C143 Who's Calling for Help
He chased Xinzi down the slope between the greenery and rode all the way to the Yangxia River.
"The situation seems to be fine?" Xinzi stopped her bicycle and carefully protected her camera. She walked to the riverside to take a picture of the water level.
"Be careful!" Summer Thorned Green looked at her and quickly threw his bicycle away. He reached out and grabbed the girl's arm through the raincoat, pulling her back two steps from the shore.
"There's a railing here!" Xin Xiaozi was a little unconvinced. She continued to cover the camera with the raincoat and stretched out her arm to take a picture of the river, but she did not continue forward.
Xia Thorned Green looked at her and let go of her arm. "With such a heavy rain, even the railing might slip!"
He took out his single-lens reflection and said, "There are some scenes that you might not be able to capture clearly. There is one that you can temporarily assign to your work. What other photos do you want? Come and find me "
"What do you mean by giving me the job for the time being?" Xin Xiaozi followed beside him and secretly copied his angle. "If Big Bear and Little Bear also give me a temporary job, would you be willing?"
"Hey, can the content of your community work be compared to the standard of your business that I requested?" Xia Jiqing was proud of himself.
The River of Summer did not overflow the river, and it was still some distance away from the stone slabs at the back of the villa district. However, he had a feeling that. . . Thus, he walked down the viewing platform and passed through a natural grassland that had yet to be built. He wanted to go to the river bank, especially the old bridge.
Suddenly, Summer Thorns felt that the shoes on his feet were loosening. He turned around and saw that Xin Xiaozi was following behind him with a small order, stepping on his shoes.
. . . "I'm sorry. " When Xinzi saw him turn around, he lowered his head and saw that half of his left leg had been taken off from his shoes. He apologized guiltily.
Stranglethorn Green really wanted to give this girl a good look, but the wind and rain had been cast on her. He could not even open his eyes, so he could only look at Xinzi. He bared his teeth, "Aren't you afraid that this grass will slip and you'll fall into the mud again? Hurry up and go back!"
"Old Uncle told us to take a few more pictures where he feels that something will go wrong!" Xin Xiaoze was not afraid of showing his teeth. He continued to follow him to the riverside. "If you don't want me to take photos, tell Old Uncle. "
"Don't bring him here to scare me!" Stranglethorn Green said helplessly, "He's not my boss!"
"But you're a resident here, and you're also our service target!" Xinzi followed behind him. She felt that the wind and rain that blew on her were somewhat blocked, and her footsteps became firmer. "If I let you take a photo and throw it. . . I didn't take a picture of it myself. Old Uncle will definitely criticize me!"
Her words split her heart. Her feet slipped on the mud and wet grass, and she took a step forward. She almost crashed into Summer Thorny Green's back, and she quickly used her hands to support herself.
Even though Summer Thorn was usually diligent in sports, she could not withstand such a pile of her. She could not help but take two steps forward, and she almost fell on the slope that was mixed with shallow puddles and mud pits.
"You! If you really want to take pictures, then go by yourself. What's wrong with following behind me and causing trouble?" He was really a little angry.
"There's only one path. It's you who always rush to the front!" Xinzi made a mistake, and a warm expression appeared on his face. Fortunately, the wind and rain were pouring down on him, so he didn't seem to be blushing.
She took a few steps forward in a fit of anger and rushed to the old bridge in front of Stranglethorn Green.
"Are you really not afraid of death?" Stranglethorn Green was really angry. He grabbed her arm and threw her backwards. "Even if you can swim, with such a heavy rain, the depth of the river and the flow are slow and rapid. Do you know that?"
Xin Xiaozi was frightened by his face full of rainwater and ashen face. He stood where he was and did not dare to move. He pursed his lips and looked at the big man who had lost his raincoat and hat without blinking.
Summer Thorned Green dropped his raincoat and hat. Her fashionable hair was immediately drenched by the rain and stuck to her head. A few strands of long hair blocked his sight, which greatly obstructed his vision. He reached his hand out to the side and wiped it hard. He stopped looking at Xin Xiaozi and carefully walked towards the river bank step by step.
The old bridge of the Yangxia River. On both sides of the river, the villa and residential areas that had already been developed were slightly taller than the original village terrain on the other side of the river.
