Chapter 623 Found it!!
Chapter 623 Found it!!
The mountain roads near this area are covered with thorns and weeds, and the lush vegetation makes it almost impossible to move forward!
The further up the mountain you go, the more clearly you can see that Grandpa Sun has opened up a path through his own efforts!
The wild weeds and messy branches that were originally growing wildly around had obviously been cut off by some extremely sharp tool!
After about ten minutes of hard work, we finally managed to climb over the steep and difficult mountain. And right before our eyes, the road ahead suddenly became open and clear!
Gu Chang subconsciously raised his head and looked around, and suddenly, he was surprised to find that there seemed to be a figure flickering faintly on the mountainside not far ahead!
His heart tightened, and he quickly shone the light in his hand in that direction. As expected, there was a person lying quietly between the cliffs on the mountainside.
"Look, there's someone over there!" Gu Chang couldn't contain his excitement and shouted at the top of his voice.
After hearing his shout, the others also looked into the distance in the direction indicated by the light.
Soon, they saw the old man, who was so thin that he looked like a bag of bones, leaning against the cliff in a half-lying position.
"It's Uncle Sun!"
The villagers nearby were the first to recognize the person sitting there and couldn't help but scream in surprise!
Before he finished speaking, several people rushed forward like a swarm of bees in the tide!
"Uncle Sun!"
"Wake up, Uncle Sun!"
"..."
Urgent calls echoed in the air, as if to wake up the whole world.
Several people gathered around Grandpa Sun, their faces filled with worry and anxiety.
Their eyes were fixed on the old man in front of them, afraid to miss any slight changes.
Gu Chang looked around quickly, his sharp eyes sweeping over Grandpa Sun's body like an eagle.
Soon, he noticed something unusual - Grandpa Sun's body was covered with shocking scratches, especially his calves, which were tightly wrapped in circles of cloth!
Seeing this, Gu Chang's heart trembled violently, and he secretly speculated: "This Grandpa Sun, it is very likely that he accidentally fell and injured his leg!"
Just then, a low groan suddenly was heard.
"Well......"
Amid the shouts of the crowd, Grandpa Sun, who had been unconscious, finally uttered a sound with difficulty and slowly opened his slightly cloudy and extremely weak eyes.
He raised his head with great effort, and glanced at the group of people standing in front of him with blurry vision. Then he spoke in an extremely weak and almost breathless tone: "Xiaosheng, why are you here..."
Hearing his grandfather's words, Sun Sheng was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes. He hurriedly took a step forward, tightly held Grandpa Sun's hand, and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Grandpa Sun, how do you feel? Is there anything wrong with your health?"
Grandpa Sun took a few deep breaths, as if trying to gather enough strength to answer Sun Sheng's question.
After a long while, he managed to squeeze out a few words: "Alas, I am old and useless! I was not careful when I was climbing the mountain, and I slipped and rolled down the hillside. Now I broke my left leg and can't move at all!"
After saying this, Grandpa Sun seemed to have used up his last bit of strength.
At this moment, the people standing nearby finally noticed that Grandpa Sun’s left calf was tightly wrapped with several layers of thick coarse cloth.
Looking closely, the coarse cloth was stained with some dark red blood, which was the blood that had seeped out.
"How long have you been falling?"
Gu Chang asked calmly.
Grandpa Sun's voice sounded very weak: "It should be around that afternoon... around three or four o'clock. I... I found some herbs nearby that can stop bleeding, applied them to the wound, and then gave myself... several injections, and finally the bleeding stopped..."
As he spoke, his breathing became more and more rapid.
"I originally thought I could just grit my teeth and keep walking down the mountain... but then I realized my body just wouldn't obey me and I couldn't move at all!"
Grandpa Sun sighed helplessly and said slowly, "At that time, I really thought that I might lose my life here; I never expected that you would come here!"
At this point, Grandpa Sun forced a smile of surviving a disaster on his face.
"Let's send Grandpa Sun down first!"
Wang Xianye shouted anxiously, his voice revealing a hint of anxiety and concern. He knew that time was running out and he couldn't delay any longer.
"Right, right, right. Erhu, go find some strong tree trunks so we can make a simple stretcher. Chunsheng, go make some strong straw ropes for later use..."
Sun Sheng arranged the tasks in an orderly manner. At the same time, he quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket and called other search teams to inform them of the situation: "Attention, all teams, we have found Grandpa Sun, and his location is..."
At this moment, the team members who had been searching for Grandpa Sun’s whereabouts finally felt relieved after hearing this good news!
Their long-stretched nerves finally relaxed. The teams closer to Sun Sheng couldn't wait to rush over here!
There were also some teams that were traveling in the opposite direction and were unable to make it to the scene, so they returned to Sunjia Village first and waited for support!
While everyone was preparing the stretcher, Gu Chang carefully walked to Grandpa Sun's side and carefully examined his injuries.
This was a startling look. Grandpa Sun's left leg was severely injured. The most optimistic estimate was that it was undoubtedly a fracture!
What is even more worrying is that the wound is so deep that the bone is visible. It is obviously caused by being pulled by sharp branches and hard rocks. It looks horrifying!
If he hadn't treated his wound in time and stopped the bleeding, he would have bled too much and his life would have been in danger!
It is not clear whether he has fractures in other parts of his body!
After just over ten minutes, with the tacit cooperation of several people, a simple and easy-to-make stretcher was quickly completed!
Then, everyone carefully moved Grandpa Sun onto the stretcher and started the journey back down the mountain.
"I'm so sorry to have caused you so much trouble!" Grandpa Sun said with a guilty look on his face.
"Please don't say that!" Sun Sheng hurriedly spoke to comfort him.
"Uh...my medicine..."
As he was about to leave, Grandpa Sun was still concerned about the herbs he had picked with so much effort!
Everyone present couldn't help but feel helpless and speechless!
Alas, this old man, even at this time, he is still thinking about these things!
Gu Chang quickly reached out and grabbed the worn bamboo basket beside him, and said with a reassuring smile: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you!"
After hearing this, Grandpa Sun, who was lying on the stretcher with a worried look on his face, finally calmed down.
He slowly closed his eyes, lay on the stretcher, and began to rest peacefully.
You know, ever since he unfortunately fell from the mountain, Grandpa Sun has been in an extremely difficult situation.
So far, he has not even had a drop of water to drink, and can only rely on chewing the bitter weeds around him to fill his stomach.
After such a long period of torture, he was already starving and his body had become extremely weak.
ps: I am too busy today and will not have time to write until the evening.
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone!!!
I wish all my friends good health, family reunion, and like Gu Chang, make a lot of money and become wealthy!
