Another two days passed, and Lu Zhou was finally back to normal. However, the situation in Qinzhou was much more troublesome. The strong wind blew, and many people came out of their houses. Even the officials came out to help with the disaster.
Huzi and his men finally arrived at their destination. However, when they saw the first village, they understood the situation. All the houses had collapsed, and there were some corpses lying outside. When they walked over, they could not see anyone. There were also some crooked trees.
"Hurry up and look around. See if anyone is still alive. Hurry!" When Huzi saw this, he did not care about anything else. He ordered his men to run around the village and shout to see if anyone was willing to help. As long as there was some movement, it would be easy to handle.
Facing these collapsed houses, they really did not know what to do. They could not dig up the houses one by one. Although it would take a lot of time, what if there was no one inside after they finished digging? Then, the people in the other places might have died because they could not wait to be rescued.
"There's movement! Someone is knocking something down there. Quick, come over here!" A guard of the Prince's Mansion suddenly shouted excitedly. He called out to the others, and the people in the surroundings immediately gathered around.
Everyone stopped and listened carefully. As expected, the sound of someone knocking something down in the collapsed house could be heard. Since there were people inside, there was no need to say anything more. More than a hundred people began to dig. If the house had collapsed directly, it would not be a big deal. The main thing was that there was still rain, and it was very difficult to dig up.
They did not have any tools, and could only find some wood and other things to hold up the place.
At this moment, they did not care about the pain. Before they came, the Little Young Master had ordered them not to give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope. If they could save as many as they could, they would. If they could not, they should not be discouraged. There were still people waiting to be saved. They must have a stable mentality. Otherwise, how could they save others when they were exhausted?
Huzi was thinking about these things. He led more than a hundred people to rescue them. At the same time, he hoped that the people below were not too seriously injured. Otherwise, there was nothing they could do. The doctors were still on the ship.
After digging for a while, they finally saw the people inside. Both of them were still alive and didn't suffer any serious injuries. However, when they wanted to speak, the only thing that came out of their mouths was a hissing sound. With one look, it was obvious that they had shouted so much that they had lost their voice. This was nothing to Huzi and the others. They would slowly recover once they lost their voice.
"Don't worry, we are digging. We will let you out in a while. Don't talk, you can't say anything with that voice." Huzi was very happy. He had saved people. He didn't expect that there would be people alive today.
Everyone worked together and finally exposed the two people. A cupboard protected the two people, and the two people were next to the cupboard.
One was big and one was small. The small one was still in the big one's arms. To be precise, he was under the big one. He poked his head out and curiously looked at the people who saved them.
These people were wearing the same clothes. He didn't know where they had rubbed their clothes, but one was green while the other was yellow. All of them looked very strong. Furthermore, they were laughing. They should be very happy. Yes, he was happy too. After being suppressed here for seven or eight days, finally, someone came.
The big one was stunned for a moment. He pointed at his mouth and pointed at a muddy hole on the ground that was almost empty.
"I know, I know. You want water, right? There will be water soon." Huzi said as he took off the backpack he was carrying. He took out a water bag and fed it to the big one. The big one dodged and moved aside, revealing the small one below. He meant to give the small one to drink first.
Huzi naturally didn't care who gave it to first. He opened the water bag and poured it into the small one's mouth. After drinking a few mouthfuls, the small one finally felt better. He looked at the big one and said, "Give it to my brother."
"Okay, okay. Where's your family? Only the two of you are left? "Huzi asked the small one while feeding the big one.
"I don't know. The wind came. My brother and I didn't know where to go, so we hid here." The small one said weakly.
"I asked if any of your family members were with you when the gale came." Hu Zi asked again. If there were, then he had to continue digging and hope that he could find someone.
The small one shook his head, "No, they went out a few days ago to do something."
"Oh, okay, okay, I know. It's good that they weren't together. Come, come on big brother's back. Big brother will carry you out of here. There will be food soon. Don't be afraid."
