Chapter 239 Someone has fainted
Captain Wang had only taken a few steps when Director Sun, who was standing to the side, stared at Li Kaixin, finding him increasingly familiar.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind: he remembered the photo and name he had seen in the newspaper a few days ago. Wasn't that the young man in front of him?
"You...you are Master Li Kaixin?" Director Sun asked uncertainly.
Li Kaixin, who was about to go to help at his car, paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded: "It's me, Director Sun."
Director Sun looked delighted and quickly stepped forward to shake his hand:
"I'm so glad to finally meet you in person! I've read your report over and over again. To have such talent at such a young age is truly a role model for us all!"
"Director Sun, you flatter me!" Li Kaixin smiled modestly.
While Director Sun was warmly greeting Li Kaixin with a handshake, people were already busy moving grain and helping others.
Li Kaixin felt embarrassed to stand there any longer, so she tactfully withdrew her hand: "Director Sun, I have to go to the car to prepare. We can talk later."
"Yes, yes, you go ahead with your work!" Director Sun nodded repeatedly, watching Li Kaixin walk towards his car.
After Li Kaixin walked away, a young clerk approached and whispered, "Second Uncle, who was that? Why were you being so polite?"
"You little brat, don't you read the newspaper?" Director Sun glared at him, annoyed. "That's Master Li from the transportation station, he's been in the newspaper!"
"Oh!" The young clerk stuck out his tongue and quickly ran off to get to work.
When Li Kaixin returned to her car, Zhou Zhiming was already sweating profusely from his work.
He was helping a petite, gray-haired old woman.
"Slow down, Grandma, step here." Zhou Zhiming supported the old woman's arm and led her to the car.
Several young people already in the back of the train reached out and helped pull the old lady up.
But they themselves had been starving for a long time, and after pulling the person up, they were all panting heavily.
The old lady settled herself in the car, turned around and gave Zhou Zhiming a weak smile: "Young man, thank you."
"You're welcome! You're welcome!"
Zhou Zhiming scratched his head, and when he saw Li Kaixin coming over, he quickly ran up to him: "Master, you don't know, I just helped several people, and they were all skin and bones."
Li Kaixin gave a soft "hmm," and seeing the beads of sweat still on his apprentice's forehead, he said gently, "Zhiming, if you're tired, go and rest for a while. I'll take care of the rest."
"Master, I'm not tired." Zhou Zhiming wiped the sweat from his forehead, his eyes serious. "I'll work with you!"
"Good!" Li Kaixin looked at his apprentice with a gratified expression.
After the master and apprentice returned to the car, one of them helped the person upstairs, while the other helped carry the luggage and the distributed quilts upstairs.
As the morning mist gradually dissipated, the more than one hundred people in front of the temporary shelter finally boarded the vehicles.
Captain Wang stood at the front of the convoy, checking the number of people and supplies one by one before nodding to Director Sun.
Director Sun stepped forward, grasped Captain Wang's hand, and said with a choked voice, "Captain Wang, you must have had a hard time on this journey. They really had a tough time."
"Don't worry, Director Sun, I will make sure you get the person to safety." Captain Wang shook hands firmly, then turned and got into the car.
One after another, the trucks of the transport team started up and slowly drove away from the thatched huts.
There were nine people crammed into the back of Li Kaixin's car. Among them were three children and two elderly people.
Zhou Zhiming sat in the passenger seat, glancing back every now and then.
After holding it in for a while, he finally couldn't help but lower his voice and ask, "Master, is it really that cold in Inner Mongolia?"
He understood after listening to what was said. The experienced drivers weren't reluctant to part with the quilt; they were worried that someone might not be able to bear the weight during the journey.
"It's cold, especially at night," Li Kaixin replied softly. "What's wrong, Zhiming? Didn't you bring a thick coat?"
"Yes, yes, I brought it! Master, you specifically told me to bring it yesterday, how could I forget?" Zhou Zhiming said, glancing back again, "I'm just worried, what if they..."
He couldn't continue speaking halfway through his sentence.
Li Kaixin did not respond to that.
He knew, of course, who Zhou Zhiming was worried about, and could only say that he would do his best and leave the rest to fate.
Because there were elderly people and children in the car, Li Kaixin did not let Zhou Zhiming practice driving this time.
However, after navigating a rugged mountain road, the convoy encountered an accident.
Suddenly, a woman's heart-wrenching wails came from the back of Mr. Guo's truck: "Xiao Hu! Wake up! How can you live without your mother!"
This cry brought the entire convoy to a halt.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Captain Wang, who was at the front of the convoy, got out of his car in a hurry and ran towards Master Guo's car as fast as he could.
My mind was still thinking: Please don't let anything happen, please don't let anything happen!
He had just assured Director Sun that they had only gone a short distance, and if something really happened, how could he explain it when he got back?
Because Master Guo's car was not far away, Captain Wang arrived at it in just a few steps.
A woman was slumped in the car, holding a pale little boy in her arms.
The child's eyes were closed, and he had already lost consciousness.
Master Guo was pacing anxiously to the side, wringing his hands, not knowing what to do.
Upon seeing this, Captain Wang immediately turned around and shouted towards the back of the car, "Kaixin, come quick, someone's fainted!"
"Coming, coming!" Li Kaixin got out of the car and rushed over when he realized something was wrong ahead.
Upon arriving and seeing the child's condition, he didn't say a word, and immediately got into the car.
"Grandma, don't worry, let me check on the child first." Li Kaixin squatted down and took the little boy's pulse.
Then he rolled his eyelids over and looked at his tongue coating.
Li Kaixin immediately understood: the child had fainted because of severe blood and qi deficiency, coupled with the bumpy ride in the car.
He then took out silver needles and gently inserted them into several acupoints on the boy.
The woman standing nearby watched intently the whole time, barely daring to breathe, for fear of disturbing the peace.
Although the young master looked quite old, she had no other hope at the moment.
A short while later, the little boy's eyelids twitched, and he slowly woke up.
He looked around in confusion, his gaze finally settling on the woman's face. He weakly called out, "Mother, what's wrong with me?"
"Little Tiger!" The woman hugged her son tightly, tears welling up in her eyes again.
Seeing this, Li Kaixin quickly spoke up to stop her: "Auntie, don't rush, the child is still weak, don't cover him up like that."
"Okay, okay!" The woman quickly loosened her grip, raised her head, her eyes still red, and her voice trembling, "Thank you, young master."
"No need, no need, it's all the least I can do."
Li Kaixin pulled a handful of White Rabbit milk candies from her pocket and handed them over: "Auntie, please keep these candies. Give the child one every now and then on the way, and he won't get dizzy again."
After saying that, he shoved the candy into the woman's hand, turned around, and jumped off the car.
The woman wanted to say something but didn't.
For the sake of her child, she dared not refuse, but stared blankly at the young master's back, as if trying to etch him into her heart.
