"You are lucky. You generate heat by carrying a person on your back, and this person's body keeps you warm. He saved you, and you saved him."
It was a late autumn day, and white clouds were floating leisurely against the blue September sky. Bain and Robert decided to take advantage of this good day to go hiking. Mountain climbing is their common hobby, which can help them reduce work pressure, enhance mutual friendship, and add fun to life.
They have climbed the mountain in front of them many times. This time, like many times before, we planned to spend three days and two nights. On the first day they will climb to 3/4 of the height of the mountain, and then they will pitch their tent next to the huge granite they are familiar with. They continued climbing the next day and reached the top of the mountain at about noon. After lunch and a short rest, they will return the same way and arrive at their camp next to the granite at about dusk. Then, they sleep in the tent overnight and return to the mountain on the third day.
On the first day, they arrived at the granite as scheduled, set up camp and spent the night. The next day, they continued climbing. This day was the same as the day before. The sky was extremely blue, with only a hint of north wind blowing. When they reached the top of the mountain, the wind gradually picked up and dark clouds began to gather in the distance. "The weather has changed. I suggest leaving right after eating and not taking a nap." Bain said. Robert agreed.
The two began to go down the mountain. Soon, lightning lit up the distant sky, and low thunder could be heard faintly. Gusts of strong wind swept up dust and surrounded them with tree branches. The temperature also dropped suddenly. The two of them wrapped their jackets tightly, pulled the zipper down to their chins, and headed down the mountain in the face of the increasingly strong wind.
Soon, it started to snow. After only two hours, the ground was covered with a thick blanket of snow ankle deep. Along the way, they needed to stop frequently to take shelter from the cold wind and blizzards, and rub each other's shoulders to help speed up blood circulation and generate heat.
The weather was getting worse and worse, the temperature was as low as an ice cellar, and now the minutes felt like hours. They took turns to clear the way through the thicker and thicker snow. At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, they arrived at the camp. The tent had been collapsed by heavy snow. They all know the power of this kind of storm. If they don't get out of the storm's center as soon as possible, they could be stuck in it for days or even weeks. Therefore, they could not stay overnight in the camp as originally planned and had to rush down the mountain non-stop.
They had not been walking for long when they suddenly saw a big protrusion. Bane looked around, brushing away several inches of snow from the object. To his surprise, it was an unconscious man. At this time, Bain and Robert encountered a new problem.
"We have no choice," Robert said. "We might all die if we take him with us."
"We can't leave him alone. If so, he will die." ." Bain said.
The two started arguing. Finally, Robert said: "I don't want to die with you. If you must take him with you, we will have to go our separate ways." He walked away alone. Bain used all his strength to carry the man on his back. Although Bain was tall and tall, Bain could only carry him on his back.
It was getting darker and darker, and the road was getting harder and harder. Bain felt that the man he was carrying was getting heavier and heavier. However, from walking on his back, his body began to feel warm. Soon, he felt that the person on his back was no longer as cold as ice as it was at the beginning, but more like a warm leather jacket. It would be great if we could stop and rest for a while! However, he knew that once he stopped, he might not have the strength to carry the man on his back. "We will succeed!" he insisted, encouraging himself.
When the morning light first appeared, he saw that the flying snow in front was dyed orange. There are lights! He shouted for help at the top of his lungs. It was a police car and an ambulance, he was saved!
In the ambulance, he saw a man lying on a stretcher covered with a quilt, and there were clothes he was familiar with on the quilt. "It's Robert. How is he?" he asked hurriedly. However, the ambulance crew around him remained silent.
"It's very unfortunate," an ambulance worker said after a while, "it's too cold, and his clothes..." He glanced at Bain, who was also wearing only a jacket, and then continued: "You are lucky. You generate heat by carrying a person on your back, and this person's body keeps you warm. He saved you, and you also saved him."
Sometimes, choose There is no right or wrong, but there is a difference between being noble or selfless. Bain and Robert made their own choices at critical moments. Both choices were not wrong, just different. However, in the end, it was Bain's noble choice that saved others as well as himself.
Hope this helps! O(∩_∩)O~
