Free Web NovelChapter 1206: Chapter 1206: Another Landslide
Jiang Xue nervously stared at the mountain, and the people clearing the road were just as tense. As they worked, they frequently looked up at the mountain, fearing any incident.
To prevent any mishaps, the team leader specifically instructed them to vacate immediately if anything seemed wrong.
Time passed little by little, and the more they cleared the soil, the more the road emerged. Just a little more effort, and the road will be passable.
But right at that moment, a thunderclap suddenly exploded above everyone’s heads. With the thunder echoing, the initially stable mountain began to slide again.
Everyone was still dazed by the thunder when another crashing sound came from above, as earth and trees slid down in an instant.
"Run, it’s a landslide!" someone shouted, finally snapping everyone back to reality, and they turned and ran with their tools.
Luckily, everyone reacted swiftly; their feet moved fast enough to escape as the landslide descended.
As soon as they fled, the previously cleared road was blocked again. The people in the vehicles opposite, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but curse the heavens.
They were on the verge of getting through, but blocked again, a few eager ones had already started their cars, ready to move at any moment.
But who knew, the mountain would slide and collapse again, leaving them with nothing but disappointment. This time the landslide was wider, larger, and not confined to just one place, spreading to several areas.
Some cars parked quite close were buried in the landslide. Seeing people trapped, the rescuers became anxious, wanting to save them. But the landslide hadn’t stabilized yet, and no one dared to move, only watching helplessly as the cars were buried.
Time ticked by, and the landslide finally began to slow down. Though only a few minutes passed, it seemed like a year to those watching and those buried.
As soon as the landslide halted, the rescuers could no longer hold back and rushed to the buried cars. Clearing the road wasn’t their immediate priority now; their focus was those few trapped in the cars.
In recent days, many lives had been lost in the disaster area, and they didn’t want more casualties. Arriving at the buried cars, they immediately began to remove the earth covering them, smashing windows and dragging the people out.
Though it had been just a few minutes, the people in the cars were already suffocating. After rescuing them, emergency measures were immediately taken, but with little success.
Faced with the imminent death of these people, Jiang Xue stepped up and said, "Let me do it!"
With that, Jiang Xue approached the suffocating individuals, took out silver needles, and pierced them. As she inserted the silver needles, she also transferred some of her spiritual power into their bodies.
Thus, those who were suffocating gradually awakened. Seeing them revive, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and their gaze towards Jiang Xue immediately transformed.
At this moment, Gong Bei stepped forward, looked at Jiang Xue and said with a smile, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
"Sister-in-law?" Everyone looked at Jiang Xue in surprise and asked Gong Bei, "Gong Bei, is she your sister-in-law?"
