The dam broke. In just a moment, the river dam, which was so stable that it seemed that there would never be any problems, broke apart and was washed to pieces.
Lin Xi had not imagined that the dam would break, but he did not expect that the dam would suddenly break at such a calm time, and he also did not expect that the usually calm river would be so powerful at such a time.
Each section of the dam weighing an unknown number of kilograms was instantly broken open and broken. Compared with this kind of power, even the strength of a practitioner seemed too small.
Just at the moment when the dam body broke, the strong wind generated by the rushing river water like countless galloping horses made it difficult for him to open his eyes.
"go back!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Xi pushed the cyan roulette wheel in her mind.
As his cultivation level increases, he can already use his unique ability to return to any point in time before the ten stops. However, at this moment, he has completely pushed the cyan roulette back to before the ten stops.
Because this place is still far away from the safe hills behind, and there is no time to stop, he and Jiang Xiaoyi may not be able to reach the hills at all, and they will be annihilated by the rushing flood.
Amidst a sudden change in the familiar scenery that could not be seen clearly, Lin Xi returned to the time before the ten stops.
He and Jiang Xiaoyi stood on the dam, facing the river.
At this moment, the river was sparkling, calm and beautiful, but when thinking of the scene just now, Lin Xi's vest immediately became covered with a layer of cold sweat.
"Don't ask why, Jiang Xiaoyi, follow me quickly!"
Without any pause, Lin Xi said this to Jiang Xiaoyi and immediately started running towards the hills behind.
Jiang Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, but based on his trust in Lin Xi, he immediately followed Lin Xi and ran towards higher ground in the fields without asking why.
He Zijing, who had already received the news of Lin Xi's dismissal and investigation, had just approached the river dam with Kuang Xiuxian, Shang Yin and other officials. He suddenly saw Lin Xi and Jiang Xiaoyi jumping off the river dam and running wildly. He Zijing frowned in confusion.
He turned to Kuang Xiuxian and others and said, "You go check the river dam first."
"They are running in such a hurry. Are they afraid that we will bump into something? Shang Yin, let's follow them and take a look."
Kuang Xiuxian and some officials stayed behind, and He Zijing, Shang Yin and others quickly followed.
"Why are you running in such a panic? Do you feel guilty?"
"Look at them running like dogs."
The jeers of Kuang Xiuxian and others faintly reached Lin Xi's ears.
Lin Xi didn't have much sympathy for Kuang Xiuxian and others, especially since he knew that these officials came today just to announce his failure. Even the death of old man Chen Yangzhi did not shock these people.
And he knew that even if he swore to the heavens and the earth, these officials who were laughing at his failure would not believe what he was saying now. I am afraid that they would only be able to do it when the dam broke and the surging river water pressed down from their heads.
I will feel sincere regret.
At this moment, he only felt happy in his chest, and even felt that it was God's will, just like the floating corpse in the Yingoufang case that day floated to the dock of Donggang Town.
The dam burst after the heavy rain can further prove that the old man Chen Yangzhi was right, and can wash away his unwillingness and resentment at being criticized by villains before his death.
Lin Xi took a deep breath and ran faster.
Because of the fierce running and violent breathing, there was a heat in his chest that spread throughout his body like fire.
"Listen to me..."
In his ears, the old man's voice seemed to be crying again.
He felt that He Zijing, Shang Yin and others from behind were also quickly chasing him and Jiang Xiaoyi.
"What do you think I'm going to do?"
Thinking of Chen Yangzhi's last gesture, Lin Xi couldn't calm down at the moment, so he couldn't help but turned his head, looked at He Zijing and others and said sternly: "I'm leaving now because the river dam is about to collapse.
.It is because of your conflict of spirits that this result is achieved!"
"Dam burst?"
He Zijing and Shang Yin turned to look at Jiang Ba and then at each other, feeling that either this person had gone completely crazy, or that he was deliberately trying to cover up something with his words.
Lin Xi and Jiang Xiaoyi finally ran to the foot of the hill.
Lin Xi gasped, turned around with cold eyes, and stopped.
He Zijing, Shang Yin and others were at least a few hundred steps away from them.
Lin Xi could tell that none of these people were cultivators, not even military academy merchants. It was just because soldiers were physically stronger than ordinary people, and just because they suspected that they were hiding something, that these people were able to pursue such a high pursuit.
Tight... However, the more this happened, the more he looked at these officials, and the more he saw the fields and fish ponds behind these officials, the colder his eyes became.
He looked towards the river dam in the distance with a cold face.
On the river bank, Kuang Xiuxian was still laughing proudly.
