Although it was said as soon as possible, before most of the supplies were delivered, Zhang Xinjie could only use the old equipment left over from before.About 10 minutes later, the rescue team finally appeared within Ye Xiu's line of sight. Li Xuan, the leader, stepped forward and exchanged glances with him, and began calling for help.

Ye Xiu took two steps back consciously, and pulled away Sun Xiang who was dazed beside him.

"How is the situation now?" Li Xuan asked.

"The survivors are buried under this." Ye Xiu pointed to the wooden planks covered by the mud in front of him: "I guess, this was originally a wooden house. He hid in the corner when the earthquake happened, and the triangular structure formed by the falling roof left There is no living space, but the space is very small, he dare not waste oxygen, so he has not spoken."

"We communicated by knocking on wooden boards." After a pause, he continued: "The landslide caused the entire structure to be buried. I think the most urgent thing now is to get water and oxygen in."

"Triangular structure..." Li Xuan frowned. The surrounding buildings all collapsed. In addition, the building structure of this small mountain village is not strong. If it is opened rashly, it may cause a second collapse.But time waited for no one, and he didn't have time to think about it too much. The most urgent task was to ensure the safety of the survivors.

Li Xuan directed the others to find the board according to Ye Xiu's directions, and pry it open little by little with an instrument, revealing a small gap to pass in the hoses used to deliver oxygen and water.Ye Xiu helped the whole process, and he was giving psychological guidance to the people inside right now, telling him to face it calmly.

"We will definitely get you out."

His resolute promise and his non-joking attitude gave the other party a lot of confidence. Sun Xiang saw a pair of eyes through the gap, staring outside with hope in them.

Heart palpitations for no reason, he silently joined the team moving the rubble around, working hard, Ye Xiu glanced at him, didn't say anything, just continued to encourage the survivors not to give up.

Li Xuan commanded from the side. After clearing the surrounding area, it was necessary to lift the machine to catch the stones, but now it is difficult to do it due to environmental reasons.Standing next to him, he broke out in a cold sweat. He suppressed his anxiety and used the walkie-talkie to contact Zhang Xinjie at the rescue center.

"Is Ye Xiu here?" Zhang Xinjie asked. Ye Xiu took the walkie-talkie and told him about the situation here: "The survivor's current condition is not bad, but his leg is pinned down. I'm afraid it will take a long time." cause necrosis."

Zhang Xinjie looked at his watch, "It's 46:[-] in the morning, three hours and fourteen minutes behind the expected [-]:[-] noon..." He frowned: "I can't wait anymore, you can find it Where are his feet?"

"It's a bit difficult." Ye Xiu replied truthfully: "The creek has flooded as you said, and the ground is now wet. The survivor told me that half of his body was soaked in the wet mud, and his feet were stuck behind him. In the middle of the rubble."

"If you want to save people, first pry open the pile of rubble."

"Of course I know this. It's just that there are not enough manpower at present. The terrain here is downhill, and the stones are piled up quite seriously. It is really difficult to manually move them without a crane." Ye Xiu said: "But we are already doing it now. It’s just that at the current pace it’s at least another hour.”

"...I can't send more people." Zhang Xinjie frowned even tighter. He took a breath and pushed his glasses, trying to keep himself as calm as possible: "Platoon Leader Huang also found survivors. There are at least three survivors. Four people were crushed together, and a teacher brought a few children, and the situation is very serious now..." Without time to elaborate, Zhang Xinjie quickly sent out orders.

"Get rid of the pile of rubble as quickly as possible and carry out rescue."

Ye Xiu nodded, threw the walkie-talkie to Li Xuan, and joined the stone-moving ranks himself.

After moving a few blocks with others, his eyes suddenly brightened: "Wait..."

At this time, the survivor's legs under pressure could already be seen, but the stone slab was bigger than imagined.Ye Xiu walked around him cautiously a few times and then said decisively.

"pry!"

