Famine: I farmed and saved the world

Chapter 196
When the village chief saw Jiang Wan coming over, he straightened up and wiped the sweat off his forehead, and shouted to Dad Jiang, "Where did you go just now? I haven't been able to find any of you, so I'm worried."

Dad Jiang stepped forward and said, "I was worried about the things at home just now. When I go home, how long do I have to dig this fire barrier?"

The village chief looked at the fire that was about to burn over a few hilltops, "If you can dig a little more, dig a little more, otherwise the fire will burn to the side of the hill, and it will be troublesome for Huanzizi to set the village on fire."

"Okay!" Dad Jiang responded, rolled up his sleeves and started to work.

With the participation of a few of them, the progress is much faster than before. They are all very strong. When others dig a shovel of soil, a few of them can dig several shovels.

The shelter was not idle either. Someone started to organize people to fight the fire. According to the fire tonight, the flames could be rolled up to a height of tens of meters. dangerous things,

The houses in the resettlement centers are all made of plastic panels. Once they burn, it is too late to rescue them. Now tens of 10 people live in them. The casualties caused at that time are unimaginable.

Fortunately, the wind direction is blowing into the mountains today, and the speed of burning towards the mountains is not fast, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be no chance of rescue.

The people in the resettlement also realized the danger, which was at stake for themselves and their families, and all of them were very active in putting out the fire.

The Zhengfu was not idle either. Fire trucks, helicopters and other disaster relief facilities were all dispatched to fight with the people on the front line of the disaster.

The dead trees all over the mountain have become the best help for the fire. Coupled with the wind, the mountain fire is spreading faster and faster.
If someone stood on a high place and looked down, the entire mountain range would be a fiery red, and in this dark night, it would be extraordinarily dazzling.

The people in Xiaoquan Village worked very hard to dig the trenches. Some people had big blood blisters on their hands. Every time a shovel of soil was dug up, they bared their teeth in pain, and still no one dared to relax.

Coconut walks around with people and is responsible for guarding. If they find danger, they can remind them immediately that the animals in the mountains are not completely dead. Occasionally, a python, pangolin, etc. will run out.

At home, Jiang Wan simply washed the blood off the coconut, which had been blown dry by the wind.

Coconut wandered around the crowd, looking around dutifully.

At this moment, there was a rustling sound not far away, Coconut instantly became vigilant, stared in one direction, and made a whimpering sound in his mouth.

In the middle of the night, being called by Coconut, everyone in the village felt a little nervous. The village chief asked Jiang Wan in a trembling voice, "What did Coconut find? Even it is so vigilant. Don't be a big beast this time?"

Jiang Wan didn't know either, the sky was pitch-dark, so he couldn't see it clearly, he could only see the direction Coconut was staring at, something was squirming, and it seemed to be quite big, "I don't know, I can't see clearly, I'll go take a look."

The village chief was worried when she saw a girl passing by, "You blame the danger alone, let's accompany you to see it."

Jiang Wan waved her hand, "No, it should be a bigger animal. With coconuts around, no big animal can beat it."

As he said that, he walked in the direction of the coconut. Zhou Ji was really worried when he saw this situation. He put down the tools in his hand and followed Jiang Wan over there.
When the village chief saw Ye Ye and Zhou Ji with her, he didn't say anything more. He always felt that Jiang Wan, a child, would weigh things up and would not be rash.

Jiang Wan cautiously walked in the direction of the shadow, and when she got closer, she could see clearly that there was a person squatting there. He probably squatted on the ground and didn't dare to move because he was afraid of being bitten when he heard the cry of the coconut. Bar.

At this time, the clothes on his entire right arm had been burned into pieces by the fire, sticking to the burned flesh and blood of the arm, and the large area of ​​festering made the scalp tingle just by looking at it.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Wan glanced at his injury and asked.

"It's okay, I don't know if you have any medicine? If the wound is not treated, it will become infected and fester." The man raised his head and asked carefully.

This man's face was blackened by smoke, and he couldn't really see his appearance, but judging from his figure and voice, he should be a young man, and a young man with perseverance.

Burns are the most painful, not to mention this kind of large-scale ulceration. If this is on ordinary people, not to mention the pain and fainting, but also lying on the ground and rolling in pain, unable to find east, west, north and south,

This person is still able to hold back and speak well, but Jiang Wan still hears a trembling in his voice, and it seems that it is very painful to endure.

Jiang Wan didn't immediately answer his words, but kept a two-step distance from him and asked him, "How could you burn so badly, how could you be here in this wilderness?"

Hearing Jiang Wan's question, the man explained seriously, "When we found out that there was a fire on the mountain, we were organized to put out the fire, cut down trees with an axe, and prepared to build a fire barrier.
Originally, the fire was still several mountains away from us. Who knew that the wind suddenly reversed at that time, and the fire all over the sky swept towards us.
We didn't care about anything else and ran quickly, but the fire didn't spread as fast. Seeing that the fire was about to swallow people, I didn't care about anything else, so I found a small cave to hide in.

Who knew that I would still run a step slower, and the flames stuck to my sleeve, and my right arm was burned. If I hadn't reacted quickly and put it out in time, I'm afraid my whole body would have been burned to death. "

"Then how did you escape?" Zhou Ji asked.

"The wind only fell for a while, and then blew back into the mountain range. The fire on my side was much weaker, so I ran out. I didn't find our companions, and got lost on the mountain again. I still climbed to the top of the mountain and saw this side. The village has lights,
And it's relatively close, so I came here. I was thinking of going to the village to find someone for help, but I didn't expect to meet you halfway. "In addition to the panic in the man's voice, there was also some joy in being rescued.

Jiang Wan and Zhou Ji looked at each other. The lights he said should be the lights of his own house, or the lighting of the fire when the villagers were digging the pit.

There seems to be no problem with this statement. At the resettlement center, many people are rescued in the mountains. It is inevitable that accidents and casualties will occur during the rescue process. What's more, this person just wants to borrow some medicine and has no other requirements. There should be no what is the problem.

It's no wonder that Jiang Wan and the others are so careless. They had just experienced such a thing at night, so they would inevitably be more cautious when meeting strangers.

"Come with us." Jiang Wan patted the coconut, signaling it to relax its vigilance, otherwise it would stare at the man and fry all the time.
