After a few hours of subsidence, the rain gradually became heavier again in the middle of the night, and the rain and night intertwined in the night, blocking everyone's "peeping".

Just when Su Chenyu left Pengcheng for Jinling, the search and rescue troops sent by the Yishui Embankment and the rescuers from Xinxian County had already begun to carry out search and rescue operations. The search and rescue team of the Yishui Embankment went upriver from the main stream to carry out a comprehensive search and rescue to the Yishui tributary of Xinxian County, while rescuers from Xinxian County began to search downstream from the vicinity of Dapeng Town.

However, due to the increasing rain and the drastic reduction in visibility, the progress of the search and rescue was very slow, and the debris drifting through the flood from time to time also made the search and rescue more difficult.

The most important thing is that for such a large area of flooded water, this is a drop in the bucket for search and rescue personnel - not enough to fill their teeth.

Fortunately, when the sky was bright, the participation of a group of living forces made the progress of the search and rescue operation begin to speed up, and because it was relatively experienced rescuers, the search and rescue began to be on the right track.

There is no doubt that this group of new rescuers was brought by Su Zhenbang from all over the country, and this group of people are all "pseudo-professionals" who have participated in flood rescue experience.

On the way back to Pengcheng from Jinling, Su Chenyu told Su Zhenbang and Feng Ying the details of Tian Xiaolu's disappearance. After listening to Su Chenyu's introduction, Su Zhenbang and Feng Ying felt indescribable guilt in their hearts, no way, both of them thought that it was Su Chenyu who didn't catch Tian Xiaolu at the last moment to let her be swept away by the flood.

"No matter what the price is, you must find Xiaolu, this girl, you have to see people in life, and you ...... in death"

The latter half of the sentence, Su Zhenbang really couldn't speak, he really couldn't imagine that the lively and cute, like an elf Xiaolu would leave this world in such a way.

She is in the best years of her life, she has not been a wife, a mother, or a family with children and grandchildren around her knees, how can she say that she is gone.

Feng Ying had red eyes and said with some sadness: "I believe that Xiaolu, this girl is blessed with a great life, and she will be fine." You say you're a kid too, why don't you have the strength to do it at the last time? What are you two going to do by jumping down to save someone? Aren't you going to call someone?"

Hearing Feng Ying's words, Su Chenyu's heart became more and more remorseful, and Tian Xiaolu's appearance of being swallowed by the flood before he even finished his words came to his mind again.

Indeed, at that time, even if he had a little more strength, even if his internal strength broke through in advance at that moment, even if that wave peak was a minute late, even if it was ...... There are too many regrettable pictures that are constantly replaying in his heart, if Tian Xiaolu really dies like this, then he Su Chenyu will live in regret for the rest of his life.

"Okay, what's the use of talking about this now? Now it's the right thing to think about how to find Xiaolu. ”

Su Zhenbang looked at Su Chenyu, whose face was full of pain, and felt a little sorry for his son, he understood this helplessness and remorse - just like when he had to bury Lao Li and his comrades-in-arms in a foreign country on the battlefield in Vietnam.

patted Su Chenyu on the shoulder, Su Zhenbang said comfortingly: "Don't worry, we will definitely find Xiaolu, I believe that girl must still be alive." Now that the first batch of rescuers has arrived in Xinxian County to join the search and rescue, and then there is a steady stream of search and rescue personnel thrown in, I don't believe that the whole Xinxian County will be turned upside down and no one can be found?"

Feng Ying also found out that her son was remorseful and painful, so she seemed to comfort Su Chenyu and said as if comforting herself: "Xiaolu will definitely be fine, will definitely be fine......

"Professional search and rescue personnel from the United States and Britain will arrive in Jinling this afternoon, and I hope she is still alive now, even to find her at all costs. Su Chenyu knew that now was not the time to regret it, so he said: "By the way, Mom, my godmother's side ......"

"When I returned to Pengcheng, I went to accompany my eldest sister. Feng Ying said a little uncomfortably: "If Sister Yu knew that something like this happened to Xiaolu, she would definitely not be able to stand it." Hey......"

"You hide it from Eldest Sister Yu first, don't show it too obviously, don't say it yet. Let's work harder to search and rescue it, and if there is really no way, we will discuss it with Brother Tian again. Su Zhenbang thought for a while, and then said a little heavily.

Feng Ying nodded, she knew how much damage this blow could have to a mother, Su Chenyu drowned a few years ago, the moment she heard the news, she felt that the whole world had collapsed.

"I know, I try not to show it. I hope Xiaolu's child is okay now. ”

Speeding cars braved the wind and rain to drive in the direction of Pengcheng, and the trucks transporting troops and supplies passing by on the road from time to time showed how damaging the damage caused by the floods was.

At 10 o'clock, the car drove into the urban area of Pengcheng City, sent Feng Ying home first, and Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu went straight to the Yishui Embankment. Now the Yishui embankment has passed the most dangerous moment, the big flood peak has passed, and only a few waves of scattered small flood peaks are invading the embankment painlessly, but there is basically no danger.

