I learned that someone was missing for more than ten days
He went up the mountain twice and finally found Gan Yu
Ni Taigao, 58, has lived in Yuejin Village, Wanggangping Township, Shimian County for most of his life.
The house is built on the mountain, and behind it is the Tiger Hill, which he has been familiar with since childhood.
When the earthquake struck on September 5, Ni Taigao's family and the entire village were moved down the mountain.
The house collapsed and no one could live there, but he still cared about the dozen sheep at home.
On September 19, Ni Taigao went home alone to take care of the sheep. It was near noon when he happened to see two young people in camouflage uniforms walking past the door, "One male and one female, the male is in his 30s and 40s, and the female looks only 20. Many years old, hurrying, shuffling, and feeling very tired."
Ni Taigao moved out two benches and let the two young people sit down and rest. After a chat, they learned that they were busy looking for someone.
"They said they belonged to the rescue team. There were 10 people in total, and 8 of them were still looking for it on the mountain. One person came out of the Wandong Power Station, and it has been more than ten days."
Ni Taigao has been a village cadre for many years and is familiar with the situation in the mountains. He guessed: "If this person is still alive, if he wants to come out, he must climb over the Tiger Hill."
Hearing that there were people in the mountains, Ni Taigao couldn't be relieved. At 6 o'clock the next morning, he went up the mountain alone to find someone, shouting and searching, and walked all morning, but found nothing. down the mountain."
At 6:00 am on September 21, Ni Taigao went up the mountain again.
This time, he took some food and water with him and searched for a different route on the mountain.
According to the data, Menghugang is a sinister mountain with thorns.
"It may be 2,000 meters high, and the terrain is complex. The mountains are covered with trees, bamboos, and landslides." In the mountains, Ni Taigao was also a little scared. At 8:00 in the morning, when he vaguely heard a strange sound from the top of the mountain , he once thought that something wild appeared.
"Oh oh oh... I called a few times." Ni Taigao felt like a goat's cry.
He approached the direction of the sound, climbed into the middle of the mountain, and when he heard a "help", Ni Taigao was excitedly convinced, "There is someone there!"
"Left or right?" At first, Ni Taigao couldn't tell where the voice came from. He circled the mountain before determining the opponent's position.
Ni Taigao recalled that when he found Gan Yu, he was caught in the open space between two landslides. "There are traces of landslides on the left and right, and there is only a relatively safe place in the middle."
"As soon as he saw me, he cried, kept crying, and cried for a long time." Ni Taigao said, Gan Yu looked very weak, his mental state was not very good, and his whole body was injured. "He was wearing a raincoat, his pants and shoes were Rotten and wet."
"It's a little difficult for him to walk. I can't carry it alone." Ni Taigao called Ni Taiping, his younger brother, who was a militia company commander in the village, and called for support. Then he called his wife and asked her to bring a set of clothes. .
Knowing that he saved a retrograde hero
He was happy and moved: "He saved more people"
While waiting for support, Ni Taigao helped Gan Yu leave the danger zone, "I took one step, he took one step, and walked very slowly. He didn't arrive at a safe place until about 11 o'clock. He lay down and rested."
During the exchange, Ni Taigao felt that Gan Yu's mental state was very poor, "At first, he said that he had been on this mountain for more than 30 days, then he said more than 20 days, and then said for several days, but he couldn't figure it out. "Ni Taigao heard Gan Yu say that in the mountains, he drank the water in the ravine every day, picked wild fruits to eat, and spent the night in the bushes.
At around 3 pm, two or three rescue teams arrived one after another, "there were dozens of people in the front and back".
Gan Yu's cousin and more than ten villagers came to the mountain. They cut down some branches to make a simple stretcher and carried Gan Yu down the mountain. "After walking for one kilometer, the helicopter came."
At around 3 pm on September 21, Gan Yu was escorted by the rescue force and boarded a helicopter for transfer to the hospital.
According to media reports, Gan Yu was transferred to the West China Hospital of Sichuan University for treatment. His vital signs are stable and his consciousness is clear.
Ni Taigao later learned that the person he saved was a retrograde flood discharge hero.
"Happy and very moved." Ni Taigao said with a strong accent, "He saved more people."
On September 5, a magnitude 6.8 earthquake occurred in Luding.
When the earthquake occurred, there were more than ten people in the Luding Bay East Hydropower Station, two of whom were buried and died, and the rest escaped.
The cover news report said that in the panic, Luo Yong saw that the water level in front of the dam had risen significantly. He judged that the power plant unit was shut down due to the earthquake, and the flood gate must be lifted immediately, otherwise the flood water would overflow the dam and threaten the safety of hundreds of people in the villages below.
He rushed onto the dam abutment against the rolling stones and opened the floodgates.
After that, only Luo Yong and Gan Yu were left in the entire power station.
In the process of running out, Gan Yu took off his glasses.
At this time, they thought that the generator in the hydropower station had not stopped and there was a potential safety hazard, so they went back to the factory building and pulled the switch.
The next day, the two decided to save themselves, but they didn't go out after walking for a long time.
On September 7, the two went out for another 20 to 30 kilometers. Gan Yu was exhausted and chose to wait for rescue.
Luo Yong continued to walk out, trying to find a way to ask for help.
On the morning of September 8, Luo Yong was rescued by releasing smoke and was taken out by a rescue helicopter. Gan Yu lost contact and spent 17 days in the wild.
