Volume 6 Chapter 16

Lin Xi looks at the river.

The river is calm and beautiful, with a layer of light mist. There are fishing boats and merchant ships walking on the river, peaceful and quiet.

He Jing and more than ten officials from Yanlai town walked on the river dam. After walking on the river dam, He Jing squatted down and knocked on the dam body with his hands. He felt that the dam body was extremely tight, and his heart was more relieved, and his face was more gloomy and smiling.

He also looked at the clear river and walked to Lin Xi's body not far away.

"Lord Lin, now you should put away your nonsense and go back to Donggang Town?"

He didn't look at Lin Xi who turned around and looked at himself. Facing the river, he uttered this sentence calmly and with a trace of pride.

The semi paralyzed old man, who had been lying on the bamboo chair peacefully, was stiff and wanted to stand up and say something, but Lin Xi patted him and reassured him. Then he said peacefully, "it's about so many good fields and life and death, and how can it be nonsense."

"Mr. Lin, you say there is something wrong with the dam, but it's not good that it rained heavily this night?" Kuang Xiuxian, who was behind He Jing, said angrily, "this dam in Yanlai town is my responsibility, not that of Mr. Lin, are you?"

Lin Xi took a look at the official who was too fat and had no wrinkles. He was like a leather bag and said: "have you checked some local records about this dam? Have you heard the opinions of the people who participated in the dam construction and reinforcement? "

"Lord Lin." Kuang Xiuxian sneered and held out his fat and white hand to guide jiangba. "Any record is not as convincing as on-site investigation. Do you believe an old farmer's words rather than the judgment of so many Yunqin officials?"

Lin Xi frowned slightly and looked at the fat official with red face. He said calmly and seriously: "because he cares more about these fields and the lives of those people than you do, I believe him. And listen to you, I think you don't even know the structure of the dam. Do you think I believe him or you? "

Lin Xi was very rude, and even questioned the real ability of Kuang Xiuxian. At that time, Kuang Xiuxian was so angry that his face turned purple, and he said angrily, "you..."

He Jing waved his hand, stopped Kuang Xiuxian, turned to look at Lin Xi, and said calmly, "the damming dam in Donggang Town is the same as the damming dam here, and there is no problem."

Lin Xi didn't like to look at He Jing's face. He turned his mouth away contemptuously, but his face showed a really happy smile. "Of course it's excellent," he sneered

He Jing looked at the look on Lin Xi's face and saw that Lin Xi showed a smile, but he also smiled and was full of joy, "but the prison you are in charge of is not very good. I burned three cells in the morning, and I heard it's because there are only three people left because of your transfer. Otherwise, more people will be better at least. "

Lin Xi's eyebrows wrinkled, which was really something he could not think of.

"By the way, I heard more interesting news on my way to the dam." Lin Xi's face color change makes He Jing's heart more pleasant, especially the other people behind him, Kuang Xiuxian, and others, show their mocking expression without any disguise.

He Jing took a look at Lin Xi, and after a quiet meal, he said, "Jiang Wenhe, who is still acting as the town governor, went crazy with you all night. He not only used the town's garrison and a large number of manpower, but also used the wood of Zhengwu shipbuilding company. He also misappropriated a batch of silver from the internal affairs department and bought a large number of straw bags and wood."

Lin Xi sinks his face and looks at He Jing indifferently. "It seems that you are not so simple for me to fight for meaning."

"Master Lin is a young and talented man, but you should also understand that misappropriation of treasury money is a felony. Alarmism and perplexity are even more serious crimes. " He Jing squinted quietly and looked at Lin Xi.

The old man on the bamboo chair in front of Lin Xi was stiff again.

He has also been a petty official, so he has different opinions from ordinary villagers. He also knows that among the laws of the cloud and Qin Dynasties, "confusing the people" is a felony second only to rebellion.

"I will explain the reason carefully. I think many of the above officials will not act rashly when there are so many lives involved. " Lin Xi is a cold answer he Jing.

"Human life is really a big deal. The problem now is that both dams are good." He Jing looked at Lin Xi and said with disgust: "the problem now is that the officials in charge of farming and water conservancy of the Ministry of industry think it's OK, and the last two officials think it's OK, but one of your officials in charge of house hunting and prison said it's OK. You said you believe in the old farmer. I'd like to ask you whether the officials above are the judgment of some officials of the information industry department, believe in the reality, or believe in an old farmer who has lost all his teeth? "

Lin Xi frowned in disgust.

He didn't want to have any more nonsense with He Jing. He didn't want to overstep his authority and oppress anyone, nor to get respect and courtesy in front of other officials, but these officials made him find no reason to respect and maintain courtesy. And said so much, the only thing he didn't think about was that the prison would catch fire.

