Chapter 144

As long as people can be saved, everything else is fine. Qiao Sheng asked Pei Hong about the location of their boat and learned that it was parked on the shore about ten minutes' walk outside the ruins. He

immediately discussed with Li Mu, Chu Wanyou and Wen Yizhou to move the boat to the shore where Pei Hong's fleet was docked. It was time-consuming and laborious for them to go back and forth now. It was far away. There were only Grandma Chu and Ji Ya with a child there, and it didn't seem safe.

Considering that the rescue work in the ruins was also very heavy, Li Mu was finally asked to go back. At that time, the three boats would be tied together, and the driving equipment would be turned on to move around the island.

Qiao Sheng was worried about him going back alone, so he finally took Ah Dai back with him. This guy has a strong fighting ability and is really dangerous. Even if he can't beat him, he can still come back to report.

The rain showed no sign of stopping. The heavy rain and the muddy ground on the island made the rescue team members all covered in mud. But everyone had no intention of resting and they were all working hard to move the bricks in the ruins.

Yousu walked around lightly in the ruins. If he found a living survivor, he would stop, and the team members following behind would check the small flags to record.

Qiao Sheng was not idle either. When Li Mu went back to move the boat, she went to the ruins. Because she was light, she, Fang Yueyi, and Chu Wanyou went to more dangerous places. It was not that the male team members were shirking their responsibilities. It was because the places where they stood would collapse if someone heavier stood on them.

In order to ensure the safety of the three of them, Pei Hong also specially arranged several team members to stand in a safe place, tied them with ropes, and immediately pulled them back when they saw the possibility of collapse. It was okay even if they were hit. As long as they were pulled back and alive, they could be cured with medicine.

The male team member assigned to Qiao Sheng was still quite calm. Fang Yueyi was also personally brought up by her boyfriend Xu Ziyan. As Chu Wanyou's partner, she was really startled. Several times, he almost caused problems when she was fine.

Just when Qiao Sheng was holding Chu Wanyou, who was almost dragged down while carrying rocks, for the Nth time, Ah Dai flapped his wings and flew to her side, proudly holding his head high, looking for praise. Li Mu followed behind him and walked towards this side at a leisurely pace.

Qiao Sheng first touched Ah Dai's head, and then gave it the last bit of meat in his wrist bag. This guy likes cleanliness as much as You Su. Food and snacks are either placed in the food bowl or in his mouth. The only fool who put them on the ground was the cassock cub who picked them up and ate them.

With them like this, Qiao Sheng really wanted to ask how they survived in the wild before, and why they were so picky when they were around her.

They drove away Ah Dai squatting nearby, and let him and You Su continue to search for survivors. They said something to the male team member who was holding Chu Wanyou, and let him take over the rope and do other things first. Of course, the reason could not be to say that the other party was bad, but that Li Mu had just returned from moving the boat, so they let him pull it

. They handed Chu Wanyou's rope to him, and the three of them stood on the ruins again and started moving stones. This time it was much more normal. Only once did Qiao Sheng accidentally step on the air and was pulled back. When she was supported, she found that the person who tied her up had been replaced by Li Mu at some point, and the previous stable team member was staring at Chu Wanyou.

There was no time to chat, so they returned to the ruins again. Half an hour later, they finally exposed a large stone slab in the place they had been cleaning. This was something that the three of them could not move. They called other team members over, and seven or eight people worked together to lift the stone slab.

Previously, Qiao Sheng and his team had cleaned the stone slab and the small stones nearby. The most unsafe thing here was this large stone slab, because it was suspended, so there was a possibility of a second collapse at any time. Now that it was cleaned up here, the team members who came to move the stone slab did not have to step on it, which was much safer.

But a serious problem arose. The stone slab was too big and too heavy, and seven or eight strong guys could not lift it. And the female survivor below, I don’t know what happened, she kept groaning, and she didn’t say anything when asked, just screaming in pain.

This made the people above very anxious. A dozen people stood here and discussed for a while before coming up with the final plan - breaking the stone, padding the suspended space underground, and then seven or eight guys above were ready at any time, and if there was a second collapse when breaking the stone, they would go to collect the broken stone.

They couldn't move a whole stone, but they were sure that they could move half of the broken stone. However, Qiao Sheng still took off his cotton vest, lay on the edge of the stone slab and passed it in, so that the woman inside could cover her head.

When breaking the stone, there must be dust flying everywhere. I was injured and didn't know where it hurt. If I was hit by the broken stone, I didn't know how I would scream. At this time, the most fearful thing was to waste energy.

After everything was settled, Xu Ziyan, who had the most strength, took a stone hammer and hammered the stone slab again and again. The woman underneath did not react except to keep crying out in pain.

Soon the stone slab was broken into dozens of small pieces, which were easily moved away. The woman who had been pressed under the stone slab was finally exposed.

"Ouch, it's a pregnant woman. Move slowly. Is she about to give birth?" Everyone looked at the woman's round belly and the rusty red mud on the inside of her legs. No one reacted. It was Fang Yueyi's shout that woke everyone up.

Several guys carried the pregnant woman back to the shelter just like they were carrying fragile items. Qiao Sheng and the other three, as the only three women at the scene, were also pushed into the shelter. Looking at the pregnant woman lying on the wooden board and groaning in pain, they were completely at a loss. The only people

rescued from the shelter were old men and children, and there was only one old lady who was still in a coma. There was really no one around to help.

