Allure of a Country Maiden

Chapter 176 Landslide and Earth Fissure

The soldiers held their long swords and stood firm at their posts in the rain and snow to stop the rebellious people.

"Anyone who takes another step will be killed without mercy!" The generals guarding the refuges gave the order directly!

Damn it, I braved the rain and snow in the middle of the night to guard you, my teeth were chattering with the cold, how easy was it for them!

If it weren't for the military order, who would care about you!

When the people saw real swords and guns raised, they became afraid and became quiet.

But in such an environment and such weather, it would be infinitely painful to stay for a moment longer.

At the second moment of the ugly incident, the people couldn't bear it anymore and everyone had their own opinions. The children were frightened and cried non-stop. Everyone became even more manic and the scene was chaotic.

In a separate thatched shed, Shangguan Xuanyi and several others were sitting.

"Girl, it's almost the third hour of the ugly hour. Is there really an earthquake?" Di Shaowei was a little doubtful. It's almost halfway through the ugly hour!

"If there hadn't been an earthquake, those people would have rioted!" Shangguan Xuanhao looked at the restless people, and he really didn't know whether he hoped that the earthquake would be a good one or not.

"Wouldn't it be better if I didn't?" Xiaoer just finished her words.

The earth shook.

There is thatch falling down from the thatched shed.

Shangguan Xuanyi immediately picked up Xiaoer and headed for the outer road.

Several other people also ran out of the hut.

But the originally agitated and irresponsible people suddenly calmed down. You look at me, I look at you.

"Did the earth shake just now?"

There was no need to answer, because the ground shook violently quickly and violently. Some people almost lost their balance, and some old people even fell to the ground.

"Get out of the thatched shed quickly!" The soldiers also put away their spears and stopped blocking the people.

The people in the thatched shed rushed out like a swarm of swarms. The thatched shed collapsed with a "boom".

The thatched sheds are also made of wood, bamboo and thatch. If they are knocked down, they will be very painful even if they are killed.

"Oh my God, it was really an earthquake!"

"Ah, don't push!"

"Quack..."

"My child, don't step on it, don't..."

"Dad! Dad!...Don't step on my dad..."

"Calm down, don't push or trample on others. This place is far from the source of the earthquake, nothing will happen!" Jiang Ling hurriedly reassured.

The soldiers also rushed forward to save people.

"Girl, stay still and don't wander around!"

"Protect Lord Rui'an!" Shangguan Xuanyi ordered the soldiers around him.

Then Shangguan Xuanyi, Shangguan Xuanhao, and Di Shaowei directly used Qinggong to fly over and rescue the fallen old man and child.

The confusion was momentary and quickly subsided.

The earthquake only lasted for more than a minute, and the earth soon became still.

The rest will only be aftershocks.

The imperial doctors present also began to treat the injured people, mainly those injured by trampling.

When they returned to Xiao'er, Di Shaowei asked, "Girl, you are so awesome! Is everything over?"

"After it passes, there may be aftershocks, but they won't be that damaging."

"The earthquake here was so strong, I don't know what the center of the earthquake will look like."

"We'll find out tomorrow when we see it. Now we should consider post-disaster reconstruction and rescue work. Busier things are waiting for us!" Post-disaster reconstruction is a big deal.

"In such a big earthquake, many people's houses must have collapsed. We are homeless in this winter, why don't we help? Good people will do it to the end!" Di Shaowei nodded in agreement.

Earthquakes that have occurred in all dynasties are ominous warnings, and rumors that are harmful to the court and the emperor will leak out.

However, this time the imperial court saved the lives of tens of millions of people, turned disaster into good fortune, and also helped with post-disaster reconstruction, providing money, materials, and manpower. This incident led to the people of Min Zeguo becoming more and more supportive of the emperor and the imperial court. . Of course, this is something.

"But it's easy to bend a single bamboo, but it's difficult to break several branches of bamboo! If one side is in trouble, support from all sides will be provided! It's up to you, Brother Di, to get the rich people in the imperial capital to provide money and supplies!"

"It's up to you!" Shangguan Xuanyi patted Di Shaowei on the shoulder.

"Thank you!" Shangguan Xuanhao patted his arm.

"I'm doing it all by myself, what are you doing?" Di Shaowei was dissatisfied. He spread his hands and asked others to get money. The most humiliating thing was!

This is inconsistent with his style, he has always been arrogant!

"I want to command the soldiers to rescue people and help people rebuild their homes."

"It's such a winter, and the people are still suffering from typhoid fever after being exposed to the cold rain for so long! Besides, the injured people have to be treated by me and the imperial doctors!"

"I also know how to treat diseases, but Brother Di has been so kind to me, so I will help you first. My family also donated 10,000 shi of grain, 20,000 doses of medicinal materials to prevent wind and cold, 10,000 doses of wound medicine, and 20,000 bed cotton. Yes. Brother Di, you just need to tell the various families in the imperial capital this news!"

"Girl! You can do it! Brother Di will definitely treat you better in the future, so good!" Di Shaowei almost wanted to pick up Xiao'er and spin around in circles, but he retracted his hand under someone's cold eyes.

Di Shaowei thought of those families he disliked, who usually squeezed the blood and sweat of the people and how much money they took from the court! He hasn't had a chance to touch them on the right path, but this time he must not let them bleed severely!

The newly promoted Marquis can also donate so much materials, how can you, the veteran dignitaries, do so less than Marquis Shengping?

If anyone dared, he would laugh until their faces turned green! I can’t even eat!

At dawn the next day, the court built a porridge shed. Everyone received a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns. After eating, everyone was sent home.

By this time the rain had stopped, and aftershocks were occasionally felt.

After being frightened last night, many people did not dare to leave and wanted to wait until the earthquake completely subsided before going home.

Those soldiers and generals couldn't help but roll their eyes: They refused to leave last night and forced them to leave! I can’t even drive him away now!

"The earthquake has passed. If there are severe aftershocks, just find an open place to take shelter. If nothing happens, you should go back early to see if your house has collapsed. If it does, it is the right thing to build it up quickly."

After saying this, the soldiers also left.

At dawn, Shangguan Xuanyi arranged for a dozen generals to follow Shen Chengyao to transport food and medicinal materials.

Several of them went to the epicenter and were shocked by the scene.

In each village, ruins can be seen everywhere, with broken wood and tiles, and not a single house is intact.

What shocked people was that a large mountain seemed to be torn apart, and a crack about one meter wide opened in the ground.

Looking down, you can see the deep blue sea water lapping and impacting. It is estimated that the crack will soon be washed away by the sea water and become bigger and bigger.

It turns out that behind this mountain is the sea, Xiaoer thought to herself.

This place is expected to become a port city in the future.

The people who returned to the village felt deeply frightened when they saw the formation. Everyone knelt down and kowtowed in thanks when they saw Xiaoer and his party.

Then he knelt three times and kowtowed nine times toward the imperial capital, shouting, "Long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

The loud sound lingered in the valley, echoing constantly...
