Chapter 512 Go into the mountains to avoid floods (1)
The visitor is Bai Jianguo.
Seeing him, Bai Lienan Qingyuan was not too surprised.
Bai Jianguo had waded through the water. His pants were already wet to his thighs, and the water level outside was visible.
As soon as Bai Jianguo entered the kitchen and wiped his face, he smelled the sweet smell of corn in the room. A wry smile appeared on his face, "You can still live the same as before the disaster."
No, even before the famine, no one among them was free or rich enough to fry corn and make popcorn to eat.
Bai Lie grabbed a handful for him and asked him to squat by the fire and eat while drying his clothes.
There was a lot of firewood in the firewood shed at home, but the earthquake collapsed the shed, and most of the firewood inside was wet. However, Nan Qingyuan and Bai Lie directly dried the firewood little by little beside the fire. , the ones that are burned now are all dried ones.
Bai Jianguo sighed, people are more irritating than others.
Now that the nearby trees have been cut down to fill the big blast furnace, they have to climb mountains and ridges to get firewood, which is troublesome. There is not much firewood in any house. They have been burning for five days and have already reached the bottom.
Even here in Bai Lie, even if they don’t have shelter, they still have firewood stored in one shed after another.
Compared with their family's anger, Bai Jianguo had a good attitude and simply explained his purpose directly.
There are a few houses left in the village that can be occupied by people, but water has entered the houses and flooded them up to their knees.
The rain shows no sign of letting up at all, and the water level will only get higher in the future. Bai Jianguo and other people in the village are worried that if this continues, the water will get slower and higher, and people will be trapped in their houses.
Second, there is the dam ten miles away. Who knows whether it can hold on and not be washed away, or else the village will be flooded directly.
They want to move into the mountains and live in a cave on the top of the mountain, planning to come back when the water recedes.
These are also hopeless solutions.
It has become like this. Everything is ruined, but those who are alive still have to live.
Bai Jianguo talked about the matter and explained, "The people in the village are not stable. We decided to wait until a place is found before we go out. I'm thinking of one of you joining me as a companion and going into the mountains to have a look."
See if the cave has collapsed.
If it collapses, you will have to go to some trouble to find another place.
Of course, it would be better if we could go to the area where a few old men live, but that place is a bit far away. I am afraid that the mountain road will be difficult to walk due to earthquakes and rain. "
Bai Jianguo wanted to find other people in the village, but after thinking about it, it was better to find Bai Lie and Nan Qingyuan. They were both very skilled. If something happened, neither of them would be able to survive safely. Big mistake.
The two brothers Bai Lie understood what Bai Jianguo meant and looked at each other. Nan Qingyuan said, "I'll go with you and check out some old men first. If it doesn't work, we'll look for other places."
Bai Jianguo knew they would agree, but he didn't expect them to agree so readily.
Even Nan Qingyuan only took a few things and set off directly with Bai Jianguo.
It was also at this time that Shuyue realized how serious the situation in the village was. She came to her senses and saw Bai Lie looking for a basin, pouring cornmeal into it, mixing some white flour into it, and starting to knead the dough, which was a little strange.
It lasted half an hour.
But then I realized that if the village had to move into the mountains, then their family couldn't just wait here and get flooded!
They must be going into the mountains too. Seeing that the amount of noodles Bai Lie made is not small, and there is something unclear, they should take this with them as dry food.
She turned around again and saw that Yuyu had already begun to pack things.
Shu Yue: “…”
! !
So she is the only one who is slow to react, right?
