Chapter 20 Should I cry, should I laugh?(1/2)

When she jumped in the air earlier, Lin Xi had already seen clearly that the hulls of the two large ships were riveted with several layers of thick wooden boards and were very strong. Even the collision point and the bow of the two ships were only cracked by the collision.

There were no obvious breaks in the body.

Now that the two ships are stranded here, the earth that has slipped from the mountains and the floods have not been washed away, so the people on the ships are not in great danger. The only people who need to be rescued are the injured people on the deck and those who fell into the water.

At this moment, the people on the two ships had also begun to save themselves. Ropes were thrown from the ship into the water below. Many people were also shouting and running on the deck, snatching the wounded on the deck back to the cabin first. However, there was still chaos above the head at the moment.

The rocks fell, and the hull of the ship was too high. Except for a few strong crew members who were not injured after falling into the water and were able to climb onto the ship along the ropes, most of the others could not even grab the floating objects.

They were floating and sinking in the still turbulent river, and some were swept further and further away.

"Jiang Xiaoyi, you are here to help."

Lin Xi glanced at Jiang Xiaoyi, who put away the green umbrella and started running wildly on the boat again.

A crew member who was about to throw out a rope suddenly felt his eyes blurred. An irresistible force snatched the rope from his hand. When he saw clearly, Lin Xi had already wrapped the rope around his own body.

He grabbed the rope with one hand and jumped out of the boat.

People on the hill involuntarily crowded towards the place where the two ships ran aground. Xu Sheng, who had a dark complexion, was yelling loudly, trying his best to restrain the excited people. He knew that these people wanted to help, but he knew these people very well.

If they rush over all at once, I'm afraid they won't be able to help much, and will instead cause more casualties.

Some "oil blacks" and "rock rats" with excellent water properties have already entered the water in several small boats and are heading towards that area as much as possible.

All of their eyes were focused on the two young men on the boat at this moment.

At this moment, their eyes were slightly frozen again.

Lin Xi jumped from the boat. He held on to the rope and stepped on the hull of the boat, running towards the turbulent river.

The green shirt on his body was so dirty at the moment that the original color could not be seen, but his every move made his body emit a light as light as the morning sun. It stood out against the turbid and roaring river below.

Against the chaotic scene around them, this brilliance is particularly shocking.

The moment he approached the water, Lin Xi's feet stepped hard on the hull of the boat. He swung forward and grabbed a man who was about to sink with one hand from the water.

"Lin Xi, throw it up!"

Just as Lin Xi was tightening the rope with her other hand, she suddenly heard Jiang Xiaoyi shouting on the boat.

Lin Xi looked up and saw Jiang Xiaoyi pulling up a large sail like a blanket. He immediately understood Jiang Xiaoyi's intention. With a loud shout, the person he was holding was lifted up by him.

Throw it up, throw it on the boat, and fall into the sail held by Jiang Xiaoyi.

Jiang Xiaoyi released and pulled the man, who was thrown into the water by Lin Xi, and slid along the sail to a corner of the boat, safe and sound.

Although the atmosphere was extremely tense at the moment, seeing such a scene, the boat and the hills couldn't help but burst into cheers.

With a "crash", Lin Xi fell into the water, but pulling the rope in his hand, he quickly climbed onto the boat again. With the experience last time, this time he jumped directly onto a piece of driftwood in the water, and faced

Jiang Xiaoyi on the boat yelled, "Jiang Xiaoyi, throw down the pennant!"

Jiang Xiaoyi looked around and saw that amid the chaos, there was no pennies visible on the deck of such a large ship.

"here has!"

I heard several people shouting from another large boat.

Jiang Xiaoyi glanced around and saw that there were several spare boats hanging on the hull of the big Lu Fuji ship. At this moment, those few boats had been damaged in the collision, but there were two long bamboo poles still hanging on the side of the boat.

On the body.

Without stopping at all, he stepped hard on the deck with his feet, and his whole body flew up and down. The moment he grabbed one of the bamboo poles, he pointed the bamboo pole towards him from a distance like a huge spear.

Lin Xi was thrown out of the river.

Lin Xi stood on the driftwood and was a little swaying. At this moment, he simply leaned on the driftwood and patted the water repeatedly. When Jiang Xiaoyi's bamboo pennies just fell into the water, he had already arrived, stretched out his hand and took the bamboo

Peng caught.

The water here was turbulent, but the water depth was only a few people deep. Lin Xi inserted the bamboo pole into the bottom, and just when he stood up again, he saw another bamboo pole whizzing towards him.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and with a clear shout, he firmly grasped the flying pennies in his hand.

