"Clatter …"
The heavy rain continued all over the Philippines.
The sky, which had been overcast for days, showed no sign of clearing up, giving people a very depressing feeling.
Bintal.
As a coastal city, it was very close to the coastline.
When the super typhoon swept through, the sea level began to rise rapidly, submerging many hotels built on the coastline to the height of one floor.
The continuous torrential rain for several days caused the sea level to rise continuously. It was almost going to drown this place.
Around.
Except for the river a mile away, there was almost no drainage channel.
As a result, after the rain fell, there was no place to discharge it. It could only flow into the sea, making the waves bigger and bigger!
In addition to the rising sea level, the thing that the local refugees and the injured were most afraid of was landslides.
Because it was too far from the capital.
Bintal had not been wantonly developed. Except for this small town, there were only a few villages on the mountains nearby. There was nothing else.
Before.
Many people were rescued from the villages on the nearby mountains.
However, there were too many villages. The rescue vehicles had to go back and forth several times to save a person in a village.
Now, as the rain was getting heavier, the rescue vehicles did not dare to go up the mountain.
After all, these mountains had no roads built, no anti-slip measures and so on. When the water was flowing down the mountain like a spring, who dared to drive up the mountain was undoubtedly courting death.
In this case.
Some refugees and the injured in the nearby villages could only take the risk to go down the mountain.
More and more injured people came to the temporary rescue station.
In the rescue station.
The medical rescue team from Huaxia was still treating people.
Many people received the news of Fang Qiu being on the news through their mobile phones. Everyone read it to each other.
Before watching the news.
All the attention on Fang Qiu was focused on Fang Qiu treating and bandaging people, pushing back more than a dozen supply vehicles at the risk of danger, giving psychological counseling to the children, letting the children see hope, and so on.
However.
After watching the news.
Everyone's attention gradually shifted to Fang Qiu's medical skills.
Not only Fang Qiu, but all the Chinese Medicine doctors.
The people in the rescue station did not pay much attention to the medical skills of these Huaxia Chinese Medicine doctors from the beginning. Now after seeing the news that the treatment effect of Huaxia Chinese Medicine doctors was very good, everyone deliberately paid attention to it.
The Western Medicine team divided into two groups had also been observing the treatment of the Chinese Medicine doctors.
In the end …
It was exactly as the news reported.
The patients who received the treatment of TCM recovered quickly. Regardless of fever, infection, or bone fractures, as long as they were treated by TCM, the effect was much better than Western Medicine.
Many people who had been unwilling to accept and believe in Huaxia's traditional Chinese medicine also changed their attitude towards traditional Chinese medicine after seeing this situation. They also began to believe in traditional Chinese medicine.
It was because of this.
The three highly-skilled doctors, Fang Qiu, Yi Banxian, Bo Chunqiu, and Yu Qing, were respected by many people at Bintal's temporary rescue station for their thick skin.
Even the local officials were very respectful of them. Once anything happened, they would look for Fang Qiu and the others immediately to discuss it.
After all, he did not have many people here. Most of the local people were injured because of the disaster, and those who were not injured were also assigned to rescue.
Therefore, when they encountered difficulties, the local officials could only rely on Fang Qiu and the others.
This is not.
"Pata, pata …"
The local official, who had just received a message, trotted all the way to Fang Qiu and the others. He looked anxious as if something urgent had happened.
The official's name was Dan Garo, and everyone called him Garo.
He had a pair of very high eyebrows, very big eyes, and a very high forehead. He looked very dignified.
"What happened?"
Seeing Garo running over with an anxious face, Fang Qiu and the three highly-skilled doctors immediately came up to ask.
"Bad news."
Garo was so anxious that he did not know where to put his hands. He looked at Fang Qiu and said, "I just received the news that there is an old man who lives on the mountain all year round on a mountain four miles away. He is usually sick, and it has become more serious these days."
"Originally, I was going to wait for the rain to stop, and then let the rescue car go to pick him up. But this continuous heavy rain has caused a mountain flood, and the old man's house is almost washed away."
"I just heard the people who went out to rescue the old man called to report that we must go to see the old man as soon as possible. If we don't go now, the old man may not be able to hold on."
"Moreover, once the mountain flood breaks out, it will be too late to save him!"
Hearing that.
The faces of Fang Qiu and the three highly-skilled doctors instantly darkened.
On a tall mountain four miles away?
"Why didn't you say so earlier?"
"Why didn't you pick him up earlier?"
Bo Chunqiu and Yu Qing asked at the same time.
"There was no other way."
Garo said bitterly, "This old man is alone, and he is far away from the nearby mountain village. When the rescue is carried out, I can only arrange to go to places with more people to save as many people as possible."
"Now, there are still a few mountain villagers trapped on the mountain and unable to get down, but the problem is not as serious as here for the time being."
