Small Lingzhi

As the night deepened, the torrential rain became thicker, and the torches lit all around illuminated the muddy and monstrous water.

At this moment, a few bolts of lightning fell from the sky, and the rumbling thunder made Lingzhi tremble.

He tightened the rope tied at the front of his neck, staggered to stand up from the ground while supporting the stone, and straightened his body.

The rain hat worn on the head can cover the rain when the rain is still light during the day. When it rains suddenly at this time, the wind around the dam is very strong. When the wind blows, the hat is crooked, and the rope is pulling the slender neck son.

Lingzhi pursed her lips tightly and dared not open her mouth, because when she opened her mouth, rainwater and muddy water would run into her mouth.

The rescue process has become more and more difficult.

When Xiao Yan brought people here, he found Lingzhi's shaky figure in the dark night.

He ordered his subordinates to lead the group of successors over there, while he stepped forward to pull Ling Zhi away.

With a light force, it is easy to pull Lingzhi, who has already exhausted his physical strength, away from the place.

Lingzhi stepped on the muddy water and was greatly hindered, unable to keep up with Xiao Yan's pace.

So Xiao Yan simply hugged him up, and the busy figure behind him gradually disappeared from Lingzhi's vision.

He couldn't use the remaining strength in his arms, legs and feet, so he asked softly, "Is it not possible to save?"

Xiao Yan said: "Your bodies are already overloaded, let the next batch of people take over, go back and rest for a night to replenish your physical strength."

Lingzhi's reaction was a bit slow, he just said "oh" in a daze, and when the wind blew, the rain hat was tilted.

He frowned and raised his arm to straighten it out, but Xiao Yan told him to untie it and let him hold the umbrella.

So Lingzhi untied the things he had been wearing for a long time, his legs and feet regained some strength, he kicked his legs slightly: "I'll go by myself."

Xiao Yan shook his head: "It's too slow to walk, go back earlier."

Xiao Yan got on the horse, and Lingzhi sat sideways in his arms, and was firmly surrounded by Xiao Yan's arms.

He was holding an umbrella, trying to stretch his arms so that the umbrella could cover the two of them, and the dark tree shadows began to recede in his field of vision.

Soon after, Xiao Yan took Lingzhi back to the courtyard where she lived, but did not send Lingzhi back to the small courtyard crowded with the doctors.

He turned over and got off the horse, and when Lingzhi was about to climb off the horse, his palm pierced through his arm, and he hugged Lingzhi firmly and put him on the ground.

Lingzhi bent her knees and almost lost her footing.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan supported his arm and took the umbrella.

"Are you ok?"

Lingzhi nodded: "It's just that the legs are a little numb."

His lips moved, and he asked in a low voice: "Xiao Yan, why didn't you send me back to my yard."

Xiao Yan said: "It's more convenient here."

The servant had prepared hot water and hot food before the master came back. Xiao Yan went back to the house to wash, and changed the dirty robe that was soaked in mud and water, and the wet black hair fell loosely behind him. Outside the door of the next wing room, through the window paper, I can vaguely see the figure shaking inside.

After Lingzhi took a bath, she changed into clean clothes, but her hair was still wet.

He saw a figure behind the door and thought it was a servant waiting for him.

Just as he was about to open the door to send people away first, he subconsciously took two steps back when he met Xiao Yan's downcast eyes.

Before the words came out, Xiao Yan said: "I'm next to you, let's go eat first."

Lingzhi walked slowly, Xiao Yan slowed down to match his pace.

A few simple home-cooked dishes paired with a soup is just right for two people.

The dining table here is not as wide and long as it was in the Grand Master's Mansion. Lingzhi and Xiao Yan are located very close to each other, as long as they raise their arms and stretch out, they can touch each other.

The sound of pattering rain is especially clear in this situation, the sound of both of them eating is very small, Lingzhi eats with subtle movements, and Xiao Ni is slow and calm.

After feeling a bit full, Xiao Yan stopped her movements after drinking the soup and her body warmed up, silently looking at Lingzhi's face.

His eyes were not oppressive, they were as natural as usual, simply watching Lingzhi eat.

Lingzhi drank the soup in the bowl, licked the grease stains on her lips with the tip of her tongue, and said, "I'm full."

He didn't meet Xiao Yan's gaze, let alone turn his face to look at her.

Xiao Yan leaned over, paused slightly when he tried to lift Lingzhi's arm, and turned his face to watch the young man at a close distance.

"Where are the injuries?"

Some of the workers treated by Lingzhi were crushed in relatively low corners, and he had to get down to rescue them.

Therefore, the hands and feet are easily scratched by the mixed stones in the soil, Xiao Yan wanted to lift Lingzhi's trousers and sleeves to check.

Lingzhi slightly blocked Xiao Yan's hand: "I've already taken the medicine."

Xiao Yan's face darkened, but her voice softly sighed: "I don't want you to get hurt."

Lingzhi shook her head, looked directly into Xiao Yan's eyes with clear and pure eyes, and explained to him seriously: "A little bump is nothing compared to an injured worker."

