79. There are no heroes who fall from the sky, they are all mortals who stand up (Modified)
But the khaki-colored river water mixed with mud was too fast. The woman was washed down by the flood, and her whole body was buried in the water and fluttered one after another. A man holding a banner was also dragged down.
But no one gave up at this moment. The man behind, who was holding the window railing and holding the banner with one hand, quickly wrapped the banner around his arm twice, and held on to Taotao with his own strength.
Two people in the rushing water!
The man who fell in the river quickly got up and pulled the woman up. Little by little, she was pulled toward the roadside.
…
"One, two!"
"One, two!"
In the low-lying areas, there was so much water on the highway that it almost submerged half of a person's body. More than two dozen people spontaneously gathered together, surrounding the elderly, children and women, to resist the rapid impact of the flood.
.People who don’t know each other now have 100% trust in each other. The person in front pulls the person in the middle, and the person in the middle pulls the person behind.
Little by little, we walked towards the higher ground on the other side of the road.
Some fingers are tightly holding the stranger's clothes, some are holding the hand of the person next to them tremblingly, and some are resting their palms tremblingly on the arm of the person in front of them. Some brave men with good physique keep their bodies steady while
While gently patting the fearful and trembling bodies of the people around him, he said softly:
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it will be over soon. It's okay, it's okay."
…
A group of children in their early teens braved the rain to stop a car coming from high in the mountains and about to enter a low-lying area.
"Don't cross, the front is flooded! Don't cross, don't cross!"
The children stood in the middle of the road through the rain, crossing their arms and waving their hands, and shouted loudly in the rain to the approaching vehicles with their headlights on.
…
The rain is getting heavier and heavier, low-lying water flows are gathering, and the ground is covered with yellow mud and sewage from above. The road facilities in the area have now become a river. Plastic warning signs are floating on the water one by one. The most terrifying thing is the sewer.
The manhole cover also floated slightly and broke away, forming vortices of water, sucking things from all directions.
When a person was crossing the road, the battery car overturned. He wanted to help the car up and push it to the side of the road, but he couldn't hold it firmly and was knocked down by a new wave of water. When he tried to catch it again, he could no longer catch it.
If a car breaks down or a person falls down, he cannot stand up, even if he tries his best to stand up.
People are carried far away by the flood, and they may enter whirlpools at any time.
People on high-rise buildings screamed in worry.
"Ah! No!"
"No, grab the tree quickly, grab it quickly! No!"
Just then, a man in a white suit waded through the fast muddy water and ran towards the man who was about to be washed away.
"Someone came to the rescue!"
At this time, a man in black short-sleeved clothes on the other side also waded into the water and ran towards that side.
Beside the man, a worker wearing blue overalls also stepped hard, resisting the resistance of the water flow, and ran towards the man in large strides.
People wearing raincoats, passers-by throwing away umbrellas, pedestrians still having energy left on the roadside.
From all directions, at this moment, everyone ran over with all their strength!
Finally, someone intercepted the man when he was about to approach the vortex.
"They all went to save... They all went to save, ah!"
"It's been saved, it's been saved!"
People on the high-rise buildings exclaimed in shock.
…
The rain is still falling, as if it will never stop. Nature is cold and unkind, but people have feelings. In times of crisis, everyone still has the energy to spare, and even when they have no energy, they are still trying their best to save others. life.
Many people stood on the roadside holding iron rods to save people who were swept away in the water and unable to stand.
At one place, a man passed by without grabbing his stick and was carried farther and farther away. The middle-aged man holding the stick in front of him immediately put down his stick and chased him through the water. The pursuit covered dozens or hundreds of meters. He followed closely and finally intercepted the person.
…
Chen Mo was floating on the rushing water at the lowest point of the puddle. The sewage mixed with mud and an unknown smell kept rising and flooding his mouth and nose, but he didn't pay attention.
Ignoring the splash of sewage on his face, the black mask was soaked. After pushing the rescued woman ashore to the people who were pulling her up with ropes, Chen Mo dragged his sore and tired body back into the water.
Chen Mo looked around at everything, everything that caught his eyes, and he didn't know why his eyes were red.
He couldn't stop, and everyone didn't stop. No great power is useless in the face of disaster. Everyone is just an ordinary person who wants to save the lives of others.
Several people from Liu Wei's river-tracing extreme sports team were also surrounding him at this time, panting from exhaustion, but their eyes were full of sadness and eagerness.
This is true for people who play extreme sports and have very good physical fitness, let alone people with average physical fitness.
But in this situation, every ordinary person who still has some energy is constantly saving people.
They are all moving backwards as mortals.
There are no heroes who fall from the sky. In times of crisis, there are always mortals who stand up.
At this moment, he was extremely lucky and happy to live in the same home with such a group of kind-hearted and lovely people.
…
"Quick! Get up quickly! Ah! No!!!!"
"come on, come on, come on!"
"Don't give up! Come on!"
Chen Mo turned around when he heard the sound, and he was not far from Chen Mo.
A vehicle was about to be driven into a low cliff. The driver desperately climbed out of the sunroof and stood on the roof of the vehicle.
What comes into view is the endless turbulent river water, surging with yellow-white water foam. The water all around is so fast that people can't stand at all. Behind them is the water falling rapidly like a waterfall, and the car is shaking and falling.
The gap between the wheels stuck on the rocks can no longer last long.
The desperate scene left the driver at a loss for a moment.
People on the roof who saw all this subconsciously held their breath and felt their hearts tightening.
The most difficult thing in the world to accept is to see a living life crumbling.
The moment the death's sickle was swung, people's hearts were lifted!
People on the rooftops in all directions were shouting at the driver, encouraging him not to give up.
Chen Mo clenched his fists slightly.
He patted Liu Wei, who was also looking over there, opened his mouth slightly, and said softly:
"May I?"
"Okay... let's connect several pieces of equipment together and hang the safety rope on the fence over there to give it a try."
"Okay, good job."
Chen Mo slightly pulled his stiff lips.
In fact, Liu Wei and the others are probably not sure either. Although river tracing is an extreme sport, it is still rare to see such rapid water flow like a dam opening its gates. In addition, several of them are now severely reduced in physical strength.
Accidentally, people really got in.
But Liu Wei and the others smiled, wiped their cheeks stained by sewage stains, and said without any hesitation.
Chen Mo patted Liu Wei on the shoulder.
Without saying any more words, the group of people waded through the water and ran towards that extremely dangerous area.
