"elder brother!"

The sky in the east began to feel slightly cold. Shengzi, who had been bitten by mosquitoes all night while hiding in the rice field, jumped up and ran towards Shen Ge. When he got closer, Shengzi's eyes immediately widened, "Brother, are you injured?"

Shen Ge, who was carrying a big burden, nodded, "Small injury, let's go!"

Shengzi carried the small bundle and followed Shen Ge, "Brother, shall we go back to the ship?"

Shen Ge pursed his lips, "If you don't want to go back, let's go to the pier first and then talk."

Since you are not going back, why go to the pier to have a look? Shengzi scratched the red bumps on his body that were bitten by mosquitoes.

Shen Ge looked back at him and said, "Didn't I give you a bottle of balm to repel insects and relieve itching?"

Shengzi grinned, "It smells so good, I want to keep it for the dog."

Calculating the time, the dog should have followed Mrs. Shi across the Wolong Embankment and would not be flooded. Shen Ge felt at ease, quickly changed out of his night clothes, and ran towards the pier carrying his baggage.

If it were any later, the merchant ship would pull anchor and set off. Although he knew that even if he went, he might not be able to see Lin Ruyu, but Shen Ge still couldn't resist the urge to take a look at her.

Even Shen Ge himself couldn't understand this awkward thought even though he couldn't see anyone. He was just like a fool!

As the sky dawned, the sound of merchant ships moving along the lanes became more and more frequent, and the shore became lively. Fang stood up and looked at the pair of children sleeping next to her, as if she couldn't get enough of them.

Lin Ruyu opened her eyes and found her mother sitting next to her, smiling at her, and she also laughed, "Mother, are you feeling better?"

"Yes." Mrs. Fang touched the "birthmark" on her daughter's right eye and the unhealed scratch on her face, and said distressedly, "If your father sees you like this, I'm afraid he will shed tears of distress."

Lin Ruyu chuckled loudly, "When dad comes back, the wounds on mother's head and daughter's face will have healed long ago, and dad won't be able to see them."

"Mom, sister."

Little A Heng, who was lying in the back, also woke up, rubbed his eyes and sat up, "Sister, please step aside, I have to pee."

Seeing his cute little appearance, both Fang and Lin Ruyu smiled.

"The ship is sailing -" Fang Jiayin, the leader of the ship, stood on the bow and shouted in a long tone. The boatmen pulled out the anchor, raised the mast and raised the sail, then used long ropes to hold the shore and pushed hard, and the large merchant ship slowed down. Slowly leave the shore and prepare to hit the road.

Standing on the shore, Shen Ge raised his head and looked at the closed window of the guest room on the second floor. If his eyes could be turned into hooks, the ship that was about to set off would have been tightly hooked by him and would not be able to leave the shore.

Lin Ruyu opened the window and saw this scene. Suddenly their eyes met. Before the two could adjust their emotions and say hello, they suddenly heard the roar of water coming from the upper reaches of the river.

Shen Ge, who was on the shore, turned around and looked, his expression suddenly changed. He threw down his baggage, jumped onto the boat with his son, climbed directly to the second floor, and jumped into Lin Ruyu's house from the window, "The flood is coming! Go and call Dafu, son, quickly." !”

As he spoke, Shen Ge rushed towards Fang, "Aunt, get ready, let's go!"

Little Ah Heng, who thought Shen Ge was a bad guy, rushed forward to stop Shen Ge, "Don't arrest my mother!"

"Ah Heng, stop it, he is Shen Ge!" As Lin Ruyu spoke, the roar of the water became louder and louder, which made Lin Ruyu panic. How could this flood come ten days earlier?

Shen Ge neatly ordered Ah Sheng and Dafu who ran in, "The flood is coming soon, and there are people in the corridor. Let's just jump out of the window. I will take my aunt, Dafu will protect my second sister, and I will protect Ah Heng!"