Qiao Sheng had no idea what to do with her two hands. Or maybe Chu Wanyou usually spent a lot of time with the pregnant woman Ji Ya, and Grandma Chu would always talk about things about pre- and postpartum care. Even if she didn't pay attention, she would still listen to it.

She asked Qiao Sheng and the others to wait for a while, and went out to ask the team members guarding outside to boil some hot water, the more the better, and also asked if there were any things like scissors or alcohol.

Grandma Chu said that the umbilical cord had to be cut. With their current abilities, they couldn't make alcohol, so Grandma started trying to brew strong liquor in order to wait for Ji Ya to give birth before cutting the umbilical cord.

After that, she returned to the shelter and told Qiao Sheng and the others about this matter.

"We three are unmarried and have never had children. We don't even have any medical knowledge. If we deliver babies here, we're just kidding about the lives of the women in labor! With Grandma Chu and Ji Ya, why should we be busy here? Let's get back to the boat and disturb others!" Qiao Sheng realized that he, who only relied on watching TV dramas to master the common sense of pregnancy and childbirth, really couldn't be qualified for the job of a midwife.

Let Fang Yueyi guard here, Qiao Sheng pulled Chu Wanyou up and prepared to rush out, just in time to pretend to be full of people walking in.

"What are you doing in here? This shelter has now become a delivery room, men are not allowed in." Rubbing his head that hurt from the collision, he looked up and saw Li Mu, and quickly reminded him.

"I've brought Grandma Chu here. You three definitely can't handle the delivery, so we have to find someone with experience. Ji Ya wanted to come, but I persuaded her not to. Her belly is too big, and I was afraid something might happen if she comes. I just asked Ah Dai to fly over to watch over her. I'll take over Wen Yizhou's job later, so let him go back to keep her company. The pregnant woman and the child over there can't be short of people." Thanks to Li Mu, he saw the person rushing out like a small cannonball, because Grandma Chu was following behind him. He didn't move and caught Qiao Sheng with his chest.

Although he wanted to act as if nothing had happened, he couldn't help but rub his chest because of the pain in his chest.

"Great, it's really Teacher Li who can think ahead of us." Qiao Sheng was now trained by Ah Dai and the others, and all kinds of complimenting words came to his hand.

Seeing him rubbing his chest, he was also concerned about whether he had hurt it.

Chu Wanyou felt a headache when she saw Grandma Chu running behind them, panting. Her grandmother was really kind-hearted. She didn't even look at her age and dared to jog all the way here. However, this matter involved lives, and she couldn't say that about her grandmother standing at the door of the shelter.

After helping the old lady to sit down next to the pregnant woman, Chu Wanyou went to get some warm water and asked Grandma Chu to drink a few sips to slow down her breathing.

Li Mu greeted them and went back to the ruins to replace Wen Yizhou to continue working.

With Grandma Chu, it was like having a backbone. The team members outside were already knocking at the door with hot water. The young man was shy and knew that a birth was going on inside, so he didn't dare to rush in directly. He could only call Qiao Sheng and the others to get water. He

also told them that they were slow because he went through the ruins to ask the team members for fresh water. Originally, he wanted to rush to the beach to get seawater for boiling, but was stopped by Wen Yizhou, who told him that he had to get clean water. The boiled seawater was not clean and could not be used for delivery, which made the young man very worried.

After much difficulty, he managed to collect a basin of water from everyone, and brought it over after it was boiled. He also told them not to worry, and that the water at the back could be connected. Li Mu had just brought him a lot of water, and he would go to boil water in a while. It was right at the door, and if they needed it, they could just call him.

Unfortunately, neither the scissors nor the alcohol were found. The young man scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed for not completing the task.

Grandma Chu heard it from inside, and told the young man loudly that she had brought the scissors, and that it was okay without the alcohol, and that he could burn them with fire later, or disinfect them at high temperature.

Finally catching her breath, Grandma Chu started to work. She first took a cotton sheet and completely covered the lower body of the pregnant woman. Then she touched her belly for a while, washed her hands, took a cotton cloth dipped in hot water, and put it into the cotton sheet to start cleaning.

During this time, she asked Chu Wanyou to wash the cloth with mud and blood several times, which made her hands red. Only then did she wipe the legs of the pregnant woman clean. Then she put her hands in and operated for a while.

Holding the clean cotton cloth brought by Chu Wanyou, Grandma Chu wiped her hands, walked to the head of the pregnant woman, and told her that the fetus was safe and alive, and she was also great, but she had to endure for a while, because it was not time to give birth yet.

The pregnant woman, who was originally in despair, suddenly stopped struggling after hearing Grandma Chu's words. She looked like she had just been pulled out of the water. She raised her eyelids and looked at the old woman who gave her hope with a slightly pleading look. She finally murmured something other than crying out in pain: "Is the child really okay? Is he still alive? Please, save me and this child."

"Old sister, please help and save the mother and daughter. A hemp rope is cut by the smallest detail. Qingwan has had a very hard time this year. The baby in her belly is a posthumous baby. Her husband went fishing a few months ago to save other villagers and was killed by a shark. Not even a complete body was left. If it weren't for the baby in her belly, she would definitely not have survived until now." The eldest master, who was lying farthest away, heard what they said, sighed, wiped his tears, and told the pregnant woman about her condition.