After saying this, he stepped forward first, knocked on the stone slab with a crowbar, inserted one end of the stick into the gap, and explained: "This stone slab is connected to the wooden board above the survivor's head. If we straighten it up, we will It can drag people out from the middle..." Regardless of the sweat on his forehead, he took a deep breath: "It's just that this stone slab is too heavy without a crane."

"We don't have much time." Ye Xiu emphasized: "The chest of the survivors was crushed, which could easily cause suffocation..."

When he said this, Sun Xiang stepped forward, inserted his crowbar into it, and exerted force.

Everyone was busy for about a quarter of an hour, each of them was exhausted, and finally managed to create a gap that could barely allow one person to shuttle through.Ye Xiu lowered his body and crawled in, grabbed the opponent's leg, and got the person out of the corner.

When he came out, his arm was scratched by the gravel, and the blood flowed profusely. Li Xuan directed the people to carry the blindfolded victim away, and when he turned around, he saw Ye Xiu taking a bandage to bandage his wound.

"Do you want to go back for a break?" Li Xuan asked.

"No, it's just a small cut." Ye Xiu waved his hand: "Let's go."

The last sentence was for Sun Xiang, but the kid didn't realize it all at once. He waited until Ye Xiu walked more than ten meters before he said "Hello!" and quickened his pace to follow.

"Do you know what you are most afraid of in this situation?" Ye Xiu asked him as he walked, "The most afraid of aftershocks."

"I know that." Sun Xiang jumped the topic impatiently: "Aftershocks will change the previous structure, and if the aftershocks are severe, it may even cause a second collapse."

"These are all common sense." Ye Xiu nodded, "So we should speed up the time instead of standing aside."

Sun Xiang heard it this time, cooperating with the other party to scold him around the corner: "I—"

"You really didn't do anything at the time." Ye Xiu said, "You just stood aside, in a daze."

Sun Xiang didn't expect that the other party didn't even look at him, but he could point out his mistakes. He couldn't help being stunned, and wanted to explain angrily, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't utter a word, so he had to bite down. Lips sulk.

Seeing him like this, Ye Xiu didn't say anything more, just said calmly: "Be careful next time."

Along the way, Sun Xiang's face was always in a bad mood. He stared at the back of the one who was walking ahead, with complicated emotions and inexplicably angry.

The two continued to walk forward for a while, and the village had come to the end, and further behind was the hill that had already landslide.Ye Xiu stopped to look at it for a while, and all the gravel had rolled to the foot of the mountain and piled up, leaving only some scattered scattered on the hillside.Overall, the landslide was serious. The fallen trees along the way made the road look a bit difficult, but the location here is much remoter. After walking around the top of the mountain and looking down for a few minutes, Ye Xiu waved his hand: " let's go."

Before he finished speaking, a strong vibration suddenly came from the ground. The gravel on the hillside rolled a few times with the slope, but it smashed towards Sun Xiang who was halfway up the hill.

Sun Xiang leaned back and turned around to hide, but he didn't want to accidentally step on a stone due to the aftershock, sprained his ankle, and fell to the ground with his whole body.He moaned and hadn't recovered yet, when Ye Xiu rushed over and hugged him completely, and the two of them rolled down the hillside together.

During this period, Ye Xiu's injured arm kept rubbing against the ground, and after a while, the blood seeped into the bandage and was dyed bright red. He frowned tightly, and finally couldn't help letting out a muffled groan when his back hit the gravel. Sun Xiang thought He wanted to raise his head but Ye Xiu firmly pressed him down, so he could only shrink back at the foot of the mountain and wait for the aftershock to pass.

After a few minutes, the vibration gradually stopped, and Sun Xiang struggled up from under Ye Xiu.They were all buried in the mud, and this time they moved a little more, causing the sand to blow up all over the sky and blind their eyes.Ye Xiu coughed twice, the wound on his arm had been split open, and now he was in pain, and his body was rolling among the gravel, the wounds were all over the skin, especially the back that was hit, the whole body was hurting. numb.A dull pain that was not sharp spread along the wound bit by bit. When I got up, I accidentally pulled it, and I gasped in pain.

