Chapter 103
Chapter 102 [End of text] Unfreezing land
Le Zhishi didn’t know what was wrong with him, so he walked over to participate in volunteer work.
Obviously he felt terrible even when he saw the disaster area in the movie.
The other party showed great surprise and gratitude for his appearance. When Lezhishi nodded and followed him, he suddenly realized that he was still holding Song Yu’s lunch in his hand.
“Wait for me, I will send you lunch and come to you soon.”
Obviously, Song Yu disagrees with him as a volunteer.
“You have not received professional emergency training. Once an aftershock occurs, you don’t know how to evacuate. It is very dangerous.” Song Yu frowned and paused for two seconds, “You stay in the car.”
Le Zhishi did not feel any emotions because of his refusal. He knew that Song Yu was worried about him.
“It’s okay.” He touched Song Yu’s arm. “I asked. The location is in the shelter for the victims. Many people, if aftershocks really happen, everyone will evacuate. They said, wait for the professional team. Come, we can replace it.”
He lowered his eyes, his voice was slow because of his mouth breathing, “I want to do something for them, just like you.”
“Aren’t you afraid?” Song Yu asked.
“I’m scared.” Lezhishi said honestly, “They can’t find anyone. I can obviously, why not go?”
After a few seconds of silence, he raised his eyes again and looked at Song Yu, “And as long as I’m with you, I won’t panic so much.”
Song Yu finally didn’t stop him.
When he hugged Lezhi with one arm, he gave him a calm, calm kiss.
“Be careful not to get hurt, okay?” Song Yu spoke to him in a very gentle requesting tone, “I’ll pick you up, okay?”
Le Zhishi nodded, “Okay, I heard that the satellite phone was delivered while I was having dinner, so you can call my mother.”
After he grew up, he used this name for the first time, which made Song Yu feel sad for no reason.
“it is good.”
This was also the first time Song Yu looked at the back of Le Zhishi leaving alone.
He finally has to really do what he wants to do.
Farewell to Song Yu. Lezhishi followed the older brother who had recruited volunteers in another direction. There were people coming and going, and many victims of the disaster, everyone squeezed in tents to eat, but most of them were not seriously injured.
“How is your foreign language level? Can you communicate with foreigners?”
Le Zhishi nodded, “Yes.”
“That’s good. Now there are four foreign tourists who are going to the snow-capped mountains on their own. As a result, all of them were injured when the earthquake came, and one of their legs was crushed. Our side is rather biased. Some people can speak English But it’s still difficult to communicate. Now it’s troublesome to register information.”
“I will try my best.”
“Are you studying law?” the eldest brother asked again.
“Yeah. But I’m just studying, and I’m actually a freshman.” Lezhi Shi was a little nervous, “Maybe I can’t help much.”
“It’s okay, we don’t want you to go to court now or something. You should calm down their emotions first, they are too anxious now, we don’t understand, they don’t believe our words. The professional lawyer rescue team is on the way, It might be here in the afternoon.”
“Okay.” While following him, Le Zhishi saw a victim whose back was injured on a stretcher. Suddenly, he felt a little tight in his chest and had trouble breathing. He didn’t dare to look any more, and he walked fast.
The four foreign tourists are all from Australia. When Lezhi arrived, two of them were arguing with a few volunteers, and neither of them seemed to understand each other’s meaning.
“Look, it’s really burnt.”
Le Zhishi was taken over and tried to communicate with them. He was good at English since he was a child, and he was fluent in spoken English. Hearing the familiar language, the other party immediately changed his expression and hurriedly asked Lezhishi for help.
“It’s okay, I will register your information first, and then we will contact your embassy as soon as possible…”
He spent more than an hour communicating with these foreign tourists to appease their emotions. The other party did not want him to leave. He hoped that Lezhishi could stay with them to help, but Lezhishi had to leave.
“I have to go to the legal counseling office to help. If you need any help, you can ask them to find me.”
The eldest brother also said: “The signal should be repaired in the afternoon, I will leave you a phone call.”
Lezhishi agreed.
The temporary legal advisory office is actually very rudimentary, with only a cloak and a table. Many people surrounded there, most of them were local refugees. They were speaking with strong accents, and the conflict seemed not small.
