Li Tianyi didn't move at all, not a trace of fear could be seen on his fair and neat face, he just stood there calmly.
"Creak!" A sudden brake sound!
The car stopped steadily, with the front of the car less than 2 centimeters away from Li Tianyi's body!
Sun Dana's chest was heaving and he was panting. The moment just now was really thrilling! He really didn't expect that this white-faced scholar village party secretary was really not afraid of death, and had no intention of evading or flinching!
This was the first time he had seen such a person for so many years in society. Fortunately, although he drove into Li Tianyi, it seemed that he was going very fast, but in fact he kept pressing the brakes and his speed did not increase completely.
He is not stupid, he naturally knows that he will bear legal responsibility if he kills someone.
Pulling on the handbrake, Dana Sun stuck his head out of the car window, glared at Li Tianyi and shouted: "You kid is desperate for your life, why don't you hide for a while."
Li Tianyi smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "The town sent me to the mountain village to serve as the village party secretary, just to protect the safety of the people here. If I get out of the way today and you leave, then not only will you be in danger, but also you will be in danger.
People in other villages will also be in danger. That is my dereliction of duty. What is the use of a village party secretary who cannot protect the people in one village? Rather than doing this, I might as well let you be killed!"
Li Tianyi said it in an understatement, but everyone was somewhat surprised when they heard it.
This is the first time many people have heard a village party secretary say that his responsibility is to protect the safety of the people!
Dana Sun kept his gaze fixed on Li Tianyi's eyes. He could tell that the young man in front of him was not lying. This was probably what he was thinking.
Seeing that he couldn't help it, Sun Dana opened the car door again and walked up to Li Tianyi: "Secretary Li, today we have to leave even if you don't stop us, and we have to leave even if you stop us. We don't want to sit here and wait for death. If you don't believe it, just look at it
Look at the people behind me, including old men and women in their 70s and 80s, as well as children waiting for food. Can you bear to watch all the villagers waiting to die here? If everyone leaves here, at least there is a way to survive. You
You said you want to protect the safety of our people, so if you let us go, you are also protecting our safety."
It has to be said that Dana Sun was quite eloquent in using this powerful man's words.
But it was a pity that he met Li Tianyi, who was the president of the student union of Tsinghua University. He was also the sharpest candidate for the first and second debates of the Tsinghua University debate team. He was a man of the hour in the National College Student TV Debate Competition.
.
After hearing what Dana Sun said, Li Tianyi looked at Dana Sun very sincerely and said: "What you said seems to make sense, but in fact it is a kind of sophistry."
Having said this, Li Tianyi looked at the crowd and said loudly: "Folks, I understand what everyone is thinking. What you want is to leave here for safety, but have you ever thought about what would happen if your departure caused the entire town to be safe?"
Hepatitis A epidemic is prevalent, so who are you? You are the sinners of the whole town! By that time, you will not only cheat your relatives and friends around you, but also cheat more innocent people. Do you think that by then,
Can you still have the face to face the fellow villagers who have lost their relatives and friends because of your selfishness? Are you embarrassed?"
Speaking of this, Li Tianyi's voice rose a few more times: "Folks, I, Li Tianyi, am not afraid of life and death and come here today because I want to share the joys and sorrows with you. I want to tide over the difficulties with you. I know that I, myself
I am young, everyone looks down on me, but I want to ask everyone to believe me once. From now on, whoever's family has the worst epidemic situation, I am willing to live in his family, life and death, I am willing to accompany you through it, all I ask is
All the grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters here, for the sake of mercy, leave a way for your relatives and friends to survive, and do your part to prevent the epidemic from spreading throughout Qinglong Town.
.
Maybe someone among us will die due to the infection, but please believe me, I can guarantee that as long as we can get through this epidemic, I will lead the entire village of Guoshan on the road to wealth."
Speaking of this, Li Tianyi's voice became a little deeper: "Dear fellow villagers, I, Li Tianyi, also grew up in a rural area. As long as I can remember, my father went to the mountains to collect herbs all day long to maintain the family's livelihood. Until one day
In order to raise money for my tuition, my father braved the heavy rain to go up the mountain to collect medicine and slipped off the cliff. From that time on, I lost my father. Later, I lost my mother when I was 13 years old.
I scraped together a dime to support my education! They helped me get into Tsinghua University. From that time on, I made up my mind to help the folks in my hometown get out of poverty and backwardness.
In this selection and allocation of students, I was assigned to Qinglong Town and Guoshan Village. From that time on, I regarded everyone as fellow villagers in my hometown and as my relatives. Some people may think that I am exaggerating, but I think
What I want to tell you is that when I saw that it took more than three hours to arrive in the town, I had already made up my mind that when we get through this epidemic, the first thing I should do is
The thing is to build roads! Once the road from our mountain village to the town is built, by then, the fruits all over the mountains and plains in our village can be sold outside. By then, the lives of our villagers will become
Become rich. By then, all the children in our village will be able to go to college!"
After speaking, Li Tianyi's voice was choked up. He was not pretending, but he really felt a little anxious when he saw the poverty and backwardness here. He felt anxious when he looked at the villagers in front of him who wanted to leave the village to fight for a chance to survive.
