"We entered the mountain, thinking that we could get out of the mountain and find rescue, but Tingting's leg injury was too serious. I held her...I couldn't walk a few miles in a day. Then it rained and the mountain was slippery, so we had to
Being cold and hungry...it makes it even harder to walk fast."
Therefore, the two girls supported each other and walked the arduous three-day journey, and Zhuo Yilin only took one night to arrive.
"Fortunately you are walking slowly... If you were walking fast and continued to go deeper, it would be even harder for me to find you."
Zhuo Yilin said gently and wrapped her hands with gauze.
Fisher looked at him, his eyes trembling slightly and his chest burning.
When he raised his eyes to meet his own, Fisher calmed down and finally couldn't help but ask: "What about you? Didn't you go to Switzerland? Why did you come back?"
Zhuo Yilin slightly curled his lips, feeling that she knew what he was asking.
Didn't he confess his love just now?
——Of course it’s because of my deep love and because I can’t let go, so I ran across the country overnight and arrived here non-stop.
"I saw the news about the earthquake in Province Y on the Internet, and immediately donated money through charity channels. But I didn't expect that you would be here. Xiaoqing contacted me and said that you were traveling here. After the earthquake
Lost contact, I——"
Many days later, he still clearly remembered the panic, fear and bewilderment he felt when he learned the news that night.
After pausing for a moment, he suppressed his suddenly chaotic heartbeat and continued in a much lower tone: "I felt like the sky was falling and my mind was blank for a while... When I came back to my senses, I decided without hesitation.
The thought of returning home..."
He stared at the girl eagerly, the love in his heart no longer hidden, "I have experienced earthquakes and know how tragic and desperate it is. I thought that you might be trapped somewhere, might be pressed by something, might be injured.
I am injured, I may not be able to get rescue and I feel the passage of life every minute. My heart..."
On the way back home, the journey was long, but he couldn't sleep.
As soon as you close your eyes, the scene of the earthquake that has passed many years will appear in your mind.
However, the person who was crushed under the rubble was not himself, but Fisher.
His heart felt like he was in purgatory, with more pain and panic than when he suffered the earthquake.
"At that moment, I realized that I can't lose you. If something happens to you because of me, I will never be able to forgive myself in this life. For the rest of my life, living will be nothing but pain and torture for me. So, I must come back and find you.
.”
Fisher felt warm in his heart, but his eyes were embarrassed to look at him again and turned away awkwardly.
"Who said I did it because of you..."
She whispered softly, but Zhuo Yilin still heard her, smiled faintly, and then pulled her into his arms and hugged her.
"Your clothes are all wet. Are you cold? It may take an hour or two for the rescue team to arrive. I'll hold you and sleep for a while, okay?"
Fisher struggled slightly and glanced at Tingting in embarrassment, indicating that there were outsiders and that he should pay attention to the influence.
"I'm fine. You're not wearing enough clothes. Aren't you cold?"
"Of course it's cold, so hugging each other keeps us warm."
"..." The girl didn't answer, but her limbs were still stiff.
Zhuo Yilin said gently again: "I have barely slept since I boarded the plane back to China. I have a severe headache right now. Would you like me to sleep on it?"
He took the initiative to show weakness.
Fisher turned to look at him, pursed his lips, and did not resist.
It didn't rain again today. This open space is wide and open, and you can vaguely feel that the sun is about to shine out.
The two hugged each other tightly. Fisher raised his head in his arms and looked at the green and black beard on his chin and the thick shadows under his eyes. His heartfelt words just now were replayed in his mind - he couldn't help but smile at the corners of his lips.
Provoke a little smile.
She lowered her head, rubbed her cheek in his arms, and closed her eyes tiredly.
This time, I was finally able to fall asleep.
The surroundings are quiet, with the occasional sound of wind and birdsong passing through my ears.
Everything was so quiet and peaceful, as if nothing had happened...
The forest area is vast, and it took a lot of effort for the rescue team to find him.
Zhuo Yilin and Fei Xue were still sleeping when they suddenly heard someone shouting excitedly: "Xiaoxue! Xiaoxue!"
Zhuo Yilin was shocked suddenly and opened his eyes to see Fei Yang, wearing a rescue protective suit, running towards them with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"Xiaoxue?" He shook the sleeping girl in his arms and said gently and joyfully, "The rescue team is here, and your brother is here too."
Fisher was shaken awake, but she was so sleepy that her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.
Before she woke up clearly, Fei Yang had already rushed over, hugging his sister and was ecstatic, "Xiaoxue! You're okay! You scared us to death, do you know! From now on, stay at home and you are not allowed to go anywhere!"
Fisher was completely awakened by his brother's caring roar. He couldn't help but raise his hands and hug his brother tightly. He grinned and started crying again.
"Brother... I thought I was going to die, I thought I would never see you again... Many people were buried at the foot of the mountain. We hiked up the mountain together. One second we were chatting happily, and the next second they
Just disappeared... I thought I was going to die too, thanks to my guide... Wuwu, brother... I miss you, my father, my mother... I want to go home..."
Zhuo Yilin wisely made room for their brothers and went to look after Tingting instead.
The rescue team only brought one stretcher, which was just big enough for Tingting to lie down.
"Her leg is seriously broken, so be careful when moving."
Zhuo Yilin reminded the firefighters to pay special attention when moving Tingting, and then looked back at the brother and sister.
