Chapter 178 Emergency Rescue, Jin Wu Falls into the Snow Mountain and Disappears
The blizzard came with great force and ferocity.
The entire sky was covered with a thick layer of gloomy gray, and the biting cold wind kept whistling past my ears, making a roar like a wild beast.
The heavy snow attack was so dense and strong that it flew chaotically in the air, like a series of white whirlwinds.
Even if you wear a windbreaker that can protect you from the cold wind, the damp and cold wave can still penetrate the thick clothes and invade your skin. It is so cold that even the hot air you exhale can be instantly melted by the cold wind.
The blizzard, which had lasted nearly two hours, was only getting worse.
The visibility around becomes very low.
All you can see is a sea of white, which makes you feel helpless and desperate psychologically.
The snowy mountain terrain is complex and the road is slippery.
To prevent getting lost, the rescue team carried their own equipment on their backs, held trekking poles in their hands, and used their other hands to hold the ropes connected together. They climbed up carefully step by step, facing the biting and surging cold wind.
The snow was so heavy and the road was wet.
During this period, many people slipped and fell heavily to the snow, and some almost fell to the bottom of the valley.
He had only walked halfway when Jin Wu's trouser legs were already soaked and his knees were aching dully from falling several times just now.
But she still raised her eyes, which were a little red from the cold wind, and continued to grit her teeth and follow the team in front up the mountain.
The temperature in the snow-capped mountains is getting lower and lower.
The altitude sickness that comes at you can make your will collapse at any time. In order to cheer up, Wen Kelin supported her dizzy body and her voice was a little hoarse.
"Do you remember the oath you had to take as medical students?"
"Of course I remember."
"I volunteer to dedicate myself to the cause of human health, consciously uphold the dignity and sanctity of medicine, respect life, and save the dying and the wounded..."
From the moment the yellow blizzard warning takes effect.
Everyone rushed towards the direction where they could survive.
Only they were walking in opposite directions.
“Help.....Save us, we are here...!!!”
"Doctor, please come quickly, my husband has fainted, please help me see what happened to him!!!"
"Doctor, my legs hurt so much..."
I don't know how long I had been walking, but a faint cry for help finally sounded from not far away, as if the fire of life had finally lit up in this vast snow, giving people hope.
Everyone had experienced fighting side by side more than once. Without saying a word, they tacitly carried medical kits and ran towards the injured people to treat them as soon as possible.
“It’s so cold…”
A young woman was breathing oxygen with a painful expression. She was soaked and shivering from the cold.
Without thinking, Jin Wu took off his coat and covered her with it. "Don't be afraid, just hold on a little longer, we will be able to take you home soon."
"Thank you..." The woman looked at her with tears in her eyes.
Half of the climbers trapped in the snow-capped mountains have been successfully found. Except for a few slightly injured patients, the physical condition of the rest can still support them to walk back to the service center.
Led by the firefighters, the group continued to hold on to the ropes in their hands, facing the biting cold wind, and walked towards the foot of the mountain with difficulty.
Thick fog filled the air all around, and heavy snow continued to whistle in the face of the oncoming cold wave. The vision became increasingly blurred, and it was difficult to see the road ahead clearly.
".....ah!!!"
At this moment, someone in the team suddenly stepped on empty air and slid down instantly.
"careful! !!"
Jin Wu's eyes were startled.
Before anyone else could react, her hand unconsciously loosened the rope. Although she had little strength left, she still rushed forward like an arrow.
He blocked it with his body and used his remaining strength to push the man outwards.
Amidst the anxious exclamations of the crowd, he instantly lost his balance and fell down, sliding suddenly to the deeper valley bottom.
"Imagiri!!!"
Suddenly, there was a loud rumble of thunder in the distance.
“Boom—”
Yu Jiu, who had been praying silently with his hands clasped together, was startled for a moment and his face turned pale.
"Don't be afraid."
Duan Qinghe, who stood by her side the whole time, hugged her trembling shoulders tightly and comforted her gently.
The blizzard outside didn't seem to want to stop. The sky was dark and the wind was howling, as if it was going to swallow the whole world in endless white.
The man who had been standing at the door like a statue, motionless, seemed not to feel the cold.
He tightly grasped the sports bracelet in his hand, his sharp eyes staring at the opponent's movement speed, and his brows suddenly furrowed.
After Jin Wu left with the rescue team, Duan Shiyan would look at the data displayed above almost every five minutes.
Due to the bad weather, the snowy mountain surface was slippery and difficult to walk on, so she did not move very fast and sometimes even stopped.
Every time the positioning stopped, Duan Shiyan's heart would tighten.