Sun Xiang is relatively better, but he sprained his ankle, and now there is a big swelling on his ankle. Although he can barely walk, it is a bit difficult to talk about running.

Ye Xiu squinted his eyes, and waited for the pain to pass for a while before speaking dryly: "Contact the headquarters..." He said this to Sun Xiang, who passed it to Sun Xiang after using the walkie-talkie before.

Seeing Ye Xiu's half-dead look, Sun Xiang panicked, and hurriedly tried to touch the things in his pockets, but found nothing.

He probably lost it when he rolled down the hill just now. He looked around and wanted to find it, but just after he took a step, his face was distorted by the pain from his ankle. Sun Xiang didn't want Ye Xiu to see it, so he gritted his teeth and walked away took several steps.

Looking at the other party's stiff back, Ye Xiu could guess the general idea. He half sat on the ground and rolled his eyes: "Forget it, don't go looking for it, you might as well leave here if you have the strength..." muttering After saying this, Ye Xiu looked up at Sun Xiang's direction, coughed twice and hooked his fingers: "Hey, come here."

Sun Xiang turned his head reluctantly.

Ye Xiu stretched out his hand to him, and said with a matter of course: "Give me a hand."

Originally, I wanted to say that you wouldn't leave by yourself, but when the words reached Sun Xiang's throat, he suddenly remembered that the other party seemed to be doing this to save him, so his face flushed red, and he stared at the hand hanging in mid-air, and it was not like he didn't answer it. No, the hesitant expression made Ye Xiu a little dumbfounded: "Isn't it true that you hold grudges like this?"

"...You're the one who holds grudges!" Adhering to the usual style of 'against him', Sun Xiang couldn't help but retort, and finally reached out his hand reluctantly, and pulled Ye Xiu up from the ground.

His strikes were not serious, Ye Xiu hissed: "If you are so careful, I will put on shoes for you when you go back."

Sun Xiang could also see that the other party was seriously injured, so he couldn't help but soften his movements. The two walked crookedly for a few steps before he asked, "What do you mean by wearing small shoes?"

The latter gave him a speechless look: "...it's nothing interesting, just keep going."

He said it was a helping hand, but in fact he was stronger than Sun Xiang in terms of mobility, after all his feet were not injured.The two supported each other and walked for a while. The wound on Ye Xiu's arm was still bleeding and stuck to Sun Xiang's clothes. In the end, the other party couldn't stand it anymore. He shouted to stop with an awkward expression, and tore off the bandage. Rewind.

In fact, the wound was not deep, it just opened again because of too much movement, and it has not been able to heal, so it looks a bit scary.

Ye Xiu didn't really care. He cared more about his back injury. The waves of pain made his forehead sweat.Taking a light breath, he squinted at Sun Xiang's side face pretending to be calm, and couldn't help but tease.

"I didn't expect that, you are quite reliable at the critical moment." It was meant to be a compliment, but the habitually raised tone sounded like sarcasm to the ears of others. Sun Xiang glared at him, vindictively Tighten the bandage.

Ye Xiu frowned in pain, and didn't relax his mouth: "Comrade Sun Xiang," his voice was a little hoarse, and he couldn't help coughing twice before continuing: "If you want to deal with the leader like this again, be careful! Go back and sue Han Tuan?"

"...Damn it, if you talk nonsense, believe it or not, I'll throw you here?" Sun Xiang couldn't hold back, and exploded.

"Hey, are you brave enough?" He raised his eyebrows and showed an unbeatable smile: "You can leave me here, remember to bring some cigarettes when you come back."

"..." Unable to speak anymore, Sun Xiang took a deep breath, pulled him up from the ground with a dark face, and walked forward panting.

His foot was injured, and he wasn't walking fast at the moment, and Ye Xiu himself was not much lighter, so it was even more difficult now, cold sweat dripped down drop by drop, and it slipped into his eyes with dry pain.

The sun was already high above nine o'clock in the morning, facing the sun, even the road was a little blurry, the eyes were white, the pain made the brain a little dull, coupled with the exhaustion of the body, the road back seemed even more difficult.

