Chapter 503 Escape



After all, the people who helped were just a few kids, and they had just escaped from the gates of hell. They were so scared that two and a half of their three souls were lost. They originally had ten points of strength, but now they could only use five or six points, which was considered a lot.

In addition, because the ice was too slippery and Su Qingluan couldn't use much strength, everyone didn't find the trick to exert force together at the beginning. Not only did Chen Jiabao not move at all, but Su Qingluan felt that she was almost strangled to the point of suffocation.

Fortunately, as they chanted, everyone got the rhythm and gradually learned how to coordinate their efforts. Everyone—including Su Xueyan, who was watching from the sidelines and didn't move forward—began chanting in unison, "One, two, three! One, two, three!"

Soon, the children mastered the trick of concentrating their strength, and Chen Jiabao slowly got out of the ice hole.

Originally, Chen Jiabao wanted to stand up by supporting himself on the ice, but it was obvious that his entire lower body had been frozen. Let alone standing up, it was now very difficult for him to move at all.

"Come on everyone! Chen Jiabao will be able to get ashore soon!" Su Qingluan shouted behind her.

The children were also very happy when they heard it. They shouted slogans and pulled the rope more vigorously.

Although Su Qingluan didn't stop, she was still feeling pessimistic. Chen Jiabao's leg had been soaked in cold water for a long time, and his clothes were soaked. Even if he was rescued, if he wasn't quickly dressed and given first aid, he might not drown today. But what would happen next?

First of all, let alone this era, even in the modern society of Su Qingluan's previous life, falling into the water in winter could cause cardiac arrest due to the low temperature. There was no emergency equipment such as a defibrillator!

And even if you survive sudden death from hypothermia, there are still myocarditis or shock caused by high temperature, or local limb ischemia and necrosis caused by hypothermia...

These problems are very difficult even in modern society with advanced medical care. Su Qingluan simply couldn't imagine what kind of difficulties Chen Jiabao had to face.

Although this kid is really annoying, he is not so annoying that people feel indifferent to the situation he faces.

Su Qingluan sighed: I hope that after this incident, if Chen Jiabao can get through it, he will not be so reckless anymore and restrain his personality.

But what made people happy and somewhat relieved was that just when everyone was about to pull Chen Jiabao ashore, Su Qingluan heard the hurried footsteps of someone approaching behind her, and Tian Xing'er's very prominent and clear voice: "They are here, hurry up!"

Su Qingluan was delighted: Tian Xing'er called the villagers over! In any case, it was definitely a good thing to have a few adults here at this time. Putting aside other things, including herself, the children who had just rescued others were already exhausted. By the time they could move Chen Jiabao to the village, who knew when.

At that time, it was possible that Chen Jiabao would be frozen to death or get frostbitten - the sooner Chen Jiabao was rescued, the more hope he would have of surviving, and living well!

Sometimes, adults do have more experience than children, especially life experience. Everyone must have heard Tian Xing'er say that the ice had cracked and someone was trapped on it, so Su Qingluan saw someone carrying a very thick and long hemp rope and a door panel.

These villagers certainly don’t know what pressure is, but years of life experience will tell them how to be saved.

Obviously, these tools were not used, but some other people brought clean clothes, which was obviously what everyone needed.

A few experienced fishermen immediately understood what was going on. One of them pointed at Chen Jiabao, who was already weak from the cold, and said anxiously, "Take off this child's clothes quickly and change him into clean clothes!"

Su Qingluan quickly stopped the children present: "Girls, turn your backs and stand close together, forming a circle to block the wind!"

After the "sharing of hardships" just now, Su Qingluan's status in the hearts of these children has completely changed. What's more, everyone successfully rescued Chen Jiabao under Su Qingluan's command, so everyone trusts and obeys Su Qingluan very much. When she said this, everyone immediately did it.

Then I heard the fisherman say to another person, "Go to the side of the road and get some broken snow."

A confused villager asked, "What's the point of that?"

"You don't know," Su Qingluan said to another uncle who usually made a living by hunting, "This child fell into an ice hole. He needs to change into dry and warm clothes quickly, and then rub his limbs and ears with snow to warm them up, otherwise his hands, feet and ears will easily freeze off!"

Su Qingluan secretly felt relieved: she was indeed worried that improper handling of Chen Tianbao would cause secondary harm, but it was obvious that she was worrying too much this time.

Perhaps the simple villagers here do not know so much relevant knowledge, but their long-term fishing and hunting career has enabled them to learn the best way to save their lives from nature. When faced with such an emergency, their handling may not be worse than those who have received correct theoretical knowledge.

No, it is better to say that, as the saying goes, "Practice is the only criterion for testing truth." It is precisely because they rely on nature for survival that they can handle things more in accordance with nature.

Soon, the adults helped Chen Jiabao, who was already very weak from the cold and almost unconscious, to change his clothes. Others rubbed their hands and feet, some were busy rubbing their ears, and some were busy bringing back handfuls of snow. In short, there was another flurry of activity.

Seeing that the basic treatment was almost complete, Su Qingluan suggested, "It's not a good idea for everyone to just rub the child's hands and feet here. We should put him in a warmer place. It would be best if we could find a doctor to see what's going on."

Then she looked at Tian Xing'er again: "Didn't you say that Chen Jiabao is your aunt's child? Then have you informed your parents and your aunt's family?"

Tian Xing'er shook her head, and only then did she catch her breath after running all the way. "How could I care about so many things? We just entered the village and caught whoever we saw. I grabbed these five or six people from the roadside."

She felt a little embarrassed when she said this: "Just now, there was a big brother who had a beard. In my haste, I didn't pay attention and called him uncle, which made him sound old."

Su Qingluan laughed and immediately knew that this person was none other than the one who had just asked everyone to bring snow to rub Chen Jiabao's hands and feet.

Su Qingluan knew that this man made a living by fishing. He had a handsome appearance, but his hair was thick and "growing well", so if he didn't trim his beard for three to five days, there would be a circle of stubble on his face.

If he was even slightly careless, his face would immediately be covered with a beard, and the originally energetic young man would instantly look twenty years older!
