Fisher's heart skipped a beat, and his ears felt as hot as fire.
"By the way, he brought food and water. Come on, eat something." Not knowing how to answer the question, Fisher had to change the subject and quickly brought over the bread, biscuits and water that he had saved just now.
Tingting's legs were tied up with small wooden sticks and she couldn't move.
Fei Xue helped her stand up, and Zhuo Yilin stepped forward to help. Together, they carefully moved Tingting to the tree to lean against.
Zhuo Yilin used a satellite phone to contact the rescue team, asked for their general location, and then called Fei Yang.
The brother and sister heard each other's voices again through sound waves and cried bitterly.
After making the call, Zhuo Yilin stood up and looked around, trying to find a relatively flat place where the two girls could rest comfortably.
After he walked away, Tingting said to Fisher: "You two... are a blessing in disguise, are you sure of your relationship?"
Fei Xue was startled and then remembered that she had not responded to Zhuo Yilin's request just now.
She didn't know how much support she could have for the feelings people have under extreme circumstances.
She did not doubt the authenticity and sincerity of Zhuo Yilin's words just now.
But... when the danger is lifted and reality returns, the difficulties and obstacles he once faced will surface again. Will he still stick to his current ideas?
Seeing her silence, Tingting sighed and advised: "Don't be stubborn... We are lucky enough to survive, why do we care so much... Since he has promised, you just... hold on tight
, whoever robs you, don’t let go..."
"I know, you should have a good rest." Fisher smiled lightly and helped her pull up her raincoat further.
Zhuo Yilin made a new "bed" a few meters away and came over to help Fisher up: "Let's go and rest over there. It didn't rain today and the light is better over there."
Fisher looked at him silently, a little afraid to look directly.
Can this intimacy and tenderness continue forever?
Tingting couldn't move, and Zhuo Yilin himself was overworked. It took a lot of effort to lift Tingting and move her to a more open space.
The three of them sat down to rest, and Zhuo Yilin saw that Fisher's wrists and ankles were all covered with injuries of various sizes.
Almost all the first aid supplies in his backpack were used to clean Tingting's wounds, and now only half a bottle of medical alcohol was left.
Zhuo Yilin took out a cotton ball, dipped it in medical alcohol, and looked at her: "Where is the injury more serious?"
Fisher's shoulders and waist were actually the most painful. When she carried Tingting on her back, they were bruised by tree bark. But at this moment, she was too embarrassed to take off her clothes, so she had to stretch out her legs, "Just...these on my legs..."
The man sat down in front of her, gently held her legs and feet in his arms, and rolled up her trouser legs.
Fisher's knees were seriously injured, but the flesh and cloth were stuck together and scabbed, and he had already lost consciousness from the pain.
Pulling the fabric now caused excruciating pain, and the wound quickly started to bleed again.
Zhuo Yilin moved very gently, but the pain was still unbearable. She gritted her teeth and lowered her head, tears streaming down her face.
"Just scream out if it hurts. It's okay... Your wound is also inflamed. You need to clean it properly when you get down the mountain." Seeing her in such pain, Zhuo Yilin's heart shrank tightly.
But no matter how painful it is, it still needs to be cleaned.
Fisher burst into tears, holding his hand while shedding tears: "No, no, no... it hurts too much, please stop doing it... I was fine..."
"It's already been torn off. Please bear with me while I disinfect and clean your wound."
"No, no, no..." Fisher shook his head repeatedly, somehow being pretentious, like a child resisting an injection, retracting his legs, wanting to get up and run away.
Zhuo Yilin looked at her helplessly. If this was another patient, he would definitely reprimand her.
But thinking that she had just escaped from danger, she was still in shock, and now her face was pale with pain and she was shivering. All the accusations and reasons came to her lips, but she held back.
"Okay, stop hiding. I won't do it anymore. We'll talk about it when we get down the mountain." The so-called principles cannot be established in front of her.
Fisher looked at him slightly suspiciously.
"Come here, let me take care of the injury on your hand."
"It will also hurt..."
"What should we do? There is no escape..."
The two of you looked at me and I looked at you, as if they were competing.
Finally, Fisher sat back down.
Zhuo Yilin cleaned her wound and dipped a cotton ball in it. She shrank and made a hiss in her mouth.
Tingting, who was observing everything silently from the side, felt strange when looking at this scene.
After spending several days together with Fisher, she always felt that this eldest lady was very generous and generous, and she was very down-to-earth in terms of food and clothing. She did not have the stereotypical bad habits of the second-generation rich who were unruly, capricious and delicate.
But this scene before me...
Well, she suddenly understood why some female men could obviously carry a bucket of water with one hand, but after getting a boyfriend, they suddenly couldn't even unscrew the cap of a mineral water bottle.
Sigh... It's better to continue to pretend to be unconscious and sleep. Anyway, my life is saved, so I don't have to worry about anything.
Zhuo Yilin didn't expect that her fear of pain would seriously affect his work, so he had to look for topics to divert her attention.
"When the earthquake happened, how did you escape? Those people who were traveling with you were all... killed."
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Fisher froze as if petrified, looking at him intently, forgetting the pain.
"They...have all been found?" Although Fisher also knew that those traveling companions must be in danger, but when he heard Zhuo Yilin say this, his heart was still shaken.
So many living lives.
"Based on your mobile phone's positioning, we found the location of the landslide after the earthquake. The life detector showed that there were no signs of life there. The rescue team is still digging, and now... they should have almost found it."
As a doctor, Zhuo Yilin has long been used to life and death.
But in the face of such natural and man-made disasters and such serious casualties, he was still unable to adjust psychologically.
Thinking of the scenes I saw in the earthquake zone in the past few days, I felt so uncomfortable that I couldn't express it.
Fisher was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "When the earthquake happened... I was also panicked. It was Tingting. She reacted quickly and had experience in escaping. She led me to run and crawl with all my might...
…”
In fact, she knew that this was also luck.
If the entire mountain had been landslided, no matter how fast they ran, they would still have been buried.
All I can say is, good life and good luck.
"When the earthquake stopped, we saw that the road under our feet had turned into a cliff. Many of our companions were buried inside, and some were still asking for help... But we couldn't get down, and Tingting was also injured... Tingting said there would be more
There were aftershocks. If we wanted to survive, we had to climb to the top of the mountain, so we continued climbing using our hands and feet..."
Zhuo Yilin listened to her words and looked at her hands again - no wonder, all the fingers were worn out, and several of the fingernails were almost bald.
