Wolf King

Prairie, the northwest of the southwest, the upper reaches of the river of the earth, the construction site of giant dams (er, in fact, reservoir level...).

It took a full five months to pour the dam, and the engineering team of 3,000 people dug down the canal along the terrain, leaving only a "J" caster and a goblin left at the dam to monitor the dam Drying process, and pay attention to the water level of the upper reaches of the river.

The natural low mountain beam between the upper reaches of the river and the dam has not yet exploded. Before the canal is clear, this mountain beam still bears the heavy responsibility of blocking the river.

Von Ardoni and Goblin Luke walked along the mountain beam with a lot of dark skin and beards for hygiene issues. The water level diagram carved on the side of the mountain wall and river in winter records the rise and fall of the water surface.

"Mr. Aldoni, the water level has risen by another five centimeters. The heavy rain last night really affected." Goblin Luke barefoot climbed up from the mossy mountain wall, frowning as he rubbed the moss on his feet on the grass.

"Is it rising again... It's only 2.7 meters away from the red line of the safe water level." Aldoni glanced at the dangerous water level marked in red on the notebook, and frowned.

Natural disasters in this world are topped by floods.

Storms, earthquakes, and even forest fires are a feast for the casters to gather energy from natural elements. Every year, in the windy season, the casters will go to the coastal areas where the storms are frequent, staring at the sea tiger.

Even the descendants of "J" will not miss this kind of carnival when there is a chance-the crystal ball in Aldoni's pocket contains the fire element he collected during a mountain fire, and it has been used for several years. There is still left.

When the caster's figure appears on the scene of the disaster, the disaster will naturally not be able to do much storms...

But flooding alone is a problem that spellcasters can’t solve—the big water that can destroy everything is not because an element can be too strong, but just too much water...

The two large rivers on the grassland, the river of the earth is the most flooded. The reason is that the river of the earth comes from the Samal Snow Mountain; if there is a snow in the Samal Snow Mountain in winter, it will be particularly heavy in the next year. Summer is especially hot and there is a lot of rain, so the combination of the falling rain and the snow from the Samal Snow Mountain will cause the river of the earth to flood.

Um...Of course... To solve the problem that the river of the earth has been frantically testing on the edge of flooding for a long time, there is also a very simple and rude method that is less troublesome than building the Grand Canal, but when Xiao Yun proposed this trick at the tribal high-level meeting at the beginning of the year At the time, everyone, including the qualified casters, voted against it in black.

This evil way is to use the underground world space on the side of the grassland, when the water level of the river of the earth reaches the dangerous standard, draw water to irrigate...

Well, in short, everyone’s collective opposition did not give the goods such an opportunity to make crazy plans for death.

Aldoni knew the importance of upstream water level monitoring. He actively asked to stay and squatted. After getting through the initial boring time, he gradually got used to it. But now, seeing the rising water level, the speed of water flow gradually accelerating, and the summer is abundant The rain continued to fall, and Aldoni was anxious.

Walked over the mountain beams and returned to the caretaker’s hut over the concrete pouring dam. Aldoni just took off his muddy shoes, and the goblin Luke ran into the house nervously: "Mr. Aldoni, again It's raining!"

Aldoni ran out of the hut barefoot and looked up at the sky, and he saw... that everything he saw was full of heavy clouds, and the clouds to the north were so thick that the sky was a bit dim.

"...In the past, the summer on the grassland was like this year. Can't you see it for three consecutive days of sunny days?" Aldoni couldn't help it.

"No." Goblin Luke shook his head and looked dignified. "I have lived on the grassland for more than ten years, and no year has as much rain as this year."

The goblin Luke also lived with the Snow Wolf tribe before coming to the Huoyan Ministry. Although the life was not good, the safety was guaranteed. In order to repay the snow wolf's blessing, Luke took the tribe every year except the winter. Collecting edible things everywhere, paying close attention to the climate... In the jungle after rain, there are always many edible straw mushrooms.

Aldoni exhaled softly and looked up to the north again.

The water mist in the air cuts off the line of sight, and people cannot see the distant Samal Snow Mountain. However, judging from the rising water level of the river of the earth, the snow water flowing down from the Samal Snow Mountain this year is presumably more spectacular than in previous years.

The heavy rain fell to darkness, and Aldoni and Luke walked down the dam, stepped on muddy water and slippery turf vegetation to climb up the mountain beams, and looked at the water level once seen during the day.

"The water level rose by fifty centimeters!" When this number was reported, the goblin Luke's voice was shaking.

Aldoni's face changed suddenly, and he turned his head subconsciously to the end of the mountains to the east.

If the water level rises by another two meters, this mountain beam can still stand up. The tributary branch at the end of the east side of the mountain range that shunts to the southwest will be flooded!

Bring Luke back to the dam, telling the goblin not to go down the dam (the surrounding beasts are lethal to the goblin), Aldoni rides on a bipedal dragon (bring his own), and rushes overnight Report to the Ministry of Fire.

Running for hundreds of kilometers in the past ten hours, when I arrived at the Department of Fire in the morning, the most leathery and hard-working feet walked to the ground and foamed down at the mouth of the mouth; Aldoni couldn't care about the heartache, supporting his sore and numb legs, Resisting the pain of the abrasions on the inside of the buttocks and thighs, he limped to the dormitory 1-1 where the Patriarch Huo Yan lived.

