rebirth of cataclysm

Wenxi County is not far away. Hu Mingchen and the others drove there in more than 20 minutes.

Due to the flooding of the urban area, Wenxi County, which had escaped the disaster, has now become the rear area for Weidong City's disaster relief. Many relief supplies will be transported to Wenxi County first and then transferred from Wenxi County to various front-line locations.

Even the diesel fuel used by Hu Mingchen and his rescue boats was transported from Wenxi County. At present, the main office offices of Weidong City have also been moved to Wenxi County, and many disaster victims are also resettled here.

As a result, Wenxi County, a small county town, has become extremely crowded and under great pressure from all aspects.

It stands to reason that since Hu Mingchen and the others are so close, they should not be unable to eat hot meals. Wenxi County should be able to provide and transport them there.

However, because there are too many people in Wenxi County to be resettled and the pressure from all parties is too great, their main efforts are used to greet the victims, and they cannot take care of Hu Mingchen and others to ensure their food and drinking water supply.

Being able to guarantee the supply of oil is considered very good.

Along the way, Hu Mingchen saw that almost all schools, all squares and roadside open spaces had become resettlement sites, and countless civil affairs tents had been erected.

Rescue vehicles were coming in and out, and ambulances were constantly whizzing by.

Two days ago, Wenxi County still had a power outage. Two power rescue teams came from neighboring provinces, and then the power supply to the county was gradually restored.

Hu Mingchen's minibus drove to the entrance of the hospital before being stopped.

"Public vehicles are not allowed to enter the hospital. It is very crowded inside now. What do you want?" A traffic policeman walked up to the driver's side to explain and asked.

"Comrade, we are from the 301 rescue team. One of the people we rescued was sent to the hospital. Let's take a look at him." Hu Mingchen stuck his head out and said.

"Are you from the rescue team?" The traffic police comrade was a little confused.

Because Hu Mingchen’s minibus did not have any markings on it.

"Yes, do you think we are lying?" Hu Mingchen tugged at his clothes and pointed at the others.

The traffic police comrades saw through the car window that Hu Mingchen and his group were indeed dressed in the same uniform, and all of them looked tired. The key was that their clothes showed that they had just emerged from the water not long ago.

"Although it belongs to the rescue team, there is really no place to park inside. We have to reserve the space for the vehicles transporting the injured. If you want to enter the hospital, you can, but the car must park on the road next to it." Comrade Traffic Police patiently said

The way.

What they said was very reasonable, so Hu Mingchen and others rescued the car, leaving one person behind to follow the traffic police comrade's instructions and drive the car to another road to park.

As soon as Hu Mingchen and the others walked to the door of the emergency room, they saw Shi Feifei interviewing someone. The person Hu Mingchen knew was an old man he rescued. Next to the old man, there was a woman crying. This woman was the child.

's mother.

Seeing this, Hu Mingchen walked up quickly, and the others quickly followed.

Sensing something strange, Shi Feifei looked back and saw that it was Hu Mingchen and the others, so she temporarily interrupted the interview.

"The child is gone? Is the child really gone?" Hu Mingchen put aside his previous suspicion and asked Shi Feifei solemnly.

Shi Feifei pursed her lips and nodded: "I'm leaving. I'm waiting for the funeral car to pick up the body."

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...My son! How can I live with you now that you are gone..." The child's mother cried very miserably.

The old man next to me also kept wiping tears.

Beside them, several people rescued by Hu Mingchen and others were also there. The girl supported the child's mother and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, don't cry, Xiaoqiang... Xiaoqiang is a sensible child, he

I don’t want you to be so sad..."

The girl tried to persuade her, but she herself started to cry.

Hu Mingchen walked to the child's mother with tears in his eyes. Under the eyes of everyone's comments, he bent his knees and knelt down.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I failed to save the child, I'm sorry for you..."

No one thought that Hu Mingchen would kneel down to the mother of his child, including Shi Feifei who was moved by it.

"Child, this is none of your business. Get up..." The fat woman next to her cried and tried to persuade Hu Mingchen.

"It's me, I'm sorry...I...I feel ashamed of you..." Hu Mingchen knelt on the ground and cried.

"Child, get up, we don't dare to blame you... You saved us, we don't blame you..." The old man Shi Feifei interviewed just now trembled and pulled Hu Mingchen, with sobs on his cheeks.

Tears flow freely.

"Yes, get up, child... No one wants this to happen. If you want to blame it, it's God's injustice... You are a benefactor, not a sinner..."

Another old man also reached out to pull Hu Mingchen.

But Hu Mingchen was a strong young man, how could two old men pull him up easily?

"I'm ashamed of my children, I'm ashamed of you...it's my incompetence..."

At this moment, facing the child's mother and relatives, Hu Mingchen indeed felt extremely guilty.