"Brother Tian. Looking at Tian Mingli, who had not seen him for a while but was haggard and much older, Su Zhenbang held his hand heavily and said in a deep voice: "I'm sorry for you." ”

Looking at Tian Mingli, who seemed to be several years old overnight, Su Chenyu's feelings were deeper than Su Zhenbang's-although Tian Mingli was tired and haggard yesterday morning, he was not so old.

Only then did Su Chenyu understand how difficult the night was, and how painful and embarrassed Tian Mingli's heart was—on the one hand, there were millions of ordinary people behind him, and on the other hand, his daughter whose whereabouts were unknown.

"Godfather. Dragging the crying voice, Su Chenyu almost choked up and shouted, he only now realized what a bastard he was when he said on the phone yesterday.

shook hands with Su Zhenbang heavily, Tian Mingli hurriedly turned around and raised his hand to wipe his red eyes, and then turned around and said, "Brother Su, I can't leave here, Xiaolu, this kid, please ask you and Xiaoyu." ”

"Don't worry, I'll find Xiaolu. Su Zhenbang looked at Tian Mingli, whose eyes were red and tears were strangled in his eyes, and promised: "I, Su Zhenbang, want to find Xiaolu at all costs." ”

"Now my dad has brought in the first batch of rescuers from all over the country to join the search and rescue, and the next few batches will be put into action soon. Su Chenyu looked at the haggard Tian Mingli, and could only say some good news, hoping that he could calm down a little: "The professional rescue teams from the United Kingdom and the United States will soon arrive in Pengcheng, and with them joining, I believe that Sister Xiaolu will definitely be found." ”

"Brother Tian, don't worry, the search and rescue has begun now, and I believe that Xiaolu will be found soon. But on the eldest sister's side, maybe we have to hide it from her now, otherwise she will definitely not be able to stand it. Su Zhenbang thought about it for a while, and then said cautiously: "I have already asked Xiaoying to go to Sister Yu at noon to visit the door and accompany her." But you have to make a phone call to appease her, otherwise she will definitely be suspicious if she hasn't seen Xiaolu for so long. ”

Tian Mingli listened to Su Zhenbang's words, nodded, and then said, "I have to call her now, let's hide it from her first." If you really can't find it, tell her slowly. ”

After speaking, Tian Mingli picked up the phone on the table and dialed it, and the phone was immediately connected.

"I, Tian Mingli, why are you so slow to answer the phone. Tian Mingli pretended to be calm and said without words.

Yu Yuexiu on the other side of the phone didn't care about Tian Mingli, she hadn't slept much all night, so she hurriedly asked: "Lao Tian, why hasn't this girl come back yet? It's been a night, nothing will happen, right? Don't hide it from me." ”

"What can happen? You have been thinking all day long, this girl called last night, and he and Xiaoyu are now in Xinxian to help resettle the affected people. It's going to take a few days to get home, what are you worried about, this girl is so big. ”

Tian Mingli suppressed his almost collapsed emotions while pretending to calm down Yu Yuexiu on the other side of the phone, and as he spoke, Tian Mingli's face was full of tears.

"This girl is really, she doesn't call home when she goes there, it's really worrying. Now that you know that she is fine, Lao Tian, you should also pay attention to your body on the other side of the embankment. Yu Yuexiu on the other side of the phone obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and her hanging heart finally relaxed temporarily.

"I know, I'll hang up if it's okay, and the girl will be home in a few days. ”

After saying this, Tian Mingli's face was already full of tears - the man didn't flick his tears when he had them, but he didn't get to the sad place.

Yu Yuexiu was afraid that Tian Mingli would hang up the phone, so she hurriedly said: "By the way, Lao Tian, you tell that girl to be careful, I always have nightmares these days, I am always panicked, and I feel like something is going to happen." ”

"Got it, I'll let the staff who went over there relay her. It's okay, I'm hanging, it's quite busy here. ”

Tian Mingli hung up the phone after speaking, and then suddenly collapsed as if his backbone had been sucked away, but fortunately, Su Zhenbang beside him was quick-eyed, and helped him to the chair at once.

For such a long time, Tian Mingli has been suppressing the sadness in his heart in front of people, afraid that his emotions as the commander-in-chief of flood control will affect the soldiers on the embankment. Now in front of Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu, Tian Mingli really can't suppress his tear ducts, and vents his grief for this period of time.

"Godfather, you also have to pay attention to your body, now that the search and rescue work has started in full swing, you can't get tired. Su Chenyu said worriedly, he was afraid that Tian Mingli would break his body because he was too sad.

wiped the tears on his face, and after a while, Tian Mingli regained his strength: "Don't worry, I will definitely see Xiaolu come back alive, definitely." ”

Human life is at stake, and there is more hope for life a minute earlier, so Su Zhenbang and Su Chenyu did not stay in Yishui Embankment for a long time, and went straight to Xinxian.

Now that the second and third batches of domestic search and rescue personnel have been in place, and the rain has subsided, the full-scale search and rescue work will officially begin......