“If you don’t know this or that, what about my house?” A middle-aged woman, about fifty years old, lay on the table and cried, “I don’t have anything in my house…”
“I still have my insurance. How can I pay for it? No one cares about us now…”
At the moment there is only one volunteer in charge. She doesn’t understand this, so she can only repeat: “Calm down first, now the search and rescue work is still in progress, and someone will be responsible for everyone…”
“——When will you come? My very important things are in the homestay, and my notebook is all my most important business resources!”
“Me too, can I go back and get it now…Is there anyone behind these things?”
Le Zhishi was a little afraid to see such a scene, but he still tried to overcome his inner panic and walked towards the people who suffered in these disasters.
In fact, for a college student who has just studied law systematically, this kind of experience is almost completely blank. At the beginning, Lezhishi could only introduce them to the major he studied, trying to calm their emotions. At first they couldn’t accept it, thinking that Lezhi was too young, and this face looked more like the kind of person on TV and was not reliable.
However, Lezhishi patiently popularized the “Property Law” for them, telling them what rights they can claim with the real estate certificate, and what they need to prepare now…Every question provided by the disaster victims, he worked hard and accurately answered with a sincere attitude. Compared with the ambiguous response, the relatively professional answer gave these victims a little comfort, and everyone is willing to believe that they can really help, and they are willing to help.
When answering questions, Lezhishi will write down the information of the victims, the disaster situation and contact information of his home, so that the professional legal team can take over the work smoothly when they arrive.
Every once in a while, I will take some oxygen when I am Lezhi.
The middle-aged aunt who was crying before, also felt a little bit painful to him, “Young man, do you drink water?”
Lezhishi waved her hand and took off the oxygen mask, “It’s okay auntie, I’m a normal altitude sickness.” She must give Lezhishi the precious water in her hand, and finally Lezhishi only unscrewed her back. He fell for a sip and returned it to her immediately.
He said thank you, but the other party kept shaking his head, smiled at him honestly and thanked him.
She said thank you for helping us.
Lezhishi suddenly felt sore, he felt that he had done nothing, and even regretted not studying hard.
From noon to evening, they delivered instant noodles in the evening, but they couldn’t eat it at Lezhi. He ate some rice that he didn’t finish at noon, filled his stomach, and went to the foreign tourists to help and ran on both sides.
The volunteer brother finally brought new people, all very young college students, who came to support him from nearby cities.
“I’m learning a foreign language!”
“I study Fa, but I don’t do well hahaha.”
“I am a sports student, and I have strength.”
“Great.” Le Zhishi’s voice was very soft, and after two seconds, he repeated it again.
“That’s great.”
Because of the second heavy snowfall, the legal team was stuck on the road for a while, and arrived at 8 o’clock in the evening. They didn’t expect that there would be a very complete file that was sorted out, and they were very surprised.
“I don’t know if the advice given to them is correct,” Lezhishi was a little embarrassed. “I am still a student and have not really dealt with these matters, but these materials have written their basic situation and their The expected compensation should be helpful.”
“It’s very helpful.” The leading young volunteer lawyer patted him on the shoulder, “Thank you.”
Le Zhishi shook his head, looked at this young team, and thought to himself that he really has to work hard to become a lawyer.
In this way, they can provide legal consultation support on an obligation like them.
A temporary free clinic team came next door. There were some older doctors and many young girls.
Le Zhishi helped them carry the medicine by the way. When she met a sister who had a nurse’s certificate, she hesitated for a long time and couldn’t help but ask her how to treat the fracture. How to put the triangle scarf.
After studying for a long time, he stood by and watched her bandage the injured victims.
Originally, Le Zhishi was most afraid of seeing disaster scenes, especially when he saw the injured. His heart beat faster and faster, and he would have difficulty breathing. But thinking of Song Yu’s hand, he had many adverse reactions. After restraint, the heart rate gradually calmed down, and he worked hard to learn the nurse’s tricks.
“So, understand?”
The minority boy who was bandaged and could only hang his arms stood up, smiled honestly at the nurse, said a lot of thanks, and finally asked Lezhi who was standing aside studying: “Hey, have you learned? ?”
