Reborn amidst natural disaster, my childhood sweetheart and dad help me stock up and win effortlessl

Jiang Li tossed and turned, and eventually drifted off to sleep.

Jiang Li was woken up at six o'clock in the morning by an alarm clock that had been set in advance.

Jiang Li turned off the alarm clock, got out of bed, and saw that light was already streaming in through the window.

Jiang Li went into the bathroom to wash up and patted her face in front of the mirror to try and wake herself up.

It was too early today, and Ye Jingmo didn't have time to prepare breakfast. He only boiled two eggs in the kitchen.

Jiang Li took out bread from her spatial storage and poured two glasses of milk.

After a simple breakfast, Jiang Li took out the backpack she had prepared yesterday from her spatial storage.

Hmm, it's not very heavy.

Jiang Li glanced at the backpack; once it was on her back, its weight was negligible.

Ye Jingmo reinstalled and secured the parts of the power grid damaged by the earthquake yesterday.

Jiang Li turned on the electric grid and instructed Pudding, who had run to their feet:

"Stay home and watch your things. We'll be back soon."

Pudding looked at Jiang Li with reluctant eyes.

Jiang Li patted Pudding's head and then closed the door.

Qin Yu was waiting for Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo outside. He greeted them warmly when they opened the door.

Jiang Li returned a smile, and Ye Jingmo nodded indifferently.

When the three arrived at the meeting point, they found that there weren't actually many people there.

The military sent two large trucks to pick up the people.

Jiang Li managed to get on the two trucks even though they weren't full.

On the truck, Ye Jingmo pulled Jiang Li to sit in a corner, protecting her inside.

Qin Yu also sat down next to Ye Jingmo.

The people on the bus all looked worried, as if they were concerned about their future.

I don't know what's wrong with this world?

Disasters struck one after another, leaving them no time to catch their breath.

An unspoken silence enveloped the car.

The truck kept bumping and jolting, and people swayed from side to side with it.

The road surface was very uneven after the earthquake, and Jiang Li felt like she was riding a rocking horse the whole way.

suddenly,

The truck stopped.

Jiang Li lifted the cover on the truck and saw uprooted trees, with no trace of the original structure.

She was a little confused; they shouldn't have reached the rescue site yet.

Why did the car stop?

The soldiers on the vehicle jumped off to investigate, and when they returned, they loudly announced:

"The road ahead has collapsed, and military vehicles cannot pass. You will need to walk one kilometer to reach the rescue site."

Various mournful sounds rang out on the bus.

Some people complained that going to rescue sites was already hard enough, but now they have to walk to get there.

The soldiers ignored their complaints and ordered them to get off the vehicle quickly.

When Jiang Li jumped off the car, she felt that she could no longer feel her buttocks.

The bumpy ride took a toll on her backside.

Following the soldiers forward, Jiang Li saw the collapsed area.

A large hole appeared in the cement floor, with winding cracks extending outwards from the opening.

Like a ferocious monster, ready to swallow its prey whole at any moment.

Vehicles, rocks, and other obstacles on the road slowed down Ye Jingmo and his group's progress.

It took Jiang Li and the others almost half an hour to walk one kilometer to get there.

Seeing the aftermath of the earthquake with her own eyes, Jiang Li found it even more shocking and terrifying than any photograph could capture.

The tall and majestic buildings have been razed to the ground, leaving only broken building materials to show that there were once buildings here.

People missing limbs are a common sight. Their faces show no hope for life, their eyes are empty and lifeless, as if they were just soulless shells.

Someone was holding the body of a deceased loved one, crying out in despair, a sorrow so poignant that it brought tears to the eyes of those who saw it.

Rescue workers are busy on the ruins of the collapsed residential building.

Most of the rescuers were soldiers who lacked tools and had to carry the debris by hand.

Even with their hands covered in blood, they did not stop the rescue.

Many soldiers had dark circles under their eyes, showing that they hadn't rested in a long time.

Injured people were constantly being carried on stretchers to the doctors' aid area.

The soldier went to find the person in charge.

However, there were no spare people in the area who could come and arrange for Ye Jingmo and the other rescue workers.

Three minutes later, a familiar face with heavy dark circles under its eyes appeared before Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

Zhou Tian, ​​the captain of the rescue team.

As Zhou Tian's gaze swept across the crowd, he also spotted Jiang Li and Ye Jingmo.

Unfortunately, now is not the time for reminiscing; the rescue work cannot stop for even a moment.

The sooner the trapped people are rescued, the greater their chances of survival.

"Ten of you will follow the first squad leader; ten of you will follow the second squad leader... and the rest of you will follow me."

Zhou Tian quickly arranged the allocation of personnel, instructing each squad leader to lead their people away for rescue operations.

Ye Jingmo and Qin Yu were assigned to Zhou Tian's team.

"Putting on these red hats shows that you are rescue workers, making it easier for us to allocate resources."

Zhou Tian didn't waste any time giving any instructions; he took the people to the ground and told them to start moving the broken pieces.

When a specialist detects a living person using a life detector, they draw a checkmark on the ground with red paint.

This helps rescuers know the location where rescue operations need to be carried out.

"You stay there and behave yourself."

Before heading off to the rescue, Ye Jingmo gave Jiang Li a piece of advice.

Watching Ye Jingmo's departing figure, Jiang Li went to the place he had indicated and sat down.

suddenly,

She noticed that in addition to the rescue workers wearing red hats, there were many other people gathered around the outer perimeter of the residential building, searching for survivors.

what are they doing?

save people?

No, even if there were people around the outer perimeter of the residential building, there couldn't possibly be that many people to carry out the rescue.

Jiang Li noticed someone had found a bag of candy in the ruins and immediately put it into her backpack with great joy.

Jiang Li knew what these people were doing; they were scavengers.

Scavenging is a profession that emerged after the earthquake.

They searched for buried resources to meet their own needs or to trade.

Jiang Li took out cotton gloves and put them on. She was also going to search around there to see if she could find anything useful.

The outer edge of the residential building was only 300 meters away from the rescue site where Ye Jingmo and his team were located.

Jiang Li sent Ye Jingmo a message, telling him where she was going.

This way, Ye Jingmo wouldn't worry about her safety.

Jiang Li arrived at the outer ring of this residential building and guessed that it must have been a place where various shops used to be located.

She found a place far away from other scavengers and began her own scavenging journey.

Jiang Li moved the bricks aside with her hands and discovered a damaged breakfast shop sign.

I wonder if there's anything left to eat in the kitchen of this breakfast shop?

Jiang Li continued digging downwards, her arms aching from repeatedly performing the same movements.

She shook her hands to suppress the soreness.

what!

I saw a small corner of a flour sack peeking out from under a cement block.

Jiang Li was a little excited.
