Chapter 627: Missing a Corner (Revised)
After daybreak, Huo Jianying looked at the devastated city beneath her feet, her eyes welling up with tears. Everything was gone overnight.
At a glance, whether it was a bungalow or a building, all of them had collapsed.
The guard wiped away his tears and whispered, "If we don't take any precautions and the earthquake strikes in the middle of the night while everyone is fast asleep, how many people in this city will survive?"
The guard felt uncomfortable whenever he thought of that scene.
Huo Jianying turned and looked at him: "That's impossible. We have already helped most people through the biggest disaster. What we need to do now is rescue work. Even if we keep promoting and asking for help, some people will still secretly go back to sleep. We need an accurate list now to see where rescue is needed. It's urgent."
"Besides these, there is also food."
The leader of Tangcheng came over and said, "Everyone has brought out the food. The food can still sustain for a while."
When they were promoting the campaign, everyone brought out money and food from their homes because they had plenty of time.
"The worst thing right now is that there are ground fissures in some empty areas, and many people are in danger. The armed police and public security have already started rescue operations, but they are short of manpower and need to ask their superiors for support. But now all our communications are cut off."
Huo Jianying said: "Don't worry about support. I believe that support is on the way now. What we need to do is to save people as soon as possible."
The top leader nodded repeatedly upon hearing this.
They stood on the shattered city, looking at the scenes before them, and it felt like something was missing in their hearts.
The leader said with red eyes: "The newly built bridge has also collapsed. Everything is gone."
Huo Jianying was silent for a moment after hearing this: "Yes, we still have this land under our feet and our compatriots. As long as the land and people are there, we can start over."
"Yes, Chief Huo is right. Tangcheng is here, Tangcheng people are here, and everything is here."
His eyes became firm: "I will go and arrange various tasks now."
"Although everyone is in an empty area, many people are still injured. The situation is like this in the city, and I dare not even think about it in the communes."
Major hospitals in Beijing began to urgently mobilize medical personnel and medicines to major disaster-stricken areas. In addition to being busy with hospital work, the remaining medical personnel also had to go to the affected areas in Beijing to participate in rescue operations.
In addition to Beijing, such scenes are beginning to appear all over the country.
Five Star Brigade Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory:
After Ji Qing hung up the phone, he fell into deep thought.
The Tangcheng earthquake spread to the surrounding areas with Tangcheng as the center. The earthquake waves could be felt in many places in the northeast, Beijing, and Shu. This is enough to show how serious the earthquake was in Tangcheng and even in the surrounding areas.
His eyes fell on the packets of hemostatic powder and anti-inflammatory drugs on the table.
These are the two latest medicines produced by the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory. The prescription was obtained half a month ago. Wan Qing instructed that the two production lines should be run day and night for production.
At first he was a little confused as to why so much hemostatic powder and anti-inflammatory drugs were needed. Now after receiving the call, he understood where the drugs went.
But why did Wan Qing ask the Five Star Pharmaceutical Factory to produce so much hemostatic powder and anti-inflammatory drugs in advance?
Moreover, they are all improved versions of hemostatic powders, and their effects are better than previous ones.
This gave Ji Qing the illusion that Wan Qing knew there would be an earthquake, so she urgently produced this batch of medicine.
So, who paid for this batch of drugs?
He thought of Yu Wanqing again. Could it be that she paid for all these medicines herself?
Thinking that Tangcheng urgently needed these medicines, he did not dare to delay and went out immediately to tell everyone about the Tangcheng earthquake. The hemostatic powder and anti-inflammatory drugs were sent away immediately. At this moment, he was very glad that he had tried the drugs immediately after they were produced. Both drugs were very effective and they could be used now that they were sent.
When everyone learned that there was an earthquake in Tangcheng and the entire city might be destroyed, they were all shocked and some even had tears in their eyes.
Secretary Zhou said, "If you have extra food at home, hurry home and prepare it. It will be sent to the disaster area with this batch of medicine tonight."
"We will do our best to help our fellow citizens in Tangcheng overcome this difficult time."
With the Five-Star Pharmaceutical Factory, the members of the Five-Star Brigade lived a good life and had enough food at home.
After hearing what Secretary Zhou said, everyone rushed home to get food. It was now July, and the new grain had been collected. After paying the public grain tax, the grain had been distributed to them. Everyone knew how serious the earthquake was, and most people in the Five-Star Brigade were generous and took all they could.
