Chapter 1484 Going up the Mountain to Rescue!

“Clatter…”

In all parts of Phlippeanes, the storm was still raging.

For days, the gloomy sky showed no signs of clearing up, giving people a very depressing feeling.

Bintar…

This coastal city was very close to the coastline.

When the super typhoon swept over, the sea level rose rapidly. The rising sea water submerged the first floors of many hotels along the coastline.

After several days of torrential rain, the sea level went up continuously and almost drowned these people.

In the surroundings…

Except for the river 500 meters away, there was almost no river to drain the water.

As a result, there was no place for the rainwater to go. It could only flow into the sea. Because of this, the sea waves hitting the shore grew bigger and bigger!

In addition to the rising sea level, the landslide was the most dreadful thing for all the local refugees and the injured.

Bintar was too far away from the capital.

Therefore, it was not yet fully developed. Besides this small town, this place had only a few villages on the mountain. There was nothing else.

Back then…

Many people were rescued from the nearby villages up on the mountains.

It was just that there were lots of villagers. The rescue vehicles had to run back and forth several times before saving everyone in one village.

As the rain got heavier, no one dared to drive the rescue vehicle up the mountain.

After all, these mountains had no roads for cars. Beyond that, no slip-resistant measures had been adopted. Water flows gushed down the mountains like springs. How could anyone have the courage to drive up the mountain? It was undoubtedly a suicide mission.

Under such circumstances…

Some refugees and wounded people in nearby villages could only take the risk of going down the mountain.

More and more people came to the temporary rescue station.

In the rescue station…

The medical rescue team from Huaxia was still treating people.

At this time, many people had seen the news about Fang Qiu on their mobile phones. Everyone checked and shared the news.

Before they watched the news…

Everyone following Fang Qiu knew he had done many things, like treating and bandaging patients, getting back more than a dozen supply trucks at risk, giving psychological guidance to children, and giving them hope.

But…

After these people viewed the news…

Their attention gradually shifted to Fang Qiu’s medical skills.

Not just Fang Qiu but also all the doctors of Chinese Medicine…

Frankly, these people in the rescue station did not intend to observe Huaxia Chinese Medicine doctors’ medical skills at first. The news mentioned that Huaxia Chinese Medicine’s therapeutic effect was impressive. Since then, everyone paid special attention to these aspects.

The Western Medicine team was divided into two squads. They were also observing the treatment of Chinese Medicine doctors.

It turned out that…

The news was in line with reality.

These patients treated with Chinese Medicine recovered very quickly. Whether they had a fever, an infection, a bone fracture, or an external injury, therapies of Huaxia Chinese Medicine were much more effective than ordinary Western Medicine treatments.

Many people were unwilling to accept and believe in Huaxia Chinese Medicine. Their attitude toward Chinese Medicine became much more positive when they witnessed all this. Gradually, they came to believe in Chinese Medicine.

As a result…

In the temporary rescue station in Bintar, those people treated Fang Qiu and the three highly-skilled doctors, Yi Banxian, Bu Chunqiu, and Yu Qing, with great respect.

Even the local official respected them very much. Once anything happened, he would discuss it with Fang Qiu and the others in the first place.

After all, he didn’t have many capable helpers here. Most locals were wounded because of the disaster, and those without injuries were assigned to deal with emergencies.

Therefore, in the face of difficulties, the local official could only rely on Fang Qiu and the others.

As such…

“Clatter, clatter, clatter…”

The local official, who had just received the news, trotted to Fang Qiu and the others. He looked anxious as if something urgent had happened.

This official was Garro Dan, and everyone called him Garro.

He had a pair of lifted eyebrows and an exceptionally high forehead. With his deep and large eye sockets, he looked very dignified.

“What happened?”

Seeing Garro running over with an anxious look, Fang Qiu and the three highly-skilled doctors immediately approached him and asked.

“Bad news.”

Garro became so stunned and anxious that he had no idea what to do with his hands and feet. He said, “I just received the news. A sick elder has been living on the mountain two kilometers away. He has been living there for a long time. His condition has developed from bad to worse these days.”

“I planned to take him down the mountain with a rescue vehicle. But the continuous rainstorm these days caused a flash flood disaster. The old man’s house was almost washed away.”

“Someone who went out for emergency rescue called me and reported the situation. Someone must go to treat the old man as soon as possible. Otherwise, I’m afraid he won’t be able to hold on.”

“Moreover, once the flood breaks out on that mountain, it’ll be too late to save him!”

When Fang Qiu and the three highly-skilled doctors heard that…

Their faces darkened in an instant.

The elder was on a high mountain four kilometers away!

“Why didn’t you tell us about it earlier?”

“Why didn’t you pick him up earlier?”

Bu Chunqiu and Yu Qing asked simultaneously.

“I have no choice.”

Garro said bitterly, “This old man is alone and far away from the nearby villages. When we do the emergency rescue, I can only send these people to more crowded places. That way, we can save more people.”

“Now, people in a few villages are still trapped in the mountain. For now, their problems are not as serious as this one.”

It sounded…

There was nothing they could do about it.

