Chapter 62: Righteousness Saves People
Looking for people aimlessly in the barren mountains and mountains, shouting and shouting the names of the missing people, I am afraid that there is no best way out.
However, Du Xiaomeng shouted almost hoarsely, but he still couldn't get any response. She wanted to put down her sore hands, but after thinking about it, she still maintained her original posture, made a trumpet shape and put it to her mouth, and continued to shout.
Suddenly, Zhan Qi, who was walking in front, stopped his steps and turned around and made a silent gesture to her. She quickly closed her mouth, steadied her steps and opened her eyes wide to see her surroundings, while pricking up her ears to listen for the movements.
"Help, help......"
Heard it! A faint cry for help came from an unknown direction. Zhan Qi and Du Xiaomeng glanced at each other excitedly, and continued to prick up their ears to distinguish the direction from which the cries for help came.
There was silence for a while, and then the weak cry for help sounded again: "Is there anyone?" Help......"
Although the sound was a little choppy and he couldn't hear it clearly, Zhan Qi could still hear which side the voice was coming from. He pointed in one direction and said, "People over there, let's go!" ”
With that, he quickly ran in the direction he was pointing. Du Xiaomeng stumbled and tried her best to follow in his footsteps, but she was thrown away by him all of a sudden, so far away that she could only see a small back.
When Du Xiaomeng ran to the high hill with all her strength, she couldn't see Zhan Qi's figure, but saw Zhan Qi and a boy in white-washed rags standing on the edge of the cliff, looking down.
Seeing the boy, Du Xiaomeng shouted in surprise: "Ah Shu, why are you here?" ”
She had been to Liulipo several times and recognized the boy as the son of the kind-hearted "leper woman" Aunt Jiang. Aunt Jiang's whole family is only her and Ah Shu, she has always regarded this only son as a treasure, how could she let him run away into the barren mountains and mountains?
The boy known as "Ah Shu" quickly solved Du Xiaomeng's doubts. The boy was even more surprised than she was when he saw her. He was stunned for a moment with a surprised expression, and when he came back to his senses, he pointed to the bottom of the cliff excitedly and nervously and cried: "Sister! My mother fell underneath! ”
"What?" Du Xiaomeng reacted very loudly, walked quickly to Zhan Qi and Ah Shu's side, looked down the cliff, and saw that there was a stone sticking out about half a meter square about ten meters below, and there was a woman with a basket on her back lying on the stone, and some herbs were scattered on the stone and her body. The woman was face down, motionless, and did not know whether she was alive or dead.
Ah Shu anxiously grabbed Du Xiaomeng's arm and said in a panic: "Sister, hurry up and find a way to save my mother!" Please! ”
Du Xiaomeng glanced at the woman walking on the stone, and asked Zhan Qi anxiously, "Can you save Aunt Jiang?" ”
Zhan Qi didn't answer her words or look at her, just looked at the bottom of the cliff. After a while, he raised his head slightly, his gaze fell on Du Xiaomeng's waist, and said, "Untie the belt." ”
"Solution, untie the belt?" Du Xiaomeng didn't react, and subconsciously protected her hands to her waist.
Zhan Qi ignored her actions and said to Ah Shu, "Your belt is also untied." As he spoke, he untied his belt three times and five times, and when he saw that Du Xiaomeng was still standing there and didn't move, he urged: "Hurry up!" ”
Seeing this situation, Du Xiaomeng finally understood what he wanted to do. She quickly answered, and quickly untied her belt.
With the three belts in hand, Zhan Qi connected all the belts together, tied one end to the tree near the edge of the cliff, and pulled hard a few times, after making sure that the ties were firm, he pulled the belt and began to climb down the cliff.
Fortunately, people in this era like to use this long belt, and at this critical moment, the role of the belt is well played.
Du Xiaomeng and Ah Shu stood on the edge of the cliff, holding their breath and nervously watching the movement below. When Zhan Qi was halfway up, there was suddenly a strong gust of wind blowing, and he was blown a few times when he hung in the air, Du Xiaomeng couldn't help shouting: "Be careful!" She clenched her sleeves so nervously that her heart rose to her throat at that moment.
Zhan Qi stabilized his body and continued to climb down. Swift and swift, he quickly landed on the stone, crouched down and carefully flipped over the woman who had fallen on the stone, probed her snort, and shouted at the two above, "She still breathes!" ”
Hearing him say this, Du Xiaomeng and A Shu's hanging hearts let go a little bit.
The belt couldn't bear the weight of two people, so Du Xiaomeng and Ah Shu first pulled the unconscious Aunt Jiang up on it, and finally Zhan Qi climbed up on his own.
Ah Shu wiped his tears and anxiously shouted beside Aunt Jiang: "Mother! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me! Mother, wake up! ”
He excitedly wanted to reach out to push his unconscious mother, Zhan Qi grabbed his hand and said, "The bone on your mother's body may be broken, don't push her indiscriminately."
Ah Shu was so frightened that he quickly withdrew his hand and hid behind his back and didn't dare to move.
Injured people who fall from a height should not move their bodies because they do not know the extent of the injuries on their bodies, and if there are multiple fractures, moving the injured person indiscriminately will aggravate the injuries. The best way is to have a stretcher to carry the injured out to the doctor for treatment, but in this situation, where can I find a stretcher? went out to move the rescuers and then turned back to save people, but if they came back and forth, I was afraid that before they could return to the injured, they would be rescued and died because they dragged on for too long.
With no choice, Zhan Qi could only carry Aunt Jiang on his back and try his best to steady his body and walk forward quickly.
Before dark, Zhan Qi, Du Xiaomeng and Ah Shu returned to Hongyuan Temple in embarrassment.
The brothers and sisters of the Zhan family who were waiting there saw Zhan Qi and Du Xiaomeng coming back, their faces were full of surprise and disappointment, and they were even more surprised when they saw Zhan Qi carrying a woman on his back.
Zhan Qi and Du Xiaomeng were both excited and surprised when they saw Zhan Qi standing next to her two elder brothers. But now is obviously not the time to hug each other excitedly and care about how Zhan Li came back.
"Second brother, go and ask the abbot to come and save people!" Zhan Qi threw down these words as he walked past Zhan Ren, and then walked in the direction of the guest room prepared by the temple for pilgrims and good believers.
Du Xiaomeng and Ah Shu followed closely. As she walked past the Zhan siblings, Du Xiaomeng noticed that a look of disappointment flashed on their faces. However, she was worried about Aunt Jiang's injury, and she didn't have much time to think deeply, just glanced at the Zhan family brothers and sisters and hurriedly walked past them.
Soon, the abbot of Honganji Temple came with two monks, one old and one young.
Zhan Qi briefly explained the situation to them, and the abbot immediately arranged Aunt Jiang to a room that looked like a consultation room, and went in with the two monks to save people.
