Chapter 1478 Heavy Rainfall, Trapped Vehicles, Rescue!

They were split up into groups.

“We are now in Burgyos on Phlippeanes’s coastline. It is very far away from Manilla, the capital of Phlippeanes. The super typhoon had passed the disaster area, but you must be careful when performing the rescue mission.”

“Our first team’s destination is Bintar, a coastal town. As the disaster occurred, it was seriously damaged.”

“Come on, everyone. Let’s save more people.”

Yi Banxian, the first group leader, took the initiative to cheer everyone up.

Soon…

The emergency transport helicopter prepared by the government arrived.

The first group was led by three highly-skilled doctors: Yi Banxian, Bu Chunqiu, and Yu Qing. There was Fang Qiu, the other nine Chinese Medicine doctors, and ten Western Medicine doctors. They hurriedly boarded the plane and rushed to Bintar.

The helicopter could quickly take them from Burgyos to Bintar.

The first team…

They soon arrived in Binter.

High in the sky, Fang Qiu could clearly see a huge coral beach below. By the sea were many excessively luxurious hotels.

This place seemed to have been a thriving tourist resort in Phlippeanes. Most of the people trapped here couldn’t be locals. Instead, they should be tourists from other countries.

Right now…

After the super typhoon, almost all the buildings in the not-so-big town collapsed.

Many trees had been uprooted by the roots.

The seawater had already submerged half of the town!

The situation after the disaster was visible to the naked eye.

Some people already walked on the streets, but they were all injured. However, no one had come to help them as they looked around for hope.

When they saw the helicopter, their eyes lit up.

One by one, they rushed to the temporary rescue station set up by the local officials.

Soon, the helicopter landed at the temporary rescue station.

Fang Qiu and the others quickly got off the plane.

The accompanying staff came out with the supplies. Quickly, they moved different items into the rescue station, ready to distribute them to everyone.

Help arrived.

The local officials immediately arranged for Fang Qiu and the others to enter the area for the wounded.

It was a very large emergency warehouse.

It was specially built to deal with natural disasters, just like the grain management offices all over Huaxia. However, seawater brought by the super typhoon washed away the food stored in it.

All the wounded were tired, thirsty, and hungry!

The supplies arrived.

Everyone saw hope.

“There are too many patients. Let’s start working. Cure them if you can. Otherwise, ask us for help.”

Yi Banxian said.

“Okay.”

Everyone nodded in unison.

Then, led by the three highly-skilled doctors, everyone began treating their patients.

During the treatments…

More and more people came to the temporary rescue station.

As Fang Qiu had expected, most patients were foreigners, and the locals were only a small number.

Because of this…

Everyone paid more attention to the treatment.

This time…

To provide medical assistance…

They brought all the medical tools they could, including tools for moxibustion and acupuncture.

They even brought ready-made medicinal potions. Patients could drink their medicinal potions just by heating them up.

There were ten Chinese Medicine doctors.

None of them dared to waste a second.

After seeing one injured person, they accepted the next one without a break.

In addition to treating patients with all kinds of tools, every Chinese Medicine doctor used methods like Four Methods to Diagnose a Disease and acupuncture. They tried their best to cure every patient coming to them.

They worked without resting.

All the patients received the food and began to eat in large mouthfuls. Yet, Fang Qiu and the others still didn’t even take a sip of water to moisten their throats.

It was such a touching sight.

The wounded witnessed all of this.

When they received treatments, they would ask which country these doctors came from. After these doctors dressed and treated their wounds, these patients repeatedly thanked them.

Some patients with minor injuries were willing to share their food and water with doctors to express their gratitude.

In a blink of an eye…

A day passed by.

Even when it was getting dark, they had not finished treating all the patients. They continued accepting patients to treat them.

Here…

Fang Qiu looked around. Except for himself, the three highly-skilled doctors saw the most patients at the fastest speed. The other Chinese Medicine doctors accepted patients at a lower pace, but they did their best to diagnose and bandage these patients.

“Seniors, it has been an entire day. You all should rest first.”

Fang Qiu hurriedly advised them for fear that the three couldn’t stand it. Though over sixty years old, all three highly-skilled doctors had been making all-out efforts to treat the patients.

Unexpectedly…

After Fang Qiu’s persuasion…

The three highly-skilled doctors, Yi Banxian, Bu Chunqiu, and Yu Qing, shook their heads one after another. They didn’t want to rest and continued bandaging and treating their patients.

Seeing this, Fang Qiu knew he couldn’t persuade them. He could only give a wry smile. In his heart, he deeply admired the three highly-skilled doctors. At the same time, he sped up to treat the wounded.

Since the three highly-skilled doctors felt reluctant to rest, he could only try his best to accept as many patients as possible. By doing so, the others would not be exhausted.

