewed into ginger tea. If you add some brown sugar to taste it.

A cup of hot brown sugar ginger tea will immediately dispel the chill brought by the cold raindrops.

Liu Yansheng rubbed his hands. He had never drunk brown sugar ginger tea, but he had heard of this kind of wonderful recipe for warming the body from the storyteller before. It seemed that his body would warm up after being rained on.

"Team Leader Liu, we have harvested all the big gingers here."

A farmer carrying a basket on his back ran quickly across the ground that had begun to accumulate water towards the leader of them, and pressed his big straw hat to straighten it, which had tilted to one side due to running.

"Check the remaining ones again, and the remaining people will go to collect carrots. Don't go to the fields on the side close to the river. Be careful, and each person in a group will take care of each other."

Even if Liu Yansheng had never experienced a flood, watching the river flow from a distance, he thought that if he fell, he would be swallowed up by the turbulent muddy current in an instant.

Their act of rushing to harvest crops overnight was itself a bit dangerous, and the lord also reminded them to pay great attention to safety before taking action.

Liu Yansheng struggled to organize his words and conveyed what he wanted to say to the team leader who came to find him.

"Ah!"

Before they finished speaking, a miserable sound came from the river bank, and everyone could vaguely hear the sound. Liu Yansheng was close enough to even hear the sound of heavy objects falling into the water. He was so anxious that he hurried over with a torch.

The drowning man was struggling to grab all the plants on the river bank, holding them together and tightly in his hands to prevent himself from being carried away by the river.

He knew very well that if he was swept away by the river, there would be no chance of survival.

Liu Yansheng's first thought was to find a branch thick enough to pull him up, but there were no plants here.

He didn't have enough energy to climb up by himself. He had already exhausted all his energy just by grabbing the reeds on the river bank to stabilize his body, not to mention climbing up the shore with his own energy along these plants.

"He said he saw a ginger plant growing well on the shore and wanted to pull it up, but his feet slipped and he fell."

A farmer standing on the shore, who was obviously in the same group as him, explained to Liu Yansheng tremblingly.

Liu Yansheng resisted the urge to reprimand, and came to the conclusion that saving people was the most important thing. Safety issues should be discussed after rescuing people first.

Even if he was not the general team leader, he could not ignore the situation by saying it was too difficult when he saw the people who had at least a passing relationship with him fall into the water.

"Hold my hand, I'll pull him up."

Liu Yansheng gritted his teeth and said to the people standing behind him, asking them to hold his right hand and body, form a human ladder to pull up the farmer who fell.

There was only this way.

They also talked about human ladders and human walls in flood prevention, but there was no rope to tie them together, and human lives were at stake.

When the people quickly formed a human ladder formation and prepared to pull people up,

Wu Bai and two guards ran in front of Liu Yansheng, panting. The rain soaked their bodies without any rain protection, mixed with the mud and sand splashed along the way, making them look particularly embarrassed.

"Wait, don't go like this, ha..."

Wu Bai panted heavily while untying the long rope tied to his shoulders. The thick rope was also very long and heavy, and it took two people to lift it.

"I saw it from above. Ha, take the rope and tie your waist tightly, don't let it get dragged into the water."

Wu Bai had been keeping an eye on the farmers who were harvesting. When he saw a torch fall into the water with a scream from the watchtower, he quickly determined that someone had fallen into the water. He immediately picked up the life-saving rope hanging next to the watchtower and ran towards the water point with the guards without stopping.

Wu Bai only had the idea of ​​saving people first in his mind, and never thought about the possibility that he would be useless if he ran away because the people had been washed away.

In order to rescue people who fell into the water, Ji Lin promptly arranged strong hemp ropes that could be tied to the body in all places near the water source.

Be prepared.
