Chapter 238: The Life of the Living
Su Yang had hope in his heart, and he did not hesitate to trek through mountains and rivers and hurried continuously. The pen, the fun, and the pavilion www.biquge.info have lost count of how far they have run, and this hilly area is bigger than he imagined, which is a good thing, and it can become his granary in the future.
"Sue, it's not far." The bearded man was also very positive, because he heard Su Yang say that there might be people from the clan who did not die, and hope was ignited in his heart.
The further they went, the more dangerous the terrain became, and even they had to lean their bodies and use their hands to pass along a rocky slope, so the terrain was destined to be impossible to be raided, and no matter how many people came, they could only pass slowly. There are water stains on the stone face, and there is plenty of water here, which should be too much.
When he passed, there was a scene of a landslide in front of him, and the bearded man pointed ahead and said, "The cave is there." ”
I can't see the location of the cave anymore, it's the place of the landslide, and here you can be sure that the bearded man is not lying, there is indeed such a tribe.
Saving people is like fighting fires, it has been delayed for three days, every minute is crucial, and there are not many people who come, so we should hurry up.
Everyone quickly approached, and after seeing the scene clearly, it was no wonder that the bearded and the elders who died in the sky would feel that the clansmen were dead, and this was basically the whole burial, but Su Yang still felt that there might be survivors.
"Look, it's all dirt, and there's some rocks in it that aren't very big. According to the bearded man, their cave is a stone cave, and I just looked at the Elder's Cave over there and can confirm this. Plus their cave is not short, if it is just buried outside, there are people still alive. "He is right, not nonsense.
In fact, he didn't need to say so much at all, everyone present would obey the order, but it was necessary for everyone to know what they were doing.
He and Xiao Xia, the sextuplets plus Feng Bo, are exactly nine people. There were sixteen archers and bearded men in the spring, and the total number was exactly twenty-five. The warriors of the rock in the past were just that.
He immediately divided the labor, and asked ten people to prepare more firewood, boil some hot water to make tea to relieve the heat, and cook meat, while the rest of the people started with him.
If you follow the normal practice, you must dig a hole below, but Su Yang did the opposite, he came from above, and dug down obliquely to the top of the previous cave entrance, the advantage of this is that it can prevent secondary collapse, and at the same time, with the previous experience of drilling wells, it will be more convenient to implement.
He chose two places at the same time, divided the rest into two teams, and then began to dig the earth, because it was a hole in the top, and the soil was thrown straight down. Gradually, the hole deepened, and in addition to the dirt, some branches, weeds, and rocks were cleared.
A pit is dug by two people in it, and when you are tired, you will change people, and there is no difference from digging a well before, basically you can dig down a meter deep in about an hour, but according to the description of the beard, I am afraid that you have to dig about ten meters to get to the mouth of the hole, if the stones in the hole also collapse, it will take longer.
Tonight, Su Yang plans to start work well, although it may be in vain to do so, but human life is at stake, and there are nearly two hundred people buried below, which is enough for all parties to pay attention to in modern times, and the number of primitive people is so small, how can they give up.
When the digging was almost two meters deep, it was time to start eating, and the sky was darkening, and it was estimated that the time was close to eight o'clock in the evening.
Su Yang asked the ten people who cooked the food to eat first, and then came over to change shifts, take turns to rest, and there was a way to solve it if he couldn't see it at night, before he collected a lot of branches, and every archer carried it, and he could repair the feathers on the arrows at any time.
Now apply a twig to a stick and you can use it as a torch. A load of soil is brought up with rattan, and there are no bamboo products such as dustpans, but they can be replaced by animal skins, and humans are stronger than animals, isn't it the use of labor tools?
As time passed, some fighters could not bear it because they had not stayed up all night before. At the same time, there was a pothole that was scrapped, and I came across a huge rock, and it was useless to try to dig it from the side for a while, and I couldn't spare it.
Su Yang went down to the cave to see it himself, and he could only shake his head to give up, so that more people could rest. The soldiers all had the experience of keeping vigils, but they barely survived the night.
He left five men to dig another hole, while the rest went to rest, changing shifts every hour or so. The length of this time is measured by a stick, and the depth of the digging exceeds the stick, and the person is replaced.
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he went to sleep for a while first, and let Chunguo wake him up. Who knew that when he opened his eyes, the sky was already clear, well, it was the age of snooze, and it had nothing to do with the strength of willpower!
"How's it going?"
"The bearded man said that he was almost at the entrance of the cave, and the bearded man did not rest." A warrior replied.
Su Yang hurriedly got up to check, good guy, the hole is already super deep, and the soldiers are also awake. But there really isn't a need for so many people, and there is no shortage of meat, so just let those who haven't started work continue to rest.
The hard work paid off, and after a while, the bearded voice came from the pit below, "I have dug the mouth of our tribe's cave." ”
"Let me go down and have a look." Su Yang said and put the rattan on his waist.
Xiao Xia said loudly at this time: "Su, I have divined, it is not good or bad." ”
"Man will conquer heaven!" He didn't explain what he meant. Strictly speaking, he is a theist, but he believes in good and not bad, praising the gods when he encounters good things, and saying that man can overcome the will of heaven when he encounters bad things.
After looking at it, I found that the cave was indeed a landslide, but the situation was not so bad, the falling stones were not big, as long as there was time, it could be cleaned up slowly, but it was the fourth day since the accident, is it still too late?
"Is there anyone in there?" Su Yang shouted, and the bearded man and the two warriors next to him also shouted, but unfortunately they didn't respond at all.
"No matter, keep digging in and get the stones out. If there were living people inside, they would definitely be trying to find a way to clean up the stones. He felt that his guess must be correct.
At the same time, he also prepared to let Feng Bo go back to the tribe, one was to report safety, and the other was to let Pabhu's team bring relief materials, and the most important thing was medicine.
Time passed quickly, and when the sun was high until noon, a movement was heard in the cave, and it was the sound of the cave.
Su Yang shouted, it was not in vain, and the soldiers also saw hope, especially the bearded man who frantically cleaned up the stones, and after a while, there was a shouting from inside, and he communicated with the bearded man.
"Sue, you're right, my people are still alive, half of them are still alive." The bearded man was extremely excited, and he really didn't need to die in heaven now.
"Good, good!"
Su Yang is also happy, saving people's lives is better than building a seventh-level floating slaughter, he doesn't believe in Buddhism, because the Buddha has not been born yet. But what is being done now is living human lives, and what is more important than human lives, at least at this moment.
An hour later, the inside and outside of the cave were opened, and one by one the weak primitive people were pulled up along the hole, bathed in the sun, which was the light of life.