Hu Zi was relieved. As long as they were not at home, it was impossible for them to be buried. He carried one on his back, and the others carried one on their back. Both of them were already very weak. Fortunately, there was still some dirty water here. Otherwise, both of them would have died here.
As soon as they were outside, someone began to make porridge. To be precise, they tore up the meat and mixed it directly in the water. There was no time to heat it up. When they felt that it was enough, they brought it over and fed it to the two people. After feeding them a bowl, they stopped feeding them. They were afraid that the two people's bodies couldn't bear it.
One person was left here to look after the two people. The others continued to shout, and from time to time, they would use a wooden stick to knock on a certain house. If they saw a gap, they would find a way to get in to see if there was anyone inside. This rescue process was very slow. Even if more than a hundred people didn't rest for a moment, by afternoon, they only knew if there were people inside or not.
Needless to say, there were indeed people. Two were dead, four were alive, and one was very seriously injured. Huzi and the others hoped that the ship could reach the river as soon as possible. They had already sent people to carry the seriously injured person over.
Not many people had died, in terms of proportion, but Hu Zi and the others were not in a good mood at all. They really hoped that everyone would be able to survive.
At this time, some of the people who ran out came back one after another. When they saw people digging here, they also helped. Huzi saw such people and asked, "Where are you from? How did you get here? "
"We are from this village. When the wind came, we knew that the house couldn't withstand it, so we ran. We were afraid that the smaller wind behind the strong wind would blow us away. After running for two days, we stopped. When the wind was gone, we could come back to save people."
A person who was digging hard said in fear. He didn't know if it was because he was afraid of the wind or because he was afraid of Huzi and the others.
Huzi opened his mouth to say something, but found that he couldn't say anything. Could he ask these people why they didn't run closer and immediately come back to save people? This was simply impossible. If it were them, they would even be able to stay here and not run. After all, they were guards, and they had to protect others.
But how could these ordinary people not run? In particular, they were afraid that they would be blown away by the wind, which was why they ran such a long distance. Now that they could come back to save people, it was already very good. There was no point in saying anything more.
The people who came back all ran away when they saw the wind in the sky. It seemed that not many people were buried. This way, Huzi and the others were more relaxed. They began to arrange things for these people to do, and at the same time, they took out some food from their backpacks for them to eat.
At night, more than two hundred people had returned from the village. They were all helping to dig, and two more people were dug out. One of them didn't look like he would survive, while the other fainted. After feeding him some water, he came back to life. At this time, crying sounds rang out. As one person cried, the others also cried.
Huzi and the others were also very sad, but they still had a mission to do. They endured their sadness and let the people here continue to help each other find food to eat. Their group began to prepare to leave.
"Yes, I wonder where you came from? When I grow up, I will definitely repay you, "a child who was dug out asked very sensibly.
When you meet someone who needs help, just help them. We eat from Lu Zhou. We are the guards of Provincial Governor Lu Zhou. And these are the guards of the Little Prince's mansion. Well, the home can be built again. Don't be so sad. Hang in there, it will be better in the future. "
Huzi said a few words to the child and left some food for him. Then, he left with the others and went to the next place. There might be people waiting to be saved at that place.
The child watched these people wearing the same clothes gradually walk away and said firmly, "I will. When I can help others, I will help others like you helped me. Provincial Governor Lu Zhou, is he the Great Good Official's man?"
The child knew a lot of things. As soon as he heard that they were from Lu Zhou's side, he immediately thought of the Great Good Official. From this, it could be seen that the Great Good Official's position in the hearts of the people was also known in this place.
The adults at the side began to prepare some wood and cooked the food that was dug out. They knew Provincial Governor Lu Zhou very well. Although he was far away, the news about the Great Good Official had long spread to this place.
"I didn't expect that the people we've been waiting for are from Lu Zhou's side. They're so far away, but they actually arrived before us. Where are our people?" A person who was also rescued said as he lay on the ground.
