    Manli¡¯s camera kept taking pictures, and her face was covered with tears.

    Corpses were dragged out of the air-raid shelters one after another, and within a short time, they were already piled up on the street.  The living people were crying loudly, not knowing whether it was for their own escape from death or for the loss of their relatives.  There was no blood, but most of the bodies were naked, as if they had experienced a baptism from God.

    "Most of them died of suffocation, and some were trampled and squeezed to death!" Zhang Xian told Manli as he looked at the dead people numbly.

    Manli started to vomit. This was the first time she saw so many dead people. She didn't understand why these people who had gone to the air-raid shelters and were already in a safe area still died in such misery.

    "The Japanese blew up the vents." When Zhang Xian saw the guard who refused to let him open the door again, the guard explained to him.

    "Why didn't you let them out at that time?" Zhang Xian couldn't cry anymore. He felt that this man who was a soldier like him didn't have such love as him, but was so cold.

    The guard did not answer. He was silent and looked pale.  Yes, no one thought there would be such serious consequences.  He was only acting in accordance with the orders of his superiors.

    This world is inherently unfair. People with power and money will not crowd in. Of course they have their own shelters. Those who take refuge in public tunnels are the little people who have no power and money. These little people, these common people are here.  In this troubled world, we are just grass in the wilderness, left to fend for ourselves. Even if it is burned by fire, no one will care about it.

    Manli's camera stopped, and she stared at a picture, and the person was frozen there: in front of her, there was a dead mother with her eyes wide open, her upper body was naked, and her withered breasts were exposed.  And just above this dead body, her hands were still holding a baby that was less than one year old. The baby was lying between the mother's breasts, with the mother's nipple still in its mouth.

    This scene shocked all passers-by, and many people could not help but burst into tears.

    Zhang Xian was also moved by this scene. It reminded him of his mother. Oh, his mother is no longer here. He could imagine that in Nanjing, his mother must have protected his two brothers in this way.  For many years to come, this picture has been imprinted in his mind and he will never forget it.

    Manli vomited again. Her whole body seemed to have collapsed. If Zhang Xian hadn't caught her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.

    Zhang Xian just wanted to take her back to his residence as soon as possible, even though the place was already in ruins.  He supported Manli and walked slowly forward. Manli was leaning on his shoulder, still sobbing.

    On the road, broken walls and ruins can be seen everywhere, and people are crying and looking for anything that can be used in those broken houses.  The fire is still burning, fire trucks are running all over the streets, and it is not clear where the fire is that has not been extinguished.

    As I was walking, I saw a group of people in front of me, pointing and talking about something.  Zhang Xian and Man Li couldn't help but stepped forward to see what was going on.

    However, when Zhang Xian and Man Li squeezed through the crowd and followed people's gaze to look over there, they couldn't help but be shocked: they saw the little girl who had been selling them gardenias for the past two days, and this  The little girl fell under a collapsed house. A wooden beam fell on her legs, preventing her from climbing out. Fortunately, this wooden beam held up the fallen wall.  The wall didn't smash her into a pulp.

    "Why don't you all go rescue her quickly? You're still watching here." Manli was a little angry and asked the onlookers on the sidelines whether, in her opinion, these people were too insensitive.

    "Miss, didn't you see it?" A young man next to her told her: "There is a bomb that did not explode!"

    Zhang Xian and Man Li discovered that there was indeed an unexploded bomb in the middle of the wall pressed against the wooden beams. The bomb was buried in a pile of bricks and could not be seen unless you looked carefully.

    The little girl must have fainted at first, her flower basket and her shower sprinkled all over the floor.  At this time, she faintly woke up, crying and struggling to crawl out, but the wooden beam was too heavy, and her body was too delicate, and she could not pull her legs out at all. On the contrary, her struggle just now  , causing the wall above to shake, and the bomb also shook.

    People felt the danger coming and ran away shouting, fearing that they would be hit by bombs.

    "What should I do?" Manli didn't run away. She pulled Zhang Xian anxiously and asked.

    "Little girl, don't move!  Zhang Xian came to the little girl, stroked her face, and comforted her: "Don't move for a long time. Listen to big brother and don't move!"  "

    The little girl had a muddy face. She opened her eyes and saw Zhang Xian's face clearly. She also recognized him, so she nodded gently.  Some people are born with a sense of trust, and Zhang Xian is such a person.

    Zhang Xian then turned around and said to Manli, "We need engineers to dismantle the bomb before she can be rescued."

    "But where to find engineers?" Man Li asked.

