The ground shook violently for a while, and gradually calmed down. Lin Chuan's mind went blank and he lost his ability to think. He was out of breath, and only knew to run crazily in the direction Xie Lang pointed out.

The abandoned factory mentioned by Fu Ming is not too remote. After all, transportation has to be considered. There is a concrete road with potholes outside the factory. I heard that it is close to the farmer’s market, which is considered a relatively prosperous area for the locals. But there was no way to come from the studio, and with the trees lying down along the way, it was extremely difficult for Lin Chuan to run all the way here.

Lin Chuan ran more and more panicked, and when he stumbled and rushed there, he was numb.

He didn't know if the earthquake just now was considered strong, but he could clearly see the ruins in front of him, as well as the huddled villagers who were terrified and dazed.

Lin Chuan bit his lips tightly, ran over with red eyes and asked, "Where is the fruit processing factory? Have you seen a man in a suit who looks good and is so tall?"

Everyone shook their heads, saying that they didn't see such a person, but pointed him in the direction of the processing factory, and kindly reminded him: "There may be aftershocks, don't go there, it's dangerous over there!"

Naturally, Lin Chuan couldn't hear it, so he hurried to find the processing factory. Seeing that the factory building had collapsed and there was no one around, he was so shocked that his tears rolled down uncontrollably. He cried and shouted Fu Ming's name, and ran away. In the past, I started to scrape the bricks on the ground, and then stopped.

Xie Lang hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"It doesn't smell like him..." Lin Chuan's eyes were blank, "He's not here..."

Xie Lang didn't know whether he judged by intuition or really had a good sense of smell. Seeing that he was so sure, he was a little undecided for a while, and when he was hesitating whether to find a tool to dig, Xie Ming's shout came from behind.

Xie Ming strode over: "Fortunately, I found you! Mr. Fu is not here!"

Lin Chuan immediately stood up, turned around and looked at him excitedly: "Where is that?"

Seeing the tears on his face, Xie Ming was not surprised. He turned around and walked along the road: "I heard that some officials came from the county today and led a group of people to the town. I guess it is Mr. Fu and the others. past."

Lin Chuan was in a hurry: "Then hurry up!"

Xie Ming pulled him back: "It's too far away, I borrowed a few bicycles, and we'll ride over there."

Lin Chuan nodded again and again, ran over and pushed the bicycle up, and rushed out as soon as he pedaled, Xie Ming and Xie Lang quickly followed.

The living conditions in this area are still very backward. Many people don’t even have electric vehicles. Most of them rely on bicycles or two legs. The bicycles are hidden at home as treasures. Now they are all crushed. The three vehicles they ride are all shabby. It's not good, because people don't feel sorry for it and put it outside. When you ride it, it makes a "clang clang" sound, some pedals fall off, some faucet heads are crooked, and some seat cushions stick to their buttocks.

The three of them didn't care about how uncomfortable the ride was, they pedaled fast, and it took more than an hour to get to the town, and it was already raining when they got there.

The town is also in ruins, but there are more people than the countryside. It may be because there are no tall commercial buildings here, and it happens to be daytime. Most people can escape in time. , coaxing children, crying loudly at the collapsed houses, both quiet and noisy.

Shocked by this scene, Lin Chuan was flustered and out of breath. He wiped off the rain on his face, strenuously crossed all kinds of obstacles, searched among the crowd, searched among the ruins, and shouted loudly while inquiring: "Fu Ming—Fu Ming - where are you - Fu Ming -"

Not long after, the sound of an ambulance came, and after a while, a military vehicle drove in with difficulty. The bewildered crowd seemed to have found their backbone in an instant, and the light in their eyes lit up again, crying and laughing: "Someone is here to save you!" We are here! Someone is here to save us!"

Crowds rushed towards the rescue vehicles.

"Hurry up and save my family!"

"My man is under pressure!"

"My child is down there!"

"My old mother is still at home!"

Rescuers jumped out of the car one after another, and began intense and orderly rescue work while appeasing the masses.

Lin Chuan asked around and searched for the location of the restaurant as pointed out by the locals. After the earthquake, it usually rained. The sky gradually darkened, and the rain became heavier and heavier. Soon more rescue vehicles came, but Lin Chuan still couldn't find it. Fu Ming, he looked around blankly with his mouth half open, his eyes were red, and it was rain or tears that slid down his face.

Xie Ming got a disposable raincoat from somewhere, walked over and handed it to him: "Mr. Lin, put on the raincoat!"

At this time, someone in the crowd said: "The county magistrate has been rescued!"

Lin Chuan's heart skipped a beat, he pushed Xie Ming away and ran over to ask, "Where is the county magistrate? Where is the county magistrate?"

The man pointed in a direction, and Lin Chuan ran over immediately.

The location of the county magistrate spans the entire town center, and there are ruins everywhere. It took Lin Chuan half an hour to get there. It was the rain curtain. He hurriedly took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and took pictures along the stretcher one by one.

It's not Fu Ming... this one isn't... no... still no...

Seeing a person with half-opened eyes, he hurried over and asked, "Are you with the county magistrate? Did you see Fu Ming?"

The man nodded.

Lin Chuan squatted down and asked anxiously, "What about others?"

The man's mouth moved, but he couldn't speak, struggled, and finally passed out.

