bunny in another soap bubble

The old mine is a ten-minute walk from the homestay, and the area is not large. Tu Zi found the only jack within two strokes.

Tu Zi didn't have much confidence in whether a rusty and old small jack could really hold up to that half of the wall, but saving people was like putting out a fire, so he took the things and went back without much hesitation.

Unexpectedly, when passing by an old mine whose entrance was half-collapsed, a familiar shock suddenly hit his face.

The shock wave... No, it was an awakening reaction!

Awakening is the most vulnerable time in Shaoxiang's life, and Tu Zi didn't even dare to stretch out the sensor net or the spiritual contact wire casually, for fear of collision.He approached the hole that only allowed half of him to go in and out, and raised his voice to ask, "Is there anyone inside?"

Just when I asked, there was a cry of pain from inside, and then another immature voice replied: "Yes!"

"How many people? Are there any injuries?"

"I sprained my ankle..." "I knocked my head..." "My knee hurts..."

Hearing the concern of the adults outside, several children inside complained, and some even cried.

Tu Zi was also very anxious outside: "Can you come out by yourself?" As soon as he opened his mouth, he found that he was talking nonsense. Although the inside was a child, he could run and jump. If he could come out, he would still be staying in the dark room. cry in the hole?

Among the children, there were no brats who didn't make complaints. When they heard his question, they just couldn't speak, or cried louder.The little girl who was the first to answer him before said: "We are in a pit, and we are not high enough to climb out." As she spoke, she remembered Tu Zi's previous question: "We have six people, all of whom are sunflowers every five years." group."

"Brother, I know, just wait a moment, I will come to rescue you soon!"

While comforting the children, Tu Zi was running around anxiously.

Langya is still waiting for the jack to save his life, but the awakening of the child in the cave is at the critical point, and the round trip will be delayed for half an hour, if something happens...

While in a hurry, Tu Zi suddenly saw a disheartened man passing by with a child in his arms.

"Sir!" Tu Zi rushed over and grabbed him, "Do you know the way to Mudanlou?" Mudanlou is the name of the collapsed restaurant.

The man looked impatient when he was first caught, but his attitude changed when he heard the name of the restaurant: "I'm going to Peony Building now, what's wrong?"

"There's a collapse—"

"What?!" Upon hearing the news, the man was about to run away, and Tu Zi pulled him back with all his might.

"Everyone is trying to rescue the people inside!" Pulling the man's hand, Tu Zi pushed the jack to him: "I was sent to get this jack, but I—"

"I'll send it over there!" Before Tu Zi could finish speaking, the man took the jack, shook off Tu Zi and rushed to the restaurant.

Tu Zi didn't have time to chase after the man to confirm, so he had no choice but to climb into the old mine to find children with confidence in human beings.

The man over there ran to the restaurant like flying, and when he saw the pile of ruins, he immediately went crazy.

"Yinyin! Yinyin!" The man's heart-piercing call did not get the response he wanted, but when he made a fuss, Lang Ya and others saw him and the jack in his hand.

Lang Ya stepped forward to stop the man: "Are you from the old mine? Where is the boy who asked you to come here with the jack?"

The man turned a deaf ear to Lang Ya's question. He just grabbed the only Lang Ya close to him like a driftwood, "Where's my wife? Is my wife down there? Help her, please help her!" "

The man screamed in panic, and the child in his arms also began to cry.

Seeing this, other townspeople quickly said, "Let's save people first. Since all the tools have been delivered, the little brother should be fine."

Lang Ya thought about it too. Although he was still a little worried, he took the jack from the man and decided to save the man first.

On the other side, Tu Zi took off his backpack and only held his mobile phone as a flashlight. With a small amount of dressing supplies and snacks in his pocket, he squeezed in through the narrow opening.

After entering, the child's place is not difficult to find.One of the kids held a toy-like miniature flashlight, the kind you could see a cartoon character projected on the wall, dim but good enough for directions.

