Wearing the cannon fodder little koi in the imperial examination essay

After night fell, Yu Su signaled Song Xinglin to light a torch, firstly for illumination and secondly to observe the rising water level under the city wall.

After going through a thrilling hustle and finally settled down, everyone felt very tired and hungry, especially the little granddaughter in Mrs. Feng's arms. The little girl nestled in Mrs. Feng's arms and kept pulling her grandma's arm Shout out hungry.

The grandparent and grandson were unable to move and ran slowly, and hurried out to flee for their lives in a panic. They didn't bring anything to eat except some gold and silver.

Not only Xiao Niuniu, but the youngest Zhao Xiaohe in the Zhao family was also hungry, but the Zhao family only brought dry food such as fried rice.

Seeing this, Yu Su asked the second younger sister to take off the pannier she had been carrying all the time, and took out the prepared food inside to share among the three families.

It was only at this time that we started to evacuate, and everyone still had some food in their hands, so we took it out and ate it blatantly, and it wouldn't cause people to get pink eye disease.

Although Aunt Zhao also prepared some dry food, but when Yu Su gave them some warm food, Aunt Zhao thanked her again and again, and hurriedly stuffed the dry food in her hand into Yu Su's hand, and then put the warm food into Yu Su's hand. The meals were passed to the three children to share.

The three families were in this vast ocean, on the only standing city wall. After dinner, everyone huddled in a corner of the city wall, and the three families formed horns and hugged each other to keep warm.

Yu Su saw that the second younger sister and sister Mei Hua hugged each other to keep warm, so she curled up in her little husband's arms with peace of mind, and gradually fell asleep in a bewildered state.

The night was quiet, only the sound of the flood flowing under the city wall, the sound of the city wall being hit, occasionally mixed with the whispers of the victims, the crying of children, bitter prayers, and the occasional crackling of the torches beside you...

Yu Su had a dream, and the dream was not a good one.

It is true to think about it every day and dream at night.

During the day, after running away from the flood, unfortunately, she couldn’t escape the curse of water at night, Yu Su actually dreamed of herself, being chased by the torrential flood like a tsunami, she had pity on her short legs. Slowly, one fell, and the flood flooded down towards him. Yu Su subconsciously felt his face was cold, and when he thought about it, he immediately felt that something was wrong.

This is a dream, how can it feel so real?
Sensing that something was wrong, Yu Su subconsciously wiped her face, and her tentacles were cold and wet. She opened her eyes and took a look, okay, damn it, it's just that the weather is not good. People have been working hard for several months, but now it is raining, and there is a trend of getting bigger and bigger.

Everyone on the city wall also woke up from the cold falling rain. Some cried, some scolded, some yelled that God would not give them a way to live. A loud curse woke up the rest of the people who were still asleep.

Seeing that the person in his arms woke up, Song Xinglin hurriedly signaled Yu Su to get up.

"Yuyu, it's raining, it looks like it's going to rain more and more, and it won't stop easily..."

What's more cruel is that the only archery tower with a roof in front of it has long been occupied by the city gate and the soldiers guarding the city, and the narrow corridor outside the narrow eaves has long been occupied by people.

I have a weakness, and I am no longer the lonely and reckless man I used to be. Under such a catastrophe, I can't single-handedly go up to snatch the narrow place and make everyone angry. portion.

In order to protect his wife in such an unstable situation, Song Xinglin did not act recklessly, thinking that the snatching would not work, so he had to think of other ways to avoid the rain.

He turned his gaze to the vast ocean in the city, and frowned at Yu Su, "Yuyu, I have to look for something to see if I can find something that can keep out the wind and rain, we have to build a shed to shelter from the rain, otherwise, Before tomorrow morning, we'll all be drowned."

Yu Su also understood that in the current situation, they were trapped on the city wall, if they really got caught in the rain and caught a cold, what awaited them would be death.

She also agrees with Song Xinglin's decision very much, but the problem is, there is a sea of ​​water everywhere, no matter how capable the young man is, where can he find useful things?

