Over there at Yue Nu Gorge...

Fortunately, these questioning voices were relatively small in number and were interrupted by the tacit understanding of the nearby police officers. They did not spread, nor did they cause any disturbance.

"Boss, over there at Di Gongzha..."

Among the silent policemen, someone couldn't help but ask Yan Liulang.

Yan Liulang pursed his lips, grabbed the scroll in his arms, and suddenly turned around and said:

"If Mingfu and Brother Ashan can handle it well, let's take care of the local affairs in the rear area and don't cause trouble. This will be the greatest help."

The blue-robed catcher suddenly whipped his horse and rushed forward. He turned and pointed at the second phase of the Broken Wing Canal that happened to be passing by. The young man raised his head and said with determination:

"Besides, there is also the Broken Wing Canal. Most of it has been repaired. If a flood comes, it will be enough to open this canal directly. The Ming government has said that there is nothing to be afraid of. Why, you can't even believe it.

?”

Everyone got excited and followed suit with whips raised.

Yan Liulang hurriedly rushed out and said loudly:

"Let's go to the mountainside and check the beacon tower. This is an important matter assigned by the Ming government. We can't hold back!"

It's midnight in the evening, and the sky is still overcast after a light rain all day.

The sky was gray and gray, just like the day, and the darkness was not obvious.

Yan Liulang took the last group of refugees to the foot of Dagushan Mountain and handed the people over to Diao County Cheng and other scribes for resettlement.

Many of the latter's eyeballs were bloodshot, and it looked like they had been busy and staying up late the day before yesterday, with insufficient sleep and a tired look on their faces.

However, Yan Liulang and others were not much better. They exchanged a few words, added a few sips of water, left their horses, and walked up the mountain lightly.

Both sides of the mountain road were filled with wandering refugees. Fortunately, some tent camps had been set up on the open spaces on both sides.

There seems to be no shortage of hot water, bedding, food and other supplies.

Moreover, the many common people who came out were placed in Donglin Temple on the top of the mountain by Diao County Cheng and others.

Yan Liulang and his party made their way through the crowd and arrived in front of the Shamu Pavilion halfway up the mountain.

Not far from the Zhemu Pavilion, on a lawn with a wide view, a huge beacon tower has been erected, with a government official standing guard beside it, covering his eyes with his palms, looking in the distance in the direction of Yuenv Gorge upstream of Butterfly Creek.

Among the mountains there, there are actually several beacon towers erected in places that cannot be seen clearly even with all the eyesight.

This early warning system, like the Shui Ze Monument along the upstream coast, was also prepared by Ouyang Rong some time ago.

Once the Di Gong Gate collapses immediately, the beacon will be lit all the way, and will finally be seen by everyone on Dagushan.

Then the beacon tower at the end of the Dagushan Mountain facing the sun will be immediately lit as an early warning. People who are still scattered around Dagushan will immediately return to Dagushan and no longer stay outside.

Including the craftsmen and young men who are currently working diligently at the Zheyi Canal not far from the mountain. They will open the Zheyi Canal before leaving...

Instructing his subordinate brothers to rest where they were, Yan Liulang silently stepped forward, looked at the dry and flammable materials in the beacon tower that were replaced regularly, and nodded gently. He walked to the edge of the cliff and glanced in the direction of the Broken Wing Canal.

According to the message from the Ming government, the second phase of the Zheyi Canal, which is still under construction, cannot be opened until the flood is confirmed and as a last resort.

This huge construction project is related to Longcheng County's century-old water control plan. At present, only half of the second phase has been repaired, so we must try to avoid being forced to open for business.

This is also the last resort in case the Dee Gong Gate collapses.

Yan Liulang took off his bamboo hat, shook off the raindrops, followed Ming Fu's example, and rubbed his face hard.

"Mukuro."

At this moment, a familiar shout not far behind him broke Yan Liulang's trance.

"Da Lang? Miss Ye, Miss Su... are you all here?"

Yan Liulang looked back and found that the blinding pavilion not far away was full of familiar people.

With a surprised look on his face, he greeted Su Dalang who came forward.

The little girl from the Su family with a purple gauze on her face and calm eyes, and the bun-faced maid named Cai Shou behind her.

And Ye Weilai, who was sent to Dagushan by Yan Liulang as soon as possible yesterday.

Although Ouyang Rong only seriously asked him to take all the people of Dragon City up the mountain before leaving, he did not specifically ask him to take care of Meiluyuan.

It seems that they also classify their maids as "normal people" and have no privileges.

But as soon as Ouyang Rong left yesterday, Yan Liulang turned around and went to take Ye Weilai and other Meiluyuan maids, as well as other family members of his colleagues who had gone to Di Gongzha with the Ming Dynasty to support them, to Dagushan for resettlement.

Yan Liulang understood and admired Ouyang Rong's example.

Ouyang Rong also had to take the lead, because all his subordinates and colleagues around him, regardless of their stance on good or evil, were all silently watching his every move.

As a parent officer.

If you arrange for your family to run away immediately, then everyone can also arrange for your family to run away. It is blameless.

If you abandon the city immediately, then everyone can also abandon the city, and you have no right to blame everyone.

In addition, you said when you first took office that you only came to Longcheng to do one thing.

Disaster relief, flood control, justice.

It's really just one thing - justice.

So what the county magistrate said is fair, is it really fair? Have you forgotten it?

Regarding this, not only the Longcheng County Government Office, but all the officials and citizens of the entire Longcheng County were watching silently.

Otherwise, the prestige and admiration established before will collapse in an instant, and except for close associates like Yan Liulang, it will be difficult for anyone else to move.

But to put it another way, it is precisely because he has always been fair that Ouyang Rong can quickly consolidate the power of a county order and control the entire Longcheng County government and the entire Longcheng County...

I understand, but there are some things in this world that Yan Liulang feels should not be like this, and those who bravely stand up should not be treated like this...

"Yan Captou, where is my Tanlang?"

In the blind pavilion, Ye Weilai ran into the rain, grabbed the handkerchief with both hands, and asked quickly.

Under a wet veil stained with raindrops, the pink lips that were about to open were quietly closed.