Tu Zi lamented that it was a good thing to have this small flashlight, otherwise it would be pitch black in the old mine, and these little Doudings would have been scared out of their childhood shadows.

"Are you all right?" When he found the big pit where the children were, Tu Zi took photos of all sides, making sure that he should be able to climb back to the top after going down with his own skills, so he slid to the bottom while holding onto the pit wall.

"Big brother... woo woo woo..." After being frightened for a long time, finally seeing an adult, the children immediately relaxed their nerves, and one by one threw themselves into Tu Zi's arms, or hugged their thighs and cried.

Tu Zi patted his head and rubbed his back one by one, handing out candies and chocolates, and finally managed to stop the crying, but what worried him most was the awakening little whistle.

Telling the other children to get out of the way, Tu Zi hurriedly went to see the little boy who was lying on the side and moaning.

It was still the calmest little girl, who took the initiative to explain the situation to Tu Zi: "Today's outing, the teacher took us here to visit, but didn't let us enter the mine, we just made an appointment to go home and then sneak over to explore After that, there was a sudden earthquake, and the stones kept falling, and we ran and ran...and fell in here." As she spoke, the little girl pursed her mouth: "Chen Zian twisted his foot, Ling Jun hugged him and ran away. Yes...but then he fainted, screaming for pain all the time, but didn't wake up..."

Tu Zi looked at the little fat man named Chen Zian whom the little girl was pointing at, and then at Ling Jun lying on the ground, who looked like a doll with slender arms and legs, and he thought about it.

The burst of strength caused by the stimulus of the crisis, followed by the awakening... Thinking in his mind, Tu Zi rubbed his fingers next to Ling Jun's ears again, observing his subconscious reaction of dodging left and right.

——It should be a small sentinel, yes, or an acute awakening stimulated by the earthquake crisis.

The relatively closed and monotonous environment in the mine reduced the pain caused by external stimulation of the five senses, but it was still too dangerous to stay in the mine for a long time after the earthquake. After careful consideration, Tu Zi decided to take all the children out first.

"What's your name?" He asked the very sensible little girl.

"Zhang Ruzhu...everyone calls me Niuniu." The little girl said her name first, and then hurriedly added.

The taller children generally don’t like being called by their baby name at first, but there are always some bad kids in the class who want to call her “suckling pig” after hearing Niu Niu’s name, so she would rather be called Niu Niu.

"Niu Niu is good," Tu Zi patted the little girl's head, "Brother, go out now and get the rope and come back to save you guys. You and your classmates wait here obediently, don't be afraid, and don't run around, okay?"

Niuniu nodded, and whispered: "I will watch them."

After getting the promise, Tu Zi comforted the other children, and crawled out of the pit on hands and feet.

With his skill, it is no problem to climb out by himself, but he is not so confident with children, so it is better to tie a rope to pull and climb for peace of mind.

And at the restaurant, the delivered jack worked better than expected.Although the hand pump was old and the broken wall could not be lifted by the jack alone, after Lang Ya lifted it up, the jack was able to firmly hold it down.

Saving people was the most important thing, and Lang Ya didn't care to study the degree of stability. Seeing that the jack was supporting the broken wall, he dodged in and searched for the last female injured.

The young woman who hadn't responded to the young man's call before had regained partial consciousness when Lang Ya arrived, but she was still paralyzed on the ground unable to move.Time was running out, Lang Ya said "don't move around", picked up the man with both hands and ran back.

Stepping over the obstructing H-shaped steel, Lang Ya suddenly had an ominous premonition.

In the next second, the ground that had been silent for two hours shook again!

The intensity of this shock was completely incomparable to the previous two, but it was equally fatal.The structures that had been shaken so loose in the previous two strong earthquakes could not stand the test again, and for the people under the collapsed buildings, it was a narrow escape.

Seeing that the exit was in sight, the jack that had not been crushed by the cement was about to be shaken over by the aftershocks because it was not nailed to the ground.

