Chapter Ninety-two: Endless Mountains and Waters

The doctors and nurses put Ouyang Xing on a stretcher and headed straight to the operating room. Brother Hai and I followed closely behind until the car pushed into the operating room. A door slowly closed and blocked our sight from outside the operating room. After a while, a light on the door was on. Brother Hai stood at the door of the operating room with sweat on his head, gasping for breath. I walked over and said softly:

"Brother Hai, sit next to you for a while first! It's useless to be anxious."

Brother Hai nodded and said, "Okay..."

We sat down on the chair next to us, and Brother Hai suddenly said:

"No, I want to contact the captain. I think I will notify Ouyang Xing's family as soon as possible. The situation is not good!"

After saying that, he took out his cell phone and called the captain:

"Captain? I'm Wang Dahai... Well, yes, I'm still in the operating room... How is the situation at home... Oh, that's good, by the way, have you contacted Ouyang Xing's family? I think the situation may not be optimistic... Why is this happening! No, we have to contact them as soon as possible... Well, captain, think of more solutions. If it really doesn't work, please contact the local government... OK, I will notify you as soon as possible if I have any news here... Well, goodbye!"

Brother Hai hung up the phone and sat in a daze in his chair. I couldn't help asking:

"What's wrong?"

Brother Hai said: "No one in Ouyang's family listened to the phone. I heard that his parents are doing business outside the country all year round..."

I said, "Oh... It's a pity that Ouyang doesn't have a cell phone, otherwise it would be easy to find his parents' contact information, but you can find out if Ouyang has a address book or something."

Brother Hai nodded and said, "Well... the captain is already looking for it. By the way, what's going on in training today? Lin Feng stammered and said for a long time. I couldn't figure out how a good person was so injured?"

I smiled wryly and said, "I want to know too! I was scolded by the captain for this matter. It is said that I was hitting the bar, and I don't know the specific situation. At that time, I was on the horizontal bar field, and Lin Feng was responsible for the parallel bar."

Brother Hai sighed and said:

"I'm afraid something will happen to you when you train. I didn't expect that such a big thing happened on the first day. We also have the responsibility. We should be there on the first day of training. After all, some of them need to be improved even if the backbone's personal abilities need to be improved!"

I said, "Actually, Lin Feng is good, but he is a little bit brave. Today's matter has not been clarified. It's too early to hold him accountable now! I hope Ouyang Xing can be safe! Alas!"

Brother Hai said, "I hope he can survive!"

After saying that, neither of us was intent to speak, sat in a daze, I stared at the door of the operating room, and half an hour passed, and there was no sign of the light going out. I didn’t know when the operation would be carried out. I felt so nervous that I was so nervous that the hospital did not allow smoking, otherwise I would have to lit one and take a few good sips. Smoking cigarettes can also relieve a lot when I feel nervous.

Suddenly, a harsh cell phone ringtone came from the quiet corridor, which scared both of us. It was Brother Hai's cell phone ringing. Brother Hai answered the phone and said:

"Hey! Oh, it's the captain... still in the operating room... the situation is still unknown... how are you doing there?... Is that so good, what do they say?... Oh, okay, okay... By the way, you go and report to the department director today, and then ask Lin Feng to find out the situation... OK, okay, goodbye!"

Brother Hai hung up the phone and said to me:

"I have already contacted Ouyang Xing's parents. They took the night flight to Chongqing! Finally, I contacted them, it's great!"

I smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Hai, why are you so happy? Maybe the first thing they did when they got off the plane was to provoke a criminal!"

Brother Hai said seriously:

"Ouyang's life is in danger, and we have the obligation to notify his family. If he... his parents can still meet him. As for ourselves, I don't think so much. Moreover, this matter itself is our responsibility. I will not escape if I deserve to be scolded by the students' parents!"

I was about to speak, and the lights in the operating room went out. We both rushed to the door. After a while, the door opened. The doctor walked out with a tired look on his face. His face was heavy. I felt a little deeper and asked quickly:

"Doctor, how are my comrades?"

The doctor looked at me and asked, "Is the injured family here?"

Brother Hai said: "It's still on the way, I guess I won't be able to arrive in Chongqing at night!"

