Chapter 10 Flood Breaks
  Nuoda's team ran wildly in the rain, and soon the officers caught the prisoners one by one who took the opportunity to escape. Because of a mistake in decision-making, 10% of the people were lost. You must know that the exile has just begun, and there will be more to come. Two months' journey is waiting for them. Who knows what is waiting for them ahead, so Yang Dajun has no energy to deal with them.

But under the obstruction of the rain curtain, the speed was still delayed after all, and the sequelae caused by the heavy rain slowly became apparent.

"Reporter, the mountain in front has collapsed, blocking a large part of our path. If we want to clean it up, it will take three days. If we take a detour, we need to go back."

The officer scouting the road was very loud and everyone heard it. Misfortunes never come singly. The heavy rain came so suddenly and caught Yang Dajun off guard. If he had known it earlier, he would have to rest at the inn even if he traveled all night. At least it would be safe.

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world!

It is absolutely impossible to turn back. There are so many corpses left there. Not to mention how many wild animals will be attracted. Even if you go back and find another way, it may not be safe or smooth. It may waste more time!

"Relax where you are and get ready to eat!"

The plan was to rest at the inn and go to the town for supplies at the same time, so both the official servants and the exiled prisoners only had a little ration left.

Yang Dajun rode on horseback to see how the road was blocked.

After several hours of running at high speed, the prisoners' physical strength was exhausted, and they all collapsed on the ground.

Even though he was wet and miserable, no one cared.

The soil next to the mountain wall collapsed, and many large trees lay across it, almost ten meters high. There was a cliff outside the road, and from time to time, stones would continue to fall to the bottom of the dense cliff.

This is the first time that Yang Dajun has seen such a landslide. He has been on the road to Lingnan dozens of times over the years, and it has never been so dangerous this time. It seems that all the bad luck is concentrated in this area. If you don't kill someone, you won't pay for it!
  three days?

How could a road be cleared in three days?
  People can climb, but what about carriages? What about horses?

Yang Dajun was really irritable at this time, and he didn't know how much time this delay would waste.

The temperature after heavy rain is always too low, especially now in the evening, when the sun has set and the wind can make people shiver.

Everyone hugged the black buns and shivered in a ball, waiting for the arrangement.

Lin Yue wrung out the water on her sleeves and shook her wet hair from her forehead, feeling exhausted all over.

"Sister, let's eat some steamed buns!"

The sister-in-law avoided the eyes of the crowd and stuffed a shriveled, cold steamed bun. When she smelled it carefully, it still had a sour smell.

Lin Yue didn't dislike it at all. She finished the palm-sized yellowish steamed buns in just a few bites, and her throbbing stomach felt a little better.

Just as everyone was preparing to set up camp, they were quarreling over a piece of firewood.

"Boom, boom, boom."

"what happened?"

Everyone looked around in horror, fearing that they would report to the King of Hell in the next second.

thunder? no.

Mountain collapse? The voice was clearly in my ears.

The sound became louder and louder, deafening, as if the end was coming.

The unknown is the scariest thing!

"It's water! It's flood!"

An official standing next to the cliff screamed, attracting everyone's attention.

There is a deep ravine between the two mountains, and the road is built halfway up the mountain. From their perspective.

The flash flood roared like a wild horse running wild from the valley, unstoppable.

Finished!

This is the voice of everyone. Even Lin Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly. He died in the water in his last life, will he die in the water this time too?

This time everyone panicked.

"Ah! Run quickly!" "Sir, what should I do?"

"Oh oh oh, I don't want to die!"

"How come there was a flood? Didn't it just rain for a day?"

Some people were scared to death, and more people were running up the mountain, running as hard as they could, not even caring about the carriage or baggage.

(But no one thought that the flood was in the mountain stream and would not submerge them even if it reached them)
  In the face of natural disasters, no matter how powerful human beings are, they are insignificant, and there is no distinction between high and low.

You chase each other, even pushing down those who stand in front of you, just to buy a little time.

The Lin family also ran upwards with the large army, but it was most likely to cause trouble if they were carried forward.

In the chaos, Qian Qianqian hugged Brother Yu and got separated from everyone.

The weak woman had no independent opinion. She usually had her family and husband to rely on. But now she was scattered by the crowd, still holding her child. Facing the people who were desperate to survive, she was really unable to resist.

"Dad, mother, sister-in-law, where are you?"

"Woooooooooo, help, don't crowd, slow down, slow down."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.

Brother Yu looked at the ferocious crowd and seemed to be frightened to tears. The sharp cry made Lin Yue on the edge instantly capture the position.

Lin Yue knew about it as soon as her sister-in-law was pushed out of the team, but they all ran up. The noise and confusion interfered with her search.

"Found it, mother, my sister-in-law and nephew are there."

Mrs. Min had been holding on to her daughter-in-law tightly, but she didn't know when her hands would be empty, so she was very anxious.

Min Xin followed the direction of her daughter's finger and saw her anxious and helpless daughter-in-law and her crying grandson. At this moment, her heart was broken.

"Quick, think of a way to save your sister-in-law!"

"I'll think of a way and we'll go there right away."

Lin Yue and her family confessed and took her mother Min away to Qian Qianqian who was surrounded by the crowd.

Lin Yue manipulated the vines to quietly separate a path, allowing the two of them to reach Qian Qianqian smoothly.

That's all.

Yang Dajun and other officials were all somewhat armed, and after a few jumps, they all climbed up the tree.

The distance between trees was very small. In a few breaths, they were already in front of everyone, and the flood was in front of them.

You can clearly see big trees, rocks, beasts, and even people wrapped inside!

The flood rumbled in front of everyone. Everyone felt lucky to be alive after the disaster, but also felt sad that their compatriots were killed!

Yang Dajun stood on the treetops, frowning. He could foresee that there would be refugees, plagues, and starvation floating behind him. The road ahead would be very difficult, and he would definitely not be able to arrive within the stipulated time.

Lin Yue controlled the vines in the forest when no one was paying attention, and soon found a clean and large cave.

"Master Yang, I just saw a cave. I wonder if we can move there to rest."

The successive incidents really confused Yang Dajun, and he didn't even think of his station tonight. Lin Yue found out that he was dozing off and gave him a pillow.

"Okay, have a good rest tonight!"

"Erhu, invite everyone to go up the mountain. We will go up there to rest tonight."

When everyone settled in the cave, it was already dark. The Lin family contributed some cold medicine and everyone boiled it and drank it together.
