Chapter 291 The Village Was Flooded
Xie Jiaojiao knew that she cared about her, but if she was asked to abandon these simple villagers at this time, she really couldn't do it. After all, she had traveled through time and space in this small mountain village. This mountain village could be said to be her hometown in this world. Although some of the villagers here had unpleasant experiences with her, there were still more simple people in this mountain village. Everyone was treating her as a lifeline. If she abandoned them now, she would probably not be able to rest in peace for the rest of her life...
Don't say she is a saint. When human lives are at stake, her indifference is even more pathetic, isn't it?
Li Yan'er was very unhappy when she saw that Xie Jiaojiao didn't answer her.
"I'm talking to you!"
Xie Jiaojiao looked at her: "I can't leave."
After saying that, he continued to pack up, making Li Yan'er so angry that she pouted her lips and looked very unhappy!
An hour later, at the foot of the mountain, adults and children were all wearing straw raincoats, and the younger generation were carrying bags of varying sizes.
It was dark and raining heavily, and no one could see each other's faces.
The same was true for Xie Jiaojiao's family. Basically everyone was carrying a bag, even Li Yan'er, and Lai Fu was carrying even more.
Xie Jiaojiao wanted to send them away, but Jiang Ruonan and Li Yan'er were unwilling to do so. They believed that if they left, and something happened to the people left behind, they would never be able to live with it for the rest of their lives. Therefore, they made up their minds that the worst that could happen was that they would die here!
Xie Jiaojiao naturally disagreed, but she couldn't stand the fact that the two of them refused to leave. In the end, she had no choice but to let them go.
Xie Zhili, who was in the crowd, took the bag from Sun Ruhua as soon as he saw it.
"Mom, it's tiring to go up the mountain. I'll carry it for you."
Sun Ruhua didn't argue with him at this time. She turned around and grabbed Tian Hu's grandmother's hand to avoid getting separated.
Xie Jiaojiao also told Sun Ruhua to take good care of Tian Hu's grandmother. If Tian Hu could come back after these two days, he would have come back. But he hasn't come back yet, so he definitely can't come back. Since he helps her with things, she naturally has to take good care of his only family member.
Everyone had a look of solemnity and confusion on their faces.
Chen Shouren looked at everyone and saw that some people's families were not present, so he hurriedly asked why.
Someone was seen wiping tears and said, "Village head, my parents said they will not cause any trouble to you. They will guard the village. If the flood does not come, it will be like saving a life. If the flood comes, then we will die."
He wiped away a tear after he finished speaking.
His name is Acai. Although his family has made some money from growing sugarcane in the past two years, his parents have always been sick. Although they have money to buy medicine and are getting better and can get out of bed, they naturally don't have the physical strength to go deep into the mountains.
Everyone looked at him with some sympathy. He didn't want to leave in the first place. Since his parents didn't want to leave, how could he leave? But his parents threatened him with their lives...
Chen Shouren patted him on the shoulder and said nothing.
Xie Jiaojiao and Niu Er were the first to walk up the mountain. The mountain road was even more difficult to walk on after the rain. Some people fell countless times along the way. Xie Jiaojiao kept an eye on the changes in the sky. After all, it was a thunderstorm, and she was afraid that the lightning would accidentally strike a tree and hurt someone.
It was a dark sky and the rain was falling continuously. Xie Jiaojiao followed her memory and walked at the front. In the team, there were the sounds of children crying and people falling.
They walked for a long time when suddenly someone shouted, "The village is flooded!"
When everyone looked back, they saw that the entire village was submerged in the flood. Xie Jiaojiao looked upstream and could only see through the lightning that the water upstream was rushing towards their village like a beast!
Everyone gasped.
Acai stood there, crying loudly for his parents.
Many people had tears in their eyes.
Everyone was wiping their tears, but many people were glad that they followed.
Xie Jiaojiao was moved when she saw this scene.
There was another burst of lightning and thunder, and Xie Jiaojiao shouted, "Everyone follow!"
Everyone calmed down and continued to follow.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally reached a relatively flat area. Xie Jiaojiao saw that everyone was tired, so she asked everyone to take a break. Some of those who had brought dry food took out the food and shared it with those sitting next to them.
Jiang Weinan took out a steamed bun from his arms and gave it to Xie Jiaojiao: "Keep it in my arms, don't get wet in the rain!"
Xie Jiaojiao shook her head: "You eat it, I can't eat it!"
After saying that, he went to see Jiang Ruonan and Li Yaner.
"Are you okay?"
The two nodded, and Xie Jiaojiao said to Jiang Ruonan: "Protect your cousin."
Jiang Ruonan nodded seriously.
Xie Jiaojiao showed concern for Sun Ruhua and Grandma Tian Hu again.
Seeing that the two were in good spirits, he felt relieved and told Cuizhu and Hanlu to take good care of them.
Seeing that everyone had rested enough, Xie Jiaojiao called on everyone to continue walking deeper into the mountains.
Under normal circumstances, this journey would certainly not take long, but now is an abnormal time, there are elderly people and children in the team, so it will take longer...
There was a section of road where the group had not walked far when a landslide occurred right before they passed by. The huge noise made everyone sigh in admiration, and it seemed like a wake-up call to everyone.
As the sky was getting darker and darker, with lightning and thunder, the shadows of the trees around were a little scary. Fortunately, there were so many people together so I wasn't so scared. After walking for a while, Xie Jiaojiao finally saw a flat place.
He looked around again and made sure that everything was correct before letting everyone stop.
Everyone stopped to catch their breath, and the heavy rain was still falling.
Someone panted and asked, "Ms. Xie, it's raining so hard, we can't just stand there in the rain!"
Xie Jiaojiao panted for a while, then said to everyone, "Come on, two of you who still have strength, let's go see if there's a place nearby where we can take shelter from the rain!"
As soon as she finished speaking, several people stood up. Xie Jiaojiao wanted to say that she would take them to look nearby, but Jiang Weinan stood up at this time and said, "You take a good rest, I will go with them."
Xie Jiaojiao wanted to say no, but Jiang Weinan pressed her shoulders and said, "Trust me!"
Xie Jiaojiao nodded slightly: "Be careful!"
"rest assured!"
Jiang Weinan and Lai Fu were together, followed by a few villagers...