The doctor nodded and said, "The injured person's skull was ruptured and there was a certain amount of blood congestion in the skull. I performed a craniotomy on him, but the situation was not very ideal. A piece of blood stasis compressed the nerves, and there were many small blood vessels nearby, so I dared not to rashly remove the blood congestion."

I was confused and couldn't help asking:

"Doctor, is my comrade-in-arms okay?"

The doctor said: "It depends on his luck. The intracranial congestion is not cleared and blood vessels may be blocked at any time, causing a large amount of brain bleeding and death. I immediately contacted the brain expert of 301 Hospital, hoping that he can come to Chongqing and perform a new craniotomy on the student."

Brother Hai hurriedly said, "Please trouble you, doctor! Thank you so much!"

At this time, Ouyang Xing was pushed out, his head was covered with bandages. I could not help but feel creepy when I imagined the situation of using an electric drill to open the skull during the operation. His eyes were closed tightly without any reaction.

The doctor looked at him and said, "Before the serum was removed, that part of the nerves were always pressed, and he would be unconscious!"

Ouyang Xing was pushed into the special care ward. Patients who had undergone craniotomy must be taken care of closely and the environment requirements of the ward are even stricter. There should be no bacteria, otherwise it will easily cause infection of the patient. We were all isolated outside the ward. Through the glass of the ward, I saw Ouyang Xing lying motionlessly, with tubes of large and small body inserted. The instrument at the head of the bed accurately realized his weak heartbeat.

The doctor said: "You can enter within the specified visit time every day, but you can only enter after disinfection and change into the sterile clothes we provide."

We nodded and Hai Ge said:

"Thank you! Doctor!"

The doctor said, "You're welcome, if you have anything to call the nurse on duty, I'll leave first!"

"You go slowly!"

After the doctor left, Brother Hai said:

"Changfeng, go for some supper first. It's getting late! I'll watch here first."

I nodded and said, "Brother Hai, what are you eating, I'll bring it back to you."

Brother Hai waved his hand tiredly and said, "It's easy, I don't have any appetite at all. Well... buy two breads and buy two more bottles of water."

I nodded and said, "No problem, then I'll go to have a meal first, just watch here."

Brother Hai nodded weakly. I sighed and turned around and went out for dinner.

I ordered a bowl of beef ramen in a small restaurant at the entrance of the hospital. While eating, I was thinking about what happened today. Even the doctors from the 324th Hospital had no choice but to ask for help from the People's Liberation Army General Hospital. Ouyang Xing's condition was more serious than I thought. I really didn't know how it was done. I just knelt on the parallel bars and it turned out like this. I think the team, the company must be waiting for the latest news from us in panic now, but this news will disappoint everyone.

After a hurry, I walked back. On the way, I bought the bread and water that Brother Hai asked for. I came to the corridor at the door of Ouyang Xing's ward again. Brother Hai was sitting blankly. I walked over and said:

"Brother Hai, you have something to eat first!"

Brother Hai didn't realize it at all, so I patted his shoulder and said:

"Brother Hai, let's have something to eat first!"

Brother Hai came to his senses. He looked up at me, took the bread and other things, and said:

"Come back so soon? Have you eaten?"

I stomped my feet, which were almost frozen, and said:

"Eat it, eat it quickly, I'll just look at it!"

Brother Hai nodded, picked up the bread and ate it with mineral water. At this time, the doctor came over and said to us excitedly:

"I just contacted Director Liu of the General Hospital. I introduced the general situation. He had agreed to come to participate in the joint consultation. Director Liu is one of the top brain surgeons in the country. He rushed over tonight because he was worried that Ouyang Xing's condition would change. With him coming to perform surgery on Ouyang Xing, you can rest assured!"

Brother Hai stood up excitedly, held the doctor's hand and said, "Thank you so much! Doctor, my students depend on you!"

The doctor smiled faintly and said, "It's nothing. Everyone is the People's Liberation Army. You don't have to be so disgusted. Moreover, even if Director Liu takes the surgery personally, it is impossible to succeed 100%. The risks of brain surgery are very high."

Brother Hai said: "Then...if any accident occurs during the operation..."

The doctor said: "There is only one result, that is death, and it is a complete brain death! This is also the reason why I asked you to contact your family as soon as possible. Today I had to undergo surgery, and the injured person is a soldier. Even if there is anything, the possibility of a dispute is not high. Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to do it without the signature of the family."