Near them…

The Western Medicine doctors who followed them here were also busy disinfecting and dressing the wounds on their injuries. Meanwhile, they monitored their physical indices. These Chinese Medicine doctors never stopped curing diseases and saving lives despite all the hardships.

These Western Medicine doctors were deeply touched by their indomitable spirit.

They all sighed with emotion and looked at these Chinese Medicine doctors, their eyes full of admiration.

Originally…

They wanted to have a rest.

Anyway, they couldn’t finish bandaging so many patients in a short time.

But even the three old doctors of Chinese Medicine in their sixties were unwilling to rest. How could they slack off and relax?

Immediately, everyone put all their energies into their work!

Just then…

“Pitter-patter…”

It suddenly rained cats and dogs outside.

On a windy day, the heavy rain always caught people off guard.

However…

No one cared about it. They continued treating their patient with all their might.

The rescue lasted until the middle of the night.

At the request of Fang Qiu and other local officials, they ate some bread and drank water. After that, they went on to provide medical treatment.

Fortunately…

Although lots of injured people came, few suffered terrible injuries.

Most of them just got some bruises or fractures, so these doctors could handle the situation!

At one o’clock in the morning…

They would finally finish treating all the injured. There were only a dozen or so patients with minor injuries.

Right now…

The heavy rain outside did not stop and became heavier and heavier.

“Clatter, clatter, clatter…”

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps.

A local rushed in and shouted at everyone, “More than a dozen rescue vehicles are on their way here, but they are all trapped in the mud a few miles away. The rain is so heavy. Hurry up and come to help. It’ll be too late when the sea tides come!”

When everyone in the warehouse heard that…

They were shocked.

The goods and materials in a dozen rescue vehicles?

They might be the only supplies transported here in the near future. If waves washed them away, it would be troublesome.

The local officials started getting worried.

These wounded people were even more anxious.

Without supplies, they would die of thirst and starvation. What was worse, they might even freeze to death in sleep. The temperature on windy days would decline sharply!

But…

Who should go out to rescue these precious materials?

Those injured people or those who had fractures couldn’t go there.

Moreover, as the rainstorm came, this area must be full of perils and pitfalls. It would be too dangerous to go out now. Besides, that place was on the shore and far away. On the way there, they might be buried by mud-rock flows!

Thinking of those possibilities, they fell silent.

The local official was anxious.

Most of these people were tourists from other places. If they were locals, he could try to mobilize them. How could he arouse these visitors to help?

In this case, he could only do it himself.

With this in mind…

The local official rolled up his sleeves and was ready to solve the problem in person.

“I’ll go.”

Fang Qiu said, “I’m not injured; almost all the patients have been treated. I can go to the rescue.”

The local official took a look at him.

Though a little excited, he said with a wry smile, “You’re alone. It’s useless for you to go there. There are more than a dozen rescue vehicles. How can you help them?”

When the others heard this…

Some young people were slightly injured. At this time, their wounds had been bandaged. When Fang Qiu volunteered to help, they no longer hesitated and offered to help.

Soon…

More than a dozen young people gathered together.

“Come here and put on the raincoats.”

The local official brought the raincoats and tools. He was also ready to go with them.

“You should stay.”

Fang Qiu took the raincoat and told him, “You need to manage this place and contact the outside world. Leave the rescue to us!”

After that…

Fang Qiu led the team. There were young people and several members of the Huaxia medical team who chose to help. With raincoats, they ran fast outside after the messenger.

The place was a few miles away.

This group ran for a long time and finally arrived.

When they reached the place…

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Right there…

More than a dozen rescue vehicles were trapped in the mud flow caused by landslides. Since the mud flow had covered the road, these cars went to the roadside near the beach.

As a result, they got stuck in the mud flow and the sand on the beach.

All the sand was very damp.

Therefore, just as these vehicles were here, they could move forward. Unfortunately, they were all gradually trapped on their way ahead. As time went by, they sank deeper and deeper.

Almost half of the first three cars were in the mud.

Drivers of more than a dozen rescue vehicles had found a lot of stones. They dug and removed the mud before the first car, trying to put some rocks under it. Unfortunately, it had sunk too deep for them to push it out.

“We should push these vehicles together. Let’s deal with them one by one.”

Fang Qiu called out.

Then the group of people…

There were now more than thirty people, including the drivers. In the heavy rain, they rushed up and grabbed different parts of the first car. Then, they began pushing it desperately.

However…

This vehicle was surrounded by sand. When everyone exerted their strength, their feet sank into the sand. In this way, they could not exert any force to push the car.

However, no one gave up.

They knew this was the only way.

“The driver, get in the car and start the engine.”

Fang Qiu shouted loudly.

It rained harder and harder. Fang Qiu knew they didn’t have much time left. Immediately, he secretly activated his internal Qi and planned to push it out with his internal Qi. Otherwise, even if they worked until dawn, they couldn’t get these cars out of the sand!
