Jiang Ning looked at the floating object that was getting closer and closer. When it got closer, he pushed it with a stick and found that it was a floating corpse.
At first I was shocked and nauseated, but after seeing it many times I got used to it. When I came out, there were several bodies floating in the community.
Jiang Ning calculated the time. One minute had passed, but the rope in his hand still did not move.
Two minutes...
Three minutes...
Four minutes...
Feeling increasingly uneasy, Jiang Ning pulled the rope twice, but there was no response.
It’s amazing for an average person to stay in the water for more than a minute. Even if 1801 is good at diving, four minutes is too long, right?
She had a bad feeling and was about to pull the rope when the water surface made a loud noise.
1801 surfaced, "I checked several stores, all the doors were pried open, and the insides were emptied."
Empty? Who is so awesome!
Lu Yu was disappointed and said, "I can't find the liquid bottle, so I can't cook anything even if I have it."
They were already fast enough, but they didn't expect to be overtaken by others. It seems that they are too young and lack life experience.
Jiang Ning glanced at 1801. These snack shops were submerged in water the day after the typhoon. Even if some shops were relocated, it was impossible for all of them to be pried open. The flood was turbid and the water was fast-flowing. It was impossible to succeed without a diving mask and good swimming skills.
Unless, these stores were pried open when the natural disaster first struck.
She had a vague guess, "Now I can only try my luck at the liquefaction site and hope that the stores haven't all been emptied."
Now that I've come out, there's no reason to go back empty-handed. I can only try my luck at the liquefaction station.
Jiang Ning took out his phone from a waterproof bag, found an offline map and pointed it out to the two of them. "It's probably around this place. There seems to be a big banyan tree at the door."
It is about six or seven kilometers away from Jinrong Community, which is not particularly far, but the place is a bit remote.
After figuring out the location, the three of them drove a speedboat to the liquefaction station.
The suburbs were full of bungalows, but now they are all submerged in water and look particularly empty.
On the way, they met firefighters who were rescuing trapped people. When they saw the speedboat, they shouted with a loudspeaker, wanting to requisition it to transfer the trapped people.
It’s a flood that happens only once in a thousand years, and there aren’t enough rescue tools.
Huo Yishen ignored them and the three of them rushed through the flood.
The city has become a vast ocean, and it is impossible to tell east from west and south from north. Jiang Ning observed with a telescope, "Looking forward and to the right, there is something green in the water. That should be the banyan tree."
I slowed down and drove closer, and it turned out to be a banyan leaf.
That tall banyan tree now has only the top of the tree left green.
They got into the water and tied the speedboat to the banyan tree. Jiang Ning pointed in a general direction, and Huo Yishen put on a diving mask and dived into the water.
After more than two minutes, Huo Yishen floated to the surface and said, "We found it, but the liquefied gas station has rolling doors and sliding iron doors, so it's not easy to pry them open."
As he said that, he asked Jiang Ning to take out the folding crowbar from his bag.
Lu Yu, "..."
Why is he the only one who doesn’t have professional equipment?
Jiang Ning had equipment in his space, but the team couldn't take it out. When he saw that 1801's bag contained a simple diving mask, rope, and tying rope, he tied the rope and put on the mask without hesitation, "I'll go down to help. You keep an eye on the surroundings. If there's anything unusual, pull the rope immediately."
Lu Yu nodded, "Be careful."
The flood water was icy cold. Jiang Ning dived into the water and swam towards the liquefaction station with the help of the waterproof lamp, while taking out the pliers.
Seeing a faint light in the distance, she swam over quickly.
Huo Yi stood deep in the water and tried hard to lift the rolling shutter door upwards, but the resistance of the water was too great.
Jiang Ning leaned over and reached out to help lift it up.
The four eyes met and the strength was directed toward one side.
The rolling shutter door slowly moved upwards, revealing the sliding iron door inside.
Huo Yishen took the pliers from her hand, cut the chain on the door, and then worked together to pull the door open.
It was very dark inside. Just as he was about to swim in, a dark shadow quickly came towards Jiang Ning.
Huo Yishen was quick to pull, and the black shadow passed over her head and swam quickly above the water.
I swiped the flashlight over there and saw from its shape that it was a liquefied gas bottle.
Not just one, but many liquid bottles floated out from inside one after another, scrambling to float up.
Jiang Ning subconsciously wanted to grab it, but then he remembered that it should be an empty bottle.
The density of a filled liquefied gas bottle is not low, so it is not easy to float up.
She pulled out a high-powered waterproof flashlight from her pocket, looked around in the darkness, and vaguely saw several bottles placed in the corner.
I swam over and reached out to pick it up, but I couldn't lift it at all.
Huo Yishen was very strong. He picked up the liquid gas bottle and walked out of the house, pulling hard on the rope tied to his body.
Lu Yu grabbed the rope and pulled it upwards, and the two quickly swam out of the water.
Jiang Ning climbed onto the speedboat and worked together to carry the heavy liquefied gas bottle up. It seemed that the boss did not have time to move the rest.
"You guys take them up there, and I'll bring the rest up."
After taking a breath and resting, Huo Yishen dived into the water again.
The water pressure was too great, and Jiang Ning felt uncomfortable because of holding his breath. He sat on the speedboat and gasped for breath.
Lu Yu looked around vigilantly with a telescope, and suddenly said nervously: "Aning, someone is coming."
Jiang Ning stood up and saw a speedboat approaching quickly in the rain.
I can’t see clearly, but there are at least four or five people.
Lu Yu pulled the rope hard, and Jiang Ning looked for a weapon to defend himself.
Huo Yishen surfaced from the water, dragging the liquefied gas tank in his hand.
When he came up, the speedboat had already approached. Six burly men were holding sharp steel pipes in their hands. "We have contracted this liquefied gas station. If you know better, hand over what you have salvaged."
"Brother, we don't have diving masks."
The other one laughed wildly, "That's easy. Let them salvage them all and hand them over to us."
"That's right. Leave the speedboat and other supplies behind and we'll consider letting you go."
There is a Azure Dragon on the left and a White Tiger on the right, and all of them have big tattoos on their arms. You can tell at a glance that they are members of gangs. Especially when society loses order, it has become a world of gangsters.
They didn't care about the three people's thoughts at all, as if it was already in their pocket.
Lu Yu looked panicked, staring at them while holding the crowbar tightly.
Jiang Ning reached into his pocket and said, "Okay, come and get it."
"Wait little sister, the brothers will be here soon."
A few people laughed obscenely and slowly approached in a speedboat, looking at Jiang Ning like hungry wolves.
When they were less than ten feet away, Jiang Ning was about to take out the thing, but Huo Yishen's hands were faster, and he "banged" twice...
