Chapter 273 The Impending Plague
They want to save themselves, and there's nothing wrong with that.
But Lei Minghu noticed at that time that if they continued to dig a little deeper, the entire safe little space would lose balance and then collapse immediately.
Lei Minghu tried to dissuade them many times, but instead of listening, they mobilized others to dig together.
In order to stop them from committing suicide, Lei Minghu could only use his body to resist their attempts to continue digging.
Then his legs were broken by those people.
But even if his leg was broken, those people were no match for Lei Minghu.
He simply picked up the digging tools used by those people and killed the two leaders.
After seeing the dead body, the others started to get scared. They did not dare to provoke Lei Minghu who was on the verge of rage.
After learning about what happened to Lei Minghu down there, Han Ying and Lu Yuan both knew what he was worried about.
There were 12 other people rescued with him.
It is inevitable that someone will ask these 12 people about the two people who died below.
At that time, the blame will definitely be directed at Lei Minghu. How could they know that their lives were saved by Lei Minghu, otherwise they would have been crushed to death before rescue could arrive.
"You should take good care of your injuries. Don't worry, we will tell the people above about this matter in advance. It's okay."
After saying that, Han Ying took out a bottle from her backpack and quietly handed it to Lei Minghu.
Before Lei Minghu had time to see what it was, Han Ying and Lu Yuan left.
Judging from Han Ying's cautious attitude, this must be a good thing.
Lei Minghu quietly took it out and took a look. It was a blood-replenishing pill.
This thing is a valuable commodity now.
In the earthquake, most of the injured suffered external injuries, and blood was flowing out like crazy.
In addition, in the current environment, it is good enough to have enough to eat, and there is no condition to eat well. Therefore, if you want to replenish the lost blood, it may be impossible within a few years.
If she knew that Han Ying had this kind of blood-replenishing pill, I'm afraid she would be restless.
The two walked out of the room and returned to where they were just now.
Then I saw Gu Yuanping asking others about their whereabouts.
"Deputy base commander, we just went to check on Lei Minghu's injuries."
Gu Yuanping knew that Lei Minghu was injured.
"How's his leg?"
Gu Yuanping remembered that when he was rescued, one of his legs was covered in blood.
"The bone is broken, but it's been reconnected. It may take some time to recover."
Han Ying gave a general account of Lei Minghu's situation.
"That's good. I heard that you two haven't eaten since you came in. How is that possible?"
Gu Yuanping placed a bag of freshly-cooked steamed buns and two bags of pickled mustard tubers in front of Han Ying and Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan was fine because he was in charge of the crane and didn't have much contact with the corpses afterwards.
But Han Ying and Tang Yuan stayed by the ruins the whole time.
It can almost be said that most of all the living and dead people sent to her have to pass by her.
Although she had seen many corpses in her previous life, she saw too many today and had no appetite to eat.
"Can you give us a booth? We can eat inside."
Lu Yuan knew that Han Ying had no appetite, and although it was a bit excessive to ask for this now, he still made it.
Gu Yuanping glanced at the food for the dog next to him and found that the entire food bowl had not been touched at all.
Gu Yuanping had also come into contact with military dogs and knew that some dogs would not eat any food other than that given by their owners.
"Come to my house. I'll give you a room. Get some rest first. We can talk about the rest tonight."
His home is also in the military base, on the 8th floor.
The two followed Gu Yuanping up to the 8th floor. After entering, there were two middle-aged women inside. They were steaming buns in the kitchen.
All those steamed buns just now were sent down from here.
All the flour used to make steamed buns was paid by Gu Yuanping himself.
He was worried that the rescue workers were too tired and had no appetite to eat after seeing so many corpses and broken limbs.
At this time, eating some soft steamed buns and pickled mustard tubers might still help you feel hungry.
Without much introduction, Gu Yuanping directly brought the two people and the dog into a room, gave them a bag of food, and then let them have a good rest.
After Gu Yuanping left, Lu Yuan locked the door.
Coming to a strange place, although it is unlikely.
But for safety reasons, Lu Yuan still took out a detector to check if there were any surveillance equipment in the room.
After the detection, he was relieved, "You go in and wash first, I'll stay outside."
Taking a shower first will definitely make you feel more comfortable.
"Okay, I'll come out and replace you later."
Han Ying brought the dog into the space and gave Tangyuan a bath first. Then she started to take a bath herself. After taking a bath, she changed her clothes before coming out.
They knew there was an earthquake, yet they still came out with backpacks. It's normal for them to have spare clothes with them.
After coming out of the space, it was Lu Yuan's turn to go in and take a shower.
Han Ying first packed some food for the dog, then she leaned back in her chair, thinking about today's earthquake.
There are about 160,000 people in the entire base, and it is estimated that no more than 100,000 can survive this earthquake.
The rescue work inside the base was so bad, not to mention the rescue work outside.
With the temperature over 70 degrees and after a whole day of exposure to the scorching sun, the chances of survival for those still buried under the rubble are very low.
It won’t take two days in such high temperatures.
The bodies that were buried under the rubble and not dug out would rot beyond recognition.
By then, not to mention the entire base, even the entire Pengcheng will be hit by an epidemic.
Such a plague cannot be avoided just by where you live.
I must leave Pengcheng, but where should I go after leaving?
Han Ying had no clue because she guessed that this earthquake was probably global, just like the extreme heat and toxic fog.
In other words, other places are probably similar to Pengcheng.
Han Ying calculated the time, then entered the space to pick Lu Yuan out.
The two of them had a simple meal with the steamed buns and pickled mustard tubers that Gu Yuanping brought over.
The main reason was that Han Ying couldn’t eat anything else.
Seeing that Han Ying ate little, Lu Yuan peeled another orange for her.
There is still some time before dark, and I haven't slept for 20 hours. After eating, I felt sleepy.
Worried that someone might knock on the door, the two decided not to sleep in the space.
Han Ying took out a water bed from the space and placed it directly on the ground.
Then take out a small swimming pool, two large ice cubes and a fan.
Use some unwanted cloth to roughly block the gap under the door to prevent the cold air from escaping and being discovered.
After doing all this, the two of them lay down on the water bed and fell asleep.
The alarm was set for 6 hours and it went off around 8pm.
The sun had just set at this time.
After putting the water bed, swimming pool and fan into the space, the two did not leave the room immediately.
Lu Yuan opened the window to let the hot air outside in.
Only after the temperature in the room rose did Han Ying pull up the cloth under the door.
Then the two of them took out flashlights, opened the door and walked out.
