Chapter 349 Heavy Rain
The dozen or so people who picked up the fish were all young men, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and they were fearless.
At this time, their parents picked up some branches from the roadside and walked towards this side quickly.
"Ding, Master, get out of the way! A bunch of angry parents are coming towards us!"
Song An Ning smiled, quietly stepped aside, and winked at Song Dashan and Song Erhe.
"Haha, this girl."
Song Dashan also laughed softly, and with his hands behind his back, he watched quietly as the boys who had just talked back were grabbed by their ears by their parents, and slapped hard on the back one after another.
Others took branches and hit their buttocks, scolding them as they beat them:
"How many times have I told you to stay away from the water? You just won't listen. How dare you go fishing?"
"If Aning and these elders hadn't stopped you, would you still have gone to heaven?"
"You little bastard, if you dare to disobey me again, I'll kick your ass to pieces."
"..."
The young men looked aggrieved, but they also had good intentions and wanted to add a dish to their family.
Having never seen such a scene before, I felt scared and guilty, and stood there with my head down.
"Grandpa, we know we were wrong.
No more fishing..."
The sky began to drizzle again. Song Erhe watched the excitement for a long time before he shouted and said seriously:
"We in Banyue Village have made so many preparations, so we shouldn't make the wrong decision at the critical moment.
Keep your mouth shut and don't eat anything dirty from the river. We'll get through this together. Do you understand?"
"Listen carefully, no fish!"
"We don't know how long this rain will last, let's all go back."
When it rained a few days ago, everyone built a few sheds near the flood control wall so that people guarding the river could sit inside to shelter from the rain.
Song Erhe asked everyone to go back, but he sat in the shed and refused to leave no matter how Song Dashan and Song Anning tried to persuade him.
"Erhe, you still don't trust Aning and me?
I'm not young anymore, and my body can't take it anymore from working day and night.
Go back and get some sleep, I'll keep an eye on it for you."
It rained for so many days and Song Erhe hadn't slept much. Even when he went home to sleep, he felt uneasy.
The grandfather and grandson kept persuading Song Erhe, and he could no longer bear it. Thinking that the water level outside the wall was not high and the rain was not heavy, and that nothing would happen with his elder brother and Aning there, he walked home with an umbrella.
Song Dashan was talking to someone else. Song Anning was a little bored and sat at the table with her chin supported by her hand.
"Xiangxiang, turn on the weather forecast."
"It's open."
Two days ago, she looked at the weather forecast and it showed that after this heavy rain, there would be two more days of light rain, and the days to come would alternate between cloudy and sunny days, and the temperature would rise a lot.
But now it shows that in half an hour, the rain will get heavier and turn into a torrential downpour.
The rainstorm will last for more than an hour, and the cloud map will turn blue and purple.
"Again! We said the rain would stop soon...
And the temperature, if it rises by seven or eight degrees, the drowned people and animals will rapidly decompose, which is not good."
Fortunately, she and Old Man Pan transferred a lot of water yesterday, so even if it rains heavily, it won't be worse than before.
She comforted herself in this way, her hands unconsciously clenched, and she looked up at the simple shed, which might not be able to withstand the baptism of the heavy rain.
"Grandpa, if it rains really hard, will this shed collapse?"
Before Song Dashan could answer, the uncle next to him spoke first:
"Don't be afraid, little Aning. This shed was built by Carpenter Lin himself. The wood is buried deep and is very solid.
Even if there is a strong wind, it won’t blow it away.”
Song Dashan smiled and nodded, and Xiangxiang also explained:
"Master, don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. Although this shed is simple, it has mortise and tenon joints, and the joints are interlocking, so it is very strong."
"That's good……"
Not long after these words were spoken, the rain suddenly became heavier. Compared with the previous heavy rain, the current rain was just a minor downpour.
Suddenly, the sky darkened and the earth became gloomy. The terrible darkness, like a greedy demon, tried to swallow up the entire world.
The wind howled, making the shed rustle, and rain poured down from the sky, as if the Milky Way had burst its banks, and the sky and the earth were filled with a vast ocean.
"The rain is coming down so fast that the water can't be drained out. I'm afraid it's not good."
The villagers in the shed quickly stood up, put on their straw raincoats, and went to the flood control wall for a careful inspection.
Although the distance was only a dozen meters, they were soaked by the rain as soon as they stepped out of the shed, and the raincoats on their bodies were of no use at all.
Everyone's heart was in a knot. The rain was about to stop, but the heavy rain suddenly put them in danger again.
"Don't panic, we've done everything we can. Now move away from the flood wall and get into the shed."
Song Dashan shouted loudly, and the young people who were originally panicked also obediently entered the shed, each with a look of worry on their face.
“The rain was so heavy that the water level rose quickly and the current was so strong.
Uncle Dashan, do you think our flood wall will be washed away?"
"Don't worry, we used so many stones to build a thick wall, it won't be washed away so easily.
May God bless us with peace.”
Song Dashan's voice was steady and powerful, which made many young people feel more at ease. Some people stood on high places, looking worriedly at the increasingly fierce flood outside, biting their lips and praying silently in their hearts.
"Ding ding ding, Xiangxiang detected that the flood wall couldn't withstand the rapid flow and was a little loose.
The two-tier reinforcement system has been activated. Rest assured, sir, we will be safe and sound.”
The system screen showed that the reinforcement system was working, and the entire flood wall model was on it. She could clearly see where the problem was. After the flood was over, the villagers could repair it.
The water was so fierce that it swept up many tree branches and house beams, and hit the flood walls with a bang.
"Oh, my mind is in turmoil."
“The power of water is great…
Look! It’s already over one meter tall!”
The water level rose so fast that Song Anning could no longer sit still. With a bitter face, he said to Song Dashan:
"Grandpa, I want to go home. I want to go to the toilet..."
After she finished speaking, she put on her straw raincoat and rushed into the heavy rain.
"Hey? This kid...
Watch your step, don't fall!"
Song Dashan looked at his granddaughter worriedly and shouted twice. Then he saw Song An Ning running very fast with light steps and arrived at the village entrance in the blink of an eye.
"Uncle Dashan, is Aning learning Kung Fu?
It's really fast! Someone without martial arts skills can't do that."
When someone asked this, Song Dashan immediately became proud and said with a smile:
"Yeah, this girl has learned a lot from Mr. Pan, and she's quite skilled, hahaha..."
"Oh, this girl is incredible.
He is a skilled businessman, very courageous, and has received guidance from Mr. Pan. This is a great event for our Banyue Village."
"It's not as weird as you say, I've only learned the basics.
However, in my eyes, my granddaughter is the best."
"Hahaha, this is the first time I hear Uncle Dashan speak like this."
Everyone chatted and laughed for a while, and their tense mood was relieved.
Song Anning was already soaked by the heavy rain, so she ran even faster all the way to Old Man Pan's yard.
"Little old man, don't sleep in space!
Come out quickly, we have to get out!"
"..."
The room was very quiet. Song An Ning shouted for a long time, but Old Man Pan did not come out of the space. Thinking carefully, he might have gone out.
“I can’t wait for Old Man Pan anymore.
Xiangxiang, get ready to collect water and start moving!"
"Okay master, Xiangxiang is ready!"
