146 Accidents
Since we will have to return to the top of the mountain in a moment, there is no need to go with garbage removal equipment. So, I placed four sanitation clips and four garbage bags at a distance. This kind of function, firstly, is to make a road sign, we can follow this to recognize the road when we return, you must know that the road map in Han Jie's hand does not mark the path in the back mountain. Second, if we really need to call for help in an extreme situation, the rescuers can use this direction to find us.
The road behind the mountain is much more difficult than the front mountain, and in many cases there is no road at all, so you can only cross between the roots of the trees and the stones. The space between the trees has also become very narrow, and finding the way has become the most annoying thing that restricts our speed. Han Jie and I deliberately kept a certain distance from Zhu Xu and Li Ting in front, generally assuming that they can't see us, and we can still see them.
Li Ting's physical strength is obviously getting worse and worse, and she has to rest for a while. Although Zhu Xu was anxious at this time, without Han Jie competing with him on the side, and Li Ting, the oil bottle, followed, he could only be in a hurry. While Li Ting was sitting down to rest, he always had to climb on a stone or tree to look at the location of the lake, estimating how much distance there was.
Han Jie and I followed behind, but we felt very relaxed, and our physical strength recovered a lot. I also took some photos of Han Jie along the way. Putting aside those annoying things and annoying tasks, in fact, this kind of journey is quite happy. Before we knew it, we walked for more than an hour in the direction of the back mountain.
But the happy atmosphere was soon shattered by a piercing scream!
"Yikes!"
"Zhu Xu! Someone's coming! Help! ”
I was taking pictures of Han Jie when I suddenly heard Li Ting screaming in front of me. Han Jie and I hurriedly ran forward to look, but Li Ting was the only one who stayed where she was, crying Zhu Xu's name in a panic. Zhu Xu can't see anyone at all!
I asked Li Ting: "What about Zhu Xu's others?" ”
Li Ting pointed to a big pit in front of him in horror and said, "He just climbed on that big rock to explore the way, but even people with stones fell under the cliff!" ”
I approached the pit to see that it looked like a mark made by a large stone, but there was a steep cliff on the side, and it should belong to the kind of stone that was half of its volume protruding from the outside, and the earth underneath was relatively soft, and it was too heavy for a man to stand on it. I cautiously grabbed the trunk of the tree next to me and looked down. A large rock fell to the bottom of the cliff, but I could still see a small dot of fluorescent green dangling underneath, which was the color of the uniform vest we were wearing!
I turned back to Han Jie and Li Ting and said, "I saw him, he seems to be still moving, he should still be saved!" ”
"What then? What to do? You must find a way to save him! Li Ting cried and begged us.
"Let's call for help first!" Han Jie hurriedly took out her mobile phone and prepared to make a distress call, but she changed several positions in a row, but she couldn't get through because there was no signal. The primeval forest here is too dense, and our location is in the back mountain, and the mountain blocks the signal of the base station outside. Li Ting and I also took out our mobile phones to see, but there was no signal!
Han Jie frowned, and said to Li Ting: "There is no signal here at all, it seems that we have to go back, at least to the position on the top of the mountain just now to get through the phone." ”
Li Ting shook her head violently in disagreement, she cried and shouted: "Zhu Xu, he is still alive now, we should go down to save him first!" How can you go back? ”
Han Jie saw that Li Ting had been frightened and lost her proportion, so she patiently persuaded her: "It's too dangerous for Zhu Xu to fall into that place!" We will encounter danger if we rush to save people, so it is safer to wait for professional rescuers to come! ”
Li Ting still didn't want to go back, she saw that Han Jie didn't agree to save people first, so she turned around and begged me, saying, "Zhai Zisheng, I beg you!" Take me to Zhu Xu! Just let Han Jie go back alone and ask for help! ”
Han Jie also looked at me helplessly. Her expression was obviously hoping that I could also persuade Li Ting, after all, in this emergency situation, it is better to be rational in making any decisions.
I usually go out with Master and Mustache to hunt ghosts and do tasks, and I encounter more thrilling situations, so I am relatively calm at this time. I weighed it left and right, and still said to Han Jie: "I think what we have to do next now, first of all, the first point is that we can't act separately!" There are only three of us now, and if we are separated, there will definitely be one person left alone. The second point is that if we climb back to the top of the mountain and call for help, plus the time it takes for the rescuers to come, we won't be able to get here in five or six hours. And I just looked down, and the bottom of the cliff is not far from us, and we can walk down in an hour. The third point is that Zhu Xu must have been seriously injured if he fell from such a high place. If we think about it purely from the perspective of saving people, we must save people first, and when the rescue team comes, maybe people will be gone long ago! ”
Li Ting saw that I also supported saving Zhu Xu first, so she naturally said yes. But Han Jie still didn't agree to take risks without being sure, and the remaining three people had disagreements.