Brother Hai said: "The family is also going tonight's flight, and it should be coming soon. Doctor, if the surgery is again, how likely is it to be successful?"

The doctor said: "I dare not draw a conclusion about this. Everything will be judged after Director Liu arrives in Chongqing and has personally seen Ouyang Xing's situation."

Brother Hai said "Oh" in disappointment, and then asked: "Then... if the surgery is not performed, how likely is it to be cured?"

The doctor said firmly: "It's almost zero. For example, Ouyang Xing's current condition is like a time bomb installed in his head, which may explode at any time. In this case, not to mention the possibility of recovery is very slim. Let's assume that he has recovered, but the blood stasis in the skull will not dissipate by itself. In other words, he has to live with a time bomb. I don't know when it will explode, it may be the next second, or it may never explode."

Brother Hai nodded understandingly and sat down blankly. Seeing that we had nothing to do, the doctor nodded and signaled to us and left straight away. I walked over and was about to speak, Brother Hai said:

"Changfeng, you can sleep for a while! Get up in the middle of the night for me."

I opened my mouth and was about to speak. Brother Hai waved his hand to stop me and said:

"Stop talking, just go to bed if you ask you to sleep. I will call you on time at twelve o'clock in the evening. Now let me be quiet for a while."

I glanced at him, nodded, and lay down on the long chair. I pulled my clothes a little tightly and curled up on the chair. I was really tired today. I got up early and ran five kilometers. Since this happened in the afternoon, the string in my heart has been tense until now. I was worried that if I didn't relax, the string would break. So although I had been thinking for a while, my physical fatigue quickly made me fall asleep on the simple chair in the hospital.

I don’t know how long it took, but I was woken up by a noisy sound. I rubbed my eyes and sat up. I saw the doctors walking over with a middle-aged man in white coats and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. The doctor said to us from a distance:

"Director Liu is here!"

Brother Hai and I quickly stood up and met him. Brother Hai held Director Liu's hand and said:

"Director Liu! I am the instructor of the patient. My student is still very young. He has a long life in the future. Please be sure to save him!"

Director Liu smiled kindly:

"As a doctor, saving lives and helping the wounded is our duty. I will do my best. Now I will go in and check the patient's condition first."

Brother Hai nodded and said:

"Then please!"

Director Liu nodded with a smile and walked into the disinfection room next to him. When he came out, he was already wrapped in a sterile suit. He walked into Ouyang Xing's ward. We saw in the window that he was first carefully studying Ouyang Xing's medical records and repeatedly studying the X-rays taken today. Then he instructed the nurse to carefully remove the gauze on Ouyang Xing's head and looked at the wound of the craniotomy today for several minutes. Then he stood up and walked out of the door and said to the doctor:

"Prepare the operating room right away! This patient must operate immediately, otherwise it will not last for three hours!"

The doctor said hesitantly: "But the patient's family has not arrived yet..."

Director Liu said: "As soon as possible, follow the power! Aren't the patient a soldier? Just sign it with his direct superior!"

Brother Hai stood up without hesitation and said, "I am his instructor, I have signed this word!"

When the doctor saw that Brother Hai agreed to sign, he immediately ordered someone to prepare the operating room without saying a word. The work efficiency of the 324 hospital is higher than that of our school hospital. Soon, Ouyang Xing was pushed into the operating room again. I said to Brother Hai who was guarding the door:

"If the operation fails and you signed it, how can you explain it to Ouyang's parents when you go back!"

Brother Hai said: "It's important to save people. Anyway, if he has something to do, my military career will basically end, and bad things will not be bad anymore! Besides, Director Liu is a top expert. If he can't do anything, I will admit that I'm unlucky!"

After saying that, I walked straight to the chair and sat down, closing my eyes to rest. But I always felt frightened, as if I felt that this operation might not be so optimistic. I was always restless, so I kept walking around the corridor. It seemed that a hundred years have passed, and the door of the operating room has not been opened, and this difficult operation is still in progress.

I paced back and forth, and felt a little tired after a long time. When I was about to find a chair to sit down, the lights in the operating room suddenly went out. After a while, the door opened. I looked over nervously. The first thing that came into my eyes was Director Liu's tired and heavy face. My heart skipped a beat and knew that things were bad.
