Bai Fumei in the ’70s Chapter 53

Translated by Serena Love


Zhao Lanxiang's heart seemed to shatter following the rumbling explosion.

Her face is white, she madly grabbed the collar of Hu Xianzhi, and shouted loudly, "You say it again!"

"What happened to him?"

However, the continuous roar of explosions had already concealed her voice, and Hu Xianzhi could only see her closed mouth, her face is as pale as a piece of paper.

At this moment, there is no need to hear what she is saying. Her collapsed expression has already explained everything.

Hu Xianzhi, an eight-foot-tall man, bowed his head silently.

Zhao Lanxiang just felt her head buzzing and her chest was so painful that she couldn't breathe.

Why did he stay on the mountain?

Zhao Lanxiang's eyes are black, she is almost fainting.

She bit her tongue, the mountain is still trembling slightly, and Zhao Lanxiang couldn't help but rush back up.

Sister He stood beside her and hugged her hard and firm, her cheek pressed against her.

After a while, Sister He felt a warm and wet face has rolled into her neck. She touched Zhao Lanxiang, silently comforting her younger brother's sweetheart.

His sad and lonely unrequited love maybe not really unrequited.

But... he may not know.

"Let me go, let me go!"

Sister He covered Zhao Lanxiang's mouth, and her other hand wrapped her waist.

Hu Xianzhi said, "It is impossible to enter the mountain now. The mountain has collapsed, it is very dangerous!"

The scene was chaotic, and there is crying everywhere. Zhao Lanxiang is not too eye-catching here.

The members who evacuated to the safety zone couldn't help but feel their back cold. Although they only saw the dust clouds blooming in the air, the trembling of the mountains visible to the naked eye scared the experienced old people who had experienced mudslides during the rainy season.

At this moment, the workers who had evacuated from the mountain erupted in wailing, and their compatriots, brothers, and even teachers were still on the mountain. The director of the Hezi Village Women's Federation asked each family to count their members. At this time, a few talents found that they were missing a few people.

Sister Li suddenly burst into a beast-like howl, "Ahua. My dear girl, my good Ahua. Mother put you on the mountain! Mother is a beast!"

She grabbed Li'er punching and kicking like crazy, and wished that she could devour her sister-in-law.

"You brought her to the site!"

"Ahua should sleep peacefully at home today! You are a bitch, rotten goods, you brought her to the construction site, I swear at your mother!"

Li'er did not want to be outdone and yelled back.

"I ran in to save your girl, you dare to hit me?"

The two women were entangled in a fight.

The one who vowed to say "He is responsible for something wrong", Li Dehong, who was supposed to go in to save his granddaughter, his heart has fallen to the sole of his feet.

He stared at the collapsed mountain in a daze.

If it wasn't for Li Dali to rush in, the one who would enter the mountain was him...

There are wailing and weeping sounds everywhere. Some are sad for relatives who may die, others are sad for friends, apprentices, and teachers, and some are sorrowful for fields that they have been working hard for months.

Even the old bull in the brigade who stayed on the mountain and so tired that he didn't want to move, someone cried for it.

At the same time in the Heshan mountain next door, the rocks that were holding water were also exploded, and the abundant water flowed out from the cracks in the broken rocks, winding down the criss-crossing ditches, like silver ribbons under the bright sun.

The clear water sparkled and dazzled.

The farmer looked at Heshan mountain, which have successfully passed the water, and then looked at the devastated Niujiao Mountain, and their tears fall even more.

After a long time, the mountain finally returned to calm. Zhao Lanxiang broke away from Sister He and ran into the mountain first.

The workers also rushed in.

The rest of the members that just escaped the aftermath, also hesitated and rushed in.

The director of the Women's Federation yelled, "Everyone follow those people and go to the mountain to save people."

There are still fine stones rolling down from the rock peaks, and the air is filled with the smell of thick dust. She ran down the mountain road to the blasting zone and stopped immediately. What remained is a devastated pit. Splashed spring water poured down, blocking people's progress.

Zhao Lanxiang witnessed all of this with her own eyes, feeling distraught, and immediately fainted.

Sister He entrusted someone to look after Sanya, looking for her dear brother sadly and dazedly.

She saw a man buried by rocks, only revealing the man's arms and feet.

Sister He dug frantically, and finally found that the man's face is bloody and indistinguishable. She touched his exposed feet again. There were no scars, it is not her brother.

She wiped her tears away and continued to look for people.

Sister Li quickly found her Ahua. Ahua's weak cry came from the stone crack.

Several people worked together to move the stone out carefully, and found that their beloved captain was arching his body and guarding the child tightly. Bright red blood flowed all over the place.

The captain's family fell to the ground, crying so much that their throats broke.

"I'm angry, I'm angry!"

"Don't cry anymore, it's important to go to the hospital as soon as possible!"

Li Dali's second brother Li Daniu and his third brother, Li Dama, worked together to lift the man down the mountain, and the director of the Women's Federation called a tractor over and asked him to take the man in the car to the hospital.

The tractor driver waited for a while, and the members successively carried a few dying people over, and only then he started the diesel engine and rush to the hospital.

Sister He is still digging, digging tirelessly.

She couldn't imagine how sad it will be if Grandma knew her brother is gone.

While digging the stone, she sobbed and shed tears, thinking about how to hide it. But not sure how she dig, she keeps digging, her digging hand is scalded and bleeding. Other people's relatives have been dug out, but her brother Bai is still missing.

