Chapter 42 Dam Collapse

Looking at the girl who was almost the same age as her, Su Ying patted her clothes and chased her curiously.

I wanted to talk to her and ask her who she was, but the girl saw her and chased her, then grabbed a bunch of leaves and threw them on her.

She was forced to eat a mouthful of dirt.

Squeak hard.

When the girl saw it, she pointed at her and laughed funny.

Su Ying wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, sat down next to her, and looked at her with big eyes.

The girl seemed to be in a state of disbelief. She held out leaves in front of her for her to see, and kept stretching her arms to imitate how butterflies fly.

Su Ying took the leaf in her hand and asked tentatively, "Is it a butterfly?"

The girl didn't say anything, just kept walking around her.

Su Ying seemed to see something. She smiled lowly, then picked up the leaves on the ground one by one, held them together, and spread the leaves against the wind. The leaves flew around the girl like butterflies.

When the girl saw this scene, she was extremely happy and flew with the leaves.

"Hey! Ugly, smelly, mute, stay away from us!"

"That's right, stay away from us, it's so ugly. How did you have the nerve to come out!"

"Everyone, hit her, hit her!"

While we were having a good time, a group of children rushed over and threw stones at her. The girl was so hit that she had to hide and hide.

When Su Ying saw this, she was furious. She stood in front of the girl and scolded them in a deep voice, "Where are you from? How can you hit people casually?"

"She is mute and ugly. Who can I beat if I don't beat her?"

One of the boys stuck out his tongue at her arrogantly.

Su Ying snorted at him, "Do you want to beat her because she is mute? Is she willing to be mute from birth? If you are mute, are you willing to be beaten? If you don't learn well at a young age, you just learn to bully others. It's simply shameful.

!”

The boy who was taught a lesson was not convinced and retorted, "Who are you who dares to teach me a lesson? It has nothing to do with you if I beat her. Someone who is ugly and can't speak may have done some evil in his previous life. It doesn't matter if we beat her."

Wrong?"

"Hmph! Did you see the mistakes she made in her last life? Are you a god in the sky or the King of Hell below? Why didn't you take into account the sins you committed in your previous life and want to be a commoner in this life? Take ten thousand steps back to say that you insist on it.

If she has committed any evil, aren't you committing evil now? By bullying a mute, aren't you afraid of being reincarnated as a mute and being beaten in your next life?"

Su Ying's words made the boy who retorted immediately turn pale. He couldn't explain it and ran away crying.

The other children saw this and ran away.

Su Ying exhaled heavily, took the girl's hand, and said to her, "Don't be afraid, we are not as smart as their little brats. It's not our fault that we have illnesses. We were just created by God when he was taking a nap.

Son, believe me, God loves everyone, and when he closes a door, he will open a window for us..."

The girl didn't understand and just kept giggling at her.

But Su Ying knew that she was not stupid, she had light in her eyes, she just couldn't hear or speak.

On the high dam not far away, Qi Mohan looked at the group of wild children running away. The sword he held tightly in his hand couldn't help but loosen. Then his eyes fell on Su Ying, and the lines on his face instantly softened a bit.

.

This girl speaks very clearly.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew and heavy raindrops fell. Qi Mohan felt something was wrong and turned around to ask the laborers behind him to stop and find a place to take shelter from the rain.

As soon as he finished speaking, the big raindrops turned into heavy rain again, and the rain poured down, instantly turning people into drowned rats.

Su Ying felt that the rain was coming, and wanted to take the girl back to her uncle's house to take shelter from the rain, but the rain was too heavy, and both of their clothes were soaked. If they went back, they would be scolded, so she took the girl and hid inside.

Inside the abandoned wooden house next to it.

While Qi Mohan was directing the workers to take shelter from the rain, he suddenly heard the sound of the dam bursting. Looking back, he saw a gap in the dam, and all the water accumulated in it rushed toward the farmland along the gap.

Qi Mohan secretly thought that something was wrong. The dam had been in disrepair for a long time, and the internal weep holes were clogged, causing rainwater to flood inside the dam. If the accumulated water washed down, it would definitely flood the farmland. Spring had just begun, and the people had just sown.

Once the seeds are planted, the accumulated water will not be easy to clean. If this continues, it will be easy for the people to miss a harvest.

He quickly asked people to go all out to repair the dam. There were many rocks on the mountain. He ordered the workers to go up the mountain to move the rocks down and block the gap in the dam first.

Su Ying took good shelter from the rain in the cabin, but suddenly she found that there was more water on the ground, and the water reached her ankles.

She went out and took a look. Oh dear, the dam at a high place collapsed. All the water flowed down from there and rushed towards the farmland. If this continues, these farmlands will be destroyed.

There seemed to be government officials on the dam trying to rescue the dam mouth. Su Ying breathed a sigh of relief and saw the dense bamboo forest on the mountain. She suddenly thought of something and hurriedly climbed up the mountain.

She crossed the farmland and climbed up the rock by the crooked-neck tree on the slope. After finally climbing up with great difficulty, Qi Mohan found her.

He flew forward and said in a deep voice, "It's so dangerous here, what are you doing climbing up here?"

When Su Ying saw him, she quickly said, "Mr. Qi, I saw that the water here was extremely strong and was overflowing the farmland. I thought it would destroy the crops, so I thought of a way to save the farmland here."

Qi Mohan stared at her closely, "What can I do?"

Su Ying wiped the rainwater from her face, pointed at the bamboo not far away and said loudly, "I can pick up the bamboo and divert the water from the ground to the dam. You just go and rescue the dam. Leave the water diversion to me."

Just come!”

When Qi Mohan heard this, although he was suspicious, looking at her determined face, he believed her inexplicably.

"Need some help?"

"Okay, just give me two or three people. I need them to chop some bamboo over there for me!"

Qi Mohan took off his coir raincoat and hat and gave it to her, and then arranged for someone to follow her to cut bamboo.

It rained for nearly half an hour. Fortunately, during this half hour, the people under my command blocked the dam and dug canals to divert the water elsewhere.

However, the rain for half an hour flooded a lot of farmland. The villagers of Nanyuan Village ran out and cried bitterly as they looked at their flooded crops.

Su Ying rushed to have people hollow out the bamboo and then join it together until it was long enough to reach the dam.

When Qi Mohan saw her stop, he went over and asked her, "Is it done? What do you need me to do?"

"Okay, put the pipe down and put the other end on top of the dam. Just take a breath at this end of the pipe and you can bring the water from the ground up!"

Qi Mohan arranged the pipes according to the method she said and let people take a breath. As a result, the water on the ground was really sucked up.

This scene surprised many people on the dam.

Qi Mohan couldn't help but look at Su Ying and gave her a thumbs up.

Su Ying pursed her lips and smiled, planning to go down. Qi Mohan wanted to give her a ride, but unexpectedly a government servant ran over in a hurry and reported to him,

"Sir, the county magistrate's wife was inspecting another dam. Unexpectedly, the dam collapsed and swept her down. The situation is unknown!"

Qi Mohan was startled and flew away immediately.
