Chapter 198: Hope
The Empty Park Authority should not have reacted by now. The middle-aged man's heart also began to be anxious, what is the problem at the foot of this mountain? But now he is not allowed, he panicked, he forcibly endured the uneasiness in his heart, but there was no expression on his face.
"I'll think so, and I'll send someone out to take a look at it every once in a while. Hey, that old king over there, I see you have a raincoat there, don't you?"
Lao Wang, who was selling goods, was suddenly named, and he was also stunned, and when he heard the middle-aged man's question, he nodded directly. The mountain movers are experienced, and the rain gear they prepare is generally raincoats.
The middle-aged man saw him nodding and immediately said, "In this way, you bring the raincoat first, and every ten minutes, we will send a young man to wear a raincoat and go to the edge of the chain bridge to see the movement." ”
Then he amplified his voice again and continued, "The Park Service will definitely help everyone, it's only a matter of time, please be patient and wait." After all, today's weather is really unexpected. ”
Although the people next to him are still very dissatisfied, there is really no one in this situation now, and they can come up with a better plan.
Just when everyone could only continue to wait in a dull manner, a little boy about ten years old suddenly cried, "Mom, I'm hungry." I'm hungry and I want to eat. ”
The mother next to him hurriedly comforted the little boy and rummaged through her backpack. However, she had already given the little boy everything she could eat in her backpack.
The mother looked left and right, and at the inquiring gaze of the people around her, everyone around them turned their heads. She bit her lip, then stood up and asked in a loud voice, "Who else has food?" Can a kind friend, with food, give it to this child?"
Hearing her say this, many people around her began to rummage. But in fact, in the afternoon, everyone basically ate everything they could eat. There are many people who travel lightly, and now their stomachs are also empty, and they are also hungry and cold.
The mother, seeing that no one could bring out the food, continued to shout, "I give money, I take money to buy it." Can anyone sell me some food?"
An aunt next to her sighed: "Hey." I just sell food, but the evil wind at noon, such a heavy rain, my guys have thrown everything outside, and I don't know what else can be eaten. ”
Only then did people remember that at noon, when they were sheltering from the rain, in order to fit one more person in the gazebo, all the things that could be thrown out were thrown out. At this time, in this pavilion, except for people, they are people.
The little boy was still whimpering, and his mother had no choice but to pick him up and coax: "Bear with me, baby, bear with me a little longer, and soon we will be able to go down the mountain." ”
When the middle-aged man saw this scene, he also turned his head helplessly. When it was pouring rain at noon, he organized people to throw all the goods of those vendors out of the pavilion. In the afternoon, when the wind was light, a few young people were hungry and went to the neighborhood to find food, but after the strong wind passed, there was basically nothing left to eat. This time, the losses of the traders were also large.
The original few mobile merchant pavilions on the top of the mountain were also blown away by the wind. Most of the people in this pavilion have not eaten or drunk water for a day. If they are allowed to endure like this for another night, there will definitely be many people who will not be able to hold on. Not to mention that there are quite a few children.
In his heart, the middle-aged man worshiped all the immortals he could think of, and only hoped that now he could send someone to rescue him as soon as possible.
Li Tao and the others got together, and they were not as energetic as they were in the morning. Some of them still prepared some food and water, and with this, several of them have also survived until now. But when I thought about it now, it was pitch black outside, and there was no movement at all under the mountain. In the hearts of several people, they were also worried.
There is no one for these dozen or so people, and they have the leisure to consider Liu Qingqing and them again. At the moment, I am in a very difficult situation.
So half an hour later, after the sky outside was completely dark, Li Tao really couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere in the pavilion. When it was time to send someone to check on the chain bridge, he stood up: "I'll go and take a look." ”
Of course, the people next to him didn't want to rob him of this drudgery. He put on his shirt and walked briskly out of the gazebo. At this time, the rain has turned into a drizzling rain. Leaving the pavilion that was also dark and depressing, walking in the uninhabited mountains, Li Tao felt that his mood had become a little lighter.
He felt the mountain wall and walked to the chain bridge, holding a flashlight given by a middle-aged man in his hand. The faint light guided his path.
Unlike the previous man who had found nothing, he had not yet approached the chain bridge when he noticed a faint point of light on the other side of the mountain, still dangling.
All of a sudden, his heart jumped to his throat. Isn't this the legendary ghost fire? He broke out in a cold sweat with fright, and just as he was trying to control his trembling legs and turn around and flee back to the pavilion, the sound of someone shouting came from the other side.
"Hey, is it a man from the mountain?" Because of the mountain, this second chain bridge is not as wide as the first. The mountain roads on both sides are relatively close, so the shouts of the people on the other side are very clear.
Hearing this, Li Tao put his heart back in his stomach. Only then did he realize that the faint point of light might be whose phone screen it was. Immediately after that, there was another wave of excitement in his heart.
Someone had come to their rescue, but soon another voice denied it, how could there be only one point of light? If it was someone from the Park Service, there could not have been only such a little movement.
But no matter what, he quickened his pace and came to the edge of the chain bridge, shaking the flashlight in his hand.
In his still somewhat trembling voice, he shouted to the other side: "Yes, I am trapped in the pavilion on the mountain, are you from the park department, are you here to save us?" Park stewards are repairing the chain bridge below. When they're done, they'll come and build it, and you can go down the mountain." ”
As soon as he heard this, Li Tao's eyes lit up, and he was so happy that he couldn't wait to jump up, but he was still thinking that he was still on the slippery mountain road, so he could only keep shaking the flashlight in his hand to vent his excitement.
He also shouted at the other party: "Thank you, I know, I know." When will they be able to fix the bottom one and come up and fix it?"
The other party thought for a while, was silent for a while, and shouted again: "It will take about an hour or so, you guys wait patiently." ”
