Chapter 9 Rescuing
“Xiao Shun!” Yao Cen exclaimed subconsciously.
She wanted to stop him but could only grasp the wind behind him, watching him rush into the fire without hesitation.
Liu Yunxiang and Yao Jianguo gaped at the scene as well.
“Did… Did he jump into the fire to kill himself?” Yao Jianguo muttered.
Liu Yunxiang growled, “What a moron! He must be too angry after being scolded by us. Humph! I wish he die. Cen doesn’t need to go through the divorce process with him then.”
Yao Cen shed tears, feeling a sharp pang in her heart. ‘Xiao Shun, why are you so silly?’
Xiao Shun’s action also shocked others.
The rescue team members reminded them loudly, “All of you, leave here!”
“No! My daughter… My little girl is still in the car. Please help her!” a man with a tailored suit stood nearby the fire and burst into tears. He refused to leave the scene, although the rescue team was dragging him.
“Please help her! She’s so little.”
“Sir, please leave here ASAP.”
The rescue team member panicked. A man had rushed into the fire earlier. If this man did the same, there would be more death.
Suddenly, the onlookers exclaimed in unison, “Look! My gosh!”
“He’s out. How could it be possible?”
They all watched a man rush out of the fire with a mid-aged man in his arms.
It raised a mighty uproar on the scene.
The rescue team couldn’t do anything, but the young man with a plain look had successfully rescued the tank driver.
All the medical and rescue staff gaped at them without being able to move.
The young man was Xiao Shun. The tank driver had blacked out in his arms as he was burned to black with horrible wounds.
The flames didn’t burn Xiao Shun as if something had protected him from them.
He walked toward the medical staff like a deity.
“Oh my god…”
Yao Cen brought a hand to cover her mouth in disbelief, and her eyes lit up. She had thought Xiao Shun rushed into the fire to commit suicide, but much to her surprise, he rescued a man and succeeded.
“More than 70% of his body has systemic burns. He has been severely burned. His lower limbs are the most serious but should not be amputated. I have stabilized his injury. Please take him for surgery. Why are you still standing there motionlessly? He needs a rescue,” Xiao Shun growled.
As soon as he pulled the driver out of the fire, he kept infusing the vital energy into the driver’s body.
Therefore, the driver’s severe injury had been stabilized.
Only then did the medical staff return to their senses. They rushed up to take over the patient.
“Remember. No amputation. He can be saved.”
Upon hearing his reminders, the medical staff nodded vigorously. They pushed the patient into an ambulance.
After checking him up, they found Xiao Shun’s words were accurate.
Although the driver had been burned severely, he was lively, and all the injuries were on his skin and flesh. It seemed he had the energy to keep well, so he didn’t need amputation if he had been rescued on time.
“What a miracle! Hurry! He needs the rescue. Drive!” a doctor prompted.
The ambulance roared away with the tank driver.
Xiao Shun breathed a sigh of relief. He didn’t need to take care of anything else. Before he was about to turn away, the crying man seemed to see the lifesaving straw and pounced at him.
“Hero! Please don’t go. My daughter is still in the fire. Please save her!”
The man was in a luxurious, tailored suit, but he couldn’t help shedding tears, almost breaking down.
The rescue team didn’t stop him anymore. They also wished to see if the young man would create another miracle.
“I see. Let go of me,” Xiao Shun responded and closed his eyes.
The man immediately released him, looking at him expectantly.
Xiao Shun sensed the whole fire and searched quickly.
Finally, he found a little girl in a Bentley in the innermost place of the fire. She had fainted without the vital sign.
Xiao Shun sensed again and found she was still savable.
He snapped open his eyes and ordered the rescue team, “Please take the water cannons and follow me.” He ran toward the targeted place, followed by several rescue staff.
After they arrived at the boundary, Xiao Shun saw a black Bentley on fire. In the passenger’s seat, a little girl had fainted. The rescue team aimed the water cannons at the car, but it didn’t help much.
The girl would be gone if waiting for the fire to be put out.
While the onlookers were anxious, Xiao Shun rushed in again while protected by the layer of his vital energy. The flames enveloped him but couldn’t hurt him. He ran so fast that the fire even made way for his aura.
The rescue staff followed him, watching the scene solemnly.
Through the broken window glass, they could see the girl’s legs stuck in the deformed steel frame, which must have been caused by the car accident due to the explosion.
“What should we do? It might be too late.”
“Hurry! Tools!”
“No! I cannot cut it.”
The rescue staff circled in a panic but couldn’t figure out what to do. Time was valuable at this moment. The fire hadn’t been completely put out, so there might be other explosions soon.
Xiao Shun said, “Move. Let me try.”
If they hadn’t followed him in and pushed him away earlier, he would have rescued the girl long ago.
The rescue staff made their way. Xiao Shun strode over, grabbed the burning steel frame, and broke it with his hands forcibly.
Others sucked in their breath, gaping at him.
However, Xiao Shun looked calm, as if nothing had happened. Carrying the girl in his arms, he said to others, “Follow me. Let’s go.”
The rescue staff felt like they had also been rescued by them.
After rushing out of the fire by following Xiao Shun, they felt they had an illusion earlier.
The young man broke the burning steel frame with his hands, and they wondered if he was ordinary.
“Please rescue her. Hurry!”
Xiao Shun passed the little girl to the medical staff. He sat down cross-legged to recover his vital energy. He had rushed into the fire twice, so his vital energy had been used extensively.
The medical staff hurriedly rescued the girl, and her father thanked Xiao Shun quickly before waiting outside the ambulance.
His arms were burned, but he seemed not to feel the pain, only concentrating on his daughter.
The girl had fainted, so the medical staff used AED to give the girl CPR.
As time went by, sweat oozed on the doctor’s forehead. After another failure, he heaved a sigh helplessly.
“We’ve tried out best, Sir. But she has inhaled too much burning gas, and her lungs have been burned.”
“What?”
The man collapsed instantly outside the ambulance. Finally, his little girl had been rescued, but he was told she couldn’t be saved. What torture!
“Sir, we cannot do anything. Sorry for your loss…”
The doctor got off the ambulance, shaking his head. “Let me deal with the wounds on your arms. It’ll worsen soon.”
“No! I don’t believe it!”
The man hoarsely yelled, “I’m rich. I have a lot of money. My daughter’s life can be saved.”
He took out his wallet and pulled out a black card as he spoke.
The black card’s owners were either wealthy or influential. People could tell he must be someone well-known in Hamana.
“It’s not the matter about money, Sir. We cannot do anything about it,” the doctor repeated helplessly.
The man huddled on the ground, weeping like a child. His voice ached with sorrow. He couldn’t believe his little girl had died.
Right then, Xiao Shun exhaled and said, “I can save her. Please let your doctors and nurses go away. Let me try.”
Then he stood up and strode toward the ambulance. The medical staff left him a space.
After witnessing the earlier scenes, everyone trusted Xiao Shun for some reason, as if a miracle could always happen in his presence.
Under others’ gazes, Xiao Shun pulled out a Phoebe box that he took along all the time. There were 24 needles in different sizes lying neatly inside.
More than half of his vital energy had recovered, so he could rescue the girl.
Xiao shun took a deep breath, picked up a needle, and inserted it into the acupoint of Shangxing.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
He inserted the silver needles decisively, one after another. This treatment was named Ghost Door Thirteen Needles, which could rescue a dying person effectively.
His skills amazed all the onlookers.
