Crossing the famine: The hunter's wife has good farmland
Chapter 101 Emergency Rescue
Hu Mu's voice was hoarse and his eyes were bloodshot.
This incident was a huge blow to him.
There are only a hundred or so people left in their entire Huqin tribe. More than a dozen of them died when Hu Liang was captured before, and now there are so many people under pressure. Could it be that the Huqin tribe has run out of luck and is really going to be destroyed in his hands?
Fu Cang suddenly hit him hard on the back with his hand.
"Let's go and save people. Don't think too much. I still like your arrogant look when I first met you!"
Fu Cang's words dispelled all Hu Mu's sentimentality, and he hurriedly followed Fu Cang's footsteps.
"Tsk! You sound like you're any better than me!"
From time to time, cries for help could be heard from under the collapsed houses.
But Hu Mu and his team had no tools, which made the rescue particularly difficult.
However, the situation improved a lot after Fu Cang arrived. He brought an axe and a machete, which made the rescue easier.
Although the collapse of the Huqin tribe’s wooden houses was a disaster, fortunately they were wooden houses. As long as the people trapped underneath were rescued quickly, the risk of their lives being threatened would be much smaller.
It's easier to work with more people. Everyone worked together to move the fallen wood and rescue the people trapped underneath. By dawn, most of the people had been rescued.
At this time, Yuelu brought Mo Xiaonian, Luhua and others over.
Mo Xiaonian saw from afar that Fu Cang was wearing gloves on his hands, and smiled with satisfaction.
Yuelu raised his voice and said to them, "You take turns to go into the cave to drink water and eat. Only when you have enough strength can you continue to rescue people! Fucang, you come over first!"
Fu Cang wiped his forehead.
It was so cold, but he was actually sweating.
Fu Cang must have a special meal, which was specially prepared for him by Mo Xiaonian, a big bowl of sugar water, thick potato soup with wild boar meat, and white flour steamed buns.
"Does your hand hurt?"
"No, the gloves you gave me are so good. They are thick, warm, and light. Moreover, the five fingers are separated. They don't hinder my work at all. But such good things have become dirty because I have been carrying wood and shoveling snow."
"It's okay if it gets dirty, just wipe it off, this material is waterproof. How many more hours will it take you to finish this?"
"It's almost there. There are still eight people who haven't been rescued. But the further we go, the harder it will be to rescue them. These eight people are trapped at the bottom, and three or four of them are seriously injured."
"Then I'll go with you to take a look. I know some medical skills and I should be able to help."
"Then you should wear more clothes, it's very cold outside."
Mo Xiaonian wore thicker clothes than anyone else.
When the weather first got cold, Mo Xiaonian was really frozen. However, it has been winter for such a long time now and the weather is getting colder and colder. However, Mo Xiaonian seems to have adapted to it and doesn't feel that cold anymore.
After Fu Cang had eaten and drunk his fill, he went back and found Hu Mu.
"Take your brothers from the tribe and go to the cave to eat."
Hu Mu looked at Fu Cang in surprise.
"You cooked for us, too?"
"Yes, the Great Elder and his men have made a lot of it. It's all watery anyway. Go and drink a bowl of it. It will warm your body up. Go quickly and don't waste time!"
Hu Mu clasped his fists towards Fu Cang and called his family over for dinner.
Tribes never share their food. What the Yueluo tribe did today was a life-saving grace for the Huqin tribe.
Mo Xiaonian and Yue Lu Luhua also followed.
Those people trapped at the bottom were all injured to varying degrees. Reed flowers lit a bonfire and boiled a lot of hot water. This way, when people were rescued, they would first be given a bowl of hot water to recover.
The rescue work lasted for most of the day, and by the afternoon, the last person was dug out.
Unfortunately, these people were trapped underground for too long. Three of them died due to lack of oxygen, and two others were so seriously injured that they died not long after being dug out.
Hu Mu dug a grave for the five people with his hands and buried them. He knelt in front of their graves and cried, and then began to think about the future of the Huqin tribe.
Half of the house collapsed, and no one dared to live in the remaining parts.
After their tribe escaped from the flood, disasters followed one after another. Originally there were about a hundred people in the tribe, but now there are only about sixty left.
Hu Mu knelt for a long time and made an important decision.
He wanted to take the remaining people and join the Yueluo Tribe, so that the remaining sixty-odd people of the Huqin Tribe would have a chance to survive.
Mo Xiaonian was bandaging Fu Cang's wound again.
Although the gloves he was wearing were thick, he had done too much work last night. The wound on the palm of his hand, which had finally healed, had now split open again.
Mo Xiaonian pouted as she bandaged his wound. Fu Cang didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that Mo Xiaonian would get angry.
At this time, Hu Mu brought the remaining people of the Huqin tribe to the entrance of the cave.
Yuelu knew that Humu wanted to join their tribe, but she didn't feel happy. Instead, she was worried.
She did not answer Hu Mu immediately, but held a meeting with Fu Cang, Feng Ming, Mo Xiaonian and others.
Mo Xiaonian didn't quite understand why Yue Lu felt worried.
"Grandma, isn't this a good thing? The survivors of the Huqin tribe are all strong men. With their joining, the strength of our Yueluo tribe will be greatly increased. After all, we have so many more warriors and hunters!"
"Xiao Nian, you have a simple mind and a kind heart. You don't understand many things here. I am hesitant about this matter because of the many men in the Huqin tribe."
"I see, grandma, you are afraid and unsafe, right? But you accepted Xiong Ben and the others very easily before."
"Xiong Ben and his people are few in number and can't cause any trouble. Besides, they don't have a tribe anymore. They are just a bunch of scattered people gathered together, so they don't pose much of a threat. But the Huqin tribe is different. They have a leader, and there are so many warriors and hunters. Do you think they will listen to me after they are united with us? What if they have evil intentions and want to occupy our tribe and our women? Wouldn't that be like inviting a wolf into the house?"
Mo Xiaonian finally understood Yue Lu’s worries and nodded.
"I understand, but I always feel that Hu Mu is not that kind of person."
Fu Cang nodded.
"I feel the same as Xiao Nian. I also think Hu Mu is not that kind of person. He values the survivors in the Huqin tribe. I think he will willingly give up his position as the leader in order to protect the people in the tribe."