After that, Shen Ge kicked the wooden window down and said, "Come here, everyone! I will count to three and jump together. After we get out, we will run towards the big tree! The six of us will be tied to the tree. If we are washed away by the water, we will Die! One, two, three, jump!"

Lin Ruyu, who had just time to tie the baggage tightly to her body, was pulled by Dafu and jumped out of the boat. The overwhelming roar in the distance made her scalp numb.

Fortunately, the boat was not far from the shore, and the water was not as deep as the adults' necks. Shen Ge pulled Fang and rushed to the shore. He pushed through the panicked crowd and rushed to the tallest poplar tree a few feet away. He lifted Fang up and said, " Auntie, go up and catch Ah Heng!"

When people are in crisis, they will burst out with powerful strength. Under the support of Shen Ge, the weak Fang grabbed the branches of the poplar tree and climbed up quickly, followed by A Heng, Lin Ruyu, Dafu, and gave birth to a son. .

Seeing that the roaring flood was less than ten feet away from here, Lin Ruyu hugged the big tree and shouted, "Shen Ge, come up quickly!"

Shen Ge quickly moved up, tied the five people to the big tree in circles, and shouted, "Hide behind the tree and hug them tightly. Don't let go even if the water hits you. Third uncle——"

Uncle Ma Sanshu, who was still evacuating the crowd on the boat, heard Shen Ge's call and shouted "Go on" and threw several water bags over.

At this time, the flood had rushed to the side of the ship, and the ship began to tilt. Shen Ge, who looked like an ape in the tree, caught all the water bags and quickly stuffed them into Dafu. Lin Ruyu, who gave birth to his son, continued to yell, "Uncle Ma, uncle Ma, catch me." live!"

When Ma Sanshu and Gangshou Fang Jiayin grabbed the cable thrown by Shen Ge, the big ship had been overturned by the flood and was carried downstream.

There were desperate cries of people running for their lives everywhere, but soon, these cries were swept away by the flood, boats capsized, houses collapsed, and people were like ants in the face of natural disasters.

The roaring water dragon did not stop even after swallowing everything, and wreaked havoc everywhere. Lianyun Village was quickly swallowed up by the flood, and only the fire watch tower, bell tower, and the top of the city were left. They were densely packed with panicked people.

Facing this scene, Lin Ruyu and others who were tied to the big tree were shocked and frightened beyond words.

After Shen Ge pulled Ma Sanshu and Fang Jiayin, who had climbed up along the cable, to the tree, he rolled up the rope and fixed himself to the trunk.

However, Shen Ge did not hide behind the tree, but faced the flood head-on with a long knife in both hands. When a ship mast came straight towards the tree, Shen Ge shouted and cut the mast in half.

The sail that was broken into two parts slipped past the two sides of the big tree and was carried forward by the current. The big tree where Lin Ruyu and the others were hiding escaped unharmed.

"Okay! Mr. Shen has the guts!" Fang Jiayin yelled, "Let's take turns, this time it's me!"

After Fang Jiayin and Ma Sanshu took turns cutting down a few pieces of driftwood rushing towards the big poplar tree, little Aheng, Shengzi and Dafu also cheered.

Seeing how motivated they were, Lin Ruyu and Fang felt a little more at ease.

In the blink of an eye, the flood rose by more than ten feet, and a large section of the tree trunk was submerged. Shen Ge, Fang Jiayin, and Ma Sanshu also moved upward by more than ten feet, getting closer and closer to where Lin Ruyu and others were.

The big poplar tree could still support it, but the wall of Haolian Village, which was not strong to begin with, could not. The sound of collapse was mixed with the screams and calls for help from the people on the wall, and it hit the water.

Fang Jiayin, who has been running boats for many years and is familiar with water properties, shouted, "Hold the driftwood tightly, hold the driftwood tightly and follow the water!"

The city wall collapsed, and there were more bricks and tiles than driftwood. It was not so easy to hold on to the life-saving things. Lin Ruyu hugged the big tree in her hands and looked at the heart-wrenching scene not far away.

Suddenly, her eyes suddenly opened wide.