There are still a few steps to go out, but if the jack overturns when climbing under the broken wall, the two will be crushed into meatloaf; but if you don’t run now, the only one who can lift the broken wall, Lang Ya, will be trapped by himself. No one outside can save them.

In the midst of a dilemma, Lang Ya's eyes flashed - he could only take a gamble.

The words were divided into two parts. After Tu Zi dug out the rope from his backpack outside the cave, he tied one end of the rope to a solid iron pillar beside the cave entrance.Although it was just a pillar with a danger warning sign nailed on it, Tu Zi kicked it a few times and it felt quite solid.

But when he dragged the rope back to the bottom of the pit, he found that things were not as simple as he thought.

"Big Brother!" Not only were the other children huddled together in fear, but even Niu Niu, who was the calmest, was about to cry: "Ling Jun has been like this since you went out!"

"Oops!" Tu Zi took off his coat, wrapped it around the little sentinel who kept banging his head on the ground, and locked him in his arms to prevent him from harming himself.

Even the young sentinel in awakening has far more strength than ordinary people. Tu Zi almost exhausted all his strength to hold the ten-year-old boy firmly.Fortunately, the guide never relied on strength to deal with the sentinels. Tu Zi released his spiritual tentacles, wrapped them softly around the back of Ling Jun's neck, and then sneaked into his consciousness, channeling his burst of strength step by step and extinguishing the small amount of emotional black spots caused by anxiety.

The guidance of the guide during the Sentinel's awakening is very important. In addition to channeling the power to avoid hidden injuries, if there are emotional black spots left in the consciousness layer in the early stage of awakening, the spiritual world of the Sentinel will get used to the existence of the black spots. In the future, the self-healing and Immunity will be weaker.

Therefore, Tu Zi put aside other issues for the time being and concentrated on escorting Ling Jun.Until Ling Jun stopped struggling completely, and Tu Zi heard a crisp "Wow!", he knew he was done.

A fluffy husky cub raised its head and looked at Tu Zi with bitterness and hatred.

The little sentinel who had just awakened himself was not yet sober.

"Okay." Afraid that other children who couldn't see the spiritual body would be scared, and didn't want to use badges to make them wonder why there was a milk dog suddenly, Tu Zi didn't pay much attention to the mini Erha, "Ling Jun is fine, brother Take you out-"

As soon as Tu Zi stood up, he felt a sudden vibration.

"..."

……aftershock!

The extent of damage caused by an aftershock is often not only affected by its intensity, but also closely related to the time when it occurred and the progress of disaster relief at that time.

With the last breath in his chest, Lang Ya protected the wounded and threw himself out from under the ruins.When he passed under the broken wall, the jack shifted, and the concrete wall completely lost its support and collapsed.

In the nick of time, Lang Ya escaped with the person in his arms, and when he threw himself on the ground outside, his trousers were still pressed by a corner of the broken wall—just a hair's breadth away from his legs.

"Yinyin!"

The man rushed over with his son in his arms, pulled his wife up and hugged him.

"It's great that you don't have the truth..." The family was reunited, and all three of them cried.

The aftershock subsided again before he knew it, Lang Ya was still in shock, gasping for breath, he pulled the man off his wife's shoulder with one hand.

"Where is the man who gave you the jack!"

"I, I don't know..." The man was stunned, "I only care about coming back to save people, and I just—"

Veins appeared in the hand holding the man's shoulder, and Lang Ya asked, "Where did you meet him?"

"Mine! Old mine!"

Letting go of the man, Lang Ya ran towards the old mine at full speed.

However, when Lang Ya ran to the old mine, there was no popularity there.

The entrances of several mines all collapsed and merged with the surrounding rocks, as if they had never been opened.The only evidence that someone had entered was some destroyed wooden bars, scrap metal... and a black backpack under the pile of rubble, and a rope tied to an iron post.

With bloodshot eyes, Lang Ya began to dig rocks with his bare hands.His hands were red, swollen and damaged, but the backpack he dug out was just a backpack, and the rope he pulled out was also broken, and the person was not under the gravel.

