Chapter 42:
Wei Lizhou looked at Yu Yiqing, "Did you hear that strange sound?"
Yu Yiqing nodded, this sound is the harbinger of an avalanche.
He frowned slightly, "Judging from the terrain here, we are very likely to encounter an avalanche head-on."
Wei Lizhou clearly understood how dangerous it is to face an avalanche head-on.
"If there is an avalanche... It seems that we don\'t even have a place to run." Wei Lizhou glanced around at their bare rock protruding from the mountainside.
Yu Yiqing\'s mood also became heavy.
—
Resort hotel lobby.
The news of Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing\'s disappearance has spread throughout the resort, and everyone gathered in the hotel lobby with worried faces.
After Wei\'s father and Wei\'s mother learned of Wei Lizhou\'s disappearance, they immediately flew to the resort in their own private jet.
Mother Wei sat on the sofa in the hall, her brows were furrowed, and she looked worried.
Father Wei stood beside her, and asked the person in charge of the resort with a calm face, "It\'s been more than four hours since they disappeared, haven\'t you found any clues yet?"
The person in charge of the resort explained with a sad face: "We have sent all the professional search and rescue personnel and search and rescue dogs. But the snow fell too much tonight, covering up their movements.
From the existing monitoring, we can only speculate that the two of them are walking in the direction of the birch forest. However, it is impossible to determine exactly where they ended up. "
The person in charge of the resort now regrets that he didn\'t install surveillance cameras in the birch forest area to save trouble.
Father Wei tried his best to suppress the anxiety in his heart, and calmly said to the person in charge of the resort: "I have called the helicopter rescue team, and you should cooperate with them to find the traces of these two children as soon as possible."
The person in charge of the resort nodded hurriedly.
Ye Panbai, Ling Heke and Liu Yirou were all sitting around Mother Wei at this moment.
Seeing Wei\'s mother clenched her hands, with a restless expression on her face, Liu Yirou put her hand on Wei\'s mother\'s arm lightly, and comforted her in a gentle voice: "Auntie, Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing are auspicious people with their own auspices, and they will definitely be safe It\'s fine."
Mother Wei couldn\'t help but took a deep breath, her voice was bitter and tight: "I hope God will protect these two children."
When Ye Panbai and Ling Heke heard their conversation, they both lowered their heads, their eyes filled with self-blame and guilt, and felt that if they had acted together with Wei Lizhou before, maybe now they would not cause the situation where the two of them disappeared together.
Seeing the gloomy appearance on their side, the other students in the hall started whispering.
"Do you think the two of them can get back?"
"I\'ve been missing for several hours, shouldn\'t I be kidnapped?"
"Impossible, if it was really kidnapping, I should have called long ago."
"I think it\'s bad luck for them now, maybe they won\'t be able to find them in their lifetime."
…
Liu Jiahao purposely came to this side of the hall to watch the excitement. After hearing these people\'s murmurs, his voice was full of gloating, and he said to Liu Lirong beside him: "These two people deserve it! Let them always have trouble with us before, and now the retribution has come .”
At this moment, Liu Lirong was in a panic because of the search, and she was even more disturbed when she heard Liu Jiahao\'s voice.
She said to Liu Jiahao with an irritable expression: "It\'s so noisy! Can you shut up!"
Liu Jiahao was baffled by Liu Lirong, and his anger also came to his head, "You are pretending here, why are you pretending to be a good person?"
Liu Jiahao thought that Liu Lirong was angry because he made trouble against Wei Lizhou and the others.
When Liu Lirong heard Liu Jiahao\'s words, she felt even more annoyed and irritable. But at this moment, she couldn\'t get up to argue with Liu Jiahao at all, she lowered her head silently and stared at the marble floor of the hotel in a daze.
Seeing her like this, Liu Jiahao curled his lips and complained: "You must have miswired your brain, you have such a big temper today!"
Yan Kaichen stood beside Liu Jiahao\'s brother and sister, and when he heard their dispute, he smiled and said to Liu Jiahao: "As a brother, you should be more open-minded, don\'t care so much with your sister."
Liu Lirong lowered her head, and when she heard Yan Kaichen\'s comforting words to Liu Jiahao, she closed her eyes and clenched the fingertips hanging by her side.
Yu Weiyun and Zhu Jinyang were also standing near Liu Lirong. Seeing Liu Lirong\'s reaction, Yu Weiyun also frowned strangely. Liu Lirong looked a little strange.
Just as Liu Lirong and his sister were arguing, the middle-aged man in charge of leading the search and rescue hurried into the lobby of the hotel.
Seeing his serious expression, the nerves of everyone present tensed up immediately.
Father Wei said in a low voice, "How is the situation?"
Seeing the anticipation in Wei\'s father\'s eyes, the middle-aged man sighed inwardly, but still stated his opinion bluntly.
"It\'s not very optimistic. Now the snow outside is getting heavier and stronger, and the wind is blowing stronger. Our search and rescue team also saw huge snow blocks sliding down the snow slopes. These are signs of an avalanche. I have asked all search and rescue The personnel will find a safe place to stay and wait for the next instruction."
