Chapter 548
If this temperature can last for a year or two, people can harvest one or two crops of food, and with the food in the ocean, the survivors can survive again.
On the fourth day, there were no more violent movements at the foot of the mountain, unlike the previous few days, when there were earthquakes, the sound of huge ice blocks breaking, and the roaring and rushing torrents... It was so loud that people couldn't sleep well at night.
Zhou Shuwan listened to the long-lost silence, and no matter what he was doing during the day, he would look down the mountain from time to time.
Not only her, Zhong Tiyun, Mu Mu and Grandma Pang were also uneasy.
A simple cover was formed on the boulder with a piece of cloth. Zhong Tiyun lay on the stretcher, and Zhou Shuwan took out a needle and pricked the acupuncture points on her waist.
This takes forty minutes and requires your full attention and dedication.
So when Mu Mu and Grandma Pang finally saw the figure they had been thinking about day and night walking up the mountainside, they still didn't make a sound.
Mu Mu limped forward a few steps with the help of a crutch, looking excitedly at his father's face which was obviously a little old.
Grandma Pang’s vision was already blurry.
Qi Mingyu half-supported Zhou Jianghai as he climbed up the mountain. When he saw Grandma Pang and Mu Mu, a hint of surprise flashed in his calm eyes.
However, Zhou Shuwan and mother-in-law were not there.
A shadow passed through his heart. He tried his best to suppress his inner anxiety and climbed up the mountain step by step with Zhou Jianghai.
When he reached the top and just stood there and was about to speak, Mu Mu shushed him first and pointed in the direction of Zhou Shuwan.
Through the thin cloth, you can see her giving acupuncture.
Qi Mingyu then understood why he didn't see the two of them.
Mu Mu lowered her voice and said, "Sister gives Mom acupuncture and massage every day. It takes forty to fifty minutes. She needs to concentrate fully when doing it, so we dare not make any noise."
This is a must-do treatment that needs to be done a few days in advance.
Zhou Shuwan also told the people from Tao Zheng and Chen Fen's team. They were all reasonable people, and Zhou Shuwan was also a doctor. Both parties had a lot of advantages and were naturally very conscious. Every time at this moment, they tried to keep quiet.
Tao Zheng and Zhao Caijuan also saw Qi Mingyu and Zhou Jianghai, and their faces were filled with surprise.
Tao Zheng's foot has almost recovered. During the few days he stayed in the mountains, Zhou Shuwan gave him massage and acupuncture every day, which greatly promoted blood circulation. Coupled with the warmer temperature, the wound healed faster.
He first silenced everyone and then pointed to the side.
Qi Mingyu glanced at the figure who was busy bending over inside the fence, then turned around and walked down the mountain with Tao Zheng and the others.
When I thought I couldn't hear them talking anymore at the top of the mountain, I told them the general situation.
"...Actually, these past few days have been quite dangerous. We're shorthanded, with only around three hundred people in total, and we don't even have the right tools. Luckily, they still had some shovels and hoes from digging through the base ruins to rescue people. I also brought a few automatic drills with me when I came down the mountain, and we divided them among ourselves. We figured the terrain, which gradually decreases from west to east, so we focused on intercepting the eastern side and ignored everything else, focusing solely on the ocean. As long as we could keep the water out of the ocean, we'd have a chance to breathe. We measured the distance, and besides the large rift and the low valley, there were still over forty miles of ditches we had to dig ourselves. We were shorthanded, so we could only do what we could. But unexpectedly, on the third day, two more teams arrived. They had heard about what was happening here and volunteered to help..."
Tao Zheng was a little surprised and asked, "Who are they? How many people are there?"
He got to the point right away.
Qi Mingyu's expression was solemn. "Actually, after the earthquake, the entire terrain of Blue Star underwent major changes. We were caught in the middle of it, but we didn't know it. One of the two teams was from the northwest. They originally had few buildings and a small population. Because of the high terrain, they had rarely experienced floods, and the extreme cold was much warmer than ours. But because of the earthquake, they suffered heavy casualties. When they learned of the sudden appearance of the sea, the entire base, including the elderly, weak and disabled, rushed to the coast. So when they heard about what was happening here, they took the initiative to come to help with vehicles, equipment, and people. There were about three thousand people."
