"Teacher Li, before the boat capsized just now, I counted the number of people. There were 32 people in total! There should be more than 20 people coming up now, and there are still a few missing. By the way, Li Shitai seems to have not come out yet. ." A student stood up and said.
Li Yueji immediately panicked when she heard this. Of the three brothers in her father's generation, the second uncle's family gave birth to a cub, which shouldered the great mission of passing on the family lineage. Naturally, it was more precious than a baby.
"Hurry up, classmates, and count the people in your own yard to see who has not come up. Uncle Qiulai, ask everyone to save people quickly, there are still many children who have not come up!" Li Yueji herself does not know how to swim. , only do it there in a hurry. The anxious mobile phone was also soaked in water, and he couldn't even make a call for help.
The people on the shore ran over quickly. It seemed that they had gotten the news. The children here were related to everyone in the village. People in the countryside were rarely indifferent. When we arrived in the city, many of the people who acted bravely in that environment were migrant workers.
Not long after Li Qiulai got into the water, he emerged from the water, "Trouble, the passenger ship was pressed against a pile of pebbles at first, but just now, the pile of pebbles collapsed, the passenger ship flipped again, and now it is tightly tied to the river bed. Come on, I just went down and touched it, but I couldn't find a single crack. It seems that we have to wait for the crane to come over and lift the boat up before we can rescue the people underneath!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? How long can you hold this in the water? When the crane comes, the day lily will be cold! Damn it, you just can't wait! Find a way to save people quickly!" A man who just arrived shouted loudly He shouted, took off his clothes, threw them on the ground, and immediately jumped into the water.
"Come here and bring some logs to see if you can tilt the boat up a little, then get in and save people!" The man reached the water, turned back and shouted to the shore.
This was a good idea, and the people on the shore immediately ran back.
Li Yueji burst into tears because her cousin was still under the boat, and several students hadn't come out. In addition, Jiang Bian, who had just saved her, must also be under the boat.
Li Qiulai was scolded, but he was not angry. At this time, saving people was the most important thing.
Li Qiulai swam on the water for a few times, and seemed to think of something again, "Let a few people go and look down the river to see if any students were washed down."
Li Yueji¡¯s eyes also lit up, ¡°Yes, yes, everyone splits up, someone must have been rushed down! Go and look for it!¡±
Sure enough, not long after, I heard good news coming from downstream.
"There are two here, still alive! These two bastards are really lucky, they climbed up by themselves!"
Not long after, I heard Li Shitai running up, "Sister, eldest sister! I'm fine! I just touched a big carp down there!" Li Shitai hugged a carp and shouted as he ran. The adults around him who were busy rescuing people were dumbfounded.
The children had completely forgotten that they were struggling on the edge of death, and they found happiness so quickly.
But there were still people who had not come up. When we quickly counted the number of people, we found that there were still two female classmates who had not come out, and there were still people on the riverside who had gone down to rescue people.
"Is the man with the logs here yet! Mother, hurry up! If you wait too long, the man will be gone a long time ago!" The man who went down into the river just now is named Jiang Houliang. According to his seniority, the people on the riverside call him Uncle Eighth, but because of his age Not much different from the riverside.
He didn¡¯t go out to work, not because he was lazy, but because he worked at a power station in the town.
Jiang Houliang dived a few more times, but without tools, there was nothing he could do with the big boat. The longer we delay now, the smaller the chances of survival for those below will be.
But he said that as soon as the riverside entered the bottom of the boat, he heard a crash, the hull trembled, and soon the surrounding area turned into darkness. The people on the riverside immediately knew that something bad had happened. The fishing boat must have sunk to the bottom! Whether he can go out now has become a problem.
However, Jiangbian did not panic, but calmed down. Jiangbian closed his eyes and paused for a while. When he opened his eyes again, there seemed to be a glimmer of light at the bottom of the boat. Although he couldn't see clearly, it was better than the complete darkness at the beginning.
It was very quiet under the boat, and only a slight swaying sound could be heard. When the riverside heard it, there was a rush of excitement in my heart. This swaying sound showed that the air under the boat was not completely exhausted. In the gaps, there is a possibility that you are still alive.
But the space underneath is a bit small, and there are some partitions in the cabin. It is not easy to enter from one cabin to another.
Jiangbian¡¯s own diving ability is super strong and has almost no limits, so there is no big problem even if he stays underwater waiting for rescue. However, Jiangbian is worried about the students who are still pressed under the boat. riversideI don¡¯t know how many students there are under the water.
From time to time, Jiangbian used his hands to dig out the pebbles under the river bed, dug out a passage, and continued to search forward. Unexpectedly, Jiangbian found nothing in several cabins.
The last cabin is also the largest cabin, and naturally the most likely place to have survivors. Another channel was dug on the riverside, and then like a loach, it got in.
The situation inside made Jiangbian very surprised. The two little girls had their heads pressed against the bottom of the boat. There was a gap of less than 5 centimeters above it. The two little girls relied on this small gap to survive.
When they saw the riverside crawling over from the bottom of the water, causing the water surface to shake violently, the two little girls burst into tears. But they didn't dare to move, because if they moved even a little bit, they would be completely submerged in the water.
Jiangbian raised his head slightly above the water and comforted him, "You two, hold on for a while longer, and I'll find a passage for you. Then he groped his way to the edge, assessed the terrain, and started digging a passage with his hands.
On land, it is not easy to dig a channel by hand, let alone underwater. In addition, where to put the excavated pebbles is also a huge problem. There's such a big space down here, and there's not much pebbles to pile up at all.
In addition, the space in the cabin is not large, so people on the riverside can only crawl on the bottom of the water and rely on their hands to move forward.
Although Jiangbian knew that there would definitely be people outside rescuing people, it was unrealistic to expect them to turn the boat over in a short time. Although there is a small space inside, Jiangbian knows that the oxygen there cannot last long. Once deprived of oxygen, the two girls' lives would be in immediate danger.
The hands on the riverside dug very fast, and the contact between the two hands that rarely engaged in farming was naturally not very pleasant, and the feeling of fingernails filled with fine sand was even less pleasant. However, Jiangbian seemed to be enjoying it, without any pause, and the speed seemed to be increasing all the time. @ws