It sounded.
There was really no other way.
After all, they still had to focus on saving people. In the case that they could not take care of both sides, they could only take the lead with more people.
"What can we do?"
Garo was anxious and at a loss.
"I'll go."
Yi Banxian immediately said, "Four miles is not far. If I go, I should be able to ensure that the old man is safe."
"I'll go."
Fang Qiu immediately stood up and said, "I don't think you can't do it, but the rain outside is too heavy, and we have to go up the mountain. We may encounter dangers such as mountain floods and mudslides."
"The most important thing is to bring the patient back."
"I'm younger. If I go, it will be faster, and it will be less dangerous."
Hearing that.
Garo immediately nodded.
"Let Fang Qiu go."
Yu Qing also nodded and echoed, "We are all old. Our bodies can't stand walking for four miles. We can't force ourselves."
"That's right."
Bo Chunqiu said, "The purpose of our coming here is to save the dying and help the injured. Only by ensuring our own safety can we save more people. If we encounter any accidents, we may not be able to come back with our old bones."
Yi Banxian was a little stubborn at first.
But when he heard the persuasion of the two highly-skilled doctors, he thought for a while.
It was true. He didn't say anything more and acquiesced to the choice of letting Fang Qiu go.
"Do you have an accurate location? Which direction should I go?"
Fang Qiu immediately asked.
"I've asked people to prepare everything."
Garo did not hesitate and immediately pulled Fang Qiu to the office next to him.
"Fang Qiu, you must save the patient!"
Yi Banxian reminded.
"Seniors, don't worry. I will try my best."
Fang Qiu nodded in response.
They came to the office.
Garo immediately wrapped the prepared materials, including two sets of raincoats, a bag of nutrient solution, and a signal device that had been set.
He took these things.
Fang Qiu did not dare to hesitate.
He immediately put on the raincoat and set off for the mountain four kilometers away.
"You must be careful. That river three miles away also passes by the foot of the mountain. The continuous heavy rain will definitely affect it. You must pay attention to your safety."
Garo reminded Fang Qiu while sending him out.
"Yes."
Fang Qiu nodded with understanding.
Looking at the direction carefully, he found that the direction of the mountain was the downstream of the river where he had used his hand to hold the bridge.
Now the bridge deck had collapsed. He didn't know if there were other bridges downstream.
If there weren't, it would be troublesome.
While thinking.
Fang Qiu rushed in the direction of the signal device at full speed.
In the heavy rain.
No one saw it. Fang Qiu directly activated his internal Qi and rushed out at top speed.
He was afraid that there would be a flash flood and the old man would not be able to wait for his rescue.
Three miles away.
Soon, Fang Qiu crossed it.
A few minutes later.
Fang Qiu finally saw the high mountain where the old man lived.
However.
At this time, at the foot of the mountain, there was a very wide flow of water, like a river that had been magnified several times. The turbulent water directly spread out from the river and submerged the wide terrain around.
His mind moved.
Fang Qiu immediately rushed in to test the water.
Under the protection of the internal Qi, he directly rushed into the river and quickly ran to the foot of the mountain on the opposite bank.
He thought that when he ran to the middle, he would fall into the river. Unexpectedly, the position of the river was filled with stones and silt washed by the river.
No wonder the river spread out.
Running to the foot of the mountain on the opposite bank of the river, Fang Qiu did not think much.
He looked up.
Sure enough, he saw a wooden house halfway up the mountain.
Immediately, he rushed up.
At this time.
There was already a large area of red mud washed down like water around the wooden house. There was still rain flowing down from above. It seemed that it would not take long to form a flash flood.
Speaking of which, if it were not for the wooden house, maybe the flash flood would have already broken out.
Three steps and two steps.
In the blink of an eye, Fang Qiu came to the door of the wooden house.
Pushing the door open, an old man was lying on a very narrow bed, covered with a quilt and shivering. The stove in the house had long been washed out by the fire and the ground was full of water.
Fang Qiu hurried over and quickly examined the old man. He found that the old man had a fever caused by a bad cold. Immediately, he activated his internal Qi and quickly helped the old man to reduce the fever and cure the disease.
Then he took off his clothes and put them on the old man. He also put the raincoat he brought on the old man.
He didn't dare to say a word more.
He immediately ran outside with the old man on his back.
At this time.
On the other side of the hillside, there was also a panicked sound of footsteps.
Fang Qiu turned his head and took a look.
"Village, it's the villagers."
On Fang Qiu's back, the old man pointed to the group of people and said.
"Old man, how many villages are there nearby?"
Fang Qiu hurriedly asked in the local language that he had just learned.
"One, only one."
The old man opened his mouth to reply.
But at this time.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound came.
He turned his head and looked.
