Chapter 102 Rescue
Gu Murun suddenly remembered something and took out a few chocolates and compressed biscuits from her backpack and handed them to Li Qihan and Lu Ming respectively. But neither of them took them.
"Keep it for yourself. You don't know how many days you'll be here." Li Qi Han didn't take it. He had received special training and could hold on no matter what. But Gu Muruan couldn't do that. Even though she had suffered a lot in her childhood, she still had to protect her things in this unknown situation.
"I still have some in my box, you can take it for emergency!" Gu Muran saw Li Qihan coming from that direction and sat down to relax for a while, fearing that he would faint due to hypoglycemia.
If he knew what Gu Muruan was thinking, Li Qihan would retort: I was just tired.
The two men couldn't resist Gu Muruan, so they put a few pieces of chocolate and compressed biscuits into their pockets.
The rescue was still going on. Li Qihan and his team had three hours of rest time. He reminded Gu Muruan a few words, asking her to carry her backpack well, not to act alone, not to take off her coat easily during the rest, and to keep warm.
Gu Muruan felt that Li Qihan had nothing to do with what her second brother and others said about being aloof and indifferent.
At night, Gu Muran took some of the things out of the suitcase and put them in her backpack. There was also a thin blanket in the suitcase, so she wrapped herself in it and slept with the others in the tent.
No one slept well that night. Rescue teams and medical teams kept arriving, and trapped people kept being rescued. Gu Muran felt as if many people were swaying in front of her.
After resting for a few hours, it was dawn. Gu Muran simply washed up to refresh herself. In the morning, someone had built a fire nearby and cooked a big pot of hot porridge.
Like everyone else, Gu Muran took a bowl of porridge, warmed herself in front of the fire, and drank it with a piece of compressed biscuit.
The roads in the village have been washed away, so we can only walk.
The local commanding leaders discussed with the personnel sent by the army and the hospital and planned to form a mixed team, with each team having two local people as guides, as well as army soldiers, firefighters and medical staff.
Gu Muruan happened to be assigned to the same team as Li Qihan and the others, and their mission was to search and rescue at the other end of the village.
Li Qihan talked to the two local guides, got a general understanding of the layout of the village, packed his tools, and led the team forward.
The road ahead was difficult to walk on. Those at the back of the team could only follow the footprints left by those in front, but the overall progress was not fast.
Fortunately, after walking for a while, they finally saw many trapped families. According to their recollections, the places where these families lived were some distance away from the mountain.
However, when they saw the trees falling down and the boulders rolling down, they were still panicked. It was definitely too late to escape. After all, how could human power match the speed of the objects rolling down the mountain?
They hurriedly brought out the ladder at home and climbed to the roof as quickly as possible. At this moment, everyone prayed that their house could withstand the impact of this sudden disaster.
Fortunately, their house was not destroyed by the raging mudslide. However, while the main structure of the house was saved, a large amount of mud and water inevitably poured into the house, making the entire room covered with thick mud. In desperation, the residents could only temporarily take shelter on the roof, anxiously awaiting the arrival of outside rescue forces.
Several people in the team praised their actions. The firefighters took out a soft ladder and set it up for them to come down slowly. They took out water and biscuits for them to cushion themselves first, and then sent several people to escort them out.
These are the families at the entrance of the village. Apart from being hungry and cold for almost a whole day, fortunately, no one was seriously injured.
But the scene was different further in. The people living inside were close to the mountain and had no time to hide. They were soon crushed under the collapsed houses.
