Zhang Guoquan went to several more houses, and the situation was basically the same as Aunt Wang's. Anyway, they all thought that Zhang Guoquan was going crazy because of the rain, which had attracted evil spirits, so they told him to go home quickly and have a good sleep. What would happen tomorrow?

Nothing happened anymore.

The villagers still care about him, but now is the time to care.

Zhang Guozheng suddenly ran over, leaned against the wall weakly, and waved his hands at the third brother out of breath, looking very tired.

Unexpectedly, the result of the fourth brother's evacuation of the villagers was even less optimistic than his.

Guozheng Lun had only been to Yangjiazhuang a few times, and he left in a hurry every time, so many villagers did not know his fourth brother.

The fourth brother knocked on the door, thinking it was a lonely ghost in the night. He was immediately frightened. When the villagers came to their senses, Guozheng was almost beaten by them.

There was no need for Guozheng to explain why he knocked on the door. Anyway, if Guozheng didn't leave, the villagers would really treat him as a bad guy and beat him up.

"Third brother, I can't survive. Someone let their dog chase me just now. It was so late at night that I even got lost. I ran around this place several times, but I was exhausted. That dog is too hateful.

, if it gives me a chance to take something, I will beat it to the ground."

Zhang Guoquan did not listen to his fourth brother's words. He thought about how to persuade everyone. Even if everyone felt that their house was solid and would not collapse, they still had to make preparations in advance. Suddenly, if the embankment broke in the middle of the night, it would happen.

Caught off guard.

Anyway, the best result is not to live in the house.

Zhang Guozheng complained: "The villagers here are too stubborn. Third brother, what should we do now? We can't just ignore them."

Zhang Guoquan thought for a while and said to his fourth brother: "Guozheng, if so, go and call Zhao Chunniu."

"Zhao Chunniu?"

"He is the village party secretary of Yangjiazhuang. He will come forward to evacuate the villagers. It will definitely be effective."

Zhang Guozheng said speechlessly: "I don't know where he lives?"

Zhang Guoquan slapped his forehead, wondering why he had forgotten this incident, this is not Xikou Village.

He immediately told his fourth brother: "In that case, you go to the high ground and stay there until I come back. Also, don't go into the house again."

He specifically asked his fourth brother not to enter the house, so that he would not have to go back to the house to get the radio again. If the river burst its embankment, it would rush here at a very fast speed. Entering the house meant that he could be there at any time.

are in danger all the time.

Zhang Guozheng waved his hands and agreed.

Seeing the third brother's back disappearing into the rain, he was also ready to listen to the third brother's words and stand on the high ground a little further west.

I just passed the gate of Aunt Wang's house. This house is very close to the third brother, and Aunt Wang knows him.

Then, Aunt Wang stopped him: "Hey, is that kid Guoquan's younger brother?"

Zhang Guozheng turned around: "It's me, Aunt Wang."

"It's just in time. Come, I made some ginger soup for your third brother. Take it back and give it to him to drink. This will save you from getting sick and annoying my old lady."

"Hey, Aunt Wang, I want to have a drink too." Zhang Guozheng said with his body trembling deliberately.

It was indeed quite cold. As soon as it got dark, the third brother took me outside the yard and put a plastic wrap over it in the rain. Although I put on a simple bag, there was almost no good space left in my clothes. I was beaten again just now.

The dog chased him in a circle and ran in a panic, his clothes already soaked through.

Suddenly seeing the hot ginger soup, his body started shaking uncontrollably.

Aunt Wang smiled and said: "You drink this bowl first, and then I will go into the house and cook for your third brother. Oh, both of them are worrying. Really, I heard from Guoquan, you are still a soldier...

"

Aunt Wang turned around and walked into the house, muttering to herself.

Zhang Guozheng followed her, lowered his head to drink ginger soup, and answered casually: "Ah, a soldier..."

"If you serve well as a soldier, your family will be honored. Those who serve as soldiers are all good people..."

"Hehe, Third Brother said that you always help Third Brother by giving him food and supplies. You are a good person..."

"Hey, you kid is really good at talking, unlike your third brother..."

"Aunt Wang, please don't be offended. My third brother has such a bad temper, but he is very kind..."

"Then how could I not know that good people are all good people, and good people will be rewarded..."

In the dark night, heavy rain fell, showing no signs of slowing down at all. In Aunt Wang's kitchen, the kerosene lamp glowed faintly, swaying left and right with the wind blowing in from outside. Zhang Guozheng hurriedly

Put the cover on so that the flames inside could stand upright and be bright, reflecting the red streaks of rain falling from the night sky outside.

