Chapter 037: Natural Disaster
Now the whole team is a mess, such a tyrannical weather abrupt change, many people don't say they have seen it, even if they haven't heard of it......
The weakness of long-term lack of discipline is undoubtedly revealed at this moment. The soldier couldn't find the commander, and the commander didn't bother to pay attention to the soldiers. One man took the lead, and the group behind them was all in disarray. A nest of peaks running around. There was a panic and ran directly to the bottom of the cliff. Before the mudslide came, he himself was looking for a dead end.
Link had been thinking about stabilizing the troops, but when he glanced at the dark clouds in the sky, his mind changed immediately. What he regrets most now is that he didn't listen to Hu Wei's words earlier and ordered the troops to rush back, but when he found that even the person who carried the sedan chair for him was gone, he didn't have time to regret it anymore.
It's important to run for your life now, so let's run.
Everyone was running for their lives, but Hu Wei didn't run away at this time, because he knew that if it was a mess, he wouldn't be able to run away. Hu Wei knows very well that although he exercises hard every day, due to the congenital relationship, his body is strong and strong, and he is not as good as the people here.
If you want to get out of this disaster alive, the only way is to find Zhu Daneng and them. Only by being with them will it be possible to get out of danger.
Hu Wei leaned tightly against the side of the mountain at this time, and his eyes kept looking for it in the crowd. He had been paying attention to this aspect since the beginning of the crowd, but he had never seen Zhu Daneng and them pass by, so he knew that Zhu Daneng and them were still behind.
As the crowd continued to disperse to both ends, Hu Wei finally saw Zhu Daneng and them. What made Hu Wei happy was that Zhu Daneng and Hou San didn't run around, they all stood against the side of the mountain like themselves.
"Zhu Daneng, Hou San, you all come here, hurry up. Hu Wei opened his throat and shouted.
Hou San's eyes were sharp, and he was the first to see Hu Wei: "It's the captain, the captain is over there, so I said that the captain must not have run." ”
Zhu Daneng strode towards Hu You: "Don't fucking nonsense, the captain told us to come over, quickly." ”
"Hmph, I'm not deaf, can't you hear me? Hou San habitually replied, seeing that the brothers were gone, so he had to follow behind.
As soon as Zhu Daneng ran in front of Hu Wei, he immediately asked, "Captain, what should we do now." ”
After Hu Wei successfully predicted the sudden change in the weather, the people in the team looked at Hu Wei differently. used to be respectful to Hu Wei, but now there is a faint hint of fear.
"Don't say so much. Zhu Daneng, you take a few brothers and carry the sedan chair left by the general. ”
"Yes, Captain. ”
Zhu Daneng didn't ask Hu Wei what he wanted the sedan chair to do, and without hesitation, he took people to do what Hu Wei said. The other brothers didn't have any doubts, because they all believed that Hu Wei would definitely be able to put them in danger.
After Zhu Daneng ran away, Hu Wei was not idle, he took Hou San and a few to a place that he had already looked at before, and said: "Hou San, you guys come over quickly, dig up this place with me, hurry up." Don't just use your hands, use knives, use daggers. Whether we survive or not depends on it. ”
"Captain, the sedan chair has been carried over. ”
"Well, well, Lalei, your hands are more skillful, you take the two brothers to open the sedan chair. Focus on getting the shoulder off, and be careful not to hurt the main body.
Zhu Daneng, you can find some sticks of wood and come back. Look for those big and sturdy ones closely.
The rest of the brothers, dig a little deeper. Hurry, everybody, hurry up. ”
"Hou San, don't dig there, just dig here. ”
"Captain, that's all I can find, can I do it?"
Zhu Daneng ran back with some flagpoles and guns, and some poles for building tents.
"It's a little small, and it can only be settled. You find a way to tie them up with five or six sticks, and the tie is strong. That's not enough, go find more. ”
"Captain, the sedan chair has been dismantled. ”
Larley also completed the task very quickly.
"Good. ”
Hu Wei glanced at the sedan chair that had been dismantled and said, "You, Liardo, and Seedorf together, bring over the poles that Zhu Daneng had tied, and strengthen these places." yes, that's it, give me a top, don't let this place shake. ”
After Hu Wei finished instructing Lalei, he immediately shouted: "Wait three, wait three." ”
Hou San ran over with a muddy face: "Captain, what am I doing?" ”
Hu Wei pointed to a big stone on the top and said, "You can find a way to get to this top, try to smooth out an angle between there and there." Make it as smooth as possible.
"Yes. ”
"Boom. ”
There was another loud bang, the sky flashed purple for an instant, and the rain began to fall. The word 'down' alone is not enough to describe the rain at this time, and perhaps the word 'down' is more revealing.
"Hou San, you can't do it. ”
Hu Wei shouted below, the rain was too heavy, although it was not far away, it was difficult for Hu Wei to see the situation above.
"No problem, don't worry, Captain. ”
Hou San's words were fluttering, as if he came from a far away.
