What Lou Xiaoyi had been predicting finally happened, in a way that he didn't expect at all. Even though he had considered many details, when the incident came to an end, he found that he was actually no different from other panicked companions. Let alone two lives, just ten lives.
Being a human being is in vain in this situation.
The first thing he did was to scream, eight times in total. During the fall, cultivators were no different from ordinary people. They were all people who couldn't fly!
The second thing is to collapse. This is an instinctive reaction during the falling process. At least the neck cannot be broken...
Among the eight screams, Fatty Qian's was the most earth-shattering, Madam Feng's was the most shrill and high-pitched, Li Sanlang's was the most unwilling, and Lou Xiaoyi's was the strangest, because people here don't talk like that.
I - 'Grass, what do you mean? There is no grass here!
It was pitch dark all around, and he didn't dare to open his eyes because it was all filled with sand and dust. Lou Xiaoyi felt like he hit something twice. He didn't know if it was other people or falling earth. He felt like a ball.
Bouncing around, being kicked around with huge force,
But this is a kind of luck, which means that he did not fall straight to the ground, and the impact force was much lighter; the most important thing is that he has always been carrying a bag weighing dozens of kilograms, and the eight thick pancakes inside gave him
precious buffering power,
He is not stupid, he knows how to roll to relieve the force after landing and impact. Although the unloading is not standard, nor is the weight of dozens of kilograms on his back. He rolls and crawls, trying to stay away from the falling sand and gravel.
He pushed the clods away, then rolled himself into a ball and took his first dust bath.
After a moment, the sand above his head stopped falling. Although the smoke and dust had not completely disappeared, and the choking person was still breathing rapidly, Lou Xiaoyi knew that he could not wait any longer. This was the most critical moment for life rescue, and any delay could mean life.
The end of.
In this moment of earth collapse, he went from panic and helplessness to regaining his composure and calm judgment, which truly reflects the maturity of a soul that has lived in two lifetimes.
He was not buried deep. Thank God, this was not a floor collapse, and there were no large items. It was all sand and earth that would break when touched. This meant that no one would be killed, but it was very likely that someone would be buried alive!
The sand was not even up to his waist. Lou Xiaoyi tried hard to pull himself out of the sand without shouting, because in the dark, any meaningless shouting would increase the panic.
I tried my hands, feet, waist and legs. Are the breathing parts still there? There is no special internal pain, just some scratches on the skin...
It was too late to handle himself carefully. Although he could not see his fingers, he could at least accurately touch the baggage behind him and open it. Due to the violent impact, the things inside were somewhat deformed. I hope it is still useful!
His baggage mainly consists of soft objects, such as ropes, big cakes, water bags, medicinal materials, clean cotton cloth to wrap wounds, etc., but what he is looking for now is one of the hard things - a small angry dead
Wind lantern!
This was his first choice. For mankind, in this situation, there is nothing more important than light that can bring hope and calm to everyone.
While groping anxiously, his hand was scratched, and he realized that it was the crushed fragment of the lantern's cover, but it didn't matter, it was all a trivial matter.
He touched the somewhat deformed and incomplete wind lantern and placed it in front of him. He then took out two pieces of the best flint from under the base of the wind lantern and found the position of the oil core.
‘Pah, pah, pah’
The first time my hand was still shaking, but after the second and third time it became much more stable. Finally, an inch-high orange light lit up. In this almost closed, dark space, it was not just light that lit up.
Still hope for life!
As soon as the lights came on, a voice came from not far away,
"I'm here, help me!"
Lou Xiaoyi held up the wind lantern and followed the sound. Because his voice was hoarse, he couldn't identify who it was. Only when the wind lantern shone over did he realize that it was Qi Er!
The sand was almost buried to his chest. If he was not rescued for a long time in this position, he would die of shortness of breath. It was probably because his hand was injured, and his own self-rescue was too weak.
Lou Xiaoyi put the lantern in front of him and began to dig the soil with his bare hands. He did not bring a sand shovel in his bag, so he had to use his hands. Fortunately, the sand was soft, otherwise even if his hand was broken, he would not be able to save anyone.
Just as he was digging with all his strength, the fat man's voice came from the other direction,
"Grandpa Fairy, come and save me... Fatty, if I survive this, I'll treat you to Wanshunlou to eat my elbow every day!"
Do you still know how to bribe the gods with elbows? Then it’s no big deal!
Lou Xiaoyi shouted: "Grandpa Immortal, I remember it! If you persist, I will dig you out after I dig up my second brother!"
The fat man laughed and said, "So it's Xiao B! Want to pretend to be your fat grandfather? I don't have elbows, but chicken feet can take care of you!"
With Lou Xiaoyi's help, Qi Er came out very quickly. He was shaken badly during the collision, and was weighed down by the sand and soil, making his whole body weak. Only then did Lou Xiaoyi dig into his waist. He was already able to do it by himself.
Helping him out, Lou Xiaoyi kept running, "Second brother, slow down first, I'll dig out the fat man!"
Fatty Qian was buried lying down. In fact, he was not buried deeply. He was just out of breath. This guy was lucky. Like Lou Xiaoyi, except for a few external injuries, there was nothing serious.
Qi Er finally recovered and found a sand shovel from somewhere. With the two of them taking action, the rescue immediately went much faster!
While searching, they dug out iron pillars, monkeys, and Young Man Han, but Mrs. Feng and Li Sanlang were nowhere to be seen!
Tie Zhu and Han Lao were both seriously injured, while Monkey's legs were broken and he could not move.
Qi Er's eyes were red, regardless of his injured hand, he dug desperately for every suspicious protrusion, shouting while digging; Fatty Qian was the same, he had no intention of joking anymore, in front of life, everything seemed so trivial
heavy.
Their biggest obstacle is that their vision is limited and they cannot reach far. A mere wind lantern is not enough to detect abnormalities in every corner.
But no one gave up. For Lou Xiaoyi, it was an obligation to his friends. For Qi Er, it was to redeem the guilt in his heart. He brought the person here. He couldn't imagine the violent wind he would face even if he went back without one.
Showers!
I dug up another wind lantern, which I barely used, which made the search more organized.
Qi Er was on the left, Lou Xiaoyi was on the right, with Fatty Qian sandwiched between them. The three of them began to push flatly, not missing even the slightest trace.
Not only were they searching for people, but they were also looking for objects, especially water bladders, which were the key to their survival; water bladders were not afraid of impacts, but were only afraid of being cut by sharp objects, so as long as they could be found, there was a chance that they would be intact.