"Look, what is this dam body? It is made of sand and gravel mixed with plant ash, grass stalks, mountain mud, and glutinous rice water. The walls of some border cities in Damang were built using this method. What does he know?
…The dam will also fail?”
Many officials and students around him nodded in agreement with mocking looks on their faces.
Because Governor He had made proper arrangements, the battle with Lin Xi was won very easily.
An official heard the sound of boats sailing on the water. He turned around and saw three large boats on the river in the distance.
One big ship from Heng Rongchang and two big ships from Lu Fuji.
"Master Lin, what happened?"
When Lin Xi and Jiang Xiaoyi ran to the foot of the hill and stopped, many villagers above and Chen Haozhi and others couldn't help but run down, asking repeatedly what was going on.
"You guys hurry up, the river dam is about to collapse."
Lin Xi stopped these people with a stern voice, and made gestures with great determination to let them go up.
The villagers on these posts had never seen Lin Xi with such a stern expression. Coupled with Lin Xi's words, these people were stunned for a moment.
"Lin Xi, are you crazy?"
Shang Yin also heard Lin Xi's words from a distance, and he couldn't help it and sneered loudly.
Lin Xi ignored him at all. He just looked at the three big boats on the river.
Those were three really big ships, with sails raised and overlapping. They were even more spectacular than the Black Pearl in Pirates of the Caribbean in his world movie.
Because these three large ships are extremely majestic, like giant palaces on the water, other small ships on the river appear very small and inconspicuous.
When more than a dozen fishing boats saw these three large boats approaching from a distance, they put away all their fishing nets early. Otherwise, these fishing nets would easily get tangled together by the current when the large boats passed by.
In addition to fishing boats, there are also several pleasure boats on the river at this time.
On one of the cruise ships, there was a teacher in Tsing Yi and a child of about ten years old on the bow.
This boy was sculpted in pink and jade, with very cute dark eyes. He was pointing at the three big boats with his finger, and said excitedly: "Sir, look, there are three big boats."
The teacher in Qingyi smiled slightly and said: "That is a large ship used by the merchants to carry goods. These three ships should be carrying tung oil. The tung oil transported by this large ship that is constantly coming and going on the river can satisfy our Yun Qin San
One-third of what is needed.”
The boy laughed curiously and contentedly, "That's awesome."
“So impressive!”
At this time, the Yanlai Town official on the river dam also blurted out his praise.
The three majestic ships were getting closer to the river dam. The closer they got, the bigger and more imposing they became. The shouts of many crew members on board could also be heard faintly on the river along with the moist wind.
The water flow is pushed by the hull of the ship.
There are waves of water coming, and the reeds on the riverside are swaying gently.
The official looked at the ground involuntarily and immediately turned his head.
He suddenly realized that it was not the ground that was shaking, nor was it his imagination, because at this time, Kuang Xiuxian and others around him had the same expression as him.
"Crack..."
At this moment, the official heard a huge cracking sound coming from under his feet, as if a huge spine was breaking.
The official's complexion suddenly turned pale, and the complexion of Kuang Xiuxian next to him also turned white instantly. At this time, the fat official finally realized a certain possibility, and his mouth opened with an extreme expression.
Fear and regret invaded his mind in an instant, but before he could make any sound, the huge cracking sound and the sound of water had completely drowned them all.
The earth shook!
At this moment, Kuang Xiuxian and the other officials were already unsteady on their feet.
They saw that the river dam, which was extremely wide enough for two carriages to pass side by side, was broken as easily as dry wood.
They saw themselves falling backwards with the collapsed river dam, and they saw the river water far above their heads pressing down on them.
Then, they lost sight of anything and were instantly annihilated by the river like ants.
"boom!"
The ground behind the river dam is shaking.
The collapsed dam body and the violent floods of thousands of troops and horses were like thousands of angry giant hammers beating the originally fertile earth, echoing the old man's scream before his death a few days ago.
No one knows that when the old man could no longer breathe and said to Lin Xi that I am dragging you down, the last thought in the old man's heart was sad. What he was thinking about was...could it be that the dam was built too firmly back then?
A sin?
Shang Yin, He Zijing and others looked back amid the loud sound, and their bodies were instantly shaken to the point where they were a little unsteady.
Seeing the dam collapse section by section like paper, and watching the thrilling flood sweeping everything down, a breath of cold air instantly poured into their throats.
"ah!"
The officials let out an incomprehensible scream.
These officials in official uniforms rolled and crawled towards the hill where Lin Xi and others were standing. They ran in an extremely embarrassed and dejected manner... They ran like dogs that had lost their homes.
