Truck driver Tian Da was hit on the arm by falling rocks when he ran into the cave, and stayed in the cave with two injured people.
It's more spacious and has better air circulation.
Su Man stayed alone at the entrance of the cave, which was completely blocked by fallen rocks and yellow mud, with only enough space for her to lean sideways.
From time to time, she listened to the noise outside and cheered up the people inside.
Several people stayed in the darkness for too long, and they didn't know how much time had passed, from hope at the beginning to despair.
Tian Da was the first to collapse, grabbing his head and wailing.
"I shouldn't have come here. I was hoping to earn more money for my son's milk powder. Now, I'm buried here. My son won't know where to find me in the future."
"I can't stand it anymore, just strangle me to death..."
Zhang Tianlin, who was next to Tian Da, coughed and fumbled to hold down his shoulders to prevent him from hitting the wall.
"Comrade Tian, don't be afraid, the people outside are trying to save us!"
"Let's talk, time will pass quickly."
Su Man groped her way back at this moment and changed the subject in a relaxed tone.
"Comrade Tian, can you tell me about your son? How old is he?"
When talking about his big fat boy, Tian Da felt a little calmer.
"It's only been a month, and they're not just one, but a pair. They're both fat!"
"Their mother's milk supply isn't enough, so they have to drink powdered milk. A can of powdered milk lasts only three days, so I can earn enough money to feed them four or five months of milk powder with just one trip."
"Don't mention it. I've lost a lot of weight just raising those two guys."
Su Man smiled and fumbled to open the medicine box.
"Even if you're tired, you should have something to look forward to, right? By the time you get back from this trip, the two guys will probably be able to turn things around. By then, you won't have a moment of peace."
"Later on, you'll have to learn to walk and talk. Oh, you'll have a lot to do."
These words successfully pulled Tian Da out of his despair and he calmed down.
"Yes! I still have to teach my son to call me dad. I can't die here..."
Su Man took out the remaining half bag of glucose and squeezed some of it on the injured man who had fallen on the ground and injured his head.
Then, he handed it to Zhang Tianlin.
"Comrade Zhang, have a drink first!"
Zhang Tianlin didn't drink it and pushed it back.
"Comrade Su, you drink. I can still hold on."
Su Man knew he was lying. His leg was broken and he had lost a lot of blood. He had been trapped for several days. How could he not be thirsty?
She pulled Zhang Tianlin's hand and stuffed the glucose into his hand.
"Comrade Zhang, I'm a doctor. Listen to me. The wounded are given priority. Drink something. Your body will hold up."
Zhang Tianlin was also afraid that he would really die here and cause trouble to Su Man, so he took the glucose, drank two small sips, and then handed it to Tian Da.
Although Tian Da's throat was so dry that it was about to smoke, he forced himself to endure it and only drank two sips before handing it to Su Man.
"Comrade Su, you drink too. You are our pillar now..."
Su Man couldn't help but laugh: "That's right, we women hold up half the sky."
At the urging of the two, Su Man drank two sips of glucose.
Then, the remaining glucose was put back.
They don’t know how long they will be trapped, and the little glucose they have left is the only thing that can sustain their lives.
In order to conserve their energy, the three of them didn't dare to talk much.
After drinking the glucose, he continued to sleep, but Su Man couldn't fall asleep.
I tried to feel around, trying to see if I could find a way to survive.
Suddenly, I touched a pile of dirt in the corner, and my fingertips touched a soft pool of something.
The stench of decay hit her in the face, and her hair stood on end, and she took a few steps back.
Zhang Tianlin, who heard the noise, realized something and spoke weakly.
"What's wrong, Comrade Su?"
"Nothing, I think I touched a dead mouse."
Su Man's voice was very calm, and no clues could be heard.
Fortunately, Zhang Tianlin was too weak and fell asleep again without asking any more questions.
Su Man calmed herself down and returned to the brick kiln.
There was no sound at all, just deathly silence.
She lied to them, she buried it so deep that no sound could be heard.
But if they don't say this, they won't be able to hold on.
I don’t know how long it took, but in the darkness, I heard Zhang Tianlin’s faint sigh.
"Comrade Su, are we unable to get out?"
This middle-aged comrade has sharper observation skills than Tian Da.
I have been pretending to be ignorant even though I know the truth, but no matter how strong a person is, he will be buried for so many days.
Coupled with the invasion of injuries, there will be times when you want to give up.
Before he could say anything else, Su Man's weak but firm voice came.
"No, my man will definitely come to save me..."
She never doubted it...
————————
It was already dark outside. Zhao Weimin was sleeping soundly at home when he heard a series of rumbling sounds on the street outside.
It seemed like something heavy had run over him, and he was so disturbed by the noise that he got up and put on his clothes.
"It's so late, what are you doing?"
Zhao Huaguang ran in from outside, sweating and looking panicked.
"Dad, it's bad. That bastard Lin Ye brought a lot of excavators and trucks to the brick factory."
"Looking at the posture, they are going to dig the place upside down!"
"What?"
Zhao Weimin was furious and ran out of the house.
I thought that bastard had given up, but he ended up getting a big one?
When he ran to the brick factory, more than ten excavators had already lined up and started digging.
Trucks were transporting the excavated yellow mud to areas that were difficult to dig with excavators.
