Chapter 149 Flash Flood
Yang Liuqing's body suddenly froze as she was about to take a step forward. Hearing the deafening sound coming from far away, she realized that a flash flood was coming!
Fortunately, Qingqing held her back, otherwise if she encountered a flash flood on the road, she would definitely have no way to escape.
Thinking of this, Yang Liuqing couldn't help but hold Lu Qingqing's hand tightly!
Lu Qingqing also held her hands tightly and was about to talk to her when she saw a gap in the opposite hillside caused by a mountain torrent. The soil suddenly seemed to have opened a memory valve and all flowed away with the water!
In just a blink of an eye, the opposite hillside was flooded by the mountain torrent!
Several people were terrified and looked at the hillside below their feet.
The hillside where they were located was relatively high and the surface was covered with dense vegetation.
Small flash floods generally do not pose a threat to it, but when a large flash flood comes, it is hard to say.
And the fact is, what you worry about is what you get!
At this moment, a huge sound suddenly came, and the sound was like thousands of horses leading the way!
Da da da!
Several people couldn't help but look up in astonishment, and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see a huge torrent in front of them, like a dragon, rushing towards them with overwhelming force!
However, in the eyes of several people, it looked more like a ferocious beast, pouncing at them with bared fangs and claws!
Water splashed and mist filled the air. It was such a horrifying scene.
An indescribable feeling of fear and awe surged in the hearts of several people.
At this moment, they truly realized the horror of nature.
"Look, is there anyone in the water?"
Lu Yuanzheng was tall and he saw someone struggling in the water at once!
A few people looked in the direction of the expedition and saw that there were indeed more than a dozen people in the water running towards the distance along with the mountain torrent.
Judging from their tattered clothes, you can tell that they are also disaster victims rushing to Chongzhou City.
"Help, help... please, beg me..."
Among these people, a man stumbled to the shore. With his sharp eyes, he saw Lu Qingqing and others standing not far away, and he hurriedly shouted for help to Lu Qingqing and others!
But, not one of them came to save him!
Half of the man's body was in the water, and above his chest was already clinging to the shore. He could get out with just a little effort.
However, he did not do so. He just supported himself with his arms and shouted to Lu Qingqing and others!
Lu Qingqing glanced at him lightly and then looked away. She couldn't easily save someone like this who was looking for death!
When the man saw that they had no intention of coming forward to save him, he shouted even louder, as if he was about to die!
However, he didn't shout for long before he was suddenly washed away by a bigger mountain flood!
"Ah!" The man only had time to let out a scream before his body was submerged by the flood, and no trace of him could be found anymore!
In fact, there was another reason why Lu Qingqing and others did not step forward to rescue people. They had no experience in rescuing people in floods and could easily be dragged in by the other party if they were not careful.
Once you are caught in a flood, the water pressure will not allow you to escape easily, and you will lose your life.
They are strangers to the men, and they definitely do not have the noble morals of sacrificing themselves to save others!
The scene where the man shouted for help in the flood was just a small episode and did not cause much excitement for them!
Seeing that the flood was getting bigger and bigger, Lu Qingqing was afraid that their hillside could not bear it, so she used local materials and quickly made two rafts and tied them together!
If you are so unfortunate as to be carried away by the flood, you can still have a chance of survival with the support of a raft!
Fortunately, they didn’t need the raft!
Soon after they made the raft, the flood gradually receded and finally turned into a small stream that flowed forward!
They waited there for another hour, and when they saw that everything around them was quiet, they set off!
It was already noon.
They were worried that Liang Pei and the two little girls who were running ahead were not in the mood to eat, so they just waited until they found them before eating together.
After the heavy rain, the sun is still hidden.
The sky was gray and looked like an overturned inkstone, a bit dirty!
The ground was also dirty and messy.
The heavy rain moistened the soil, and after the rain subsided, the soil became muddy.
As soon as I stepped on it, the muddy ground immediately reached my knees, making it very difficult to get out and walking extremely strenuous!
Even though it was such a short distance, it took them an hour to completely walk out of the hillside.
Fortunately, after walking out of the hillside, the road ahead was sandy, so it was not so difficult to walk on.
After walking on the sand for about two hours, they saw Liang Pei and two little girls waiting for them at the intersection of the road.
The clothes they were wearing were the same ones they had worn in the morning, which showed that they were not wet at all despite the strong wind and heavy rain. They must have found a place to shelter from the rain and did not look as miserable as they did in the rain.
When the few of them met and asked about the situation, they found out that they had indeed found a small yard built by a farmer in the wasteland ahead. It was very sturdy, and it started raining when they rode their horses to the yard.
Under the leadership of Liang Pei, they soon arrived at the yard, which was a small house with a yard. It should have been uninhabited for a long time, and the spider webs inside had accumulated several layers thick.
After entering the house, Lu Qingqing looked around to confirm that it was safe inside and there was nothing unusual around, then she felt relieved and started cooking!
I just experienced a dangerous situation and successfully escaped from it!
Everyone wants to have a good meal to calm down, and Yang Liuqinghe and Lu Qingqing, who are in charge of cooking, will definitely agree immediately!
"Okay, what do you want to eat? Just bring it up. As long as there is food, we will satisfy you."
"I want fish cakes."
"I want to eat the stomping fish head."
"I want to eat salt and pepper ribs."
"I want to drink lean meat porridge and fresh mushroom meat soup."
The last voice was Liang Pei's: "Everyone has just been caught in the rain, let's cook a pot of ginger and meat soup to drive away the cold."
