Tong Yao remained silent as she listened to the conversation between the three of them, but felt much more at ease in her heart. Regardless of whether Gu Hongwei would take care of her or not, it was always good to have one more acquaintance.

The bus drove on the highway for more than three hours, during which no one spoke. However, as they got closer and closer to Qingcheng, drizzle began to fall outside, and the road conditions became worse and worse. It was visible to the naked eye on both sides of the road.

Many houses collapsed. Everyone looked at the scenery outside the window and began to discuss the situation at the epicenter of the Qingcheng earthquake.

At this time, Zhou Shi'an, who was driving, said: "In about half an hour, we will get off the car and walk. We have to go over three hills to Pier Town. According to news reports, the situation there is the most critical, so we will go directly

School rescue in dock town, everyone should pay attention to your own safety when rescuing people. I brought you here and I will take you back intact."

As we all know, there are many underage children in schools. They have poor escape ability. Once they are trapped under a house, if they are not rescued in time, the consequences will be disastrous.

The teams that previously set out to rescue are currently in the city and have not been able to reach Pier Town. It’s not that they don’t want to go, but there are insufficient manpower and Pier Town is relatively remote. The rescue team can only rescue the people in front of them first. The city is full of buildings.

, if there is no timely rescue, the people who are trapped below may be in danger.

Niu Gang took the lead in responding, and the others followed suit. The high-pitched and resonant voice made people excited.

In everyone's worried mood, the car finally stopped. The road ahead was impassable due to the earthquake. There were many rescue convoys parked on the roadside. Those people had already participated in the rescue, and only the car was left here.

Zhou Shi'an asked everyone to eat some dry food brought from home and prepare to set off. Gu Hongwei came out in a hurry and didn't bring anything with him. Tong Yao gave him two large cakes and a bottle of soda. Gu Hongwei was not polite, took them and ate them.

Everyone rested for about four or five minutes. Zhou Shi'an gave an order and everyone immediately followed his footsteps and walked over the roadside hill. Gu Hongwei took the backpack from Tong Yao. Although he didn't speak along the way, he always paid attention to Tong Yao's situation.

.

The original planned destination was the school in the dock town, but before everyone reached the destination, they were shocked by the tragic scene in front of them. Countless houses collapsed in various villages, and the survivors were digging for their relatives in the ruins with their bare hands. Except for those who could not

In addition to those who took action, even the injured participated in the rescue.

When everyone saw this scene, they had no time to worry too much and directly joined the crowd. Whenever they heard someone shouting for help, everyone worked together to dig with their bare hands.

Tong Yao noticed that in an open space, several people covered in mud and blood were lying, including women, children, and old people. The drizzle of rain was pattering on their faces, but they did not respond. Some people looked sad and took the

A large plastic sheet was placed on those people, as if saying a final farewell to them.

Gu Hongwei came over holding a child who had just been rescued. Seeing Tong Yao staring at the corpses in a daze, he thought she was frightened, so he diverted her attention and said: "His leg was pierced by a bamboo stick, help him."

Bandage it!"

Tong Yao came back to her senses in an instant, looked around, and found that everyone was rescuing. The surrounding houses collapsed and there was no shelter from the rain. She frowned and said: "It won't work if you keep being exposed to the rain like this. You have to build a shelter first."

A simple tent is used for injured people with limited mobility to rest. If they are exposed to rain all the time, their wounds are prone to infection, and there is no way to apply medicine."

"Look at him, I'm going to find someone to come over and set up the tent now."

Gu Hongwei put the little boy in Tong Yao's arms and ran over to call someone. The ground was muddy and his soles kept slipping while running. He almost fell down several times. When he saw Zhou Shi'an rescuing another person, he ran forward and explained the situation.

Zhou Shi'an looked around, then called someone, pulled out a piece of plastic sheet from the ruins, and quickly set up a simple tent.

Tong Yao was responsible for bandaging the injured in the tent, but in just over an hour, they had sent over six or seven injured, and the number of people lying under the raincloth over there was also increasing. She listened to the people who had lost their lives outside the tent.

Relatives and relatives wailed in grief, and their hearts felt sour.

I have seen these scenes on TV before, but I have never felt uncomfortable being in them after watching them ten times.

They didn't bring much medicine, so Tong Yao didn't dare to waste it. Some people's conditions were not so serious, so she simply bandaged them and was not willing to give them anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drugs. Fortunately, although there were many injured, none of them were life-threatening.

A few people stayed here until about four o'clock in the afternoon. Zhou Shi'an gathered everyone and started to rush to the next location. Tong Yao followed the others to clean up briefly and walked all the way to the dock town. They stopped when they met someone in need of rescue on the road.

I asked for help, and after struggling like this until midnight, I finally arrived at Pier Town.

People were everywhere looking for their loved ones in the ruins, and it was midnight. Apart from the light of the flashlight, they had no way to identify the direction and couldn't find the location of the school. Fortunately, the rain stopped, which was a big win for everyone.

Undoubtedly a blessing in misfortune.

There happened to be a half-collapsed house nearby, which seemed quite safe. Zhou Shi'an took everyone over to take a rest.

"It will be dawn in three hours. Let's turn off the flashlights and rest for a while. We will set off to school when the sun rises."

After saying that, he glanced at Tong Yao. To be honest, this little and petite little girl surprised him. Since arriving here, he has not said a word of tiredness, nor has he cried loudly because of the death.

Following them did not hinder the team.

Little girls like this are rare.

After hearing this, everyone found a place to sit down. After a long day, everyone's body was in a state of exhaustion and fell asleep soon. Tong Yao and several other girls sat together and quickly fell into a deep sleep.

It was a hot summer, but the weather in Qingcheng was very cool. Just as everyone was sleeping, the ground suddenly shook again. Everyone was awakened by Zhou Shi'an's roar and hurriedly ran outside.

The next second after everyone ran out, the place where they were just collapsed suddenly, and the gravel rolled down. Just as it was about to hit Tong Yao, someone pulled her aside. When she stood firm, she realized that the person holding her was

The person is Gu Hongwei.

While she breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't forget to say, "Thank you."

Everyone looked at the collapsed place and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. It was already dawn, and the people who had come cleanly were now looking very embarrassed. However, they didn't have time to think too much, and they were overwhelmed by the tragic scene around them.

Shocked.

This aftershock came too suddenly. Although it was not big, it was the last straw that broke the camel's back. Many people who had just been dug out for a chance of survival were buried in the ruins. They had no time at all.

Think more and join the rescue directly.

Tong Yao was still responsible for bandaging the wounds of the injured. Looking at the continuous flow of injured people and the dwindling supply of wound medicine, she pursed her lips tightly and could only hope that the regular medical team would come quickly. Everyone was busy until noon.

Tong Yao didn't even bother to take a sip of water. Finally, a medical team arrived. Tong Yao never expected that it was the medical team from Licheng.
