"Grandpa Tao, my brothers, Shishi, Chou Chou and I came here."
Old Tao's heart skipped a beat, "Where are they?"
The child is too young to have strayed from the group; it looks like he climbed out of the water. Could it be that the others...?
As the soldiers returned one after another, I saw no familiar faces and felt increasingly panicked.
"Grandpa Tao, after they rescued people, they went up the mountain to find food because they were worried that everyone would go hungry."
Thank goodness, thank goodness, God bless us.
"Little Master, come quickly and help us! We've found a lot of sweet potatoes."
Shishi ran over carrying two large bunches of fresh red vine seedlings, with big, plump sweet potatoes hanging under the seedlings.

“There are so many! The mountain is full of sweet potatoes.” Shishi pointed up the mountain.
The female officer appeared very happy, but her heart was in turmoil.
I just heard from the doctor that some people who were swept ashore by the water were clearly dead, but they woke up after attempts to resuscitate them failed. There were quite a few like that, which is just too unbelievable.
Her team wasn't the first to arrive, but even the closest ones would need some time to get there.
The person who was swept away by the water was already considered dead by everyone.
