I really don't want to be red

Chapter 487 Alive
As soon as they entered the scene, An Ran and others threw themselves into intense rescue efforts.

The suddenly collapsed houses formed a messy scene, and there were mountains of ruins everywhere, making it extremely difficult to clean up.

Broken stones and bricks completely covered the underground of the house.

The woman was helping at the side, regardless of her weakness, struggling to clean up the rubble and broken bricks in the ruins.

After more than two hours of cleaning, everyone was sweating profusely, but the ruins seemed to never be cleaned up.

Because the roads are impassable, heavy machinery and equipment cannot come in, and the cleaning is all manual.

The ruins that are too large are hammered, and the smaller ones are moved by hand.

Shovel chopping, steel brazing prying.

In half an afternoon, only a small part of the ruins were cleared, and the large ruins below were buried solidly.

Many people have actually given up hope.

When it was dark, the woman suddenly looked at Zhao Ming and said, "Forget it... It's been three days, and the child may be gone if you take it apart!"

An Ran looked over in surprise, the woman's face was full of despair.

The whole person seemed to become depressed all of a sudden, and tears kept rolling down his dusty face.

A few people didn't know what to say. There was a 90% chance that the child was dead.

An Ran pushed hard against the ruined wall, "If you don't take a look, how do you know if it's alive or dead!"

It was already dark at this time, and someone had already found a tree branch to light a torch, and the emergency lights brought by the rescue team were illuminated.

In other places, because the environment is too dangerous, it is easy to be dangerous after dark, and the rescue has been stopped at night.

Seeing that An Ran and the others were still busy here, everyone rushed over.

Although very tired, no one said they were tired, and they all silently threw themselves into the rescue.

Even Xu Xuejun gritted his teeth and persisted.

At around eight o'clock in the evening, when An Ran moved half of the wall, she heard faint crying coming from inside!
He shouted in surprise and joy: "Stop!"

Unknown to everyone, they stopped their work and looked at An Ran.

An Ran took off her helmet, lay down on the collapsed wall, put her ears on it, and listened carefully to the sounds behind her.

"Woooooo... Mom..."

Although the sound was very weak and intermittent, it could be heard clearly, it was the cry of a child.

An Ran stood up and shouted excitedly, "The child is still alive, the child is still alive!"

Cheers erupted at the rescue site.

The woman covered her mouth excitedly, the tears could not stop at all.

Everyone speeds up the progress.

The first survivor, this is the first survivor they found after arriving in Liangshui County today.

The speed of cleaning was accelerated, blood blisters appeared on everyone's hands, arms and legs were hung to pieces by steel wires in the ruins, and dust was all over their faces.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the half of the wall was finally cleared away.

Below is a small space supported by beams.

The air got in and was convected out, and now everyone could clearly hear the crying of the child inside.

The woman shouted excitedly at the entrance of the space: "Xiaorui, don't cry, mom is here!"

"mom!"

There was a heart-piercing cry, followed by the sound of a child crying.

Zhao Ming shouted: "Keep up, it will come out soon!"

People from the rescue team rushed forward to clean up the ruins.

At around 11 o'clock, the child was finally rescued from the inside.

An Ran holds the child.

The child's face was covered with snot and tears, which wiped An Ran's body.

But the moment he took out the child, the whole ruins cheered.

This is the first survivor rescued by Liangshui County after the earthquake.

The child's mother took the child tremblingly, and the child firmly held a small half of cake and an empty drink bottle in his hands.

Three days!

During these three days, the child survived on bread and drink.

Fortunately, the child was greedy and happened to have pancakes and drinks in his hand at the time, otherwise the result would be hard to tell.

The child's mother hugged the child and knelt down in front of everyone.

Zhao Ming quickly pulled her up.

The scene was chaotic for a while before everyone called it a day.

It is dark now, the rescue equipment is insufficient, and the power of the emergency lights is not enough. The power restoration in Liangshui County does not know the year of the monkey.

And there are ruins everywhere, which are in danger of collapsing at any time.

Not suitable for continued rescue.

By this time, An Ran and the others had time to sit and lean against the corner to drink water and eat.

A group of people sat together, with a burning bonfire in the middle.

Zhao Ming suddenly said: "Teacher An, I usually like to hear you sing, so let's sing a song for everyone!"

An Ran smiled and said: "No problem, but our instruments and everything are left in Linzhou, and we didn't bring them here, so we can only sing a cappella!"

"It's okay, as long as Teacher An can sing!"

An Ran looked at Zhao Ming and the other rescue team members and said, "So you were all soldiers before!"

Many people in the rescue team nodded in response.

"Yeah, I was a soldier for five years, and I went to the fire brigade when I came back!"

"I've been working for three years!"

"Hey, I served eight years, and I was already a lieutenant when I retired!"

"Now that I think about it, I really like the days when I was a soldier!"

"Why, is Teacher An going to sing a special song for us?"

Just when the crowd was about to quiet down, An Ran suddenly sang.

"My old monitor

will you still think of me
I haven't received your letter for a long time

I still miss you often
You say you like me listening to me play the guitar

Singing the song of our barracks..."

As soon as the song started, everyone fell into memories.

Many members of the rescue team were soldiers. After listening to An Ran's song, I miss those days even more.

Although there is no music, no accompaniment.

And because of the desperate rescue all afternoon, An Ran's voice was not very good, and her singing voice was hoarse, but everyone still fell into the singing.

At least it's a song that resonates with everyone.

Unknowingly, everyone beat the beat with the rhythm.

Rescue operations are full of unknowns and dangers, and no one knows what the final result will be.

The simple, warm and touching lyrics make those who have served in the army miss the lingering brotherhood.

Some people shed tears while laughing along with the singing.

Those memories and the past all appeared in my mind, seeming to be very close and yet far away.

A group of people gathered around the fire and listened to An Ran's singing.

In the distance, the surviving people in Liangshui County were watching them silently.

Some people took out their mobile phones and recorded the scene and the singing.

Maybe this is their last night of relative tranquility. When the rescue work is fully launched, I'm afraid there will be no time to sleep.

Soon, An Ran finished singing a song.

Everyone applauded.

Zhao Ming's eyes were red, "People say that Mr. An is a tear gas in the music world, and he really deserves his reputation. When a song comes up, it makes me cry!"

The people present laughed "haha", and the atmosphere suddenly became more relaxed.

A relatively young rescue team member said: "Mr. An, you teach us this song, we all really want to learn it..."
