Li Wenjin likes to watch Xu Zhiyan eat. Sometimes she is just given something very ordinary, and she can eat it with a satisfied look on her face.

Xu Zhiyan has now learned to block his sight, and is eating beautifully by herself, and even feeds him a bite from time to time.

He stopped eating after a few bites.

"I'm not hungry. You eat. When you're full, I'll take you back."

Xu Zhiyan was worried that it would take him too much time, so she stuffed the remaining piece into her mouth. Fortunately, although this was fried, it was relatively moist. She chewed it a few times and it fell apart. Otherwise, she would have choked to death.

Li Wenjin was still worried about feeding soup to others, so she breathed a sigh of relief after making sure she had swallowed it well.

"Don't eat like this again. No matter how much time you spend, I'll be waiting for you."

She nuzzled him cheek to cheek obediently.

"I know, there's no next time."

Seeing that she was so good, Li Wenjin said nothing and sent her back to the house.

After Xu Zhiyan washed up, she sat on the bed and looked at the increasingly heavy rain outside through the half-open window, and sighed for a long time.

"When will this rain stop?"

Xiaoxi, who was cleaning up the house, looked up when he heard this.

"It's not that fast. When I was a kid, I saw such heavy rain. It took ten days and a half to stop. The people all suffered. Not only the crops were dead, but the few clothes they had were just It can be dried by body temperature, and if it is used frequently, many people will get sick."

Weather like this makes it easy for people to get sick, and if you wear wet clothes, you will definitely get sick.

She pursed her lips and suddenly made a sound after a while.

"Has the food arrived today?"

Xiaoxi thought for a moment and said, "No, but I have received news. It will arrive tomorrow at most."

[Tomorrow, it will rain so heavily, I hope nothing unexpected happens. 】

But Youdao became more and more afraid of something. Although there was no accident in the convoy, Xu Zhiyan was woken up by a loud sound when it was about to dawn. She stood up suddenly and Xiaoxi, who had been guarding her, reacted quickly. The oil lamp comforted her.

"Don't be afraid, miss. It seems that a house has collapsed due to the rain."

This family's house is small, and they have always cooked and other things outside the house. They didn't have money to build a tile shed, so they just used thatch and other materials to build a small shed with the strength of the house.

As a result, it rained too much this time, and water accumulated on the roof of the shed for some reason. It collapsed without being cleaned in time, and the tiles of nearby houses were also pulled down.

Xu Zhiyan looked at the messy scene and called for people to save people quickly.

The quality of this family's house is really poor. Originally, only half of the tiles were removed, not the half that was meant for people to stay. Logically speaking, there would be no danger.

That family didn't think there was any danger, so they went to rescue the buried things. As a result, the earth wall fell down, and the whole family was buried.

Xiaoxi struggled to hold an oil-paper umbrella for his young lady. When he saw someone going to rescue her, he persuaded her to go back.

"Miss, there is nothing we can do to help you next. If you come out to blow the cold wind right after you wake up, you will get sick."

"I'm not afraid of getting sick. You don't need to hold an umbrella for me anymore. I'm wearing a raincoat. You should quickly lead someone to set up a shed nearby to provide shelter for the injured."

Xiaoxi couldn't resist her and had no choice but to be obedient. He would look at her from time to time while working to make sure she was okay before continuing to work. After the shed was set up, the rescuers finally found someone.

Xu Zhiyan squeezed through the crowd and stepped forward to take a closer look. All she saw was a piece of back in the mud, and her posture was bowed. What made her heart skip a beat was the abnormal bulge on her spine.

If I guessed correctly, this is broken.

And people with broken spines will never survive.

Sure enough, when the man was dug out completely, he was already confirmed dead, but his wife and children, whom he protected until his death, were fine.

The wife gave the child to the rescuer, staggered towards her husband, looked at his frozen posture, and cried out, "You are stupid, why do you have to protect us? We will all die together!"

Xu Zhiyan gave her enough time to vent before stepping forward and forcefully pulling her up.

"Get up first, the man is dead. Only if you live well can you be considered worthy of his sacrifice. Be good, put away your tears, and take your son with me to drink some hot food to warm yourself up."

"Your husband will have someone to deal with it and ensure that he will not be buried in this position."

The wife was already dazed at this moment. She was pulled away by Xu Zhiyan, but her eyes did not leave her husband. Until she could no longer see him, her eyes slowly turned.

"Is this a nightmare? Is everything fine when I wake up?"

Her voice was soft and thin, like the feeling of suddenly waking up from a warm and warm sleep in bed, and talking softly to the person beside her pillow, but the person beside her pillow could never respond to her.

Xu Zhiyan's nose felt sore and she hugged the person.

"Yes, it's all a nightmare. There is a temporary shed over there with a resting place. After you have eaten, you can take the child to take a bath and sleep, and then you will be fine."

The pain of losing a family member cannot be comforted by words. You can only let people do other things to occupy their minds. Don't be immersed in sadness all the time.

Fortunately, she was still confused and could be easily persuaded by Xu Zhiyan.

But Xu Zhiyan still didn't dare to rest assured. After seeing the people packed up and entering the house, she went out quietly. She specifically asked someone to help guard the mother and son before returning to the scene. With her commanding the formation, the scene was quickly tidied up. .

She looked at the half-collapsed house in front of her and sighed, finding a place to sit down.

[After all calculations, I still missed this crisis. On the way here, I seemed to see many houses similar to this family's, which means that they are also in danger of collapse. 】

Xu Yanqing came over at some point, sat next to her, and spoke suddenly.

"Do you feel that you are insignificant before the natural disaster?"

She moved a few times and lay on his shoulder.

The rain hit her body a little painfully, and her face was wrinkled.

"Yeah, I feel like I've thought it through beforehand, but there are still casualties."

"There is a saying you may not like to hear, but it is indeed true. Since ancient times, people have been in dire straits when encountering natural disasters, especially heavy rains like this. However, there have been no major changes in Yutian County since the rains until now. ."

Many natural disasters, such as locust plagues, will be accompanied by man-made disasters. Especially in this situation, people can easily riot. But so far, there has only been one casualty, which is considered very good.

Xu Zhiyan understood what Xu Yanqing meant.

"But I always feel like I can do better."

"Don't think about this, you will be trapped like this."

"Well, let me tell you good news. You have just completed the moat. The water in the streets has been greatly improved. Food has also arrived. The quantity is huge and enough for the people to share, which can effectively reduce the possibility of riots."