Le Zhishi smiled shyly, and whispered: “I don’t know…”
On this trip, he saw too many, mothers looking for children, collapsed houses, and victims crying because of displacement. These all evoked the deepest fear in Lezhishi’s heart, but there were more people, They were stronger and more optimistic than Le Zhishi imagined. They could even tease each other in the makeshift tent, and in turn comfort him so that he should not be afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Lezhishi couldn’t help but think that these people seemed to not be knocked down.
I really came to the scene in person and provided them with a little bit of assistance, as if they had the courage to face the disaster.
There seemed to be a voice in my heart saying, I am not afraid of you.
Although human beings are small, the cohesive strength is great.
With heavy steps, Le Zhishi, who was not well-rested, went to the place agreed with Song Yu after the shift. He stood there and waited for a few minutes. He heard a child crying, like a very small child.
After following the voice for a while, he finally found a child behind a concentrated tent, who was five or six years old, wearing a red cotton jacket.
“What’s the matter with you?” Le Zhishi knelt down and touched his face lightly with his hand.
He choked, crying to Lezhi when he called Mom and Dad to ask Mom and Dad.
Lezhishi’s heart suddenly tingled, and her abdomen was uncomfortable. But he hugged the child and touched his back, “It’s okay, tell me, have you seen your parents after the earthquake? What are their names?”
He picked up the child and learned from the few words he got between sobbing that he was separated from his mother on the street and he has not seen them now.
He was crying in his ears, and a wave of grief surged in his heart when Lezhishi, almost overwhelming his whole person, but there was a heavy life in his arms, and he was not fragile at all.
“I will show you to him.”
Song Yu hadn’t come yet, he asked a volunteer at the appointment to help him pass the message, and then he found the eldest brother who recruited volunteers today. He has a loudspeaker and has a relatively wider network of contacts.
But it’s really difficult to find people. It’s too cold and messy here. Everyone hides in the tent. Even if they are in the same concentration area, they may miss it. He was very thankful that he had arrived early in the morning, when there were not many people, Song Yu could find him.
After spending the whole night, Lezhi was exhausted, but when the child cried, he would hug him. For a moment, Le Zhishi even thought paralyzed, if he really couldn’t find it, he would really like to adopt this kid.
At least like myself, someone will take care of it.
But his idea did not come true, and fortunately it did not come true.
The kid’s father rushed to look for him after hearing the announcement. He seemed to have sprained his foot and walked very uncomfortably, but he seemed to forget that he was injured. He ran quickly and squatted down and hugged him tightly. child. Hearing him crying to his father sadly, Lezhishi finally couldn’t help turning around and crying with his back to them.
At this moment, he finally dared to think about his father.
The man who sounded perfect seemed to live only in the mouths of others. He didn’t understand or didn’t want to understand when Lezhi. He was silent every time he heard a story about him.
He has not enjoyed much parental love, and is afraid to miss it, because no matter how much he misses it, it is futile.
Don’t think about it at all.
In the movie theater, seeing the most impactful disaster scene, Le Zhishi felt that it was tolerable. Even the **** and cruel scenes, he would not leave.
What really made him unacceptable was the moment when the child and mother met in the movie.
At that time he thought with great pain, why can’t we meet?
Why didn’t you come back alive…
At this moment, seeing that the child lost in the earthquake can return to his father with his own help, I dare to truly imagine it when I am happy to know.
If he hadn’t died back then, would he have embraced the father who rushed back like this child?
Le Yi should also hug him tightly and say to him like the father in front of him: “It’s okay, Lele, Dad is back.”
Just when Lezhishi was standing in the cold wind holding a small plastic bead that the child gave him and watching them leave, Song Yu called his name and walked towards him.
Le Zhishi gave him a very faint smile and was embraced by him.
Afraid of bumping into Song Yu’s injured hand, Le Zhishi quickly backed away, “How are you today? Does your hand hurt?”
“It’s okay.” Song Yu put on him a down jacket hat, “I borrowed a satellite phone this afternoon and called my mom. She scolded me.”
As he said, Song Yu smiled, “I can only tell her that I don’t want this to happen either.”
“Did she scold me too?” Le Zhishi lowered his eyes.
“Well, she was mad at you.” Song Yu finished scaring, and hugged him again, “but she also said that you must be worried about her, so she didn’t dare to tell her. About grandma…you didn’t tell me either. ?”