After all, they still had to focus on saving people. Since they couldn’t give consideration to both sides, they could only choose to save more people.

“What should we do?”

Garro was at a loss for what to do.

“I’ll go.”

Yi Banxian immediately said, “Two kilometers is not a long distance. If I go, I can guarantee his safety.”

“Let me do it.”

Fang Qiu immediately stood up and said, “It’s not that I don’t think you can do it, but the rain outside is too heavy. Besides, when you go up the mountain, you might encounter dangers like mountain torrents and mud flows.

“The most important thing is to bring the patient back.

“I’m younger. If I go there, I can do it faster. It will be less dangerous.”

When Garro heard that…

He nodded immediately.

“Let Fang Qiu do it.”

Yu Qing, the highly-skilled doctor, also nodded in agreement and said, “We are all old. If we walk two kilometers, we will wear ourselves out. Don’t show off at this time.”

“That’s right.”

The highly-skilled doctor Bu Chunqiu added, “We’re here to save lives and heal injuries. We need to ensure our safety to save more people. If elders like us encounter any accidents this time, we may not come back alive.”

At first, Yi Banxian was still a little stubborn.

But the other two highly-skilled doctors offered their suggestions. Afterward, Yi Banxian thought about it and found their words made sense. Immediately, he stopped arguing. He seemed to acquiesce in the decision that Fang Qiu would go.

“Do you have an accurate location? Which direction should I go?”

Fang Qiu immediately asked.

“I’ve already asked someone to prepare these necessary items.”

Without hesitation, Garro pulled Fang Qiu to the office next door.

“Fang Qiu, you must save the elder!”

Yi Banxian reminded him.

“Three seniors, please rest assured. I will do my best.”

Fang Qiu nodded in response.

They arrived at the office.

Garro immediately handed over the prepared supplies: two sets of raincoats, a bag of nutrient fluid, and a signal device with a well-fixed position.

Fang Qiu took these things.

He didn’t dare to delay.

On the spot, he put on the raincoat and rushed to the high mountain two kilometers away.

“Be careful. The river 1,500 meters away passes by the foot of that mountain. The continuous heavy rain must have influenced it. You need to take extra security precautions.”

As Garro saw Fang Qiu off outside, he reminded him.

“Um.”

Fang Qiu nodded knowingly.

Examining the direction, he found the mountain was downstream of the bridge he had supported with his bare hands.

Now that the bridge had collapsed, he wondered if any other downstream bridges existed.

If not, it would be troublesome.

As he pondered…

Fang Qiu rushed in the direction displayed by the signal device at full speed.

In the heavy rain…

No one noticed that Fang Qiu activated his internal Qi before flashing out at breakneck speed.

He was afraid that a flash flood might occur. Then, there would be no time for the elder to wait for his rescue.

It was a distance of 1,500 kilometers.

Soon, Fang Qiu covered the distance.

A few minutes later…magic

Fang Qiu finally saw the mountain where the old man lived.

It was a pity…

At the foot of the mountain was a very wide stream of water. It was a few times wider than ordinary rivers. The surging water spread out of the river channel and drowned the vast area around it.

With a flash of wit…

Fang Qiu immediately rushed forward and threw himself into the water.

Protected by the internal Qi, he rushed directly into the river and quickly ran to the foot of the mountain on the other side.

Halfway there, he thought that he would fall onto the riverbed. Unexpectedly, stones and dirt brought here by water had filled the original river.

No wonder the river water would spread out.

Running to the foot of the mountain across the river, Fang Qiu didn’t think much about it.

He looked up.

Sure enough, he saw a wooden house halfway up the mountain.

He immediately rushed over.

Right now…

A large area of flowing red mud surrounded the wooden house. Besides, rainwater constantly flowed down from above. It seemed that a mountain torrent would happen soon.

The wooden house had blocked the mountain torrent. Otherwise, a torrential flood would have erupted long ago.

He took a few quick steps forward.

In a twinkle, Fang Qiu came to the door of the wooden house.

When he pushed the door open, he saw an old man lying on a very narrow bed. Though under the quilt, he was shivering with cold. The fire in the stove had long been extinguished by water. At this time, the ground was covered with water.

Fang Qiu hurried over and quickly checked on the elder. He found that the old man had a fever caused by a bad cold. Immediately, he mobilized his internal Qi to bring down his fever and cure him.

Then Fang Qiu removed his coat and put it on the old man. Besides, he wore the raincoat he had brought for him.

He was too hasty to say a word.

At once, he carried the elder on his back and ran out.

Just then…

From the other side of the mountain came a burst of panic footsteps.

Fang Qiu turned around and took a look.

“Villagers. They must come from the village.”

On Fang Qiu’s back, the old man pointed at the group of people and said.

“Sir, how many villages are there nearby?”

Fang Qiu hurriedly asked in the local language he had just learned.

“One. Only one.”

The old man answered.

Just then…

“Crack!”

A crisp sound was heard.

Fang Qiu turned to look.

A surging torrent crushed the elder’s wooden house. Then, it rushed fast toward Fang Qiu at the foot of the mountain!
