A typhoon is a test. On this thrilling sleepless night, there was a group of "guardians" who shuttled through the storms, trekking through the mountain village roads, composing a thrilling battle against typhoon, and built a warm barrier for the city.
"Come on, come on, come on, uncle." On the afternoon of the 4th, the heavy rain in Qingwei Street Village, Xiangzhu Town, Yongkang City, a tender and sincere sound of cheering, penetrated the wind and rain, and made the anxious rescuers feel more powerful.

"Is it the Red Arrow rescue team? There are dozens of children trapped in Qingweijie Village and urgently need support." Dialing the pointer back to 15:20, a call for help touched the heart of the Red Arrow rescue team.
Time is life. With the integration of the team and equipment, the Red Arrow rescue team leader Lu Haibo led the team straight to Qingwei Street Village. The trapped children were on the first floor of two buildings in the village, one of which had to go out first and then go up to the second floor due to the special structure of the house. However, under the influence of heavy rainfall, the rainfall in Xiangzhu exceeded 100mm, causing serious waterlogging in Qingweijie Village. The wide street in the past turned into a rapid stream with a depth of about 1 meter, which also blocked the way for children to go to the second floor. .

In order to enter the bungalow to transfer the trapped children, the rescue team must first cross this 10-meter-wide rapid. Thinking that the children were eagerly looking forward to it, Lu Haibo immediately formulated countermeasures and organized equipment to arrange rescue. While the team members were busy preparing, an accident happened, and an old man rushed down the rapids. When it was too late, the team member Wang Hongliang plunged into the turbulent water and grabbed the old man. Immediately afterwards, several team members joined forces to rescue the old man.
At 15:45, the rapids still had no intention of retreating. After all preparations were made, the rescue team threw the rescue rope to the opposite building from a height. After being firmly secured, the rope became a "bridge of life" across the rapids. Without hesitation, Shi Yueliang, a retired soldier, hung his hands and feet on the ropes and crawled to the opposite building. In the meantime, the rapids kept slapping his back, and the swaying rope made him choke a few saliva.
As Shi Yueliang was moving forward, a naive voice of "Come on, Come on" came out from the opposite building-this was the encouragement of the trapped children, through the wind and rain.
After 5 minutes of climbing, Shi Yueliang successfully reached the building where the children were trapped. While comforting the children, he walked out the gate holding the children, and then moved them to the second floor. Amid the crackling rain, the children cheered triumphantly in the building, "Uncle, you are a hero."