Still muttering in his heart, Catcher Zhao, who was awake, listened to their conversation, and Catcher Zhao hurried over.

"Xiaoyu, what Xinglin said is right. Your aunt and Xinglin are in good health. It's okay to get a little rain, but you and your sister Meihua are still children and have weak bones. What if you get sick in the rain? Okay, let's go, uncle and Xinglin will go find it together, it doesn't matter what it is, as long as it can shelter from the wind and rain."

Seeing that the rain tended to rain heavily, and the city walls became a mess, Catcher Zhao didn't dare to delay any longer. While talking, he stuffed the sleepy and staring child in his wife's arms, and the people who pulled Song Xinglin were about to Go, but Yu Su hurriedly stopped him.

Zhao Tuotou frowned, "What's the matter, Xiaoyu? Don't make trouble, you little girl, you should get out of the way quickly, time is running out."

Seeing that Yu Su was going to make trouble, Zhao Catcher's face turned dark, but Yu Su hurriedly looked at Song Xinglin, and blinked at him. While blinking, she hurriedly explained.

"No, Uncle Zhao, don't worry, when I stood up just now, I saw a big thing in the water over there, it looked like linoleum..."

Before Yu Su could finish his words, Catcher Zhao immediately jumped up excitedly. He still noticed that there was someone around him who kept looking at him, so Catcher Zhao suppressed his excited heart and pulled him down. Yu Su raised his small arm pointing the direction, and approached Yu Su cautiously.

That appearance, that vigilance, I'm really afraid that if my voice is louder, the people around me will find something good they found.

"Little fish, tell uncle, did you really see the linoleum?"

Yu Su, who was lying at all, felt guilty, and hurriedly evaded his words, not daring to look into Zhao Butou's eyes and nodded, "Uncle Zhao, I'm not sure, but I look like it, so I said, let me follow my little brother We went to see it together."

Yu Su: She will be a ghost if she sees it!
With her height, she is not as tall as the lookout when she stands up. What she said just now was just an excuse.

She knew very well that under such circumstances, it was impossible for the young man to find useful things to build a shack, and in her shrunk small baggage, there was a large piece of linoleum cloth that was usually used to build rainproof and sunproof sheds when they went out of the stall. I just said that subconsciously.

It's also a pity that Catcher Zhao was concerned and confused, and didn't find this obvious loophole. He was still full of hope at this moment, and excitedly pulled Yu Su to question.

After Catcher Zhao finished listening to Yu Su's words, his mood went up and down like a roller coaster, he was disappointed, but also hopeful.

He simply didn't think too much about it. Seeing that the rain was getting heavier, Catcher Zhao immediately made a decision, grabbed Yu Su's hand and left, "Okay, no matter whether it is or not, let's go over and have a look first, let's go, Xiaoyu Girl, you lead the way ahead."

Yu Su was dumbfounded...how could this be different from what he planned and imagined?
She looked at Song Xinglin, who was two steps behind Zhao Butou, as if asking for help.

Song Xinglin had already received the reminder from Yu Su's blink of an eye just now. Seeing his guest jumping anxiously, if the current situation did not allow it, he would almost have been amused by the appearance of the little guest.

At any rate, knowing the seriousness of the matter, Song Xinglin turned his head, and hurriedly grabbed the little hand that Zhao Butou was holding tightly, and hugged the owner of the little hand into his arms along the way.

Seeing Zhao Butou turn his head angrily, Song Xinglin leaned forward, approached the anxious Zhao Butou and explained in a low voice.

"Uncle, don't move, look, people around are watching us, we must not make a big noise! ​​And Uncle Zhao, nephew thinks, you should stay here to protect everyone's safety, Yuyu and I are young, so if we find an excuse to go and come back quickly, it won't attract everyone's attention, unlike you, this outfit is really too conspicuous, so let's go as a husband and wife."

Hearing what Song Xinglin said, Zhao Catcher propped his head up and looked around, seeing the eyes of those around him staring at him, he secretly thought something was wrong, but he also knew what Song Xinglin said was right.