“She won’t let me tell you.”
Family members just report the good and not the sorrows, thinking about it when they are happy to know.
But it’s also because of loving each other that I dare not say it.
Le Zhishi didn’t tell Song Yu about the kid just now, but he held Song Yu’s left hand tightly and returned to the measurement and control car with him. Although Le Zhishi was too tired to tell him about volunteer activities during the day, Song Yu gave him a hug and said to him over and over again: “You are grown up, you are great and brave.”
Although the intensity of the first earthquake was very high, the rescue command was very timely at that time, and the search and rescue were carried out continuously and efficiently. The casualties were much less than before.
On the next day, the resettlement area started to receive electricity, and the signal was partially restored. Lezhishi finally received the belated news from Song Yu.
Seeing those words, he seemed to see Song Yu’s flustered face before his eyes. He repeatedly chewed on Song Yu’s “I love you. Don’t come.” He tasted a bitter sweetness in his heart.
He plugged in the power bank and called Lin Rong with the worst signal in history. She scolded him intermittently, then listened to her sobbing and crying, and then constantly apologized and admitted her mistakes.
Lin Rong blamed him, “You are too courageous, aren’t you afraid of accidents on the road?”
Le Zhishi whispered, “As soon as I heard the news, I forgot to be afraid…”
“Oh, you all can’t go home for the New Year this year, can you?”
Le Zhishi was silent for a long time, and did not dare to answer.
Lin Rong couldn’t blame him either, and even said that she would rush to accompany them, and was dismissed by Lezhishi’s persuasion.
He also reported peace to all those who cared about him. Jiang Yufan was very hot-headed and wanted to come to help. Only when he was happy, he persuaded him.
But he didn’t want to go.
Lezhishi still wants to stay here and help more people.
By the fourth day, the resettlement area was getting better and better. With the mobile toilet, some children had gathered in the large tent of the resettlement area to receive psychological counseling, and a special psychological teacher came to attend the psychological class to adjust after the difficulties.
Sometimes Lezhishi is very tired, and she sits outside the tent and listens to them in class. Hearing the immature voices of those cute children, dragging the tail to answer questions in unison, there will be a feeling of hope.
Fortunately, the frequency of aftershocks has dropped, and the rest of the next few days everyone has passed through with anxiety and anxiety.
He became a volunteer in the information collection group for survivors. He ran around all corners of the snow-capped mountains, collected information, contacted news media and self-media on social networking sites, published their news, and reported to the survivors’ relatives and friends as much as possible. Safe.
They have been promulgated and forwarded by many people, and they have constantly met with relatives and reunited after disasters.
Lezhishi can already accept the loss of others and recover from the loss, and feel happy for it.
On New Year’s Eve, he collected information and walked through a place with a companion of ethnic minorities. Lezhishi paused and looked at it quietly for a while.
His companion told him to go, and only hurriedly followed when Lezhi.
Listening to Song Yu, their disaster map is now more and more complete and more accurate, which can help the command center to formulate a rescue plan. Lezhi feels very lucky.
The disaster situation has gradually stabilized, the intensity of search and rescue work has been decreasing, and medical resources have been sufficient to deal with it. After stabilizing, the school asked Professor He to take the students back, and they had to leave.
Lezhishi had the final say, it was like a panic dream for the past half a month. It didn’t feel terrible, but it would be sad.
Even reluctant to leave like this.
It snowed the day before leaving, and Le Zhishi took Song Yu’s hand and said that he would take him to a place.
Behind them, the snow-capped mountains shone dazzlingly under the warm winter sun, and the sky was blue, so blue as if no misfortune had ever happened before, so beautiful.
When the two of them walked and watched, Song Yu would look down at Le Zhishi from time to time.
“You are so tired, you have lost a lot.”
Le Zhishi raised his face and smiled at him, “No.”
Song Yu fell into a brief silence, as if he had made a difficult decision in his heart, frowning and asking him: “You will be scared, I will continue to do this kind of work.”
“Yes.” Lezhishi nodded honestly, then lowered his head, “Everyone is afraid. People are selfish. I also hope you do the most relaxed and stable work.”
“But when I saw the disaster map and model you made that day, I suddenly felt… really good.” Le Zhishi frowned and looked at Song Yu, “You really saved a lot of people.”
