Chapter 38 Earth Magic! Start Saving People!
“Captain, we found trapped people here!”
Zhang Jinlong and the others exchanged glances and quickly ran over! The firefighter said anxiously, “The police dogs can only confirm that there are people trapped down here, but we don’t know the exact depth!”
Because the collapsed structure was a five-story building, there were a lot of bricks and steel bars in the ruins. If the people trapped down there were next to the steel bars, they would be in danger if they were injured during the rescue.
Yuan Congming quickly asked, “Little Brother, how confident are you in rescuing them?”
Zhang Jinlong looked at the ruins below and said, “I have to try. I’ll try my best!”
Yuan Congming pointed at the crowd in the distance and said, “Their families really need them to come out alive!”
Zhang Jinlong nodded solemnly.
He squatted down and chanted in a low voice.
“Heavy earth elements… listen to my call… open up the soil in front…”
As Zhang Jinlong chanted, the ground trembled slightly.
Zhang Jinlong tried his best to stabilize the earth elements so that the ruins would not collapse again.
Slowly, the bricks and soil on the ground began to shake, and the frequency of the shaking became faster and faster.
Then, a small hole appeared, and the surrounding sand began to press towards the two sides of the hole.
Because of the help of the magic elements, these bricks and stones did not fall down but instead gathered towards the two sides of the hole.
The cave under Zhang Jinlong’s feet continued to expand.
Yuan Congming was ecstatic when he saw this.
He could save them!
He could definitely save the people below!
Soon, a cave entrance that could accommodate one person appeared. Beads of sweat also appeared on Zhang Jinlong’s forehead.
“Here, you can find the people buried under the tunnel. I’ve strengthened the places along the cave entrance. It’s not a problem for one person to go down.”
A thinner firefighter volunteered, “I’ll go down first to check the situation. You guys wait for me up there.”
Yuan Congming immediately said, “Put a safety rope on Monkey. Let him go down first. If you find the trapped people, pull the rope immediately. We’ll pull you up!”
Soon, the firefighter nicknamed Monkey was tied with a safety rope and slowly slid down the tunnel entrance.
Five minutes later.
The rope was pulled.
At this moment, both the firefighters here and the crowd in the distance held their breaths.
The rope was pulled up bit by bit.
When a little girl covered in mud was pulled up, the crowd gave thunderous applause.
“Awesome!”
“It must be the students from Hogwarts University who saved her!”
“Thank you! Thank you to our firefighters and the students from Hogwarts University!”
“Someone was saved, that’s great, that’s
great!”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!”
The applause stopped, and a paramedic ran out and put the little girl on a stretcher, and she was sent to the hospital.
The safety rope was put down again.
Five minutes later.
A woman was rescued. One of her legs was weak, and it seemed like it had been broken.
“Doctor, come and get her now.”
The stretcher came again, and the woman was carried up and sent away.
Soon, another firefighter shouted, “I found vital signs here!”
Very quickly, another student ran over. Following Zhang Jinlong’s method, all the collapsed bricks and stones were separated, and the passage was fixed for the firefighter to go down
Half an hour later, the first firefighter who went down came up.
A total of four people were saved, but none of their lives were in danger!
Yuan Congming said to Zhang Jinlong with gratitude, “Little Brothers, I really have to thank you. If it weren’t for your help, the rescue wouldn’t have been so easy!”
Zhang Jinlong waved his hand and said, “Now is not the time to say thanks. Hurry up and save them. The most important thing is to save people!”
“Yes, we need to save people quickly. As long as we move faster, some of the people who were pressed down by the collapsed bricks and stones will also be saved. Their lives will not be in danger.”
During the rescue, especially those who were trapped under the bricks and stones had died because the best time to save them was missed.
Such a tragedy wouldn’t have happened if these trapped people were saved immediately when the disaster struck.
In two hours, a total of 20 survivors were rescued.
Some of them were unconscious, some were injured, and one of them even had a steel bar pierced through his chest. Fortunately, they were discovered in time. If it were an hour or two later, there would have been no hope.
Soon, a fireman carried the body of a man up from another rescue cave.
The fireman cried, “I’m sorry, we were late. When I went down… he…”
Yuan Congming and the others saw that the person who was saved had no signs of life. His entire back was badly mutilated, and one could even see his white spine.
The fireman continued to cry, “He protected his wife and children under his body. He was hit by a big rock. His spine was broken, and he was gone…”
At this moment, everyone was silent.
The tough guy from before was almost burned to death by the fire because he protected his wife and children.
At that time, some netizens commented on the internet that a man like the tough guy was rare in this world. However, there was another man like him in the ruins today.
He sacrificed his life so that his wife and children could live.
If it weren’t for his family, he would have had a chance to escape when the rock fell.
But he didn’t do it. He shielded his wife and children without thinking.
In the ambulance, a woman shouted crazily, “My husband. Please save my husband. He’s still down there.”
“Husband, save my husband!”
The woman struggled frantically and fell off the stretcher. One of her legs was broken, and she crawled over to the pile of rubble.
“Why did the injured person come back!”
A police officer shouted loudly that it was very dangerous here. It was very likely that other buildings would collapse.
A doctor quickly said, “The injured person was unconscious just now. When we carried her to the ambulance, she woke up and immediately jumped down.”
The woman cried crazily. She grabbed the ground with both hands and stubbornly crawled forward. Because she used too much strength, her fingers bled, and the ground was covered in blood.
“Hubby, don’t die. I beg you, I beg you…”
The woman’s cry made the surrounding crowd silent.
The police officer did not stop the woman and let her climb to the front of the ruins.
When she saw the white cloth covering the stretcher, her heart sank to the bottom, and with a howl, she fainted.