Rao Lingzhi didn't understand the importance of water conservancy. After staying around the dam for half a day, he gradually became able to understand the current situation.

He loosened his lips and asked, "Xiao Yan, if the dam is washed away, will most of the farmland be flooded?"

He thought for a while and continued: "There are still villages and towns downstream, will the lives of the people be in danger?"

Xiao Yan made a hoarse voice, seeing Lingzhi's focused and careful expression, he couldn't help stroking the back of his slightly wet hair.

He said: "Not only will the farmland be flooded, but the villages along the coast and in the lower places will be damaged, houses will collapse, and many people will die."

Before Lingzhi's face changed, Xiao Yan said: "I have ordered people to evacuate all the people in the area. The losses caused by the flood will be reissued with the disaster money allocated from the national treasury."

Lingzhi put away his dazed expression, his peripheral vision moved away from Xiao Yan's face, and he couldn't help looking at the other's hand.

He pointed to Xiao Yan's tiger's mouth: "You are injured."

There were bloodstains from scratches on Xiao Yan's tiger's mouth, the blood stopped, and the sides of the wound were slightly turned outwards.

Lingzhi hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her index finger, like a little rabbit that could be frightened at any time, in front of this handsome face that was close at hand, and lifted a little of Xiao Yan's hair.

Lingzhi saw that Xiao Yan's left brow bone was also bloodstained by the stone.

"you……"

Xiao Yan spoke to him first, with a soft tone: "The bleeding area still hurts, can you help me take a look."

He looked into Lingzhi's eyes and said slowly, "Help me?"

Just now Lingzhi applied medicine to himself in the room, so he carried ready-made hemostatic and anti-inflammatory powder in his arms.

Xiao Yan's muddy figure when he left today suddenly appeared in his mind. He nodded in a strange way, his voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible.

"Okay, you sit up straighter."

Xiao Yan was close, so he could hear this weak response clearly.

He cocked his mouth and did as he said.

Lingzhi deftly lifted the lid of the medicine bottle, applied a layer of moisturizing ointment to the scar on the side of Xiao Yan's brow bone, and rubbed her fingertips around the skin until the ointment was almost absorbed before opening another bottle The powder is sprinkled on.

He was so close to Xiao Ling, the slightly bitter medicinal fragrance poured into Xiao Lin's nostrils, filling his heart and lungs, like fluffy cat paws gently scratching his heart and lungs.

Xiao Yan took the lead to look away from Lingzhi's serious face. At this time, Lingzhi pulled a low stool, sat in front of his knee, grabbed his wrist with the palm of a tiger's mouth and placed it on his knee, with ointment on his fingertips.

The eyelashes that the boy blinked occasionally were fully visible, and his lips were moistened and reddened by the soup.

Xiao Yan's mind was moved, and his Adam's apple rolled.

He said, "Lingzhi, why are you so nice?"

As if expressing her inner emotion, Xiao Yan's other uninjured hand tightened and tightened, trying to hug Lingzhi.

Xiao Yan can't get enough of Lingzhi, the nostalgia in his eyes is calm, like a dense web formed by spider silk, it will definitely become invisible at this moment, and his eyes will wrap Lingzhi from head to toe with the net like a substance, completely wrapped tightly shrouded.

Lingzhi hastily sprinkled powder on Xiao Yan's tiger's mouth, and he got up from the low stool, almost falling backwards.

Pushing away the arm supported by Xiao Yan, Lingzhi said seriously: "I'm leaving."

After speaking, he quickly picked up the umbrella outside the door and ran away in a panic.

The road outside the yard was dark and stormy.

Lingzhi didn't know the way, and while he was hesitating, Xiao Yan appeared behind him with another umbrella.

Xiao Yan said, "I'll see you off."

Lingzhi pursed her lips and nodded.

"Thank you."

Xiao Yan felt helpless, and said: "If there are still injuries that need to be treated tomorrow, just ask other doctors to come over. You can rest for a while, don't be brave."

Lingzhi was speechless.

The two walked in silence one after the other until Lingzhi returned to the small courtyard where she stayed, stood at the door and looked at the man under the stairs, raised her head slightly, and retorted softly: "I didn't try to be brave."

After he finished speaking, he ran away, leaving behind Xiao Yan who was "hated". After regaining his senses, the corners of his mouth could not stop smiling, and his heartbeat was steady and accelerated.

**

The next day, Lingzhi followed several doctors to the vicinity of the dam.

The leading officer and soldier saw him, quickly followed behind, and said in a low voice: "Little doctor, the grand master told you to pay attention to rest, don't go over there and get tired."

Lingzhi turned a deaf ear.

Several doctors met the workers who were going to the dam to take over the work of yesterday night. Everyone was wearing raindrops and rushing on the road, and no one spoke on the road.

The sky is still engulfed under the dark clouds, and there are many workers who are repairing and strengthening the dam at night lying on both sides of the dam.

They all had injuries of varying degrees on their bodies, and when they were exhausted and collapsed, they lay down on the spot panting for breath, and only after regaining their senses did they take out a few mouthfuls of the soaked rations.