As the captain of the rescue team, I had already arrived with people, but I watched helplessly as everyone was washed away by the water, and one child happened to be missed without noticing.

Even though he tried his best, Hu Mingchen still couldn't forgive himself for this.

"Xiaoqiang, stop crying. Are you willing to watch your benefactor kneeling in front of you? They really tried their best... They saved all of us...

"Unable to mention Hu Mingchen, the old man slapped the child's mother on the knee and said in a scolding tone.

"My Xiaoqiang...wuwuwu...my heart aches..."

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Fang Guoping and the others were standing behind Hu Mingchen, and there was no water to pull Hu Mingchen.

They knew that Hu Mingchen was trying to atone for his sins and he felt guilty.

If he cannot get the forgiveness of his children's relatives, Hu Mingchen's sense of guilt may remain buried deep in his heart, and he will remain uneasy.

It is precisely because of this that Hu Mingchen knelt down to his child's mother.

"Brother...I...I'm sad, I don't blame you..." The child's mother hugged Hu Mingchen's head and said sadly, saying, the child's

Mother took advantage of the situation and knelt down: "You are not wrong, you... you have tried your best, I just can't bear to..."

At the entrance of the emergency room, everyone who saw this scene, whether they were local people or those who came to rescue from outside, shed tears.

"Get up, you all, get up. We still need to take care of the child's funeral, so what if we fall down crying?" The old man next to him began to persuade again.

"Comrade, please get up too. We have seen everything you did to save people, and we have recorded it truthfully. I really don't blame you. The water was too heavy at that time, and everyone was busy trying to save one after another."

Shi Feifei also squatted down to comfort Hu Mingchen.

"Yes, we Weidong people, thank you, you are our benefactors, the child's fate is so strange, no one dares to blame you." A woman said emotionally.

After everyone's consolation, Hu Mingchen stood up. Although the child's mother still couldn't stop crying, she didn't cry much anymore.

"Sister-in-law, your difficulties will be my difficulties in the future. Xiaoqiang is gone. If you are willing, I will be your son. No matter what you need, I will do it for you." Hu Mingchen wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said solemnly.

The mother of the child said.

"No, how can it be done? Then what have we become? Then are we still human beings? We are farmers, but we will not blackmail others, let alone disrespect our benefactors." As soon as Hu Mingchen finished speaking, the old man objected loudly.

.

"Yes, you came to save people, but you ended up being the sons of our local people. This... the outsiders didn't poke our spines and scold us. We don't understand those big principles, but we can't be ungrateful...

..." Another old man followed loudly.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I thank you... A good man lives a long life. I want to accept you as my son, but my whole family will lose their lives..." the child's mother said with tears in her eyes.

"That's right, you don't want money or your life, what do you want? You don't want anything. If Xiaoqiang's family is in trouble, we will help and we can't rely on you." The fat woman said.

"Xiaochen, everyone can understand your mood. If you want to do something, there will be opportunities later. Some things are really unnecessary." Fang Guoping finally spoke.

He also felt that it was inappropriate and inappropriate for that woman to recognize Hu Mingchen as her son.

Hu Mingchen nodded indifferently.

"Come on, let's go back. We still have rescue work to do. Since we are so sad, why not turn our grief into strength and do more things." Fang Guoping put his arm on Hu Mingchen's shoulder and continued.

"Yes, Hu Mingchen, if we go back early, we might be able to save a few more people." Hao Yang advised.

Hu Mingchen raised his hand and wiped his face: "Sister-in-law, fellow villagers, I'm sorry. I'm asking you to take care of the child's funeral. We... let's do what we should do at this moment."

"My child, you must take good care of yourself, keep your thoughts safe, and be sure to pay attention to safety. We thank you, and we Weidong people thank you." The old man warned emotionally.

"Yes, we will." After glancing at everyone, Hu Mingchen turned around and said, "Let's go, the flood will not recede, and we will not stop fighting."

Everyone made a way, and under their gazes, Hu Mingchen and his party left the hospital with their heads held high.

Shi Feifei stood on the steps and watched Hu Mingchen and the others disappear at the entrance of the hospital.

Before, she was angry with Hu Mingchen, but when Hu Mingchen said the words "human life is the most important", most of her anger disappeared.

Seeing this scene again today, Hu Mingchen's image in Shi Feifei's eyes became extremely tall. She was moved by this young man. This was the person and thing that touched her most deeply during her interviews in the disaster area.

She made up her mind to organize this material properly and report this rescue incident that profoundly reflects the spiritual value of the Chinese nation.

When they got on the minibus, Hu Mingchen whispered to Fang Guoping: "Brother Fang, please pay attention to me later. I want to know the situation of the child's family."

"This is no problem. If you want to help them with money, I can do it." Fang Guoping nodded.
