Chapter 224 Landslide Rescue
Chapter 224 Landslide Rescue
Suddenly a voice was heard, "Boss, the manager asked you to go and save someone," and someone was also knocking on the boss's door.
Xie Lei also came out, and his parents, who were still awake, came out to watch. His two sisters-in-law were also standing at the door of their room.
"Brother Xie Lei, you stay here to protect our parents, uncle, sister-in-law and children. Let a few guards come and help Brother Xie Lei protect them. Let's go and see what happened." Qiqi said.
Xie Lei nodded in agreement. He told them to be careful and not go to dangerous places. He also told them to think about their parents and children.
Zhou Jingze also ordered the guards to protect Qiqi's relatives.
Qiqi gave Zhou Jingze a flashlight and a raincoat, and she also put on a raincoat. Holding a flashlight in her hand, the two of them quickly headed towards the scene of the accident.
A dozen people were at the site of the landslide, some moving rocks, others digging the soil with shovels, and a supervisor questioned passersby. "Where are these passersby crying?" they asked. "Weren't we told you not to pass? You're just being disobedient. What's the point of just crying?"
"Stop crying, all of you. Tell us quickly so we can help." The manager shouted.
A passerby, too frightened to cry, said, "There are three of us, and two of them are buried down there. We're in business together. Please save them! We're from the same hometown and haven't made any money. We don't want to spend the night here, and we didn't expect a landslide. How am I going to explain this to their families when I get home? Please save them."
"Tell us quickly where they are buried. Get up quickly and show us." The person in charge pulled him up without further ado and walked towards the landslide site.
The passerby pointed to the middle of the landslide.
"They didn't run out, so how did you run out?" asked the manager.
"I threw away all the things I was carrying, but they were still carrying them. They couldn't run faster than me. I told them to throw them away, but they didn't listen because they were greedy for money. So they were crushed underneath." said the passerby.
Qiqi shone the flashlight towards the landslide. The manager was surprised to see such a bright object. It happened that their lanterns were not bright at all and they needed a light.
"Hello. Can we use your lamp? We need to rescue the people as quickly as possible." The manager said to Qiqi.
Qiqi didn't say anything, just handed him the flashlight and explained how to use it. He also told the manager to be careful of the secondary landslide. The manager glanced back at Qiqi. He knew he had met a master. He knew about the secondary landslide and warned him.
Qiqi took out two more shovels and a flashlight from the space. She handed one shovel to Zhou Jingze and took one for herself.
"Brother Jingze, be careful. Always pay attention to secondary landslides." Qiqi warned.
"Qiqi, hold the flashlight to light up. Let's dig." Zhou Jingze handed the flashlight to Qiqi.
"Okay, I'll observe the situation from a distance." Qiqi held a flashlight in each hand. One flashlight pointed toward the landslide, where a dozen people were digging and rescuing people. The other flashlight shone upward. The rocks there were loose, making a second landslide very likely. She kept a constant watch, alerting everyone to avoid danger if they were in danger.
The steward came up to Qiqi. "Miss, thank you for your light and for participating in the rescue."
"No need to thank me. This is my military shovel. You can use it." Qiqi said.
"Thank you," they said. They dug for about two quarters of an hour and dug out two men. The local doctor came forward to rescue them, but it was obvious that they were dying.
Qiqi also stepped forward and felt the pulse on his neck. There was still a faint pulse. She took out two pills, and Zhou Jingze quickly took them and stuffed them into their mouths. He let his head lie on its side.
After a while, the two men were able to move their hands. The steward was extremely excited. "They are alive. They are all alive. Thank you, Miss, for saving them."
At this time, the passerby stopped crying and crawled over. Seeing that his two fellow villagers were saved, he knelt down and kowtowed three times to those who saved his fellow villagers.
"Thank you for saving my life. Thank you."
At this time, the local doctor rushed over to feel the pulse of the two people lying on the ground. Their pulses were weak but not in danger of life. They woke up soon.
Qiqi had already handed the flashlight to someone else. She and Zhou Jingze were already on their way back.
The manager wanted to thank Qiqi and the others, so he turned around and looked at the person holding the flashlight. "Why are you holding the flashlight? Where's the rescue lady?"
"Butler, that young lady and her friends have gone back."
"Okay, you carry these two people back for treatment, and I will go to thank this young lady." said the manager.
The steward knew there were no such people in their town, so they must be from outside. That made it easy to find him, as there was only one inn in the town. He arrived at the inn quickly. The innkeeper had just returned from rescuing someone, so the steward didn't see him.
"Boss, why are you running so fast after saving someone? I still have something I want to ask you?"
"Manager, do you have anything else to say? Didn't the person get rescued?" said the shopkeeper.
"I'm just asking you, did your hotel have any guests today? Are they also participating in the rescue?"
"Manager, I saw them. They are the man who was lighting the way for us and a young man. They checked in today because it was raining. What's the matter? Do you have something to talk to them about?" said the shopkeeper.
"The two people we dug out, our doctors said there was no hope of saving them. I don't know what that young lady fed them, but they woke up. They saved them. Take me there, and I'll go thank them."
"Okay, manager, they are upstairs. I'll take you there. I don't know whether they will see you or not." said the shopkeeper.
They soon arrived at the door of Qiqi's room. In fact, Qiqi and the others knew about it when the manager came to the hotel.
The shopkeeper knocked on the door gently a few times, and Zhou Jingze came over to open the door.
"Hello, I'm the manager here. I'm here to return your lamp and shovel, and to thank you for saving two passers-by." The manager bowed to Zhou Jingze and Qiqi.
"I'll give you this flashlight. I have a few batteries here too. Use them sparingly. When the batteries run out, the flashlight won't work. I'll also give you these two military shovels. You'll need them in the future." Qiqi said.
"Thank you very much, benefactors. I thank you on behalf of all the villagers in the village. These will be of great use in the future. Thank you so much. The town will pay for your rent. Thank you." said the manager.
"Manager, that's not necessary. We will pay for the room ourselves. You can keep the money for road construction." Zhou Jingze said.
The steward went back with many thanks.
