Part of the wheat was frostbitten due to the snow for a week, and the high temperature that followed made it difficult to save that part of the wheat. This means that when the winter wheat comes down, the harvest will definitely not be good. If the harvest is not good, the price of food will only be higher.
Therefore, those who have some money in their hands want to stock up quickly. As a result, the price of food will become higher and higher. Fortunately, the snow is melting quickly and the road is almost open, so we can bring some from other places.
The price of lime powder is not bad. There is a mine that specializes in mining limestone on the outskirts of the city. It just needs to be burned together with wood. Liu Xingzhi bought a cart and went back to share it with everyone. That was enough, while others started to
Fill a sack with sand and surround their house. Then sprinkle lime powder near the bag and sprinkle some medicine regularly to reduce viruses and bacteria.
The people on the other side of the river originally watched them busy, but when they thought of the beast disaster, some of them couldn't sit still. Ouyang Qiang and the new village chief Ouyang Xi were naturally pushed out.
Liu Xingzhi was not there, and Liu Sanye didn't know what to ask, so Yunxi had no choice but to come out and explain. They didn't have much grievances with most of the people on the other side of the river. Since they asked, she would tell the truth. If the other party was willing to believe it, then naturally it would be the best.
Well, if you don’t want to believe it, there’s nothing you can do about it!
Although Ouyang Qiang was not sure whether it was right or not, he wanted to make good friends with Yunxi and immediately made arrangements. Not only did he ask people to help dredge the Qiushui River and raise the river embankment, he also asked people to form a guard team to patrol at the entrance of the village.
They complimented Yun Xi and asked him to make more medicine and sprinkle some on their side. Of course, there was a charge for this part. After all, they were not yet familiar with it.
Two days later, the temperature rose again. Yunxi estimated that it was 20 degrees. He took off his cotton jacket and vest and just put on a thicker coat in the morning and evening. Naturally, there would be no more snow left.
The Qiushui River is also full. Fortunately, the river bank has been raised and it is not full. People on both sides of the river are beginning to worry. Many people go to check the water level of the river every day. If it continues to rise, some people will definitely
Need water.
Almost all the cellars in the house were filled with water. If they were to be used in the future, they would have to be repaired. The humidity of the air was getting higher and higher. Even though everyone was extremely frightened, the rain still fell. In the dark sky, the rain seemed to be flowing in the air.
The beads together connected the sky and the earth. In just a short time, the ground was covered with white flowers.
Yunxi informed everyone to save some water quickly. Once there was a flood, the well water would not be available for consumption in a short time. Liu Xingzhi asked everyone to continue to raise the river embankment. In addition, the food that could not be stored at home was transferred to the second floor of his home.
When his house was built, it was higher than other houses. In order to have the feeling of pavilions, all the houses were higher than the ground. If his house was flooded, there would probably be no houses on both sides of the strait that would be spared.
Already.
After notifying everyone, Yunxi started making pancakes and steaming steamed buns. Not only was she doing it, but women in every household were busy at home. Once the flood came, it would be more troublesome for them to cook. They had to make something that was durable and easy to eat.
It is necessary. There is space in Yunxi, but I am not afraid of running out of food. These are mainly to conceal others.
There were twenty or thirty meat buns and sugar buns each, each bigger than an adult's fist. The thin pancakes were golden and chewy. They would be delicious if you spread a little sauce or roll them with pickles. After they were done, they went over to help Mrs. Liu.
Being busy, she can eat more and have to prepare more.
The rain still seemed to be falling from the sky, and the Qiushui River finally couldn't hold it any longer. The water overflowed the river bank and spread outward little by little. Perhaps it could not withstand the erosion of the rain, and the soil on the mountain fell together with the rain, faintly still
Some rocks fell.
On the night of the second day, a loud "boom" made everyone wake up from their beds. The two Yunxi people moved to the second floor to sleep when it rained. As soon as they heard the sound, they rushed out.
The mountain seemed to be split open, with part of it sliding down, and the rain was rushing down like a mountain torrent.
A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and the sky became bright for an instant, leaving only the roaring sound and the rushing mudslides between the sky and the earth. In front of nature, everyone was very small and could do nothing but watch.
A large amount of soil and water washed into the protective canal. After filling up the canal, it continued to rush towards the bamboo garden, broke away the protective belt, and rushed towards the bamboo garden.
Perhaps the protective belt offset part of the momentum. The mudslide washed away the wall of the bamboo garden and stopped at the trap ditches dug on both sides. The other bamboo houses were all good, except for the house built for Ye's family before, which was later built for Mr. Ye.
The house of Liu Zhong and his son collapsed.
"Dad, brother!" The sad cry came out through the rain. Men from each family came out one after another, carrying shovels and hoes. No matter how Liu Zhong and his son were not human beings, they could not just watch them die.
To get people out.
"I'll go over to help. If you're scared, just go to your mother's side!" Liu Xingzhi told him and went out with his raincoat on his back. Yunxi thought about it and followed him out with an umbrella. She felt strange. There had just been a landslide.
, there is such a big movement, even if you are sleeping deeply, you will come out to take a look.
Then Liu Zhong and his son were not worried at all? How could they still sleep until the house collapsed? Moreover, even if they did sleep until this time, shouldn't they scream because of the pain? The roof of the bamboo house was also made of bamboo and covered with oilcloth.
, for ordinary adults, they may be injured if dropped, but there is no possibility of death. Why is there no movement at all now?
When Liu Xingzhi and the two passed by, the roof of the bamboo house had been lifted, revealing the two people on the bed. The two people were lying under the quilt. If they hadn't said anything, they would have thought they were just asleep.
"Dad, why are you gone like this!" Liu Ercao rushed forward and hugged Liu Zhong. Because of her actions, Yunxi could see Liu Zhong's face clearly. That face was swollen and white, and something hit him on his forehead.
Not much blood came out of the wound. I don't know if it was her imagination, but there were faint spots on her face that looked like corpse spots.
"Ercao, let Sanlang's wife take a look at your father to see if he can be saved." The people next to him couldn't help but sigh. No matter how much they disliked Liu Zhong and his son before, or how much they disliked Liu Ercao,
At this moment, they couldn't help but feel sympathy.
Liu Sanye stepped forward and touched the two of them, his expression paused, and then he sighed: "It's gone, it's gone, no need to look at it! Get dressed and find a place to bury it!"
Yun Xi took two steps forward to take a closer look at the body, but Liu Xiaocao hugged her and shouted: "Don't bully my sister, we are already very pitiful!"