“There are also firefighters, doctors, nurses, and even some ordinary people who have come forward. They also have lovers. Their lovers and relatives are so selfless.”
Le Zhishi closed his empty eyes and smiled at Song Yu, “Compared with them, your work risk factor is not that high. So I have to try to learn to be less selfish.”
Song Yu took Le Zhishi’s hand, unable to speak because of emotion, and was led by Le Zhishi to a gate in the old city.
“Here.” Le Zhishi’s tone was a little triumphant, “It took me a long time to bring you here smoothly.”
This is a church, not as magnificent as Guangzhou last time, nor so exquisite. It stands quietly under the blue sky and snow-capped mountains, revealing a very simple and pure beauty.
Le Zhishi took out a small blue velvet box from his pocket, and it almost fell out. His nervousness made him a little funny. He finally caught the small box and placed it in the palm of his hand. The expression on his face was cramped and cute.
“This is the gift I customized for your birthday…” He thought he was a bit ridiculous. It was New Year’s Eve, and he hadn’t given out his birthday gift.
Song Yu was stunned, moving his gaze slowly from Lezhishi’s frostbitten fingers to the unfolded box. Inside were a pair of silver-colored rings. The styles were very simple, one large and one small, relying on each other.
“I searched for a long time before I found a custom shop and designed it with the craftsman.” Lezhishi said embarrassedly, “I also borrowed money from Aunt Rong, so I don’t have any deposits anymore. external debt.”
Song Yu couldn’t help touching his cheek, “I have lost all the inheritance left to me, right?”
Le Zhishi picked up a ring quickly, as if he was afraid he would not want it, “There is only this.”
He took Song Yu’s left hand and stood in front of the lucky church that had not collapsed due to the disaster, and asked Song Yu very softly, “Can I put it on for you?”
Song Yu also picked up the other one in the box, “Can I?”
Le Zhishi nodded his head several times quickly, stretched out his fingers, and obediently said thank you in advance.
When he put it on, Song Yu saw what was on the inner ring. He turned the ring and looked at the sun. It was a dark green jade the size of a twenty-cent diamond, embedded in a platinum ring.
“this is……”
“Tibetan jade.” Le Zhishi pursed his lips, “It’s quite suitable. We are very close to the place of production now, right?”
Song Yu smiled knowingly.
It turned out that he secretly set the jade he had given him inside.
“This is difficult to do. The craftsman tried it many times, so it was very slow.”
“Why are it embedded?” Song Yu asked.
“I want to hide my jade.” Lezhishi laughed, with a small hollow vortex at the corner of his mouth. Those beautiful eyes seemed to have never suffered any suffering, and they bent like a crescent moon.
“The ring exchange ceremony is over.” Song Yu cupped his cheek in one hand, “Can the two newcomers kiss?”
Le Zhishi stepped back embarrassedly, wanting to say that this was not a marriage, but Song Yu grabbed his waist first and kissed his soft lips under the beautiful church.
There is no white gauze, no suits and leather shoes, no flowers and carpets, and no blessings from anyone. The cold wind embraced their bodies, and the snow-capped mountains also came to witness their aftermath.
And their silent vows, short stays, and long-term promises.
Before the car on the return journey started, Professor He called Song Yu down to speak. Lezhishi sat in the car and looked down from the window glass. Song Yu’s hand hanging down, her ring finger shone with a beautiful silver light just like her own.
“Where is Song Yu?”
When he heard someone calling him, Le Zhi first turned his face and saw a senior man holding a mobile phone with a broken screen in his hand.
“Senior, he went to talk with Professor He.” Le Zhishi said softly.
“Really? Then I’ll give it to you.” The senior smiled and gave him the phone. “You see this is broken… We all freeze off, but he broke it. The guy who repaired the phone just gave it to him. I. Give it to Xiao Song later, I don’t know if he wants it.”
Le Zhishi nodded and looked down. The screen of the phone was indeed broken, but it was amazing that it could still be turned on.
Just now the senior sat in front, as if suddenly thinking of something, he turned to Lezhi and said, “Is your head a little cheese? The one in the cat and the mouse.”
Le Zhishi nodded, “Yeah.”