Fisher slept, apparently regaining some strength, and cried louder. Although his voice was still hoarse, it was much better than when he saw him at dawn.
He had mixed feelings in his heart, so he walked over and advised: "Okay, let's go down the mountain first. Your injuries need to be treated as soon as possible, otherwise they will become inflamed and ulcerated after infection, and be careful to leave scars."
Fei Yang was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that he had forgotten to care about his sister, so he quickly pushed her away and looked up and down: "Are you injured? Where is the injury? Is it serious?"
Fisher nodded, shook his head, wiped his tears and said with sobs: "It's okay...it's just a skin injury."
Fei Yang stood up, and Zhuo Yilin went over to help Fei Xue up.
"Can you leave? I'll carry you."
Fisher frowned and whispered: "It's difficult to walk in the mountains, and you haven't had much rest in a few days, so there's no need..."
Fei Yang was about to say, "I'll carry it," but before he could speak, he saw his own sister turning to look at him, "Brother, I haven't eaten or drank for several days, and I can't walk..."
Fei Yang: "..."
Zhuo Yilin: "..."
this--
Master Fei's face was shocked for a moment. His gaze went back and forth between the two of them, and he suddenly understood something: "You feel sorry for your boyfriend, but don't you feel sorry for your brother?"
Fisher blushed and denied guiltily: "He is not my boyfriend..."
"..." Zhuo Yilin coughed lightly, turned his face away, and said nothing.
He knew that the knot in Xiaoxue's heart could not be resolved by his few words.
It's just that now is not the time for affection between children. After finishing the disaster relief work, he will express his feelings again.
Anyway, he has firmed up his mind. There is a long time to come, and he believes that Xiaoxue will eventually accept him again.
The rescue team settled Tingting, lifted the stretcher, and opened the way.
Fei Yang looked at his sister's hopeless look and slapped her hard on the forehead. He turned around and knelt down: "Come up here. I carried you when I was a child, but now I have to carry you when I grow up."
Fisher, who had no brains, muttered as he climbed onto his brother's back: "You will still have to carry it when I get married."
It is a custom in Jiangcheng that when a girl gets married, her brothers must carry her out of the house.
Before Qian Qian got married, it was Zhuo Yilin who did it for her.
When Fei Yang heard this, he mocked rudely: "What, have you found a marriage partner?"
Fisher blushed, then realized what he had said and shut up immediately.
Zhuo Yilin followed beside him, acting as a kind of escort. After all, the mountain road was difficult to navigate, and everyone was in a state of physical exhaustion. If they were not careful, they might fall and eat shit.
After Fisher said those words, he felt so confused that he didn't dare to turn around to look at Zhuo Yilin or talk to him.
The atmosphere among the three people became inexplicably strange.
This virgin forest is really vast, and the rescue team, carrying the wounded, is moving slower and slower.
The weather forecast reported that there would be rain again later, and stranding in the mountains could be dangerous at any time, so the rescue team requested helicopter reinforcements.
After determining their precise location through military satellite maps, the rescue command center quickly dispatched a helicopter to go there.
Fisher never dreamed that he would have such a strange life experience in his life.
After following the firefighters up the ladder and being pulled into the helicopter, she looked down from the air and could clearly see the side of the mountain where they encountered the landslide.
A mountain seemed to have been split open from the middle, a small half of the mountain fell down, and a small barrier lake was even formed at the foot of the mountain.
Thinking of those friends who were traveling together were buried at the foot of the mountain, Fisher's tears couldn't help but fall down.
Zhuo Yilin sat next to her, silently holding her shoulders and comforting her silently.
Fei Yang, who was sitting opposite them, saw this scene and his eyes were full of displeasure.
But it’s hard to say anything in front of outsiders.
Rescue helicopters quickly transported them to the resettlement site.
Here, countless villagers who have lost their homes and loved ones gather together, anxiously waiting for news of their loved ones.
Tingting was seriously injured and needed surgery on her right leg. Zhuo Yilin got off the plane, briefly explained to Fisher, and then followed Tingting's stretcher to the medical point.
There is an urgent shortage of medical care in the disaster area, especially a well-known surgeon with superb medical skills like Zhuo Yilin, who plays an important role.
Fisher looked at his hurried departure and stared blankly, not looking away for a while.
Fei Yang felt angry and sarcastically said: "I don't have a long memory! If it weren't for him, how could you have come here?"
Fisher came back to his senses and glanced at his brother.
"Let's go, your injuries also need to be treated. There is a medical point over there."
Without Zhuo Yilin handling it personally, Fisher knew it was useless to cry out for pain and could only endure it.
After all the injuries on her body were taken care of and she put on clean clothes, her face turned pale in pain and her forehead was covered in cold sweat.
Fei Yang came in with food and water, "Let's have something to eat. A transport truck will leave later. We will follow it to the city and then transfer to the airport."
When Fisher heard that he was about to leave, he was stunned, "Leaving so soon?"
Fei Yang looked surprised, "Quick? I've been here for several days. Now that I find you, of course I have to go back quickly. Mom is going blind from crying at home!"
"I...I think my current physical condition may not be suitable for long-distance travel, and I need to rest for a few days..." She was embarrassed to say that she wanted to stay and accompany Zhuo Yilin in the earthquake rescue, so she had to find an excuse.
Fei Yang exposed it unceremoniously: "Who was crying and shouting that he wanted to go home just now? Now he doesn't want to go back because of a man?"
