Everyone was groaning in pain on the ground. Waves of heat washed over them. Jiang Si reached back and felt her clothes; they had melted from the heat, sticking to her skin like molten lava.
Suddenly, a well-defined hand appeared before her. Jiang Si grabbed Qin Shen's hand and pulled herself up, then hurried to check on Shen Baoying and the others.
Everyone had burns of varying degrees on their backs. Jiang Si picked up a bag to get some medicine out, but just then, a few people emerged from deeper within the rock overhang. It was the old man's sons and daughters-in-law.
They had managed to take cover inside the rock formation in time, so they weren't seriously injured. Seeing their father lying unconscious on the ground, they didn't even think to help him up. Instead, their eyes were fixed on Jiang Si's group's backpacks.