At this moment, the river water was turbid due to the strong rainfall brought by the typhoon and slowly flowed under the bridge. However, under the old bridge, half of the wide bridge had been blocked by the miscellaneous objects that had been struck by the wind and rain. The water level that had been blocked had risen, and it was almost close to the top of the bridge.
Xia Jianqing quickly pressed the shutter button and took a few photos in a row. Then, he carefully walked towards the side of the old bridge.
"Be careful - -"
Xinzi was shocked when he saw this. He suppressed the grievance and anger from earlier and shouted at him. A gust of wind blew and blew into the girl's mouth. It was so cold that it almost made people unable to breathe.
Summer Thorned Green waved his hand backwards. He picked up a dry branch on the slope and walked to the top of the bridge. He took the branch and tried to probe the depth of the water, but he could not see the depth at all.
He tried to use the branch to remove the debris blocking the bridge. However, after a few degrees of waste, he could not remove the blockage.
Raising his head to look upstream of the Yangxia River, he discovered that there were more and more debris floating on the surface of the water, and his heart was filled with worry. He had no choice but to change locations as much as possible to take photos.
"Just now, I have already sent the photos that I took to your uncle. " He returned to Xinzi's side and brought her up the slope step by step. When he returned to the viewing platform, he was actually a little out of breath. "This typhoon is probably crossing the border. The rain will only get heavier and heavier. You should hurry back to the office. "
"What about you?" Xinzi pushed her bicycle, but she saw that he had already turned over and got on the bicycle. He actually seemed to ride in the opposite direction from her.
"I'll go take a look at Old Qiao. " Xia Jianqing hid his SLR camera in front of his chest and tried to tighten the collar and sleeves of his raincoat to prevent them from being blown away by the wind and rain again.
"Is there a problem? I'll go with you!" Xinzi turned the head of the bicycle.
"Don't make trouble for me!" Xia Jianqing almost roared out.
Seeing the girl stop in shock, he sighed again. "Then we won't have to worry about the residential area anymore, more than two miles. There's also an old bridge, I'll go take a look at the situation. "
"What will happen?" Xin Xiaosi didn't know what he was worried about by following him.
"The overall water level of the Yangxia River is still alright. The new city doesn't really know how to guard the water level. " Xia Thorned Green stretched out his hand and gestured. "But the old bridge is too low, and the terrain of the vegetable fields is too low. I'm worried that the narrow river in the old bridge might overflow, and the farmers' vegetables will be wasted!"
"Then. . . Be careful. You said it yourself, the shore is slippery, don't fall into the river! I won't follow. If you fall into the river, no one will help you call for help!" Xin Xiaozi explained in a mess.
"Heh!" When Xia Thorn saw her puffed cheeks, he could not help but laugh out loud. Following which, his voice became louder and louder, "Hahaha. . . "
"What are you laughing at?" Xinzi also got on her bicycle and turned the car around.
"N-Nothing. . . Let's go back. "
Thorned Summer Green pedaled along the slope and the small road by the side and rode on it.
Duan Sunflower hurriedly ate the dumplings sent by the volunteers and checked the other residential areas.
Although the wind was strong and the rain was heavy, he raised the volume of his phone to the maximum and specially learned how to use Bluetooth from Little Weng. He stuffed the Bluetooth headphones into his ears so that he could pay attention to the feedback from the various WeChat and QQ groups at any time.
When he followed the person in charge of Ya Eryuan's residential committee to patrol the drainage situation in the neighborhood, he received a message from Summer Thorned Green, who seldom contacted him. After taking a look at the notification on the screen, he quickly ran to the entrance of the corridor with a rainproof board.
A high-definition photo frame made the community leader of Dongjiang New City apprehensive. He ignored the strong wind and rushed forward. The rain fell on him. He hurriedly called the person in charge of the streets on WeChat. Then, he forwarded all the photos sent by Xia Thorned Green.
"What's wrong, Old Uncle?" The person in charge of Ya Er Garden's neighborhood committee sensed his nervousness and asked. "I saw those photos. They don't seem to be in our new city. "
Cheng Sunflower wiped the water on the phone screen with his large hand and replied, "They're from a few villages near the Yangxia River that are about to move. Although that isn't the work of the new city, lips and teeth are interdependent. Let's give them a heads up. It's only right to call for help! "
