Upon hearing this, Ji Huangquan nodded and immediately followed Gu Guoquan. Only after arriving did he realize that the place was a place of immortality because it was located on a downhill slope and there was nowhere around to secure the rope.
At the beginning of the rescue, people could tie themselves to the surrounding trees, but that wasn't possible here. So in this situation, they could only rely on swimming or simply choose to be pulled by others.
However, this kind of pulling is still very dangerous. Under such circumstances, we can only find a few people with good physical strength, and Ji Huangquan just happens to be the person with the best physical strength.
When Ji Huangquan looked at the distance, he quickly understood what to do and immediately began to cooperate with Gu Guoquan. Some women and elderly people were pulling on the rope, and some men were trying to go into the water, but they were stopped.
Under these circumstances, Ji Huangquan followed Gu Guoquan into the water. The current was very strong, and even Ji Huangquan and Gu Guoquan were almost swept away several times. In order to avoid being swept away, they could only stabilize their bodies.
Those on the shore looked down at Ji Huangquan and the others, and everyone was tense. "Sir, you must be careful," someone said worriedly.
Although the child inside was his own, people in this era, having recently experienced the ghost incident, valued the lives of soldiers very much. Many people in this era considered the militia members as family.
At this moment, Ji Huangquan was naturally very worried about Gu Guoquan. He reached down and quickly looked at the children on the treetop. The children were trembling. "Just you few, the rest of you?"
"The teachers brought us up and were swept away, as were some other students." The dam was completely submerged, and most people didn't even have time to react. At that point, it was impossible for the teachers and others to lead people to the nearby hillside.
In this situation, amidst the floodwaters, they desperately helped each other to the top of the tree. Fortunately, the children could all swim and knew how to climb trees to steal bird eggs, so they were able to get up quickly.
Even so, the time it took for the teacher to carry people up was so long that the teacher was swept away by the flood before he could get up.
The teacher saved the child with her own life. When Ji Huangquan heard this, he felt complicated. Most people in this era believe in dedicating their lives to others, and these teachers have done just that.
"Younger children, sit in the basin. If you're strong enough, swim with me." The treetops will soon be submerged, and there won't be another chance.
“I can do it, I’m a great swimmer,” said one of the older children. Ji Huangquan nodded, patted the child’s head, and then used his body to tie several children together, a dangerous act.
However, we had no choice but to do it this way. It only took five minutes to get here, and it would take even longer to send people back. By the time we went back and forth, the water would have flooded the treetops, so we had no other option.
At this moment, Gu Guoquan nodded and started to send the children up. While swimming, Ji Huangquan and Gu Guoquan each carried a child on their backs, and there were several little ones swimming along with them. If they couldn't swim anymore, they would be dragged across while holding onto the logs.
Those on the shore arrived and, seeing this, began to pull with all their might. The floodwaters rushed towards the bodies of several people. Gu Guoquan and Ji Huangquan connected several children, with the children in the middle and Ji Huangquan positioned just above the current, making the pulling even more intense.
Her body ached slightly as she clutched her waist, but this was the only way she could get the children back. While swimming, someone suddenly called out, "Big brother, be careful."
The little girl on his back suddenly spoke, and Ji Huangquan was slightly taken aback. The next second, he saw a piece of wood coming straight at him. "Dive down," Ji Huangquan said. When he heard this, the children's expressions changed, but they still followed him down. Ji Huangquan quickly grabbed the wood to block it.
At this moment, Gu Guoquan also hurriedly protected the children. When the people on the shore saw this, their expressions immediately changed. Ji Huangquan's head was hit, and in his dazed state, Ji Huangquan seemed to see something.
The rain poured down, and a woman stood in the lake. Her eyes reddened as she looked at the resentment emanating from the other side, and she tried to approach, "Ji Huangquan..."
Suddenly, Gu Guoquan's voice brought Ji Huangquan back to his senses. "Are you alright? We need to get up quickly, hang in there." At this point, it wasn't a matter of a few people coming down to try, but rather that the current was too strong. If more people came down, they wouldn't be able to carry anyone across; they would just be a burden.
"I'm fine." Blood dripped from Ji Huangquan's head as he shook his head, no longer thinking about what had just happened. When the group finally made it ashore, the children's parents were holding their children.
When they discovered that many children were missing, many people looked at the water and burst into tears. Ji Huangquan covered his head.
"Medic, come quickly and bandage me up." Gu Guoquan was also in a lot of pain, the rope was pinching his body, and it wasn't just Ji Huangquan who was hit by that piece of wood, he was in pretty much the same pain as him.
The medics immediately came up and began bandaging and treating the person. Ji Huangquan couldn't go back into the water at this point, as he was too exhausted. Gu Guoquan was in a similar situation, and they both rested nearby.
"Ji Huangquan, what's wrong? Are you feeling any better?" someone asked, looking at Ji Huangquan. Ji Huangquan shook his head, indicating that he was fine. But was what he had just seen a hallucination? It shouldn't be a hallucination. If it was a hallucination, why did he feel such discomfort in his chest?
Ji Huangquan felt as if something was pressing down on his heart, and he was in excruciating pain. Who was that woman? Although he couldn't make out the figure clearly, Ji Huangquan knew that there was one person who could be Feng Biluo.
No… Ji Huangquan told himself it was impossible. But he couldn’t help but wonder if it was true, Feng Biluo had died in her previous life and been rescued. Thinking of this, Ji Huangquan lowered his head.
At this moment, Ji Huangquan would never let Li Chunhua and Lu Zhaodi go. Thinking of the disgusting things those people had done, Ji Huangquan felt murderous intent in his heart.
Ji Huangquan is not a good person, nor could he be. He is not qualified to be a saint or a saint in the quick transmigration game. He usually appears gentle, but he does not easily get angry. It is because he is too peaceful that he has allowed those people to persecute his wife and daughters so much.
Ji Huangquan, looking at the floodwaters not far away, said, "Alright." He then got up and joined the rescue efforts. Gu Guoquan, seeing this, joined in without saying a word.
This rescue operation lasted three days and three nights, involving search and rescue efforts as well as emergency repairs. During these three days of heavy rain, it can be said that no one in the rescue team had a break. Everyone was under immense pressure, doing their utmost to save lives from the flood.
