The roaring sound of the water was deafening, and the black river was passing by. The water level gauge deep in the river was shaken weakly by the impact, and it would be washed away at any time. The river had already overflowed 26 meters of the water level gauge.
Along both sides of the river, the low-lying areas were gradually swamped by the overflowing river water.
This is the Negro River, the largest tributary of the North Amazon River in South America, and is less than 1 kilometer away from the monitoring point of the San Gabriel da da Cachoeira city.
"25 meters, 25 meters, and 20 meters yesterday, how could it rise so fast ..."
At a pier on the river bank, Bagbo, an expert from the local water conservancy bureau, stared blankly at the raging flood, and several students beside him were also very confused.
What makes them do not understand is that the river is not dark. The Negro River is one of the most famous black rivers in the world. Its name "RioNegro" means black river. This is due to the humus at the edge of the swamp along the coast and the low level of silt, resulting in this spectacle.
They have long been accustomed to this natural black, but today it seems to have a different kind of weirdness, like the deep black of industrial pollution.
But even more strange is the water level.
The Amazon River produces various types of floods every year, especially in this rainy summer. The Negro River can reach an average water level of 27.76m on average and the highest in history is 30.48m. However, since May of this year, the upstream and the rainfall here are ordinary, which is simply not enough to trigger such a high water level.
Even yesterday, perhaps even before this morning, the water level was only around 23 meters.
"Teacher, will this be related to the recent supernatural power disaster?" Student Matus questioned, and a disaster broke out in Rio de Janeiro in their country a week ago. It was one of the "ten disaster-hit cities in the world", and strange things happen suddenly here , Will it ...
"It's quite possible that we have to report this situation quickly." Bagbo immediately called out with his mobile phone, but the signal here was never good, and there was no response at all. He murmured: "Nearby everyone It was evacuated ... the water level is still rising and it will become a disaster zone ... "
The water level is rising at a rate that is almost visible to the naked eye. This time, it rose from 25.3 to 25.7 meters.
The dark river flowed over the stone embankment of the pier and hit their feet.
"Teacher, let's leave here first." Another student Inacio said repeatedly. The dock has become very dangerous.
"Go." Bagbo nodded, anxiously following the students to the vehicle parked on the bank of the river.
They are water conservancy and face the floods of the Amazon all the year round. They know very well how small humans are once the floods break out.
Eleven years ago, there was a major flood in the highest water level in history, flooding the surrounding areas and leaving the residents homeless.
This place is the northernmost city in the Brazilian Amazon. Although the population is not large, it is more than 40,000, and there are a lot of tourists all year round. Most of these more than 40,000 local populations are indigenous people from surrounding tribes, and some even live primitive lives; here are also biological reserves, with a large number of rare animals and plants.
Therefore, they are not only nervous about people's safety, but also nervous about the cultural heritage and various things that have not been destroyed by modern society.
However, once the water level exceeds the height of the river bank, the flood will be unstoppable.
When the flood comes, all of this can be wiped out in a few days, or even a day.
The Negro River is the main navigation channel in the north, and is located on the border of several countries in South America. A large number of various ships come and go every day. The sudden rise in the water level made these ships unprepared. As they walked towards the vehicle, a multi-layered ship sailed on the river in the distance.
Under normal circumstances, the water level of 25 meters is high, but if the water flow is stable, the boat will not be affected too much.
But now the water in the river is like a turbulent storm. The ship was swaying in the storm, and half of the hull was tipping away.
"No, no ..." Bagbo witnessed the scene and exclaimed anxiously, as if to remind the merchant ship to avoid doom.
But the turbulent black river was going to devour everything. There seemed to be a big hand that yanked the merchant ship from the bottom of the river. Suddenly, the whole ship was dumped in the sway, and irreparably fell to the surface. Its overturning sound was submerged by the sound of water, and everything happened as if it were silent.
Also submerged were the shouts, calls for help, and screams of people on the ship ...
Bagbo and Matus saw that the figure of the crew dropped from the deck and the figure of the tourist dropped from the cabin window. They were immediately caught by the river without knowing where to go, not just one or two people, but connected Constant figure, can not splash a little splash.
Before and after five minutes, the entire ship sank completely, and the Heihe Pentium still remained.
Those of them standing on the shore can't do anything at all.
"The supernatural power is definitely the supernatural power ..." Bagbo said so, holding the students in shock and sadness and continuing to walk back. Some of Matus, Inacio, and others were silent, and some murmured to God, and the normal ship could not sink so quickly.
Recently, God or God has been called more. Many people say that the "Ten Egyptian Disasters" that occurred recently are miracles. Because people have committed too many sins and do not know how to repent, the Lord has sent the Egyptian Ten Disasters to punish the world. .
Bagbo also believed in God and was concerned about current events, of course knowing what happened in Rio de Janeiro and other disaster cities.
He didn't agree with this kind of argument before ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Now that he has witnessed such a disaster, he doesn't agree with it at all.
How could God love the world ...
"Ah." Bagbo's head flashed with pain. The headache came suddenly and intensified quickly, flushing him like a flood.
At the time of dizziness, there seems to be a behemoth occupying it ... is it a pyramid?
Because of current events, Bagbo has been in contact with the pyramid on the Internet and the media for a few days. When I think about it, the light and shadow that appear in my brain are more clear, that is, the pyramid ... But when he wants to see it clearly, it disappears.
Bagbo shook his head, and quickly reported the disaster, so that people could deal with it in time, and the flood could not destroy it. He loved it.
They were already running, but the rushing water behind them was getting faster and closer.
The roaring sound of water seemed to tell them that all resistance was in vain, and the black river would eventually flood here and beyond.
