"Say it again?"

Li Yuanlang and others also looked at him, obviously something was urgent.

After hanging up the phone, Zhang Quanlong looked at Li Yuanlang with wide eyes and murmured: "Something happened. A sudden flash flood broke out in Jiucheng Village and the village primary school was washed away."

"What!" Everyone was shocked.

Li Yuanlang exclaimed: "The primary school was washed away by the flood? Where did it go?"

"The specific situation is not clear yet." Zhang Quanlong shook his head.

Jin Sheng immediately thought of it and asked: "Yuen Long, does Jin Kening live in the school?"

"Yes." Li Yuanlang was a little flustered.

No matter how you say it, Jin Kening is his legal wife.

Even if he has no feelings, from a human perspective, Li Yuanlang is still concerned.

"It's raining heavily outside, Yuen Long, take my car." Zhang Quanlong suggested.

Ji Tianhou stood up and said, "I'll go too."

"Let's go together."

At Jin Sheng's suggestion, the four of them sat on Zhang Quanlong's off-road vehicle and headed straight to the old city village.

On the way, Zhang Quanlong made several calls and finally asked for details.

He said: "County Magistrate Liu is not in the county and is on his way back. The county has contacted the fire department to go for reinforcements. Organization personnel from Jiucheng Village are providing rescue at the scene, and rescue workers from Tuwa Township are also on their way to Jiucheng Village.

"

Li Yuanlang calmed down and dialed Jin Kening's number over and over again with his mobile phone, but the message kept saying that the phone was turned off.

Jin Sheng, who was sitting next to him, patted his arm and comforted him: "Don't worry, maybe the phone is out of battery."

Li Yuanlang also hopes so.

But the reality gave him a bad premonition.

The dormitory where Jin Kening lives is a bungalow, which has been in disrepair and is in very poor condition. It is very likely to collapse under the impact of floods.

If Jin Kening happens to be in the room...

Li Yuanlang didn't dare to think any further.

At this moment, he really wanted to spread his wings and fly to Jiuchengcun Primary School to see with his own eyes whether Jin Kening was safe.

Even though he was anxious, Li Yuanlang could not urge the driver to drive faster.

After all, we were traveling at night and it was pouring rain outside, so ensuring our own safety was the first priority.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, with no intention of stopping.

The weather forecast said that the heavy rain would not end until dawn.

The off-road vehicle drove slowly for more than two hours and stopped at the entrance of the village.

The policeman on guard stopped the car and Zhang Quanlong revealed his identity. The policeman in a raincoat saluted Zhang Quanlong and said politely: "Secretary Zhang, the road to the entrance of the village has been cut off by the flood. The water is too big and we can't drive through it at all.

"

Li Yuanlang and the four of them put on their raincoats and got out of the car one after another. They looked at the dark crowd in front of them. These were rescue workers who were blocked here by the flood.

Zhang Quanlong ordered someone to call the person in charge of the scene, who were none other than Tuwa Township Secretary Lu Ronghu and Township Chief Yang Xingmei.

When the two saw Zhang Quanlong and Li Yuanlang, they called Zhang Quanlong Secretary Zhang, which was no problem.

But Li Yuanlang didn't know how to call him.

Li Yuanlang didn't care. He was concerned about the damage to the village primary school.

Lu Ronghu took the lead and said: "Li... Li, Secretary Zhang, according to Yi Wenbin, the flash flood broke out in the evening, and the students had already finished school. The teaching building did not collapse, only the teachers' dormitory and the guard room were washed away."

"Where are the dormitory teachers?" Li Yuanlang asked anxiously. This was what he wanted to know most, especially the whereabouts of Jin Kening.

Yang Xingmei replied: "The principal said that the school has a total of four teachers living in the dormitory, and there is another doorman..."

Li Yuanlang interrupted directly, almost yelling: "I'm asking about the teacher's situation and if there is any news!"

Yang Xingmei shook her head in disappointment, "No one can be contacted. The flood is too big to rescue, and we don't know what's going on inside."

Li Yuanlang shook his head in pain, slowly walked towards the road washed by the rolling floods, and shined his flashlight into the school. He could vaguely see the ruins of the dormitory, but could not see anything else clearly.

The floodwater passed through the road and went straight into the river below. People were carried into the river by the floodwater. Judging from the current situation, the situation is very serious.

Besides, it's been raining, and it's raining so heavily, unless a miracle happens.

Could it be said that Jin Kening is really...

The rain hit his face, and he didn't know whether it was rain or tears that fell down.

This wedding night may be the night of farewell.

Things in life are unpredictable, with both contingency and drama.

If he hadn't stayed in the county to drink tonight, he might have been among the people washed away.

But Jin Kening was not so lucky.

&n                     nbsp; If I had known better not to send her back, I might have avoided this disaster.

There are no ifs in the world, only reality.

It's useless to say anything.

Jin Sheng and Ji Tianhou, who were always by his side, persuaded Li Yuanlang to go back to the car and sit for a while.

In addition to feeling sad here, I am also being poured down by the rain.

Li Yuanlang knew very well that he was nothing now and was here to influence the rescue.

Besides, he couldn't help.

With such a huge flood, professionals would not dare to go into the water easily. What could they do?

Back in the car, Ji Tianhou lit a cigarette and handed it to Li Yuanlang.

At this time, smoking is the best release.

"Yuen Long, don't hold anything back. If you want to cry, just cry."

With a wink as he spoke, Jin Sheng and Ji Tianhou got out of the car, leaving Li Yuanlang a private space.

Li Yuanlang didn't cry loudly, he just smoked heavily, but his eyes were already moist, and tears were rolling in his eye circles.

Thinking back on everything from when he met Jin Kening to now, Li Yuanlang's heart felt like a knife.

She is evil and has played a trick on herself.

Sin does not lead to death.

It is a pity that the golden years of twenty-four years old have faded away like this. Li Yuanlang lamented the injustice of God.

He stayed up all night and his eyes were red.

Jin Sheng and Ji Tianhou accompanied him throughout the process. At dawn, the rain subsided and the rescue was carried out in an orderly manner.

Since Jin Sheng and Ji Tianhou still had work, at Li Yuanlang's urging, they left by car and returned to their respective posts.

Zhang Quanlong came over and comforted him: "Yuen Long, go back and wait for the news."

Li Yuanlang leaned his head on the back of the rear seat and shook his head feebly, "Quan Long, I only have one wish. I want to stay here and see people dead or corpses alive. Please grant me your wish."

Zhang Quanlong sighed and said nothing.

In this way, Li Yuanlang sat in the car and waited.

On the evening of the next day, news continued to come that three bodies were discovered one after another, and two teachers and a janitor were fished out from the lower reaches of the river.

However, the whereabouts of another female teacher, Jin Kening, are still unknown.

Everyone knows that as time goes by, their hope of survival becomes almost slim.

The little miracle in Li Yuanlang's heart was gradually fading away.

But he won't leave, as he said, he will live or die or see his corpse.

If he doesn't see Jin Kening, he will stick to it.

For two days while staying in the Old City Village Committee, he only drank a small amount of water and ate half a piece of bread.

His eye sockets were sunken, his beard was unkempt, and he had lost a lot of weight.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, Zhang Quanlong hurriedly opened the door and came in, "Good news, the search and rescue personnel have found the missing female teacher, and she is still alive."

Li Yuanlang, who was originally depressed, stood up and asked in surprise: "Is it Jin Kening?"

"No." Zhang Quanlong shook his head and said, "Her surname is Huang..."

Li Yuanlang slumped down on his chair in frustration, with a disappointed look on his face.

"Yuen Long, we can ask her..."
