Chapter 486: The Flood is Merciless

Chapter 486: The Flood is Merciless
Liu Dachuan was sleeping soundly. This year, the village built a dam, which solved the irrigation problem of the fields. He no longer had to travel long distances to the neighboring county to ask for water, nor did he have to worry about his children and grandchildren fighting with the villagers upstream.

Liu Dachuan fell asleep with a smile on his face.

In the dream, the fields were full of crops. The family worked from dawn to dusk for half a month, but the crops in the fields had not yet been harvested.

Inside and outside the house, and on the village roads outside, there was a lot of grain drying in the sun. There was no way to harvest it all, and the granary was full. His wife Miao and several daughters-in-law cooked white rice every day, and the grandchildren shouted, "Change it up, change it up."

I'm tired of eating them.

There is so much food every day that even his grandchildren are fed up with it.

Liu Dachuan chuckled.

As he was laughing, his body swayed. He became annoyed and waved his hand, "Change it, change it." If it doesn't work, he can take the new grain to the county to exchange for some flour to make some fresh food.

Always white rice, white rice, can’t you change it up?

"You old man, something's wrong, hurry up and get up!"

What a sweet dream! He smiled like a fool. Seeing him laughing and talking in his sleep, Liu Dachuan's wife didn't bother to ask him and just slapped him hard.

Liu Dachuan was woken up immediately.

"Dad, Mom! Hurry up, the water is flooding the village!"

The water has flooded into the village!
Liu Dachuan woke up completely, "How could it be flooded?" The river embankment is so large, the dam is so high, and the river surface is so wide, how could it flood?

It even flooded the village.

He didn't even have time to put on his clothes or shoes. He just got up and ran out.

As a result, as soon as the gate was opened, the water outside rushed in fiercely and quickly, immediately covering the entire farmyard, flooding over the feet and ankles, and in a short while, up to the belly.

"father?"

"Why are you calling me daddy? Why are you calling me daddy? Take the children out of here quickly!" Liu Dachuan yelled.

After yelling at his sons, he saw that the women in the house were in a mess and were still carrying food and bedding. He was so angry that he yelled again: "Put it down, put it all down! Pack up some important small things, and get out first, get out quickly!"

As soon as he started shouting, he heard the villagers crying and making noise.

Looking around, there were twinkling candlelights everywhere. Soon, the noise outside became even louder, with people crying for their parents, calling their children, and the cries of various animals, all sharp and shrill.

On a night like this, the screams are particularly frightening.

Liu Dachuan didn't have time to think about it, and he pushed the old and young in his family out. He didn't want anything anymore, he didn't want anything anymore, he couldn't care less, if he was late, he would die.

"Dad?" Liu Fengshui was so panicked that he had no idea what to do. When he left the yard, the water had already reached his thighs.

It's surging faster and faster.

"Hurry up! Take them to higher ground!"

"Dad, what about you?"

"Dad is the village chief, and he has to go to the village to take a look."

"Dad!" How could they care about others at this time! Now their family couldn't even walk. Without their father as the backbone, the whole family was panicking.

And you still care about others!

"Old man?" "Grandpa!"

"Let's go, let's go quickly! If you can't, climb up the tree, climb higher!" Liu Dachuan pushed his eldest son, turned around and walked towards the village while wading through the water.

"Dad!" Liu Fengshui called him from behind. Liu Dachuan didn't even turn his head, but just waved his hand with his back to his son. The water was wading hard and slowly went away.

Liu Fengshui saw his old father stagger and wanted to help him, but his three-year-old son in front of him was so scared that he cried for his dad.

"Let's go!" Liu Fengshui wiped his tears and took his son from his wife. He and his family went to a higher place.

I don't know what time it is. Looking around, it's pitch black all around. Only the sporadic lights from the torches in the hands of the villagers move slowly in clusters.

From time to time, something would bump into me, float over, and then flow past my eyes.

The family held hands, not daring to let go, as the water gradually reached their chests.

"Son, climb up the tree, climb up the tree quickly!" Miao shouted.

So the family looked for a big tree in the dark again... After a lot of effort, they found one, but the top of the tree was already full of people. The sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling were heartbreaking.

"Dad, I'm scared, wow..." Liu Fengshui almost cried because of his three-year-old son.

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Dad is here." Liu Fengshui tried his best to comfort his son and wife. After great effort, they found a big tree. They held each other up and the whole family climbed up the tree together.

After carrying his wife, children, mother, brothers and sisters up the tree, Liu Fengshui was the last one to come.

"Son, come here." Miao made room for him and reached out to pull Liu Fengshui up the tree.

A villager nearby floated over, holding a young child in his hands, "Feng Shui! Feng Shui, help me, lift my son up!"

In the dark water, a father and son floated over from nowhere. The father tried his best to lift up the child who was younger than Liu Fengshui's three-year-old son. Miao couldn't bear it and urged the eldest son, "Fengshui, hurry up, catch it."

He reached down again and reached for the child.

Liu Fengshui jumped into the water, took the child and held him towards his mother. Miao tried to reach the child with one hand but couldn't find it. She bent down and probed further, but she fell in.

It created a huge splash of water.

"Mom!" "Mom!"

