The end of natural disasters: the daily life of child brides in ancient times

At this time, most people on the boat were hiding in the house, looking out with the door open.

Lu Qingqing originally thought of going into a nearby room to hide.

However, the person in the room closed the door directly when he saw her running over.

Fortunately, the family next door greeted her.

"Young man, come in quickly, come to me!"

Lu Qingqing didn't care about anything else, she quickly rushed into the house and thanked everyone in the house.

The man from that house waved his hands, stared at the hail outside, and said with emotion:

"Young man, you are so brave.

How dare you go out when there is such big hail?

But it's a good thing you threw those planks down.

Otherwise, the boatmen below would have to go back to avoid the hail."

Lu Qingqing smiled at them politely, then looked outside.

At this moment, the boat was getting closer and closer to the shore.

But the hailstones kept getting bigger and bigger.

The man at the bow pulled the rope desperately, directing everyone to move the boat.

There was a loud "bang" from the wooden board above his head, accompanied by the sound of the board breaking.

The two people who were holding up the wooden board with the bow of the boat slightly tilted the board.

Then I saw a hailstone bigger than my palm falling down.

Looking at the huge hailstones, several people were so frightened that their breathing stopped for a moment.

Fortunately, there was a wooden board blocking it. If this thing had hit me directly on the head, I would have died on the spot!

The fear in the situation made the hands of several people holding the rope tremble.

The captain was the first to react and shouted to the boatman beside him:

"Hurry, move the boat over!"

When he roared, his voice was trembling.

But at this moment, the boatmen were focused on the hail and did not notice the vibration.

At the same time, above the single room where Lu Qingqing was, the sound of hail hitting the roof became louder and louder.

Everyone in the room was a little panicked.

Lu Qingqing looked at the furnishings in the room and pointed under the bed.

"Quick, get under the bed and take shelter!"

Everyone in the room panicked and quickly crawled under the bed when they heard this.

Lu Qingqing followed behind and quickly got in.

Almost as soon as I entered, I heard the sound of wooden boards breaking on the roof.

'Boom! '

A hailstone with a diameter of more than 20 centimeters broke through the roof and fell into the house.

The splashing ice chips hit several people in the face, scaring them to scream.

But this big hailstorm is just the beginning.

Next, there were continuous banging sounds.

The sound of hailstones falling was accompanied by people's screams and shouts.

Lu Qingqing and the others under the bed tried to shrink back under the bed.

At the same time, use your hands to protect your head and face to prevent hail debris from injuring your head and face.

When vision disappears, hearing becomes extra sensitive.

Amid the sound of falling hail, Lu Qingqing caught the sound of crying and shouting from next door.

"Boss, don't scare me!

"Wow, there's so much blood, what should I do, what should I do?"

But at this time, he was not the only one who was injured.

Some people who failed to dodge in time or were unlucky were injured, some seriously but some lightly.

Of course, many more are safe.

Many people who reacted quickly hid under their beds when the hail started to grow bigger.

Those who reacted faster seemed like Old Man Zhuang.

When the hail started to fall, Qin Lang was dragged under the bed.

Then, he piled everything in the room that could withstand harm onto the bed.

At this moment, the two of them were lying under the bed, with even quilts piled in front of them to block the debris splashed by hail.

However, even though the location was relatively safe, the crying and shouting around made people feel uneasy.

At this time, the situation on the deck was not optimistic.

The planks above the heads of some boatmen were smashed through by hailstones.

The broken wooden boards fell to the ground with a clatter.

The men hurriedly picked up the wooden planks and held them on their heads.

Without caring about anything else, he quickly ran into the house.

When the bow discovered this situation, they had to relocate people to this top.

At the same time, more and more large hailstones fell.

The canvas hanging on the boat was torn beyond recognition.

The captain of the ship was shocked and ordered everyone to speed up.

Fortunately, the ship was already very close to the big trees at this time.

The boatmen, holding the badly smashed wooden boards, quickly pulled the ropes and changed direction.

When they finally felt the force of the ship hitting the shore, everyone on the boat breathed a sigh of relief.

The captain and the boatmen quickly ran back to the room, holding the wooden planks.

At this time, a lot of large hailstones had already fallen on the ground of their house.

There were eight or nine big holes on the roof.

Seeing this, the captain shouted to the boatmen to hide under the beds.

Fortunately, they don’t have the habit of folding their quilts when they go to bed.

At this moment, the bedding was still piled on the bed.

It's an extra layer of protection.

The boatmen quickly spread the broken planks on the bed.

Then he crawled under the bed and looked outside.

At this moment, what they heard most was the sound of hail hitting the water.

During this time, there was also the occasional sound of hailstones cracking wooden boards.

However, with the trees providing cover, there were far fewer hailstones that actually hit the boat directly.

After a while, the hail finally stopped.

It was only after the hail stopped for a while that everyone slowly crawled out from their hiding place.

Lu Qingqing said goodbye to the family under the bed and quickly ran back to her own room.

On the way back, he happened to see Old Man Zhuang dragging Qin Lang out from under the bed.

Seeing her come back, he hurried forward to take a look at her.

Seeing that she was not injured, he complained:

"Girl, how can you be so bold?

The hail was falling so heavily just now, why did you run out?

If anything happens to you, what will Xiao Lang and I do? "

Seeing that the old man was really angry, Lu Qingqing hurried forward to comfort him.

Finally, the greedy old man was appeased by promising him a meal of braised pork.

Lu Qingqing looked at the roof of this single room. The condition was similar to the one where she had just hidden.

There are several large holes on the roof, through which you can directly see the gloomy sky.

Thinking about the journey ahead, she took out the wood that she had previously used to prop up the carriage to block the hail.

With a little help, he climbed up to the roof in three or two steps, stepping on the wall.

She unrolled the tarpaulin and spread it over the roof.

It took three pieces of oilcloth to cover the room for her and Old Man Zhuang.

At this time, Old Man Zhuang handed her a wooden board from below, and she took it and laid it directly on top.

After patching up the broken parts, he started working on Old Man Zhuang's house.

When all the work was done, the people next door started to put things on the roof.

Lu Qingqing turned over and started to go back to the house to pack up.

The hail and wood chips on the ground need to be cleaned up.

In addition, the things in the room were piled up in a mess on the bed and also needed to be tidied up.

Fortunately, Old Man Zhuang reacted quickly and put all the pots, pans and other fragile items in the house under the bed early on.

As the two were busy, the crying around them became louder and louder.

More than twenty people died in the hailstorm.

Without exception, all of these people lived in the single rooms upstairs.

For more than half an hour after the hail stopped, the large ship stayed where it was for repairs.

The captain recruited about twenty women from the ship and began to repair the sails.

The captain himself led the boatmen to repair the boat everywhere.
