The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the rescue team got up. This time, because they were going to a more dangerous place above, the rescue team did not let laymen like Chen Xudong follow them, and packed up some tools and first-aid supplies by themselves. After buying some compressed biscuits and chocolates prepared by Xia Qingyang, they set off.

"There won't be an accident from above, right?" Xia Qingyang experienced such a natural disaster for the first time in his past and present lives, and he couldn't help but feel a little panicked.No matter how powerful human beings are, they are flesh and blood after all. When encountering natural disasters such as mountain torrents or mudslides, they can only resign themselves to their fate, right?

"It's okay~ Captain Ma and the others are all experienced rescuers. If something really happens up there, it's at least safer to have them there than the villagers here." Jiang Shaoan was also a little bit embarrassed. Chen Xudong left the hustle and bustle and came here for vacation, vaguely regarded this place as their second hometown.

"Don't worry! Captain Ma will notify the local government if something happens." Chen Xudong is also a little worried. He really likes Daxi, a paradise that is isolated from the world and has simple folk customs. If it weren't for the fact that the family has no heirs, he I really wish I could live here with Jiang Shaoan in seclusion for the rest of my life, and Shaoan would draw while he was handing the brush.

What everyone doesn't know is that at this moment, Captain Ma and the others are also in trouble——

Things are far more dangerous than they imagined!

Going up the winding mountain road that was washed away by the flash flood, the road was completely broken after less than one kilometer.Looking at the deep and wide chasm in front of them, everyone's scalps felt numb. After carefully checking the surrounding terrain, they decided to climb along the roadside moso bamboo forest.

The moso bamboo forest after the heavy rain, because the vegetation is not particularly dense, the feet are very slippery, so everyone simply tied ropes around their waists, pulling each other along the way, climbing up the moso bamboo as thick as an adult's arm...

After bending over for more than an hour, they finally crossed the section of road that was washed out. Standing on the top of Mozhu Mountain and looking down, everyone gasped!

terrible! ! !

It turned out that a mountain pond on the top of the mountain burst its embankment due to continuous days of heavy rain!The huge impact of the water whizzed down from the top of the mountain in an instant, sweeping through several small villages near the stream along the way!

Today, those small villages can no longer see their original shape at all, only a few ruins remain...

"Quick! Immediately notify the people below to report to the county government!" Captain Ma felt his legs go weak at the moment. Such a big matter could no longer be solved by their mere civilian rescue team...

They can rescue the villagers besieged by mountain torrents, but they cannot save these villages completely buried by mudslides...

Daxi, something big is about to happen...

In an emergency, Captain Ma asked all the team members to rest where they were, hastily ate some chocolate and compressed biscuits, and drank some water to replenish their strength.Then, everyone continued to climb slowly down the bamboo forest, trying to head towards the nearest small village...

After one o'clock in the afternoon, the people who were already covered in mud finally arrived at the nearest Yezhu Ridge. According to the old village chief, this Yezhu Ridge was once a resident of the local guerrillas during the Anti-Japanese War, and it had been brilliant for a while.

However, with the passage of time, there are less than 10 families left in Yezhuling today.Because the land here is barren and often infested by wild boars, it is difficult to harvest even corn and sweet potatoes. Therefore, all the mountain people who have a little money have moved out one after another. The rest are either poor or young and middle-aged. Left-behind elderly and children who go out to work.The permanent population of the village is less than 30.

However, at this moment, standing next to the big locust tree whose roots were washed away by the flood, looking at this small village that was almost wiped out by the mountain torrents, and the ruined walls all over the ground, Captain Ma and others couldn't help but get eye circles. Yihong: I don’t know if there are any survivors in this village...

At this moment, I don't know if it is God's mercy, but the continuous rainstorm has stopped!A ray of sunlight peeked out between the thick clouds in the sky.After confirming the safety at the foot of the mountain, Captain Ma led his people into the village slowly, and searched every house...

However, what awaits them is disappointment and sadness after all...

A family of mountain people near the upper reaches of the river, the whole house was buried by the big rocks rolled down from the mountain mixed with sand... Captain Ma and the others sighed. I walked over with my heart...

Looking along the way, several big men who often participated in the rescue couldn't help but get red eyes: it's too miserable!

When the flood came down, the whole village had almost no defenses, and they were buried under the sand with their houses!

"Captain...don't look at it!" A young man who had just joined the rescue team couldn't help but squatted on the ground with his head in his arms and sobbed.

"Ah!!!" Captain Ma randomly found a stone on the side of the road and sat down. He shook his hands and took out a pack of cigarettes from his underwear pocket. Each of them gave out a pack of cigarettes. A group of big men just squatted or sat and smoked. , without saying a word.

