The materials were not easy for girls like Zeng to hold steadily for hours, but she said that she hardly felt the exhaustion until she got back from the rescue scene.
"When you"re so focused on the rescue itself, you don"t even have time to feel tired."

Echoing Zeng"s feeling, Chen Youyou, another volunteer in Beibei said the only sound in his head while he was driving the volunteers and materials with his motorcycle is "I have to be faster."
The mountain roads in Chongqing are steep and narrow, only a meter wide at their narrowest points, making motorcycle the best transportation. But in the scorching August heat, temperatures exceeded 40 C in the city. It was even hotter in the mountains.
"Above my head, the sun was blazing. Under my feet, embers were burning. It felt like the temperature was over 50 C. My head felt like it was on fire under the helmet," said the 24-year-old delivery man, adding that he had to pour cold water on his head so that he won"t fall asleep.
