The sky cleared up for a few days, and then heavy dark clouds gathered again. The crackling thunder sometimes roared and sometimes exploded, as if it was the beginning of the world.

The Thunder God thunders, the Lightning Mother Yaoguang.

Ji Qingyue stood under the eaves, looking at the rain that kept falling, like clouds weighing on the top of a distant mountain. His heart was filled with gloomy clouds and continuous rain.

Due to the continuous erosion of heavy rains, the already precarious boulders on the high mountains were even more crumbling. The mountains could no longer support them. The boulders smashed into rocks along the way and rolled down with the broken stones. On the way, they broke many pine trees and broke straight down. Enter the bottom of the mountain.

All of this happened too suddenly. Ji Qingyue was awakened by a violent vibration at night, and then there was an overwhelming loud noise, which heavily surrounded Ji Qingyue who was in the darkness.

Not caring about anything else, Ji Qingyue jumped up from the kang, ran to the wooden bridge as fast as possible, and jumped into the study outside the painting.

Although Ji Qingyue ran very fast and was briefly exposed to heavy rain, his whole body was still soaked. The wet and cold clothes stuck tightly to the skin and felt cold. I didn't know whether it was cold or frightened in the summer night, but my whole body was shivering.

Originally, Ji Qingyue was glad that the mountain here was a hard stone mountain, and the sparse soil was tightly grasped by pine trees. There should be no risk of landslides and mudslides. Unexpectedly, the stone collapsed.

The barrier in the painting blocks the earth-shattering sound. There is the sound of rain outside the house. In the dark study, there is no light outside.

Everyone is asleep.

The more Ji Qing thought about it, he decided to go to Li Erlang's room to lie down. Now that they were both not at home, the room was empty. There were still many things to do tomorrow, so recharging his energy was the most important thing.

The summer is sultry and hot, and the heavy rains have been continuous in recent days. Everyone only closes the door when sleeping, leaving the door open for ventilation.

Ever since Ji Qingyue couldn't find Li Erlang that rainy night, Li Erlang changed the weatherboard in his room. After putting it down, it no longer blocked the window tightly, but was supported by a diagonal support, leaving There is a gap at the bottom. If the door is closed, you can climb in through the window.

This time, Ji Qingyue felt that something was wrong. What was he going to do when he climbed out of the window in the middle of the night...?

The door was open and ajar. Ji Qingyue entered the room gently on tiptoes and took out a change of clothes from Li Erlang's suitcase.

Although the clothes are a bit big, they are still dry.

The next day, the Li family saw Ji Qingyue coming out of Erlang's room. They felt strange but didn't say much. "Yue Lang, come over and have breakfast together!"

At the dinner table, Ji Qingyue explained the reason for sleeping in Li Erlang's room. Everyone was shocked that this situation would happen in the painting.

Li Aniang asked quickly: "Yue Lang, are you not hurt?"

Ji Qingyue shook his head. He was also very worried about returning to the painting later. He didn't know the situation in the painting yet. Judging from the movements last night, the situation was probably not going to be better.

People from outside cannot enter the painting and cannot help, so they can only worry.

Dad Li put his hands on his knees: "Yue Lang, if you want anything, just say it. We can't go in to help in person, but we can help a little!" Dad Li said again: "I was there a few days ago. Go to the brick and stone shop and order green bricks and tiles, and the bricklayer will deliver them to the house as agreed."

Yes, Ji Qingyue doesn’t want to bake bricks himself, he wants to build a two-story brick house.

He saw colored glaze in the Hu Shang Market. The price was a bit expensive, but it should still be affordable for making windows. Embedding different shapes of glass pieces into wooden windows, although the transparency is not as good as modern glass, the light transmittance and waterproofness are better than window paper.

Because there is no reinforced concrete, the floors are made of wood, and a balcony is built on the second floor.

In order not to change the picture, Ji Qingyue still planned to build the house on the right side of the scenery in the scroll. The first brick house was built on the open space a little to the right. It was blocked by hillsides and trees, so it could not be seen. There is no need to worry about being discovered further to the right, but if it is built behind a hillside, many beautiful views will be blocked.

Ji Qing thought more and more, asked Li Aweng again, and finally decided to build the house on the hillside!

Although the construction process will be very hard, he will try his best to buy all the materials on the market and move them into the painting to build the new house bit by bit.

Just after breakfast, Ji Qingyue suddenly disappeared in front of everyone.

When he opened his eyes again, Ji Qingyue was standing on the bridge.

The rain became lighter and my vision was no longer blurry.

Ji Qingyue's eyes widened, and he was too frightened by the mess in the distance to react.

Oh my God, a huge boulder more than ten meters high rolled down from the mountain, smashing through other stones and pine trees along the way, carrying rubble and pouring down, leaving a deep mark on the mountain.

The boulder rolled down to the ground, followed the force of the impact, and moved forward for dozens of meters before stopping, crushing a large pine forest at the bottom of the mountain.

The boulders are mixed with countless sand and gravel, forming a much gentler arc at the foot of the mountain. If you want to go up the mountain in the future, you don't have to climb straight up from the foot of the mountain as in the past. You can follow this arc and climb up the mountainside, which will save time and effort. a lot of.

Both the house and the thatched cottage were fine. The place where the boulder fell was a hundred meters away from the house and could not be seen when viewing the painting, so there was no need to worry about outsiders discovering it.

Ji Qingyue returned to the house, took out his raincoat and hat, and planned to take a look at the place where the boulder fell.

It's just a rough estimate when you look at it from a distance, but it's only when you look up close that you're shocked by the huge rocks.

The gravel and sand that fell together fanned out at the foot of the mountain, and together with the boulders formed a stone slope like stairs.

A stone with a height of more than ten meters is as high as three or four stories, but it is insignificant in front of the mountains that are thousands of meters high.

Ji Qingyue climbed up the stone slope. This height was high enough to overlook the pine forest. He looked across the hillside by the lake and saw the wild grassland in the distance.

If possible, it would be good to build a house here, but the stones are very unstable and can easily loosen.

After confirming that the boulder posed no threat to the house, Ji Qingyue finally felt relieved.

Now it's time to go back and face another kind of mess in the ground.

Several consecutive heavy rains can be regarded as destroying the crops in the fields.

The wheat failed to be pollinated successfully, and most of the ears produced were empty. This crop was wasted, and it ended up with no harvest, which made Ji Qingyue very depressed.

The situation of rice is better. After all, it only encountered heavy rain after pollination. After the fallen rice is lifted up, it can continue to grow. As long as the water in the field is drained, it can be harvested in two days.

I hope it won’t rain heavily by then.

I am very fortunate that the cotton was planted on the hillside and the seedlings have fully sprouted. High ridges were dug on the hillside so that the rainwater that fell to the ground drained away in time and could not accumulate in the soil, so as not to destroy the roots of the cotton. Soaked.

The vegetable patch in the backyard is far away from the stream and has not been greatly affected. It should not affect next month's shipments.

The heavy rain that caused rockslides was the last, followed by continuous high temperatures and sunshine.

After being exposed to the sun for several days, Ji Qingyue slowly brought back the pine trees that had been crushed by boulders. He peeled off the bark of the better ones and dried them in the sun for use as lumber, and split the bad ones into several pieces for firewood.

When he went out again, Ji Qingyue heard about the harm caused by several heavy rains. In several villages at the foot of Lancang Mountain, except for Shiliang Village, which has more trees, other villages have sparse trees on the mountain and are washed away by rain, causing large-scale landslides and mudslides. In an instant, the village is covered in thick muddy water.
