Chapter 544 544, the giant waves are coming!
Qi Han thought that he could take a break after finishing the rescue work in Qingshan Town, but they had no choice but to devote themselves to a new round of rescue work.
In this rescue work, the time is completely upside down and chaotic, and the so-called difference between day and night has long disappeared at the rescue scene.
There is no such thing as twenty-four hours. As long as people can stand up, they must continue to participate in the rescue work.
"Hey, when will this day be a head?" Li Guofu sat leaning against a stone, sighing on his face.
Fang Xuejun sighed, "Anyway, now that the rain has stopped, it can also reduce the burden on the rescue work."
Unlike when they were in Qingshan Town two days ago, they were completely saving people in the heavy rain. They didn't have any protective tools except the raincoats on their bodies. pain.
In addition, the rain is too heavy, and the vision of the rescuers will be blurred. Because of the unclear vision, there have been many accidents.
Therefore, saving people in heavy rain adds a lot of difficulty to the rescue work.
The place where they are now is Baiyun Town, which is already the third town they have traveled to. Now their motorcade not only transports the stranded people, but also helps transport some flood-fighting materials.
In the past few days, the team members of their team have not rested for more than three hours, and their stomachs can only eat five or six minutes full.
They still ate dry food with the rescue team, so they were barely half full.
"Aren't you tired? I don't have the strength to talk anymore."
Qiu Lin said weakly, he felt that the days in the past few days had made up for the hardships he had not suffered in the past few years.
He is tired and hungry now, his physical and mental state has reached the limit, even now he has no strength to get up and drive.
"Stop talking, I'm hungry and thirsty right now." Xu Xiangdong sighed helplessly.
Because the road was blocked, many rescue teams and vehicles that transported materials had to go around the road, so the time was delayed for a long time. Therefore, many aspects of the early rescue work could only be solved by themselves.
Qi Han pursed his chapped lips. The food his daughter-in-law had prepared for him had already been eaten up. Compared with his hunger, his thirst was more unbearable.
He felt that his throat was smoking, his lips were chapped and his lips were so dry, his mouth was dry, and even swallowing saliva was a little difficult.
Because of the floods, the nearby water sources have been polluted, and the water quality has become filthy. Even though the water in some places is still clear, Qi Han dare not drink it.
Even if he has not read the books of the later life, he knows from his previous life experience that the water source polluted by the flood must not be drunk, because it nourishes a lot of bacteria and viruses.
Imagine that when the flood washed the whole town, countless things floated or settled in the water current, and all the dirty and smelly things were mixed together.
Is such an infected water source still drinkable?
In addition to being very thirsty, what Qi Han wants most is to have a phone call with his daughter-in-law, but now there are many people around, and there is only such a small place to rest and walk, how far can he walk to make a phone call?
In this special period now, everything is done collectively, and it is absolutely impossible to leave a single person, so even to facilitate this kind of thing, it is also with each other, I am afraid of any accident.
Therefore, Qi Han was helpless and anxious.
He hasn't contacted his daughter-in-law for five days. She must be worried at home, right?
And now he doesn't know if the smart watch can still make calls smoothly, because in the first two days, he didn't pay attention, the watch was soaked in water.
Although the pointer is still running normally, I don’t know if it will affect other functions, because he can’t give it a try.
Nowadays, there is no other way to get in touch except through a smart watch. Even now, many places are blocked due to torrential rain, and it is impossible to even deliver a letter.
Now they are in the third town, and the situation is much better than the previous two towns, so he must find a way to contact his wife.
"Yu~Yo~"
Suddenly, there was a rush of whistling not far away.
"Run, comrades! The big flood is coming~ The dam burst! Hurry up and run to the hillside! Hurry up!"
followed closely, and there was a burst of roars from the front, and the voice was broken, which shows how serious the situation is.
In an instant, the people resting in the open space rioted, and they ignored everything and ran directly towards the hillside more than 500 meters away from the resting place.
This place is not against a big mountain, only a small hillside with a **** of more than ten meters. I don’t know if it can withstand the impact of large floods, but as far as the current situation is concerned, everyone has no choice.
"Hurry up, don't take anything away, hurry up, you'll be rushing over soon."
While shouting at the crowd, the rescuers looked at the large floods that were gradually approaching behind. The water was so fierce that there were even huge waves, at least two meters high.
It can be seen how big the impact of water volume is.
"Made! I'll take care of his flood."
"My God, why did the embankment burst!"
"Is this still alive~"
"Hurry up and run!"
Qi Han urged the people who were complaining for a long time, and immediately ran towards the hillside.
