Chapter 22 The Moment of Crisis

The dark night, the heavy rain still did not stop at all, and the lightning flashed and thundering occasionally shone out figures of people running among the thatched huts, wearing straw hats.

Red blood flowed out of one thatched hut after another, and then was washed away by the heavy rain drifting and disappeared soon.

"Wow, wow..." The baby's crying and the adult's begging for mercy have long been covered by the sound of wind and rain, so that even the neighbors around did not notice any strange things about the people next to them.

Under the heavy rain, a young man pinched a baby about one year old in one hand, his face full of ruthlessness and ruthlessness, and he was indifferent to the troubles and struggles of the baby in his hand.

"Strength is really something fascinating!" The baby's hands, which had struggled, were weakly hung down, and there was no rest. The young man smiled with satisfaction, and then walked towards the next family.

This scene fell into the eyes of the guards around them, and only made them bury their heads lower. No one dared to come forward to stop them, and no one even felt that even if they could say a word. The person who just spoke was already lying on the ground, how could they dare to talk too much?

The chill brought by the wind and rain made them unable to help but wrap their clothes, but they obviously felt that the chill could not be removed.

Passing through one room, the excitement on the young man's face became more and more obvious, and his movements became faster and faster.

In the huge villages, wailing sounded one by one, and quickly disappeared. Finally, there was no sound in the entire village. In the wind and rain, there was an inexplicable horror here.

After leaving the last family, the young man wiped the blood from his hands, but the smile on his face could not be concealed, and finally turned into an arrogant laugh. "Hahaha... Sure enough, killing is the fastest way!"

"Use blood to foster your body and use killing to nourish your soul. Blood killing is indeed not fake. Killing one person is a crime, killing ten thousand people is a hero, killing one million people, I am the best in the world! In this world, I will eventually crawl at my feet. Who dares to stop me at that time? Haha..."

Seeing that the young master seemed to be in a good mood, someone in the guard finally struggled for a while and said, "Young master, this place is a whole village after all, and I am worried..."

"Waste, what are you afraid of!" A cold snorted, the young master smiled coldly and said lightly: "Do you think the reason why I chose to take action now is because it is because it has rained heavily in the sky and has not stopped for several days? Now, the storms in the rivers have already started!"

Looking into the river in the distance, the young man seemed to be watching something. "The riverside embankment has just been built in the past two years. I know very well what those people are doing. This embankment will definitely be destroyed. By then, this place will be a vast ocean!"

As if he thought of something excited, the young master suddenly became a little excited. "How can you kill this little bit of killing now? When floods occur, you will definitely be hungry and corpses everywhere, and life is the most valuable!"

"So these are just the beginning. When that time comes, hum, I will surely soar into the sky!"

"Young Master!" He looked at the young master carefully, and the guard next to him reminded him cautiously, "What if there is nothing wrong with the river embankment, what should we do?"

"Is nothing wrong?" I glanced over and saw that my heart trembled. After a moment, the cold voice of the young man sounded again.

"Then just let the river bank have something to do? Bring a few more people to ensure that everything is foolproof!"

"This, this..." He raised his head in surprise, but when he saw the young master's almost ruthless eyes, the guards closed their mouths with tactfulness. The young master's order was already given, and they had no choice but to do their best, even if they were unwilling!

"The others follow me and continue to walk. Let's go to the next village. Tonight, I will step into the acquired realm in one breath! Power, I want more powerful power!"

After saying that, the young man turned over and left quickly. In his eyes, something called ambition seemed to be about to burst out.

At this time, Chen Yu was leading the gathered strong men, and almost all the soldiers from Bai'an County were working hard to strengthen the river embankment. The rain had not stopped for several days, and the river water surged was already very dangerous.

With the prestige accumulated by oneself, of course, the main reason is that the money is good. Thanks to the support of the Cai family, the Feng family, and the big dog owners like Feihutang, the county government can have enough money and enough credibility.

A month ago, the streets in Bai'an County were in chaos. At that time, Chen Yu ordered someone to shout out the price of ten taels of silver for a criminal, and he exchanged it easily afterwards. This was not only a convenience for catching thieves, but also a cultivation of the credibility of the yamen.

It was precisely because of this reputation that Chen Yu was able to gather a large number of strong men in a very short time. Even ordinary elderly, weak, women and children were desperately trying to work with each other. The main reason was that the county magistrate was too generous and the money he gave was too tempting.

"Sir, it's not good, look!"

Just as Shen Yu was constantly patrolling the river bank and working with the tyrant, Zhou Yuan hurried up with an ugly face, whispered a few words in Shen Yu's ear, and then, Chen Yu's face became as ugly as Zhou Yuan.

Following Zhou Yuan to the Nanpo River Embankment, the things in front of him almost turned dark when he arrived here. He couldn't help but curse, "These are all... gravels? Is there gravels under the river embankment?"

"Zhou Yuan, what you said is cutting corners? Use inferior products as good ones? This is obviously a waste of human life! All of these corrupt officials should be killed!"

He gritted his teeth and shouted, Chen Yu didn't expect that these bastards were really brave enough to build river embankments with gravel and straw bags. How can the dam built by such things block the torrent? I'm afraid that if you urinate too much, you may be able to wash away some of them.

"Fill the sandbag immediately and make everyone ready. Never let the dam break! If there is a gap, even if everyone uses people to pile it up, they will have to block the slug! Otherwise, if the river water is backflowing, it will be too late!"

"Yes, sir!"

"I hope my worries are unnecessary, but how can this broken thing stop it! A group of cheating goods that cannot be carried!" While looking at the tumbling river with a worried face, Chen Yu stared at the dam nervously, afraid that something would happen.

He originally thought that after these two days of sleepless efforts, the river bank would not be as solid as a stolen person, at least it would not be so easy to be washed away. But now it seems that he is still too naive, and sometimes he likes to slap in the face.

Don’t let him know who built the river bank. If he knew, he would have to use a knife to cut these people!

After waiting for a while, Chen Yu's face became more and more anxious. But some things were even more afraid of, but things went against their wishes. Under the continuous impact of the rolling rivers, the earth and rocks on the embankment were constantly washed down.

First, a small gap appeared, and then the gap expanded rapidly, and the river was about to rush out along here.

It is not easy for a dam made of such broken materials to last for so long, and it is also a talented person to build the dam.
