The weather was as Zhu Ping'an expected, after the sun set, the east wind gradually rose, the trees in the courtyard began to shake, the leaves of the trees danced wildly, and the dark clouds in the sky were like a boundless black curtain, gradually pulling over from the eastern sky, and soon enveloped the sky over Jingnan.

To be exact, it covers half of the Jiangnan.

After the dark clouds covered the sky, the earth instantly darkened, and the phoenix gradually became larger, whistling, and the ghost cried and whined like a wolf, like the devil sounding the horn of conquering the world.

"The mountain rain is coming, and the wind is full of buildings."

Zhu Ping'an stood in the courtyard, his clothes fluttering, his hands wide sleeves behind his back, feeling the howling wind in the courtyard, looking at the dark clouds in the sky that were getting lower and lower, and couldn't help but sigh.

As soon as Zhu Ping'an's words fell, heavy raindrops the size of beans crackled in the sky. Da! Da! Da! The sound of raindrops falling on the ground was like the sound of a machine gun.

"Uncle, it's raining outside, come inside." The voice of the little girl with the bun sounded at the door, and she was about to go out with her skirt, and there was a posture that if you don't enter the house, I will drag you in.

"Here we are."

Zhu Ping'an nodded and walked towards the house.

When Zhu Ping'an just walked into the house, the sound of rain outside had changed from a "click" sound to a "whoosh" sound.

It was raining heavily.

Zhu Ping'an stood at the door and looked out, it was pitch black outside, and he couldn't see it clearly from a distance, but he could vaguely see it up close, and the heavy rain formed a rain curtain, knocking on the ground fiercely, and a layer of white fog splashed on the roof and courtyard wall. This kind of flying fog landscape can only occur if the rain is heavy enough to occur.

The small water in the yard grew wildly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after a while, the water flowed into a river.

When Zhu Ping'an was paying attention to the rain outside, many people were also paying attention to this torrential rain.

"It's raining so hard, it's not a good sign."

An old man in Jingnan Township stood under the eaves on crutches, looking at the pouring rain outside, and frowned.

"Yes, the rain has only stopped for less than two days, and the heavy rain has started again. Fortunately, our county magistrate took precautions and urged us to repair the embankment in front of the village. ”

The other old man nodded, thinking of the previous dike full of holes, and couldn't help but say with palpitations.

"Yes, fortunately, our county master has foresight. Those idle offspring in our village, bullshit doesn't understand, yesterday they were still talking nonsense, the county lord is rare and strange, blindly directing the people to work, if it wasn't now dark, I would have to go to their house on crutches to see if they still have faces, I have to point at their noses and scold. The old man on crutches couldn't help but knock his crutches twice when he thought of yesterday's events.

The neighboring Taiping County Ya is holding a banquet to celebrate the new magistrate's performance of Taiping County for a month.

The new magistrate sits in the main seat, the big and small officials of the yamen gather together, the dishes such as chicken, duck and fish on the table are carefully cooked, and the two jars of red Shaoxing wine open the altar stopper, exuding a mouth-watering aroma of wine.

This banquet was held after the release of the government, the weather was not bad, the fish scale clouds in the sky were beautiful, so that the new magistrate of the county poetry flourished, and made a song on the spot "Autumn Taiping Flying Fish Cloud" eight-word quatrain, all the people present applauded and praised, so that the new magistrate county added a lot of light to his face, and the wine banquet suddenly entered a good situation.

Before the wine passed the third round, the weather outside changed color suddenly, first the east wind, then the dark clouds overwhelmed the sky, the sky was dark in an instant, and then the raindrops the size of beans began to fall from the sky, and soon the raindrops the size of beans became a torrential rain, and it began to fall loudly.

The new magistrate looked at the pouring rain outside the house, and the wine and meat on the table suddenly became unfragrant, and his mood became irritable.

Everyone present couldn't understand why the county lord's mood suddenly fell, and only the staff knew the inside story.

The banquet ended hastily, and the new Taiping Zhixian looked at the pouring rain outside with a gloomy face, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Dong Weng, do you want to start flood control?" After the staff wanted to speak several times and stopped, they finally couldn't help it and asked cautiously.

It has been raining for twelve days in a row, and now it is pouring rain, which is not a good sign, the staff knows that the owner does not like this stubble, but out of duty, he still risks touching his head, and reminded him. The water towns in the south of the Yangtze River are also flooded, so we have to pay more attention to it.

"It's too late, let's see how it goes tomorrow." The new Taiping Zhixian said expressionlessly.

Seeing this, the staff said no more.

Not long after the heavy rain fell, Tan Lun, the prefect of Taizhou, who presided over the training in the new army barracks, could not sit still, worried that the heavy rain might cause floods, and handed over the affairs of the new barracks to Zuo Zhen.

It's just that when the troops were first trained, in order to avoid disturbance and better train the troops, the new army barracks were selected in the mountains.

The road was slippery after dark, the rain was pouring down, and the mountain road was difficult to walk, and when Tan Lun rushed back to Taizhou Mansion, it was already late at night.

This was a heavy rain that stretched for most of the south of the Yangtze River, and the torrential rain was so rapid and heavy that it did not stop the next day, and the water systems of all parts of the Yangtze River rose to water, and some rivers rose over the riverbed overnight and spread to the embankment.

The rain was so heavy that it showed no sign of stopping, and no matter how dull it was, people were worried that the rain would continue to fall, but that it would be a disaster.

There are only some children, carefree and barefoot, chasing and playing in the water, jumping and singing nursery rhymes: Tianwuwu, want to rain. Ah Gong raised a hoe to dig taro, digging and digging, digging and digging, digging and digging a whirling mule, A doll wanted to cook salty, and Grandma wanted to cook lightly, and the two fought to break the tripod.

Zhu Ping'an got up early, put on his coat, led the horses, and went out with Liu Dadao and others to inspect the rain in the towns below. Along the way, Zhu Ping'an clearly felt the power of this heavy rain.

The wind and rain were heavy, the sky was dark, endless, and the torrential rain seemed to leak from the sky.

The surface of the river, the river, the lake, the surface of the surface is expanding, and every body of water in Jingnan is rapidly expanding their power, swelling their bodies, flooding wildness, not crossing the riverbed, slapping the embankment, testing the bearing capacity of the embankment.

Although he made preparations for flood control and flood control in advance, and although he found that the flood control and flood control situation in various places was not bad after visiting several places, Zhu Ping'an still couldn't help but worry in the face of this endless heavy rain. In the face of nature, human beings are so small that modern times cannot prevent floods, let alone ancient times.