Catcher Zhao could tell the seriousness and urgency of the matter clearly, so he was not hypocritical. He nodded decisively, and repeatedly told the young couple to be careful. If you really can't find anything, don't worry, and make sure you are safe before you come back. After everyone discussed it again, Song Xinglin and Yu Su hurriedly nodded in agreement, and the young couple hurriedly ran towards the direction they were pointing just now under Zhao Butou's concerned gaze.

Because the flood came so suddenly, the old people at the wharf subconsciously ran towards the south gate, and it was too late to close the south gate. Therefore, the county magistrate Wang had to order urgently to let the people of the city go from the other three The city gate fled for his life, and this caused the entire Tongyang City to be soaked in the flood.

The direction Yu Su pointed was not outside the city, but inside the city.

At this time in the city, because the whole city was soaked in water, the relatively light things that were not taken away by each household began to float along with the water level as the water level rose.

Some floated out from the gate of the city along the current, and drifted away;

Some were carried by the current, gathered in various parts of the city, and drifted back and forth in a whirl;

When Yu Su led Song Xinglin to run towards the remaining section of the stone staircase on the city wall, many people had already come towards the stone staircase here. Not only did they come, but many of them were still holding things in their hands. It also looks like they are here to salvage things and want to build a rainproof shelter, or to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune.

There are so many people that it is not easy to operate, Yu Su looked around and frowned, and finally there was nothing to do, Yu Su thought about whether they should find a secluded place before doing it, but Song Xinglin made a decision first.

Song Xinglin knew very well that in the current situation, as long as they were still on the city wall, they would have no secluded place to stay, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was majestic.

In order to prevent the little guest from revealing her secret, Song Xinglin first glanced at the street closest to the city wall, which had already been submerged, and finally landed on a not far away, where there was still a roof ridge standing in the flood Daiwa roof.

From the looks of it, it should be a two-story car shop on North Street, near the city wall.

Song Xinglin didn't say a word, didn't explain much, he picked up Yu Su neatly, and after a run-up back, he leaped vigorously. With the help of floating objects floating on the water surface, Song Xinglin tapped lightly with his strength, regardless of the people behind him. He gasped in astonishment and applauded, and brought Yu Su to the roof ridge he had just aimed at in an instant.

Yu Su was stunned, his eyes were full of little stars, "Wow, you are amazing my little brother! You are so handsome! You are so handsome! You are so chic..." If it weren't for her little hands tightly hugging Song Xinlai's neck, she would have bulging applause,
Yu Su's praise and praise made Song Xinglin's ears blush, and he changed the subject uncomfortably.

He's so handsome, so chic... Then what, macho men can be shy too, okay?

Song Xinglin looked around awkwardly, touched his nose uncomfortably, wiped off the rain on his face, and hurriedly urged.

"Alright, alright, Yuyu, since there's no one here, it's dark everywhere, and the rain has blocked the view from the city wall, so if you have anything to do, do it quickly."

Yu Su, "Is it right here?"

Song Xing Linman thought that his guest was afraid.

That's right, Yuyu's family is young after all, and it looks quite dangerous here, Song Xinglin hastily comforted the little people around him.

"Yuyu don't worry, there is little brother here, I promise not to let you fall into the water, this house is also very strong, we are safe here, and the people on the city wall over there will definitely not see what we are doing, don't be afraid, Yuyu .”

It's impossible to be afraid, she said boldly.

Yu Su, who reacted unambiguously, nodded his head oh oh oh, he quickly untied the small burden on his back, found out the linoleum cloth he had aimed at a long time ago, and zoomed in. The cupboard of pastries and snacks was enlarged and opened, and the pastries were taken out for Song Xinglin to hold.

While fetching something, Yu Su thought about it.

It's also because I was in a hurry just now, the pottery pots containing water and rice grains were in the little husband's back basket, and the back basket was left on the city wall for the second sister to watch, so I thought of getting rice grains right now. I have no choice but to use my usual snacks as food, hoping to last for a while.

well!I just don't know, when will such a large amount of water recede...