Liu Fengshui threw the child to his brother in the tree, and then hurried to retrieve his mother. The villager also went to help, but the two of them retrieved the child further and further away. Liu Fengshui lay on the crown of a tree for the whole night.

He stared at the rising water with a dead look in his eyes. In the early morning light, the village became a vast ocean. He had never seen so much water, and such deep water.

The roof of his house was the highest in the village and the easiest to recognize, but now it only had a small peak on its roof.

He didn't find his mother, and he didn't know whether his wife, children, and brothers and sisters were still on the tree. That tree was lower than the one he was lying on now.

As Liu Fengshui thought about it, tears began to flow from his eyes.

From time to time, some things floated by, all kinds of things, either chickens, ducks, pigs, sheep, or various household items in the house, or people.

Liu Fengshui would turn his head to look from time to time, but later he didn't want to look anymore, his eyes were fixed on it, and he didn't look. His heart was getting colder and colder.

"Feng Shui, Feng Shui!"

It was a very familiar voice. Liu Fengshui was startled and quickly turned around to find the source of the voice. It was indeed his father!

"Dad! Dad!" Liu Fengshui shouted excitedly, leaning his whole body out.

Liu Dachuan was lying on a piece of rotten wood with his hands stretched out, with only his head exposed. He was swaying with the flow of water, and the water kept flowing into his mouth. He stretched his neck as high as he could, and water kept flowing out with a "plop" sound until he saw his eldest son on the top of the tree.

"Feng Shui, Feng Shui!"

"Dad! Dad! Dad!" Liu Fengshui was so anxious that he wanted to row over.

"Lie down, don't move!" The son couldn't swim, and the tree was still some distance away from being submerged, so it was safer than him. He paddled over.

Liu Dazhong struggled hard with his legs and moved closer to his son little by little.

"Dad!" Liu Fengshui cautiously reached out to his father, trying to save his father some energy.

Finally reached it! The father and son held their hands tightly together.

"Dad, just climb over here slowly along this branch." Sailor Liu Feng relaxed.

Almost all he saw that night were dead things and dead people. It was rare to see a living person, and his own father at that. Liu Fengshui was so excited that he couldn't express it in words.

Liu Dachuan was even more excited than his eldest son.

That night, he couldn't find his family and didn't know whether they were alive or dead. He was heartbroken. But when he saw his son, it seemed like he saw hope.

It was like seeing a family reunion.

Liu Dachuan pressed the rotten wood with one hand and pulled the treetop with the other, moving it towards Liu Dachuan little by little.

It flowed over little by little. Every time the branch was pulled down a little, Liu Fengshui's lying branch would tilt a little bit into the water. Every time it was pulled a little bit, it would tilt a little bit.

Liu Dachuan stopped moving.

He looked deeply at his son, his eyes filled with emotions that Liu Fengshui could not understand.

"Dad, come here quickly!" Liu Fengshui reached out for his father's hand.

Liu Dachuan smiled at his son, rummaged in his arms, and pulled out a purse with golden patterns on it. In this early morning light, it was like a little bit of golden sunlight shining into the eyes of both father and son.

"This was given by a nobleman. There are ten taels of silver in it." Liu Dachuan stretched the purse towards his son and splashed his feet in the water, trying to get closer to his son.

Liu Fengshui clamped the branch between his legs, held the trunk tightly with one hand, and reached towards his father with the other hand, and finally got the purse in his hand.

"Son, you remember, right? The nobleman said that if there was any trouble, any trouble on the dike, we should go to Yongchanghao in the county to find him. He said his surname was Jiang. Fengshui, do you remember?"

"Dad, I remember!"

"Just remember it." Liu Dachuan lay back on the rotten tree root. He seemed to have used up all his strength after the previous thump, so he needed to take a break.

"That noble lady must have seen something wrong, which is why she gave such instructions." Liu Dachuan hated him again for not being able to see anything and for saying so many good things about the government in front of the noble lady.

He hates it.

The crops in the fields have not been harvested yet, and the canals and dams have not been used for a few days.

Liu Dachuan felt a lot of regret.

I was worried about the lack of water before, and now I am even more worried about the excess water. Seeing the village in front of me turned into a vast ocean and the roof of my house disappearing, Liu Dachuan burst into tears.

He chattered with Liu Fengshui about the dam repair, the village, and his family...

"Your mother is efficient, but she is always haphazard and forgetful. You should remind her more often in the future..."

Liu Fengshui thought of his mother falling from a tree. He reached out to grab her, but she floated farther and farther away. He didn't dare to look at his father.

Now that his father had said so much, Liu Fengshui became more and more panicked.

Liu Dachuan didn't notice his abnormality, and continued to talk as if he was telling his last words. Liu Fengshui stopped him, "Dad, I'm scared, come up quickly, we'll be together!"

Liu Dachuan looked at his son, half of his body was already submerged in the water, smiled at him, and let go of the branch he was holding. Liu Fengshui was bounced and his body was exposed a little.

Liu Dachuan smiled. A wave came and Liu Dachuan was swept out.

"father!"

Liu Fengshui shouted anxiously, and saw another wave coming. His father's head was hit into the water and he could no longer see it.

"father!"
