Chapter 406: Time to Choose
When your lover and others are in danger,
Will you save her first, or someone else?
This kind of classic binary problem has been mentioned again and again on the Internet and in life, and every time this issue is mentioned, it will attract heated discussions.
Because this kind of question is directly related to the darkest side of human nature, everyone's answer will inevitably involve their own interests, whether people admit it verbally or not, but they cannot escape the influence of their own position factors when making judgments and behaviors.
Weak people are eager to be rescued first, people with relatives hope that their relatives will be rescued first, and lovers regard whether they are leisurely considering each other as a test factor of their feelings......
These factors determine that everyone's ideas have their own biases, and few people can be fair and fair.
Ren Pingsheng couldn't do it either.
Because the purpose of his trip is to save Shi Xiaolian and save the girl who is very important to him.
Maybe it was God who favored kind people, in this rare catastrophe in history, Shi Xiaolian survived and persevered until the rescue team appeared.
But when she was only one step away from being rescued, fate had a binary dilemma here.
There are two survivors in total, one is Shi Xiaolian, an adult, and the other is an underage elementary school student.
Ren Pingsheng didn't know what Shi Xiaolian was thinking at this time, but when choosing who would be rescued first, she resolutely chose her student.
But Shi Xiaolian has no right to decide, and the final rescue operation still has to be decided by Ren Pingsheng.
At this moment, Ren Pingsheng was placed on this forked path, and no matter which decision he made, the final impact was unpredictable.
If he chooses to save the child first, and finally causes Shi Xiaolian to delay the best opportunity to save him, it will be Ren Pingsheng's regret that he will not be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life; if he saves Shi Xiaolian first, and the child does not survive in the end, then this incident will become an unforgettable mistake between Ren Pingsheng and Shi Xiaolian.
How to choose, Ren Pingsheng will be under heavy pressure for the rest of his life.
But all this is a responsibility that he cannot shirk.
Looking at the complicated eyes of the rescue team members, Ren Pingsheng's heart was like a pot of boiling hot porridge, boiling endlessly.
But at this moment, Ren Pingsheng lost his previous decisiveness and determination, and became hesitant.
Time passes by minute by minute, and with each second that passes, the hope of saving lives diminishes.
Unable to delay any longer, Wang Wei gritted his teeth and asked:
"Mr. Ren, you can decide quickly, time waits for no one. ”
Ren Pingsheng looked at the tired but tenacious faces of the rescue team members, and looked at the figures of Luo Geping and those "travel friends" resting on the spot between the corpses covered by white cloth, and Shi Xiaolian's gentle and amiable, simple and kind face, as well as her thin body, seemed to appear in front of him, and remembered her smile when she took pictures with Tai students in front of Mengwax Town Primary School.
Ren Pingsheng turned his heart sideways, gritted his teeth, nodded, and said in a dumb voice:
"Listen to her, save the child first, and then do your best to rescue her. ”
Wang Wei looked at Ren Pingsheng with sympathy in his eyes and a little admiration.
He turned around and beckoned his teammates, took the equipment needed for the rescue, and quickly rushed to the hole where there was only one person left to carry out the rescue.
Ren Pingsheng, who could not participate in person, could only wait anxiously outside, looking forward to the final result.
His face was pale and expressionless, but his heart was full of worries.
The captain of the national rescue team walked to the side, patted Ren Pingsheng on the shoulder, and said with understanding and sympathy:
"According to past experience, it will take two hours for these two to get out. It has been 128 hours since the earthquake broke out, the limits of the human body are limited, the female teacher came out later, when it was all dark, the medical conditions here are very simple, you have to be mentally prepared. ”
Ren Pingsheng furrowed his brows, he knew what the words of the captain of the national rescue team meant.
But he must not give up at this moment, he will not give up Shi Xiaolian.
As long as there is a little opportunity, Ren Pingsheng will fight for it.
He looked at the already gray sky, took out the maritime satellite phone that he had carried with him since entering the disaster area, and began to call the command in the distance.
......
After Wang Wei's preliminary investigation, he was already 80% sure of the rescue in the hole, and after re-entering the hole, he began to use the hacksaw he carried with him to cut off the steel bars around the survivors to provide more and safer space for them to escape, and then he used small steel jacks to push under the building materials one by one to provide a more reliable support effect and prevent secondary collapse.
While doing all this, Wang Wei did not forget to use his voice to talk to the survivors and encourage them.
Wang Wei had already infused his own water and glucose into the survivors through a hose, trying his best to maintain their lives, but the comfort of words is also very important for the survivors, many of whom are supported by a breath of breath and the desire to survive, and after meeting the rescuers, their mental state is often relaxed, but they cannot survive the last few minutes.
At this time, Wang Wei had to make preparations for rescue, but also to ensure that the survivors would not be slackened and paralyzed because of the hope of rescue, so that their physical functions would fade and buy time for the final rescue.
Fortunately, both survivors had a strong will to survive, and after receiving water and sugar supplies, they did not show signs of slackening and remained awake.
Especially the female teacher, although her voice was small and weak, she kept encouraging and comforting the other little girl, as if the damage caused by the disaster did not alarm her at all, did not frighten her at all.
And it was also this female teacher who took the initiative in front of Wang Wei to save her students first.
Therefore, Wang Wei admires this female teacher very much and is also very worried about her safety.
But the situation at the scene did not allow him to think too much, Wang Wei's top priority was to rescue the little girl first, the faster the little girl was saved, the more likely the female teacher was rescued.
With Wang Wei's continuous efforts, he finally cleaned up the dangerous factors around the hole, and then he used a precious gap to carry the little girl's body out from under the rubble.
Fortunately, the place where they live is a relatively fixed structure, although the little girl is scratched all over her body and bleeding, but the whole person's sense of survival is still sober, Wang Wei does not dare to slack off, he can't hold the little girl out of the hole, and the little girl's physical strength is not enough to support her to go out by herself.
Fortunately, the rescue team had taken this situation into account in advance, Wang Wei spread out a pair of soft beds that he carried with him, let the little girl lie on the soft bed, and then fixed it with a rope, so that the rescue team members outside gently pulled out the soft bed carrying the little girl, which completed the first rescue mission.
There was a burst of cheers from the disaster relief site, and everyone was happy that the little girl had been rescued.
Only Ren Pingsheng was unmoved, still frowning, waiting for news of the last survivor.
