Chapter XVI Rescue Operations

"Where's Locke, also buried?" Qi Gefei asked. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The other party is the head of the miners he appointed, how can he not be on the scene at this time.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a man shouting, "I'm here, I'm here." Turning his head, Locke came running over in a sweat.

"I didn't promote you to let you be absent from work at will, and deduct half a month's salary." Qi Gefei looked at him obviously as if he had just come out of the house, and said unhappily.

"I'm ......" Locke was about to explain, but stopped again, and said honestly, "Yes, I'm very sorry." ”

"Save people." Qi Gefei said: "Every worker is my precious treasure, and I don't want to lose anyone unless necessary." ”

"I do my best." Locke gritted his teeth and made such a promise.

As he spoke, the gravel at the entrance of the cave was cleared, and it could be seen that the original passage had been completely buried by the mud, and everyone was in despair, and Locke's face was dark. Saving people is as simple as digging out a passage. But the difficulty is how to dig, if only the hole has collapsed, it would be fine, but now it seems that the entire passage has been sealed.

According to the escaped workers, the trapped people were at a mining site about 20 meters underground, and in order to save them, they had to dig a new 20-meter passage, and it had to be fast, and the air below could not support it for long. Of course, when those people are not dead.

Therefore, the rescue not only consumes a lot of manpower and money, but the more critical problem is that it is impossible to determine the life and death of the trapped people, and it is possible to exhaust all the energy, in fact, the people below have already died.

The old housekeeper, as a professional back-erpent, also consciously stood up and suggested: "My lord, if it collapses to this extent, there are many people underground, and it is not worth spending a lot of time and money on rescue." If you have mercy, you can open a new mine next to it, so that you can explore new mining sites and slowly approach the trapped people and get their bodies so that they can meet their families. ”

Some of the miners began to cry quietly, and there were their relatives and friends below. Although the old butler's words were not good, they were also a long-standing practice. The collapse of the mine is seen as a symbol of bad luck, and many mine owners even seal off the collapse site forever, leaving the victims' families without even getting their bodies.

"What about your opinion?" Qi Gefei asked Locke.

Locke thought for a moment and replied helplessly: "It's hard, it's very hard." The entrance to the cave was so small that it took at least two full days to dig with the strength of the workers, and the people below couldn't hold out for so long, or even die a long time ago. ”

"How long do you think the people down there will last?"

"It's about half a day, mainly because I can't breathe."

"Understood." Qi Gefei nodded: "Liya, I'll leave it to you." ”

"Yes!" Ria began to remove the light armor from her body.

Locke was dumbfounded, what does this mean? Let a gold-level warrior dig a hole to save people? It's not crazy, if you catch up with the second collapse, maybe even the gold level will have to be put into it. It's just for a few lowly miners, is it really necessary to do this?

Others were also talking.

"What is this for?"

"Looks like I want the guard woman to go down and save people."

"We can't do it, what's the use of letting that woman go?"

"I heard that woman is a gold-level warrior."

"What? Gold can still fight hard for a few miners, you are stupid. ”

"Anyway, it doesn't matter if it's gold-level or not, but such a beautiful woman, if I am definitely reluctant to let her drill into the ground."

"Bah, I don't look at your dog, you just let the stone hit your head!"

Liya quickly took off the light armor on her body and wore only the cotton lining of the swordsman's suit, revealing her delicate body. She nodded at Qi Gefei: "Master, I'm going down." ”

"Well, save as many people as you can." Journeymen are invaluable, and for the sake of more energy, he doesn't want to lose them yet.

A cloud of golden light appeared on Liya's body, and she picked up the shovel and began to dig.

"It's really gold!"

"Is the owner really willing to use the gold level to save us?"

"There is salvation, there is salvation!"

The workers cheered, but were stopped by Locke, who was afraid of causing a second collapse: "Shut up for me, and stay where you are, who dares to make a noise, don't blame Lao Tzu for not caring about it." ”

The worker understood the truth, and quickly quieted down, staring firmly at the entrance of the cave.

Locke looked at Qi Gefei's back with admiration, although this person had a stinky mouth, he was full of courage. Let the gold-level powerhouse go to save the miners, he had to say a word of obedience.

The power of the gold level was indeed strong, and the thick soil was cut like cheese in front of Liya, and as the large piles of dirt were transported out, the original passage was gradually revealed.

