[Liang Zhu] Yingtai took me to fly

It was raining heavily, there was no light in the sky, and it was pitch black.Not far away, the neighing of horses gradually rose.

Only then did Ma Wen feel the ground trembling slightly under his feet, and felt that he was so small, so he couldn't help but hold onto Zhu Yingtai tightly and get closer to him.

"Brother!" "Xin Zhai!"

Zhu Yingjiu and Liang Shanbo were woken up by the guards and also ran out of the house.Under the flickering light of the torch, his face was as white as a human.

Ma Wencai took a look and saw that all the people who never tire of living in the house were there, so he was somewhat relieved.He said to Zhu Yingtai: "Where are the gentlemen and other students? We should wake them up!"

Just as he was speaking, "Dangdangdang" rang several times in a row, and the lingering, vigorous and long tone that usually rang out became a bit sharp, piercing the night.

Ma Wencai's hands tightened again, and he said, "Let's climb to a higher place first!" His mind was extremely clear at the moment, the academy was sandwiched by mountains on both sides, and if there was a flood, it would surely come from the east and west sides, and they Should go vertically to the high place.

The terrain of the academy flashed in his mind, and he shouted: "Go north! Go to Dacheng Hall! Stay away from the hillside!"

Zhu Yingtai dragged him out of the courtyard without hesitation, and the rest followed closely.

The rainwater collects on the path of Juren Garden, flowing down the mountain like a stream, mixed with sand and slippery.Ma Wencai held onto Zhu Yingtai tightly so as not to fall.He didn't even have time to turn around to see how the others were doing, he yelled and asked, "Shanbo, Yingjiu! Sanqi, Liuqu! You must follow!"

Zhu Yingjiu pursed her lips tightly, while Liang Shanbo and Si Jiuyi held her up and resisted so as not to fall behind.

Sanqi and Liuqu also supported each other, followed closely behind, while Yinxin half-protected Suhui.

The two guards of the Zhu family observed the surrounding situation one after the other.

As if in just a few breaths, they had rushed through the gate of Juren Garden, turned around and climbed up the stairs leading to Dacheng Hall.

Many people followed behind them, either confused or panicked.They were awakened from their dreams by the sound of the bell, and as soon as they went out, they saw Ma Wencai and the others running away, and they caught up without much thought.

The location of Dacheng Hall is quite high, with countless steps.Ma Wencai could barely see the road under his feet under the light of the torches held by the guards of Zhu's family, but many people behind him could only grope in the dark, and from time to time they could hear the sound of someone screaming and falling.

"Ah!" Sanqi's voice sounded and then disappeared.

Ma Wencai's heart tightened, and he shouted, "Sanqi? Sanqi!"

The sound was lost in the sound of rain and the growing roar of the mountains.

A tree has fallen.

The mountain suddenly collapsed.

The walls and houses of the academy were shattered.

Familiar and unfamiliar screams everywhere.

All these voices were buried in a thunderous noise.

Ma Wen felt that his ears and head were ringing together, and his body was hit by fine gravels flying from nowhere.

He was still thinking about Sanqi's cry, his eyes were sore and swollen, and his steps were already numb.

The people around stopped in their tracks, and no rain fell on them.

Ma Wencai staggered a few steps, leaning against Zhu Yingtai and gasping for breath.The bamboo hat on his head was lifted off, and Zhu Yingtai's face appeared in front of his eyes.

"Yihua, we've arrived at Dacheng Hall, we're here." Zhu Yingtai hugged him and patted his back lightly.

Ma Wencai's eyes slowly recovered, he stood up straight suddenly, looked around, and shouted: "Where is Sanqi! Come out, Sanqi!"

The light of the torches of the guards around him stabilized a lot, and as far as they could see, everyone was drenched and panicked.

A voice responded: "My lord, my lord, I'm here!"

Ma Wencai followed the prestige.

Sanqi was in such a panic, she lost her coir raincoat and bamboo hat somewhere, her body was stained with muddy water, the color of her clothes could not be seen, and her hair was sticking to her face in strands.His face was pale, but he was alive.

Ma Wencai felt relieved, rushed over and grabbed him to look up and down, and asked repeatedly: "Are you injured? Did you fall just now? Does it hurt?"

Sanqi shook his head, grinned, took out a small copper stove from his bosom, stuffed it into Ma Wencai's hand, and said, "My lord, look, I brought you a hand stove! Just now, the hand stove slipped and I just dropped it." , but the hand stove did not drop!"

Ma Wencai's throat got stuck, and he slapped Sanqi hard on the head, cursing: "What time is it, what kind of hand stove do you bring me! Are you a pig's brain! If you, if..."

Sanqi was a little wronged, and wanted to defend herself, but saw Ma Wencai's cheeks trembling, almost crying, his eyes were red, and he shrank his head obediently.

Zhu Yingtai came over and put his arms around his shoulders, comforting him: "Okay, okay, we are still here."

Ma Wen just slowed down and rubbed Sanqi's head.Looking at the others, they all supported each other and gathered together.

The Dacheng Hall was very empty and quiet, and the continuous roar outside made people panic.The wet clothes are sticking to the body and it is cold, making it even more difficult to calm down.