If there were any more aftershocks, the injured would become even more dangerous, and the two who knew this had no choice but to speed up their pace.Stepping on the uneven road one by one, Ye Xiu suddenly called to stop halfway.

"There is someone below!" His tone was a little excited, and the ending sound became even hoarse.Breaking free from Sun Xiang's support, he gritted his teeth and walked to a pile of collapsed buildings.

I can see someone not because of anything else, but because there is a hand sticking out from an inconspicuous corner between the stone crevices.Ye Xiu tried to touch it with his own hand, and the man's five fingers that were hanging down suddenly grabbed his hand tightly, and he struggled a bit, but did not break free.

"Help, save me..." A weak voice with a weeping sound came from under the ruins, and the immature voice showed that the other party was obviously young.

"I will save you." With a hoarse voice, Ye Xiu looked at Sun Xiang with a serious expression: "Go back by yourself now and bring someone here."

Sun Xiang was stunned, and asked almost reflexively, "What about you?"

The latter laughed: "I can't run anymore, I'm here to watch people..." The pain in his back prevented him from making a loud noise, so he hurriedly said: "Go and come back now, or wait until the next aftershock It's troublesome."

Sun Xiang glanced at him, knowing that now was not the time to be entangled, he gritted his teeth and left a sentence, then turned around and limped away.

After Sun Xiang's back was out of sight, Ye Xiu heaved a sigh of relief, his whole body went limp, and he leaned against the edge of the ruins, panting lightly.But the hand that grabbed him used a lot of strength. Ye Xiu wanted to signal the other party to let go first, but what he got was crying for help.

"Relax," he said. "We'll save you, but you need to be emotionally stable... By the way, how old are you? What's your name?"

The one buried inside was a 14-year-old girl named Yanyan. An earthquake happened when her parents went out to farm. If Yanyan, who was doing her homework in the house, reacted quickly and hid under the table, she would have died at this time. Buried alive.

"Don't cry..." Ye Xiu didn't know how to coax children, so after a few symbolic words of persuasion, he felt a little dizzy.The bright sun above his head scorched his dry throat, and he lost consciousness for a short while. Cold sweat poured down, soaking the fabric on his back.

"They will come over, just wait a little longer." Ye Xiu whispered, shaking the other person's palm reassuringly.

"..." Yanyan stopped crying as expected, although there were still sporadic choked sobs, but it was considered to have stabilized her mood.

Ye Xiu breathed a sigh of relief and began to chat with the other party about the daily life, trying to divert her attention in every possible way. After all, it is easy for a person to fall into panic and lose his composure in a claustrophobic environment. Many adults would be afraid of this. This situation, let alone just a child.

In this situation, every minute and every second seemed extremely long. Fortunately, the constant pain did not make Ye Xiu lose consciousness.The dry lip skin has been cracked and bleeding, and after being exposed to the sun for so long, it gradually becomes dehydrated.The mineral water bottle that was issued before was crushed by the rolling on the mountain, and the water was scattered all over the ground. It is a pity to think about it now.

He couldn't help but licked his dry lips, and took another breath to relax himself, because he had to keep talking to Yan Yan who was pressed down below.

It was so tiring to take care of the children. In a trance, Ye Xiu thought of Wang Jiexi, the commander of the second platoon of the recruit company, who was known as a 'magician' because of his treacherous and changeable tactics and fighting skills.

Maybe this title sounds very cool, but to put it bluntly, it's just a 'dad' with children.

Thinking of this, he smiled a bit, even though he was a little weak.

The back hurts a lot.

Shouldn't it be a broken bone?

Ye Xiu grinned as he shifted his sitting posture.

If it is really broken, it will probably be a little troublesome.

After the last Erra game, I broke a few bones... In short, I was lying on the hospital bed for a month.

Life was worse than death in those days, he thought, mainly because he couldn't smoke.

cigarette……

He sighed.

If only there was smoke.

It's a pity that they were all searched away by that unscrupulous old Wei before.
