Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty First: This King Sleeps Awhile

Zhu Yunmo poked Boss Xue, this guy was scaring people, and quickly comforted him:

"The rope is tied tightly, and even if it slides down, we will hold you!"

Xiao Dong was so open-minded that he shook his head and said:

"It's okay, prince, don't worry, I'm not afraid. Even if it falls, it will fall. Anyway, my parents will have the young master to take care of me in the future, so I won't worry. If I can do it, I'll go down now."

After saying that, they rushed to the edge of the cliff, and the people followed and looked over. The mud and water mixed with sand and gravel in the valley below seemed to be higher than yesterday's height. It was only one person away from where they were hiding.

Yao Blacksmith stepped forward, took out a Heng-shaped safety pants from the bag, helped Xiao Dong put them on, and then knotted a rope into a sailor buckle, then gave a thumbs up to the back.

"Okay, slowly this guy goes down. Xiao Dong, remember to grab the rope with both hands, stare hard at the cliff with both feet, and walk down step by step. This is the safest."

Xiao Dong nodded vigorously, retreated backwards to the edge of the cliff, raised his thumbs at them, grabbed the rope, and walked slowly downwards, step by step very steadily.

Yao Blacksmith was already lying on the edge of the cliff, carefully directing these people to slowly lay the rope.

"Slow down, don't put too much at once, do it step by step. Just like that, Xiao Dong boldly takes downwards, and there are still one zhang... and there are still six steps... and you'll jump!"

With the last word shouting, Xiao Dong had landed steadily on the road below the cliff. He relaxed the rope, looked to the east side, shouting with his hands together:

"I saw someone!"

After saying that, he untied the rope and ran to the east side. Yao Blacksmith got up from the cliff and scratched his head with confusion.

"This guy was so scared that he was dying, why did he change his face in a moment? It's true!"

Xiao Dong, who was below, ran a few steps and saw some soldiers. These people saw the dark green clothes on his body, and slowly lowered the knife he had raised.

"Are you from Huichuntang?"

Xiao Dong nodded vigorously, "The rescue teams have all arrived. I am the first to come down to explore the way. Take me to see our young master."

Several soldiers quickly made way and led Xiao Dong to the tent where King Ning was.

When he arrived outside the tent, the soldiers knelt on one knee with their fists.

"Xiao Bo, the man who just came down from the cliff, was wearing Huichuntang's clothes, and he wanted to see the young master."

Hearing the sound, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Pang Xiao came out from it. Xiao Dong had never seen Pang Xiao before, and there was a nervous look on his face. Pang Xiao looked carefully, but did not know Xiao Dong, and then asked:

"Are you from the Huichuntang section of Datong, or from the Huichuntang in Beijing?"

Xiao Dong's face was a little nervous, and he quickly clasped his fists and said:

"Actually, I am from Beishan Medical College and have been transferred to the Feijiao team. We went to Datong last night and just brought people back. I want to see our young master and discuss the rescue plan."

Pang Xiao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly walked towards Xiao Dong.

"Your young master is undergoing surgery and it will be over soon. Are you saying that you and the prince brought Datong's men?"

Xiao Dong nodded and glanced at the tent. He knew this thing. I thought this old man could not lie, so he quickly said:

"Yes, the general brought a team of people to follow us, and we had already reached the foot of the mountain. In addition, the people brought by the capital could arrive in less than half an hour. I just wanted to ask if this rescue will continue to be nailed from where we came down?"

Pang Xiao paused. He really didn't know the situation above. He looked up and saw that a rope was floating on the cliff on the west side. There seemed to be a few figures above the cliff, but the distance was too far to see who it was.

"Wait a moment, Zhou Heng asked us to build a support platform overnight. Some serious patients need to be transported with flying balls. Others followed you to climb up, but the horses need to find another way!"

As he said that, Pang Xiao turned around and entered the tent. Zhou Heng finished the last suture, wiped the wound, and looked at Zhang Ankang, his eyes red and exhausted.