That night, several vehicles set out from the Five-Star Brigade. Ji Qing personally transported the supplies to Guangdong and handed them over to the Guangdong officials, asking them to deliver the supplies to Tang City together.
When Ji Qing arrived, there were already many teams pulling food there, some even using ox carts with people walking underneath and the carts filled with cloth bags filled with food.
Seeing this scene, Ji Qing couldn't help but tears up in his eyes. Ever since he came to the countryside with the Five-Star Brigade, he seemed to be more easily touched by some things.
The driver said: "With the whole country united, our compatriots in Tangcheng and other disaster-stricken areas will definitely be able to overcome this difficult time."
Ji Qing nodded: "Yes, we are of one mind."
At this moment, Ji Qing felt that the unfair treatment he had suffered in the past was not so important anymore.
He thought that living a good life was the greatest punishment for those people.
If there wasn't a pharmaceutical factory to manage, he would have wanted to follow the disaster relief workers to Tang City to participate in the relief efforts.
Ji Qing saw Gao Qingmei at the registration office and learned that she had volunteered to help.
Gao Qingmei said: "Chengye has already taken Nian Nian to Beijing. I should also be able to take the children to reunite with him soon."
"We will be staying in Jing City from now on. I need you to tell the secretary at school."
Ji Qing nodded: "Okay, family reunion is the most important thing."
Gao Qingmei hummed and said, "Keep an eye on your wife. She's already pregnant, so stop jumping around and take good care of the baby."
Ji Qing thought of her hardworking mother who worked hard to earn money at home and sighed, "I also hope that she can rest and take care of the baby, but she likes to pretend to obey but secretly disobeys. She always takes advantage of me not being at home to continue her own work."
Aren't you watching?
He wanted to tie the man up with a rope, take him to the pharmaceutical factory office, and watch him 24 hours a day.
Gao Qingmei couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. She handed the registration information to Ji Qing: "Okay, the food and medicine for the Five-Star Brigade have been registered."
At the Beijing Military District Hospital, Guo Hongying went to the director's office with a sullen face. She asked in a stern voice, "Why don't you let me go to Tangcheng?"
Upon hearing this, the dean looked at Guo Hongying and said, "Comrade Chu Ming has already left for his mission. You need to stay."
The leader said that we cannot just grab a family and plunder them.
I hope situations like the Huo family’s will happen less frequently.
There are elderly people and children here. If something happens to both of them, I can’t imagine the consequences.
"There are also many disaster-stricken areas in Beijing, and Beijing needs you too."
Guo Hongying shook her head: "I want to go to Tangcheng. I have discussed this with my family and they agree."
The dean didn't expect that she would actually mention this to her family: "You must be fooling me."
Guo Hongying pointed to the phone and said, "If you don't believe me, you can call my parents-in-law or my grandfather."
"There's no need to joke about this. I know you picked someone to replace me. You should know that the worst-hit areas need me more this time. My speed in bandaging wounds and stitching them up is unmatched by anyone."
She had practiced all these skills day and night. It can be said that among all the hospitals in Beijing, there were few people who were faster than her.
"If it were normal times, I would never argue with you, but now in the disaster area, time is life, I can do things better and more perfectly, why don't you let me go to Tang City?"
"Comrade Chu Ming's mission is Comrade Chu Ming's business. How much does it have to do with me?"
Guo Hongying felt very angry when she thought about them crossing her name off the list, and said that she was not as polite as before. If Yu Wanqing and Zhang Hongqi were here, they would find that she was aggressive and unforgiving now, a bit like when they first met.
She said: "My family will take care of my children. I am not Comrade Chuan Ming's appendage. He has his own responsibilities and I have my own tasks."
"I am a medical worker. My mission is to save lives and heal the wounded. But now you are depriving me of my power."
The dean looked at the rapid-fire earthworks in front of him and sighed, "You have to understand that after a big earthquake, there will be many aftershocks. If you are not careful, you may lose your life."
Guo Hongying glanced at the dean and said, "I know."
"All the people who went to the disaster area to help with the rescue work knew that everyone was still determined to do it, and I was no exception."
"If this is really my fate, I accept it. At least I did what I thought I should do."
Wan Qing once said that at any time, as a Chinese, when faced with major issues or disasters, one must not stand idly by, but must be clear-headed and know what one should do.
Wan Qing also said: As a medical worker, it is our responsibility to save the dying and heal the wounded. As a Chinese medical worker, we will be there wherever we are needed.