“No wonder, when I turned on the phone, the WeChat message exploded, and it seemed that it was sent by a person named’Murmansk’. It was you.” The senior said with a smile, “You are really worried.”
Another senior sister said, “Of course I’m worried, Xiaole and Xiao Song are the fairy love of our school. When do you see Bingshan Xiao Song whispering to others? Hug as soon as we meet, and yet She smiles very softly, she doesn’t look like him at all.” She sighed, “It seems that there is no iceberg man in the world. When you meet true love, you will definitely melt.”
Le Zhishi focused his attention on what the senior said, and muttered to himself in confusion, “Murmansk…”
He lowered his head, unlocked the phone, tapped his fingers on the broken screen, and saw his WeChat dialog box.
It is indeed this note.
He was familiar with these words, but he was a little confused.
Turning his face slightly, just to meet Song Yu’s gaze outside the car, he raised his head and gave Le Zhishi a gentle smile.
“Senior sister.” Lezhishi retracted his gaze, moved forward, and asked softly, “Murmansk is the name of the place, right?”
The senior sister turned her face, “Ah, yes, in Russia.”
“That is the only ice-free port in the Arctic Circle.”
——End of text——
The author has something to say: The main text is over, and there will be an extra episode later. Because the back pain has been continuing recently, and it seems that there is nothing to do every day, the following extra episode may temporarily adopt the mode of updating every other day, starting from the 9th. Sorry sorry.
The postscript has always been written outside the end, this time I want to write a little about the ending of the text.
Older readers may know that this book is actually a copy after writing the character in 18 years, and it is still hung in the chapter V of a certain (non-human?). It is almost two years since it is counted. But the fourth book in the middle was cut in the line, so I wrote it now. At first it was just a whim that I wanted to write about cuteness, but after a long time, when I picked up this article again, it was already at the end of May 2020.
I will spend half of my time in my hometown in 2020, which has a very, very big impact on me. My life mentality and writing style have changed a lot. So picking up this article again, in a blank outline, the first idea that came up in my mind was the scene of the ending: when a disaster happened, many people gave and sacrificed for it and moved forward with heavy burdens, and the dust settled. Those who love each other afterwards give each other a comforting hug.
It can be said that the tone of the whole article was set after I had the ending under such a disaster. Therefore, some readers said that this article seems very sweet, but in fact the tone is biased and depressing, it is like this.
Song Yu’s career has been questioned since he chose his major. Why should I learn this? Why not go to T University and so on. In fact, it was based on the ending in my mind. I always think that the reason why we can live steadily is because many of the things we have to do are done for us, protecting us in obscurity, which is very respectable, and it is impossible to measure their value with money and future. .
Including Lele’s pleasing personality, separation anxiety, and disaster ptsd, I actually feel it from reality, and it’s also a personal setting derived from this ending. He is no longer the simple and lovely setting I thought of two years ago. It was when Lezhi had the overall tone of the whole article two years later. I think this is a complicated character I want to write.
I am very fortunate to be able to stick to the original ending concept, which is not much different from my imagination at the time. There is even a feeling of going back to the original after walking through a circular track. When I saw Song Yu and Lezhi, who were standing at the starting point, running for others, the Arctic Circle and his only ice-free port.
In fact, my attitude towards this story is quite complicated. On the one hand, I hope you can feel the content you want to express. On the other hand, I hope you will never feel the same about it, don’t suffer from disasters, and don’t suffer from insufficient intimacy. And sad. So no matter what kind of voice, I think it is good, because people and people are also different.
Finally, I want to thank all the people who have been burdened with every natural and man-made disaster. Thank you very, very much. They also have lovers and relatives, but they have to stand up to protect more people. It is really great. After 2020, I realize how important many jobs that I have not paid attention to in the past, and how important the people who stick to these positions are. There is no way to be grateful, and I really hope that they can all get blessings.
As always, I would like to thank every reader who accompanied me through the serialization period and gave me encouragement and help. It was you who made this article fully displayed and allowed me to persist in writing what I wanted to write. Many people may think this is a polite remark, but in fact it is not. No matter how busy I am every day, I will check the comment area after nine o’clock, so that I will have the motivation to write the next chapter. I want to bow to everyone here, it’s harder to chase.
Goodbye, I’ll sprinkle more sugar.