"What are you going to do?"

But at this time, his face is a change, the voice unprecedented cold.

The old man on the bamboo chair in front of him just turned around and looked at it. He was too excited for a moment and made a sound of lotus in his mouth. He grasped the crutch in his hand and seemed to be about to hit somewhere.

On the high ridge in the distance, some villagers are coming down. It seems that they are going back to the original village.

Seeing Lin Xi's disgust turning around, seeing Lin Xi's and Chen Yangzhi's expressions at the moment, He Jing sneered coldly: "maybe someone told them to go back Even if no one says that there is no problem with the dam, do you want them to stay on duty? Do they just eat and drink on that post? "

Without looking at him and the officials behind him, Lin Xi grabbed the old man's lying bamboo chair with both hands, and one of them rushed down the dam with the bamboo chair, running towards gao'gang in the distance in a very angry way.

Previously, Chen Yangzhi and he had carefully checked the condition and water level of each section of the dam, and determined that the dam could collapse at any time in the four or five days before the water level retreated. If he had not the ability to go back to the ten stops, had a certain time to ensure that he could escape, he would not dare to stay on the dam for a long time.

When he began to do these things last night, he naturally thought about all the possible consequences, but in any case, the worst result was just to lose the position he didn't care much about.

Because he is vice president Xia as the top secret of Tianshu level and has the identity of God, he has the courage to easily say "everything is a cloud".

And he knew that even if some senior officials would misunderstand his conduct because of his actions, they would not.

He hates trouble the most. He also wants to see the beautiful scenery calmly on the river, but he can't ignore what happened to him indifferently. Since there are so many people who have paid for it, he can't give up.

Lin Xi runs very fast.

Because the man of practice has stamina and physical strength that ordinary people can't reach, so seeing his amazing long-distance gallop, many people who were originally coming down in Gaobu Gang could not help but slow down or stop.

Among the hundreds of people in front of him, Lin Xi saw people in official clothes.

So his eyes were colder.

"The water level of the river dam is too high. There is still danger of dam break at any time. Don't come down!"

When there are nearly a hundred steps to these people, Lin Xi's firm voice has already sounded.

Looking at this young man who came all the way, many people on the post were suddenly shocked by a kind of inexplicable momentum and spirit, but many people had come down, even if they stopped walking in the field, they still looked back in some embarrassment.

Several Husi officials and students in the crowd were slightly calm, sneering and silent.

Yan Lai town is not without experienced or cautious officials, nor without appreciation or admiration for Lin Xi's officials, but they do not have the right. The most powerful one in Yan Lai town is the Department of town governor He Jing.

On the bamboo chair carried by Albert, the old man Chen Yangzhi was panting in the lotus.

It seems that he was just excited and resentful, so he couldn't adjust his breath.

At this time, however, the bony old man suddenly straightened up.

He had been paralyzed in bed for many years, his legs had shrunk, and now he stood up abruptly. The whole posture of the man was strange and incomprehensible.

"Please listen to the old man!"

"There are three out of 90 old people. How could they come here on a rainy night to lie to you?"

There was a gasp of lotus in his throat, but the high and varied voice blew up in front of him: "please listen to my old man and stay on duty for five days! I... "

No one is unmoved by such a voice. But he just shouted these words, but his voice was suddenly interrupted, unable to make a sound.

Lin Xi's face suddenly changed, reaching out to touch his chest.

The old man's breath was long, but he couldn't make a sound for a while. All the people close to Lin Xi could only hear the old man's hissing voice.

"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. I'm dragging you down..."

All of a sudden, the old man spat out this sentence.

His body is still standing quietly forward, keeping a posture to sit up, the crutch in his hand is stretched forward, it seems that he is unwilling to knock something, but he has no smell to spit out.

So his people became statues in the eyes of all.

Lin Xi's heart fell.

Just when the palm touched the old man's chest, he felt that there was not much heat on the old man's body. The old man had been sick in bed for several years and slowly burned his last life. The time of the night itself was his last light and last cry.

The whole hillock was silent.

Countless people's hearts seem to be hit by a sledgehammer.

Nothing is more powerful than the old man's last request and words in his cracked voice.

Suddenly, many people began to sob.

The heart is full of flesh.

Most of them didn't know the old man named Chen Yangzhi, but the old man didn't know them either, but the old man and Lin Xi came to them in the dark night under the heavy rain, just to let them avoid the danger.

The old man was supposed to die at sun's knees, on a warm bed, but he was in the mud, wrapped in wet clothes, and stopped breathing here.

All the people who walk down the hill drive
