They say fire and water have no mercy.

A slightly larger flood can cause great losses to everyone.

As for the destructive power of the flood peak, it is more than 10 times more powerful than the subsequent flood.

Luo Xuan and Li Xue were ups and downs in the wind and waves, tumbling endlessly.

Because the flood peak contains a large amount of sediment and debris, and these things are constantly rolling up and down due to the influence of eddy currents.

Luo Xuan and Li Xue, who were tightly tied together by ropes, were stacked on top of each other. For a while, Luo Xuan was on top and Li Xue was on the bottom.

As the waves rolled, the two of them immediately fell apart again: Li Xue on top and Luo Xuan on the bottom.

Such constant rolling caused the two of them to take turns drinking a large amount of flood water.

It made the two of them dizzy, their bodies were constantly turbulent, and they couldn't stop vomiting.

The flood water was turbid, with a large amount of sediment and debris, as well as the remains of many drowned animals.

The pungent smell of mud, blood, and flood water made Li Xue and Luo Xuan choke. Their noses and tears flowed together, and vomit and blood foam flowed together.

The two of them floated up and down in the rolling torrent and suffered all kinds of torture.

Finally, at a ravine about 30 miles downstream from the Shilipu production team, it began to part ways with the roaring main stream of the Wuding River.

In the low-lying part of this ravine.

Members of the local production team, in order to prevent spring floods from rushing into the ravine and destroying the land there.

Therefore, these members of the Shilipu Commune in "Suide County" built a simple earth dam early on at the edge of the ravine near the Wuding River.

But this sand and earth dam can withstand the floods in previous years when the water level was not too high and the flow rate was not particularly fast.

But this year's spring floods are not only heavy and fierce, but the water level is also unusually high.

Under the impact of one wave after another, wait until the wave that carries Luo Xuan arrives.

This earthen dam finally could not withstand the rolling floods, and was washed away one after another.

"Rumble--"

The originally huge flood, coupled with the loud noise caused by the collapse of the earth dam, suddenly filled the entire world.

The power of sound waves is amazing!

Especially in floods, the lethality of sound waves is infinitely amplified, and in an instant, Luo Xuan, who can still maintain a trace of sanity, is shocked and faints.

At this time, Li Xue had already been choked by the turbid flood water and fell into a coma, with no information about her personnel.

I don't know how long it took.

When Luo Xuan Youyou woke up, he found that he had been washed away by the flood into a huge cellar located in a ravine and washed out alive by the flood.

This cellar is very high, about 15.6 feet.

The overall shape is a clay pot with a small mouth and a large belly.

With a structure like this, it is indeed extremely difficult for people trapped inside to escape.

In the cellar, there was the sound of water.

A turbid and yellowish flood continued to flow down from above, bringing bursts of loud "rumbling" sounds and countless splashes of water.

It's just that these water mist and water splashes have no beauty at all.

Just because the water flow contains a high amount of sediment, the splashing water droplets that fall on people's bodies are full of stains and scale.

Luo Xuan shook his head and tried to wake up a little bit.

"Wow--"

It was okay not to move, but when Luo Xuan moved a little, his already groggy and dizzy head suddenly became even more dizzy.

The smell of turbid sewage in the stomach is really uncontrollable in one's throat.

Just hearing a "wow" sound, a large stream of indescribable sewage in Luo Xuan's mouth suddenly turned into a column of water that was fishier and filthy than the flood, and suddenly spewed out.

Wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, Luo Xuan vomited a few more times, and finally managed to stabilize his mind and began to focus his eyes hard to observe his current situation.

He has now fallen into a huge earth and stone cave. It may be unrealistic to escape in the short term.

The rope tied around his waist made Luo Xuan's thinking a little clearer.

Turning around and looking under her body, she saw that Li Xue was so dirty that it was almost impossible to recognize her true appearance in the thick, yet soft mud because it was full of water. She was so deep in it.

It turned out that it was just now when the two of them were rushed into this cave by a huge flood.

