"The house is in such a state. The neighbors are already in their 50s. Even if they were close by, they would've come and looked for me immediately," the village official said anxiously. He was extremely flustered. "Nothing must happen. Nothing must happen."
Ye Jian's heart sank.
That meant that they didn't know if the four people buried in the house were dead or alive.
She reminded the village official, "Please run faster. The faster we go, the sooner we can save them. If we delay for a minute, the villagers buried below will be in danger for another minute."
"Okay, okay, okay. I'll run faster. The roads in the mountains are not easy to walk on. Be careful of your feet."
They took a shortcut. They were all walking on the farmland. The farmland was uneven, and it was raining heavily. If they were not careful, they would fall from the farmland into the paddy field below. Ye Jian looked at the farmland under her feet and said to Xu Wen, "Be careful. Don't miss a step."