"Be careful, come down as soon as you're done. ”
"Brethren, let's work harder. Gama, go get the palanquin in. ”
"Quick, everyone, hurry up, we're running out of time. ”
"Zhu Daneng, you're here"
Hu Wei commanded in the rain with his throat in his voice, he wanted to dig a hole enough to avoid this catastrophe before the mudslide formed.
The place Hu Wei chose was already optimistic about it before. This is an abrupt part of the mountain, and the whole shape is somewhat like an eaves. Hu Wei is now leading people to find a way to expand and strengthen this 'eaves', in the hope that it can block the impact for everyone when the mudslide comes.
"Captain, no, I heard a rumbling sound in the distance, and the mudslide seemed to be coming down. Hou San jumped off the top.
"Okay, got it, everyone hurry in and squeeze in as much as you can. Zhu Daneng don't care about that, come in"
"Wow. ”
The moment Zhu Daneng ran into the hole, the mudslide outside had already rushed in.
Hou San said fearfully: "Good girl, Zhu Daneng, I thought you were washed away." ”
Zhu Daneng squeezed in and said, "Don't worry, I won't die if you die." Captain, do you think we can survive this time? ”
Hu Wei's eyes were staring at the outside, although it didn't make much sense to look at it now.
Hu Wei said: "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." This time it really depends on God's will. ”
"Captain, you said that the general and the other brothers"
"There is more than one bad luck. ”
Hu Wei gave four words, and then said nothing. There is not even a place to hide on either side of the road, with cliffs on one side and mudslides rolling down the mountain on the other, and the danger can be imagined. Of course, this is not a certain death, this road is so long, and it is impossible for mudslides to hit it all indiscriminately. It's just that those who are lucky enough to survive are basically the masters of the ancestral tombs.
Thinking of the nearly 1,000 people who came, few of them survived, and everyone's hearts sank. But they didn't have time to grieve for their fallen colleagues, and a voice reminded them that they didn't necessarily have to be survivors.
"Click. ”
Hu Yu asked, "What is the sound?"
"Captain, the top is cracked. ”
"It's not good, find a way to strengthen it, you can't make it bigger!"
"Captain, it's not good, it's also open here. ”
"No matter what method you use, you must resist it"
I don't know how long it took, maybe a century, maybe a little longer, but the rain finally stopped. The clouds cleared, the sun reappeared in the sky, and everything seemed to have returned to its previous state, except for the winding road, which had been almost completely washed away by the mudslide.
Hou San raised his head from the muddy water: "Captain, are we dead?"
"Ahh ”
Hu Wei spat out a large piece of mud from his mouth, and was just about to speak, when his face suddenly changed and shouted: "Everyone, run, this place is going to collapse." ”
"Boom, boom, boom"
Makeshift shelter, one last moan of pain.
Hu Wei counted the number of people, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay, all of them are alive." ”
The road has been blocked by mudslides, and the mountains on the right have been reduced by the heavy rain.
"Captain, what do we do now?"
Zhu Daneng's gaze retracted from a distance. His mind was in chaos now, and he didn't know what else he could say other than to ask the question.
"Find a way to go back to Dingsi first, and talk about the rest later. ”
Hu Wei and the other nine survivors walked on the road when they were walking with loose sand and gravel, one foot deep and one foot shallow. The further they went, the more they realized how lucky they were to be alive.
Along the way, you can see human corpses, horse corpses and mud and rocks mixed together. It's better if the whole body is buried, and there are places where there is a hand or a head in the mud, which is called horror.
"Ugh. ”
Larley was the first to vomit. After that, one after another, I vomited several more. These people died so tragically that even they who had experienced the Primal Pole Battlefield couldn't see it.
Hu Wei also vomited, but he held back. He kept telling himself in his heart that now he was the core of the whole team and had to face it strongly. If you can't even endure this, and you will go to the battlefield in the future, how will you survive.
"Captain, there seems to be another living one, I just saw him move. ”
"Yes, I saw it too. That man, that man, seems to be a general. ”
Hu Wei looked at the man and looked a little like Link. Although half of his body was buried in the mud, his upper body was still outside.
Hu Wei said: "Zhu Daneng, you go up with me to have a look." The others stayed where they were. ”
"Yes, Captain. ”
Link's place was very dangerous, just over half a foot away from the cliff, and if it rained a little longer, or if the momentum was stronger, Link would definitely have no bones left at this time.
Hu Wei and Zhu Daneng approached Link very carefully. It was a short stretch of road, and they walked for nearly ten minutes.
As the distance got closer, Hu Wei and the two of them could already see Link's face very clearly.
Zhu Daneng said: "Captain, it's really a general." ”
"Well, you stand still, pay attention to the movement around you, I'll take a look. ”
"Captain, be careful. ”
Zhu Daneng looked at the bottomless cliff with some concern.
"Got it. ”
The ground was covered with wet mud, and Hu Wei walked very carefully, and finally came to Link's side.
"General, General, Link, Link"
Hu Wei screamed a few times, but seeing that Link didn't react at all, he unbuttoned Link's shirt and inserted his hand into it. Suddenly, Hu Wei felt that under Link's heart, something hard seemed to be chrome to him, and it felt like a treasure box or something. Hu Wei's heart moved, his hand flipped, and put the box into the ring. Touching Link's heart again, I faintly felt a heartbeat.