Facing the broken rope of the backpack, Lang Ya was at a loss for a moment. He didn't know whether he should be thankful that Tu Zi was not buried here, or should be afraid that Tu Zi might be deeper in the collapsed hole. After all, these two possibilities , in fact, generally there is death and no life.

Stumbling to his feet again, Lang Ya had no other ideas, he only knew that he had to keep digging, otherwise Tu Zi would really have no last chance of survival.

And the townspeople who came after him couldn't bear to see him digging the mountain with bare hands.From their point of view, no matter who was buried under the collapsed mine, they were probably dead.

Just when the atmosphere was dead silent, only the sound of Yu Langya digging stones alone, a few more people came from the old mine.

The man who brought the jack just now came with a few townspeople from other disaster sites. They looked anxious and wanted to find Lang Ya when they met.

"A lot of houses collapsed on the side of Xinjie, many people were suppressed, and we couldn't lift those beams." The few people who came were all relatives who were trapped, and they were extremely anxious, just wanting to let Lang Ya Follow them immediately to rescue people.

Lang Ya didn't raise his head: "My friend is still down here."

Only then did the newcomers know what Lang Ya was digging. The man looked at the collapsed mine, hesitated again and again, and said: "If you continue digging like this, why... why don't you come with us to save people first, and then everyone will help you." See if you can get an excavator over here..."

"——You want to say that he is hopeless, and my digging is in vain." Throwing down the stone in his hand, Lang Ya interrupted the man's fumbling words, his voice was like ice slag.

The man was silent, and stretched out his hand to pat Lang Ya's shoulder: "My condolences—"

With a sound of "snap", Lang Ya slapped the man's hand away with a wave, and continued: "If I told you just now that your wife is hopeless, and I let you mourn, how about it?"

"This..." The man's face turned red and then turned white, he wanted to say "this is different", because Lang Ya could really save his wife, but the people buried in this mine have no way to recover.But at the same time, he remembered that his wife was the one who risked her life to come back, and suddenly became a little shorter, unable to speak.

The people who came behind him heard the conversation and knew that Lang Ya probably refused to go with them, so they hesitated. One of the old women knelt down on the ground and cried loudly: "Brother, please! Please save my son! I only have this one son! Please!"

Lang Ya clenched his fists tightly and stared at the old woman, his chest heaved and his eyes were cracked.

The scene was deadlocked for a moment.

"...I heard that when the mine was opened back then, it was first opened from the side of the sunny slope behind. Later, something unlucky happened, and it was moved here to start mining again." An old man who had been following people to save people said, breaking the silence: "Maybe the two sides are connected...or the entrance over there is still there, so the little brother will be saved." The premise is that the person is still alive.

Lang Ya suddenly turned his head, gave the old man a grateful look, left everyone behind and rushed to the other side of the hillside.

The old woman and a few others wanted to pull it, but they couldn't even grab a piece of clothing.

The rest of the people at the scene regained their composure and calculated with each other, sending out most of the young and strong to go to Xinjie to try their best to save people, and the rest of the old people turned around and followed Lang Ya's back to Yangpo, trying to help find the rumored person entrance and exit.

Inside the mine, Tu Zi and six children were also looking for another exit.

When the aftershocks occurred, their original location completely collapsed, not only the roof of the mine, but also the bottom of the mine collapsed on a large scale.Because of this, they managed to escape the fate of being crushed to death, but rolled from the bottom of the collapsed pit to an unknown place.

Based on some rusty iron bars that the flashlight saw, Tu Zi could only speculate that this might be part of the artificial mine.

"Brother." Ling Jun gently shook Tu Zi holding his hand, and pointed to him somewhere on the cave wall, "Does that look like an arrow?"

After Ling Jun regained consciousness, Tu Zi let him understand his current situation through the dialogue at the conscious level.Although he was a little scared when he saw the husky next to him at first, this child is still a relatively strong type, so Tu Zi boldly taught him to use his sharpened five senses to help find the way.

