The rescue team officially set out, and the one leading the way was not the rubber boat where Lu Yunzheng was, but a rescue member who was more familiar with the location.
Although it was raining heavily overhead, the water was still calm and they were moving forward very quickly.
Luo Qianyun was rowing so fast, yet she was able to hold on to the handrails tightly to stabilize her body, and she really had no time to think about anything else.
But soon, they came to the countercurrent area.
The current in this section is quite fast, and it is more difficult to swim upstream.
But if they go through here, they can shorten the journey by half, which is why they choose to take the risk.
As they went upstream, Luo Qianyun saw their hard work, but they overwhelmed nature's expulsion of them at an absolute speed.
So in the end, they successfully passed through this section and reached the other side of victory.
"Finally I've passed the most difficult part. From now on I can pass it even if I just paddle." Lao Chen said with a sigh of relief.
Of course, they couldn't just sit there and slack off during the mission.
Swimming upstream just now was too exhausting, so Lu Yunzheng asked everyone to slow down a bit.
There was no more water in the rubber boat. Luo Qianyun thought for a while and took a cup to scoop out water.
But even so, she still held the handrail with one hand, for fear that she would fall out accidentally.
When Lu Yunzheng turned around, he saw Luo Qianyun scooping out water bit by bit like a hardworking little bee, and he couldn't help but smile, "Sit tight, we'll be there soon."
As soon as he heard his words, Luo Qianyun quickly grabbed the other handrail and said, "I'll hold on tight."
"If you're scared, you don't have to sit so far away. I can protect you if you sit closer." Lu Yunzheng said.
"No need. Sitting close will disturb you." Luo Qianyun said seriously.
Seeing Luo Qianyun's official attitude, Lu Yunzheng said nothing more.
When they arrived at the orphanage, they saw the director waving at them from a distance.
Luo Qianyun had just stepped onto the shore carrying the medical kit when it was in Lu Yunzheng's hands. "You can't even walk steadily, and you still want to get something? Come here."
Looking at the big hand stretched out in front of her, Luo Qianyun wanted to put her small hand there.
Unlike the warmth in Lu Yunzheng's palms, Luo Qianyun's hands were cool.
"You guys should bring some cold medicine, right? I'll make you a cup later." Lu Yunzheng held her slightly cold little hand and reminded her worriedly.
"I know, Army, you're so long-winded." Luo Qianyun said cautiously as he leaned against the shore.
Lu Yunzheng: "Now you think I'm too long-winded?"
"How dare I? I know you feel sorry for me." Luo Qianyun said with a smile, took the medical kit and waited beside him.
After the other medical staff came down, Lu Yunzheng took them to the orphanage first, while the others fixed the rubber boat.
The dean was a white-haired old man in his seventies. When he saw them, he rushed over with an umbrella...
But the wind was strong and the rain was heavy, and the old man's umbrella was almost blown away. Lu Yunzheng hurried forward to help the old man steady himself, and said, "Let's go in first."
As soon as she entered the orphanage, Luo Qianyun noticed several pairs of curious eyes secretly looking at her from a distance, and she immediately smiled and waved at them.
Lu Yunzheng was in charge of negotiating the rescue matters with the old dean. Luo Qianyun and the others did not waste any time. After taking off their raincoats and life jackets, they prepared to start working.
The nanny was a grandmother in her sixties who helped the old director take care of the children. At this time, she had already cleaned up a small space for Luo Qianyun and the others.
The four of them worked together immediately, and after completing the basic disinfection work, Luo Qianyun decided to understand the situation of the orphanage first.
"There are 18 orphans, including 6 boys and 12 girls. In addition to Director Geng and the nanny Granny Liu, the management also includes a 52-year-old handyman and a 38-year-old lame helper," said Lu Yunzheng.
"How do you know so clearly?" Luo Qianyun originally wanted to explain it simply, but she didn't expect Lu Yunzheng to explain it in such detail.
Lu Yunzheng: "I learned about the rescue information before coming here."
Luo Qianyun thought about it and realized that it was true. She couldn't just come here without knowing how many people she wanted to save, right?
Luo Qianyun immediately asked Dean Geng, saying that there was a sequence in the treatment process and she had to come one by one.
Luo Qianyun then followed Director Geng to a room on the second floor of the orphanage. Due to the power outage, the second floor did not have the emergency light on like the first floor, so it was pitch dark.
As soon as she entered the room, Luo Qianyun smelled a faint stench...
"I'm sorry, Dr. Luo. There has been no water and electricity these past two days, and the smell is not very pleasant." Dean Geng said apologetically.
"It's okay, Dean Geng. Did you just say that someone's leg was injured?" Luo Qianyun asked, shining a flashlight around him.
"Yes, it's just ahead..." Dean Geng said, and continued walking forward.
At this moment, Luo Qianyun's flashlight suddenly shone on the face of an adult male, which scared her.
Hearing Luo Qianyun's cry of surprise, Dean Geng hurriedly said: "Don't be afraid, Doctor Luo. Although Xiao Cheng looks a little fierce, he is a good child and is very helpful to our orphanage."
As Dean Geng spoke, the other party seemed to realize that someone was coming, and a weak voice came, "Dean..."
"Don't be afraid, Xiao Cheng. The doctor is here and will treat you right away." Dean Geng comforted him quickly.
Luo Qianyun came forward to inquire about his condition, and then saw his swollen broken leg, and immediately said: "It's too dark here to handle it. Let the rescue team carry him down first."
Hearing this, the man lying on the bed hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, doctor..."
I don’t know if it was Luo Qianyun’s illusion, but when she turned around, it seemed like something rough brushed against the back of her hand.
But she didn't care much, as she didn't know what she was getting into.
When leaving, Luo Qianyun couldn't help but ask: "Director, do all the children in the courtyard live here?"
"We have many children here, so two rooms are for them to live in," said Dean Geng.
When they walked out of the room, Luo Qianyun asked, "So Mr. Cheng has been living with the children? Wouldn't that be inconvenient?"
"I've taken that into consideration, so all the people living in this room are boys," Dean Geng said.
It is really difficult for Luo Qianyun to remind him that it is dangerous even for a boy to live in the same room with a strange adult male.
Never mind. I'll remind you tactfully when we get more familiar with each other.
After Luo Qianyun and the others went downstairs, she told the rescue team about the situation. Lu Yunzheng immediately brought people there and moved the man lying on the folding bed down with the bed.
At this time, Luo Qianyun had already prepared saline, tweezers, iodine and other items. When she saw them coming down, she put on gloves.
Next to him, Lu Yunzheng looked around and found a person. "Don't you have a handyman here?"
Upon hearing this, Dean Geng couldn't help but look a little ugly.
