Ten Ways Not Having a Cheats Leads to Flooding

The New Year is the beginning of spring, the weather is not yet out of the cold, but the snow has stopped a week later, the sun jumps up from the treetops to the top of the sky, the warm light shines down from the cracks in the stones, and the ice edges on the top of the cave are dripping like tears answer.

It was the coldest time when the snow was melting. Everyone hoped that the snow would be melted soon, but also hid in the quilt and shivered, only showing their expectant eyes.

Tao Mujia and Lin Ge were not so afraid of the cold. They carried two shovels to shovel the snow at the entrance of the cave early. After a while, they dug less than half a meter. Hu Yuanyuan followed them to learn and was busy behind them with the shovel. In the arms of her parents, she has no dependence at all, and her behavior gradually moves closer to adults.

A small opening was opened in one day, allowing people to enter and exit. Thanks to Tao Mujia and his team, the villagers moved ahead of time. After more than ten days, the snow had completely melted, and the river rushed forward, washing away a lot of mud on both sides of the river. , It was difficult to communicate with each other for a while, so Lin Geyi was bold, took Tao Mujia in and out, dug a lot of wild vegetables from the forest, and waited until March and April to harvest bamboo shoots and sow seeds.

Hu Yuanyuan went hunting with them. Of course, she couldn’t learn to use the instinct of wild animals to catch small animals like them. There are bow and arrow craftsmen in the village. They made a simple bow and arrow suit for her. She is about 1.3 meters tall and carries a bow and arrow. Two adults were running in the woods.

Tao Mujia had given her blood before, so she didn't have to worry about encountering poisonous ants.

When the cottonseeds were planted, Tao Mujia took the cotton harvested last year and made a small scarf for Hu Yuanyuan as a late New Year's gift to her.

In the blink of an eye, it was June, and the weather suddenly became hot. The cicadas in the woods made a headache, and the work efficiency of the two of them was not as high as before. However, the child was still in high spirits, shuttling through the woods looking for prey.

Tao Mujia and Lin Ge leaned on a tall and short boulder, drinking water and eating to replenish their energy. Seeing that Hu Yuanyuan's black twintails sank into the deep forest, they quickly put down their things and rushed over.

After walking a few steps, she heard a terrified cry, so frightened that Tao Mujia flew over on the rocks, and saw Hu Yuanyuan sitting on the ground with one hand raised, looking forward in horror.

Tao Mujia took a few steps up to pull her up, and immediately saw the big black spot on her hand, but there was nothing in front of her.

Lin Ge happened to rush over and asked them what happened.

Hu Yuanyuan's voice trembled: "I just stood here and aimed at the fox, and then...then an ant jumped on my hand and bit me. Before I could catch it, it jumped on the leaf and ran away. gone."

She was about to cry. Tao Mujia and Lin Ge came here to talk about what happened outside, which was still fresh in her memory. These ants were the culprit for spreading the virus. Now she was bitten, and the wound started to turn black. She was afraid that she would die. About to die, he grabbed Tao Mujia's clothes and cried.

Lin Ge took her hand over, seeing that the wound hadn't spread, he pushed her shoulders to let her face him.

"You won't die. You see, the wound didn't expand. You drank detoxified blood, so the virus won't affect you. You will be an excellent hunter in the future. What do you look like crying now? Thinking that you will die, will you still hunt in the future?" Lin Ge wiped her tears while preaching, without saying anything to comfort her.

Tao Mujia couldn't see it anymore, saying that he was talking big things to a little girl.

"What a loser for a loving mother."

Tao Mujia was choked up, and after thinking for a long time, he couldn't think of a rebuttal.

Hu Yuanyuan cried for a long time before she stopped. Although nothing major happened, the hunting was terminated early. Tao Mujia sent Hu Yuanyuan back, explained what happened to Hu Yuanyuan, and assured Hu Yuanyuan that there would be no danger. Only then could Hu Yuanyuan calm down .

"I'm just such a daughter, if something happens to her..." Hu Yiyuan wiped his eyes, and the tears that were not wiped from the corners of his eyes flowed down the gully on his face. He hesitated, shocked and scared at the same time.

It was also the first time Tao Mujia saw an old man crying like this. Even Hu Yuanyuan, the horror left by the virus five years ago was still with her everywhere. The seemingly peaceful cave was full of fear of death.

Fear is a human instinct. Tao Mujia knows this very well, so he is more worried. He thought that the ant colony under the control of Guangming City would not come here. Unexpectedly, after a year, they still "see you again by fate", If the villagers know about the arrival of the ants, the harmony and tranquility here will be broken soon.

The most important thing is that he doesn't know whether the ant is accidental or intentional. If it is accidental, he can ask the villagers to take some precautions. If Guangming City finds them and puts them on purpose to demonstrate to them, he and Lin Ge will fight against each other. We had to leave, and we had to transfer the villagers safely.

He frowned and walked back to their cabin. Lin Ge knew what he was thinking when he saw him like this, so he sat on the bed and patted his side to make him sit up.

