Chapter 179 Alive
After thoroughly investigating the cause of the debris flow, Li Jiang organized a group of officials and got busy at the origin of the debris flow. They must seize the time to stabilize the soil as soon as possible and intercept the torrent that may be caused by the next heavy rain. Otherwise, they will lose the yellow exposed under the vegetation. The land simply cannot withstand the frequent heavy rains here, and mudslides may happen again at any time.

And this is nothing short of a disaster for the local Shanhu people.

Fortunately, they had enough manpower. After a lot of work, they finally managed to stabilize the soil, and there should be no such horrific mudslides in a short time.

Li Jiang thought for a while, then ordered a nimble officer under him to rush to the local government office. He gave a brief report on the situation here and asked the government to send officials to plant a batch of new trees here as soon as possible.

This matter should have been handled by their group of escort officers, and it could be handed over directly to the local government. If the local people are in dire straits due to mudslides, then it is also the responsibility of the local government to hold them accountable.

After finishing this work, it was almost evening. After they packed up, they went straight back to their original resting place.

When they returned to the resting place, they heard a loud noise in the distance. Following the sound, they looked over and saw Mu Zhengbai jumping up and down there again.

Mu Zhengbai was not seen when they were counting people just now. Everyone acted as if nothing had happened and simply ignored Mu Zhengbai.

If a person like him dies in a mudslide, he will die a happy death, and the officials will not have to worry about this person not causing any trouble.

When he came back and saw that Mu Zhengbai was still alive and well, Wang Xiaoer accidentally glanced at Mu Yunxiao's cold expression, then curled his lips, snorted, and muttered: "Why is he still alive? .”

Mu Zhengbai was covered in tattered clothes and was standing in the crowd, jumping up and down and bragging: "God will not stop me! I should live my life well!"

Some prisoners were eating steamed buns and wanted to have some fun, so they called out, "Why are you still alive?"

As soon as he heard someone talking to him, Mu Zhengbai became more and more excited, with a triumphant smile on his old face, and shouted like a propaganda: "When the torrent rushed down, I saw several people climbing up the tree, and I also I quickly found a tree and climbed up. I tried my best to climb to the top of the tree. I was so scared that I lost my wits. A few unlucky trees were directly knocked down by mudslides. I was lucky because the tree I climbed was Everything is fine, nothing happened at all. Sure enough, God will not give up on me! My life is very precious!"

Mu Yunxiao didn't care that his nominal biological father was working as a clown there. He looked around the crowd several times, but he didn't see that familiar figure. He frowned subconsciously, feeling a little panicked.

He walked quickly to Mrs. Mutai's side, lowered his voice, and asked softly: "Grandma, where did Xiaohe go?"

Mrs. Mutai is old and ran away in panic today. All the energy in her body was exhausted. She was lying on the ground and resting. She could vaguely hear her grandson's cry in her drowsiness.

She opened her cloudy old eyes, looked at Mu Yunxiao, and sighed, "It's Xiao'er who's back. Xiaohe went to find someone with your third uncle."

Mrs. Mutai was also worried about Ruan He's safety and had been sitting there waiting for the couple to come back. However, after waiting for several hours without any news, she fell into a drowsy sleep.

Mu Yunxiao's expression suddenly changed, he quickly stood up and repeated in a deep tone: "Xiaohe went downstairs to find someone?"

The mudslide has just passed, and the torrent may not have flowed cleanly. It is quite dangerous to rush to low ground at this time.

Mrs. Mu Tai reluctantly opened her tired eyes, patted her grandson's hand soothingly, and said warmly: "Don't worry, Xiaohe is very thoughtful, nothing will happen." Mu Yunxiao hesitated for a moment, then calmed down. He nodded slowly. In his worry, he forgot that his wife had great abilities. Even with that small space that she could enter and exit at any time, she could be kept safe and sound.

Despite this, Mu Yunxiao turned around and walked towards the lower mountain road, leaving only a calm word.

"I'll go find her."

"Xiao'er, please be safe." Mrs. Mutai really couldn't control the thoughts of the juniors, so she could only sigh helplessly and warned them from a distance.

Before Mu Yunxiao could walk a few steps, there were already bursts of hurried footsteps coming from the mountain path. He looked up and met Ruan He's anxious eyes.

"Where is Mr. Li?" Ruan He met him head-on and asked hurriedly as if he was in a hurry to do something.

Li Jiang heard Ruan He's call and walked out quickly. Seeing Ruan He's hurried appearance, he asked, "Mr. Mu, I'm here, what's the matter?"

"We found the prisoner who was still alive and buried him in the rocks. Quickly bring a few people with us to dig out the rocks and save him!"

"Yes, yes!" Mu Zhengyuan urged now as he no longer had the slump he had in the morning. His eyes were bright and there was a bit of joy in his expression.

They followed Panda's guidance and walked all the way to the lower ground. After the debris flow passed, a large amount of sand, gravel and soil were washed down and accumulated downstream of the flood, forming a thick layer.

As soon as he got there, Panda seemed to have discovered something. He screamed at the bottom of a thick stone wall and jumped up and down excitedly.

When Ruan He and the others hurriedly came forward to check, they immediately heard slight breathing coming from inside, and even vague calls for help!

The two of them tried to pull the huge stone wall apart, but they couldn't move it with all their strength, so they had to come back and ask the official for help.

The people inside have been trapped for a whole day. If the delay continues, I don't know if they can continue to persevere.

By the time Li Jiang led a group of officials and rushed over behind Ruan He, the sky was already darkening.

They came with shovels and other tools. Panda showed his excellent guiding ability. He jumped out of Ruan He's hand and jumped up and down on a pile of ordinary rubble.

"Just dig here." Ruan He took a step forward, grabbed Panda from the ground, and greeted the officials on the side.

With people and tools, they dug up quite quickly. After a while, the gravel on top had been cleaned up, and the faint cry of the children inside could be heard.