Lingzhi began to bandage the more serious workers. The workers were tired and thirsty, and could not lift their fingers. Lingzhi would also feed them some water.

The workers have some complaints, but they don’t complain. After all, the grand master will appear on the front line in front of the dam every day to be with them. If you want to talk about suffering, the grand master is so honorable. When a dam is repaired, they have no complaints, they are just complaining to the sky.

Lingzhi wrapped up the wounds of the workers in the area he was in charge of, and after an hour, he could barely lift his waist.

At this moment, the rain is light, but the clouds are as thick as ink, making people breathless.

Lingzhi's mouth was dry, and he was about to take a sip out of the water bag when he saw the officers and soldiers leading the workers in front to evacuate, telling them to back away quickly as they ran.

Lingzhi asked, "What happened?"

He dragged him to the officers and soldiers and said, "The grand master issued a strict order to let everyone leave the dam."

The clouds were dark, and the vision was hazy.

Lingzhi was a little uneasy: "Why didn't he come?"

Lingzhi turned around while running, the officer and soldier said: "The Grand Master led the people to evacuate, just pass through this mountain road, everyone hurry up!"

Lingzhi raised her head and looked at the mountainside ahead.

He vaguely saw a falling rock slipping from the mountain, and his steps were unsteady.

Just as he was about to rub his eyes and take a closer look uncertainly, his whole body seemed to be shaken by drums and thunder, his heart tightened, and someone shouted: "The water is coming, run quickly—"

The ground trembled and the mountains shook, and the rain that gradually picked up made my eyelashes hard to open.

Lingzhi reacted chaotically with the crowd. There was an earthquake, and the Li Dam had been broken away and flooded.

The spreading muddy water washed people away in an instant, the mountain road shook,

Yellowish water gushed out of the cracked pavement.

Lingzhi was hanging on a tree pole, trembling all over, her hands and feet were weak.

He swallowed his sore throat, and when he saw a stone hitting his face, Lingzhi let go of his hand and was washed away along the turbulent muddy water.

His eyes were full of darkness, and someone hugged him.

Xiao Yan hummed in a low voice, hooking a place with an iron tool with one hand.

Lingzhi looked up in panic, and he saw Xiao Yan's jaw tightened, and his voice was tight and fluttering.

"Xiao Yan, how should we run..."

There was water everywhere, and the speed of the water was so fast that most of the people who were around just now disappeared without a trace.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another sudden and strong shaking.

The rocks on the mountain continued to collapse, rushing straight down along the water.

Even if people are not drowned, they will be crushed to death by these collapsed stones.

Xiao Yan turned her back and said in a low voice, "Hold your breath hard."

There is no extra time to think, and it is difficult to find a set of self-rescue methods in a short time when encountering muddy water submersion and earthquakes.

In front of Lingzhi was Xiao Yan who firmly blocked him, and his blurred vision quickly reversed.

The two of them were like a small boat shaking rapidly in the muddy water. Before the next huge wave and rocks hit, Lingzhi's consciousness was much more chaotic, he couldn't see anything, and his ears were filled with faint shaking sounds, And the boundless, rushing sound of water.

When Lingzhi woke up again, she couldn't stop choking out a gust of water.

It is still dim in front of my eyes, and there is still hopeless water light around me.

His body was heavy, his head was swollen like water, and he was muddled.

After a while, he realized that he was lying on someone's back, and someone was carrying him slowly floating.

Lingzhi hoarse voice, as if her throat had been cut open.

"Is it Xiao Yan..."

Xiao Yan's voice was even hoarse than his, and his voice was short.

"Keep quiet and stay strong."

Lingzhi felt that Xiao Yan was panting, and he felt uneasy and panicked, but he didn't dare to move, fearing that if he moved, he would add burden to Xiao Yan.

Holding the wooden pillar, Xiao Yan used the skill of drowning to float Lingzhi for a long time, and he was able to go ashore at dawn.

The two were lying on the shore panting, Xiao Yan grabbed Lingzhi's hand and squeezed it slightly, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Can you go, you go up first."

If the water rises again, neither of them will be able to walk up.

Lingzhi climbed up with his heavy arms, he was tottering, and was about to leave, for a moment, he turned his head unresponsively.

"And you?

The words stopped, and Lingzhi looked in horror at the blood-red water spreading around Xiao Yan, as well as his shoulders and the part in front of his body where the dark blood dripped, almost fell, and crawled back to Xiao Yan to help him into it with difficulty. arms.

"Xiao Yan, you are injured."

Lingzhi's arm hugging Xiao Yan's neck was dyed red, he suppressed the blurred tears in his eyes, and dragged Xiao Yan, who was bleeding profusely from his front and back, and carried him ashore.

With his choked throat, he could hardly breathe. On the shore, his hands trembling, he slightly lifted Xiao Yan's bloody clothing sticking to the flesh.

The wound on Xiao Yan's body was stuck together with his robe, and the blood was dirty.

Lingzhi opened her eyes wide, blinked, and tears rolled down.

He didn't have any herbs with him, so he didn't dare to open them all at this moment, so he patted the cold face of the other party in fear.

"... Xiao Yan, don't die, wait a little longer."
