The death toll has risen to six after the roof of a bar collapsed Monday in the city of Baise, southern China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region.
On Tuesday afternoon, rescuers found two bodies in the debris, according to the regional emergency management department.
Among the injured, one is in critical conditions, and 16 others sustained severe injures.
A total of 23 people have been summoned by local police for investigation and seven have been detained on suspicion of causing a major safety accident.
Local police and fire departments sent around 260 people to aid in search and rescue after the collapse.
Both the national and regional health commissions sent medical expert teams to guide treatment of the injured on site.
The bar, with an area of 700 square meters, is located on the top floor of a three-story steel-framed building.
