The surging flood swallowed up houses and fields in an instant.

The house could not withstand the impact of the water flow and collapsed instantly, becoming shattered.

The villagers who fell behind were swept away by the flood in the blink of an eye.

These people didn't even have time to cry for help. After floating in the water for a few times, they were washed away by the flood and disappeared without a trace.

The other villagers turned pale upon seeing this, and immediately used their hands and feet to desperately climb to the top of the mountain.

Especially the villagers at the back of the team, they watched helplessly as those who fell behind them were swept away and swallowed by the flood.

And they were just a little bit away from being buried in the flood!

So they didn't care about the heavy luggage they were carrying, they threw them down and climbed up the mountain desperately.

At a time like this, things are not as valuable as life!

Yun Fuling climbed up the mountain with her head down, occasionally looking back at the flood situation.

The flood at the foot of the mountain was getting bigger and bigger, the whole village was flooded, and the water level was still rising, and it seemed that it was about to flood the middle of the mountain.

Yun Fuling couldn't help but take a breath.

At this moment, a young woman carrying a child on her side somehow lost her balance and suddenly fell headfirst down the mountain.

The young woman couldn't help but scream and waved her hands in the air a few times, as if trying to grab something to maintain her balance, but to no avail.

Yun Fuling's hands were faster than her brain. By the time she reacted, she had already grabbed the young woman's arm and pulled her hard.

When the young woman realized she was saved, she immediately relied on Yun Fuling's help to steady herself and thanked Yun Fuling repeatedly.

Relying on the original owner's memory, Yun Fuling recognized that the young woman was Zheng, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief.

She smiled at Zheng, reminded her to be careful, then turned around and continued walking towards the top of the mountain.

Zheng was distracted by Yun Fuling's smile.

In her impression, Yun Fuling was not in good health and looked sick most of the time.

He also doesn't like to interact with people in the village. He always stays at home and rarely goes out.

Since Zheng was the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family and the Yun family was staying in the village, her father-in-law had to ask about her affairs, so she interacted more with the Yun family.

Unexpectedly, Yun Fuling looked frail but was actually so strong that she was able to hold both her and her son.

What she didn't expect was that Yun Fuling looked even more beautiful when she smiled than when she wasn't smiling, like a fairy, and she couldn't help but stare at her in a daze.

Zheng came to her senses and quickly turned to look at her son Zhou Changji on her back.

Fortunately, before going out, Zheng tied her son to herself with a cloth strip, so when she accidentally fell, her son was not thrown out with her.

Four-year-old Zhou Changji clung to Zheng's neck with both hands, his eyes slightly red, obviously frightened, but he was sensible enough not to cry.

Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and gently comforted her son.

Village chief Zhou and his sons were organizing the villagers to take refuge in the mountains. The village chief's wife, Fang, was taking care of a large family of women and children alone, so it was inevitable that there were things she could not take care of.

Just now she saw Zheng almost fall down, and she was so scared that her heart stopped beating.

However, she was some distance away from Zheng and had no time to save her.

Fortunately, Yun Fuling came to their rescue in time and saved the mother and son.

Zheng's eldest daughter Zhou Xing'er broke free from her grandmother Fang's hand and ran towards her mother and younger brother.

"Mom, are you and your brother okay?"

Zheng shook her head and said, "We are fine. Go and help grandma. Hurry up and head to the top of the mountain. It will be safe only when we reach the top."

Seeing that her mother and brother were really fine, Zhou Xing'er obediently ran back to Fang and helped her continue walking towards the top of the mountain.

The other sisters-in-law of the Zhou family also looked at Zheng worriedly, as they were also frightened just now.

Although there are occasional minor frictions between the sisters-in-law, their relationship is actually quite good, and they naturally don't want anything to happen to Zheng.

Seeing that Zheng mother and son were fine, the Zhou family supported each other and continued to walk to the top of the mountain.

It was unknown how long they climbed before all the surviving villagers reached the top of Fengluo Mountain.

The villagers were so tired that they sat down on the ground, their faces filled with horror at having survived a disaster.

Looking down from the top of the mountain, the flood had already reached halfway up the mountain.

Most of the houses at the foot of the mountain were destroyed by the flood, and the few sturdy houses that survived were flooded to the point where only the roofs were exposed.

The farmlands at the foot of the mountain were all flooded.

Thinking of the crops in the fields that had not yet been harvested, the villagers who had recovered from their shock couldn't help but slap their thighs and cry out in pain.

"My food..."

"We were about to start harvesting in a few days, but now everything is ruined!"

"God is blind!"

"How could Jiangling Weir burst its banks?"

"Yes, didn't the imperial court allocate funds to repair the dam last year?"

"Houses and fields are flooded, what should we do?"

"The imperial court should provide disaster relief, right?"

The villagers were talking to each other, their eyes filled with worry and confusion about the future.

Yun Fuling found a rock to sit on and rest.

Although this body had been repaired by the spiritual water, she was still exhausted after climbing to the top of the mountain carrying Yun Jingmo.

The rain gradually stopped and the sun peeked out from the clouds again.

Yun Fuling looked up at the position of the sun and estimated that it was around two or three o'clock in the afternoon.

Yun Jingmo, covered under a raincoat, couldn't help but twist his body a few times.

He was tied to Yun Fuling's chest and couldn't help feeling uncomfortable.

Yun Fuling saw that the flood water at the foot of the mountain was gradually slowing down. At this rate, it would be difficult for the water to reach the top of the mountain within a day or two.

She felt it was still safe at the moment, so she untied the rope that tied Yun Jingmo.

He then took off his raincoat and bamboo basket.

Yun Jingmo was free and immediately slid off Yun Fuling.

He jumped a few times on the spot, turned around and saw Yun Fuling looking tired, and immediately clenched his fists to massage her legs.

"Mom, does it hurt? Momo, give me a massage and it will stop hurting..."

Mom’s legs must be sore from running such a long distance carrying him.

He had seen a grandfather in the village working in the fields so tired that he complained of back pain, and this was how the grandfather's son gave him a back massage.

Yun Fuling didn't expect her adopted son to be so considerate. After a moment of hesitation, she reacted and immediately pulled him into her arms and kissed him on the face.

"My god, Momo, why are you so lovable? I love you so much!"

Realizing that his mother kissed him, Yun Jingmo was stunned for a moment and couldn't help blushing with shyness.

In the past, my mother didn’t like to be close to him, rarely hugged him, and never kissed him.

My mother always lay sick, often crying silently, and her eyes always showed sadness and anger when she looked at him.

Although Yun Jingmo didn't understand, he instinctively disliked that kind of grief and gloom.

He prefers his mother like this now, who will smile at him, hug him and kiss him.

The most important thing is that my mother said she loved him.

Children are most sensitive to the emotions of people around them.

Yun Jingmo always suspected that his mother didn't like him.

But now Yun Jingmo is sure that his mother actually loves him very much!

Yun Fuling was playing with her son when she suddenly felt a sense of malice falling on her.
