Lord of Rebirth

Chapter 67 Disaster

Back at the villa, Shen Xi jumped out of the carriage wrapped in coir raincoat, and stepped into the puddle.

Knowing that the owner was back, Nie Ji hurriedly brought the farmers to greet him. Each of them had a pair of dark circles under their eyes, and it seemed that they had suffered a lot in the past few days.

Nie Ji cupped his hands and said, "Nie Ji is guilty of failing to take good care of the villa..."

Shen Xi interrupted him, "How can you be blamed for this kind of thing? It's going to rain, no one can stop it, don't think so much."

After saying that, Shen Xi returned to his own room, turned out the map that he and his friends had drawn when building Fenglu Villa, read it carefully several times, and remembered it in his mind.

Afterwards, he turned to Nie Ji and the others and said, "While it's still daylight, you guys will follow me into the mountains. I have to see what's going on and what's the solution."

Nie Ji nodded, "Master, I'll be with you..."

Zhang Fang interrupted and said, "I'd better go with the owner. Brother Nie hasn't slept for the past two nights, so it's definitely dangerous to go into the mountains like this."

After Shen Xi heard this, he naturally couldn't let Nie Ji go with him. He said, "If you come with me like this, if something happens, how will I explain it? Besides, I can't do without you."

Nie Ji was both moved and ashamed in his heart, so he could only listen to Shen Xi's words and go to sleep first.

And Shen Xi took Zhang Fang and three Zhuang farmers into the mountains.

The rain at this time was actually much smaller than when we first came here, not bean-like raindrops, but like the drizzle of the Qingming period, thin and continuous, blown over the sky and covering the ground by the wind.

Shen Xi wiped his face, walked in along the road in the depression, and heard the sound of water coming from a long distance, rumbling, which made him feel very bad.

After walking for a while, there was no stone road under my feet, it was all mud.

The terrain in the mountain is high in the west and low in the east, but the terraced fields on the mountain descend from the middle to both sides, and the highland in the middle is where the waterwheel is located.The waterwheel draws the mountain spring from the mountain and flows down the river to irrigate the terraced fields.Now I am afraid that the water in the mountain has exceeded the load, flooded out directly, and turned into a waterfall along the way.

Shen Xi looked over, and on both sides of the village in the mountains, the places where there were waterwheels had turned into small streams, especially in Beishan, where a waterfall poured down and gathered at the foot of the mountain, forming flowing water, all the way to the east.

According to Zhang Fang, the flowing water broke through the mountain pass that was blasted by King Pingyang's men before, and flowed into the Pingyang River.

The original walking passage down the mountain has now completely turned into a small river, and the water is quite urgent.

Shen Xi took a look and was afraid that most of the terraced fields in Beishan would be destroyed.

The houses on the north side of the village in the mountain were also destroyed by the river. Fortunately, Nie Ji had already arranged for people to live in the villa when the water came out, and no one was injured or injured.

Shen Xi looked at it and thought it was a pity, the prince had just sent someone to renovate it for them before, and they haven't lived here for a year, so it's a pity that this kind of thing happened...

He led the people to continue walking up the southern slope, and halfway through the climb, he stopped and looked towards the other side of the northern mountain.

"Alas..." Shen Xi sighed.

Zhang Mian came up together, "Master, what should we do?"

"What else can I do?" Shen Xi said helplessly, "Now we can only wait for the rain to stop, otherwise we can't do it like this..."

The other farmers could only nod in agreement.

Shen Xi thought to himself, those who cultivate the land just look to the sky to eat, God does not reward them with food, now the water is flooded like this, what can be repaired can only wait for the rain to stop.

"Forget it, let's go back first." Shen Xi said.

In the past, when the sky was dry and the land was dry, I set up an altar and wanted to ask for rain.Now it's raining too much here, can we also set up an altar and ask God to stop it from raining?

Just as he was about to go down the mountain, Shen Xi suddenly felt that something was wrong. He only saw a waterfall on the northern mountain, but not on the southern mountain. It was really strange.

Shen Xi called Zhang Fang to stop and asked them to wait, then turned around and looked for Nanshanshuiche.

After turning a corner, Shen Xi stood there.

Unlike Beishan, Nanshan doesn't even seep water at all.

Shen Xi wiped his face, if the two mountains had a waterfall like Beishan, then the village in the mountains would be completely finished.

But... Shen Xi turned his head and glanced in the direction of the waterwheel. When he and his friends entered the mountain, the topography of the two mountains was similar, and even the place where the water came out was similar. How could there be a waterfall on one side and the other side? There is no movement at all?