The room suddenly became dark.

Yang Lei blew out the kerosene lamp and said to Zhang Guoquan beside him: "Let's go and have a look."

Yes, it was Yang Lei. Zhang Guoquan could only go to Yang Lei.

At first, he went to Zhao Chunniu's place first, but it turned out that Zhao Chunniu drank too much. Judging from his ability to drink, he must have drank a lot. No matter how much Zhang Guoquan pushed and shouted, there was no reaction at all.

In desperation, he could only go to Yang Lei.

When Zhang Guoquan left, Zhao Chunniu's house lit up. Indeed, considering his drinking capacity, he was just pretending to be drunk.

He looked at the rainy night outside and murmured to himself: "It's almost time to break the dike, Yang Lei, Yang Lei, let me see if you can continue to act stupid. It would be great for us to fight openly, but we have to do it behind our backs."

I did some little tricks here, you forced me to..."

Everything went as Zhao Chunniu expected, Zhang Guoquan went to find Yang Lei.

At that time, Yang Lei was already lying down. He didn't expect that Zhang Guoquan would come when it was raining so heavily. After Zhang Guoquan explained his purpose, he didn't believe it at first.

He and Zhao Chunniu thought the same. There was no reason for the upper reaches to do this. It was just causing trouble for the crops in their own village.

But Zhang Guoquan said that he had gone to see it with his own eyes, so this matter could no longer be judged solely based on speculation.

And this matter is too big. Once something like this happens and someone in the village dies, it will be a disaster for Yangjiazhuang.

The villagers were reluctant to leave their houses because they had not seen how much river water had accumulated. They could not realize it just by Zhang Guoquan's description.

But he believed in Zhang Guoquan. Zhang Guoquan had been silently supporting him during this period. He had no doubts about Zhang Guoquan.

However, there is also a fatal problem at the same time.

That is, even if he goes and evacuates the villagers from their houses, will the villagers believe what a fool says?

I definitely don’t believe it. When Zhang Guoquan tried to persuade him, he was treated as a fool by the villagers. Now that there is a real fool, this matter is just a prank in the eyes of the villagers.

After thinking again and again, but no longer thinking, Yang Lei was ready to reveal that he was not a fool, but a normal person as before, nothing more than the village party secretary.

If it is exposed, it will definitely attract a lot of criticism, and the things Director Yang told him have not been completed yet, but he can't control that much now. He used to be the village party secretary of Yangjiazhuang, and now he feels that he still is.

Compared with the lives of the villagers, many things that need to be done are insignificant.

After thinking for a moment, he decided to evacuate the villagers with Zhang Guoquan.

Braving the heavy rain, I walked and ran even faster than Zhang Guoquan.

Because, he once again experienced the feeling of doing things for the villagers. As long as he did things for the villagers, he felt that he was still a village party secretary.

I haven't felt this way for several months, and now I am running even more urgently.

When he arrived at the east end of the village, he did not choose to directly lobby the nearest few villagers like Zhang Guoquan did, but chose the dozen or so villagers a little further away.

Explain the reason to these dozens of villagers, and then use this as the center point to evacuate from house to house at the same time.

At first, the reactions of the dozen or so villagers were as expected. Seeing the fool Yang Lei, they just thought it was his prank and didn't take it to heart at all.

Until Yang Lei spoke in a normal spoken language, talking about his previous experiences, and at the same time allowed the villagers to ask him various questions, and he answered them fluently one by one.

At this time, the villagers were shocked. They did not expect that Yang Lei was pretending to be stupid.

What was even more shocking was what Yang Lei said. In the name of the village party secretary, he formally issued an order to them that they must evacuate the house immediately and quickly explain the situation to other villagers under the premise of ensuring safety.

Anyway, I just evacuated the house overnight to ensure that I would not be in trouble. If the embankment did not break tonight, then I would go upstream tomorrow to ask for an explanation. If there was no explanation, I would go to the town or county.

Zhang Guoquan heard clearly from the side, this was the Yang Lei he knew.

Just when these dozen or so villagers realized that a disaster was indeed going to happen and were about to notify other villagers, a muffled thunder sounded from the sky.

This huge muffled thunder, very far yet very close, exploded near his ears. It was not a real thunder. Zhang Guoquan glanced at the river ditch upstream, and he realized that a disaster was coming.
Chapter completed!
