Chapter 13: Rescue
Darkness, boundless darkness......
Hou Lao Er opened his eyes with difficulty, his head was a little wooden, and it took a while to understand that he was now in the well, he tried to move, a tingling pain came, his right arm was numb by the pressure, and his left leg was also unconscious, fortunately, his left hand was fine, he tried his best to take out the explosion-proof mobile phone and looked at the time, it was already half past ten in the morning, calculated the time, came down at eight o'clock last night, it was twelve hours, trying to find a signal, no, in addition to tinnitus in the ears, there was a dripping sound ticking out of nowhere, I couldn't hear the slightest sound, and the nasal cavity and throat were also bursts of fire, and the air mixed with dust was inhaled into the lungs and turned around and exhaled, like an old-fashioned bellows, snorting and snorting, fortunately, after an explosion, most of the toxic gases in the mine were burned, otherwise I would have greeted Old Man Yan a long time ago.

I tried to move again, my right arm and left leg were still unconscious, Hou Lao Er sighed, it seems that Lao Tzu is going to explain here, he smiled bitterly, picked up his mobile phone and edited his last words, "Mom, my son is not good...... "Mom, my son has made a decision, go down to see my father, the old man must be very lonely for more than ten years, that is, ...... It is...... Mom, you have to be strong......" In the end, Hou Lao Er still deleted it, and only wrote, "China Construction Bank 665353, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China 890812" and then put down the phone and looked ahead blankly.
"Knock...... Boom...... "Knock ......" Hou Lao Er faintly heard as if there was a knocking sound, he tried to open his mouth to shout, his throat was hoarse as if he was about to burst into flames, but the last sound he screamed out couldn't even be heard by himself, he raised his uninjured left hand and knocked on the ground with a piece of coal, fluttering, and the top of his head was flowing down with broken coal, and he was trying to call for help, Hou Lao Er suddenly felt a force pulling him outward, followed by a masked person suddenly appeared in front of him......
Su Wang put on the ambulance equipment prepared by Brother Tai, wore a gas mask on his head, glanced at the underground distribution map drawn by Brother Tai again, and then carefully folded the drawings and put them in his pocket, and teleported into the passage.
Not far in front of the passage is the elevator for workers to go up and down, from which about 400 meters down is the passage of the coal mining area in the D area, fortunately, the passage has not collapsed, the ambulance team is urgently dredging the collapse area, the ambulance team with masks is working nervously and orderly, Su Wang smoothly took the elevator down to the passage of the D area, walked to the collapse area to detect the front with his greatest ability, Su Wang's detection ability can detect the range of about 50 meters as the origin of himself, It is indeed a bit unsightly for the underground where the coal mining distance is several kilometers at every turn, but he is willing to try even a thousandth of the possibility.
Soon, he detected the existence of someone about sixty meters in front of him, but because he couldn't detect the specific appearance of that person beyond his detection distance, Su Wangcheng took a deep breath and pulled the muscles of his right arm tightly, and then he left the place and disappeared all at once.
Hou Lao Er was stunned.
The man in front of him who miraculously appeared in a mask brought him more than a shock, if it wasn't for the wrong timing, he would definitely say "it!" Seeing that he was stunned and speechless, the mysterious man took out a bottle of mineral water from his body, unscrewed the lid and handed it to him, and asked in a suppressed voice, "What's the situation below?" ”
Hou Lao Er drank most of the bottle in one go, and gasped for a long time before he said, "There are two coal mining channels, there are thirty-three people on the inclined shaft of No. 1 well, and twenty people on the Pingtong side of the No. 2 well, and the explosion should be on the Pingtong side...... How did you get in? ”
The mysterious man did not answer his question, and asked while helping him move the coal that was pressing on his body, "Has the inclined shaft collapsed?" ”
“…… There shouldn't be," Hou Lao Er took a breath of cool air and hissed, "The inclined shaft is still below, and the distance is relatively far. ”
The mysterious man moved him to safety and nodded to him, "You're safe, I'll go ahead and have a look." As he spoke, he put the emergency oxygen mask he had brought with him on the flat ground not far from him, and left.
