Chapter 672 - Not Fighting Alone



Chapter 672: Not Fighting Alone

In the narrow space, the air circulation was not good and was a little stuffy.

Zheng Ren’s every step was steady. The patient was semi-unconscious so there was no need to communicate. He only needed to do the corresponding anti-shock treatment.

Prepare sterile bags and medical supplies for the intervention.

The staff at the back who prepared medical supplies probably did not know what Zheng Ren needed nor could they ask him, so they brought him a variety of tubes and medical supplies.

Zheng Ren picked out the medical supplies he needed and brought them down. When he was ready, he suddenly felt the ground shaking.

There was nothing he could do. Zheng Ren smiled and began to sterilize the small space in a rough and casual manner.

Opening the outer layer of the sterile bag, Zheng Ren put on the sterile gloves without washing his hands.

In such a simple and crude environment, there was no way he could. He could only try his best to be sterile.

The ground shook more and more violently. Zheng Ren could almost hear the sound of the ground howling beneath his feet.

However, he did not have the intention to run at all. In the face of such a situation, Little Zheng did not need to run, and the big quake could not escape.

Everything was left to fate.

He needed to seize as much time as he could to complete the surgery and stop the continuous bleeding. The patient’s retroperitoneal pressure was extremely high, and the small blood vessels were constantly bleeding. For the time being, there was no condition for blood transfusion.

After the intervention to stop the bleeding, the seriously injured person would be transferred to Chengdu as soon as possible. Whether it was to Huaxi or the Provincial Hospital, as long as it was handled properly, everything would be…too late for Zheng Ren to say anything. What he was doing now was gambling on hope.

It was like a black mass of light spots appearing on the horizon, signaling hope.

The area was partially sterilized as he spread out a sterile towel and made the puncture.

All of a sudden, Zheng Ren shook.

The sound of the ground under his feet grew louder and louder. It was obvious that the people outside had also sensed this. Su Yun and Zhao Yunlong began to shout loudly from outside, asking Zheng Ren to come out first.

Zheng Ren ignored them. With the emergency flashlight in his mouth, he continued to operate with the light of the flashlight.

The aftershock’s intensity could only be considered medium. It could not be compared to the last time.

His feet were shaking more and more, but Zheng Ren’s hands were extremely steady. There was not the slightest tremble.

In less than thirty seconds, the micro-guide wire was sent to the position.

Opening the gastrointestinal machine, a very blurry image appeared in front of his eyes. Zheng Ren’s posture was very strange. His head was slightly lowered so that the light of the flashlight in his mouth did not fall on the gastrointestinal machine’s screen. However, his eyes were trying hard to look up to see the blurry image.

It was so lonely to operate on a person alone, especially in an earthquake zone.

It was so lonely to operate on a person in a building that had already collapsed in the earthquake zone.

A person who braved aftershocks and had a flashlight in his mouth in a collapsing building…that was continuing to collapse. Operating in a place where he might be buried alive quickly snuffed his loneliness.

This was a race against death.

A figure was lying down outside. He wanted to crawl in but was pulled by others and dragged away from the most dangerous place. This was to prevent the building from collapsing and burying everyone in the vicinity outside.

Zhao Yunlong could do it. Zheng Ren narrowed his eyes and stared at the image. As he carefully distinguished the many branches of the internal iliac artery, he thought to himself.

‘Why did Su Yun come in? If the building collapsed, would he die with me?’

Nonsense.

If he could live, it was better to have one more person alive. It was so melodramatic. Zheng Ren did not like this kind of plot.

Within the blurry image, Zheng Ren identified the branches of the artery based on his senses. It was an extremely difficult surgery. Normally, even if an intervening doctor did it, it would take at least three to five hours.

However, in Zheng Ren’s hands, the surgery became extremely simple even if he only used the gastrointestinal machine.

It seemed to be no different from the double c-arm machine in Sea City General Hospital’s emergency operating theater. The effects of the equipment that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars were the same as that of equipment that cost tens of millions of dollars.

The micro-guiding wire continued to go on. The superselection, medication, embolization, and imaging were completed in one go.

The ground was shaking and the earth howled incessantly. It was as if countless ghosts and ghouls were threatening Zheng Ren.

However, all of this did not make his hands tremble. It was as if he was on the hybrid operating table in Sea City General Hospital’s emergency operating theater. Outside, Chu Yanran and Chu Yanzhi were watching the numbers on the monitor.

Xie Yiren was sitting in a corner, waiting. She would either rush in at any time to perform resuscitation, or she would come in to clean up the room after the surgery was successful.

Now that he thought about it, that kind of life was really wonderful.

Zheng Ren tried his best to imagine this cramped space as the hybrid operating table that he was most familiar with. He was not alone. As long as he said something, countless people would definitely rush in from outside.

Yes, yes, he was not fighting alone.

This was not to comfort himself. If he needed to, no matter how dangerous it was, there would definitely be many unknown PLA soldiers rushing in from outside as long as he shouted even if the place would collapse in the next second.

He was not alone, not at all.

The second one, the third one…

In this desperate situation, Zheng Ren was extremely focused.

His surgical skills were almost at the peak of the world. He did not notice that in the system space, the already flourishing skill tree had gone crazy. It grew wild and was covered in green.

He did not notice the earthquake’s fluctuations.

Unintentionally, Zheng Ren’s actions coordinated with the ground’s fluctuations. It was as if he was playing a beautiful piece of music. His voice was empty and distant, heroic and majestic.

Even Zheng Ren had forgotten about the danger and was immersed in a beautiful rhythm.

Fighting against the heavens, the Earth, injuries, and illnesses… A never-ending fight.

Unknowingly, the aftershocks disappeared. The Earth’s roar that came from the depths of its core returned helplessly. It was as if the monster was tired and had fallen asleep.

Zheng Ren still did not notice all of this. He relaxed his entire body and sensed the movements. He also used the strength of his wrists and fingers to control the micro-guide wire to accomplish his goal.

A total of six blood vessel branches were embolized in 25 minutes.

When the final contrast agent was no longer seeping out of a large area, Zheng Ren let out a long breath and withdrew the micro-guide wire.

After the surgery was completed, Zheng Ren also walked out of that mysterious realm.

It was so strange… Zheng Ren only realized then that it seemed… Seemed…like he had improved again?

At the level of Gao Shaojie and Professor Rudolf Wagner, it was difficult to improve. It was even worse for someone like him.

However, Zheng Ren did feel that he had improved. He did not have time to check the System space. The micro-conducting wire was pulled out, and he did not even have time to suppress the bleeding. After applying pressure on the bandage, he called for someone to carry the patient out.

Two young soldiers from the People’s Liberation Army immediately crawled in. They used their shoulders, heads, and all the available parts to hold the stretcher until the people outside dragged the simple stretcher out.

Zheng Ren made a gesture, indicating for them to go out first and he would follow.

However, the young PLA soldiers did not move. The two of them saluted at the same time and built a human bridge, indicating for Zheng Ren to step on them.

The moment he saw the salute, Zheng Ren was calm but tears streamed down his face.
