Fortunately, they didn’t find the overturned light boat. Perhaps the two masters had noticed the unusual weather and the raging wind, making it impossible to continue rescuing people, and had already returned to the separate residence.

Feeling slightly more at ease, she withdrew her consciousness and opened her eyes.

She went around the cave again, took out some clothes to cover the young children, checked the injured people’s conditions and found that no one was in serious trouble. She then breathed a sigh of relief and lay down with her clothes on.

In his sleep, the Little Prince sensed his sister’s warmth, turned over, and snuggled into her embrace.

Su Qingluo pulled the thin blanket over herself, holding his soft and adorable little body, and peacefully closed her eyes.

As Little Kingfisher said, the sudden wind blew away the accumulated rain clouds.

After a night of raging winds, the rain that had lasted for half a month stopped at dawn. The sun broke through the clouds and bathed the earth in light, the long-lost blue sky and white clouds lifted one’s spirits.

People rushed out of the caves to face the warm sunshine, breathing in the damp air, and cheering loudly.

The flood gradually subsided, revealing destroyed and collapsed houses, causing the elderly and women to cry into their hands again.

Those stuck in caves who could walk had left.

The injured also struggled to stand up, eager to return home and find their separated loved ones.

Only a dozen young children remained in the cave, resembling abandoned young animals, sadly missing their parents and relatives, whining softly in grievance.

Luckily, the three big dogs provided companionship, distracting the children. The Little Prince obediently stayed in the cave and took milk candies from his small purse to share with the other children.

Su Qingluo, Su Ziqin, and Wang Meng, carrying a medicine chest, went down the mountain together early in the morning. They came to the riverbank, set up a raft, and drifted to the separate residence.

The flood near the separate residence had receded quite a bit, revealing half of the courtyard wall. The three of them climbed over the wall and waded through knee-deep mud to reach the masters’ quarters.

Indeed, as Su Qingluo had guessed, the two masters had seen the unusual weather and raging winds, making it impossible to continue rescuing people, and had reluctantly returned to the separate residence.

Feeling guilty, the two masters hadn’t slept all night.

At dawn, the rain stopped, and five light boats were ready to depart when Su Qingluo and her siblings arrived.

“Qingluo, Ziqin, you’re here.”

Xu Yanru was pleased to see the sisters and hurried to greet them.

“Master, we’ve brought the backup medicines.”

Upon seeing Xu Yanru, Su Ziqin respectfully bowed and greeted her.

Xu Yanru looked approvingly at her: “Good, good, your timing is excellent. I’m just about to lead the team out.”

“Master, please leave the task of searching for survivors to Brother Meng and me.”

Su Qingluo looked up with determination in her eyes and said, “Please, both masters take the medicines and food and patrol the mountains and forests, settling the victims. Many of them lack food and clothing, and after spending a night in the rain, they might fall ill, and epidemics may occur without timely treatment.”

“Qingluo is right; the most important thing now is to pacify the victims, report the situation to higher authorities in time, and ask for support.”

Zhang Wenlin came out from the house and expressed his agreement.

“Alright, let’s do that.”

Xu Yanru pondered and decided, “I’ll send two boats with you in case you need to contact us.”

“Alright, thank you.”

Su Qingluo nodded obediently, her eyes curved in a smile.

Settling the victims was far from easy, as there were thousands of people who couldn’t evacuate safely.

Many victims were without clothes and food, and some couldn’t even find a cave, spending the night in the rain in the mountains and forests. When the rain finally stopped, their tense nerves relaxed, and several of them fainted from exhaustion.
