As a day and a night passed, layer upon layer of yellow mud was dug out, but as the rain washed it away, it was covered again layer upon layer.
Everyone was so tired that they couldn't even lift their hands, but there was no progress at all.
In order to ensure safety, Zhang Fuhua had to let some of the workers evacuate first.
As soon as people left, the mountain collapsed again.
The brick factory was covered with a new layer of yellow mud, even if Zhang Fuhua didn't want to admit it.
I also know that in such a situation, even if the people below are not crushed to death, they will die from suffocation.
"Deputy Director Zhang, I'm afraid the person is gone. Let's go!"
"That's right. We can't risk so many of us just for one person. Who doesn't have elderly parents and young children to take care of?"
"The body wasn't even complete after being dug out, Doctor Su. What a pity..."
Everyone felt sorry for it, but they had put in so much effort. The heavy rain kept coming, and who knew when the next landslide would occur?
If things go wrong, they will all be buried underneath, and no one wants to take the risk.
Zhang Fuhua looked at the man who kept digging in the middle. His palms were covered in blood. The blood was washed away by the rain, and the faint pink color spread to her feet.
But he didn't say a word. Others took a break, but he was like a tireless machine.
From yesterday till now, it has not stopped for a moment.
Unfortunately, Comrade Su might...
Zhang Fuhua's throat was choked with sobs. She couldn't take risks with the workers in the factory, so she could only wave her hand and signal everyone to go back first.
He didn't leave, but kept helping with a hoe.
Until her husband came and persuaded her that her body could not bear it anymore.
He took what she had in her hand and continued digging before persuading her to go back and rest.
Another day and night passed, and the rain finally stopped in the morning.
But it did not help the excavation work, as there were many stones in the mudslide that slid down from the top of the mountain.
After the collapse, it was impossible to dig it out with hoes and shovels.
This invisibly increased the difficulty. Lin Changsheng and his team from Lin Jiawan worked for two consecutive days and had reached their physical limit.
If you really can't work anymore, just take a break on the side.
Although no one gave up, they knew in their hearts that the chances of the people below surviving were almost zero.
Although she wanted to hide it from Tang Guifen, she still received the news.
A trembling one-eyed old woman came over with a hoe.
Without saying anything, he silently followed Lin Ye and started digging.
He kept muttering to himself while digging.
"Good boy, hold on, I'll make you something delicious."
"Did you like the spicy beef last time? I'll make you two pounds this time."
"There are more crayfish in the river now. Tie Niu caught a bucket of them the day before yesterday. I'll make you some spicy crayfish."
"The loaches in the fields are getting fat. Use them to stew fried eggs. The taste is so delicious that you can swallow it with your tongue."
"I have many more specialties that you haven't tried yet! I'll make them for you from now on."
Click, click
It wasn't raining, but water drops were still falling.
Tang Guifen gritted her teeth and trembled all over.
"I told you not to be a doctor. Just stay home and feed your baby until he's fat and plump."
"You didn't listen and insisted on coming here."
"Does it hurt now? Does it hurt a lot, my Mannie."
"Don't be afraid, grandma is here to save you! You must hold on, you still have to be grandma's granddaughter-in-law for the rest of your life!"
"Grandma only recognizes you as her granddaughter-in-law, do you hear me..."
The old man's heart-wrenching cries echoed through the air, and Lin Changsheng and the others could no longer bear it.
Wang Daneng threw away the refreshing pipe, spat into his palm, and stood up again regardless of his cracked palm.
"Damn it, I just don't believe it's so unfair that bad people live for ten thousand years, but good people don't live long?"
"Bah, I don't believe it. Doctor Su must be fine..."
Everyone regained their enthusiasm and started working again.
Waves of people fell down due to exhaustion, and new ones took their place.
Even Dai Qinghe and Yao Yao from Lianzhen Hospital joined the excavation team. They couldn't believe that the excellent and kind-hearted Dr. Su was gone just like that!
After four o'clock, progress was slow and the air was filled with a foul stench of decay.
Zhao Weimin, as the mayor, finally showed up.
However, he was not there to help with the digging, but to stop everyone.
"I understand your grief over the loss of Comrade Su, but so many days have passed."
"No one could survive in such harsh conditions. I propose that Comrade Su be laid to rest here."
"We'll erect a monument for her later..."
Before he could finish his words, a hoe flew over.
If Zhao Huaguang hadn't pulled him aside, he would have been hit.
Lin Ziqiang's eyes were red and he glared at him with gritted teeth.
"My sister-in-law is not dead. If you continue to talk nonsense, I will kill you first."
Zhao Huaguang stood in front of Zhao Weimin with his hands on his hips and said unhappily.
"You little brat, you can't tell the difference between good and bad, right? My dad is afraid that you'll tire yourself out, so I'll bury you down here. With just a hoe, how long will it take you to dig?"
Lin Ziqiang stepped forward and pushed Zhao Huaguang away, then bent down, picked up the hoe and shook it.
"You care about us? Take care of your own rotten ass first!"
"you……"
Zhao Huaguang was so angry that his face turned red, and he felt ashamed, so he pulled Zhao Weimin.
"Dad, don't worry about them. I'd just ask the police to arrest them."
Zhao Weimin looked at Lin Ye deeply and spoke in a deep voice.
"Comrade Lin, this brick factory is someone else's private land. If you lead a disturbance, I have the right to have the police arrest you..."
