“Boom!”
Debris and dust began to cascade downwards with a rush.
“Mom, be careful!”
Hua Bao, who had been invisibly quiet on Jiang Yan’s shoulder, directly waved its six vines above the group, quickly weaving them into a net.
Tiny fragments of stone and dust fell through the gaps in the vine net, clinking against the helmets, eliciting a chill in one’s spine.
But fortunately, the larger stones were blocked by Hua Bao.
The dim light and the chaotic scene meant that no one noticed the miraculous phenomenon occurring overhead.
Ye Qing and Song Qian clenched their teeth against the barrage of stones coming from all directions, hastening their movement of the rocks.
The masks soaked with water could block the dust, but they stuck tightly to their noses, now coated with a layer of dust, making it increasingly difficult for the six to breathe.
“It’s clear now, we’ve almost got it open,” Ye Qing took a deep breath and bent down to move the last large rock.
His body was covered in dust, and his arms were cut in several places by the shattered stones.
Sun Jingtao, Kong Wu, and Qin Lang weren’t faring much better.
Luckily, the collapse occurred in waves.
As the four men cleared a small hole at the entrance of the passage, the vibrations from the collapse stopped.
Ye Qing took a flashlight from Qin Lang’s hand and shone it inside, saying,
“I’ll go first, Jiang Yan and Su Dai follow, the rest stay back, how’s that?”
“Okay,” everyone agreed without objection.
Ye Qing was strong and took the lead; if they encountered another situation that required “excavation,” naturally it would be convenient.
And as Jiang Yan and Su Dai were women, they were subconsciously deemed in need of protectio
The six of them, rolling and crawling, finally reached the entrance of the safety shelter.
To call it a shelter was in fact just a smaller, arc-shaped tunnel.
The space that could accommodate people was much smaller than imagined.
Affected by the surrounding collapses, there was a lot of dust on the ground, and fine cracks on the ceiling, but it was evident that the entire arched tunnel was made of a special type of mesh metal material.
The six people entered the tunnel and sat down on the floor.
They exchanged looks with each other, emerging like moles from a hole, their faces covered in dust.
Both pitiful and comically disheveled.
“I have a few more masks, let’s change into these first.” Jiang Yan took out a few masks.
Qin Lang and Kong Wu were surprised for a second.
Su Dai and Ye Qing, however, were somewhat accustomed to it.
They always had a feeling that Jiang Yan was like a walking treasure chest.
But their materialistic beliefs told them that it was probably just Jiang Yan’s thorough preparation.
After changing masks, their breathing became much more comfortable in an instant.
“Are you injured?” Jiang Yan caught a glimpse of the dark red mud on everyone’s hands and arms.
Big wounds bled, and when covered with dust, looked just like this.
“It’s nothing. The dust just acted as a coagulant,” laughed Ye Qing.
Jiang Yan took off her backpack and pretended to rummage through it, saying, “That won’t do, be careful of tetanus. Let me see if I still have some of the medicine I stored.”
Soon she found iodine, gauze, amoxicillin, and other items.
“Here you go.”
Qin Lang and Kong Wu were once again stunned.
“Sister Yan, are you Doraemon?” Qin Lang asked, both shocked and delighted.
Jiang Yan just smiled, not denying it, “Close enough.”
Kong Wu, usually blunt and straightforward, fell silent this time, saying,
“Sister Yan, these items are precious, and you’re using them for us. What will you do in an emergency? You should keep them for yourself. We’re all tough guys, a little wound is nothing.”
Masks were one thing.
But medicine, especially amoxicillin, was extraordinarily valuable.
Even within the base, it was difficult and costly to acquire.
“Yeah, you keep it,” both Ye Qing and Sun Jingtao knew of Jiang Yan’s capabilities, but they agreed with Kong Wu’s point and spoke in unison.
Jiang Yan smiled, “If it weren’t for you guys shielding Su Dai and me earlier, we would be the ones injured.”
During the previous collapse, the four men had indeed protected the two of them well.
Kong Wu said, “You don’t have to thank us, Sister Yan. Leader Mo said that you’re one of us, and we must protect you at the cost of our lives.”
“Let’s not talk about that, men protecting women, warriors protecting civilians, at any time, it’s the natural order of things,” Qin Lang added from the side.
Upon hearing these words, Su Dai’s eyes suddenly reddened.
In truth, after experiencing the two recent collapses, she felt rather hopeless.
Now, hearing the others speak such words, her mood didn’t improve but grew heavier:
Why must such good people suffer so much under natural disasters?
When would this apocalypse and these disasters ever end?
Listening to Kong Wu and Qin Lang’s words, Jiang Yan couldn’t help but feel moved in her heart…
