Black clouds are rising in the northwest, and thunderstorms are bound to come.

When Li Hongbing walked out of the bath house, heavy rain fell from the sky crazily, and the dark sky seemed to collapse.

The raindrops hit the ground in a pitter-patter pattern, and the water in the rice field that had no time to drain was almost up to the soles of my feet.

Silly boy is using a hoe to clear the drainage ditch blocked by oak leaves in the heavy rain.

"Brother, put on some clothes. It's cold. Don't catch a cold." Shan Xing approached with a coat.

"Where's Brother Dalang?"

"In that room with Sister Lin Jia, Sister Cui has returned to the village. Brother, that Lin Jia doesn't look like a good woman."

Shanxing opened her clothes and whispered.

Li Hongbing smiled disapprovingly, put his arms into his cuffs, put on his coat and joked.

"How do you know she's not a good woman?"

"A good woman can cuddle and cuddle in broad daylight." Shan Xing frowned dissatisfied.

"People in the city are like this, don't worry about them." Li Hongbing looked at the rainy day, "Where is Anna?"

Shan Xing pointed to the old oak tree, "Nier, Dahua and the others are in the tree house, and there are two black dogs who don't know where they came from."

"Brother Dalang brought that. I'm going to help Silly Boy dig the ditch. The rain is a bit heavy."

Li Hongbing walked along the eaves to the warehouse, found the family heirloom raincoat, put on a bamboo hat, and looked like an old farmer.

Carrying a shovel, I walked into the rainy field and worked with Shawa to clean out the leaves and silt blocked in the drainage ditch. With the completion of the drainage ditch, the water accumulation in the rice field was reduced visibly.

After clearing the ditch, Li Hongbing looked up at Yuanbao Mountain in the distance. Everything he looked at was gray and covered by a curtain of rain.

"It's raining so hard. I don't know what's going on in the village. If the house collapses, it will be troublesome."

As the saying goes, good things don’t work but bad things work.

A cell phone rang.

Li Hongbing walked back to the eaves, dripping wet, and Shan Xing helped him answer the phone and turn on the speakerphone.

Before Li Hongbing could speak, Li Huaizhong's urgent voice sounded from the opposite side.

"Red soldiers, come to the village to help. The hillside behind Uncle Yandai's house has collapsed. The house and the people there all collapsed into the soil."

What!

Li Hongbing trembled, "I'll be there right away."

After that, hang up the phone.

"Brother, I'll go with you." Shan Xing looked worried on his face.

"Your legs and feet are inconvenient. Just wait for the news at home. Silly boy and I will be fine."

Li Hongbing directly rejected Shan Xing. It was difficult for normal people to walk in such heavy rain, let alone Shan Xing whose legs and feet had not yet recovered.

"Then you two be careful, don't show off, we can just go over and help." Shan Xingqian warned Wan.

"I know, silly boy, let's go."

Li Hongbing nodded and called the silly boy to walk out of the old house despite the wind and rain.

When we arrived at the village, the rainwater pouring down from Yuanbao Mountain filled the canals, and the silted rainwater flowed freely along the alleys. In some places, the water reached up to the calves.

The courtyard doors of each house were wide open, and rainwater poured out from the threshold, but no one came out to clean up the water.

I guess they will all be at Uncle Eyebag’s house.

Uncle Yandai has never been married and is a five-guarantee household in the village. The so-called five guarantees are food, clothing, medical care, housing, and burial.

My family lives in the west end of the village. It is a century-old earth-tile house. The back of the house is close to the hillside. A few days ago, Li Hongbing and his silly boy came to invite the blind man to a meal.

The house was in dilapidated condition, and the trees on the back hillside had been cut down by Uncle Yandai and planted as a vegetable patch. At that time, Li Hongbing thought that if there was a landslide, he would not be able to escape even if he lived in a house like this.

Unexpectedly, the words came true.

Soon.

When I arrived at Uncle Yandai's residence, I was shocked at the scene. Half of the hillside collapsed, and the entire house was buried by mudslides. Some roof tiles could be vaguely recognized.