She just followed her teacher's orders, followed her own heart, and made a decision that she thought was right!
She looked at the dean and said, "If you don't let me go, I will go by myself."
The dean did not rest last night and had a slight headache. After hearing what Guo Hongying said, he felt that his headache was even more painful.
He said, "Since your family has agreed, then go ahead."
After thinking about it, the dean still reminded: "Take good care of yourself when you are not working, otherwise I will not be able to explain to Comrade Chu Ming."
Guo Hongying smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."
As long as you don't object to me going to Tang City, I will agree no matter what you say.
Doing it or not is one thing, just agree to it first.
maritime:
At about 3:00 a.m. on the 28th, Yu Wanqing couldn't sleep and kept tossing and turning in bed. Huo Lanci took her into his arms and asked softly, "You're so anxious today. What happened?"
"Xiaowu, we are husband and wife. I hope you can think of me when you encounter problems."
Yu Wanqing whispered, "I always feel like something is going to happen."
It's not that I don't want to tell you, but when I want to say it, I can't make a sound.
Huo Lanci immediately thought of China. He was silent for a long time before he said, "We are far away overseas. Even if something really happens, we can't help you. Besides, you left a lot of things before you left. You have done what you should do. The rest depends on God's will."
Thinking about the series of arrangements my daughter-in-law made when she left the country, and the money she asked me to send back to the Five-Star Brigade, what else is there that I don't understand?
Man-made disasters would not make the daughter-in-law so fearful, the only thing left is natural disasters. If it is really a natural disaster, who can prevent it from happening?
I had guessed it from the series of arrangements she made before the mission, but I couldn't believe it. If it was true, how much loss would it cause.
He asked softly, "The money you asked me to send to Ji Qing, was it used to buy medicine?"
Yu Wanqing hummed: "Hemostatic powder and anti-inflammatory medicine."
It's a large sum of money, and I'm sure I need to buy a lot of medicine.
Huo Lanci was silent.
"Don't think too much. All we have to do now is to complete this mission and return home safely."
“Trust in the leaders’ arrangements.”
Yu Wanqing nodded. In the parallel world, when this happened, the second leader was no longer around and the first leader was in very poor health.
It's different now. Both leaders are in good health and have their own supplies. They have also made precautions in advance. The tragedy that happened in the parallel world will definitely not happen again.
As she was thinking, Yu Wanqing slowly fell asleep.
When Huo Lanci was drowsy, he felt like he was hugging a big stove. He was so scared that he woke up quickly. He touched his daughter-in-law's forehead and found that it was hot.
Huo Lanci quickly got up and called Yu Wanqing a few times, but no matter how he called, Yu Wanqing still didn't wake up.
He was so scared that he quickly went to find Yu Huan to come and check his daughter-in-law's pulse.
Yu Huan did not find anything abnormal in Yu Wanqing's pulse. He frowned slightly and said, "Her pulse is normal but she has a high fever. Did anything happen before she had a fever?"
Yu Huan took out the silver needle, thinking of helping Yu Wanqing reduce her fever first.
Finally, it was discovered that the usual methods for reducing fever had no effect on Yu Wanqing, and her high fever still persisted.
Yu Huan was also a little panicked. He had never encountered such a strange illness before. The fever did not go down at all after acupuncture.
Yu Wanqing had no idea what was going on, which was obviously very wrong.
At this moment, Yu Huan even thought of metaphysics: "This, this is not right."
Yu Jiazhi was sleeping next door. He woke up after hearing the noise and learned that his sister had a high fever. He looked at Yu Huan and asked, "You can't help my sister get rid of the fever?"
"We've tried every method we can think of, but none of them worked. Her pulse is normal, but her body feels hot as hell. This is all a bit mysterious, as if she's been possessed by an evil spirit." Yu Huan wanted to say, "This is simply a ghost. How could this happen?"
The Yu people are good at setting up and breaking formations, medical skills and ancient martial arts, but their ancestors did not tell them that the Yu people also need to learn metaphysics, and he really doesn't understand it at all.
Now that my friend is in this situation, he doesn’t know what to do next.
Yu Jiazhi asked in a low voice: "Is it really not caused by illness?"
"If it's really caused by illness, is there anything I can do?" After saying that, Yu Huan looked at Yu Jiazhi: "You don't think I can't do it, so you blame it on those mysterious things."
