“I, I…”
Zhao Weimin broke out in a cold sweat on his back and stammered, not knowing what to say.
Seeing him like this, the two of them guessed something.
Without bothering to hold him accountable, he quickly stepped forward.
"Go find Mayor Zhang, no matter if he lives or dies."
With a greeting, the two of them went to mobilize people.
Zhao Weimin gritted his teeth and, not wanting to be suspected, he picked up a shovel and got busy.
I prayed to all my ancestors in my heart, hoping that Mayor Zhang would be safe.
Also, Liang Yanyan’s body must not be dug out.
Otherwise, his life would be over.
A night passed and dawn broke.
The morning light spread across the mountains and fell to the ground. Lin Ye numbly repeated the action of digging and lifting the soil.
I couldn't feel the pain in my body at all, but the pain in my heart was spreading bit by bit at this moment.
It’s been seven days, seven days...
He didn't dare to think about how a living person could survive underground for seven days?
After working non-stop all night, both people and machines need to be repaired.
While lubricating the excavator, Yu Dong quickly invited everyone to have something to eat.
Lin Ziqiang and Tang Guifen were carried away to rest because they were physically exhausted.
Only Lin Ye never slept or rested, not even drinking water.
Yu Dong invited him to eat, but he just shook his head.
Zheng Biaozi tried to persuade and scold Lin Ye, but Lin Ye was like a piece of wood and refused to listen.
He really couldn't bear to see his only good brother lose his life, so he begged Dai Qinghe for a long time.
"Dean, it's not going to work if we keep going like this!"
"Can you give me some sleeping pills or something so I can help Brother Ye get some rest?"
Dai Qinghe looked at Lin Ye with a frown on his face.
"He won't even drink water, how can he take sleeping pills?"
"Well, I'll go get a tranquilizer..."
There is really no other way. Comrade Su is gone, and I can't let Lin Ye exhaust himself to death.
Soon, Dai Qinghe came back.
There was no one around and it was very quiet.
Zheng Biaozi took him and walked forward quickly, ready to cooperate with him to divert Lin Ye's attention so that he could inject the sedative.
Suddenly, Lin Ye stopped what he was doing.
"Brother Ye?"
He called out tentatively, and saw Lin Ye raise his hand.
"Be quiet."
Then, Lin Ye ran towards the mountain like crazy.
He listened to the ground for a while, then dug down frantically with a shovel in hand.
"Here, there's movement, dig quickly..."
Zheng Biaozi heard nothing and wondered if Lin Ye was hallucinating.
Suddenly, a hole as big as a bowl collapsed on the hillside.
Inside, a bloody hand was hitting a brick with a stone.
Once, once, and again.
Bang, bang, bang.
It's like a monotonous heartbeat, plain but inspiring enough.
Zheng Biaozi screamed and called for help.
"Come quickly, the people here are still alive..."
When the people who were resting at the back heard this, they all rushed over here as if they had been injected with chicken blood.
When Lin Ye saw Su Man's hand, he threw away the shovel, knelt on the ground, and used his hands to dig out the yellow mud at the entrance bit by bit.
Su Man, who had been trapped in the darkness for too long, was dazzled by the sudden light, which hurt her eyes. She closed her eyes weakly.
"Find some cloth, cover their eyes, and keep them alive!"
"Um!"
Lin Ye responded softly, fearing that his voice would be too loud and scare Su Man.
If you see people, you can no longer use the excavator.
Everyone worked with their bare hands, and with strength in numbers, they quickly removed all the yellow mud and gravel from the brick kiln entrance.
Dai Qinghe led his men into the brick kiln and carried the wounded out.
After a brief inspection, he trembled and cried out.
"He's still alive, hurry to the hospital..."
Although the three people have fallen into a coma, their physical condition is not too bad.
After seeing the three people off, Dai Qinghe prepared to go forward and see Su Man.
Lin Ye squatted down and slowly picked up the person.
He was very careful, as if he was holding his most precious treasure, afraid that it would break if he used even a little force.
Su Man's eyes were covered by Lin Ye's cloth and she could not see anything.
But she could smell the fragrance of earth in the air and the scent of mountain grass in the distance.
There is also the aroma of someone's cooking, accompanied by a gentle breeze.
Everything told her that she was still alive.
The taut string finally relaxed at this moment, followed by a deep sleepiness.
During these seven days, she had hardly slept or eaten anything, and her body had long since given up.
It was her trust in Lin Ye that allowed her to persevere until now.
Su Man slowly leaned on Lin Ye's shoulder and curled her lips weakly.
"Lin Ye, I knew you would come."
“So, I’ve been waiting!”
Lin Ye held Su Man in his arms, taking every step very steadily.
With every breath, I felt grateful for surviving the disaster.
"Well, I won't let you down."
"Lin Ye, are you standing up?"
Su Man felt something dully, her head felt dizzy, and her fingertips seemed to be getting hot.
She seems to have a fever!
"Well, I didn't listen to you. Go back and teach me a lesson."
“You’re so tall!”
Su Man murmured, the high fever made her confused.
"It's so high, it's not convenient to kiss!"
Lin Ye looked down at her and kissed her forehead.
"I can hold you and kiss you, or I can squat and let you kiss me."
His lips were chapped and no longer as soft as before.
Su Man raised her hand and touched her forehead, then groped to touch his lips.
“So hard…”