Afraid she might have slipped?
Are you afraid that something might happen to her?
I'm afraid no one could have thought of it.
The prince of the Duan family, who has always been fearless and even looks down on ghosts and gods, would one day be frightened by this small red dot.
Duan Shiyan stared at the still motionless red dot on the bracelet, and his hand holding the bracelet trembled uncontrollably.
Something is wrong.
Even if there was a pause in the past, it would resume slow movement within ten minutes.
But it has been staying in a certain place motionless for the past twenty minutes, as if it was frozen.
Duan Shiyan enlarged the map scale to the maximum, but Jin Wu's location was still here.
His pupils shrank slightly, and a bad premonition suddenly burst out from the bottom of his heart.
It was like a sudden snowstorm hitting the earth, a biting coldness like the sharpest icicle suddenly piercing the heart.
Duan Shiyan's breathing suddenly became heavy, and his usually straight back suddenly bent downward.
This was the second time he had been confronted with fear.
The first time I felt fear was during a cultural performance in high school that year, when I found Imagiri unconscious backstage due to a high fever.
At that time, he didn't dare to think that if he had discovered it a minute later, her life would be in danger.
Duan Shiyan clenched the watch in his hand, his thin lips tightened into a straight line.
We can't wait any longer.
Be it suspicion or intuition.
He had to find her now and make sure she was safe.
Just as Duan Shiyan suppressed his trembling fingertips and turned to grab the mountaineering equipment.
The rescue team, which had been away for a long time, finally returned.
It was the same group of rescuers before they left, and it was still them when they came back.
But the only thing missing was a familiar cold figure.
Duan Shiyan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his heart, which was hanging in the air in his chest, seemed to fall down instantly.
"Why are there only a few of you?"
He clenched his fists and stared at several of his closest colleagues. The veins on the back of his hands bulged with uncontrollable rage. "Where's Imagiri?"
Duan Shiyan's eyes turned red, "Where is she?!"
The aura surging around the man suddenly became dangerous and difficult to control, like the loud cry of a wild beast that had lost its master.
Everyone present couldn't help but show expressions of worry and fear on their faces.
Wen Kelin wiped the tears from her face, "Xiao Wu...she fell from the snowy mountain while rescuing a patient, and she is still missing..."
What! ?
Lost contact! ?
Yu Jiu's whole body swayed and his eyes turned red instantly.
Xia Ying, who has always been carefree, couldn't help but turn pale, and the box of milk in her hand fell to the ground with a plop.
Xue Nan, Zhang Hu and the others' expressions suddenly changed, and they became panicked in an instant.
"Family member, please calm down first."
The rescue team leader stared warily at the silent but clearly uneasy man before him, carefully suppressing his threatening outburst. "I've already dispatched several team members to search the area, but... the situation may not be optimistic. Be prepared."
Sliding down from the middle of a snowy mountain is dangerous in itself.
Not to mention that Jin Wu didn't have any food or water, and the communication equipment could not be reached at all due to the weather. Even a coat that could withstand the cold wind was taken off and covered on the patient.
The only thing she had at the moment was a flashlight that was almost out of power.
I can't even guarantee that the flashlight didn't fall out of her body when she slipped down...
The blizzard is still falling.
The temperature has dropped much more than before.
All current circumstances point to an extremely pessimistic outcome.
I'm afraid Jin Wu is in great danger.
Just as the rescue team leader was formulating his words, Duan Shiyan had already turned around and grabbed the mountaineering equipment in his hands. Regardless of the blizzard that was still raging outside, he rushed out without hesitation.
"Sir, what are you doing?!"
The rescue team leader quickly reached out to stop him, "Calm down! You can see how strong the wind and snow are outside. You're alone and inexperienced. Do you know how dangerous it is to go into the snowy mountains like this..."
No matter how loving a couple is, they cannot disregard their own lives in the face of unknown danger!
"Danger?"
But Duan Shiyan didn't put his own life first.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he suddenly said sternly, "What's the danger? I only know that my wife is in danger now. She must be very scared to be trapped alone in a strange place. She is obviously afraid of the dark..."
"Like I said, she is responsible for protecting the world, and I am responsible for protecting her."
"Dead or alive, I'm going to take her home."
Duan Shiyan clenched the mountaineering equipment in his hand and glanced back at the crowd standing behind him. "Everyone here can testify for me. If anything goes wrong, I will bear the responsibility alone."
As soon as the words fell.
He turned around and stepped resolutely into the raging and terrifying snowstorm outside. His tall and straight figure was soon swallowed up by the biting wind and snow until he disappeared.