Locke glanced at it, his face changed, and he whispered to Qi Gefei: "My lord, there are traces of man-made destruction on the support pillar of the passage, it should be ......"

Qi Gefei interrupted him: "Save people first, and talk about the rest later." ”

"Yes!"

Liya dug deeper and deeper, and the light gradually diminished until she was no longer visible. Everyone's hearts hung again, and now that the passage is good, I don't know if the trapped people are still alive.

There were more than 200 people in the mine, but they were quiet at the moment, all staring closely at the entrance of the cave, expecting and praying.

Suddenly, a sound sounded, and then a man covered in darkness stretched out his hand: "Please, anyone can do it, pull me!" ”

"It's a dirt dog, save him!" Everyone was pleasantly surprised.

"Shut up!" Locke suppressed his voice: "Come two people, light hands and feet." ”

Two big men stepped forward and pulled the earth dog out of the hole.

"What's going on, are all people alive?" Locke asked eagerly.

"Alive, all alive." The earth dog finally took a breath: "Fortunately, there are fast rocks on the mining site, and a small space was erected when it collapsed, so we were not buried alive." Originally, everyone thought that they were dead, but they didn't expect a woman with golden light to suddenly come out, and when I asked, I found out that it was the owner who sent us to save us. She said that time was urgent, and she stayed inside just in case, so let's get out first. ”

The miners took a breath in unison, and suddenly felt a swelling in their hearts, and many people secretly rubbed their eyes.

"Well, in that case, we can't trouble Lord Liya. Hurry, the people who come out after the pick-up, it is dangerous to stay below for an extra minute. ”

"Yes!" The miners lowered their voices in response, moving quickly.

One, two, three...... Twelve, thirteen. More and more people have been rescued, and everyone has seen hope for victory. But suddenly there was a muffled sound from the cave, followed by a large cloud of dust.

"What's going on?"

"Collapsed again?"

"Then what to do, there are still people down there."

"Save people, save people!"

The workers' hearts sank in an uproar, and the most feared thing still happened, a second collapse, which was almost inevitable.

"Quiet!" Qi Gefei scolded: "Do what you should do, believe me, and believe in Liya." ”

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you. Locke came out and whispered, "Are you deaf? Stay honest with me! Do you think your loved ones are down there? Riya-sama, as a gold-level warrior, is also down there! No one is afraid, you are afraid of an egg! Whoever wants to shout again, no need for the owner to do it, Lao Tzu personally abolished him! ”

yes, even the gold-level adults are still down there, so it's going to be fine. With that in mind, the workers fell silent and continued to stare at the dark opening.

For thirty minutes, no one showed up. The workers began to whisper, and the worst-case plan rose in their hearts, but Qi Gefei remained calm, without the slightest worry on his face.

Locke glanced at him again, this calming kung fu was by no means something ordinary people could do.

Suddenly, a cough came from the cave, followed by cries for help.

"Quick, help!" Locke made an immediate decision, and several people immediately stepped forward and pulled out a person.

"Are the people down there okay? What was that loud bang just now? ”

The man drank a large bowl of water before he said, "The boulder above my head just now fell, but fortunately, the lady who came here resisted it with her own body, but the original hole was half suppressed, and a few of us were left to dig for a long time before we could get out." ”

Locke hurriedly asked, "Is Lord Naria okay?" ”

When the man heard this, he immediately said with teary eyes: "Is Liya the name of that lady?" She's a good person, she's a great good person, no, she's simply a goddess! ”

"Don't talk nonsense, tell me how Lord Liya is now."

"Yes, yes!" The man wiped away his tears: "Lord Liya resisted the boulder and said that it was okay, let's go quickly." But we all saw that she was injured, her shoulder was covered in blood, and half of her body was soaked. We're not worth it, it's really not worth it, please the owner, you let Liya come out. The rest of the brothers don't blame you, they all thank you for the rest of their lives! As he spoke, he kowtowed to Qi Gefei.

"yes, got it!" Qi Gefei replied simply: "Continue to rescue!" ”

"My lord, let Liya-sama come out."

"Yes, our cheap life is not worth it."

"Lord Liya is a good person, she is still so young, she shouldn't die down there."

This time, the other miners also pleaded.

Qi Gefei was unmoved: "It's not your turn to teach me to do things." As for the overseer, whoever says more, will clean up for me! ”

“…… Be. ”
