Chapter 491

Luckily, Evie held Sylvia timely, "Boss, watch out!"

Sylvia nodded and went to the boy with Evie, "Good boy, we are rescue

workers. Give us your mother, okay?"

When the little boy saw Sylvia, he shed more tears, "Save my mother,

please!"

Sylvia crouched down and immediately reached out her hand under the

woman's nostril. Noticing that the woman was breathing faintly, she

immediately took the medical kit from Jaden's hand. To prevent the

medicines inside the medical kit from getting wet by the rain, Jaden had

been holding the medical kit in his arms.

The medical kit was still warm.

Sylvia quickly took the infrared thermometer from inside, "She has a

fever as high as 39 degrees centigrade! Someone sends her and the

boy down the hill!"

She said as she quickly fed a fever-reducing pill to the young woman,

"Hurry up and send them down! No delay!"

She looked at the little boy, "Good boy, you're awesome! Follow the

uncle. You know?"

The little boy nodded hurriedly.

It was only when he saw Sylvia and the others that his nerves finally

relaxed.

One of the men immediately came over and carried the young woman

on his back, turned around and went down the hill, and the young boy

immediately followed.

Sylvia led the way and continued walking up the mountain for about

another half hour or so when a familiar man's voice suddenly came to

her ears.

"Everyone, we must save all the people trapped in the mountain before

the upstream water floods down. Otherwise, we will be dead if the flood

breaks out!"

It was Franklin speaking!

Sylvia glanced behind her, "Let's go faster and rendezvous with

Franklin. There are people buried under the rocks up there!"

As the mountain road was really hard to walk on. They tried their best

to walk faster, but it was still very difficult.

After walking for a while, Sylvia looked up again and saw the tall,

slender back of a man halfway up a hill, with Jasper and dozens of

other men behind him.

Sylvia looked at the familiar figure and couldn't help but feel her nose

twitch.

It was an incredible feeling.

She had no idea that one day she and Franklin would team up in this

way.

The man stood with his back to her, and his voice was strong, "We

must dig out all these rocks to save the people buried underneath.

Jasper, once they were dug up, probably the flood would pour down

and then wash away this mountain.”

“If this mountain got washed away, everyone inside the hillside camp

would be in danger.” Jasper went on and said, "Master Franklin, what

do we do now? Should we save others? Or..."

"If they were dead at the bottom of this mountain rock, we do not have

to save them. But if they are all alive, we can't leave them here and get

them buried alive, can we?"

Before Franklin had a chance to speak, he heard a woman's cold voice

suddenly come from behind him, ringing in the pouring rain.

"Miss Andrews?" Jasper looked in shock at the woman who was

walking towards them.

Franklin couldn't help but turn around and see Sylvia walking quickly

towards them with her raincoat on, "Honey? Why are you here too?"

Weren't they divided into two groups? How did they end up being here?

"We must save them!" Sylvia looked at all the people here. "All of us

are the best, and I believe that none of us will retreat because of the

difficulty. Get the people out before the flood broke out. Then find a way

to move rocks to block the gap!"

"As you say, we must race against time," Franklin said, stepping

forward and lifting the shovel to dig out the rocks, "There are many of

us now, so let's do it together hurriedly.”

Then all these people began to wield a shovel and dig these rocks out.

Those who had no shovel carried the stones, barehanded.

There were several people buried under these rocks which must be

dug out!

Sylvia did not hesitate and reached out her hands to carry the stone,

and when her bleeding hands were stretched out, Franklin only felt

them a real eyesore!

The man lifted his palm and grabbed Sylvia's hands, "Are you stupid?

Your hands get hurt!"

"It's okay. I don't hurt at all.” Sylvia shook her head, and just then,

suddenly, a hand was revealed under these rocks!

That hand was still moving!

Jasper and Evie worked even harder until they pulled the first one out

of there.

There was thin air inside, and several people's faces were blue.

Especially since they hadn't eaten for days and nights and were very

weak.

After everyone rescued the injured villagers from under the rocks,

suddenly, the sound of torrential water came.

Immediately afterwards, a person's cry for help was heard, "Help ...

Save me ..."

Every now and then his voice was drowned out by the current.

Sylvia raised her eyes in surprise and looked down towards the ground,

only to hear the sound coming from behind the mountain wall.

There was a crack in the wall of the mountain, and from time to time the

water sound rang out from behind the crack.

Water was constantly gushing out from the crack of the mountain wall

which probably about 30 centimeters wide, "What's going on? There

seems to be someone behind the mountain!"

Sylvia sounded anxious.

Although it felt close at this point, but it took a long while to walk around

this mountain towards the other side .

Sylvia had seen the map. The flood would break out on the other side

of the mountain. They had been prepared to fill the crack of 30

centimeters.

If it was not filled, the flood would break through this crack and then the

flood would involve more victims, drowned all the villages below the

mountain and the tents they had set up on the slopes.

But ... there were people behind the mountain.

And if they waited until after they went around, those victims would be

washed away or directly out of breath.

They must seize the time.

Franklin gave a direct order, "Split the mountain to save the people!"

"Boss, if the mountain splits, what about those people down the

mountain and in the tents?" Jasper wiped the rain from his face and

said anxiously, "Do we have to bet so many lives to save one person?”

“Look at me!" Evie suddenly waved a shovel and rushed over, "Let me

split open a gap of about sixty centimeters, and after that, we'll hurry to

fill this gap.”

She struck the stone with the shovel. Then an ear-splitting sound rang

out.

The shovel was way more fragile compared to the mountain wall, and

with a bang, it broke!

Jasper couldn't help but turn down the corners of his mouth. This girl

was weirdly powerful!

This girl looked sweet, but her force was a little too much, right?

Evie, the girl with so much force, looked at the shovel handle in her

hand, feeling regretful, "Holy shit? What's wrong with it? It's broken!"

Sylvia glanced at her, "No more joking! We take the rock crusher here.

Hurry up to get the gap a bit bigger. Don't waste our time."

Several men then rushed over carrying the rock crusher, and the steel

drill bit pointed at the hard rock began to buzz.

Franklin was observing the way the water flowed, while directing

several men to rescue the villagers and take them to a safe place.

"They are very weak now. Hurry up and take them back for treatment.”

"Yes!"

More and more water gushed out of the widening gap that was split

open.