Ayun went to Valentine, the grassroot patriarch was at the seaside monosodium glutamate factory, the red leaves were in the hilly new area, the blue fruit was in the sugar beet (sweet red fruit) planting base, and Ardoni could only find the Huoyan patriarch.

Among the high-ranking tribes, the status of the Huoyan patriarch is similar to that of a mascot, but this is limited to intellectual and ability problems, not that he has no sense of responsibility; the Huoyan patriarch crouching at the door brushing his teeth heard the news brought back by Ardoni and knew it was Major events, immediately summoned the management of the tribe to a meeting.

"Doesn't it mean that in the next ten to a half days of rain, we will be flooded here?"

In the conference room, Ardoni reported the upstream situation, and the managers who had just got up were stunned.

"Can't our small canal drain this amount of water?" The big water in charge of the agricultural production team worried.

"Of course not. Our small canal is ten meters wide and two meters deep. A few years ago, A Yun and I went to see the upper reaches of the river of the earth, but the tributaries that came to our side were all dozens of meters wide. At that time the water was not as big as it is now, and there were large reeds on both sides of the riverbed." The soldiers who stayed behind the tribe frowned.

"What should I do?"

A group of people who manage all the claws, soy and wheat sowed in spring will take at least four to fifty days to harvest, and crops such as sweet potatoes, potatoes and beets that have been sown in summer have just emerged as seedlings; if the hard-worked fields are overrun with water, The people present were at least half angry, and the other half were distressed.

The chief of the Fire Flame couldn't help seeing everyone, and his dignified (er) serious expression could not be maintained.

"Make the worst plan first." Dahe uttered a rare voice. This cargo who always draws water during the management meeting also knows that it is not a time to pretend to be a dead man. Pack it up and be ready to move to the highlands at any time. Give up the low-lying fields first. When the water comes over, the triangular land (that is, the land between the canal and the tributary) will definitely be flooded. Contract the production team of those land I'm busy, helping other production teams to clean up first, and collect it as soon as possible. No, see if you can get a temporary earth dam out, deepen the drain, and protect as much as you can..."

At the earliest, only 10,000 acres were opened in the triangular land, and the area of ​​cultivated land gradually expanded over the next few years, and more than 40,000 acres were opened before and after. A total of five production teams were responsible for this land; Dahe said that the captains of the five production teams were all Anxious, one of them directly red eyes and shouted in angrily: "Dahe?!"

Dahe didn't look at him and continued: "In addition to the triangular land, the near-water sandy land of Dashui and the low-lying land south of the swamp also have to make plans to give up..."

Of the more than 30 production team leaders, nearly 40% showed a painful look.

Dahe looked at the tribes uncomfortably, and she was uncomfortable, but she was distinguished, and she still said "coldly": "The hilly new area is high, but I'm not afraid, but the blueberry beet plantation is close to snake vine grass and the Grand Canyon If the water rushes down, it will definitely endanger them. We must rush to inform Languo. Even if this beet is not needed, the safety of the personnel must be guaranteed."

"The second and third farms of Cat Clan are also high, but the topography of the first farm is lower than ours, and you have to inform the Arthur Patriarch to prepare in advance."

After a pause, Dahe tried his best to stretch his face and look seriously at all the management present: "I know everyone is very distressed about the fields and crops, and I am also distressed. But please don't forget that these fields and the crops on the fields are all us The wasteland was planted by hand and the seeds were planted. Even if it was gone for a while, as long as the people were still there, we could still open the fields and plant the crops."

"Don’t forget what Ayun often said, people are the most important! People are there, everything is there, people are gone, and even if the fields are kept and the crops are kept, everything is gone!"

"Don't waste your time and be sad, hurry and do the right thing!!"

At the end of the interim meeting, the red-eyed managers rushed out of the meeting room to convene their own staff, and some of them were more emotionally broken, almost doing things while wiping their tears...

Everyone is sad and heartbroken and uncomfortable, but there is no doubt about the monitoring results of Ardoni and Dahe’s decision-Xiao Yun is talking about flood hazards every year, and the tribe has invested a lot of money every year in flood prevention. Now the engineering team is repairing The Grand Canal and the reservoir drainage ditches that have been built for several years are all to deal with this man-made natural disaster.

At the beginning of the year, Xiao Yun set aside the tribe for a full three years of money and sent an engineering team to repair the Grand Canal. It was not that no one had whispered. Now, people who feel that Xiao Yun is a little too nervous at the time only hate the previous years. Saving money is too slow, the Grand Canal project is too late...

Dahe was ordered to complete the task assignment, temporarily shut down the Welfare Department, and lent the manpower to the production team. She carried the bag of dry food and brought the kettle, turned into a wolf, and ran to the upper reaches of the river. She had to go and see for herself.

The rainwater in the southwest corner of the tribe is only slightly denser than in previous years, and it is not as terrifying as it was. The river ran north for more than two hundred kilometers to understand deeply why Ardoni is so nervous-the more north, the air The more humid, the thicker the clouds in the sky!

When the big river arrived at the dam construction site, the whole wolf was drowning...

Braved the heavy rain and climbed the stairs to the wide and heavy concrete pouring dam, the river looked up to the farther north of the mountain beams, and the wolf beak that was violently breathing slowly and clenched his teeth-the sky in the direction of Samal Snow Mountain, black and heavy The clouds are like falling down to the ground!

"The flood that Ayun has been worried about... is finally coming!"