When the people in the surroundings heard his words, they fell silent. Indeed, Lu Zhou was so far away, and yet, he was able to send someone to rescue them. However, they did not see anyone from their province. They would be lying if they said they were not sad. They did not believe that the Provincial Governor of their province would not be able to send someone. After all, the Great Official had sent a bodyguard.
Judging from the time, and looking at the spirit of these guards, it was clear who they were. They should be the most elite group of people by the good official's side. The good official could send these people out for the people of other provinces, but the official of his own province still had nothing. How could this not make people feel sad?
The child who spoke earlier drank some more water. At this moment, he said, "Uncle, if it were someone from Lu Zhou's side, do you think he would be fine?"
"Yes, if the Great Good Official could send people here, how could he not care about the people on his side? It's a pity that we are not Lu Zhou's people. If only we were Lu Zhou's people."
The person who was asked said with a sigh. The people around him had the same thought. They would have a good life if they followed the Great Good Official. If they were the people under the Great Good Official, they would work hard to develop wastelands, work hard to farm, and pay a lot of rent. When the time came, they would ask the Great Good Official to help them build their homes.
As for this place, one day at a time, one day at a time. It was good enough to be alive. The Ning family only thought about how to get benefits for their family.
The child blinked and suddenly said, "Then why don't we go to Lu Zhou? Won't we be under the Great Good Official's control there? I want to go there. Do you want to go? When my parents come back, I'll tell them to go there. I don't want to stay in this place anymore. It's not good at all. "
When the child said that, the others' eyes lit up. Yes, they could go there. Someone had already gone there before. It was not a big deal for them to go there. If it was under normal circumstances, they would be considered refugees. However, after the disaster, it was different. The government could do nothing about it.
Therefore, these people began to discuss how to go to Lu Zhou while doing their work. The journey would not be easy, so they had to prepare everything that they needed.
We don't have to worry about food. We can eat while we work. We have to be quick. Otherwise, when the people here come, it won't be good if they stop us. We mustn't tell anyone. Everyone, split up and look for those who haven't come back yet. Then, we'll leave together, "the village chief said.
At this time, the village chief said. He was not qualified to be the village chief at all. Usually, he could not help with anything. But today, he decided to find a good place with the villagers. As for the dead, he would find a coffin to put them in and carry them to the place. Or, he would directly bury them here. Anyway, there was a special graveyard for burying people here.
As soon as he said that, the villagers began to get busy. Some prepared enough food, some prepared water, and some went out to look for those who had not come back yet. They hoped that they could find those who had not come back as soon as possible so that they could leave together. The way the government was doing things was too disappointing.
If no one from Lu Zhou came back, they would rebuild their home. However, the people from Lu Zhou had arrived, but there was no sign of the people from Lu Zhou. If it were anyone else, they would not be able to accept it. It was too sad.
Huzi and the others did not know what kind of consequences they would bring to Lu Zhou because of their forced march. They also did not know how much chaos this would cause in Qin Province. Even Zhang Xiaobao did not consider this when he made the arrangements.
Zhang Xiaobao's idea was very simple. He would send his men over. If they could save the people, he would save them. If they could not, it would mean that the people here were not in danger. However, he did not expect that the forced march could be so fast. This was under the condition that the road was not easy to walk on in the rain. If it was on Lu Zhou's side and the road was easy to walk on, these men would be even faster.
Naturally, they would not have to walk. They would have to ride horses. Perhaps, it would take less than two days to reach the two furthest places on horseback.
This speed might seem fast to others, but Zhang Xiaobao knew that it was still far from enough.
Huzi and the others did not dare to rest at all. After all, they had been training for the past few days. They knew what to do when they encountered unexpected situations. They would be able to hold on for two to three days as long as they replenished themselves with water and food from time to time. Naturally, after these two to three days were over, they would need to rest for a long time.
More than a hundred people continued to march, and after six hours, they arrived at the next place. This was also a village, but this village was a bit bigger, and could be said to be a village. When they arrived here, there were many torches, which illuminated this place very brightly.
Moreover, they could hear people shouting. "Great! Let's hurry over there. There are already people saving people over there. Let's see if they need anything. We have some medicine and bandages on us."
