If the previous five bodies were not enough to motivate the people to participate in the rescue, then the death of the little boy was undoubtedly a shot in the arm, making everyone red-eyed, and the rescue action naturally became faster and faster.

The sun rises and sets.

Only the cold wind remains unabated.

The people who participated in the rescue came in batches.

Gradually, many survivors were rescued.

Chan Yi, along with the doctors and shop assistants from Huimin Pharmacy, rushed around in the Third Alley, the Fifth Alley and the ground to save people without ever touching the ground.

Chen Shao also traveled to three places, not only participating in the rescue personally, but also adjusting the rescue plan at any time.

Finally, at 2:15 am on the second day, with the unremitting efforts of hundreds of people, the rescue passages connecting Alley 3, Alley 5 and the ground were opened. At 5:00 am, the rescue passages connecting Alley 3 and Alley 5 were also opened.

Accompanied by the cheers of thousands of people, the rescue work was moving faster and faster.

“Miss Chan Yi!” Chan Yi worked with Chen Shao to help bandage the people who had just been rescued. Then a doctor in Alley 5 hurriedly shouted, “Come here quickly. An old lady has a broken waist. We need you to come over and diagnose her!”

When Chan Yi heard this, she immediately rushed towards the Fifth Alley. Halfway through, she quickly stopped and called Chen Shao, "Master!"

After Chen Shao quickly explained a few precautions for follow-up care to the clerk at Huimin Pharmacy, he followed her to the Fifth Lane.

As more and more people were rescued, the fact that she knew medical skills became common knowledge among the doctors and shop assistants at Huimin Pharmacy and the people of Shipailou.

Of course, she mainly helped Chan Yi.

"This way!" As soon as Chan Yi arrived at the Fifth Alley, she was quickly brought to an old lady by the doctor from Huimin Pharmacy. "She was fine when she was first rescued. I tried the method you mentioned before to stop the bleeding, but it didn't stop."

The old lady was about fifty years old, and her body from the waist down was a bloody mess. Chan Yi squatted down, quickly checked her injuries, and after giving her a few more injections, she looked up at Chen Shao and shook her head.

Chen Shao squatted down and was about to check the injury when she suddenly caught a glimpse of a cold light. Without thinking, she pulled Chan Yi over and kicked the man away.

Chan Yi also reacted very quickly.

The moment the man was kicked away, she also flew up, and at the same time she knocked the dagger out of the man's hand with her toes, she spun around and stepped on the man heavily.

In order to save people, Chen Shao early dispatched the few Yulin guards who followed her to help everywhere. Although no one was by her side when the incident happened, when Chan Yi took action, they reacted quickly and rushed over from all directions, surrounding the murderer and the surrounding people.

Among them, Li Tianliu and Fu Jiu were the fastest.

Li Tianliu quickly looked at Chan Yi, then at Chen Shao. After making sure that neither of them was injured, he looked at the attacker.

Fu Jiuze went straight to the attacker as soon as he arrived. He grabbed the attacker's collar and lifted him up from the ground. Seeing his sinister smile, he shouted "Don't even think about it" and immediately pinched his mouth.

The black blood at the corner of the murderer's mouth flowed out before him.

As early as the moment he was kicked away by Chen Shao, the murderer had already bitten the poison hidden under his tongue.

“Damn it!” Fu Jiu threw the man back to the ground angrily.

Li Tianliu squatted down, pinched the murderer and checked the poison in his mouth, then searched his back from top to bottom, glanced at the frightened people around him, and whispered to Chen Shao: "It's the secret guard."

Secret guard.

Chen Shao walked forward slowly, looking down at the murderer. He knew without a second thought that the murderer was sent by the prince's party of the previous dynasty, but... Chen Shao glanced at Chan Yi obscurely. Why was the secret guard's target Chan Yi and not her?

"You have nothing on you?" Chen Shao asked.

"No." Li Tianliu said simply.

"Then let's continue the rescue." Chen Shao turned around decisively, signaled the Yulin Guards to move aside, and said to the people, "The Zhu, Gu, and Fan families were raided by me, and their families have hired assassins to avenge them. Don't worry about it, just continue to rescue people. Only if we act faster, the people trapped underground will have a better chance of survival."

As she said this, she was the first to return to the rescue scene.

Li Tianliu gave a wink, and the three Yulin guards followed her consciously.

Fu Jiu wanted to ask if they should check the people who were being rescued to see if there were any secret guards among them, but Li Tianliu stood up first and clasped his fists towards the crowd of doubtful people, saying, "When you are rescuing people, please help check if everyone around is from Shipailou. If there are any unfamiliar faces, please let us know as soon as possible. Thank you!"

As he bowed, the people finally relaxed, looked around, shouted words like "definitely", and rejoined the rescue operation.

The rescue operation lasted for three days.

Thanks to Chen Shao's frequent visits, most people followed to watch the fun. Even so, among the thirteen families whose ground collapsed, twenty-seven people were killed and only eight were rescued.

Among the eight people, except for the little girl who was rescued first, the other seven were injured to varying degrees. After arranging for people to send them to Huimin Pharmacy for recuperation, Chen Shao spent another two days personally presiding over the funeral of the twenty-seven people before stopping to concentrate on directing the subsequent arrangements.

In fact, she doesn't need to give orders.

On the second day of the rescue, under the call of Liu Yi, Liu Deming's father, people from various villages and towns began to send cattails and wood to the Shipailou. Over the next few days, more and more villages and towns sent cattails and wood, and the cattails and wood were piled up inside and outside the Shipailou.

On the second day after she presided over the funeral of twenty-seven people, the students who handled Zhuangzi's affairs and Liu Zizhuang's people also came back one after another. Under their command and with united efforts, thatched houses had been connected into a cluster in the open spaces around the shipai archway.

Chen Shao walked around the thatched house and saw that they had taken into consideration all aspects such as traffic, fire, and flood when building it. While feeling relieved, he also reminded them, "The weather is getting colder day by day. Whether it is for covering or laying, make the thatch as thick as possible. If there is not enough thatch, use umbrella paper to sandwich a layer between the thatch. Make sure to do a good job of keeping out the cold."

Tao Ming immediately stepped forward and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to find so many umbrella papers at this time."

"Then go find Miss Quan and send a notice to gather all the craftsmen who will make umbrella paper. Let them work harder recently and try to get all the needed umbrella paper out before the heavy snow comes." Chen Shao finished the arrangement slowly. Just as Tao Ming was about to volunteer to find Quan Shuyu, Chan Yi stopped him and said, "Let Liu Deming go. His father has been doing business outside the prefectural government and should know many craftsmen."

"Then I'll go now!" After looking at Tao Ming and handing the cattail in his hand to the person next to him, Liu Deming hurried away.

After watching him walk away, Chan Yi withdrew her gaze, nodded slightly to Tao Ming, and advised Chen Shao: "The students and Liu Dangjia are already able to take care of themselves. Young Master has been busy these days, so go back and take a rest first."

"Don't worry," Chen Shao comforted her, and then said to Liu Dangjia and several students in front of him, "A lot of thatched houses have been built. You can arrange for a group of people to live there first. It's just right. If they don't live in a suitable place, you can also make adjustments as soon as possible."

After they agreed one after another, Chen Shao forced himself to return to the prefect's mansion despite his sleepiness.
