Unexpectedly, Shen Nian had just asked the yamen runner how his family was doing.
The yamen runner also began to wipe away tears, "My Lord, my mother has passed away, and my wife and child are injured. I don't know if they can survive."
The yamen runner thought of the miserable state of his family and could no longer hold back his tears. He squatted on the ground with his head in his hands and began to cry.
His mother was killed by a falling beam while trying to protect her son.
My wife and daughter were also injured and now looked half-dead.
Even if he wanted to call a doctor to treat them, he couldn't find one.
The sad cries of the yamen runners made the people present feel even more heavy-hearted.
It was daybreak now, and the streets were filled with collapsed houses, and the broken brick walls looked even more desolate!
It is probably the same situation in Sangluo City now. The spiritual spring water that Xia Tian gave him has been used up, and he doesn't know where the doctor is. Now the only thing that can save his life is her spiritual spring water.
"Mu Lin, take a few guards back and ask Madam to bring some more potions." Now is not the time to hide anything, he can only ask Xia Tian for help.
"Yes, master, let's go now." Mu Lin took five guards back to the mansion to find Xia Tian.
Shen Nian and others continued to rescue people.
The yamen runner didn't care about crying at this moment, and followed Shen Nian to help.
The governor personally dug up bricks to save people, so what's the point of him crying?
Mu Lin quickly returned to the Governor's Mansion. Xia Tian was feeding the injured people spiritual spring water and directing Fu Gui and others to bandage and save them.
"Madam, the master asked me to get you some more potions!" Mu Lin felt bad when he saw that his wife was still helping despite her big belly.
This lady has been following her master, but she hasn't enjoyed much happiness. Instead, she has experienced many life and death situations!
"Where is your master?" Xia Tian asked with wide eyes when he saw Mu Lin.
"The master is still rescuing people on the street." Mu Lin made way to let Xia Tian come over.
"Let's go, I'll get it for you." Xia Tian now knew that the situation outside was definitely not optimistic.
Shen Nian had been out of the house since the earthquake began and hadn’t returned yet. He had probably been rescuing people for half the night.
I don’t know how Lord Cao, Lord Li, and Lord Wang are doing?
If we only rely on Chen Nian and a few others to rescue people, how long will it take?
Xia Tian returned to the yard and went into the relatively good remaining room. She took out some water bags from the space. She didn't have many water bags left, so she simply took out a bucket, filled it with water, and handed it to Mu Lin.
He whispered again!
"This potion is the one I gave you to drink. When you save people, you can mix half of it with water. This way you can save more people.
And if you are tired, you can drink a sip or two to replenish your energy."
Xia Tian gave Mu Lin another instruction, then took out several hundred pills, wrapped them in oil paper, and handed them to him. "If the injury is minor, take two of these pills. The potion is mainly for those who are seriously injured."
"I understand!" Mu Lin wrote it down carefully before preparing to leave with the potion.
"Wait." Xia Tian stopped them.
She went back into the house and brought out some clean cotton cloths. "Use these to bandage the wound."
She looked at the front and back lapels of Mu Lin and the guards' clothes, which were obviously shorter, and knew that they must have been torn to bandage the wound.
Although there is not much cotton cloth, it can be used as an emergency measure.
Otherwise, when Shen Nian and the others come back later, all my clothes will be gone.
"Thank you, ma'am." Mu Lin bowed deeply before turning and leaving.
It was already daybreak. Everyone had been busy all night and must be tired and hungry. Xia Tian directed people to move the pots and other things out of the kitchen, which had not completely collapsed, and set them up in the yard to cook porridge.
Let everyone take a bite first before we get back to work.
There is still a lot of work for them to do next.
Fortunately, although the house collapsed, the food and other things could still be used.
The wells in the mansion were not affected at all.
It's just that there's dirt in the water, so it's not as clear anymore. But it's not a big deal. You can use it after letting it sit for a while.
Chen Nian saw that Mu Lin brought a lot of things with him, so he quickly distributed the things to each guard and asked them to take one portion each and go to rescue people separately.
This time he also discovered that not many people died directly, most of them were injured.
As long as they can be rescued and they are still breathing, we must do our best to save them.
Linzhou can’t afford to have any more large-scale deaths!
After the things were distributed, Shen Nian felt a little sorry for the yamen runner who had been following them to rescue people, so he told Mu Feng, "Go to his house first."
Shen Nian pointed at the yamen runner!
The yamen runner understood immediately that the governor was going to rescue his family.
He knelt on the ground with joy and shouted, "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
Shen Nian waved his hand to let him get up, and quickly took Mu Feng over.
The yamen runner got up excitedly and ran to his house.
The people around were originally very sad and desperate, but after hearing the shout from the yamen runner, they realized that the person who had just saved their family was actually an adult.
The people around gathered around, and someone recognized Shen Nian.
"This is the Governor! Oh my god, the one who saved us just now was actually the Governor!"
Someone among the onlookers shouted excitedly.
The onlookers were stunned, and after looking carefully, they all recognized him.
"Yes, it's really the Governor!"
"The Governor has been saving people here all this time?"
"This is really the Governor! He just saved my family."
The people talked about it in unison.
I guess they didn't expect that there were still high-ranking officials saving them.
"Thank you, Governor!" Some people knelt down and shouted loudly!
Then all the people knelt down, "Thank you, Governor!"
Chen Nian was confused by the sudden situation and didn't know how to respond, especially since he was unkempt and dirty.
After a moment of hesitation, he calmly asked the people to get up, "Fellow villagers, get up quickly, we need to save people now."
When the people rose up, new problems began to arise.
"Governor, our houses have collapsed. What should we do?" Some people began to worry about the future.
I have lost my place to live, my food has been buried, and my family members are either injured or dead. I really don’t know how I will live in the future.
"Everyone, do your best to save people first. Dig out what you can use and eat. The government will definitely find a way to deal with this matter and will not ignore you."
Shen Nian didn't know what the final result would be at this moment, but he would definitely try his best.
When the people heard the governor say that he would not ignore them, they all believed him. After all, a governor who could come out in the middle of the night to personally dig up bricks to save people was trustworthy.
Shen Nian persuaded the people to retreat and asked those who were able to try to save people.
Seeing that the time was almost up, he decided to go back to the governor's office first.
There must be a set of rules for this matter!
And we must hurry to report the news to the capital!
