The collapsed pit was over two meters deep, a scene of utter chaos, while outside was even more dismal. About a dozen people, who didn't seem too badly hurt, were leaning against the roadside being cared for by some kind-hearted individuals.
Not far away, a crowd of official personnel surrounded those cars involved in a chain collision, seemingly in rescue efforts to get those trapped inside the vehicles out!
Liu Zixuan was alone; though his medical skills were extraordinary, he didn't have three heads and six arms, so he could only search for those in critical condition for immediate rescue.
He immediately approached an official personnel: "Bro, who is the most seriously injured?"
"You are..."
"I'm a doctor!"
"Doctor?" The official personnel glanced at Liu Zixuan, frowned, and muttered, "A doctor at an accident site without a white coat? No medical kit? What kind of doctor is that?"
Liu Zixuan grimaced. He had really encountered a stubborn person. Time was running out, and he quickly explained, "I'm a passing doctor, I saw the incident here and rushed over."
"But..."
"Why aren't you anxious? Lives are at stake, yet you're concerned if I'm a doctor. Do I have to wear a white coat to save a life?" Liu Zixuan said unhappily, "Get your superior here!"
"I'm their superior, is there a problem?" As Liu Zixuan finished speaking, a short and stout man in uniform walked over from the side, exuding authority.
"Chief Zhang, he says he's a doctor, but look at him, does he seem like one?" The staff member explained.
"Doctor? Just you?" Chief Zhang asked, looking slightly irritated as he cast a sideways glance at Liu Zixuan.
"Chief Zhang, right? I don't think it's necessary to debate whether I'm alone or if I'm a doctor now. Since I'm here, I'm surely here to help, so shouldn't we focus on rescuing people first?"
Liu Zixuan suppressed his inner anger, thinking that usually, regardless of who they were, he'd just slap anyone across the face!
"Zixuan?"
At this moment, a familiar figure suddenly emerged from the crowd towards Liu Zixuan!
"Mayor." Upon seeing Wang Kun, the staff member and Chief Zhang instantly showed a respectful demeanor!
Wang Kun glared at them, "Do you have time to chat at a moment like this!"
"I was afraid he was causing trouble!" Chief Zhang scratched his head, acting wronged.
Hoping to gain some praise by playing the victim in front of Wang Kun, he did not expect a scolding storm to follow!
"If he were causing trouble, you wouldn't even have the ability to cause trouble! Do you know who he is? The officially recognized miracle doctor of both Yuqing City and Ghost Wood City. Normally, even offering a million wouldn't bring him, now he's here voluntarily to help, yet you're still nitpicking!"
Wang Kun cursed furiously, "Get to work! If after this incident, you make such a mistake again, you'll be sent home to feed pigs. The public doesn't need incompetent officials like you!"
Chief Zhang and the staff member were completely stunned. They had indeed heard of Liu Zixuan's reputation but had never seen him in person! Who'd imagine him being so young and appearing at such a crucial time!
Not daring to waste any more words now, after being scolded, they rushed to the side to help out!
"Why is Yuqing City's top official in Ghost Wood City?" Liu Zixuan curiously asked.
"It's too complicated to explain in a few words, I'll tell you after; let's rescue people first."
Saying that, Wang Kun led Liu Zixuan to the right side. As they passed through the crowd, Wang Kun said, "There are two critically injured on that Meteor Vehicle, with lives on the line!"
"Let's go check it out!"
Upon approaching the front, Liu Zixuan was startled by the scene!
The front of the Meteor Vehicle was severely wrecked, with a small truck ahead carrying thumb-thick rebar which, due to the heavy collision, had penetrated through the Meteor Vehicle.
The critical part was, a piece of rebar had impaled both the front passenger seat and a person in the back seat together.
Liu Zixuan's mouth twitched slightly, asking, "What about the other people in the car?"
"The driver died on the spot, the body has been placed on the funeral home vehicle," Wang Kun said, frowning. "Zixuan, maybe you haven't noticed from this angle, but in the back seat, there's a woman holding a one-year-old child in her arms."
Liu Zixuan's pupils contracted slightly and quickly ran over.
The back door on the left side had been removed, clearly revealing a man and woman impaled by the rebar, and in the back seat, the woman was clutching a child about one-year-old, tightly pressed against the seat.
The angle was particularly tricky, as moving the child would directly pull the rebar, causing the woman to bleed and die on the spot! But if left unmoved, the child might suffocate to death!
"We tried various ways, but ended up failing, afraid to move without caution. Some doctors came by… sigh," Wang Kun lamented.
"Why sigh? What happened to the doctors who came?" Liu Zixuan asked.
"Not sure what the hospital was thinking, sending four doctors over—three of them young, who got scared immediately at the scene and hid on the side, and the calm one just shook his head, unable to do anything! Now we can only rely on you, but it'll take more time for Ghost Wood City's doctors to arrive!" Wang Kun said anxiously.
Liu Zixuan nodded, crouched down slowly, and carefully placed his fingers on the child's pulse.
The pulse was still within the normal range, but due to the pressure, the skin on the left arm had turned blue, a clear sign of impaired blood circulation!
"Save… save my child!" The woman impaled by the rebar weakly opened her eyes a crack, her face devoid of color, she spoke in a blend of a plea and desperation!
Seeing this scene, Liu Zixuan suddenly recalled Ying Qingning's dream, uncannily identical to this moment, and at that time, her biological parents made the same decision, they were willing to die, but the child had to live!
Having witnessed Ying Qingning's parents' demise before, how could Liu Zixuan let the tragedy happen again!
He solemnly looked at the woman, "Don't worry, you all will be fine!"
The woman slightly nodded before closing her eyes again, too weak from her severe injuries to maintain her strength.
Liu Zixuan took a deep breath and said to Wang Kun, "Get me four strong men over here, and I need clean water; even if there's no respirator, find something with the same function quickly!"
"I'll arrange it right away!" Wang Kun nodded forcibly and hurriedly called people to make arrangements.
Not long after, four burly men arrived. Wang Kun, looking troubled, said, "There's nothing that could replace a respirator, it would be too late to transfer one from the hospital!"
Liu Zixuan gritted his teeth, "Keep urging them, I'll start the rescue!"