Tao Mujia sat beside him, looking at the busy villagers on the other side of the window, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Lin Ge, are we going to move out again?"

It is also difficult for Lin Ge to answer this question, "Maybe, maybe not."

"Life is always so difficult." Whether it is an era he is familiar with or an era he is not familiar with.

"A person's life is seldom smooth sailing. Difficulties will always arise. Either you will defeat him, or he will defeat you." Lin Ge held his hand and comforted him: "No matter what choice you make, I will be with you."

Tao Mujia wanted to shake his hand a little bit, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't make up his mind and turned his head away.

"I know, and I am very grateful to you. In fact, you would have a better life without me."

Lin Ge was silent for a long time. He let go of his hand, wondering what he was thinking.

After a cup of tea, Lin Ge said: "Bright or Sandstorm, one of them may find us. They should also be able to find the villagers here. Before leaving, we must move everyone to a new location."

"Have you thought about a suitable location?"

"There is a cave in the lake twenty miles to the south, and the situation is similar to this."

"Let's leave it at that. I'll talk to Hu Yuanyuan tomorrow so that everyone can prepare as soon as possible."

The two drew up the route and plan overnight, and planned to talk to Hu Yuan early in the morning.

The next day when Tao Mujia went to find Hu Yuanyuan, it was raining, and the cave was shrouded in lightning and thunder. The rainy season in this place usually lasts for a week or two at a time, and the rising water can fill four Dongting Lakes for flood control. Measures are necessary. Hu Yuanyuan is leading everyone to build a dam upstream. After hearing Tao Mujia's intentions, it is a bit difficult. This time period is the rainy season, so it may not be easy to move.

The plan had to be postponed, and Tao Mujia and Lin Ge continued to live here with anxiety.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, as if the sky had been torn apart, and the small dam seemed to be unable to resist.

When it was still daylight, the village suddenly sounded an alarm, and Tao Mujia was awakened by the rapid sound of the bell. There were people coming and going outside.

"There's a flood in the upper reaches! Let's leave quickly!" Hu Yiyuan yelled at the top of the rice paddies, waving his arms like a big rooster and directing the crowd to move things and prepare to leave.

The two quickly put on their clothes and rushed out.

"what happened?!"

Hu Yiyuan didn't have time to talk to them. He only said that there was a flood upstream, which was bigger than ever before, and their tributary couldn't bear it anymore. "Pack up your things quickly, and go to the shore together."

Tao Mujia wanted to ask a few more questions, but Lin Ge grabbed his shoulder and pulled him back with a solemn expression.

"They will definitely not be able to go ashore with this water force. The boat is too small, and it is impossible for them to take everything out."

"It's useless to say these things now, we have to block the water and give them more time."

With a plan in mind, the two greeted Hu Yuanyuan and told him not to wait for them, and immediately set off to leave first.

They went down the current and rowed towards the shore when they came. The boat capsized quickly in the turbid waves. The two of them grabbed the branches on the shore with their strength and fished themselves up.

Tao Mujia followed Lin Ge upriver, and reached the ferry in half an hour. The ferry was quite high, and the water barely covered half a wheel. Lin Ge turned on the ignition three times before he ignited it. While there was still some fuel in the car, Tao Mujia Go further upstream together.

He still remembers the things made by some villages upstream. Because they are small villages, every time there is a flood, they abandon the small ones and keep the big ones. Three huge wooden gates were built to hold back the water.

After driving for more than half an hour, they finally reached the upper reaches. Each of them was in charge of a gate, wading through the flood water to close the gate made of giant wood, and then opened a side path to divert part of the water.

After closing the gate, the water flow was much smaller. Tao Mujia wiped the sweat or water from his forehead in relief, and turned around to swim towards Lin Ge.

Lin Ge's side was almost done. Seeing him coming, he smiled and waved. Tao Mujia was about to respond. Lin Ge's face suddenly changed, his eyes were tearing apart, and he waved frantically at him. The sound of surrounding water drowned out Lin Ge's cries. , the suddenly turbulent water current dragged Tao Mujia forward.

He already realized that something was wrong, but he couldn't move at all. He saw Lin Ge climbing over the stake and wanted to give him a hand, but the muddy water in front of him made his eyes hurt. He finally raised his head, but the back of his head was suddenly caught The heavy object hit, and there was a sharp pain.

He could not see clearly at all, Tao Mujia fell into the water, the water was getting bigger and bigger, he was spinning in the water together with the rocks and soil, the oppression and pain caused by suffocation almost overloaded his body, he closed his eyes He could feel a pair of hands barely grabbing the corner of his clothes several times. He wanted to open his eyes to see where Lin Ge was, but he let out his last breath and passed out.

Lin Ge was pulling a piece of driftwood. In front of him was the surging, invisible muddy water. He clearly knew that there was someone drifting with him, but was buried under the ruthless current. His heart sank deeply. As if soaking in a cold pool, a fear from the inside out was born in his inner organs and buried his whole body.