Heartbroken. However, he couldn't let these villagers leave here now.
The entire scene was silent. Everyone looked at the white-faced scholar in front of them. His clothes were so neat and straight, and seemed so out of place with the clothes of everyone present. But none of them thought that such a young man also came from the countryside.
go out.
The human heart is made of flesh.
In fact, when Li Tianyi refused to back down and got in front of the car and let Sun Dana hit it, many villagers were wavering on whether they should leave. They actually listened to what Li Tianyi said before.
, but at that time, I was still lucky and hoped to leave here.
But at this moment, after listening to Li Tianyi's heartfelt words, many people hesitated and hesitated.
They didn't know whether they should believe this young village party secretary. Because in the past, many town leaders had told them that they wanted to build roads, and even collected everyone's funds and said they wanted to build roads, but in the end, that road
The road has still not been repaired.
At this time, Li Tianyi walked up to an old lady in her seventies, reached out and took the dirty little boy in the old lady's arms and said: "Grandma, come back with me, we can't do it for our own selfish reasons."
, let more people follow us in misfortune."
At this time, a string of snot flowed from the little boy's nose. The little boy skillfully reached out to catch the snot and wiped it on Li Tianyi's brand new and straight suit.
Li Tianyi's face was calm, without any dissatisfaction, he just looked at the old lady with a smile.
Everyone noticed this detail, including Dana Sun.
Dana Sun is a very thoughtful person. Otherwise, he would not be the first person in the mountainous village to drive a car, even a second-hand jeep.
He rolled his eyes and said loudly: "Folks, let's go back. Secretary Li is right. We can't put our relatives and friends in danger just because of our own selfishness, and even if
At this time, we want to go and live with relatives and friends. Our relatives and friends know that we come from a mountain village. Will they be willing to take us in? Even if they are willing to take us in because of their reputation, can we live with relatives and friends with peace of mind?
"
With that said, he got into the car, reversed it, and drove towards the village.
When everyone else saw Dana Sun, they all went back. Especially when they saw Li Tianyi helping the old woman from the Wang family carry her dirty grandson to the village, many people hesitated and then followed her back.
At this time, Sun Jiashan and Wang Changshui, who had been standing behind and watching this scene, saw this, they all breathed a long sigh of relief, and immediately said loudly: "Go back, go back, everyone go back, Secretary Li is right
, our village must work together to get through this crisis. We must choose to believe in Secretary Li."
In fact, the most nervous people at this moment are not their side, but the few police comrades from the town police station who are responsible for sealing off the village outside the village entrance. They are really worried that these villagers will rush out regardless, and in that case, they will suffer.
.
It wasn't until Li Tianyi led the villagers back to the village that they let out a long sigh of relief.
The dark clouds in the sky finally dispersed.
After returning to the village, Li Tianyi sent the old lady and her family directly home, and then joined Sun Jiashan and Wang Changshui who were waiting outside to go to the village committee.
It's said to be a village committee, but it's actually just a few shabby-looking houses. The rooms are not big, but the yards are quite large.
The three of them sat down directly on the stone benches in the yard. Li Tianyi looked at them and said, "Boy, I wonder what you think about our next work?"
Sun Jiashan said: "What else can you think of? Find ways to control the continued spread of the epidemic."
"How to control it?" Li Tianyi asked.
"I don't know." Sun Jiashan shook his head.
Li Tianyi looked at Wang Changshui again.
Wang Changshui sighed and said: "This hepatitis A epidemic came too suddenly without any warning. The infection area is huge, and prevention and control is very difficult. Secretary Li, you are well-informed. If you have any good ideas, just tell us.
Just do as you’re told.”
When they passed the village entrance and persuaded everyone to return, both Wang Changshui and Sun Jiashan were full of admiration for Li Tianyi.
Li Tianyi said: "Well, I have studied the information about hepatitis A virus. This virus is mainly transmitted through food and water, and as long as it is not acute, the mortality rate is not very high, and people who have been infected with hepatitis A virus will get
Long-lasting immunity means that you will not be infected again after you get it. Therefore, if we want to control the epidemic now, we must first find ways to cut off the infection route. In the past few days, we have to go door to door to popularize prevention and control knowledge.
I advise everyone to drink boiled water and eat well-cooked food when eating and drinking.”
Hearing what Li Tianyi said, Wang Changshui showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and Li Tianyi was a little puzzled.
Sun Jiashan explained: "Secretary Li, you may not know that people in our mountain villages have always had the habit of drinking raw water, especially the beautiful mountains and clear waters here, the water source is clear, and it tastes sweet when you drink it. Especially now that the weather is hot
It’s so hot, who wants to drink boiled water?”
When Li Tianyi heard this, his expression became a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Drinking raw water is absolutely not allowed. We must find a way to correct this habit of the villagers. Otherwise, it will be difficult to cut off the infection route of hepatitis A virus from the source.
"
Sun Jiashan and Wang Changshui both showed bitter smiles. In their view, this was completely impossible.
"I'll broadcast it through the loudspeaker in a moment, and then everyone will go door to door to persuade them!" Li Tianyi said decisively.
However, what Li Tianyi didn't expect was that he thought rural work was too simple.
