"Hey," Xia Meng sighed softly, "Teacher Zhen, I'll go with you."

Xia Meng was not sure whether other teachers could survive if they followed Zhen Guiying. If she followed Zhen Guiying, there was a high probability that Zhen Guiying would be fine.

"Really, even if you have a good relationship... you can't mess around!" Xia Meng complained softly.

"Sorry, sorry," Zhen Guiying apologized embarrassingly, and then cast a grateful look at Xia Meng,

"Xia Meng, thank you!"

Seeing this, Yunying frowned and suddenly said,

"I'll go with you."

"Doctor Yun," Xia Meng said with a serious expression, "Your mission is completed, you should go back."

Yunying wanted to help, but when Xia Meng didn't appreciate it, she immediately became a little angry.

"You don't let me go, but I insist on going!"

After Yunying finished speaking, she said to the mother and son,

"Mom, can you lend me your boat?"

The aunt nodded with a smile, "Doctor Yun, just use it."

Xia Meng saw that Yunying had to go, so he didn't say anything.

The aunt's son rowed the boat north for a while, then helped the old man get off the boat and gave the boat to Xia Meng and the others.

Zhou Mei and Sun Changmei don't have a close relationship with Zhang Guiling. It's rare for them to go out to search together.

The situation ahead was dangerous, so the two decided to go back first.

Zhen Guiying naturally had no position to say anything. She told the two of them to be careful on the way back, and then followed Yunying and Xia Meng to get on the boat and row south.

Yunying and Zhen Guiying knew how to row a boat, so the journey was smooth.

On the boat, Zhen Guiying asked Yunying about Zhang Guiling. Yunying shook her head.

"Sorry, I haven't seen the lesbian you mentioned."

Zhen Guiying shook her head, "It doesn't matter," but the worry on her face became more intense.

Yunying was right. The further forward, the deeper the water became. Xia Meng glanced at the trees on both sides of the road. The water level was about 1.3 meters. Zhen Guiying was 1.6 meters. When she got into the water, the water was almost up to her neck. , it is indeed quite dangerous.

After rowing for more than ten minutes, they entered a village. Yunying explained,

"The people in this village were moved last night, and now there is no one in the village."

The village is not big, and most of the houses are adobe houses, which are not strong and many of them were washed away in heavy rains.

There are some wheat straw, animal feces, etc. floating in the water, which is relatively turbid.

"After one more village," Zhen Guiying pointed ahead, "we will reach the village where Zhang Guiling's mother's family is."

Along the way, I didn’t see Zhang Guiling. The water was so deep, and I didn’t know if she had successfully reached her parents’ home?

Xia Meng asked Yunying, "Doctor Yun, have all the villagers in nearby villages been moved to safe places?"

"I don't know," Yunying frowned and pointed in the direction to the left, "I came from over there. The transfer work over there has not been completed yet. It is said that the heavy rain has not ended yet, and floods will be released upstream, and people in the downstream villages will have to be discharged. Transfer.”

Xia Meng raised his head and glanced at the gloomy sky, feeling the moisture in the air, "Then we have to speed up."

Light raindrops hit the water, causing ripples. The moist air after the rain sticks to people, making it moist and sticky.

The patter of rain pattered on the raincoat, making a slight "crackling" sound. The sound gradually increased from small to loud, and gradually turned into a downpour.

Big raindrops came down like a blanket, making Xia Meng and the others almost unable to open their eyes.

Yunying and Zhen Guiying's rowing speed slowed down, and water began to accumulate in the boat.

Xia Meng leaned over, folded his hands into ladles, and kept scooping out water.

There is a mist between the sky and the earth, and the boat is like a dead leaf with no direction in the vast sky and earth, lonely and small.

Yunying and Zhen Guiying braved the rain, kept swinging the oars, and the boat drifted... Finally they arrived at the village where Zhang Guiling's mother-in-law lived, Xiahe Village.

Xia Meng had good eyesight and could vaguely see some people standing in twos and threes on the roof not far away.

When the boat got closer, Xia Meng saw a child sitting in a wooden basin, and an adult beside him was pushing the child upstream in the water.

Some people were carrying food, farm tools and other items on their backs and wanted to flee the village with their families.

Xia Meng wiped the rainwater on her face and asked a young man swimming in the muddy water,

"Fellow fellows, where are you going?"

The fellow pointed casually not far away, "There...there is a low mountain there, and I can't stay at home."

Zhen Guiying asked hurriedly, "Fellow, do you know where Zhang Guiling's home is?"

"Sister Guiling?" The young man was stunned for a moment and looked at Zhen Guiying, "Who are you? You don't look like people from our village."

Zhen Guiying explained, "fellow, I am Zhang Guiling's friend. It was raining so hard and she suddenly returned to the village. I was worried that something would happen to her, so I came to see..."

"Oh, that's it." The young man pointed behind him without any doubt, "There is a big locust tree over there. The house next to the locust tree is Sister Guiling's house."

The village is not big, with only a few dozen households. More than half of them have evacuated early, and the remaining ten or so households are also leaving one after another.

The children were sitting in the tub and the adults were sitting on the wooden boards. They were running towards the short hill over there, using whatever tools they had.

The three of them soon came to the big locust tree. Next to the big locust tree, there was a tall brick house.

The wooden door was blocked by water, and the rainwater had almost covered the not-so-high adobe wall. Zhen Guiying stood up and shouted into the room,

"Zhang Guiling! Zhang Guiling, are you here? Are you here?"

"Zhang Guiling!"

A slightly hoarse voice, full of anxiety and worry, finally, there was movement in the room,

"Who? Who?"

A slightly familiar voice soon came from the room.

"It's Guiling! It's really Guiling!" Zhen Guiying almost cried with joy.

"Guiling, it's me, Guiying!"

"Guiying?" Zhang Guiling shouted from inside the house, "Why are you here? Are you alone? How dangerous this is!"

Zhen Guiying wiped away her tears of excitement and complained,

"Do you still know the danger? You came back even though you knew the danger? Do you know how worried I was after I found out you were missing?"

"If you have something to do, just tell me. We have been friends for more than ten years, how can I not help you? You left without saying a word, I was almost... anxious to death!"

"I'm sorry," Zhang Guiling said with guilt, "Guiying, it's all my fault, I just... don't want to implicate you, it's too dangerous..."

The rain still didn't let up. Yunying urged, "Stop talking and tell them to come out quickly. The water level keeps rising. We need to leave quickly."

Zhen Guiying nodded quickly and shouted into the room, "Guiling, come out quickly and we will take you away."

"No," Zhang Guiling said with choked helplessness, "My mother injured her leg and can't walk."

No wonder Zhang Guiling never came out.

Even if the wall blocks the boat, it can't get through.

Yunying immediately said, "I can swim, and I will help pick people out."

Xia Meng glanced at the turbid rainwater, as well as the large amounts of garbage and human or animal feces floating in the rainwater, and closed her eyes.
