Chapter 754: Connection (Part 1)
"Brother Qi, does it hurt?"
After a storm, the villagers who were watching the fun had dispersed, and Zhao Yongqi finally had some time for himself. At this moment, he was enjoying the tenderness of coming to Xiao Baozi.
No matter how magical and invincible Brother Xiao Qi is, he is still a human. Since yesterday, he was digging with his hands completely, and his ten fingers were already grinding into blood. Although he tried his best to hide from the little bun, how could the girl not notice it? When she first discovered that his fingers were like this, the girl's tears never stopped. On the contrary, today, she seemed to be used to it, just used warm water to carefully wipe the wounds.
"It doesn't hurt." Zhao Yongqi, who drank the last bite of "porridge", or rice-washing water, put down the bowl with a smile, and said to the beautiful girl in front of him without any concern: "You don't know, I have always recovered faster than others."
He said nothing, lowered his head and carefully dipped a little warm water with the clean white cloth in his hand, wiped off the last bit of dirt mixed with blood from the cracked nails. Then he pouted his mouth, feeling distressed and said angrily: "I know nonsense all day long! People say that ten fingers are connected to the heart. Usually, I can't stand the pain if I accidentally get a needle, let alone it's like this now."
Seeing that the little bun was pursed and the expression on his face seemed to be cloudy and cloudy. Maybe it would rain again at any time, Zhao Yongqi turned his eyes and said hurriedly: "This naive thing is not great. Look, it's raining again."
Indeed, it was rare to be clear all morning. Although there was no sunshine, it would not affect the survivors who went out to explore and collect. But now it was just after noon and it started to rain sparsely.
Although it is light rain, for survivors who lack rain gear, there is actually no difference between heavy rain and light rain. As long as you go out for a little activity, your clothes will be soaked. What’s more troublesome is that they have to continue lighting a bonfire and consume not much fuel. On the one hand, the wet clothes need to be baked, otherwise the weather will definitely freeze to death. On the other hand, the collected wood, door panels, seats and benches, etc. also need to be roasted by the bonfire, otherwise when it needs to be burned, the thick smoke will be enough to choke to death.
When it started to rain, the temperature immediately dropped again. When a gust of wind blew, you would feel like ice water was poured into the back collar, and your whole body was shivering.
Putting down the blood-colored white cloth in his hand, the little bun sits beside Zhao Yongqi, leaning his head against his shoulder, looking at the falling rain outside the shed, and said with a slight slightest: "Brother Qi, how long will we be trapped here?"
"It won't be long." Zhao Yongqi said softly: "It has been almost twenty-four hours since the beginning of the earthquake. If I guess it's good, the troops, armed police and others should have started rescue work. We are a little remote here, but we will definitely come in for a day or two at most. Speaking of which, it's not good. If the weather is clear, maybe we can see the troops' helicopter today."
Nodding slightly, as if he believed Zhao Yongqi's words, Xiao Baozi gently pinched his arm and said softly: "Looking at this rain, I guess it won't stop until the evening, so don't go out in the afternoon. Even if you are in good health, you will get sick after being rained for so long last night."
Zhao Yongqi was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "I really didn't expect this. I don't care, but others can't do it. Now we lack everything. If we get sick again, it will be troublesome."
Speaking of this, Zhao Yongqi turned around and greeted Cheng He not far away: "Brother He, call all the responsible brothers Hu Zi and others over. Our plan will change in the afternoon."
"Okay, wait." Cheng He did not refuse, and immediately got up and went to the crowd behind him, shouting names one by one. Now, he was like a logistics manager, and he was responsible for dealing with almost all the messy things in the camp. Don't look at him who is usually lazy, to be honest, he is more skilled in managing these chores than Zhao Yongqi.
After a while, the young men and women responsible for searching and collecting gathered around Zhao Yongqi.
"Little boss, what's wrong?" Hu Zi was anxious and asked directly as soon as he sat down.
"No hurry, sit down first." Zhao Yongqi smiled and greeted everyone and sat down, then said: "Little Baozi just now reminded me that if you keep getting wet in the rain, everyone will fall ill, and I think so. It's starting to rain again now, and we have too few rain gears. In the afternoon, we will let those who don't have rain gear and those who are weaker, all of them will rest in the camp."
After hearing what Zhao Yongqi said, everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement. In fact, if it weren't for the help of it, who would have wanted to go out and go around when it rained heavily?
Seeing everyone responding, Zhao Yongqi nodded and continued, "Our camp is almost full. I guess it is calculated that the gravel on the surrounding main street can be cleaned up, and this camp can only be accommodated at most 3,000 people. Now we have only searched less than one-third of the area. There are at least seven or eight thousand living in the county. This camp is definitely not enough. Brother He, please take a few people, go around and take a look, choose a larger place, not far from here, and build a new camp so that there will be too many people to stay."
"Well, I'll leave later." Cheng He nodded without hesitation.
Zhao Yongqi looked at the locals again and said with a little apology: "Everyone will collect the camp back later. The rain cloth, plastic paper and other things that are not available for the time being are distributed to the strong men, so that they can continue to search. However, there is no need to go to the ruins to find the buried ones, but directly find the survivors who can still move freely, and bring them all back. I have been carrying it all night yesterday. If I fight hard today, I will probably die if I am buried again... As for those buried ones... Alas, I can't care about so many now, so I can only care about the living."
"Well, we understand. Little boss, don't worry, everyone knows the difficulties." The big man Huzi nodded and responded.
After a moment of silence, Zhao Yongqi cheered up and said to the women with a smile: "Sisters, I have to work harder. If you have rain gear, go out for a walk. The main thing is to see if there is food. We have too little food. If the food is cut off, people's hearts will be really messed up. If you can collect it, try to collect some."
Several capable women were about to nod and agreed when they saw a thin figure rushing into the rain.
"Brother Xiao Qi, we are connected to the satellite!"
"What?!" Zhao Yongqi jumped up in shock. The surprise on his face was even more excited than five million. "I'm saved now!"
