"You're saying that within this hard pipe, the two of them used it as their hiding spot?"

"That's right, only this pipe could be made use of with some metallic materials, and moreover, it wouldn't be affected by this kind of collapse. It seems Ye Chen is really smart. Quick, everyone come over, we'll excavate here with shovels bit by bit."

As they spoke, people hurried over. With strength in numbers, it took just over two minutes for the pipe to be completely exposed.

"Ye Chen, Ye Chen, can you hear me?"

Yang Da knocked hard on the pipe. Ye Chen, of course, could hear very clearly, but he felt that he did not have the strength to speak anymore. He just used his body to knock on the pipe twice with his fist.

When the people outside heard the response, they were ecstatic. No doubt, they could now confirm that Ye Chen was down there.

"Quick, hurry up."

Yang Da shouted loudly, and then, those people started to dig out from one side of the position.

Finally, the place was opened up all at once, and they saw a large hole inside.

By this time, Ye Chen and Anying had already crawled out.

"Quick, someone come, pull him out."

Several people stepped forward and pulled out both Ye Chen and Anying.

As soon as Ye Chen came out, he suddenly felt that the oxygen became very abundant and he took in deep breaths of air.

"Ye Chen, how are you? Are you okay?"

Li Fu stepped forward and looked at Ye Chen, who waved his hand at him.

"Rest assured, I, I'm still alright. How about Anying? How's Anying?"

He turned back to look, and in fact, Anying's condition was quite similar to his.

They had just been in a state of rapid oxygen deprivation. Now that oxygen supply was restored, blood circulation could flow normally again, so overall, there was no significant impact on the human body.

"I feel a lot better now, that feeling has completely disappeared, we, we've really been rescued."

"That's great, being able to see you guys have survived here, my heart is finally at ease. Come, let's hurry and take him to the hospital for a comprehensive examination."

"Old master, there's really no need, I'm very aware of my own physical condition. Just now, we were constantly in the pipe, it was only our oxygen breathing that was weak, the rest, there was no disturbance."

"Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital? Going to the hospital would make us feel more secure."

"No need, I just feel a bit tired now."

"It's okay, in a state of long-term oxygen deprivation, it can cause muscle relaxation and fatigue. Once the oxygen supply is sufficient and the blood circulation is back to normal, this effect will quickly disappear."

"Alright, I understand."

"Old master, so what do we do now?"

"Now that we've found everyone, there's no point in my staying here any longer. Hurry up and withdraw all our people and all the equipment including the lights, get everything moved out, restore the site to its original state, and then, we'll meet at the hotel."

"Okay, I understand."

After finishing speaking, Yang Da nodded and went over there to start carrying out these tasks.

After several people got into the car, Ye Chen immediately closed his eyes.

The old master wanted to talk to him, but seeing him and Anying so weak, he didn't continue.

When the two of them opened their eyes, they found themselves lying on a very large bed, and it seemed that the room was filled with people.

Ye Chen didn't understand what had happened, only remembering vaguely getting into the car before losing his memory.

"What's happened to me?"

He suddenly sat up from the bed and said to everyone present.

Still there were those few people, Yang Da, Li Fu, Guo Tao, and Guo Hongyu.

"Brother Ye Chen, you're finally awake. You've been sleeping since last night, all the way until now."

"Now? What time is it now?"

"Now, it's already 3 o'clock in the afternoon."

"My god, did I really sleep that long?"

"That's right, you slept for almost 8 hours. How do you feel now, a bit recovered?"

"Don't worry, I feel much better now. Anying, Anying."

Ye Chen gently pushed Anying, who yawned long and sat up from the bed.

"What's this, what happened?"

"We've been sleeping on the bed all this time, are you feeling better now?"

"That's right now, I feel very comfortable and have returned to my normal state, no problems at all."

"That's good then."

With that, the two of them got up from the bed.

"Old master, why are you all here now? And it's already afternoon, what about Yang Da? Has he shown up?"

"Yang Da, he's already called me this morning, and we just talked briefly on the phone. However, the conversation was not very friendly, it can be said we departed on bad terms."

"What do you mean? You're saying Yang Da called you willingly?"

"He called me willingly, and by the looks of it, it seems he's prepared to drag this out. But no worries, I've been well-prepared for this. Are you two sure you're alright? If there's a problem, let's go to the hospital for a checkup."

"There's no need."

"Alright, since there's no need, then, Ye Chen, I have a few words for you. Do you know that by doing this, you have defied orders? I never asked you to stay at this place before. If I hadn't arranged so many people to search here extensively, do you know what the final outcome would have been?"

Ye Chen lowered his head slowly at this point.

Just then, suddenly, he saw a figure flash by out of the corner of his eye.

Following that, Yang Da standing beside just turned his head for a look, and Ye Chen felt like something brushed against his waist area.