Watching the mysterious man leave, Hou Lao Er finally didn't hold back, and said, ", it's amazing." ”。
Su Wang continued to walk forward for about ten meters before he was blocked again, and after probing again, he teleported into Pingtong. After continuous experiments, Su once tried to teleport himself, as long as the teleportation target can't move himself, the ability will teleport himself over, he only knows that Hou Lao Er is fat, but he didn't expect to be so fat that he can't move himself, too, a weight of one hundred and fifty kilograms is not something anyone can move.
Taking a few deep breaths, relieving the discomfort caused by the instantaneous crossing of space, Su Wang's right arm disappeared after pulling it hard, and then appeared at a distance of about thirty meters in front of the pothole, and after traveling about eight hundred meters repeatedly, he quickly sensed the life fluctuations in front of him, and probed it, and there were thirteen people with signs of life, but the other seven people did not move again for a long time, Su Wang carefully probed again, and determined that these five people were indeed dead.
Although the gas concentration of Pingtong was alleviated after the explosion, but due to the destruction of the ventilator, it was much thicker than Hou Laoer's, and several miners who still had vital signs were also unconscious, Su Wang trembled the sore muscles all over his body, and it was the first time that he used his abilities with such intensity, and before he could rescue someone, he couldn't do it first, he smiled bitterly, and still thought about things simply.
Fortunately, the miners were relatively lean, and there were no fat people like Hou Laoer, so he decided to move the miners from the coal mining pit with the highest gas concentration to the outside passage first, and then make plans, as for the five miners who had died, they still had to wait for the ambulance team to come in before making plans. took out the leftover steamed buns that Hou Lao Er ate last night from his bag, ate them in three bites of water, and recovered a little strength, Su Wang continued to work.
After a short period of working in a bar after dropping out of school, Su Wang, who was originally strong, has joined the vast team of sub-health, but fortunately, the previous foundation is still there, Su Wang started with the slowest breathing worker, and it took about ten minutes to move the fainting workers to a relatively spacious passage, and looked at the workers lying on the ground horizontally, Su Wang gritted his teeth and decided to move them to the relatively safer Hou Lao Er, according to Hou Lao Er, although there were many people on the other side of the inclined well, But it should not be a big problem, the site of the explosion is here, and the inclined shaft is affected at most, and people's lives should still be guaranteed.
Using the detection ability for a long time, coupled with the dizziness caused by continuous passage through space, his head was like an explosion, at this time, even his right arm was swollen and unable to lift up due to the use of teleportation, if it wasn't for his hand holding on to the cave wall and trying to stand firm, Su Wang knew that he had been on the road all night and the grain of rice had not entered, his physical strength had been seriously overdrawn, although he was wearing a mask, he still inhaled a lot of poisonous gas, shook his head and forced himself to stay awake, Su Wang pulled a worker's foot, pulled his right arm hard, and disappeared in place, After a few repetitions, he appeared in front of Hou Laoer.
Hou Lao Er was powerless to complain about the mysterious man who appeared inexplicably, but said to Su Wang while struggling to move his fat body, "You save people first, I'll watch here." After speaking, he put on the first-aid oxygen mask that Su Wang had just thrown on the ground, and Su Wang couldn't take care of his breath and teleported away.
By the time everyone in Pingtong moved to the passage where Hou Lao Er was, more than forty minutes had passed, and Su Wang's thinking at this time had become sluggish, just relying on instinct to save people, Hou Lao Er saw that he was getting weaker and weaker, although he knew that if he rescued people one minute earlier, he would have more protection, and maybe a life would be saved, but he still said to Su Wang, "Brother, rest, drink saliva." As he spoke, he handed the remaining half of the bottle of water to Su Wang.
