What they didn't know was just as everyone slept peacefully, the sky outside changed again, like it was pierced with countless holes, pouring down endless rain. Overnight, the water level rose sharply.
The water level in the village where Hua Fen and Hua Fang lived rose to waist height within one night, making those villagers in Hua Village who thought they could wait it out completely panic.
Who would have thought that upon waking, they'd find themselves in water, only having time to pack up food, grab some simple belongings, and hurriedly flee to the mountains, lest they face total calamity if they didn't escape soon.
Not only in Shuixia Village where Hua Fen was, but even in the higher terrain and even higher towns around them, the residents began to panic as they started to flood. In the deepest parts, the water reached a child's thigh. Every household was hastily packing up to find higher ground to evacuate.
