    After such a long continuous snowstorm, I had never seen the sun. Now I could finally see it, and everyone cheered for a while.  Only Gu Yezhou didn't. He looked at the clear, cloudless sky with a solemn expression and was lost in thought.  Ning Sanmei happily ran a few laps on the snowfield, ran back to Gu Yezhou, held his hand, and said happily: "Ms. sir, look at how blue the day is! The sun has come out, and the snow has also bloomed.  Then we can plant crops and we won¡¯t be hungry.¡± Gu Yezhou said slowly, without smiling, ¡°It¡¯s hard to say whether the sun has come out.¡± Ning Sanmei has a pair of beautiful eyes.  Feng Mu looked at him with surprise, "Why?" "It has been snowing for several months, and the snow on the ground is already several feet thick, and the depth is probably more than ten feet deep. This land is like  Covered with a thick blanket of snow, if it all melts, will the river be able to withstand it? And what will happen if the river cannot hold so much snow? " Ning Sanmei was dumbfounded. She was so white.  A look of fear appeared on her pretty face.  Zeng Feixia was also calling and looked at the scorching sun in the sky. When she saw Gu Yezhou and the others talking, she also ran over. She happened to see the look of fear on Ning Sanmei's face and asked what was wrong.  Ning Sanmei said softly: "My husband-in-law said that if all the snow is spent, I'm afraid it will cause a big flood" Zeng Feixia said with a smile: "Don't listen to his nonsense. Snow has always melted slowly. How has it ever happened?  Will it all be spent all at once? As long as it slowly melts, the river can accommodate it, and there won¡¯t be any big floods." When Gu Yezhou traveled through, he heard the prophecy that natural and man-made disasters would follow one after another and eventually be destroyed.  These disasters have been verified one by one before. The flood is the main disaster, so how could it not follow?  You must prepare for a rainy day!  For the next few days, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Although it was not too warm, the snow had begun to slowly melt.  There was a trickle of water on the roadside.  Gu Yezhou was even more anxious and ordered to go on the road all night. The escort leader Zeng didn't know what happened, but since the master had such a request, the escort agency would generally not object.  After traveling all night, they finally arrived at Fuzhou on the Yangtze River.  ??Fuzhou is a large port on the Yangtze River, and it has been in the ice and snow for several months.  The entire Yangtze River has turned into a glacier, and the shipping industry has stopped.  Close to the river, the shipbuilding industry is relatively developed, so Gu Yezhou easily found the largest shipbuilding workshop in the city and asked the workshop to build a large sleigh cart, which is a boat cart with a sled underneath.  The hull is required to be large enough.  Can withstand certain storms.  The deadline is ten days, and the price given is very attractive.  The workshop has stopped working since the rivers froze, and there has been no business. Now that a big business has finally come, they are all very excited, and they don¡¯t ask Gu Yezhou what he is doing with shipbuilding at this time.  Immediately all the shipbuilding workers in Fuzhou were invited to help, and they started working day and night.  Commander Zeng was very surprised to learn that Gu Yezhou wanted to build such a huge sled and boat cart, and asked Gu Yezhou: "Why build such a big boat?" "Just in case." "What in case?  "Ah?" "To prevent floods." "Floods? Where did the floods come from?" "It would be strange if there were no huge floods if all the thick snow in the country melted."  Now, the sun is not hot, and the snow is melting slowly, and it will not melt all at once and cause a big flood." "Everything is possible," Gu Yezhou said solemnly.  "A few years ago, who would have thought that this heavy snow would fall for several months at a time? Such a thick layer of snow would accumulate? Who would have thought that the temperature would suddenly drop sharply and freeze to death so many people? Who would have thought?  How could you imagine that a blizzard could be so big that it could even sweep away the roof? If these things can happen, why won¡¯t a big flood happen?¡± Zeng was stunned for a moment and said, ¡°But you build such a big sled boat?¡±  The car can¡¯t be placed on the official road.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t plan to use it on the official road.¡± ¡°Where will it be used?¡± Gu Yezhou pointed at the vast Yangtze River glacier.  Said: "Up here!" Commander Zeng understood that Gu Yezhou was going to take a sled boat on the glacier.  He clicked his tongue and said, "Can such a big boat go on the glacier?" "It should be no problem," Gu Yezhou said.  "I discussed it with the master of the shipbuilding workshop. I told them that my requirement was that the ship could be towed by horses on the Yangtze River Glacier. So he tried to reduce the weight of the hull as much as possible while ensuring that the hull was strong.  , a certain number of skates as supports below are all made of high-quality steel, which can effectively reduce friction. Besides, the ice blades on the glacier are all made of high-quality steel.?Ice is harder than stone, and we are going all the way down, making it easier to travel.  We also have enough horses, so there should be no problem.  ¡± The money for building the ship was all paid by Gu Yezhou himself. Fortunately, when he sold the grain to Zi Xi, Zi Xi gave him double the price, so it was more than enough to build this big ship and sled.  