Chapter 245 Hurry up, hurry up
The second group of people on board were still mainly members of the rescue team, carrying Kang Kang and Bajiu. Since the two little ones were not light in weight and they had not been partners with their trainers for a long time, they faced increased difficulty in the rappelling process.
This also increased the difficulty of Rong Mei's requirements. Not only did she have to hover in the air for a longer time, but she also had to descend to a lower altitude from the ground.
So although this time the round trip took less time, the hovering and rappelling time took twice as long as the last time. Fortunately, it was also successful.
Return, the third time, the fourth time...a total of more than thirty people got off.
Qin Cheng has not boarded the plane yet, and like Qin Cheng, Da Sui is the one who stays behind.
Dasui currently weighs 160 kilograms. If one more person is added, the weight will exceed 300 kilograms. This weight is an extremely risky operation for the rescue team members who have little experience, and the same is true for Rong Mei.
If there is any improper operation, the plane will be destroyed and people will die.
But when it comes to search and rescue in the snow, Dasui is definitely the one with the strongest ability among the little ones.
So Da Sui must be brought up the mountain.
But if we walk up the mountain, it will take at least several hours, and by that time the elderly's physical strength will be almost exhausted, which will greatly reduce the efficiency of the search and rescue, and also miss the golden time for search and rescue.
It is impossible to rappel and there is no landing platform. The only way to get Dasui up the mountain by helicopter for search and rescue is to let the helicopter hover on one wheel.
However, single-wheel hovering requires extremely high technical skills from the pilot. The pilot needs to accurately control the lift generated by the rotor and the tail rotor to balance the torque generated by the main rotor blade, while coordinating the joystick and pedals to maintain the balance and stability of the helicopter. Any mistake in any link may cause the helicopter to lose control.
When hovering on a single wheel, the stability of the helicopter is relatively weak. Once there is an attitude deviation, it will be difficult to correct it. At the same time, because the height from the ground is too low, once an accident occurs, it is difficult for the pilot to take effective measures in time.
To be honest, Rong Mei had never undergone such difficult training. This was not an easy task for her and she was not completely sure about it.
If asked, her answer would only be "I'll try——"
In order to save Zhou Nanxu, she is not afraid of any difficulties or obstacles, because he is her husband, her lover, and the father of the child in her belly.
As for the soldiers in front of her and the remaining few search and rescue team members in the team, Rong Mei did not want to and dared not involve these innocent lives unless she was completely sure.
It is better to bury loyal bones on the plateau than to lose an inch of the motherland's land. A man should die on the frontier and be buried wrapped in a horsehide.
From the moment they entered the border, these soldiers were ready to dedicate themselves to the country and the people at any time.
But that doesn't mean they don't cherish life or fear death.
Some of them are only in their teens, a young and innocent age; some are new fathers... They all love life and have relatives who care about them; they are also flesh and blood.
Even if they have to sacrifice, they should sacrifice something more valuable, not on a helicopter...
So, this time, Rong Mei planned to take Dasui up the mountain alone.
The old trainer had already equipped it with equipment, and to prevent its feet from getting frostbitten, Rong Mei even had someone make custom shoes for it.
"Are you scared?" He squatted down, with a soft light in his eyes, and rubbed the little boy's big head.
Da Sui's drooping eyelids were as soft as if they were wrapped in honey. He rubbed his body against Rong Mei's arms, then gently placed his big head on Rong Mei's shoulder, his tail lightly sweeping across the snow, his eyes full of trust and attachment, as if silently answering, "Don't be afraid, as long as I'm with you..."
Rong Mei hugged Dasui, then stood up and tightened her grip on the leash. The man and the dog walked towards the helicopter with firm steps.
Qin Cheng took two steps forward and grabbed Rong Mei's shoulders. His knuckles turned white from the exertion, veins popped out on his forehead, and his eyes were bloodshot. "No, you're going to die if you take Da Sui with you!"
When Rong Mei turned around and looked at him, Qin Cheng's out-of-control emotions eased a little, "Sister-in-law, don't think about anything else, think about the baby in your belly. If Nan Xu knew, he wouldn't be even more reluctant for you to save him. He just wants you and the baby to be fine."
After saying that, he turned around and stood in front of Rong Mei, blocking her with both hands and firmly preventing her from getting on the plane. "I can't just watch you go. If you want to go today, you have to step over my dead body first."
Before Rong Mei could speak, Da Sui at the side suddenly let out a sharp bark at Qin Cheng, looking at Qin Cheng with a rare intimidation in his eyes, his ears pointed straight back like knife blades, and his wet nose twitched due to his rapid breathing.
Rong Mei reached out and touched Dasui's head, comforting him gently.
After being comforted, Da Sui immediately calmed down.
Tiny ice crystals condensed on Rong Mei's eyelashes, and her eyes were still fixed on Dasui. "As search and rescue dogs, they only bark when they find survivors. You see, Dasui is barking now, which means Nanxu is still here. Dasui is very experienced in search and rescue in the snow, and he is very good at it. I believe in him. I believe he can find Nanxu and complete the mission well."
Because she believed in it, believed that Da Sui would definitely be able to find Zhou Nanxu and complete the task, so, she also had to complete the task.
She also believed that Zhou Nanxu must still be waiting for her. She was so lucky. She had already died once, so she would not die. Even if she unfortunately died, it would be a gain. At least it allowed her to live here for a few more years.
But, she felt sorry for her elder brother and the unborn baby in her belly... It seemed that no matter what choice she made, she would owe everyone, so she should just follow her heart. Her heart made her want to have a gamble with God.
"I'll go with you!" Qin Cheng's Adam's apple rolled violently as he swallowed the bitterness. He reached out to wipe his face, and it was unclear whether it was blood or tears that slipped through his fingers. "Sister-in-law, take me with you. I'll take care of Da Sui. If this doesn't work, I'll smash the helicopter right now!"
My sister-in-law did so much, but still felt it was not enough.
As his best brother, could he just sit here and wait for his brother to come back with a clear conscience?
As soon as Qin Cheng finished speaking, Da Sui suddenly broke free from Rong Mei's hand, then bit the leash and walked to Qin Cheng, touching his hand with his mouth.
When Qin Cheng took the traction from Da Sui's mouth in a daze, Da Sui grabbed his trouser leg with his teeth and pulled it into the cabin, as if urging him, "Don't waste time, hurry up!"