When Huzi saw the scene in front of him, he was happy. With this, it would be much easier for them to carry out their mission. When they arrived at the village, an injured person was dug out. After being buried for so many days, he was still alive. This made the others feel happy, but at the same time, they were also curious.
There was a foolish person who did not care about the person's injuries. He asked, "Aren't you the big ox from the east? How did you survive down there? Aren't you hungry? Aren't you thirsty? You didn't do anything to hold on until now? "
The foolish person asked with concern. However, he did not think about the other person's condition. If this person was seen by Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan, they would definitely think that this person was more like some people who specialized in interviewing people. He did not consider others at all.
Huzi rushed over. When he saw the wound on the person's chest, and a section of his ribs had been protruded out, he quickly pulled the person who was still asking the question aside. He came over to check the person's stomach and chest, and then opened the person's eyes and said, "Fortunately, it's not bad.
It's just that his body is a little weak, and the bleeding is actually small. I'll stop it first. Brother, you must hold on. Do you have any family members? Don't let them be sad. Rest assured, as long as you don't give up, you can be cured. Our doctor is different from other places. He is the best at treating this kind of wound.
You guys, don't just stand there. Hurry up and get a stretcher to carry him. Follow our people to the river. Remember to feed him some porridge on the way. When we reach the river, he will be fine. Maybe the boat has already arrived. We encountered a landslide on our way here, so we were delayed. "
Huzi said a few words to the injured person, and then began to instruct the other people in his village. These people were now in a daze. They did not know who these people in the same clothes who suddenly rushed over were.
From the looks of it, they shouldn't be bad people. Moreover, these people were all very strong, which made them unable to determine where exactly they came from. It wasn't until Hu Zi spoke to them that a portion of them went to make stretchers, while the others curiously sized them up.
The head of the village also rushed over and asked, "Where are you from? Are you sent from the province? "
"We're from the province, but not your Qin Province. We're from Lu Zhou. When the wind blew over here, we set off. We could have arrived earlier, but we encountered some unexpected situations. Just now, we passed by a village, and we saved all the people there. The second place we came to was your village.
Who else is injured? Hurry up and let us take a look. If we can save them, we'll save them. If we can't, we'll deal with them first. Then, we'll carry them to the river. Our boat will arrive there. Don't worry about food, there's food on the boat. "
Huzi really did not want to say these things. If he said this, it would give people the impression that he was showing off to them. However, he had no choice but to say this. He had to give these people a sense of confidence, and that was, they had more powerful people behind them. No matter how heavy their hearts were, Huzi and the others had no choice but to pretend that they did not care.
They gave people a sense of calmness and determination. As for what would happen in the end, they would have to bear it themselves. Nobody knew if they would have nightmares at night, or if they would spend a long time thinking about saving one less person.
The villagers immediately brought them to the injured people and lit up the area with torches. Huzi and the others began to treat those who could be saved. There was nothing they could do for those who were seriously injured.
They were busy until morning. Huzi left some medicine for the villagers to feed to the injured people. When the time came, they would carry them to the river and wait for the boat to arrive. After that, they would carry them to the river. After that, they would continue on their journey.
They were a little tired of doing so many things consecutively. The only way was to let some of them walk with their eyes closed while the others carried them. This way, they could relax a little. When the time came, the people who were carried would take turns to carry them after they had recovered a little.
In the yamen of Qin Province, many people had gathered here. At this time, the Tang Governor Of Ning was ready to send his army to rescue the injured people. Yes, the army. Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan knew that since ancient times, whenever there was a disaster in the land of China, the army would always be dispatched.
It was to protect the country. However, the Tang Governor Of Ning was a little late. These officials did not know that before they began to organize, Lu Zhou had forcibly marched a group of soldiers over. Logically speaking, this was crossing the line, but who asked them not to do it themselves?
They still did not know the impact that more than 100 people had on their province. The Tang Governor Of Ning felt that he was a good official. At least, he had dispatched the army now. However, his main focus was not on this.
