Chapter 1188 Extraordinary rainstorm
Once you are bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years.
Xia Jian, who was standing on the balcony, suddenly remembered a heavy rain a few years ago. He couldn't help but turn around and shouted loudly to Zhao Hong: "I'll notify everyone on the radio as soon as possible and let everyone do a good job in prevention, hurry up!"
Zhao Hong's face couldn't help but change drastically. She quickly turned around and ran into the office. Lin Wei looked confused. She didn't know, wasn't it just a rainstorm? Why did it feel like it was facing a great enemy?
At this moment, a lightning flashed through the sky, followed by a thunderclap, as if it had landed above Xiping Village. The sun had no shadow, and the bright sky suddenly became dark, and it felt like it was evening.
The loudspeaker in Xiping Village rang, and Zhao Hong's anxious voice came from inside: "Please be careful, villagers, please be careful. Please clean up the waterways in front of and behind your house, prepare flashlights, don't go out, take care of the children at home." Zhao Hong said several times in a row.
At this time, in the sky above Xiping Village, besides the sound of thunder, there was the sound of strong wind roaring. Xia Jian had experienced this terror, so he felt extremely frightened in his heart. Because he knew that human power would appear extremely small in front of nature.
When the thunder stopped, it suddenly rained heavily, and in an instant, a rain curtain formed in the sky. Even things a few meters away were suddenly invisible.
Lin Wei, who was following Xia Jian immediately, said at this time: "It's so heavy rain! It's not falling, but falling." Lin Wei's words made Xia Jian even more frightened.
Xia Jian, who retreated to the office, hurriedly said to Zhao Hong: "I wonder what the situation is like for Chen Erniu and the others?"
When Zhao Hong was about to speak, the lights in the room suddenly went out and the whole room turned dark. The day seemed to turn into night. Lin Wei, who was standing next to Xia Jian, couldn't help but lean over. This may be the timid nature of a woman.
The stuffy weather felt much cooler at this time. Zhao Hong took out her cell phone and shouted loudly, as if the other party could not hear her voice.
Xia Jianmeng took out his cell phone and saw that there was no signal on it. He said in a little disappointed manner: "Stop calling, it can't be opened now. Are there any candles? Or flashlights or something?" Xia Jian asked Zhao Hong anxiously.
"There are flashlights! But you can't go out at this time. It's hard to move forward in such a heavy rain." Zhao Hong said while opening the drawer.
As soon as she took out the flashlight, Xia Jian took a step forward based on his intuition. He snatched the flashlight from Zhao Hong's hand and was about to walk out, Zhao Hong suddenly hugged him from behind him.
The light in the room was very dark and I couldn't see the other person clearly within a few steps. At this time, the sound of the roaring water of the Xichuan River came from outside the window, which sounded terrifying.
"Mr. Xia! Where are you? I'm a little scared." Lin Wei's voice came from the darkness.
The girl who has been living in the city may have never experienced such a scene. Zhao Hong also let go of her hand at this time.
"Don't be afraid! I'm here, this rain will pass in a while," Xia Jian said, and then gently touched the middle of the office.
Suddenly, a delicate body rushed over and hugged Xia Jian. Xia Jian's body couldn't help but tremble. This person was Lin Wei.
The rain felt that there was no intention of stopping, as if it was getting heavier and heavier. Zhao Hong in the dark couldn't help it, and she shouted: "What should I do? I wonder what the situation is like in the greenhouse and breeding plants?"
Hearing Zhao Hong's voice, Lin Wei let go of her hands holding Xia Jian tightly, but her weak body was still leaning against Xia Jian. She asked softly: "Mr. Xia! We won't die, right!"
"Nonsense! Why are you dead?" Xia Jian said, then he remembered that he was holding a flashlight in his hand. He pushed the consecration away and shone it outside the door. Rain was splashing in the balcony, and it had already flowed into the office.
Xia Jian said to Zhao Hong loudly: "You look at Lin Wei, I'll go to the village to have a look." After he said that, he walked out of the door.
When the flashlight penetrated the rain and fog and shone downstairs, he was a little dumbfounded. The water in the yard on the first floor was almost at the waist. Xia Jian couldn't help but take a breath of air conditioning. If this was the case, what would happen if he went down?
At this time, Zhao Hong also rushed out. When she saw the situation in the yard clearly, she immediately shouted: "Go back quickly! What can you do if you rain so heavily?" Zhao Hong shouted while pushing Xia Jian into the house.
Lin Wei also hugged Xia Jian's arm tightly in the darkness, not allowing him to step out. Water had already entered the office, and Xia Jiandu felt that the water was about to overflow his feet.
Such heavy rain brought such a huge disaster to Xiping Village and even the entire Pingyang Town. Xia Jian was anxious, but he was powerless and could only stand in the house and wait for the heavy rain to pass.
Gradually, the rain sounded less and the sky began to brighten. Zhao Hong shouted in a crying voice: "It's past, it's finally over."