Looking into the eyes of the middle-aged man, Father Wei became silent.
He understood that the underlying meaning of the person in charge\'s words was to temporarily suspend the search and rescue, wait for the weather to improve, and then start looking for Wei Lizhou and the others again.
Father Wei closed his eyes in frustration, and said in a low voice: "You are professionals, just make decisions based on your own experience."
This is not the first time for the middle-aged man to receive this kind of search and rescue mission in the snowy mountains. He understands that most people will be emotionally extreme when their relatives and friends are missing. He hopes that the sooner they search and rescue their relatives and friends, the better. After all, the longer the missing, the more dangerous and the lower the possibility of survival.
So when he saw Father Wei\'s understanding, he nodded gratefully to Father Wei, and promised: "As soon as the weather improves, we will take action immediately."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deafening roar in the distance. The entire hotel lobby was even shaken slightly, and many people were so frightened that they screamed.
Everyone stood up in shock, looking through the glass windows of the hotel at the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance.
The snow on the top of the mountain was like a rushing and roaring wave, carrying all kinds of gravel and snow, and it flew down in an instant, with a sound like thunder.
Even standing in the hotel and watching from a distance, one can\'t help but feel creepy and shuddering instantly.
The person in charge of search and rescue murmured: "That\'s why Xue Beng is called the \'White Death\'. "
When human beings encounter such a big avalanche head-on, unless they are lucky, it is difficult to get a chance of survival.
The person in charge of the search and rescue was praying secretly in his heart at this time, hoping that the two boys they were looking for would not encounter this avalanche.
Otherwise, even if the weather improves, searchers may not even be able to find the body in the end.
When an avalanche crosses the border, it will wash away the things swept and entrained along the way to an unknown place in the distance with overwhelming momentum, or cover it under a thick layer of snow.
Wei\'s father and Wei\'s mother turned pale at this time, they all thought of Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing who had not been found yet.
Because the hotel is located in a safe area, the people in the hall have calmed down after the little panic just now.
Seeing Father Wei and the others\' gloomy expressions, many people in the hall showed sympathy.
"If Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing encountered an avalanche, it would be difficult to survive."
"Look at the fierce avalanche. The birch forest is right next to the snow mountain. If they were there, it would be difficult for them to avoid the avalanche."
"The golden rescue time for an avalanche is 15 minutes. If they are unfortunately buried under the snow and have not been discovered for more than 15 minutes, they will probably die of suffocation. There was a prince from a foreign royal family before, that is They were found too late and suffocated in the snow."
"Wei Lizhou and the others haven\'t been found yet, and the search and rescue has stopped. Why do I have a strong sense of foreboding?"
Hearing the discussion of these people, Yu Weiyun lowered his head, a little joy flashed in his eyes.
Thinking that Yu Yiqing, a thorn in his side, would never appear in front of him again, he couldn\'t help but feel joyful in his heart.
Seeing Yu Weiyun bowing his head, Zhu Jinyang thought he was worried about Yu Yiqing, so he patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.
Yu Weiyun quickly suppressed her secret joy.
When he raised his head again, he looked worried. He said to Zhu Jinyang in a sad voice: "It\'s all my fault for not taking good care of my brother. I don\'t even know how to tell my parents about this."
Zhu Jinyang persuaded: "It\'s not your fault, Yu Yiqing has hands and feet, you can\'t control where he goes at all."
Yu Weiyun lowered his eyes, still pretending to be extremely sad.
However, when he noticed Liu Lirong beside him from the corner of his eye, doubts flashed in Yu Weiyun\'s eyes.
Liu Lirong seemed surprisingly quiet today.
Liu Lirong stared at the avalanche scene of the snow mountain in the distance through the glass window of the hotel.
She breathed a sigh of relief, and the tense string in her mind began to relax.
She clenched her fingertips tightly and prayed secretly that the more violent the avalanche, the better it would be to cover the bodies of Wei Lizhou and Yu Yiqing under the snow under the cliff.
In this way, the two of them can disappear from this world forever.
While waiting for the avalanche to stop, Wei\'s father and Wei\'s mother were also staring at the snow-capped mountains in the distance.
Their eyes were full of fear, and it was the first time they realized that time was so slow, and every minute and every second seemed very difficult.
At this moment, their hearts seemed to be tightly clenched by a big hand, and even breathing became a kind of torture for them.
When the person in charge of the search and rescue heard that the search and rescue could be restarted, Wei\'s mother\'s eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she uneasily clenched the hand of Wei\'s father beside her.
Father Wei looked at the person in charge of the search and rescue. He had a thousand words to tell him, but in the end he just said dryly, "Please."
Seeing the hope in Father Wei\'s eyes, the person in charge of the search and rescue couldn\'t bear to turn his head away, avoiding his eyes, and just promised in a low voice: "We will do our best to search."
But for the result, they dare not guarantee the result. After all, a full half hour has passed since the avalanche first occurred.
If those two boys really encountered an avalanche, then they can only pray for a miracle.
