Si Chen's team stayed in Shuitang Town for four days, with locals sending over people who were seriously injured each day, knowing there were doctors present. The team was as busy as spinning tops, searching tirelessly day and night for potential survivors. Si Chen would go to the surrounding villages to aid them during the day, returning at night.
Unfortunately, having waited too long, eight or nine out of ten people they unearthed showed no signs of life. Gradually, many began to head toward the relief Base, and the number of people in Shuitang Town dwindled. By the fourth day, they had originally planned to evacuate, but Si Chen requested to stay one more day.
