Chapter Twenty-Nine: Rescue

The next morning, I woke up and found that the rain had stopped, although it was still cloudy, it should not rain anymore, I heard a sound in the kitchen, and saw that my mother was no longer there, and I should be cooking.

"Mom......."

"Hey......." Hearing Youli's shout, Youli's mother walked in with a bowl and chopsticks, and the hand holding the chopsticks kept stirring the eggs in the bowl, and her face was still a little pale, but it seemed that she had recovered a lot.

Youli got up and wanted to go down to the ground, look into the ground and see that her mother was wearing boots. "Mom, why are you up, is the fever gone?"

The reasonable mother smiled, "Okay, okay, the fever is gone, are you my mother or am I your mother?" Be careful about seeing old age. ”

"Am I not worried about you?" Youli also put on rain boots and went to the ground, and found that the water in the ground was up to his ankles, and when he went down to the ground, he looked out, it was a small pond, and the barns and walls were relatively low, and now they were all underwater buildings, and they were all lost seventy or eighty centimeters.

Youli went into the kitchen to help her mother cook, but fortunately, there was a gas tank at home, not only the power went out, but the stove was flooded, and there was no gas. ”

"Our family is okay, the foundation is also high and the water recedes quickly, and other people's homes are uncertain, especially in the west, it is estimated that anyone can have no roof."

The reasonable mother is really right, when it was almost noon, the water in their house receded a lot, at least to the threshold, and now the mother and daughter are holding a basin and splashing water outside, their house is the easternmost part of Baichang County, and it is also the highest place in Baichang County. At that time, I bought a house here, firstly, because it was close to the school, and secondly, because the house was relatively cheap.

"Is there anyone at home?" Since there are only two women in the family, the door of the house is locked all year round, so the people outside can only knock on the door and shout inside.

Youli wiped his sweat and walked to the gate, "Who?" ”

"We're from the fire brigade to find out what's going on."

Outside the door was a man in army green half-sleeved camouflage pants and big black boots, his face covered with muddy water, and he couldn't tell how old he was.

Seeing that the man opened the door with reason, he smiled and leaked a mouthful of big white teeth: "Hello, may I ask if there is any trouble at home?" ”

"It's not a problem, it's just that there is water everywhere, and it is estimated that the whole county is like this now." Reasonably, waiting, waiting for the other party to not speak, "Is there anything else?" ”

The man hesitated "That, that....... ”

"Which one?"

This is another man coming from outside, and he patted the person before, "Stupid, you have it." Then he said to Youli, "We want to borrow your house to install people, after all, there are only some houses in the county that can live on your side, of course you have the right to refuse." ”

Youli shouted into the courtyard, "Mom...... come out." Then he said to the two men, "Ask my mother, she is the head of the household." ”

She knew that her mother would definitely agree, so she went into the house and locked the cabinets and the like.

As expected, the mother quickly agreed, and the two men took the initiative to come in to help clean up when they heard that there was still water in the house, because the conditions of the family were better, so they would be used to arrange the wounded.

The two firefighters came first called Yin Fengshun and then came over called Shi Qiang, washed their faces and found that they were quite young, only in their twenties, and after eating a few bites, the two left, saying that they were going to save people, and someone would send the wounded over later.

After a while, some of the wounded were brought in, along with the doctors who had been brought in for a short time. After a while, the number of people outside the door gradually increased, and because the water outside was still very deep, most of them were concentrated on a large slope to the east of the house, and they sat on the ground with some random things.

Youli and his mother cooked a lot of ginger soup and sent it over, and there were some porridge cooked with white rice and millet, so that everyone could cushion their stomachs, and the neighbors and their families were also lightly affected.

Youli wore rain boots and sent ginger soup and porridge to the west slope again and again, but there were too many monks and less porridge. Looking at the unkempt and disheartened people, my heart is sour and uncomfortable, if I had reminded everyone before, would anyone believe that I was prepared? If you save a lot of people because of your own reminders, will you really be damned?

"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet."

Following the sound of looking over, Youli saw a man in camouflage uniform standing on a high place holding a loudspeaker and shouting, "Everyone, pay attention, pay attention, now there is such a thing I want to tell you." Now there is a child who has been swept away by the flood and is stuck between two walls, because the gap is relatively small, we can't get in, is there anyone who can help? Everyone has an idea. ”

At this time, a woman next to the person holding the horn knelt on the ground ordinarily, "Save my child, he is only two and a half years old, help." The woman was almost out of breath crying, her voice was already hoarse, and it was estimated that the child had been stuck for a while.

I had an ideal, and I wanted to walk over, "Do you think I'm going to try it?" ”

The man with the horn looked at Youli, "You should be able to enter, but aren't you still a child, no." ”

The woman on the ground also said, "Child, sister, thank you, but sister can't put you in for her own child, how can you be thin and small, you can't stand the cold water at all." ”

The woman's words made Youli look at her differently, this is not a selfish person, "Sister, I heard you say that the place is also thin and small, and you can enter." ”

The woman began to cry again, "What can I do, my child?" ”

There was no one around to speak, they were the ones who had been rescued from the flood, and the fear of the flood was not stronger than at this time, and they did not want to go back.

"Let me go, I can."

The man with the horn looked at Youli, "This is not child's play. ”

"I think if I can't save the child, no one else can save it, there is no time to delay, a two-and-a-half-year-old child has been soaked in water for too long and there is no need to save it."

"But." The man was still hesitating.

"I have been practicing martial arts since I was a child, and my body is much healthier and more flexible than ordinary people.

The man showed a surprised expression: "Are you Hu Youli?" Walk...... Come with me...... "Hu Youli was too famous in Baichang County some time ago, even if I don't know what her name is, but I know that there is a little girl who jumped out of the car to save people in No. 3 Middle School.

The woman on the ground also stood up and wanted to follow, but Youli stopped her, "You have a good rest, someone has to take care of the child when he is rescued." ”