The men in the village were digging up the soil with hoes and shovels in the heavy rain. The women were responsible for transporting the soil away, and everyone looked particularly solemn.

As soon as Li Hongbing appeared, everyone seemed to see the backbone and received a wave of greetings.

"Uncle Red Soldier."

"Red Soldier."

"Brother Red Soldier."

……

Li Hongbing didn't care to respond and walked quickly to Li Huaizhong, "What's going on? Have the people inside been dug out?"

Li Huaizhong didn't hold an umbrella, his whole body was soaked by the rain, his hair stuck tightly to his scalp, and his face looked anxious.

"No, it's still pressed under the soil."

"So many people can't dig out even one person?" Li Hongbing was furious, pointing at the people digging around.

At this time, Li Huaizhong said with a cry, "Not one person, Uncle Tobacco Bag, Uncle Mihu, Aunt Jinhua, Blind Liu, Aunt Jinhua, and Uncle Shaver are all buried underneath."

What!

So many people!

Li Hongbing's scalp went numb immediately. After reacting, he grabbed Li Huaizhong by the collar and said, "Why are they all running together?"

"My mother-in-law knows, some people say that Boss Ma doesn't accept people who are 60 years old, so Uncle Yandai gathered all the old people in the village for a meeting." Li Huaizhong was so sad.

At least seven or eight elderly people from the village were buried under the soil.

If he cannot be rescued, not only will his career be over, but he will also lose the shame to stay in the village in the future.

Li Hongbing abandoned Li Huaizhong and strode to the mound of debris flow, "We don't have enough manpower. Go and personally call the construction teams of Sun Qiang and Zhao Fu."

"I'll go." Li Hongqi jumped into the rain curtain like a mud monkey.

"Silly boy, dig in the soil."

The best time for buried pressure rescue is 72 hours, which is recognized as the golden time. During this time period, the buried people have the best chance of survival.

Time is of the essence.

Li Hong picked up a shovel and joined the digging team.

Try to use your senses to penetrate deep into the soil to find traces of the old people. However, after your senses only penetrate one meter into the soil, you will feel bursts of tearing in your head.

This won't work.

Before anyone else can find out, I might have my brain exploded first.

Soon.

Two construction teams arrived, and without waiting for tasks to be arranged, dozens of people climbed onto the pile of dirt and started digging.

Heavy rain continued to fall, and the washed hillsides collapsed from time to time. Before the excavated soil could be transported away, they were covered by new mudslides, making rescue more difficult.

Zhao Fu took the workers back to the school construction site and installed fenders at the gap in the debris flow. Sun Qiang sent workers to dig out a backflow trench. A two-pronged approach was used to change the direction of the debris flow.

Time passes minute by minute.

It took more than an hour to dig out the soil pile to a height of one meter. Everyone was exhausted. At this speed, it was very difficult to rescue people.

"Can the excavator come over?" Li Hongbing gasped.

Sun Qiang shook his head, "The alley is too narrow, and there are several turnings. The excavator can't get in. The only way now is to dig with bare hands."

What to do?

Li Hongbing turned to look at Li Huaizhong, "Uncle Huaizhong, have you contacted the town for rescue? Find a way to get a few small excavators and send them over."

Li Huaizhong secretly said, "I've made a call. The town's rescue team is blocked halfway. The road to Wangbashan has also collapsed. It will probably take until noon tomorrow to get through it. Chaotian Rock will be flooded and it won't be able to get up."

Mad!

All the bad things happened together.

Li Hongbing's breath was blocked in his chest and he wanted to vomit but couldn't.

"Then is there any way to rescue people?"

Sun Qiang said helplessly.

"Unless we can find the exact location, we follow the method of laying foundations and build retaining walls while digging. But in such a large area, who knows where people are buried?"

Exact location?

Of all the people here, only you can find people.

However, if you consume too much of your original power, you may fall into coma at worst, or die at worst.