"Not dead yet. Hu Wei said secretly in his heart.
Just as Hu Wei was secretly thinking about whether to save Link, Link suddenly opened his eyes and grabbed Hu Wei tightly with both hands.
"Hu Wei, save me"
Link only forced himself to say this, and passed out again.
"Save him!"
Hu Wei had also considered the pros and cons at this time. Link is the brother-in-law of the Legion Commander Sumendal, and although he is incompetent, his identity is there. Saving him will certainly bring great benefits to himself.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can't bring back the living ones in the end, the dead ones are used well, which is a very good resource.
"Master General, can you listen to me? I am Hu Wei, don't worry, I will do my best to save you. ”
Hu Wei made a decision in an instant, turned around and shouted to Zhu Daneng: "The general is still alive, hurry, find a way to find some ropes, and let the brothers above pull the general up." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
After Zhu Daneng left, Hu Wei pulled Link's clothes away, and at the same time stuffed some first-aid drugs into his mouth, so as to protect his heart first.
"Captain, the rope has been found. ”
"Okay, throw one end down, and find a way to tie the other end. Okay, listen to my command and pull up slowly. ”
Under Hu Wei's command, it took nine years of two tigers' efforts, and Link was finally pulled up. Hu Wei's first time was to probe Link's breathing. Don't say it, although this guy's ability is not very good, his life is quite hard.
made a simple single frame, and several people took turns, one foot deep and one foot shallow to the top of the mountain.
After walking a little further, when passing a large mud pile, Hu Wei seemed to faintly hear something.
"Stop, do you hear anything?"
Hu Wei stopped the team.
"Captain, so many people have died, and they have died so miserably, there will be no ghosts. ”
Hou San had never experienced such a terrible thing in his life, and in an instant, the troops of nearly a thousand people were almost all dead. Everywhere he went, there were dead people, and the more he looked, the more frightened he became, and his face was blue.
"Smack. ”
Hu Wei slapped Hou San's head and scolded: "Just like you bear, you still came out to be a soldier." It's not like you've never seen a dead man, you need to be scared like this. ”
"Captain, they died so badly. ”
Hou San's words can be regarded as expressing everyone's thoughts, and even Zhu Daneng, who has always quarreled with him, did not refute it.
Yes, they have seen dead people. But they really haven't seen such a death. Those desperate and helpless eyes, those hands stretched out from the ground, they will never forget in this life.
"Smack!"
Hu Wei slapped Hou San's head again, this time with much more force than last time, and Hou San was hit in a trance, almost not hitting the mud.
"What is miserable in Maragobi, this is miserable? Ah! It's just a natural disaster, what's the big deal? Look at what you all look like, do you know that you are soldiers? Do you still have a little bit of military appearance?
If you think they are miserable, cheer up Lao Tzu and do something for them. It's all for Lao Tzu to stand like a man.
Wait three, listen carefully to me with your ears, and see what the sound is coming from, maybe there are living people around here. ”
Just experienced a catastrophe, Hu Wei didn't want to curse. But he found that if he didn't wake them up, they might be ruined.
Although Hu Wei has not studied psychology, everyone who is used to the rivers and lakes has the strength of his eye. He had already seen that Hou San, Zhu Daneng was wrong with them, and Hou San bumped into him at this time, which just gave him such an opportunity.
"Yes. ”
Hou San was beaten and scolded by Hu Wei, and it was much better than just now. When he heard that there might be living people in the vicinity, he immediately paid attention. Although he didn't necessarily know these people, it was a great comfort to see one more living person now.
Hou San's ears were really unusual, and soon, he discovered the voice that Hu Wei said and found the source of the voice.
"Captain, the voice is coming from this mud pile. It's the human voice, I heard it. ”
Hou San's words made everyone present cheer up, and before Hu Wei gave the order, they rushed up and wanted to dig up the mud.
Hu Wei shouted loudly: "Stop me, what are you doing." You are so messy, you have killed all the immortals. Flash them all for me. ”
After Hu Wei finished scolding, he carefully looked at this large mound, this mound leaned against the side of the mountain, more recessed than other places, if it was not just hit by the mudslide head-on, this is a good hiding place.
was observing, suddenly, Hu Wei found a horse's foot, and suddenly thought of something. Koku's men had hundreds of horses, but they didn't see many horse corpses along the way, thinking that it was because of the sudden natural disaster, the horses were frightened, and they all fell under the cliff. But here there are horse corpses and human voices, which is too unusual.
"Hou San, listen carefully, where did the human voice come from. ”
"I can't hear it now, but the sound I heard before was dull, like an echo, probably in this direction. ”
"Good, good job. A few of you come here, Zhu Daneng, a few of you, dig and dig from here, be careful, if you dig a horse, stop immediately. The rest dig this side. ”
"Yes. ”
A group of people did as Hu Wei said.
Because of Hu Wei's expression in the face of disaster, his words were more convincing.
