Chapter 401: Digging the Road at Night



The two of them were silent on the rest of the way.

Just because Xiao Zhao was worried that Jiang Qingyue couldn't handle it, he kept asking her to sleep for a while in the car.

"It will probably take several hours to get there, sister-in-law, you should get some sleep first so that you will have enough energy when the time comes."

Jiang Qingyue knew that what he said made sense.

There was still a tough battle to fight, so he forced himself to close his eyes.

Even if you can't sleep, at least you can close your eyes and rest for a while.

I dozed off and on like this, then woke up and dozed off again.

It was not until the evening that we arrived at Dingyuan Township.

After everyone arrived in the town and met up with the people who came to meet them, the group of cars drove towards the scene of the incident.

After the typhoon, all the clouds in the sky turned into rain and fell down.

Now only half of the sky was burned red, and the usually beautiful scenery now looked terrifying.

The road ahead was very difficult to travel on, and the car would get stuck in the mud from time to time.

From time to time, we had to pull each other out and keep moving forward.

This delayed the entire journey, and the journey that was supposed to take about 20 minutes took more than an hour.

By the time everyone arrived at the scene, it was already completely dark.

Jiang Qingyue endured it for the entire afternoon, and tried hard not to think of the worst.

When I saw the scene of the accident with my own eyes, I couldn't help but feel grief from my chest.

I saw that the original mountain road had been completely covered by the collapsed mountain.

Not to mention people, even if the car was covered, it would be impossible to see it.

No wonder Xiao Zhao said he found nothing at the scene.

Jiang Qingyue ran forward with light steps, and Xiao Zhao followed closely behind.

When we arrived at the landslide site, we saw that the people who had come out with Zhou Zhengting were digging the soil.

In addition to the soldiers of the army, there were also many men who had been rescued from the mountain village.

Anyone who has the strength is digging desperately.

But the area of ​​the landslide was too large and it could not be completely dug out in a short time.

Jiang Qingyue's heart gradually grew cold, and for the first time she felt what it meant to be powerless.

Xiao Zhao also hurriedly asked about the situation at the scene, and quickly ordered the people who came to support to go forward and take over the digging.

Most of the people who were replaced knew Jiang Qingyue.

We rarely see each other, but I always call her sister-in-law with a smile.

Everyone knows that she has a very good relationship with Zhou Zhengting, and everyone is envious of them in private.

When they saw her coming, everyone couldn't help crying.

I don’t know why, but when we were digging before, everyone just wanted to dig out the road as quickly as possible.

When they saw their sister-in-law, everyone seemed to remember that their leader Zhou might really be gone.

I also remembered what they were digging for.

I couldn't help crying.

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. We shouldn't have let Captain Zhou go at that time."

"Yes, originally Captain Zhou didn't have to go, but he said he had to go back and see it with his own eyes before he could feel at ease."

Everyone cried and apologized to Jiang Qingyue.

Jiang Qingyue also felt very upset.

On the one hand, there's no real way to blame anyone.

On the other hand, when these people cried, the hope that Jiang Qingyue still had in her heart was immediately extinguished.

I tried hard not to fall down.

He only said, "Everyone stop crying, let's find the person first."

Xiao Zhao also shed tears and asked everyone to eat and rest quickly.

I will have to go up and replace the people who are digging the road later.

Xiao Zhao brought enough supplies this time.

Everyone quickly set up tents on the flat ground and set up pots to cook.

Those who work work, and those who rest rest.

Everyone has a very clear division of labor.

When the meal was ready, Jiang Qingyue couldn't even swallow her saliva.

He just stared blankly in the direction of the landslide, trying to find something.

When Xiao Zhao saw this, he felt very sorry and kept persuading her to eat something.

Jiang Qingyue shook her head like a zombie, "Xiao Zhao, stop trying to persuade me. I can't eat now. Don't worry about me either. Just go and do what you need to do."

Xiao Zhao had no choice but to nod his head. "Sister-in-law, you can sleep in the tent for a while. It looks like we'll have to dig this road for at least one more night. I'll call you tomorrow morning when it's done."

Jiang Qingyue was very worried when she saw him.

But I also feel that if I continue like this, I will only delay others.

He nodded and went into his tent.

As soon as I sat down, I heard some noise outside.

Jiang Qingyue quickly opened the curtain and ran out, "Did you find anything?"

Xiao Zhao hurriedly tried to stop her.

Jiang Qingyue ran over quickly.

The soil that had been dug out earlier was stained with blood.

This discovery made everyone cry again.

When it seemed that a landslide had occurred, Captain Zhou and his men happened to pass by here.

Everyone was silent.

Jiang Qingyue couldn't bear it any longer and sat down on the ground, staring at the pool of blood in a daze.

Time stood still for a few minutes.

Suddenly, I heard the person in front shout, "We found a watch."

Xiao Zhao took it quickly and his hands froze immediately.

Jiang Qingyue also quickly stood up to take a look, and saw that the watch was the one Zhou Zhengting was wearing before he left.

She bought it in Guangzhou and gave it to him.

Jiang Qingyue felt everything in front of her eyes was blurry, and she quickly took the watch and rubbed it in her palm.

He quickly wiped the dirt off with his sleeve.

He returned to the tent without saying a word.

After a while, Xiao Zhao felt worried and went in to look for her again.

"Sister-in-law, I guess this watch must have been dropped by Captain Zhou accidentally."

Jiang Qingyue shook her head woodenly. "He always wears this watch on his wrist and cherishes it very much. He will not take it off unless there are special circumstances."