It took ten days, which was considered very fast, because almost all the shipbuilding workshops in the city were used to work overtime. It was finally completed in ten days. During these ten days, the sky remained cloudless, the temperature continued to rise, and there was snow.  As it melts further, streams formed by snow are already flowing in the low-lying areas. Counting the days, it is already April and it is still freezing and snowy. The spring plowing season has already passed, and it seems that this year's harvest will be in vain again.  , the farmers who were counting on God to eat were all dejected, thinking in their minds how to survive this famine disaster. The sled and boat carts had been built, and Gu Yezhou asked the escorts to load all their supplies onto the big ship.  All the horses are gathered in the front, and they are divided into several groups to pull. Behind each group, there is a small sleigh sitting on a handlebar and waving a long whip to drive the horses forward. It is a little difficult to start the sled.  After the boat started, it seemed very relaxed. In places where the gap was relatively large, the sled boat could slide down by itself without the horses having to expend a lot of effort. However, just now.  After walking for several days, the terrible disaster finally came without hesitation. That night, Gu Yezhou and the others camped on the Yangtze River glacier, letting Ma also take a rest because they all lived in a cabin where the cold wind could not enter.  , living in a carriage is much more comfortable than before. The bodyguards and the policemen were all fast asleep, but Gu Yezhou couldn't sleep. He was always worried about when a new disaster would come and what kind of disaster it would be.  It was very shallow, so when the originally dim window became colorful, he woke up. When he saw the changes in color on the window clearly, he sat up suddenly, rushed to the door, and opened the door latch.  When I opened the door, I was shocked to see that the colorful light bands that foreshadowed the coming disaster appeared in the night sky again, like dragons with crystal colors, changing and flying in the sky!  A trembling little hand held his arm, and Ning Sanmei's trembling voice came to her ears: "Is there going to be another natural disaster?  "    "should be!  "Gu Yezhou took Ning Sanmei into his arms and kissed her gently on the forehead, "Don't worry, we are already prepared, it will be fine.  " Ning Sanmei clung to him tightly. After experiencing so many disasters, she was still frightened by the fear of disasters. Although her husband was by her side and she felt at ease, she still couldn't help but tremble. Soon, the guard was  The escort's screams woke up the others. They all came out and stared blankly at the night sky, with a look of fear on their faces. The escort leader Zeng walked to Gu Yezhou. If he encounters trouble, he must first follow him.  The boss discussed it. This was the rule of the escort agency. Now Gu Yezhou's identity was no longer the escort of the escort agency, but the purchaser of the county government. They were the relationship between the boss and the escort. "Look at this," the escort leader said in a low voice.  I'm afraid there will be a new disaster starting tomorrow. Will it be the extreme cold or snowstorm like last time, or hail?  " These are the ones he is most worried about, because they all come suddenly and destroy everything in an instant. Gu Yezhou didn't know what kind of disaster it would be, and said in a deep voice: "Let's just be careful. Now  At first, more people were sent to serve as guards to prevent disasters. The rest of the people hid in the cabin and kept the fire burning.  "    "good!  "Zeng Escort immediately complied with the order and sent two more escorts, one at the front and rear of the ship to guard, and the other to patrol the sides of the ship. There was no movement that night, and the terrifying and strange colored light was also there.  After it disappeared at dawn, Captain Zeng ordered to continue setting off. They were horrified to find that this time the sun was rising in the east, but it was as hot as the summer heat!  Shan Yi still felt that the heat was unstoppable. Gu Yezhou's heart sank to the bottom. In such a hot weather, the thick snow on the ground would soon turn into a fatal flood. When they were building a ship in Fuzhou, because of the bodyguards and others!  None of them knew how to drive a boat, so Gu Yezhou paid a lot of money to hire more than a dozen boatmen to help steer the boat. These days the boat was used as a sled on the glacier. Naturally, these boatmen did not play any role. The bodyguards secretly laughed at Gu Yezhou.  This scholar spent money randomly and hired a bunch of useless people. But now, the role of these people is immediately apparent.nbsp; Gu Yezhou called the boatman and asked where the water in this area was relatively stable and could survive the danger of melting ice.  Modern knowledge made Gu Yezhou know that it is very dangerous to melt ice in rivers, lakes and seas. Huge broken ice blocks float on the river, like pieces of rocks. Not only will they smash the ship because of hitting it, but they will also cause damage to the ship.  The huge gravity and water impact force directly squeezed the hull, causing the wooden hull to shatter. At that time, the ship was destroyed and everyone died.  Therefore, we must avoid the melting period and wait for the ice water to turn into river water.