Ma Wencai said: "Let's think of a way to make a fire first. Let's all get together so we can dry our clothes and keep warm. I don't know if there is anyone outside. Let's set up a torch. If anyone else—who sees it, You can also join us."

Everyone nodded, unwilling to think about what happened to those who did not appear in the hall now, they all stood together with familiar people first, helped each other wring out their clothes, and then split up to look for something to light the fire.

Ma Wencai and the others woke up early and had time to put on their coir raincoats, but their upper body was still dry, and their feet and lower clothes were almost wet.

Zhu Yingtai took off Ma Wencai's shoes, rubbed his feet for him, and said, "Didn't Sanchi say you brought a hand stove? You are weak, so cover it first."

Ma Wencai shook his head, pointed at Zhu Yingjiu and said, "Give it to Yingjiu, after all..." After all, she is a woman.

Zhu Yingtai wanted to say that Zhu Yingjiu was in better health than you, so she didn't say anything more when she saw that he insisted. She tore off the two dry sleeves of his jacket and wrapped his feet up.

Everyone searched in the main hall and two side halls of Dacheng Hall, and found some candles and wooden desks.The two guards of Zhu's family quickly removed some doors and windows, and managed to light two fires.

After setting up a few candlesticks outside the door, everyone returned to the hall.The momentum outside the house remained undiminished, and Dacheng Hall was like a small boat on the sea, which seemed to be capsized by the tide at any time.

Ma Wencai and Zhu Yingtai cuddled each other and baked their clothes near the fire.The two also helped Zhu Yingjiu and Su Hui block the sight of others, and asked them to wrap their legs tightly with outer robes.

After a while, the door of the main hall suddenly opened, and several people walked in with each other's support.The atmosphere in the hall immediately came alive, and the people who were closer to the door immediately stood up and helped them to the fire.

One person appeared to have a broken leg, and walked with a limp, with his arm draped over the shoulder of the person next to him.But there was a smile on his face, and the joy of escaping death.

"Outside, how is it now?" Someone asked.

The hall fell silent and listened to his answer.

"There was water everywhere, muddy water, we climbed to the roof and couldn't go down at all. Later, the muddy water slowed down, and we thought it shouldn't matter, so we jumped down. Unexpectedly, there were so many broken branches in the muddy water I couldn’t swim with rocks at all, and my leg was hurt when I hit it somewhere. We were rushed to the courtyard wall of Zhengyiyuan, and the wall collapsed completely, and many lecture halls also collapsed. We climbed to Zhengyiyuan We just escaped from the water at the gate of the Friendship Academy. It has been completely destroyed, and a corner of the Mingdao Hall has collapsed. We came here only when we saw a light here."

"Did you see the others?"

The man shook his head and said, "It's raining too much, and the sky is also dark, so I can't see anything clearly."

Everyone was silent for a while, and someone said: "Since you can see the light here, others must be able to see it too, and they will come over."

Everyone prayed silently in their hearts, and someone stepped forward to help the man treat the wound.

I don't know how much time passed, the sound of the rain gradually became quieter, and the roar outside also became slightly quieter, and someone entered the Dacheng Hall again.

Gradually, the number of people in Dacheng Hall increased, including husbands, students, and servants.Every time there is one more person, the hope in everyone's hearts will increase.

As the sky was getting brighter, Ma Wencai, who hadn't closed his eyes all night, opened the door first and went out.

The academy was already in a mess, and at first glance, it seemed that most of it was buried by sand.The houses were crooked and crooked, and the closer to the hillside and downstream, the more damaged they were, and some even had only a little eaves exposed.Ragged brown soil is exposed on the hillsides on both sides, and the yellowish water flows down the sides of the academy.

Zhu Yingjiu covered her mouth and sobbed, and the others could only remain silent.

Zhu Yingtai shook Ma Wencai's hand, still warm and strong, secretly grateful to God in her heart.He said in a hoarse voice: "The rain is already light, I think I should find a way to go down the mountain to ask for help. If I have spare energy, I can also look for other people."

Ma Wencai nodded and said, "You're right, we can't just sit like this, we have to do something." The rest of the people looked determined and nodded in agreement.

Zhu Yingtai called a guard and said: "You are the best, so I will invite you down the mountain to find some people from the county and send a letter to our family. Be careful all the way, and take care of your life first. "

"This is the duty of the subordinates, son, don't say 'please'." The guard clasped his fists and took the order to leave.

Ma Wencai returned to the hall and gathered all the members of the Self-Help Society together.

In the previous activities of the Self-Help Association, they also discussed how to deal with mountain torrents, and most of them fled here.

Only then did Marvin ask them if they were willing to venture out to see if there were any survivors, and to get some food and clean water before the rescue arrived to survive this period of time.

All members of the Self-Help Association agreed.

Ma Wencai also smiled in relief, and divided them into two groups, taking turns to go out.In each group, there are also four or five people forming a small team to support and watch each other.

Their primary targets were the small kitchens in Juren and Youyiyuan.

There were exactly ten people in Ma Wencai's small courtyard. Sanqi, Sijiu, and Su Hui took care of Zhu Yingjiu, and Liang Shanbo was also left to take care of her.

Ma Wencai set off together with Zhu Yingtai, Yinxin, Liuqu and another guard.