Originally, they were sitting at the temporary rest spot to rest, and it was because they helped to transfer a lot of people. Coupled with the wheel axles for several days, their energy was exhausted.
As a last resort, their group had to stop and take a good rest, and the people sitting in the temporary resting place, in addition to the members of the rescue team, there were also some local young adults who voluntarily stayed to participate in the rescue.
Plus some rescued victims, but their family members have not been rescued, so they also stayed here, waiting for the news that their family members were rescued.
Therefore, seventy or eighty people gathered in this temporary resting place.
Everyone in the resting place had already relaxed their vigilance, thinking that the flood had passed. After all, the rain had stopped, and the water in the town was slowly descending with the rescue team.
It’s just that the environment is now unsuitable for living, and we must wait until the waterline has completely dropped before we can carry out the next cleaning work.
Who knew that after the torrential rain hit, there was still a big flood, and the people at the scene couldn't help but yelled and ran up the hillside like they didn't want to die.
In the face of death, the human body will always burst out with an infinite energy, even if many people have no physical strength, but at this moment, the body has an amazing explosive power.
"Mother! What a big flood."
"Run! Run!"
There was a sharp shout in the crowd, and everyone turned their heads and looked back involuntarily when they heard it, and were shocked to find that the speed of the flood was extremely fast.
They hadn't rushed up the hillside, but the ferocious flood was about to hit the clearing where they had just stayed.
Now, the flood is very close to their crowd, and the distance between the two sides is gradually shortening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The more critical the moment is, the easier it is for the crowd to panic and panic. It is inevitable that there will be some unresponsive people who are panicking, at a loss, and overly frightened.
"Help me~"
"Woooo~"
"Please help everyone~ Where's my child?!"
There are a small number of women and children in the crowd. In such a dangerous situation, they are the most vulnerable beings, and the surging of the crowd can overwhelm them.
"Ah~ help~ help me~"
In the chaotic crowd, some mothers and children were scattered, some stumbled on their feet in a panic, some fell to the ground, and some were unable to walk for a long time because of lack of strength.
In the face of the huge wave that was about to hit the front, many people who rushed in front or ran behind did not hesitate to lend a helping hand.
Everyone was pulling, pulling, backing, or resisting, but in short, no one was left behind.
Because they are fellow siblings!
Because everyone is Chinese with yellow skin!
It is also because everyone has experienced this hardship together, so we can more empathize with the preciousness of life!
In the face of natural disasters, only by uniting as one and helping each other in harmony, can the combined strength be able to withstand all suffering.
Several people in the convoy came to help, and Qi Han was holding the boy who was scattered in his hands.
"Come on! The flood is coming!"
The huge waves of the flood were about to beat, but the tail of the team was still at the foot of the hillside.
"Hurry up~ Hurry up, work harder!"
Qi Han and the others fell at the back of the team because of their help.
At this moment, Qiu Lin slipped under his feet and fell directly, blocking the footsteps of several people behind him from climbing the slope.
This is sometimes the case, the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes.
"Are you alright? Get up quickly." Fang Xuejun immediately helped Qiu Lin up and dragged him up abruptly.
Xu Xiangdong was right next to Qi Han, seeing a huge wave of less than one meter, and shouted in horror.
"Quick, it's too late!"
As soon as these words fell, the huge waves fell. At the critical moment, Qi Han immediately pushed Xu Xiangdong and made him stumble on the edge of the mountain.
At this time, when Qi Han's body had sunk into the water, he even started to flow forward along the current. He had no choice but to throw the child he held high in his hand at him decisively.
"Dongzi, go on!"
Fortunately, the location of Qihan was on the edge of the mountainside. The flood came and increased the height, and the distance was close enough. The soil on the edge of the mountain was soaked by the rainstorm, and the ground was soft and sticky.
Even if the child falls to the ground, nothing will happen, and it is better than being submerged in a flood.
What's more, Xu Xiangdong also opened his arms and hugged the child in time.
"Akan!"
"Qi Han!"
The riders stood on the shore and shouted in panic. They wanted to hold Qi Han, but there was not even a wooden stick around, and the huge waves rushing over were so big that they didn't even have time to do anything. Qi Han had already been washed away by the flood.
The original setting, I wanted to write this plot well, but I had no choice but to encounter reality.
Forget it, my glass heart can’t write anymore, I can just go through the story in a rough way, and I won’t write the details.
There have been enough hardships recently, one after another, so let’s be a little bit less bitter in the novel, and tomorrow there will be a refreshing one.
Last sincere prayer: May the mountains and rivers of the motherland be safe and the world be safe!