I added, "We can go and see if his position is dangerous, or if the worst has already happened, then there is nothing we can do." But if the location where Zhu Xu fell is not too dangerous, and the person is still there, we can at least help him bandage it, and then wait for rescue. That way he will have a better chance of survival! ”
Han Jie listened to my analysis, and had to admit that what I said made sense. Of the remaining three, one man and two women, I became the main force from a physical point of view. In addition, the opinion of going to save people and returning was two to one, and Han Jie had no choice but to agree to our plan.
So, the three of us continued to walk down the cliff of the back mountain. Because Li Ting's physical strength is limited, I don't dare to walk too fast, so I can only wait while walking. Li Ting was also gritting her teeth and insisting, not daring to fall behind at this time. As a result, I had estimated that it would take me about an hour to get down the cliff, but it actually took almost two hours.
We finally climbed to the bottom of the cliff. I walked through a dense forest to a small clearing, and I saw the big stone that had fallen. The stone overwhelmed several large trees and smashed a large hole in the ground, but Zhu Xu was never found nearby.
"Zhu Xu!"
"Zhu Xu!"
At this time, Han Jie and Li Ting in the back also followed, and when the two of them saw this, they opened their throats and shouted. I walked around the big rock again and thought, "Oh no! When I was on it just now, I saw his green vest coming, it couldn't have been crushed under the stone. Is it ......?"
I subconsciously looked up. Sure enough, there was a cliff tree about ten meters above the ground on the cliff, which supported Zhu Xu in the middle of the road like an outstretched palm, so he didn't fall to the ground. Zhu Xu also seemed to hear Han Jie and Li Ting's shouts below, and his hands and feet moved slightly, but he couldn't make any sound.
I called Han Jie and Li Ting, and pointed out to them the location where Zhu Xu was found. Li Ting suddenly cried again, and with her physical exhaustion, she also began to have some symptoms of shock. I told Han Jie to help Li Ting aside to sit down and rest, and then I climbed up the steep slope next to the cliff until I reached the cliff tree where Zhu Xu was. The steep slope is very close to the cliff, the slope is okay, and you can hold on to the branches all the way up.
I took a closer look at the terrain near the cliff tree and the situation of Zhu Xu on the steep slope. The favorable situation is that the roots of the tree look very stable, and it does not look like it will collapse easily, otherwise it will not be able to withstand the impact of Zhu Xu's big living person falling. The unfavorable situation is that Zhu Xu's left leg is crooked at a strange angle, and blood keeps flowing down his trouser leg.
So, I made a quick decision based on my own judgment. I carefully grabbed the vines entwined in the cliff tree, stepped on its roots and approached Zhu Xu, and soon climbed to Zhu Xu's side. Zhu Xu was still conscious at this time, his lips were trembling slightly, and his eyelids were constantly beating. I did a preliminary examination of his body, and there were no obvious injuries to his head, neck, or torso, and there was no serious bleeding, except for a part of the skin that had been cut by a branch. The most seriously injured part was still in his left calf, not only the fibula and tibia were broken, but also a small piece of white flower bone punctured the muscle tissue, which could be seen from the outside. It was this position that caused a lot of bleeding, and it seemed that if he was not bandaged and stopped immediately, he would not last long and would die!
I am very glad that I made the decision to come first to save people, of course, I should be even more glad that it was Zhu Xu, otherwise by the time the rescue team came, his blood would have dried up. I first straightened Zhu Xu's left leg as far as I could, and then took out a replacement T-shirt from my backpack to help him bandage it. Then, I broke off three more branches, took off my own sanitation vest, and simply fixed his left calf to avoid secondary damage when moving him.
After this was done, the biggest problem left was how to move Zhu Xu off the tree and get it to the ground. At first, I thought about leaving him here and trying to get him down when the rescue team came. But I think Zhu Xu still has some consciousness, and I'm afraid that after he stops bleeding for a while, he will regain a little physical strength and move around again. If he falls off this again, I guess all the hard work I took to climb up will be in vain.
After much thought, I decided to take another risk and get him out of the tree myself!