Or, has a waterfall formed on the other side of Nanshan and flowed out?That's fine too.

Shen Xi turned around and walked back, just after taking a few steps, he suddenly felt the ground under his feet shaking.In front of him, Zhang Fang and the peasants were still talking and laughing, not even noticing the slightest tremor.

For a second, Shen Xi thought it was an illusion, but soon he knew something was wrong. He quickened his pace and rushed towards Zhang Fang and the others, shouting: "Zhang Fang! Take people down the mountain quickly! Hurry up!!"

Fortunately, the rain was not loud, and Zhang Fang at the other end heard Shen Xi's cry, but still took two steps in his direction.

Shen Xi had a bad heart, and his voice became louder, "Quick! Run towards the villa! It's a landslide! The landslide——!!!"

I don't know whether he heard Shen Xi's cry or saw something, Zhang Fang showed a frightened look, he turned around immediately, and spread his arms to let the other farmers run to the direction of the villa.

Just as Shen Xi was relieved, before he could catch his breath, he heard a loud bang, and the whole ground shook. Fortunately, Shen Xi stopped his feet in time and stood firm, otherwise he would definitely fall in the muddy terraced fields. A dog gnaws mud.

When the ground stopped shaking, Shen Xi was about to continue down the mountain when he heard a "hu la" from above his head.

He looked up and saw the rocks and branches on the hillside above his head flying up, followed by dark muddy water breaking through the mountain, like a big hand covering the mountain down.

Shen Xi could barely move his legs, but he still yelled in the direction of Zhang Fang and the others, "Run!"

Just when Zhang Fang and others turned their heads to look, they saw black muddy water rushing down the hillside, and Shen Xi who was standing there disappeared in a blink of an eye.

There is the sound of roaring water in my ears, everything in front of me is black, the ground is black, and everything is black.

Shen Xi felt that it took him a long time to wake up. He felt that he was heaving and falling in the water, and even spinning in circles.It took him a long time to see the direction clearly, and he was still floating in the river between the two mountains.

Looking up, Nanshan's waterwheel was gone, and he heard another hu-la, and he found that the waterwheel was lying on the water with him and floating.

Shen Xi struggled and swam over, and finally hugged the big water tanker. Immediately afterwards, he felt a powerful force behind him pushing him and the water tanker forward, and the sound of roaring still came from the mountain.

The second wave of floodwater washed down.

Shen Xi panicked and wondered what was going on, he had already followed the water truck and was rushed out a long way.

He saw the mountains on both sides begin to move forward rapidly, and the overcast sky began to rain again.

And, it's going to be dark soon.

Shen Xi felt that his body was heavy, he held the water wheel with one hand, and threw off the robe on his body with the other.Soaked in the water, my heart panicked to death, and I drank several sips of water. Now Shen Xi had to go back to the shore. When he saw the direction clearly, when he was about to swim to the shore, he suddenly felt a light behind him...

He fell into the Pingyang River.

The waterwheel in front of him completely fell apart, and Shen Xi could only hug a wrecked piece of wood and drift with the tide.Perhaps because of the recent rain, the flow of Pingyang River is much faster than usual.Shen Xi emerged from the water, he had already swallowed several mouthfuls of muddy water, and his whole body was getting weaker and weaker.

How could this be?

In addition to being uncomfortable, I only thought of the prince.

He was thinking, if this catastrophe cannot be escaped, will he return to half a year ago like last time?

I don't know if God will give him another chance.

If he could go back, he must have agreed to go when the prince invited him to be an official, and he had directly agreed to the prince during the temple fair.

It won't be like this life, going around in circles with the prince before slowly feeling the goodness of the prince.But now when he really felt it vaguely, it seemed that he might never see the prince again.

Thinking about these messy thoughts in his mind, Shen Xi suddenly bumped into a big protruding rock, knocking away the wooden stick in his hand.

Shen Xi could only turn around and lay down on the stone, the water behind him was rushing, hitting him continuously.In order not to let himself sink, he had to hug the stone tightly, and if he was washed away, he really didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

He knew that he must not let go now, but he felt very tired, and his back was so painful from the water.

The sky was completely black.

The only sounds around were the noise of raindrops falling on the river, and the sound of the river turning over.

In the past, Shen Xi always felt that the princes around him were really annoying, but compared to these voices, they were simply heavenly.

He missed the soft mattress, the cook in the palace, the heater that was no longer in use, the prince... he missed the prince who slept with him in his arms that night.

If he can still see the prince, Shen Xi thought to himself, he must tell him that the prince has already become very important in his heart.