Two bamboo poles entered the water, and Lin Xi "walked" between the rivers with the support of these two bamboo poles.

The pennant whistling in the air...the boy walking on turbulent water gives the impression of walking on stilts, all of this gives people a dreamlike feeling, but it all happens to be so real.

"Xiaoyi!"

"then!"

With loud shouts, everyone saw Lin Xi driving the bamboo pen in her hand deeply into the soil and gravel under the water again and again, and then using her free hand to grab a name.

The drowning person struggling in the water was thrown high into the air and onto the sail held up by Jiang Xiaoyi.

"Master Xiaolin!"

Suddenly, many people on the boat and on the hill let out a horrified shout.

At this time, Lin Xi was throwing a child towards Jiang Xiaoyi. At this moment, another mudslide hit Heng Rongchang's ship, causing the ship to shake violently. Many large barrels of tung oil were piled on the deck.

They fell one after another, and Lin Xi, who was unable to dodge, was hit by a large bucket and fell heavily into the river.

However, there was another earth-shattering cheer, because it was only a matter of seconds before all of them saw Lin Xi emerging from the water again.





In Donggang Town, the acting town governor Jiang Wenhe was still lying on the bed.

His fever has gone away, but he still feels cold all over his body and has no strength in his hands and feet.

Suddenly, he heard many inexplicable noises in the originally quiet streets outside, and a feeling of sadness suddenly filled his heart.

"Master Jiang!"

He heard chaotic footsteps outside his courtyard, and someone was knocking hard on the door.

He felt sad in his heart, but his eyes were strangely rounded.

Because he could tell that the person calling the door at this moment was Shi Qiudao, an official with whom he had a good relationship, and he could hear that Shi Qiudao, who was usually taciturn and unsmiling, was speaking urgently at this moment.

Shocked, but with a hint of surprise.

If the order to punish Lin Xi and him was finally issued, then Shi Qiudao would never have adopted this tone.

He couldn't help but straighten up on the bed, and without calling the maid to open the door, he asked loudly and in surprise: "Master Shi, what's wrong?"

"The dam broke... The dam in Yanlai Town broke!" Shi Qiudao's voice rang again.

After hearing Shi Qiudao's first sentence, Jiang Wenhe jumped out of the bed, sweating all over his body. After hearing Shi Qiudao's second sentence, he sat down on the ground in front of the bed.

His buttocks were sore, but his whole body felt warm all at once, and his illness seemed to be cured instantly.

"Wait for me!"

Jiang Wenhe spoke to Shi Qiudao outside the wall. He knew that he would not be punished this time... not only would he not be punished, but he might go one step further.

Jiang Wenhe really didn't know whether to cry or laugh when he thought that he had been sick twice and had to lie down like this twice to wait for this result.



The middle-aged businessman Ben, who always habitually wipes his hands on his sleeves from time to time, and whose hands always seem to be greasy, is sitting quietly in front of a pot of tea in the inn.

In the past few days, besides eating, drinking tea, and sitting and meditating, he just waited for the news he wanted to hear.

Hearing the excitement in the streets outside today, this fat businessman with a smile on his face walked out of the inn at a leisurely pace and walked onto the streets of Donggang Town.

"The dam in Yanlai Town broke!"

"Our river dam in Donggang Town and Yanlai Town's river dam were built at the same time. Mr. Xiao Lin spared no effort to strengthen it... There were nearly 3,000 people behind the dam in Yanlai Town, but they were all moved to the back by Mr. Xiao Lin.

On the hills.”

"Without Mr. Xiaolin... I don't know how many people will die this time."

"How is Master Xiaolin?"

"Master Xiao Lin is fine... It is said that the two large ships of Heng Rongchang and Lu Fuji were hit by floods when the dam broke, and many people were injured or killed... Master Xiao Lin took risks at the scene and saved many people..."

Listening to these voices, the fat businessman had a look of astonishment on his eyebrows.

"The river dam really collapsed?"

He was obviously unhappy and shocked, but he still had a smile on his face, which made his expression look very abnormal.

There was a crackling sound, and the obese businessman lowered his head, only to find that he used to wipe his sleeves with his hands, but this time he used too much force and tore his sleeves.

He immediately cursed even more unhappily.

He felt that the previous fire was very beautiful. To him, it was like planting a pot of flowers. They were planted very well, but they finally bloomed today, but what they bloomed was a pile of rotten shit.

Because of this fire, a few cells are really insignificant compared to the river dam.

"I'm angrier...so I'm going to make your death a little harder."

The obese businessman looked at his torn sleeves, muttered something unhappy, and then walked into an alley.



In the Ludongling Mausoleum Governor's Mansion, Li Xiping had a gloomy face.