There are still workers who have been unable to dig out people. They may have fallen into a crack in the rock, or they may have sunk to the bottom of the lake...

Sister He is digging, sorrowful, her face was broken with sadness, and she was patted on the shoulder.

She keeps digging tirelessly.

Her shoulder was patted again, and then the person who patted her shoulder said.

"Sister, I'm here!"

"Don't dig anymore, I'm fine!"

Sister He turned stunned, and saw her lively, unscathed younger brother, whose lifeless eyes are infused with vitality.

He led the old cow she has raised. The old cow is breathing happily, licking her clothes. There is a fainted person on the cow's back.

He Songbai patted her shoulder and said, "Don't cry."

"I'm fine."

Sister He hugged her younger brother suddenly and wailed.

He Songbai patted her head helplessly and asked, "Where are the others?"

Sister He wiped away her tears and pointed to one side happily and sadly.

He Songbai soon saw his girlfriend lying on the ground. His face changed, he dropped the reins in his hand and ran over.

He thought that something had happened to the girl, so he squatted down and probed her breath, and saw her curled eyelashes tremble.

He Songbai's heart fell to the ground, and he could not laugh or cry and pinched her forcibly.

After a while, the woman lying on the ground opened her eyes.

She stared at him for a while before suddenly rushing into his arms, cuddling his neck.

"Scared me, you scared me."

"Why are you so bad, you made me so sad."

He Songbai touched her hair and patted comfortably.

"Don't cry, make a joke in front of the children."

Zhao Lanxiang wiped her tears and quickly released the man.

He Sanya stared at them embarrassingly, as if she has understood something. But all this was rushed away by the joy of the elder brother is alive. After her sister Zhao let go of her eldest brother, He Sanya hugged her elder brother's neck without thinking.

Her nose and tears were wiped on him, and she started howling.

...

After he went down the mountain, He Songbai was not in a hurry to go home, but happily picked some tender grass and moved to the cowshed to feed the old cow. He touched the cow's head and said, "Thanks to you."

He picked up the tender grass and fed it to the cow. "This is a reward for you. There will be more tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I will give you enough to eat."

He Songbai didn't tell anyone, the feeling of almost losing his life still echoed in his chest.

He only came down the mountain when it was twelve-fifteen. At the last moment, he stunned Sun Xiang in one strike, and persuaded the other three workers to follow him down the mountain. Before he left, he pulled Wang Yang away with great strength.

Grandma said that intellectuals must be respected no matter what age. But there are both good and bad intellectuals. He Songbai pities those hard-working workers who did not leave.

He saved the two engineers because he thought that someone has to live to reflect on the mistakes they made for a lifetime.

The explosion started just before he reached the foot of the mountain. Wang Yang and the three workers who were reluctant to be taken away ran faster than anyone else.

He Songbai, who was carrying a person, is slightly slower and fell behind by a distance. Seeing that the rocks were crumbling and the dust was raising, at this time his old cow ran down in a panic. He Songbai quickly grabbed the old cow, threw the man to the back of the cow, and ran down the mountain with the cow.

On the way to escape... Wang Yang was hit by a boulder and his legs could no longer move. Everyone cherished their own life. He Songbai got himself in danger to save their lives. However, their behavior of just focusing on their own escape made He Songbai's heart chills.

This time, He Songbai didn't stop and didn't look back. He has to keep his life. His life was very precious. When something happened to him, the grandma would worry, the elder sister and younger sister would cry and the girlfriend would be sad.

After the shaking of the mountain stopped, He Songbai was relieved and went to dig out Wang Yang with several workers. The reason why he reported safety to his family so late was entirely because digging Wang Yang has spent a lot of time.

After He Songbai comforted the little girl, it was inconvenient to coax the girlfriend in front of everyone, so he secretly stuffed a few wild fruits for her to eat. These fruits are wild fruits on the high mountain cliffs. The tree was uprooted and fell, and the wild fruits were fat and juicy, rosy and lovely.

At this time, there is still the mood to pick fruit to eat, Zhao Lanxiang is a little bit dumbfounded.

She gave He Songbai a glance, she had no strength to lose her temper, and she has no more temper to hate the people he saved.

Because someone else helped her hate them. The families of those workers who died, saw the four engineers and wanted to tear them up. Except for Wang Yang, who broke his leg and was sent to the hospital, the remaining three were beaten in turn. Wu Yong, who did blasting for Heshan mountain, received less beating, because there was nothing wrong with Heshan mountain.

Sun Xiang was stunned by He Songbai and was left at the foot of the mountain for a long time before waking up. When he woke up, he found his hands in cold handcuffs and was taken away by the police for questioning.

He didn't understand why this happened, but he seemed to understand something from the angry eyes of the villagers.

He understood that his life was saved by a farmer. Sun Xiang's lips twitched, and his eyes looked at the teacher standing in the crowd with complicated eyes. He said a few words to the police, and the police only agreed to give him a few minutes.

Sun Xiang walked to Teacher Gu. He is guilty and whispered, "Teacher, I'm sorry."

Gu Huaijin said indifferently, "Go to the prison to reform and reflect on your mistakes."

Before leaving, his weak voice was almost drowned in the air, "And... be careful of Wu Yong."

Gu Huaijin heard this, and said lightly, "Just look after yourself."

The members dug in the mountain for a whole day, and until late at night. Shouting and searching while using oil lamps. As of the early morning of the next day, a total of eight people were missing, nine people were seriously injured, and four others were slightly injured...
