Clearing the Mudslide

Ning arrived at the front where a lot of men and some women were already gathered. Hey looked at the mudslide and frowned. 

The dark mud was mostly just dirt and water, but it had also brought with it some rock and dead trees with branches reaching out.

Ning looked at the trail up the hill where the mudslide had come from and saw a dead tree up there. Those could be used for firewood at night had it not been raining the whole time.

"Someone needs to go up there and check if there is any chance of another mudslide. This place seems like it happens here all the time," one of the men said.

"I will head on over and see what is up," another man said. "Who will come with me?"

"Take him," the husband spoke up, bringing Ning before him. "He only has one arm, so he is better off doing scout work."
