Chapter 75 Rescue in Progress
Everyone focused immediately.
"Is there really someone?"
The little soldier's eyes were red. "It must be her mother and sister."
The middle-aged man nodded and signaled the people around him to help.
Lift off a layer of ruins.
The huge rocks that slid down from the mountain cleverly formed a space.
A faint sound could be heard from inside.
"Find a smaller comrade."
I saw a thin little soldier running over quickly.
Climbed in carefully.
Others were trying to use wood to support the big rocks to ensure living space and prevent secondary collapse.
After a long time, a loud voice came from inside.
"Captain! There really is someone inside. There's a pregnant woman! She's trapped in the cellar."
"Captain, I can't get her out. Her belly is too big and there's not enough room."
Pregnant woman and cellar, these two words instantly make people's faces solemn, as squeezing, collapse and burial may happen at any time and anywhere.
But acting rashly could be more serious.
The soldiers in charge of the rescue immediately gathered together and began to discuss how to open a passage for life.
"Okay, let's do this."
Several young soldiers quickly looked for an angle and slowly prepared to move some heavy objects away.
I saw that they were just about to move the boulder away.
Some looseness underfoot.
"No, you can't move. There's still too much space down there."
Everyone was at a loss.
At this moment, drops of water suddenly fell on everyone's faces.
It's raining?
There was no time to react,
The rain was getting heavier.
Everyone's faces looked even uglier. If it rained, the rescue work would be even more difficult. Once the soil became soft, the boulder would surely fall.
Everyone's heart was lifted up.
"Oh no, Captain. The pregnant woman has a stomachache and seems to be about to give birth. What should we do?"
It never rains but it pours.
Bad news comes one after another.
Captain Lu, who was in charge, was stunned.
He immediately shouted, "Is there any doctor comrade who is less than 1.7 meters tall and willing to come in?"
Many people looked at each other.
Going in at this time would be nothing more than gambling with your own life.
Moreover, most of the people who come are male doctors and female nurses.
There are not many female doctors who are skilled in medicine.
"Let me in!"
Then a slightly older female military doctor stood up.
"Doctor Yang, your hand is injured. Going in like this..."
"It's okay. The child and the pregnant woman are more important. Please cooperate with the doctors at the People's Hospital."
Doctor Yang walked over quickly.
But when she got one meter in, she got stuck. Although she was not tall, she was a little fat and could not get in at all.
Are we just going to watch a life disappear before our eyes?
"I'll go!"
Shen Qingran suddenly stepped forward and said to Captain Lu seriously, "Captain Lu, I can deliver a baby, let me go in!"
Qin Xiangnan ran over quickly.
“Doctor Shen, it’s too dangerous.”
He choked up and didn't know how to say some words.
He shouldn't have done this at this time, but he couldn't let Shen Qingran take the risk.
"Oh no, Captain. The pregnant woman's voice is getting weaker and weaker."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Qingran.
Shen Qingran made a prompt decision.
Speak to Captain Lu.
"Captain Lu, prepare some medical supplies for me, and give me something to wrap the baby."
Captain Lu was also an old soldier. Looking at Shen Qingran's young face, he quickly stood up and saluted and bowed towards her.
"Comrade Shen! Thank you for your hard work! I'll prepare it for you right away."
It is admirable that a female comrade of such a young age can have such a spirit of selfless dedication.
Doctor Yang patted her shoulder.
With appreciation and satisfaction on his face, he said, "Good girl."
Shen Qingran crawled into the passage resolutely.
Qin Xiangnan stood outside with red eyes.
Shen Qingran walked along the dark passage, moving forward carefully step by step.
The pain in the palms of my hands from crawling seemed nothing.
After a while, she saw a little warrior in front, and there was a space below him.
Shen Qingran glanced at the pregnant woman sitting and lying on the ground below. There was not much space around her.
"Doctor, I'll help you down."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
The young soldier took her arm and slowly lowered her down.
Shen Qingran stood on tiptoe and took a look at the space. Is there a stone slab on it?
No wonder such a special space was formed.
"Comrade? Comrade?"
Shen Qingran gently patted the pregnant woman who was already unconscious.
Her body and face were covered in sweat.
It was as if he had just been pulled out of the water.
"Juanjuan, Juanjuan......."
The woman kept shouting, and Shen Qingran noticed that she was holding a cloth tiger in her hand.
It is obviously a pair with the cloth tiger of the girl just now.
This woman is really the mother of the little girl just now.
"Comrade?"
Shen Qingran took out a silver needle from her waist and gently pricked her acupoint.
The pregnant woman, exhausted, slowly opened her eyes.
His first reaction was to reach out and hold Shen Qingran's hand, his eyes filled with anxiety. "Juanjuan, have you seen Juanjuan?"
Shen Qingran patted the back of her hand with his backhand and lowered his head, "Comrade, the child is fine, don't worry."
The woman exhaled heavily.
"Okay, okay." As she said this, she couldn't help but scream out in surprise as she felt a pain in her stomach.
"ah--"
She held her tight belly tightly with both hands.
Shen Qingran touched her arm soothingly.
"Relax, breathe, yes, come on, breathe in, breathe out——"
The woman felt the pain ease for a moment.
"Don't be afraid, let me see how many fingers you have opened."
Shen Qingran bent down and looked.
I didn't expect that it has already opened to eight fingers.
She calmed herself down, spoke in a gentle voice, and took out a White Rabbit candy from her pocket.
"Sister-in-law, have some candy."
A sweet taste spread across the tip of the tongue, and a look flashed in the woman's eyes.
His voice was hoarse, "I haven't tasted this flavor for a long time..."
Shen Qingran smiled, took out something skillfully, and placed it under the woman.
"Sister-in-law, it will be fine."
"Just cooperate with me later, and you will definitely be able to get out safely!"
"Okay~"
The contractions came more frequently. Shen Qingran touched her abdomen with her left hand, feeling the changes in the fetus, and took her pulse with her right hand.
Time passes by every second.
"Sister-in-law, it's time, follow my instructions. Yes, inhale."
"Hold it for a moment."
"Exhale—"
The gentle voice of command echoed in the small space.
Faintly, water drops began to fall along the cracks.
But it couldn't affect Shen Qingran's mood.
“It’s out!”
Shen Qingran held the child in her arms and placed her on the quilt.
The umbilical cord was cut with scissors.
Holding a child.
"Sister-in-law, it's a girl."
The woman looked at the child, her eyes red and swollen, and she choked up, "Just like my sister when she was a child."
Shen Qingran's hands were trembling slightly, and his knuckles were curled up and turned white.
"Sister-in-law, don't cry. I'll ask the little soldier outside to take the child out first."
The woman nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Comrade, thank you for your help."
The little soldier's eyes turned red as he looked at the red-faced child in his arms.
"Comrade Doctor, wait for me. I'll be right there."
Soon the little soldier came back.
"Sister-in-law, you go first. Step on me."
The woman hesitated, "Comrade Doctor, you go first."
Shen Qingran supported her with one hand.
"Sister-in-law, you go up first, I'll follow right up."
The woman had no choice but to nod and climb up.
Just as the little soldier was about to turn around, he suddenly trembled.
There was a loud "boom".
I saw a huge stone falling towards the space behind him.