Hearing Ling Jun's reminder, Tu Zi quickly shone his flashlight on the cave wall, and sure enough, he found a few faint red paint.Carefully wiping away some of the dust on it, Tu Zi asked Niuniu to hold the flashlight to shine on it, and picked up Xiao Lingjun himself for him to see.

Ling Jun studied for a while, and exclaimed in surprise: "Exit! The exit is over there!"

The one big and six young ones immediately cheered up, one by one led the other, and walked up in the direction indicated by the arrow.

As he walked, Tu Zi staggered, if it wasn't for a small sentinel holding one hand, he would almost drag several children down.

"Brother, are you okay?" "Brother!"

"...It's okay." Tu Zi shook his head and continued to walk forward.

Panting and walking for a while, finally came to the end.The narrow road section, several stairs, and a door above the head seem to be designed for emergency entrances and exits.Tu Zi groped up the stairs, but the door couldn't be pushed open.

With his heart beating faster, Tu Zi pushed up hard, but found that he couldn't exert much strength.

"Ling Jun," Tu Zi shook his head, but his eyes became more and more dazzled, "Come here and try."

Ling Jun came and tried, but he couldn't push it away.

"No way..." After finally finding the exit, it was blocked...

Tu Zi sat down on the steps, feeling weak all over.

"Brother..." Niuniu came over, "Can I go out? I'm so sleepy..."

"Don't worry." Tu Zi has already noticed that the current physical condition is not right, but he can only comfort the child, "Brother will find a way..."

Tu Zi wanted to release his mental tactile thread, but he couldn't concentrate, and his consciousness became more and more blurred...

Lang Ya ran to the sunny slope, but found that the place was overgrown with weeds, and the remains of the old mine (if it existed) had almost completely disappeared.

The old people who followed were also at a loss, and one of them said worriedly: "I can always find it by searching inch by inch. I am afraid that the mine has collapsed so badly that I don't know if there is any air in it."

Unable to find anything, Lang Ya simply stopped and closed his eyes, thinking desperately if there is another way.

——The last time he separated from Tu Zi, how did he find each other?

Think about...

——Have it!

The scene that happened at Jingyan Casino vividly reappeared in his mind, Lang Ya tried his best to calm down, and for the first time in his life, he tried to actively send out resonance waves.

Wave after wave of resonance ripples spread out like ripples, and just when Lang Ya began to suspect that there would be no response, another weak resonance wave came from the northeast direction, gently touching the edge of Lang Ya's ripples, Then closely match every detail of the frequency of the two sides, triggering strong fluctuations!

Shocked, Lang Ya frantically ran towards the direction of resonance.

With the guidance of resonance, Lang Ya quickly found the sealed trap door hidden under the weeds.Picking up a stone next to it, Lang Ya smashed it desperately, and finally punched a hole in the plank, and then he stretched out his hand to grab the hole and demolished the entire wooden door!

"Drink cough cough—"

"Tu Zi!"

The instant influx of fresh air made Tu Zi sober up, "Cough, wait a minute." He stopped Lang Ya's hand that was about to hold him up, bent down and lifted Niu Niu up.

One, two, three...

"...Six, all of them." Heaving a sigh of relief, Tu Zi lost his strength, resting his chin on the hole and giggling.

Lang Ya couldn't wait any longer, he leaned into the hole from the side, held Tu Zi's waist with both hands, and lifted him up with all his strength.Under the reaction force, he also fell back and collapsed on the ground.

Tu Zi was so exhausted that he couldn't stand up after struggling for a few times, so he had to give up and half propped up and half sat on Lang Ya's body.

"...Help." Putting his hands on the ground, Tu Zi couldn't help panting, his face was full of joy after the catastrophe, and the flush left by the previous resonance effect.

Lang Ya was also panting, looking at Tu Zi's face against the light, speechless.

--sky.

For a moment, his brain seemed to no longer belong to him, and he only thought about one thing——

—he wanted to kiss him so much.
