Xia Lin clearly remembered that on this day in his previous life, he and a few classmates went up the mountain and it began to rain heavily. He did not bring any rain gear. 

After walking for a while with his head covered in the rainstorm, he found himself separated from his classmates. Seeing a cave nearby, he went in to hide from the rain for a while.

Unexpectedly, the mudslide poured down from the top of the mountain. It just flowed over the mountain road, blocking the entrance of the cave tightly. 

Xia Lin was trapped in the cave. 

Although he was tortured by panic and fear for a day and a night, fortunately, he was not physically hurt.

However, other tourists on the mountain suffered heavy casualties, especially his classmates. 

He heard that one of them was washed down and has not been found. The others were also injured to varying degrees. In contrast, Xia Lin is already very lucky.

This time Xia Lin followed Ke Mei over. He didn't intend to make any changes. As long as he stayed in the village and didn't go out, his life would not be in danger.

However, as the disaster approached, he felt more and more uneasy in his heart. 

He felt that he knew that there would be a disaster in the future but only chose to take care of himself. 

This is a very immoral behavior that also failed his meaning of being born again.

So even though he was very reluctant, he still asked Song Yan for help because only Song Yan would believe him.

Seeing that he had set the date, Song Yan immediately walked to the village chief and whispered a few words to him. 

Xia Lin stood far away, unable to hear what they were talking about but saw the village head looking at Song Yan with surprise and suspiciousness. 

Song Yan pointed to the sky and said a few more words before the village chief left in a dubious manner.

Xia Lin walked over, looked at the back of the village chief, and asked, "What did you tell him?" 

"I told him that we received a call from an acquaintance at the Geological Bureau of the city, saying that the weather is very strange and there may be heavy rains which will cause major mudslides. I asked him to mobilize the villagers to persuade the tourists who want to go up the mountain to come back. "

"The village chief believed it?" 

"Of course he didn't believe it. He said that it rarely rains here and why would there be heavy rain. I let him look at the sky. He also thinks the sky is a bit weird. I said this is the inside information I got from a friend. Very reliable. If afterward, he found out that I lied to him, he can call 110 to report me to the police."

Xia Lin was speechless for a moment, "You dare to say that if you get the date wrong, the village chief would really hit 110 and arrest you?" 

Song Yan smiled and said, "Even if it's a mistake, I am the one who will be caught by the police. I will not confess you. Don't worry."

Xia Lin: "..." 

As the two talked, the raindrops got heavier and heavier. The heavy rain made the whole sky blurred into a greyish-white one.

The villagers hiding from the rain had already squeezed in the clinic and in the rooms on both sides. 

Xia Lin couldn't go back to his room so he could only hide in the truck with Song Yan. Fortunately, the chassis of this truck is very high and there is no danger of being submerged temporarily. 

Xia Lin watched the endless heavy rain outside the window and looked at his watch from time to time.

Song Yan noticed his movement and asked, "What's the matter?" 

"I don't know the exact time of the mudslide but it should be between one and two in the afternoon. It is now ten in the morning and there are only three hours left. I hope they can withdraw safely within three hours. "

Song Yan touched Xia Lin's hand and found that his whole hand was a little cold so he held his hand tightly in his palm, trying to warm him with the temperature of his palm. 

Xia Lin only listened to Song Yan whisper: "Don't be afraid. What happened in the previous life will never happen again in this life. God will surely hear your prayers."

Xia Lin gradually calmed down, his eyes drooping, not knowing what he was thinking. 

No one spoke for a while, only the sound of rain rushing outside the car window can be heard.

Song Yan watched Xia Lin quietly. At this moment, his heart was surprisingly calm. 

The anxiety that lasted from yesterday night to the present gradually calmed down. At this moment, he didn't think about anything, just simply enjoying the silence with Xia Lin.

After an unknown period of time, someone suddenly slammed the window with an umbrella outside the car. 

The two were shocked. Song Yan opened the car door and saw the village head drenched in, panting and saying: "Young man, you really got it right. Our village hasn't seen such heavy rain in more than ten years!"

He gasped a few more times, shook his head, and sighed: "We have notified everyone that can be notified. Many tourists have come down from the mountain one after another but a few college students told me that they originally paid for it. The child showed them the way, but when it started to rain halfway through, the child ran away alone without an umbrella. They thought that the child came back by himself first but they didn't expect that the child did not go home at all. Now the child's mother is crying and no one can coax her."

When the village chief said this, Xia Lin immediately remembered that some of his classmates in the previous life did plan to find a local child to lead them but the kid's price was so high that the two sides couldn't agree on it so Xia Lin didn't agree. It was better to go by themselves, so they didn't take the child up the mountain at all.

Unexpectedly, in this life, those classmates who traveled for graduation were still those classmates but because of the absence of Xia Lin, they eventually paid the money to bring the child and ended up losing the child.

The mountain actually has a road from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain. Xia Lin had walked there once in his last life and he was still very impressed. 

He thought for a moment and said to the village chief: "It's better if I look for him."

"Hey, no, no, how can this be done?" 

The village chief waved his hand quickly, "You are the doctor we invited here, with a distinguished status, how dare I let you..." 

"It's important to save people," Xia Lin said, "I know some first aid knowledge. If the child is injured and can't move, I can rescue him."

He said to Song Yan, "Lend me your car." 

Song Yan glanced at him silently then sat down in the driver's seat, turned around, and said to him and the village chief: "You guys show the way. I'll drive. Three people can help look after each other." 

Xia Lin didn't refuse anymore. He thought about it and called Ke Mei again.

"Where are you?" Ke Mei asked. 

"I am in Song Yan's car and now I am going to the mountain to find a child." 

"I am going too."

"Don't go," Xia Lin interrupted, "You stay in the village. If we don't come back after one o'clock in the afternoon, call the city to ask for rescue. There may be mudslides." 

Xia Lin hung up after speaking.

Inside the clinic, Ke Mei, standing by the window, raised his head and looked at the gray world outside. 

He hesitated for a moment and then pressed a series of numbers. 

"It's me." Ke Mei whispered, "As you wish, they set off.