    "We can only go to the police! Let the police station go find the engineers." Zhang Xian told her.

    "How long will it take to wait? Can she still hold on?" Manli asked worriedly.

    Zhang Xian looked at the little girl lying in the muddy water. She had stopped crying, but her breathing was very weak. She might not be able to survive for an hour, let alone half a day.  There are only two results before him. One is to save the little girl, which may detonate the bomb, and in this case, he may be blown to pieces by the bomb. In the end, not only will the little girl not be saved, he is afraid that he will also be killed.  He will die here; the other result is to dismantle the bomb and find the engineers. There are countless twists and turns in the process. This little girl is afraid that she will also die by then.  Therefore, no matter how you think about it, it is difficult to save this little girl's life.

    Although Zhang Xian didn't say it out loud, Manli had seen his hesitation in his eyes and understood his embarrassment, but she didn't know why. When she lowered her head and saw the gardenia falling at her feet  , a wave of belief made her firm: "I don't care so much, I must save her!"

    Until this moment, Zhang Xian began to regret why he didn't learn blasting in the military academy. In fact, their courses did include blasting as a subject, but it was just because it was not his main subject. He only had a general understanding of it because it didn't qualify for the grades.  It was simple, so no one took it seriously at the time.

    He stood up again and took a closer look at the situation. Then he had an idea and said to Manli: "I think there is a way, I should give it a try."

    "What can we do?" Manli asked hurriedly.

    Zhang Xian pointed at the wooden beam and said: "As long as we carefully lift up the beam, pull out the little girl's legs, and prevent the bombs above from moving, there should be no danger."

    "Then how to hold up this beam?"

    "Jack!"

    Yes, this is actually the simplest method, but everyone was frightened by the danger at the time, and no one thought of it.

    Manli knew that there was a car repair shop nearby. After hearing what Zhang Xian said, she immediately ran towards the repair shop. She was no longer like the weak woman who was vomiting and unable to do anything just now.

    After a while, Manli ran back from there, holding a oily black jack in her arms, not caring that it was full of oily mud and would stain her clothes.

    Zhang Xian drove the surrounding audience away. At the same time, he also took a good look at the terrain, because it was on a gentle slope. If the bomb was about to explode, he could roll down the slope. He believed in himself.  He had limited reaction ability, so under his repeated requests, Manli was driven out of the danger range by him.

    Everyone believed in the soldier and thought he would be able to rescue the poor little girl.

    Zhang Xian placed two bricks under the jack, and then he was able to support it, and it slowly rose up little by little.  The beam was pushed up, and the wall above shook for a while, and then stabilized. The bomb also shook with the wall, and then stabilized with the wall.

    In this way, the jack was raised little by little, and everyone watching from a distance behind had their hearts hanging tightly. Manli even raised her heart to her throat.

    Zhang Xian was careful, big beads of sweat rolled down his head, but he didn't notice it.

    I don¡¯t know how long it took, but Zhang Xian felt that the gap was big enough. He stopped the jack there and leaned over to slap the little girl¡¯s legs.  One leg was pulled out smoothly, but the other leg may have been swollen due to being pressed for a long time, and got stuck in another gap.  Zhang Xian had to carefully clean the rubble around the gap, slowly dig out the hole, and then pull out the little girl's other leg.  However, he stood up with the little girl in his arms, and when he took a deep breath, he found that Manli was already standing behind him at some point.

    It turned out that Manli couldn't bear it in the end and didn't listen to his words. When he was digging a hole for the little girl, she came to him and wanted to help him.

    When Zhang Xian turned around and saw Man Li, before he could recover, the jack that was lifted up crooked, and the hole that was dug out broke the balance of the ruins, causing the wooden beams to collapse, and the blockage collapsed.  The wall came crashing down, and the bomb fell with it.  Zhang Xian didn't see all this. He had his back turned, but Manli saw it.  She exclaimed, and she didn't know where she got such strength. She pushed Zhang Xian to the ground. Zhang Xian rolled down the slope with the little girl in his arms. At the same time, there was a loud rumble.  In an instant, Manli's vivid figure was torn to pieces, and only a layer of blood mist dispersed in the air, disappearing in the blink of an eye with the sound of explosion

    "Manli!" Zhang Xian got up, knelt on the ground and shouted heartbroken.

    After a long time, only a red plastic hairpin fell from mid-air and landed right in front of Zhang Xian.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Suddenly he fell down, and the bomb also fell down.  Zhang Xian didn't see all this.