"Captain! There are children crying!" The young man jumped up suddenly, pointing to a stone house on the hill not far from the village. "It seems to be there!"

"Quick! Go and have a look!" Captain Ma snipped off the cigarette in his hand, grabbed his backpack and rushed up!

This stone house looks like an abandoned folk house that has been in disrepair for a long time. The doors and windows are rotten. There is still a fire in the dark room. Two small figures are sitting by the fire and hugging each other, sobbing softly...

"Children! Children, are you from this village?"

"Don't be afraid, children! We are here to save people, why are you here?"

"Are you hungry? Here, chocolate!"

After coaxing the two children around for a long time, the older child finally spoke sobbingly...

It turned out that these two children were also hard-fought. There were only the two of them and a 70-year-old grandmother in the family. Their mother was the daughter-in-law that their family "bought" from outside the mountain for 3 yuan, and gave birth to the second child. , After the husband was forced to go out to work for a living, the daughter-in-law left the child and ran away while no one was watching her!

It has been almost three years since the fathers of these two children went out to work, and they have never been back, nor have they asked anyone to send money back.

Before the flash flood broke out this time, because the younger sister was greedy and the family was reluctant to buy snacks, the brother took his younger sister and sneaked into this abandoned stone house, built a fire, and stole the neighbor’s raw corn for the younger sister to roast. Quenching.Unexpectedly, the corn was not cooked yet, and there was only a loud noise, and the whole village was instantly flooded...

Seeing that the situation was not right, the sensible elder brother hid in the stone house with his frightened and crying younger sister in his arms. Fortunately, because the terrain was relatively high here, it was not affected by the flood. By now, he was really thirsty, so the elder brother took a broken bowl that was discarded in the house and took the rainwater from under the eaves to drink.Fortunately, this elder brother is clever, and he knows how to boil water with fire before drinking, so he didn't contract any diseases from drinking unclean water...

"Fusheng, Second Sister, you, your grandma..." Captain Ma looked at the two expecting children with difficulty. Maybe they thought that they would save their only relative?It's a pity that it has been two days since the flash flood broke out. If it was buried below, it would be very difficult to survive... Large machinery can't get in, and they can't dig those big rocks to save people...

"Uncle, is my grandma dead?" Xu Fusheng, the nine-year-old brother, didn't go to school, but he was already sensible. He wanted to cry, but he and his sister were the only ones left in the family. Grandma said he was the mainstay of the family, Can't cry when things happen...

"...Hey! Son, take your sister down the mountain with us!" Captain Ma looked at the little boy who was holding back tears, and couldn't help sighing. People in my arms!

"Wow~~~" Xu Fusheng longed since he was a child that he would be like other children in the village, and have a father who could carry him around on his back. Unfortunately, his father had already left the village when he was sensible. The captain held him in his arms, leaning on Captain Ma's generous and warm embrace, and suddenly couldn't help crying.

"Woooooo~~Brother, brother!" Second Sister Xu, who was only five years old beside her, couldn't help crying too.The little hand was still tightly clutching the corner of his brother's clothes.

"Good boy! Don't cry~~don't cry~~" Captain Ma sniffed and wiped his tears with his hand, "Don't worry! Grandma is gone, and there are uncles! Fusheng and Second Sister will be full Dress warmly! Let's go to the city, uncle will let you go to school!"

Captain Ma has made up his mind now!

No matter what this time, even if he stepped on his own face on the ground, he still had to stalk Chen Shao, that local tyrant, to pay some money to raise these two children!They brothers have a weak foundation, so there is nothing they can do, but there are always kind people in this world who can help!

Because the situation on the mountain is really complicated, and the situation of the Xu Fusheng brothers and sisters is not very optimistic, Captain Ma made a decisive decision to take people down the mountain. The two young team members took out the spare thin blankets in their backpacks and wrapped the two children up. The rope was knotted and carried on his back, and he hurried all the way, and finally returned to Dazhulin Village before dark!

"What? The whole village... the whole village is gone?!" Hearing Captain Ma's words, the old village chief couldn't help but his eyes darkened, and he almost fell to the ground!

"...This is Fusheng and Second Sister..." Captain Ma carefully placed the two children who had fallen asleep on his back on the bed, and looked at the two children with pity.

"Oh! Isn't this Fu Sheng and the second sister of Grandma Xu's family?!" The butcher in the village recognized the two children at a glance. Usually, he would go to Lao Xu's house every time he went to collect pigs at the end of the year, so he knew the two children home situation.

"Oh! What a crime!" The crowd surrounded the child and sighed.
