The search and rescue was carried out in silence. Other than not letting go of any abnormalities under their feet, there was no other better way. In this dark space, they didn't know where they were or where they were.
Lou Xiaoyi let the light sweep across the uneven sand under his feet. He couldn't tell if there was someone buried in the sand.
When he passed by a sand dune, he noticed a black shadow. He didn't pay much attention to it before, because in such a dark space, the poor wind lantern would cast shadows everywhere. But this time, his heart skipped a beat, and he reached out his hand to touch it.
It was a strand of hair!
"Fatty, come here!"
Lou Xiaoyi didn't dare to use the shovel for fear of hurting the person buried in the sand. Fortunately, the layer of sand that buried the person was very thin. After brushing away the sand, he realized that it was Li San Lang!
His heartbeat was almost non-existent!
Lou Xiaoyi, Qi Er, and Fatty dug him out as fast as they could. Qi Er, who was always calm, was on the verge of breaking down. Fatty's eyes were dull and helpless.
However, Lou Xiaoyi didn't lose his cool. He knew that there was still a chance of survival for such a suffocating person. Li San's hand was still warm, which meant that his heart hadn't stopped beating for long.
Therefore, in front of Qi Er and Fatty's dumbfounded eyes, he straddled Li San's body, folded his hands, and began to press Li San's chest rhythmically. He had done first-aid training by chance in his previous life. Although he wasn't professional, it was still effective.
He shouted to Fatty, "Mouth to mouth, pass air to him!"
This was the good thing about Fatty. Although he was talkative, he didn't say much at critical moments. He could barely understand the meaning of passing air, but he didn't know if it would be useful in this situation. But as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he didn't mind doing his best!
Fatty Qian stuck out his big belly and pumped air into Li San's mouth with all his might. He was very dedicated to his job and even used his fat tongue to open Li San's mouth, fearing that Li San's tightly shut teeth would block the air from entering. This was also a tough job. There were a few times when Fatty almost couldn't hold on, but when he saw the thin and weak Lou Xiaoyi endlessly pressing on Li San's chest, he couldn't help but stop!
Lou Xiaoyi hadn't given up in the fight for the Grim Reaper, and neither would he, Fatty Qian!
Just as Qi Er, who was at the side, was about to cry out for them to stop, a violent cough was heard!
Lou Xiaoyi's legs went limp, but Fatty Qian was full of energy in a moment of surprise. He held Li San's mouth and continued to kiss and kiss until Li San Lang blocked him with his hands and feet awkwardly.
Lou Xiaoyi panted, "Fatty, that's enough. If you continue to transfer air, you'll choke her to death again!"
Qi Er's eyes lit up. "Little Yi, you know medicine?"
Lou Xiaoyi smiled bitterly. "How would I know? It's just that when I was young, I saw a wandering Taoist priest use this method to save a drowning child. It's because the child had no heartbeat that I used it in a hurry. It's Third Brother Li who is lucky, not my medical skills! "
Qi Er wanted to continue searching, but Lou Xiaoyi pulled him back.
"Second Brother, I understand how you feel, but now isn't the time for all three of us to look for Madam Feng. Don't forget that there are still three seriously injured people! There's no point in saving one over here!
I have a lot of medicine in my bag, all for external injuries. You're experienced, so apply it on them. Don't lose too much blood!
Leave the search to me and Fatty!
There's one thing you have to be clear about! We might not be able to get out for the time being! So before help arrives, I'm afraid we'll have to stay here for a few more days. So, it's very important to save the injured! "
Qi Er didn't argue. After saving Li San Lang, he finally recovered his original calmness because the sudden change had completely disrupted his state of mind. As the initiator, leader, and main person in charge of this expedition, the huge pressure caused him to fall into confusion and fear at the beginning of the rescue. No matter how experienced he was, he was only a nineteen-year-old youth, a rookie who had never experienced life and death.
Now, he knew what he had to do!
From a boy to a man, it only took a moment for a certain unexpected event to happen!
Two hours later, when Lou Xiaoyi and Fatty Qian carried Madam Feng's body over, he just rubbed his eyes and continued to apply medicine to Tie Zhu and the other two's wounds.
Lou Xiaoyi was exhausted, not only physically, but also mentally. He didn't dare to think about how to explain to the two madams when he returned. It was almost inevitable that he would be grounded again because what he was involved in shouldn't be something that a young master of the Sima Manor should be involved in!
Lying on a sand dune, he blew out the wind lamp. Because he didn't know how long he would have to stay in this place, he wanted to save as much as he could and just keep the lamp for treating injuries.
A figure slowly crawled over. It was Li San Lang.
"Little Yi, thank you for saving my life. Fatty Qian already told me that your Third Brother isn't someone who only knows how to talk. If you have any requests in the future, just tell me!
What your Third Brother has, you will also have; what your Third Brother doesn't have, you will still have! "
Lou Xiaoyi smiled and stared at him. "I don't have any requests! I just have one question. Third Brother, what is your purpose for being so close to my Lou Province these days? "
Li San Lang was stunned. This scholar was really amazing. He couldn't hide anything from him. In this accident, it was all thanks to him that everyone was saved. Such a person was truly worthy of being a young master of the Sima Family. The father was a hero, and the son wasn't a coward!
"Hehe, I really can't say this, but it's not a bad thing. When we return, you will naturally know when you have time to come to my Li Manor. It's really not a bad thing, believe me!"
After resting for a while, Lou Xiaoyi began to help Qi Er take care of the injured. It wasn't too complicated. There was a limited amount of medicine, and they were all medicine he brought for external injuries. He couldn't do anything about internal injuries. This was something no one could do about. The only thing they could do was to stop the bleeding of the three heavily injured. Because it was dark enough, and because they had been tense all this time, they had unknowingly forgotten about fainting at the sight of blood.
Among the three heavily injured, Tie Zhu's injury was the most serious. It was a head injury, and he had been unconscious the whole time. Youngest Han's internal organs were injured and he couldn't move, but he was still conscious. Monkey's injuries were slightly lighter, but both his legs were broken. They were tied up with ropes and shovels. No one knew if the bones were right or if he would be disabled in the future.
The few who could move gathered around the injured. Qi Er opened his mouth.
"This time, I, Qi Er, was the one who initiated the exploration. The responsibility lies with me, so there's no need to say more!"
Fatty Qian started to clamor. "Everyone has a part to play. Second Brother, why do you have to put all the blame on yourself?"
Qi Er was unmoved. "Don't pester endlessly! I, Qi Er, can't be said to be indomitable, but in front of Madam Feng's spirit, I can't shirk responsibility!
If it's mine, it's mine! If it's not mine, I won't take responsibility!
Also, I want to say that everyone is still alive today, and we should thank one person!
It's Xiaoyi!
It's him who was the first to light up the wind lantern and dig me out! Then, he dug out Fatty! Then, you all were saved! Among them, he snatched Third Brother Li back from the Grim Reaper. I hope you all remember this! "