Because the two were tied together on a rope, Li Xue and Luo Xuan changed their positions with each other in the turbid flood, and fell from the top of the cave.

When the two people finally crashed into the mud, they smashed deeply into the cave in a posture with Li Xue at the bottom and Luo Xuan at the top.

At the peak of the flood, the earth dam collapsed and initially overflowed into this gully.

In fact, there was no such crypt at that time.

But underneath the thick soil on the high loess slopes, there are countless coal layers and rock layers formed in the Jurassic, as well as some rare earth, magnesium ore, and salt mines.

Therefore, some holes will be formed under some loess soil.

In previous years, due to the lack of water in Saibei, these cavities hidden under the thick loess were not exposed.

After this rare flood washed away the retaining wall beside the gully.

This cave collapsed suddenly under the erosion and penetration of the waves, swallowing up the dead trees next to it.

At the same time, Luo Xuan and Li Xue were also swallowed up by the flood.

Fortunately, in the early days when the floods washed out the cave, the cave was far from as big and deep as it is now.

This made Luo Xuan and Li Xue lucky enough to save half their lives.

Most people in Saibei live in very concentrated areas.

This underground cave was far away from the village where the production team members gathered. How could Luo Xuan, who was dizzy and his internal organs were churning, dare to waste his energy calling for help?

Turning around and bending down, Luo Xuan pulled the unconscious Li Xue hard, but found that he couldn't pull her down in the mud at all.

Looking up at the top of the crumbling cave, I saw the huge piece of loess with cracks already appearing.

Luo Xuan was worried that the soil would collapse again and he might have to move Li Xue to a higher place quickly.

But with the little remaining strength I have, I can never pull Li Xue away.

In desperation, Luo Xuan could only forcefully mobilize his thoughts and use his powerful mental power to finally pull Li Xue out of the mud!

"puff--"

Unexpected!

His body was weak, his organs were damaged, and now he was exerting force. Luo Xuan felt like the world was spinning, and he felt strong urges to vomit.

His throat could no longer suppress the blood, and with a pop, a large mouthful of blood splattered everywhere from Luo's mouth!

With the help of the weak light, Luo Xuan could clearly see that Li Xue, who was covered in yellow, had his own blood sprayed all over his head and face.

Just like the blooming red plums, it’s shocking to see

"Well--"

Li Xue let out a painful and weak moan, and her fingertips moved slightly.

But she still seemed to be in a coma and had not woken up.

After pulling Li Xue out of the mud, Luo Xuan had not yet taken a breath.

I only heard another burst of strange noises coming from above the cave, "rumbling--".

I don’t know if the loess at the top of the cave is about to collapse, or if the second wave of flood peaks has passed the collapsed earth dam and surged towards the cave again?

"Rumble--"

The sound is getting louder and closer.

Luo Xuan ignored the pain of his blurred vision and splitting headache, and quickly picked up Li Xue and moved to the top of the slope formed by the mud.

Unfortunately.

Once this kind of loess is soaked for a long time, it will turn into something similar to molten asphalt. Once you fall into it, it will be difficult to move forward.

The situation was urgent, and Luo Xuan could no longer care about anything, so he quickly used his thoughts again and ran desperately to the mound of mud!

Fortunately, my mental power used to be as high as 1,000 kilograms.

Although my body is weak now, my will is also damaged, so that my mental power can only maintain 1/3 of what it was before.

But at least with the blessing of that powerful will power, Luo Xuan carried the limp Li Xue on his back, and after many twists and turns, he finally got rid of the constraints of the mud trap.

Afterwards, the two came to the mud pile and under the sandstone wall of the cave.

Because we were worried that the top of the cave would collapse, and we were afraid that the second wave of floods would continue to pour into the cave, we could not stay here longer and had to evacuate to higher ground quickly.

Luo Xuan gritted his teeth and used all his strength to climb up the gravel wall.

In the middle of the cave, above the wall made of sand and stone, there is a naturally formed cavity.
