Chapter 674: The Great Men Of Sichuan Will Not Be Defeated Unless You Don’t Let Them Play Mahjong
Mu Tao took a plane from the other side of the ocean. Instead of returning to Pengcheng City, he flew directly to Shenzhen City.
Wu Haishi found the principal of the military medical university through an old relationship and forced Mu Tao into the medical team.
The principal was also in a difficult position.
The school sent people to the disaster area the first moment they had. The news came that they had successfully entered the epicenter of the earthquake and were the first batch of rescue workers to arrive.
This news made the teachers and students who had not gone to the disaster area excited. They could not even suppress their emotions. They did not know who those little brats had learned to write blood letters from.
They sent blood letters one after another. If it were not for the deterrence of military discipline, the principal was really afraid that these brats would rush to the disaster area in groups of three or five.
However, he had a sudden inspiration and started a medical competition. Only the winners of the emergency treatment could go to the frontline.
All of a sudden, bad things became good things.
The group of young brats was screaming. They could not blame themselves for not being good enough, but they could not blame anyone else either.
It could be imagined that in the next few years, the atmosphere of learning would suddenly improve.
However, every rescue team’s quota was full. There had to be someone to leave…
The principal pulled out his hair one by one.
It was not because of anything else, but because many of the people who had voluntarily entered the disaster area to provide relief were exhausted. They had run out of ammunition and food before they even reached their positions.
In the end, not only were they unable to do anything, they had also become a burden.
Was this considered to be causing trouble for the people in the disaster area… The frontline headquarters had already ordered martial law, and all the troops that had entered had to be reported and approved.
The list of names had already been decided so what should they do?
Wu Haishi and Elder Wu had to give him face, but this time, they had really done him a big favor by sending people in.
After going through several twists and turns, Mu Tao rushed to the mountain city and finally caught up with the fifth group of troops that went to the frontline.
The teachers and students of the military medical university did not have any hostility toward Mu Tao. They only felt that he was gentle and refined, like a small…old sheep that had blended into a pack of wolves.
Mu Tao did not find it strange. He made use of the time to get rid of the jetlag and conserve his energy.
This time, he was heading to Pengxi Village.
There was interventional surgery equipment, and the ones closest to the front line were there.
The principal had done a solid favor for him. After all, Wu Haishi had firmly brushed his face but they could not fool him. In this day and age, no one was a fool.
They had been running all the way and even in the periphery, the scene they saw was still shocking.
Mu Tao was originally silent but at this moment, his mood became even heavier.
Groups of troops passed by. He saw soldiers of the People’s Liberation Army from all over the country, as well as fire officers and soldiers. The figures of the various elite troops, together with the ambulances with different license plates, whistled as they carried the injured to Chengdu.
The rescue work was carried out in an orderly manner. The mountain of strategic supplies at Chengdu Airport made people feel at ease.
Mu Tao first went to the frontline command center, then took a helicopter and rushed to Pengxi Village.
After getting on the helicopter, Mu Tao was ready to understand the situation and chatted with the helicopter’s pilot.
When he found out that many rescue helicopters had fallen to their doom, Mu Tao became more and more silent.
That kind of weather was not suitable for helicopters to be deployed.
However, if people and helicopters could not get in, what would happen to the survivors waiting for rescue?
To ensure their survival, the country had already spared no expense.
All the news was shocking, but the helicopter pilot was very calm. Seeing that Mu Tao had become silent, he smiled and said, “On the first day when I learned of the earthquake, I flew over. Until now, I haven’t fallen. I can be considered lucky.”
“Okay.”
“Guess what I saw?”
“Hmm? What did you see?”
“Many taxis and private cars crowded outside the city. They were not avoiding the earthquake but instead, driving straight to the disaster area to save people,” the helicopter pilot said with a smile. “The traffic was so heavy. Later, the frontline headquarters gave the order and the traffic problem was solved.”
“…”
“All of them went home to see their wives and children. They took some things from the supermarket and went on the road. Some of them didn’t bring anything and went straight to go and rescue people.”
Mu Tao looked at the scene outside the window. The heavy machinery had already entered the disaster area and was opening up the road day and night.
Under the Barrier Lake, the heavy equipment was digging against the 10,000 tons of lake water.
“The next day, I flew a helicopter over Chengdu. Guess what I saw the most?” The pilot smiled.
“It was the citizens who were avoiding the earthquake.” This question was easy to guess. There was no need to think about it.
“It was a group of people playing mahjong.” The pilot laughed and continued, “They were not allowed to go out of the city for a rescue mission. If they went east, no one would care. If they went west, they would not be able to. If they were bored, they would play mahjong. I could even hear the loud noises from the helicopter.”
Mu Tao did not know why, but his heart relaxed a little.
“I took turns resting for six hours. I heard from others that the slogan in the city is—The great men of Sichuan will not be defeated unless you don’t let them play mahjong.”
This time, even Mu Tao who had always been serious, laughed.
This kind of nonchalance carried infinite optimism.
Earthquake? That wasn’t scary. It wasn’t as scary as not playing mahjong.
What was there to be afraid of!
Yeah, what was there to be afraid of! There wasn’t a single obstacle in the world that couldn’t be overcome!
“Brother, where are you from?” the driver asked.
“When I heard the news, I was studying at the Mayo Clinic in the United States. Once I saw something big, I rushed back overnight.” Mu Tao said, “This spot at the frontline is really hard to get.”
“Yeah, if you drive down there, you can see many teams of college students and ordinary people. Those who drove here wanted to give their support but were blocked outside by the People’s Liberation Army,” the driver said. “There are too many people involved already. There’s no need for so many people. The more people there are, the greater the consumption. What’s missing is heavy engineering equipment and a lack of medical personnel.”
“How’s Pengxi Village?”
“There are six injured people from the affected counties and cities who were first transferred to Pengxi Village to receive supplies before heading to Chengdu. There are many doctors there, and the hospital is full of injured people.”
Mu Tao nodded. He should be able to come in handy.
‘Since that’s the case, then let me play a greater role.’
Previously, Mu Tao was really worried that he would be thrown into the emergency rescue team. As an intervening doctor, he might know emergency treatment, but he could also be considered overqualified.
In terms of skill level, age, physical strength and energy, he was the group with the highest overall quality…
Thinking of this, a figure appeared in front of Mu Tao again.
He could not get rid of it.
What was he doing now? He was sprinting for the Nobel Prize at the Imperial Capital.
It was the same. He could not give up the chance to win the Nobel Prize just because of earthquake relief. Mu Tao did not laugh at the figure in his heart. Instead, he felt a little emotional. What he could not do, the other had done instead.
This time when he returned, he had to work even harder. Mu Tao encouraged himself.
Soon, the helicopter descended and landed on the temporary landing pad at Pengxi Village.
Mu Tao got down from the helicopter and threw himself into the flood of earthquake relief like a soldier ant. If you find any errors ( Ads popup, ads redirect, broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know so we can fix it as soon as possible.