"Okay, you can deal with the rest. Desheng will gather the injured who have not been dealt with first, and I'll go out and take a look."

Several people said that Zhou Heng pulled off his gloves and loosened his mask and looked at Pang Xiao. Just now, Zhou Heng heard it sincerely and felt relieved. If someone came down, it means that someone could go up. This is the best situation.

"Bo Xiao, let's tie the horses together first. People need to get them up. Where can I ask you to build them? "

Pang Xiao shook his head, "The materials are limited. I tried several times but they were not formed. However, I have asked someone to dig a piece of the cliff. The road is more than twice as wide as before. I think it is OK to drop a flying ball."

Zhou Heng nodded and smiled at Pang Xiao.

"That's good. If we can make the flying ball land, we will send His Highness Ning to the first."

As soon as Zhou Heng finished speaking, a weak voice sounded.

"No need...I don't have to hurry. Let me slow down and you can naturally climb up."

Pang Xiao paused and quickly turned around and rushed to the side of King Ning. He didn't expect that King Ning would wake up. Pang Xiao, who had always been calm, suddenly his eyes turned red.

"The prince finally woke up, just wake up, just wake up!"

Ning Wang patted his arm and smiled at him comfortably. Pang Xiao quickly helped Ning Wang to do it. He lay on his side for a night and was already sore. He had to change his posture to relieve it.

Looking up, Ning Wang nodded.

"You are Zhou Heng?"

Zhou Heng was stunned for a moment and quickly hugged his fists and saluted.

"I've met His Highness Ning."

"Don't be obsessed with the silence of Yunmo. For you to take such risks, I admire you. For the rescue, just follow Zhou Heng's arrangements. As for me, I'll take a little slow down. If I'm really hung up by a flying ball, it will have an impact on the morale of the army."

Zhou Heng nodded. What Ning Wang said was reasonable. He didn't say much, so he quickly clasped his fists and said yes.

"Yes, then Zhou Heng was overseen his duties and arranged personnel to go up first. The injured still needed to fly balls to transport them. This is the safest. After all, I don't want a second casualty.

In addition, during your sleepy night, the water from the river in the valley outside rose by two meters high. Now it is getting closer and closer to this road. I calculated the time and at this rate of rise, it only takes until the evening to flood the road."

King Ning didn't understand what the second casualties in Zhou Heng's mouth meant, but he generally understood the harm caused by the rising river water, which was to get people up as soon as possible, otherwise it would be flooded in the evening.

Furthermore, there are too many variables on the edge of the cliff. If something happens to me, it will not only be a problem for one person, but even Yun Mo will be affected.

"Go, Pang Xiao, go with me. Someone here will take care of me. Please evacuate the person."

Zhou Heng's worried expression did not ease, and he quickly continued:

"Your Highness Ning, what I am talking about is not just a matter of flooding the roads under our feet. Below the valley of Maya Mountain, huge rocks and branches collapsed to block the valley floor. A dammed lake is formed here. This is why we listen to the rolling river water under our feet but keep rising.

If the river water and the falling gravel are increasing, the dam will eventually be washed away. At that time, all the river water and sand in the valley will gush out, which is much more terrifying than ordinary floods.

This is a mudslide, and the surrounding villages and farmland will no longer exist without a single person, so there is another important thing to do now, which is to evacuate the people in the surrounding villages!"

Ning Wang was stunned. These words sounded a little horrible at this time, but according to Zhou Heng’s analysis, it was not unreasonable.

"According to your calculations, at the latest, people must be evacuated from their homes at sunset. How can this short time be achieved? Could it be that you have to let the officers and soldiers attack the people and use tough measures?"

Zhou Heng nodded, not scared by the expression of King Ning, and said as usual:

"This is a solution. If you want to survive, you must use extraordinary means to control one or two disobedient people. You must quickly evacuate collectively and let the prince and the others find the high ground to make arrangements."

King Ning stopped for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons. He had been stationed in Datong for more than ten years. It can be said that the Datong Army has a well-known reputation among the people and has never done anything beyond anything. It seems that it will change today.
