CP, disassembled

Qianzhou has high mountains and bad waters, multi-ethnic groups live together, and the folk customs are aggressive.It can be said that it is a place with poor mountains and bad waters. Officials are transferred here, and they are often called relegated.

The flooding this time was caused by the torrential rain in summer and the disrepair of the embankment of the Qianjiang River.When he came to Qianzhou, Tan Houxun entered the state government office and summoned local officials to discuss.

"Father, I want to visit the embankment." Tan Siming said.

Tan Houxun had some headaches. Originally, he didn't want his youngest son to follow him, but he couldn't bear his soft words.

"Tan Shilang, I also want to go and see the people near the river bank with my own eyes, and learn more about the situation." Duan Qiongyu said.

Tan Houxun had no choice but to agree.Under the leadership of Qi Pansi, Duan Qiongyu, Tan Siming, and Gu Yuanwei rode horses and braved the heavy rain to the Qianjiang River.

The torrential rain was very heavy, and as we marched in the rain, Gu Yuanwei felt that the clothes were not comfortable sticking to his body, so he simply took off his shirt.Duan Qiongyu and Tan Siming also took off together.

Seeing them doing this, Qi Bansi was too embarrassed to wear it alone, so he took it off.

There are trees, clothes, pots, etc. floating in the rivers and mountains of Qianjiang, and the river water is yellow and turbid.Walking downstream along the Qianjiang River, one foot deep and one foot shallow, everyone walked very hard, wiping the rain that blurred their eyes from time to time.

Downstream, there is no way to go, the river has overflowed the mountains and forests.According to Judge Qi, many people have been moved to the top of the mountain, but many who did not win were swept away by the huge waves.

"Then how many people died?" Gu Yuanwei asked.

"This, I haven't had time to count, there are too many." Qi Bansi said in a sad voice, "No one will lose the people I met, and there is one in a hundred."

"Then why did it cause flooding?" Tan Siming asked, "You reported that the dam collapsed. Why did the dam collapse? The imperial court allocates dam protection fees every year. Where did you use it?"

"We... I... I'm just a judge, I don't know so much."

"You are a secretary in charge of engineering and water conservancy, how could you not know?"

Seeing that Judge Qi was struck speechless during the continuous questioning, Gu Yuanwei cast a sympathetic look at him.Tan Siming has the professional characteristics of modern journalists who want to get to the bottom of things.

"We will know all of this, so don't ask Tan Xiaolang." Duan Qiongyu stopped him.

Gu Yuanwei's horse's hoof accidentally slipped and fell.He didn't notice and almost fell down.Duan Qiongyu next to him grabbed his arm and said "be careful".

Gu Yuanwei wiped the rainwater off his face and thanked him.At the end, they were completely unable to ride the horses. Judge Qi ordered everyone to get off their horses, and walked down a certain distance to the temporary rescue point.

The temporary rescue point is a raised hill, which can only accommodate 30 to [-] people.

"We send people with good water skills to search in the river with small boats, and rescue those who survived." Qi Bansi introduced.

When the patrolling sailors returned, they boarded the boat and headed for the break-down of the dike.

"It's the first time I've seen an official without clothes." Said An Yun, a fellow sailor, smacking their chests and his own from time to time, "Your bodies look like they haven't been exposed to the sun, they're too white."

He pointed at Gu Yuanwei and said, "Your hair is the whitest. If you hadn't taken off your clothes, I would have doubted it..."

"An Yun, shut up! Don't be disrespectful to Gu Shuling Shi!" Seeing that he didn't hold back, Judge Qi reprimanded him with a very uneasy expression, and then apologized to Gu Yuanwei, "Small people in the mountains, talk nonsense, I hope you don't care about him."

Duan Qiongyu didn't wait for Gu Yuanwei to speak, and said, "It's okay, he is innocent, so he can't be punished for his words."

Gu Yuanwei could only show generosity, but he gave Duan Qiongyu a stare.He knew that he had fair skin. If he was in modern times, he would be very happy. It is easy to pick up girls with good looks, but Hui Chao doesn't seem to be suitable.

