Mo Qing took a group of elite guards and some disabled people who had escaped and left first. Those who stayed behind were healthy people with good abilities.
Mo Qing promised everyone a generous reward: five work points and two kilograms of grain for every person rescued. Li Ke saw the reactions of those people and was obviously very satisfied with the reward.
No one rested at night. Everyone knew that it might rain later, so they went in to rescue people at night. As long as the car was full of people, they would take the people away quickly to the base.
After what happened, no one wants to stay in this place anymore.
When it was almost dawn, the rain stopped falling, but there were still several collapsed areas where some people were buried underground, and judging from the crying and cries for help from below, there must be quite a few people.
The rain was obviously getting heavier, and it was very uncomfortable when it hit people. Moreover, many people did not have rain gear. The rain was also corrosive, so the rescue work had to be stopped.
Saving lives is important, but Mo Qing also said that you should not sacrifice yourself. At critical moments, your own life and health should always come first.
Li Ke and his group of people hid in a house where they could shelter from the rain and suspended the rescue. In the distance, they could still hear cries and calls for help coming from underground. If the rain was too heavy, it would only become more and more dangerous for them down there.
A group of people looked at Yu with sad faces. They wanted to save people, but the current situation really made it difficult for them.
One of the men who looked stronger looked at the rain outside and said, "We have to think of a way. It seems like the rain will not stop. If we continue to wait, the people below will die. Even if they are not buried by the wet soil, they may drown. And this is acid rain."
After a moment of silence, a voice said hesitantly, "I have an idea..."
Everyone looked towards the voice. It was a young man. Under everyone's gaze, he said nervously, "Maybe we can look for other underground entrances around them, then break through them and rescue them."
There were different voices objecting: "No, it's raining so hard now and the ground is unstable. What if we are buried underneath too?"
"I heard there are still bombs that haven't exploded. If there is another explosion, we will die..."
But some people thought it was feasible: "It's finally a solution. There must be a lot of people trapped down there. If we don't find a solution quickly, the situation will only get more and more difficult."
The stronger man spoke again at this time: "I agree to find the entrance for rescue. Anyone who is willing to follow me, please raise your hand."
There were a total of thirty-six people in their team, and there were more than a hundred rescued people behind them. At this time, twenty team members raised their hands, and more than ten of the rescued people also raised their hands.
Li Ke took a look and raised his hand as well. Everyone elected the strong man as the team leader. They found some tools to keep out the rain and searched for the entrance based on the information provided by the indigenous people.
Finally, following the sound, he dug up a place that was not severely pressed by the wall tiles and found a closer entrance. There were seven or eight people hiding below, and they didn't seem to be injured.
Seven or eight people were arranged to build a simple awning above the entrance, and the rest jumped down from the entrance, walking and shouting softly all the way. They found a few more people. Some were injured, but their conditions did not seem serious.
We found the nearest place according to the direction, but we called out several times but got no response. An aboriginal said, "There's a storage room across the street. There may be no one inside. We have to pass this room to get closer to the rescue site."
After hearing this, everyone knocked on the wall and the surroundings. Only after they felt it was relatively stable did they start digging with tools, but they were not brave enough to move too big.
Finally, I opened up a passage that was big enough for one person, and then I found that the storage room was also half collapsed. There was a bunch of cheap dog food in the storage room. I didn't need to look at the packaging to know that it had been expired for a long time.
When the people who came in saw the dog food, many of them were delighted. Someone said, "These things need to be moved out and taken away. People can eat them too."
No one disagreed with this, so five more people were assigned to move the dog food to a safe passage to prevent it from being soaked by the rain.
Standing here, they could already vaguely hear some sounds. Half of this basement had collapsed, and they didn't have many options for digging a passage.
Li Ke and his team tried to shout to the trapped people to determine their location, but the voices on the other end were excited and chaotic, and the statements were inconsistent.
Eventually they chose a relatively stable place to start digging. This time the work of breaking through the wall would be much longer. When they dug to the other side, there was also a collapsed area. They could only dig and clean at the same time, and they had to shout to the people inside to be careful.
The sound became clearer and clearer, and the people on the opposite side also began to dig carefully in the right direction. When the first hole was dug through, many people inside cried with excitement.
This time the entrance to the cave was not very big, less than half a person's height, and there was severe collapse below, making it difficult to dig further. This exit was enough for those people to slowly climb out.
Li Ke and another person were guarding the cave entrance and helping to pull people out. The first people to be sent to the cave entrance were the injured and women and children. There were quite a few children, only two, who looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.
When the last woman was pulled out, she thanked Li Ke and did not leave immediately. Instead, she stood at the entrance of the cave waiting.
When Li Ke saw the woman, he was slightly stunned. The woman had white hair, a thin figure, some scars on her face and hands, and her expression seemed very humble.
If she hadn't thanked Li Ke, Li Ke wouldn't have paid much attention to her. The change in this woman was really huge, but Li Ke still recognized her. She was Chen Ziyue.
The next person to come out of the cave was a man. Chen Ziyue hurriedly pulled him and helped him up. Li Ke looked closely and saw that Chen Niansheng had also turned into a hunchbacked old man with almost completely white hair.
The brother and sister snuggled together as they walked into the passage. Li Ke was still helping to pull people in at the entrance of the cave, but the corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
Chen Niansheng and Chen Ziyue also came out. If nothing unexpected happens, they will also be sent to Qingyuan Base. If they meet Li Zhenzhen and her daughter, she will have something exciting to watch.
Although he no longer had any emotional attachment to this group of people, Li Ke was still curious and excited when he thought about what might happen.
After rescuing the people, Li Ke returned to the ground and found a place to rest for a few hours.
The rain showed no sign of stopping, so after discussing it, everyone decided to evacuate at daybreak and move to a safe place when the water level rose.
While waiting to set off, Li Ke found the team leader and proposed to register the people who were rescued.
The team leader thought there was nothing wrong with Li Ke’s suggestion, so he asked who had brought paper and pen. No one responded, and no one really brought these things.
Seeing that the team leader was in a dilemma, Li Ke directly said that he had it. Knowing that Li Ke was Young Master Mo Cheng's savior and had worked very hard in the rescue work, the members of this team were very polite to him.
The main reason was that they saw Li Ke's strength. Not only was he very strong, but he also seemed to never get tired. You could tell at a glance that he was very powerful, and no one would be so stupid as to offend him.
The team leader arranged three people to go with Li Ke to register those people. Their team rescued nearly three hundred people.
Their car did not have enough seats, so they arranged for two people to go out on motorcycles to help and call for taxis. When daybreak came, they would bring a car and everyone could get in and leave.
Li Ke and another person registered along the way and walked up to Chen Ziyue and his sister. Both of them said their real names and had been in this Guanzhen area for nearly three years.
According to them, they came here when they were fleeing, and after entering, they could not leave, so they were locked up here and forced to do hard labor.
Just by looking at their hands, feet and faces, you can tell that their lives here are quite hard.
In order to improve efficiency, several people only registered their approximate names, ages, physical conditions and expertise.
Li Ke only asked two more questions: where did they live before? Why did they leave?
Chen Niansheng sat on the ground and said weakly, "We were previously in a shelter in City N. There was a new leader there, who said they couldn't support so many people. Right after the flood, they asked us to come out and make a living on our own. If we didn't want to starve to death, we had no choice but to leave."
Li Ke was curious about what happened in City N, but he still had to register other people and didn't want to attract the attention of the Chen siblings, so he didn't ask any more questions.
