Rescue System: Fleeing Host, calm down

Chapter 71 Riots in various places

At this time, river banks were broken down, floods were raging, villages were submerged, and corpses were strewn across the fields. The surviving refugees had nowhere to go and complained, so they had no choice but to come to the county town for help.

At the beginning, two or three counties opened their city gates and planned to let some villagers with financial resources into the city. After all, some of the people in the city had relatives and friends living outside the city. If they collected money, some people would definitely be let in.

Once you enter, you can just give porridge outside the city, help the displaced people, and gain a good reputation.

As a parent official, the prefect had good intentions, but he misjudged the severity of the disaster.

The porridge donation only lasted for one day before something unexpected happened. More and more refugees gathered after hearing the news. The amount of porridge given out by several porridge shacks was far from enough to satisfy the huge crowd. Many refugees who did not receive the porridge broke out in riots.

The city gates were quickly breached by swarms of refugees and looted. The city became chaotic and undisciplined. Even the government offices were smashed by thugs mixed in, causing numerous casualties.

The county officials and wealthy businessmen were so frightened that they ran away overnight.

The remaining counties, after receiving the news, did not dare to open the city gates at all. The refugees gathered outside the city gates were miserable. The elderly and children could not get food. Most of them were starved to death and trampled to death. The young and middle-aged people organized themselves to rob others of food and property. Women only had

In addition to being tortured, bandits burned, killed and looted along the way, making it like a hell on earth.

The current situation at this time is very different from the intelligence collected by various ministers.

The insider, Zhou Yanlan, did not report it to his father, and even if he did, his father might not believe it. Are there not many such examples over the years?

This time, he wanted to see the wonderful ending of so many years of partial listening and partial belief and infinite indulgence.

In Qingshan Village, after the rain stopped, the flood receded, leaving behind a lot of silt. Only a few firewood sheds, livestock sheds, and shelves were damaged to varying degrees in the entire village. Others were fine, except that the roads were full of mud, and the silt and silt accumulated in the ditches were damaged to varying degrees.

The garbage and dead branches brought by the flood were unsightly.

Under the organization of the village chief, everyone wielded shovels, shovels, brooms, and various tools to quickly remove the mud, and went all out to clean up the village to restore a clean and comfortable environment as soon as possible.

The biggest problem they encountered now was water. The water stored in each house had been used up. After the rain stopped, the two wells were full. Even Cheng Jia could scoop up water with a spoon. As you can imagine,

Today's well water is no longer well water. It is like yellow river water, turbid and undrinkable at all.

The village chief had to ask several men to take turns to fetch water and drain the muddy water from the surface. However, when fetching two buckets of water, one bucket of water seeped into the well wall, and the progress was slow. Seeing that everyone did not even have water for cooking, it was really worrying.

.

After working for most of the day, I could only barely use it, that is, pump up the water, leave it overnight to wait for some small debris inside, and the sand settles at the bottom of the bucket, and then gently scoop out the water above. Cheng Xiaoxiao watched the uncle's mother use

The settled water was ready for Dahua to cook, but she quickly stopped it.

What is this? Can this water be used?

Without a magnifying glass, if the turbidity is visible to the naked eye, the well water must be contaminated.

The aunt sighed and said: "There is no way, this precipitated water is already very good. Everyone has been eating like this these two days, but you can't drink cold water directly. It's okay to boil it."

Dahua also said: "Yes, Xiao Xiao, don't you know that every household has no water now, so they can only eat this, otherwise what will they cook with!"

Cheng Xiaoxiao wanted to say loudly: Sister, there is water, and there is a lot of it, but I can't perform for you, turning water into water out of thin air!

It feels like I can only drink water secretly, which is not good at all.

Hey! I want to get something out in the future, but it’s hard to explain! Is there any permanent solution?

"77, what do you think?"

System: "If others know that you can take out your treasure at any time, it will be strange if no one cares about you."

"So, is there any permanent solution that won't make people worry about it, but can be used at any time?"

System: "It seems not."

This problem won’t be solved for a while, let’s talk about it later!

Cheng Xiaoxiao no longer hesitated.

"Let's do this! Auntie, let's filter the water before using it," Cheng Xiaoxiao suggested.

Liu and Dahua were confused, what? What filter?

Cheng Xiaoxiao ran to his aunt's room. At this time, Cheng Chudong and Dalan were making winter clothes. Seeing Cheng Xiaoxiao coming in, Cheng Chudong asked with a smile: "Xiao Xiao, what's the matter?"

"Auntie, do you still have the gauze from before?"

Cheng Chudong nodded.

Dalan took out the gauze that Cheng Xiaoxiao bought last time from the box on the side. This kind of cloth is similar to Xiaobu, but it is softer, more delicate, lighter and more breathable than Xiaobu. It was customized by Boss Yun last time.

"Auntie, help me make this cloth into such a big circle, leaving a place for the bamboo strips on the side." She said while making gestures.

While helping to cut, Dalan asked: "Xiao Xiao, what are you doing this for?"

"Filtered water!"

"What is filtered water?" Da Lan asked puzzledly.

"Now, the well water in our village is too turbid. I'm afraid everyone will have diarrhea."

"Then after drinking the filtered water, will there be no diarrhea?"

Cheng Chudong said with a smile: "How can it be so magical?"

"That's right, it's not so magical. It just filters out some bacteria and sources of infection."

There is no cotton or activated carbon, so I can only put some pebbles and make do with it. I just checked the system mall and found that a filter device costs 800 coins. The coins she worked hard to earn must be used wisely.

So I can only do it myself, keep it simple!

Let's just use it for now. If she really takes out the filter, it will be difficult to explain.

"What are bacteria? What is the source of the infection?" Dalan looked confused. She couldn't understand what Xiao Xiao said.

Come on, the more you explain, the more complicated it gets.

"Well, it's something mixed in the water. We can't see it with the naked eye. However, eating bacteria can cause diarrhea."

Cheng Xiaoxiao could only give a general explanation.

Da Lan nodded in understanding.

At this time, all the errand boys were practicing calligraphy, so she had no choice but to do it by herself, "Auntie, you do it first. It's best to do more. I'll go out first."

Cheng Xiaoxiao quickly picked up a pile of small stones and came back.

Da Lan brought over the finished gauze and showed it to Cheng Xiaoxiao.

Cheng Xiaoxiao was very satisfied and began to use existing tools to make a simple version of the filter. He originally wanted his uncle to make the support frame, but unfortunately all the men in the family went out to clean up the mud.

She had been working on it for a while but still couldn't finish it. Several children who were practicing calligraphy heard the commotion outside and ran out to watch the fun. Among them was Cheng Liangmu.

Finally, it was Cheng Liangmu who helped make the support frame. As expected, he is a professional bamboo craftsman, half as good as his father at a young age.

Dahua looked at the little guys with great interest and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid that my second brother will come back and see you guys being lazy!"