It's a pity that his physique belongs to the type that cannot be tanned, and his skin will peel off when exposed to the sun, and it will turn white again after peeling off the skin.He can't help it either.

At the beginning, I didn't feel it, but when the boat entered the wide middle of the water, and the current was strong, Duan Qiongyu felt a little dizzy and his body became stiff when he stood on the boat.

On the way to Qianzhou, he had this feeling, but the ship was stable and not serious.Now he is sure that he died due to drowning in his previous life, and he has a shadow.

This flat boat can be overturned by a slightly bigger wave, it is too unsafe.

"What's wrong with you, your face is so pale?" Gu Yuanwei was the first to notice his abnormality.

"I am fine."

"You don't feel dizzy, do you?" An Yun asked, "You look at the ripples of the river carefully, are you more dizzy?"

Seeing that An Yun was serious, Duan Qiongyu no longer shy away from medical treatment. After looking at it, it was indeed so.The water was rippling, as if trying to take his heart away bit by bit.

"It's okay, I'm here, and I will protect you."

Gu Yuanwei grabbed Duan Qiongyu's arm and said with a smile, "I'll hold you, don't be afraid."

"I'm not afraid, really."

Duan Qiongyu raised his head to look at the sky, but he didn't pull his hand out.Tan Siming took his other hand, making him smile wryly.

Outside the festering embankment is the submerged farmland, on which sandbags have built a dam.Those sandbags looked precarious in the turbulent river.

Outside the simple dams, some people have built mud walls half a person high on their own farmland, and some of them have been washed away.

Looking at the dike, Gu Yuanwei shook his head and said, "This won't work, sandbags are easy to wash away."

"That's right. We have to bring sandbags here again after it's washed away." Judge Qi sighed, "If this torrential rain continues like this, it may collapse tomorrow night."

When the boat was going downstream, it was blocked by a tree trunk.Among the leaves, Duan Qiongyu saw suspicious colors.Let the boat approach and a small child is strapped to it.

An Yun went up to touch it, shook his head, and said sadly: "Dead."

In fact, everyone had a hunch when they saw that half of his body soaked in the water.This section of the tree trunk is stuck here, and the life that the child's parents fought so hard for him is ruined.

Everyone was about to leave, but Gu Yuanwei stopped him and said, "Let's bury him."

"Hey, that's good. It's a pity that such a small child died." Tan Siming squatted down, ready to explain.

"Be careful, don't touch his body." Duan Qiongyu took the clothes he took off just now and said in his hand.

"That's right, there are a lot of bacteria on the corpse, and it's easy for people to get infected after touching it," Gu Yuanwei said.

What he said made both Qi Bansi and An Yun change their expressions.They didn't salvage the floating corpse at all. After all, it was too late to save people.

"It's okay, I've already told Dr. Zhang, and he will make arrangements when he settles down." Gu Yuanwei prayed, "I really hope there won't be an epidemic this time."

He actually knew that the situation was not optimistic.They received the information, and when they came again, the time had been delayed.After burying the child on the mountain, they went to see the people on the mountain.

Some lived in caves, and many built a simple tent by themselves, and some directly built a simple shelter from the rain with branches, which is really pitiful.Many people already have a cold and fever, but they are short of medical care.

Hearing that the officials in the capital were coming, everyone gathered around.Duan Qiongyu could only explain to them over and over again that the food and medicinal materials had already been transported, and someone would move them up the mountain soon.

If Duan Qiongyu had had a sense of utilitarianism before coming here, seeing these skinny people, but bursting out with hope at the moment of seeing them, there would be nothing left.

They are all his compatriots, but they are tormented by the disaster, and he feels uncomfortable at all.Those parents who hold their children in their arms and shield them from the wind and rain, those people shivering under the trees...

He gave the oil-paper umbrella they didn't use to the parents with children.

"Whoever dares to snatch their oil-paper umbrellas will be killed!" Duan Qiongyu roared.
