Upon hearing this, Lao Zhang and several other villagers quickened their pace, carefully placing the last potato and mushroom into the sack before tying it up tightly.
They exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with both reluctance to leave this land and anticipation for the unknown future.
"We need to hurry, don't keep everyone waiting too long," Old Zhang urged, picking up the sack first and walking out of the cave.
Several other villagers followed closely behind, carrying their own sacks and luggage, and hurriedly walked out of the hot spring cave.
At this time, the villagers were already carrying large and small bags and moving their belongings out. Because the area was under more than 30 meters of snow, it was quite difficult to move them onto the snow.
But the villagers' faces beamed with anticipation for their new life, filling them with boundless energy.
Considering the steepness of the exit passage and the fact that the steps had become extremely hard and slippery due to the extreme cold, the militia soldiers specially laid a layer of anti-slip mats on the steps and equipped them with enough flashlights and lighting equipment to ensure that the villagers could safely carry their luggage and smoothly board the sled trucks.

After Old Zhang and several other villagers emerged from the cave, they immediately joined the hauling effort. Although they were not young, at this crucial moment, each of them displayed unprecedented enthusiasm and perseverance.
"Everyone be careful, the road is slippery, don't fall," a militiaman reminded them with concern.
The villagers helped each other and carefully stepped onto the non-slip mats to make their way up.
Their faces beamed with anticipation and longing for a new life, a strength that made them forget their fatigue and the cold.
As the villagers gradually emerged from the snow-covered village that had once sheltered them, the sled trucks were already parked not far away.

Lin Lele stood beside the trucks, carefully checking the loading of each vehicle to ensure that no villager or their belongings were left behind.
Her face was filled with pride and joy, after all, it was a great thing to be able to let the villagers live in the Tianyu base.
