The wind howled, the rain poured down, and the sky and the earth were obscured by a hazy rain curtain.

Residents hiding in their homes became very nervous listening to the sounds caused by the terrible weather outside.

Especially for residents living in low-lying areas, the recent floods are still vivid in their minds.

Now the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it looks like it will surpass the previous heavy rain. Everyone is feeling very heavy, and some of the more fragile ones can't help but cry.

The sounds of wind and rain were intertwined and floating in the air, and other sounds suddenly sounded in the rain curtain.

"Everyone, hang in there."

"We must not let flooding happen here this time."

"Otherwise, the higher-ups will blame us, and we will have to go around without food."

In the violent storm, there were many figures busy.

These people are soldiers who use drainage trucks. When the rain starts to fall, they start to operate the drainage trucks.

Rainwater from low-lying areas is drained by drainage trucks into distant rivers, and then flows outside the city.

If the drainage truck had not been operating from the beginning, there would already be serious water accumulation in some low-lying areas, and it would become a flood by then.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in front of the window and looked into the distance. The rain curtain obscured his sight, but he was located at a high place and could still see many busy figures in the rain curtain.

The drainage truck ran quickly and the rainwater was discharged into the river. Under the watchful eye of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, the rainwater accumulated in the low-lying areas was unable to cause flooding for the time being.

"These people work hard enough."

"The officials in charge of this matter have not slacked off, otherwise the residents living in low-lying areas will suffer a lot tonight."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at what was happening in the distance and murmured to himself. As time passed, the same thing happened in various places in the city.

Thunder and lightning exploded.

Silvery white lightning flashed, instantly illuminating the dark night sky.

Because the frequency of thunder and lightning is so high, the sky looks like daylight for a while.

"Don't let these lightning hit the building!"

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead felt a little worried when he saw thunder and lightning falling from the sky.

Fortunately, more than an hour passed and no lightning struck the building.

However, the situation of the soldiers using the drainage truck in the rain was not good. They ran the drainage truck at full capacity to drain the accumulated water into the river.

If your clothes get soaked by the rain, it's okay to stay in the rain for a short time. But over time, your body's heat will be taken away by the rain and you will easily get seriously ill.

"Why aren't there arrangements for people to rotate?"

"These people are always so busy, even if their bodies are made of iron, they still can't bear it."

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead frowned. His concern had actually been considered by others, but in order to capture the rebels, manpower was needed everywhere in the city.

In the case of shortage of manpower, the manpower required to operate the drainage truck seems to be somewhat insufficient.

Fortunately, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the City Lord's Mansion also thought of this matter.

Therefore, the matter of arresting the rebels will be postponed for a while, and now all manpower will be mobilized to ensure that flooding does not occur in the city.

Many soldiers appeared on the road, and groups of soldiers rushed to where the operating drainage trucks were.

Under the gaze of the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead, the soldiers who had been exhausted were replaced by soldiers who had just arrived.

Many people lay uneasy in bed listening to the commotion outside, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

The movement outside the window continued for a long time. It was not until dawn and the rain began to lighten that the sounds outside decreased.

…………

The next morning.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly. He was not unable to sleep because of the movement outside last night.

Others are affected and have nothing to say.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead has lived in worse places, so he will not be unable to sleep because of some loud noises.

It's dawn now.

Light squeezes into the room through the gaps in the windows.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead opened his eyes. After yawning, he got up from the bed and came to the table to pick up a kettle and drink some water.

It was very quiet outside this morning, in sharp contrast to the hustle and bustle last night.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead drank the water and quenched his thirst. He immediately came to the window, opened it and looked outside.

It had been raining all night and had stopped by this time.

The sky outside the window was clear, without a single dark cloud.

It rained so hard last night, and the sky was so gloomy that it seemed like we were right in front of our eyes.

I didn't expect that the weather would change so much after dawn, which is quite surprising.

The street is very quiet at the moment, maybe because it's still early at this time.

Suddenly there was a sound not far away.

Someone opened the door of a shop on the roadside, and the waiter walked out of the shop. He saw that there was no water on the street, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

It rained so hard yesterday that he was very worried that the rain would flood the shop.

If the store suffered a disaster, his job would be gone, and his family would need the salary from his job, so you can imagine the tension.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the waiter opening the shop and removed the sandbags from the door.

Not long after, many shops on this street opened their doors and began to move the sandbags blocking the doorways to other places.

…………

After breakfast, we came out of the inn.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood on the side of the street, looking at the street scene that had returned to liveliness, and couldn't help but smile on his face.

Just as he was about to get on the carriage, many soldiers appeared in the distance.

Passers-by who saw this scene were very curious and focused their attention on the soldiers.

We were busy all night yesterday, and there was no serious flooding anywhere in the city.

Now that it's dawn and the rain has stopped, the hunt for the rebels is about to begin again.

Groups of soldiers began to search, trying to find out the rebels who had caused trouble before.

The merchants who opened the door for business had distressed expressions on their faces. However, the situation was stronger than their own. They had no choice but to cooperate when the soldiers came to search.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at it for a few minutes, shook his head, then got into the carriage and asked the driver to take him to the city gate.

Yesterday, because of the rebels, the gates of the city were very strictly guarded. Only people from outside the city were allowed to enter, and people within the city were not allowed to leave.

Now one day has passed, and based on experience, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead believes that the residents in the city should be able to leave the city today.

After a while.

The carriage arrived at the city gate.

When the carriage stopped, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead got out of the carriage and looked towards the city gate in the distance.

As he thought, it was much easier to get in and out of the city today than yesterday.

Although there are many people queuing up at the city gate and leaving the city is not fast, it is better to be able to leave the city now than not to be able to leave.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead paid for the carriage and quickly walked towards the front of the team.

He lined up at the back of the line, moving a little distance from time to time.

Time passed, and after about an hour, the sun rose higher and higher in the sky, and the sunlight falling on me became a little hot.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead passed through the city gate and came outside the city.

It rained very heavily yesterday, and there was water in some places outside the city.

Let's take a forest not far away. Due to the rain, the forest is now flooded by a lot of rainwater, and the ground has turned into a muddy swamp.

The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, took no time to get to his destination. He avoided muddy areas and took more time than usual to walk more than ten kilometers.

Standing on a high slope and looking into the distance, I found that the road ahead was going to be even harder.

Because of the heavy rain, there were more swamps, and it was impossible to reach the destination in less time than usual.

"well……"

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead sighed a few times, and then continued to walk forward. He had already walked a long distance, and it was not good to turn back now because the road was too difficult.

It was quiet all around.

Occasionally, the wind blows, blowing the flowers, plants and trees, making a rustling sound.

The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead found that the road was very quiet today. The last few times he came out of the city, even when it was quiet, there were some birdsong.
To be continued...
