The soil mixed with the accumulated water on the mountain rushed forward.
Jiang Wan reacted quickly and pulled Song Jiuchi and Song Jiuli aside before running away.
Others were not so lucky. Some people who ran fast were fine, while those who ran slowly were directly involved in the mud.
Song Jiuli and Song Jiuchi looked at the people who were washed away in front of them, their faces pale with fear and their hearts lingering in fear.
Not to mention them, Song Jiuyuan and Mrs. Song not far away were also frightened and their hearts beat rapidly. Fortunately, the people they cared about were all fine.
"Lao San, Lao San!"
Mrs. Song was standing on one side, but now she rushed over with a slight trembling.
The scene was a bit chaotic for a while. Jiang Wan looked at Shen Qian who was a few steps away with disgust in her eyes.
Because she had just seen clearly that in order to survive, Shen Qian knocked Aunt Duan under the landslide.
It was probably going to be very bad at this moment, but Shen Qian's face was pale and she was so frightened that she didn't know what to do.
"Ms. sir, sir!"
Mrs. Song San collapsed and cried loudly. In addition to Aunt Duan, the Old Song family also lost another Song Laosan.
This is the consequence of not trusting Jiang Wan. Those who didn't run away after hearing Jiang Wan's reminder were basically not spared.
On the contrary, these officials and Chen Ce trusted Jiang Wan, and all of them had no danger.
Except for Aunt Duan's mistress, these two people really became a pair of wild mandarin ducks.
Jiang Wan stood there with heavy eyes, and Ren Bang walked over with regret on his face.
"It's my fault that I didn't listen to you before, otherwise this disaster could have been avoided."
He also lost a brother. At this moment, Ren Bang was heartbroken beyond measure, and his eyes were filled with grief.
Jiang Wan didn't know what to say. She sighed, "I made reasonable suggestions. I couldn't predict that things would actually happen."
The only thing she can do is to protect the people around her. As for the rest, there is nothing she can do.
"well!"
Ren Bang shook his head regretfully and did not dare to delay. He called for people to start saving people.
Worried that the slope would collapse again, Jiang Wan stood on one side and observed the situation, and Song Jiuli took a deep breath.
"Sister-in-law, thank you for saving me."
There were still tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, tears from the rest of her life.
Song Jiuchi, who had recovered from his daze, also thanked him in a low voice, "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
This was a heartfelt thank you, and it was also the first time he called her sister-in-law, which represented his recognition of Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan didn't pay attention to this. At this time, her eyes fell pitifully on the pile of mud and rocks, where several fresh lives were left.
If she had persisted at that time, she should have been able to avoid it. After all, she was lucky.
Madam Song and Mrs. Song helped dig the soil like crazy, and this time the officials had no time to talk to them.
It was only at this moment that Song Chen realized that there was still one person missing. He looked around, "Where is Aunt Duan?"
"But...maybe he was also suppressed."
Shen Qian's face was pale and bloodless, and her eyes were dull as she knelt on the ground, scared out of her wits.
"It was you, you must have killed her!"
Lady Song suddenly stepped forward, punched and kicked Shen Qian in disgust, and shouted.
"What will we do if you kill her? What will we eat?"
Jiang Wan only felt ridiculed. A second ago, she thought that Mrs. Song had some humanity, but it turned out that she was just afraid that Aunt Duan would die and no one would give them food.
If Aunt Duan knew this cruel truth, I wonder if she would still be willing to sacrifice herself for them.
Even the man she loved deeply only asked her a question without feeling any sadness at all.
"stop!"
Xu Wei grabbed the crazy Mrs. Song and protected Shen Qian. He was a little far away from Shen Qian just now, otherwise he would definitely save Shen Qian.
"This is our family matter, you don't have to worry about it!"
Song Chen gritted his teeth, anger rising in his eyes. One of his women killed another woman, but there was another man protecting his wife.
"It's wrong for you to hit people."
Xu Wei narrowed his eyes, "What happened just now was an accident and had nothing to do with her."
"It's up to us whether it's unexpected or not, so don't worry about it!"
Song Chen clenched his fists and glared at Shen Qian fiercely, making Shen Qian tremble with fear.
"Everyone, please calm down. If anyone dares to cause trouble, I will kill him!"
Ren Bang was waving a whip in his hand. He was so angry right now that he could beat anyone he caught.
Facing his angry gaze, no one dared to make a fuss anymore, they only calmed down and helped clear the road.
After finishing his work, Ren Bang gloomily recorded the death list and reasons in his notebook. A total of eight people died this time.
One officer sent seven prisoners, and some others were slightly injured. He noted that he would join forces with the officers to bury the dead on the spot.
Standing there, Jiang Wan felt sad when Song Jiuyuan on the side suddenly spoke.
"You...don't blame yourself, their deaths have nothing to do with you."
On the contrary, Jiang Wan reminded everyone before that he had actually saved many people invisibly.
He was worried that Jiang Wan would not be able to figure it out, so he comforted her with a few words.
Jiang Wan shook her head, her eyes complex, "I'm not blaming myself, I just feel that life is too fragile."
In the face of natural disasters, life is like a fragile porcelain doll, extremely fragile.
Song Jiuyuan did not refute this, but looked at the person in front of him with complicated eyes.
"Mom, you scared me to death just now."
Song Jiuli hugged Mrs. Song and cried. She was so frightened that she forgot to be sad.
Now looking at the new graves, I started to cry with lingering fear.
"Don't be afraid, mother is here."
Mrs. Song patted Song Jiuli's back to comfort her. Besides them, there were also relatives crying.
Some people resented Ren Bang because he insisted on leaving and this happened, but everyone didn't dare and could only swallow their breath silently.
After dealing with the bodies of these people, we still have to continue on the road. The road has been cleared and everyone just leaves.
However, there was still mud underfoot, and everyone was falling and beating all the way, making the atmosphere a bit depressing.
With sharp eyes, Jiang Wan noticed that Shen Qian was crying and following Xu Wei, and Xu Wei would gently comfort her from time to time.
But Song Chen actually held back and didn't say anything, just stared at them with heavy eyes.
Jiang Wan:......
Good guy, Aunt Duan is dead, and Shen Qian is responsible for it herself?
Jiang Wan was in a complicated mood, and Song Jiuli was full of curiosity, "Sister-in-law, why is Shen Qian so close to her husband?"
She hates Shen Qian, so naturally she pays attention to Shen Qian's every move just like Jiang Wan.
"You really want to know?"
Jiang Wan raised her eyebrows and said without mercy, "I'm afraid you'll want to vomit after you find out."
Song Jiuli:......
She blinked at Mrs. Song, who sighed quietly.
"Li'er, don't ask so many questions, let's just take care of our own affairs."
"All right."
Song Jiuli just shut up. It was just that he had experienced that scary thing. In fact, everyone was still frightened at this moment.
He was careful every few steps he took. It was actually not far from the village. Ren Bang planned to take everyone to the village to make some repairs. Jiang Wan's sharp eyes noticed that something was not right about Xu Wei.
