Chapter 650: Digging
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Little girl, there’s rubble and dust everywhere here. You should go to the side and wait, lest your beautiful dress is covered in dust!” Seeing that Ah Yu wanted to move closer to the cave-in, General Hua grabbed her collar and carried her to the back.
Ah Yu kicked her hands and feet, but she didn’t want to perform martial arts in public, so she could only say, “General Hua, I have good hearing. I can hear how many people are under the cave-in and know where they are!”
When General Hua heard this, he really let go of Ah Yu, but he looked skeptical. “Little girl, this is a matter of life and death. It’s not like you children playing house. You can’t joke about it.”
“It’s true. General, you might not know this, but I originally heard someone talking about the collapse of this mine, so I thought of looking for you,” All Yu hurriedly said. “It’s been a day and a night since the collapse. We don’t know what’s going on inside. The earlier we confirm the location, the more people we can save. Don’t you think so?”
At this moment, some soldiers also replied, “General, let this little girl try. This place has completely collapsed, and we’re clumsy. If we get the wrong place and dig out a living human head with a shovel, won’t that—”
At the thought of that scene, everyone couldn’t help but tremble.
If the people inside were still alive and they didn’t notice and killed them accidentally, that would be tragic!
General Hua thought of his daughter. She had also clamored to go to the battlefield with him when she was eight or nine years old. Now that she was married, she also had a fiery temper and was very similar to the little girl in front of him.
Although she was a little naughty, she did things in a methodical manner. She was not someone who would mess around.
General Hua made a prompt decision and put All Yu down. He patted her shoulder and pushed her forward. “Then go. Remember not to treat human lives lightly.”
Ah Yu almost staggered from his push. In the end, she followed the other soldiers.
As for General Hua, he brought two personal guards to capture those leaders who had fled.
She heard the cries of some people from afar and learned that some of them were the families of those people. Most of the people in the mine were poor people who had been scammed, but some were from the surrounding villages. They couldn’t bear to part with their salary, so even if they worked hard and couldn’t earn much, they gritted their teeth and came.
A single copper coin was enough to stump a hero.
“Uncles, Aunts, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, don’t cry!” Ah Yu simply walked up to these people and shouted.
Everyone saw that it was a little girl about ten years old. She was not dressed very well, but it was obvious that she was the daughter of a rich family. When they looked at the burly sheep beside her, they were all frightened.
For a moment, they really stopped crying.
Ah Yu continued, “Now is not the time to cry. Your families, other people’s families, and good friends are still trapped inside. Instead of wasting your strength crying here, why don’t you go with us to save them? The earlier we save them, the more hope they have of survival.”
An old man said, “Girl, it’s not that we don’t want to move, but we don’t dare to! The soil there is loose and will collapse if we dig. We don’t dare to dig it.”
“I have a way. Just follow my instructions.” Ah Yu knew that she had to give everyone confidence at this moment and let them trust her, so she vowed, “Everyone in our village says that I’m a blessed child. I’ll dig with you and save them. I’ll pass some of my blessings to them and let the immortals bless them to turn misfortune into fortune!”
In order to make the effect realistic, Meatbail even quickly ordered a glowing tube, making All Yu glow faintly.
In the eyes of the villagers, it was as if divine light had landed on her. On a closer look, they would discover that there was nothing.
It played a psychological role.
It was useless to reason with these villagers. Instead, it was better to use these strange effects.
Ah Yu struck while the iron was hot and repeated Old Madam Wang’s usual words to fool everyone. She finally comforted these people for the time being and brought a large number of people who were willing to help.
She brought a group of people to a place without any signs of a landslide. Then, she pointed at a tree and said, “Pull out this tree first and puli out the roots. Dig from here.”
Everyone was originally a little puzzled and wanted to ask, but they saw that the sheep seemed to understand and ran to the side of the tree, its four hooves digging quickly.
Ah Yu ignored those people and casually took a shovel before lowering her head and starting to dig.
The others looked at each other, not knowing if they should follow.
The collapsed mine was very far from here. Was it useful?
“Come quickly, what are you waiting for!” The soldiers reacted and followed him to work..