Su Wang's tired hands couldn't lift up, and he couldn't open the cap of the bottle after trying a few times, Hou Lao Er took it, grabbed the bottle with his left hand, bit the bottle cap with his teeth, turned it around a few times, spit out the bottle cap, and handed it to Su Wang. Su Wang tried his best to control his hands that were trembling due to the detachment, and drank a small sip, but the others were spilled, and he was panting for breath, and now he didn't need to deliberately pinch his throat, his lungs had a strong burning sensation caused by inhaling excessive harmful gases, and his voice became hoarse, "Ping...... ...... in Pingtong All of them have been rescued, and the remaining seven people are ...... He's dead...... Call...... Call...... ......, I'll go to the inclined well and have a look......" he said as he moved step by step in the direction of the inclined shaft. Hou Lao Er opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't stop him.
After using all his strength to cross the two collapse zones, Su Wang closed his eyes and concentrated on probing ahead when he encountered the third collapse, and soon he found the thirty-three people who were trapped, all gathered in a refuge room, seeing that everyone was safe, Su Wang leaned against the cave wall and sat down, touched his pockets and remembered that he had left the cigarette and lighter outside when he came in, in this closed and quiet space, except for the constant tinnitus in his ears and the occasional dripping of water droplets, he couldn't hear any sound, and the headlamp was still on, But the vision is getting more and more blurred, Su Wang knows that his physical strength has reached the limit, and it is impossible to rescue the people inside, fortunately, there is no shortage of dry food and drinking water in the refuge, and Su Wang saw that everyone was wearing masks, and the ventilators inside were also running normally, and there was no gas poisoning, after continuing to observe for a while, Su Wang finally decided to go back, otherwise once the physical strength was overdrawn, he would also explain here.
When he returned to the passage where Hou Lao Er was, there were already two workers with minor injuries who woke up, but they were very weak, and when they saw Su Wang appear, they thought that the rescue team had come in, and they struggled to get up, and they were pressed down by Hou Lao Er, who had been taking care of them, "This is our worker, from the No. 2 inclined shaft." "The coal mine has just resumed production, and a few workers have been recruited temporarily, and the No. 1 Pingtong is all old and new, and everyone can't recognize each other, Su Wang gasped and said, "It's okay on the side of the inclined shaft, everyone is hiding in the refuge room, and the food and drinking water are relatively sufficient, so they should be able to survive the rescue." After a sigh of relief, he said, "I have observed more, and there is no sign of water penetration." ”
In the process of coal mine production, there may be surface water hazards caused by surface collapse or geological structures forming fissures and passages entering the mine, water accumulation hazards in goafs and abandoned roadways, and original rock water hazards in original karst caves, fissures and other structures. Because the geological structure or mining makes the goaf and the water storage body communicate, a large number of water bodies directly enter the goaf, and at the same time, a large amount of surface parallel goods suddenly rainfall into the underground, through the fissures, karst caves, abandoned roadways, permeable layers, surface outcrops and goafs, roadways, mining working faces are connected, so that a large number of water bodies enter the operation site through the goaf or directly enter the operation site will cause water inrush accidents, that is, we often say water permeability accidents.
The cracks in the cave wall caused by the explosion are very likely to cause water inrush, although Su Wang does not know much about this aspect, but he often watches the news, he still knows that every gas explosion may cause a water inrush accident, just that sentence is said to Hou Laoer, Hou Laoer is not worried about these, Hu Tuhao has always attached great importance to safety production, the drainage system of the mine is spent a lot of money to ask the Germans to do, and the incidence of water inrush accidents is basically zero.
Su Wang nodded to the two workers and said that Hou Lao Er did not lie to them, took off the headlamp and held it with his hand, walked to the collapse point and probed the front, the speed of the rescue was very fast, the original collapse point of more than 60 meters has been opened up about 20 meters after more than an hour of emergency dredging, Su Wang estimated that he touched it and said to the three people who were still awake, "At most, the passage will be opened in two hours, and the ambulance outside is already in place, and everyone will be rescued soon." Then he took advantage of the opportunity of the headlamp to teleport down and moved out of the passage.