The heavy rain came quickly and walked quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sky started to dawn. At this time, the rain stopped. This transition felt like it was just dawn.
Several people rushed out of the office and stood on the balcony and looked down. The water in the village committee compound had accumulated about one meter deep, which made people a little scared.
The phone still had no signal at all. Zhao Hong looked at Xia Jian anxiously. Xia Jian thought for a while and said, "It's already like this, and it's useless to be anxious. We may not beware of waiting for a while and let the water go down a little longer. Let's go out."
Zhao Hong nodded and began to clean up the water in the office. Lin Wei also helped. Xia Jian did not do it, but stood in the water on the balcony, watching the water in the yard slowly descending.
After a heavy rain, the temperature dropped instantly. Xia Jian, wearing short-sleeved shirts, even felt a cool feeling. When Zhao Hong cleaned up the water in the office, most of the water in the yard had already gone down.
At this time, Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu walked in from outside the gate of the village committee. The water in the yard had already flowed through their knees. As soon as Xia Jian saw these two people, he shouted loudly: "How is it outside? What's the situation?"
"It's okay! I'll tell you when I come up." Chen Erniu said, and then quickly walked up the stairs. When Xia Jian heard him speak like this, his heart was relieved.
Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu were all over his body by heavy rain. As soon as he went upstairs, he gasped and said, "It's so dangerous! I was almost washed away by the river."
Xia Jian walked over, patted Chen Erniu on the shoulder and asked, "The situation in the village is fine!"
"There is water everywhere in the village, but there seems to be no problem. However, the water of the Xichuan River has risen to the shore again. If it is a little later, the river will be in trouble as soon as it enters the village," Chen Erniu said gasping.
Xia Sanhu glanced at Xia Jian and said, "There is nothing to worry about in the village, but the Zhang Er family may have some problems."
"What's the problem with the Zhang Er family?" Xia Jian asked back.
Xia Sanhu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The east house of his family is still two adobe houses, so he asked them to demolish it long ago, but this person is too lazy and just doesn't do anything. It's so heavy that I'm afraid it will collapse."
Xia Jian understood as soon as he heard this. He was not afraid of the house collapse, but was afraid of the house collapse. Alas! There was only such a lazy man in the entire Xiping Village.
Zhao Hong heard the words outside and ran out barefoot. She raised her voice and said to Chen Erniu: "You'd better send someone to check it out. This house in his house is a bit dangerous."
Before Zhao Hong's words could be finished, someone suddenly shouted at the gate of the village committee: "The house of Zhang Er's family collapsed, and someone was pressed down below."
When Xia Jian heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He shouted, "Go away!" Several people ran downstairs.
The water in the village has not yet receded, and the kneeless muddy water makes it difficult to move forward. Xia Jian rushed to the front, Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu followed closely behind him. Zhao Hong followed without even having time to wear shoes. This is a major matter of life and no one dares to ignore it.
In front of Zhang Er's collapsed house, there were people around him, and everyone was speechless and a little at a loss. Xia Jian rushed over and shouted loudly: "Go on your hands quickly, what are you waiting for?"
The stunned crowd began to move their hands under Xia Jian's leadership. As the saying goes, "People's hearts are united, Mount Tai moves, and dozens of people rushed up, and everyone started to move the collapsed mud blocks.
One minute passed, five minutes passed. Xia Jian shouted loudly, and he kept moving the wood and mud outside. Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu were not behind, and Zhao Hong worked even harder.
About ten minutes later, Zhang Er's father was dug out from the collapsed house by everyone. Fortunately, the old man was still breathing. With the efforts of several villagers, Zhang Er's father shouted and slowly woke up.
Xia Jian sat in the water and couldn't get up for a long time. Zhang Er ran over tremblingly. He stammered and said to Xia Jian: "It's okay, my dad was pressed under the house by himself. Thank you everyone."
Finally, there was no danger, and everyone helped Xia Jian up from the water. At this time, he was no longer as human, and his whole body was covered in mud. From a distance, he could not see his human appearance at all.
Lin Wei, who had never seen such a formation, stood stupidly in the water. After a long time, he asked Xia Jian: "Mr. Xia! Are we still alive?"
Her question made everyone laugh. Xia Jian did not laugh, but shouted loudly to the villagers: "Everyone should work harder and drain the water from the village outside the village, because we cannot predict some things."
Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu were like gods when Xia Jian said what he said. The two shouted and took the villagers away. Just now, if they didn't listen to Xia Jian's words, Xiping Village would be like now.
The villagers all ran away with Chen Erniu and Xia Sanhu. Zhao Hong walked to Xia Jian and said softly: "Let's go back! Change your clothes."
Xia Jian followed Zhao Hong to her house stupidly. When he found out, he actually followed Zhao Hong to her house. He said a little embarrassedly: "You don't have the clothes I wear here."