Lin Chuan was in a daze. He stood up staggeringly, staggered and fell down again, he couldn't get up at all, crawled around and smelled it, and finally stopped in one place, his eye sockets became hot, and he started to pick bricks crazily .

"Fu Ming! Fu Ming!" Seeing that the rescue team was about to move to another location, Lin Chuan was so frightened that he rushed over to grab one of them, and shouted tremblingly, "Don't go! There are still people here! There's another one down there!"

The man patted him on the shoulder reassuringly. Because of the heavy rain, he had to raise his voice and shout: "No more! We have detected it!"

"Impossible! There is really another one!" Lin Chuan stumbled and ran to the front to call the person in charge, "Don't go, there are still people under the pressure, you hurry up and save them!"

The person in charge said helplessly: "It's really gone. I understand your feelings, but there are more people waiting for rescue."

Lin Chuan couldn't believe it: "Impossible, you lied to me..."

The person in charge didn't have time to talk to him, so he pulled his hand away and led the people forward.

Lin Chuan was in a hurry at the back: "Come back! There are still people! Come back quickly!"

Xie Ming rushed over to negotiate with the rescue team, but finally returned without success. Seeing that Lin Chuan was still picking up bricks, he walked over and said, "They said that there are no living people down here, and they used detectors."

Lin Chuan turned and stared at him: "What do you mean?"

Xie Ming choked up and couldn't say it a second time, Xie Lang's expression was extremely gray when he heard it.

The detector can detect life and find living people. If it can't detect it, there are only two possibilities. There is really no one down there, or even if there is, it is dead...

Lin Chuan was stunned for a moment, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably. He turned his head and moved the bricks and cement stones away with his cold fingers. He silently moved layer after layer, but the small hill was still piled high. , He couldn’t see the bottom no matter what, the bricks and cement stones were smashed to pieces, the sharp point slipped across his palm, blood gushed out, and was quickly washed away by the rain.

Xie Ming and Xie Lang were also moving, and they kept comforting him.

Maybe it's not here, maybe it happened to go to another place, maybe I went to the crew to find you...

Lin Chuan couldn't listen to anything, he could smell Fu Ming's scent, just below this small hill, he wanted to dig people out, if no one rescued him, he would rescue him himself!

"Fu Ming...you wait for me...you wait for me..." Lin Chuan made a weak voice, hoarse and dry, but his hands were stronger than ever, his eyes were already red from crying, but there was no despair in them, he just gritted his teeth Keep moving, muttering, "I don't believe it...I don't believe it...you wait for me..."

Xie Ming noticed that there was a dark color in his nails. He turned on his mobile phone to take a photo. He was terrified. He explained to Xie Lang and turned around to look for tools. Unfortunately, he found nothing after looking around. He only asked for it from the medical staff. Some sanitizer and bandages.

Lin Chuan refused to deal with the wound. He was afraid that Fu Ming would die a minute later, so he pushed Xie Ming away, his hands were restless, his lips were trembling and he was speechless.

After this tossing, it was almost dawn. During the period, there was an aftershock, and several buildings collapsed. The three of them worked together to slowly level the small hill. Xie Lang finally found a tool. Break off a shovel.

Seeing that he was about to dig with a shovel, Lin Chuan jumped over to stop him in fright, and shouted hoarsely, "No! What if we meet Fu Ming!"

Xie Lang looked at the shovel. It was more than sharp, but not strong enough. A shovel of such a large rock would probably break twice. Why not just throw it aside with your hands? Seeing the shovel fall to pieces, Lin Chuan’s nerves suddenly tensed. Breaking down, crying loudly.

"Fu Ming - if you want to wake up, answer me, I can hear you! Fu Ming - Fu Ming - answer me!"

The sky was bright and the rain was not abating. The vehicle for transporting supplies came in. The TV station's car stopped nearby. Xie Ming was bending over to move bricks. When he heard the movement, he turned around and saw someone getting out of the car with a microphone and a camera. , Immediately turned to look at Lin Chuan, who was crazily picking up bricks and stones, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything after all, only reminded Xie Lang that the two moved their positions to block Lin Chuan.

The heat from Lin Chuan's body was gradually lost, his whole body was stiff, his fingers were numb, and he couldn't hear any sound from the outside world. He could only smell the familiar smell that was getting stronger and stronger, and he moved faster and more eagerly. He kept calling Fu Ming's name over and over again.

"Xiao Chuan!"

I don't know if it was an illusion, but Lin Chuan finally heard the long-awaited response. There was a "boom" in his mind, as if a bomb exploded, and the huge energy activated his whole body, and his whole body suddenly had strength. He forcibly lifted a stone slab that was half the size of a human being, crying and shouting to the bottom as he moved it: "Fu Ming! Wait for me!"

"Xiao Chuan!"

Fu Ming's voice was louder than before, and it didn't sound weak.

Xie Ming and Xie Lang shouted in surprise: "Mr. Fu!"

Lin Chuan was stunned when he heard this, and moved another big stone slab away, revealing a corner of his suit underneath. His eyes lit up, his mouth half-opened and he was short of breath. : "Fu Ming, hold on, hold on... I'll be gentle..."

"Xiao Chuan!" A familiar voice rang in his ears.

Lin Chuan was stunned, and the next moment, he fell into a wet and hot embrace.
