Sha Zhu's Rebirth in the Courtyard: Starting with Hitting Someone in the Head

Chapter 416 First Aid in the Ruins

He Yuzhu arrived at the playground, where wounded people were scattered everywhere, and despair enveloped everyone. He raised his voice, drowning out the sobs and cries that rose and fell:

"I cleared away some of the ruins of several shops on the street and moved out a lot of drinking water, food, and tents. The items were scattered in several places, and I couldn't possibly move them all by myself. Strong men and older students, come with me, and we'll split up and carry them back to distribute them to everyone present."

In their despair, upon hearing of life-saving supplies, a large group of young men stood up in response. He Yuzhu led the group to the main street of the town, where three gaps in the ruins were clearly visible, and supplies were placed in the open spaces outside the shops.

The supplies were transported back to the playground, and everyone worked together to set up tents, creating a large refuge area.

He Yuzhu set up a large surgical tent on the inner side of the playground of Xuankou Middle School, away from the dangerous buildings, specifically as a surgical emergency center for the disaster area.

After everyone had finished eating and drinking, almost everyone had minor injuries and abrasions. They had all dug through the rubble with their bare hands to rescue people, and their hands and arms were covered in wounds.

He Yuzhu selected a dozen or so brave and strong young men who were among the disaster victims:

"I don't have many first-aid supplies with me, not enough to cover the basic bandaging of thousands of people. You need to come with me to the town's health center to get emergency medication; there are thousands of people waiting to have their wounds bandaged here."

A group of people braved the rain to reach the Yingxiu Town Health Center, which had completely sunk and collapsed.

Most of the building is buried underground, and aftershocks continue to cause rockfalls, making it impossible for ordinary people to approach.

He Yuzhu displayed his strength in front of everyone, lifting a concrete slab weighing several tons with his bare hands to clear a narrow opening. Two doctors from the town's health center and several trapped patients with minor injuries were all rescued.

He immediately assigned tasks, his logic clear: "It's too dangerous here; it could collapse again at any moment. You all need to escort the two doctors and the surviving wounded back to the playground immediately."

The area is littered with wounded waiting to be treated. You all go back first to do basic bandaging, stop the bleeding, and clean the wounds. First aid supplies are available in the surgical tent. I'll leave some emergency medications here; you can come back later to move the supplies.

The disaster victims dared not delay, and surrounded the doctors and the wounded, returning to the playground of Xuankou Middle School to begin basic rescue work.

The health center was completely deserted, leaving only He Yuzhu.

With no one watching, he immediately activated his senses and saw the entire ruins clearly.

First, collect all the remaining bandages, iodine, hemostatic powder, common Western medicines, stretchers, wheelchairs, and simple surgical tools from the hospital.

Then, he took out a large number of new medical supplies, surgical instruments, sterilization equipment, diesel generators, barrels of diesel fuel, and medical lighting from his own space.

All of them were neatly arranged on the open ground outside the hospital. When the group of people returned and saw the mountain of medical supplies, they were dumbfounded. He Yuzhu urged them to quickly transport them back to the playground.

The generator started immediately upon landing, and the bright light illuminated the large tent clearly, eliminating the need for flashlights and making it perfectly suitable for performing surgery.

He Yuzhu stopped a few local disaster victims and asked, "Where is a traditional Chinese medicine shop in town? I know traditional Chinese medicine, and we urgently need Chinese herbs and prepared Chinese medicines to save lives."

Several disaster victims immediately gave him directions, saying that there was a traditional Chinese medicine shop that had been open for decades in the old street, but it had all collapsed in the earthquake.

He Yuzhu rushed to the ruins of the traditional Chinese medicine shop in the old street alone. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he first took some Chinese medicine from the collapsed shop as a sample, and then placed a large quantity of prepared Chinese medicine, hemostatic ointment, bone-setting external application medicine, and several sets of acupuncture tools from his space on the open ground outside the ruins.

After he finished, he called people over to move everything back to the emergency tent.

By this time, electricity, lights, a full range of Western and Chinese medicines, and all necessary equipment and stretchers were available. Doctors were also on site, and the conditions for rescuing seriously injured patients were complete.

With everything prepared, He Yuzhu addressed everyone on the playground:

"Next, I'm going into the ruins to look for survivors! The aftershocks are constant, it's too dangerous inside, no one is allowed to follow me!"

"You all wait outside. Get the stretchers ready. Work in pairs. I'll pull the injured person out, and you two immediately take turns carrying them back to the tent for emergency treatment!"

For the next few hours, aftershocks continued throughout the night, and the valley echoed with thunderous roars.

He Yuzhu shuttled back and forth through the ruins of the town, pretending to be constantly searching for survivors. Here and there, intermittently, he placed the more than 120 unconscious and seriously injured patients in the space onto stretchers in the open area, where they were carried back for treatment.

All the disaster victims outside witnessed this and were filled with admiration. In their eyes, this man was fearless, repeatedly venturing into the most dangerous ruins and digging out the survivors trapped inside one by one.

A steady stream of seriously injured patients were carried into the tents in pairs.

Inside the emergency tent, two township doctors were constantly busy. They were handling all the simple wounds, routine sutures, and pressure bandages.

They have no problem with basic skills and can handle routine bandaging and suturing. But when faced with serious injuries such as comminuted fractures, internal bleeding, organ damage, or limb necrosis, they are completely helpless and can only worry helplessly.

He Yuzhu entered the tent and took over the care of all the seriously injured patients.

Once his senses were activated, he could clearly see where the patient had fractures, bruises, internal bleeding, and tissue necrosis.

He personally performed all the complex bone setting, acupuncture bloodletting, acupuncture to stabilize breathing, external application of traditional Chinese medicine to stop bleeding and reduce swelling, locating amputations, and rescuing patients with severe internal organ injuries.

While operating the machine, he also kept directing the two doctors to do their work.

"The wound is smooth, continue stitching it up."

"Wrap two more layers of gauze here and press firmly to stop the bleeding."

"Clean the wound thoroughly and disinfect it again."

The two doctors kept working, becoming increasingly shocked. They had dedicated their lives to grassroots healthcare and had never seen such a life-saving technique before.

You can see through a patient's internal injuries without taking X-rays.

Bone-setting techniques are quick and accurate, and can reposition the bone in just a few seconds.

A critically ill patient on the verge of death can be brought back to life with just a few needles and a dose of herbal medicine. Even the most difficult amputations due to crush injuries are performed with swift, precise, and flawless movements.

The two men were busy with their hands, but their eyes grew increasingly fixed on the scene, utterly shocked. The person before them possessed medical skills far beyond their comprehension; he was practically a living saint.

Under the lights, He Yuzhu's surgical gown was covered in bloodstains, yet he moved with unwavering composure. His inherent composure, even in his disheveled state, could not be concealed.

The older doctor, examining He Yuzhu's profile, felt a growing sense of familiarity. As he stitched the wound, his hands trembled violently. After a long pause, he tentatively asked in a low voice:

"Sir, forgive my intrusion... but I've seen your face before... in newspapers and magazines. You... are you He Yuzhu?"

Upon hearing this, the young doctor next to him shuddered, abruptly looked up, his gaze fixed on He Yuzhu, and he suddenly held his breath.

The world's richest man was trapped alone in the ruins of this isolated town at the epicenter of the earthquake, covered in blood, rescuing strangers from the disaster.

The huge difference left the two of them momentarily blank in their minds.
