Chapter 109 The river rises

Doctor Zeng rubbed his forehead helplessly.

Although the prediction sounds like a fantasy, this heavy rain has indeed fallen. If they had not all gone up the mountain to look for him, he might not have been able to come down the mountain today. Otherwise, he would have been trapped in Xiaohuai Mountain, and his life and death would have been difficult.

material.

Once the mudslide incident turns out to be true, his nephew who was left at home may not be able to escape.

Dr. Zeng looked at Cheng Miaomiao, who could bury his head in the bowl while eating, and his heart moved slightly. Then he looked at Ji Huai, who was sitting next to him calmly. Thinking of what he had seen during this time, he thought that these two children were somewhat different.

Strange in the body.

Such a life must have its own meaning in the world.

Maybe it’s to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters?

Thinking of this, Dr. Zeng suddenly remembered the wolf he met last night. It could have bitten him through, but it ran away at the critical moment. It was really strange. After that, he didn't encounter another beast all night.

It's a bit far-fetched to explain this by luck. Maybe it's because of protection?

Cheng Miaomiao looked up and was almost frightened. She saw that his soul was suddenly unstable for some reason, and there was a faint sign of leaving the body. He quickly tapped the bowl with his chopsticks, and a clear and ethereal sound suddenly sounded.

"Uncle Zeng, if you stay in a daze, you will eat all the food."

Dr. Zeng felt that the chaos in his mind dissipated and became clear again.

He blinked, his hazy eyes focused again, and the next moment he met Cheng Miaomiao's lively eyes. Only then did he come back to his senses. It was like waking up from a dream, and he couldn't remember what he was thinking about just now.

No one else at the table noticed anything.

By the time lunch was over, the rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the sky was getting dark.

Leaving the three children in the room, Cheng Lin and Dr. Zeng began to pack up the belongings at home. They first hid the food and medicinal materials in the cellar, and then hid the water jars and pottery pots to prevent them from being broken.

Lose.

After finishing these things, Cheng Lin went to the fields in the rain wearing a raincoat and dug up the edges of the two acres of fields to prevent the water in the fields from soaking the roots of the wheat seedlings.

Ye Ning took advantage of this time to use up all the rice and noodles at home to make rice cakes, dough balls and vegetables that were easy to carry.

This time I have to take refuge elsewhere. As long as the heavy rain continues, I won't be able to return to the village. I don't know how long I will stay. I have to bring enough food and water at once. After all, there are many mouths waiting for food at home.

Dr. Zeng smelled the aroma coming from next door and asked her specifically. He learned that she was preparing to eat, so he brought the rice and noodles from home to ask her for help, and gave her a bunch of money as a reward.

In the house, Cheng Miaomiao was also packing the things she wanted to bring.

The small backpack contained notes, colorful feathers, beautiful pebbles picked up from the river, and several pieces of clothing... There were so many things that the little hedgehog had nowhere to put his feet, and looked at people with his beady eyes in confusion.

Ji Huai tried to put the puppy into the basket, but found that the little hedgehog struggled violently and refused with a grunt.

Cheng Miaomiao had no choice but to take the puppy out and put it on the bed, and then looked worriedly at Xiaocai, who was squatting in the corner with the chicken baby. She rubbed the puppy's comfortable and soft hair with her fingers. What should I do? There are too many things to take away.

"Brother Ji Huai, did you dream about when the rain would stop?"

"No, the dream only stopped at the mudslide that destroyed the village."

Ji Huai shook his head and paused slightly when he said this.

Zeng Ziji sighed slowly and said worriedly: "Then when we come back, won't all the houses be gone?"

Cheng Miaomiao thought about the scene in his inherited memory about the mudslides destroying the village, nodded seriously, and said: "So we have to take away all our things, otherwise we will never have them again."

Zeng Ziji looked nervous and said quickly: "Then I'll go back and pack my things!"

He has many treasures hidden in the house!

As he said that, he hurried out and ran out.

Cheng Miaomiao snorted, stretched out a finger to poke Ji Huai's arm, looked up at him with her dark eyes, and asked with a smile: "Brother Ji Huai, why don't you pack your things?"

Ji Huai glanced down at her: "I don't have anything."

He was just staying at Zeng's house temporarily. He had nothing on him except the clothes he wore when he woke up, so he didn't need to tidy up.

Cheng Miaomiao blinked twice.

He said proudly: "Then I will share half of my things with you! From now on, we will be good friends. As long as the things I have are yours, they will never be missing from you, brother Ji Huai!"

Children just like to pay attention to details like this.

Everyone has something, but he would definitely feel uncomfortable if he didn't have it. If it were her, she would definitely feel uncomfortable, so she couldn't let him experience this kind of discomfort, Cheng Miaomiao thought naturally in her heart.

Ji Huai could probably guess what she was thinking, all her little thoughts were displayed on her face.

He slightly curved his lower lip, smiled and sat her down on the bed. He reached out and picked up a clean cloth from the bedside to wipe her hair, and said, "Okay, from now on I will give you half of my stuff."

Cheng Miaomiao crossed her feet and said happily: "It's a deal!"

Ji Huai took a look outside the window, and narrowed his beautiful eyes slightly. Big raindrops fell on the window sill, crackling, and the rain was so heavy that it seemed like someone had pierced the sky.

In his dream, the Cheng family has not yet been separated.

When the mudslide rushed into the village unstoppably, no one in Xiaohe Village could react. Most of the houses were destroyed, but most of the people in the village still survived, but Miaomiao died in the dream.

That Miaomiao was pushed into the water and drowned by Mrs. Zhao because she thought it was troublesome.

Not only she, but also Zeng Ziji, who was alone at home, also failed to escape the mudslide. But many things that happened in the dream were different from what they are now. Not only were the things wrong, but the people were also wrong.

Moreover, he was not in the dream.

Ji Huai looked away calmly. At this moment, he felt that the dream was fake. It was impossible for him to be in a place where Miaomiao was.

…

It rained heavily all day.

The people in the village also calmed down from the initial excitement. Before it got dark, Zhang Wei ran to Cheng's house in the rain wearing a raincoat, found Cheng Lin and Dr. Zeng, and went to the river to see the water.

In just one day, the originally dry river had now surged to the point of swollen with water, which was similar to the water level before the drought.

The river has begun to overflow into the village.

The wooden bridge erected under the big banyan tree has been washed away by the water. If you want to cross, you have to roll up your trousers and swim through the water. It is now up to your knees, but it is a must-pass for people on the east side of the village.

Zhang Wei wiped the rainwater blowing on his face and turned his head to take a look at Xiaohuai Mountain. It was still dark and scary.

"Brother Zhang, the water has begun to rise. If we wait any longer, it will be difficult to walk here!" Cheng Lin's voice was blown into pieces by the wind. At this water level, adults can walk, but it will be very troublesome for children.

"No wait, let's knock on the door now and leave tomorrow!"
