Chapter 79 Mountain Fire Rescue (2)

Everyone agreed in unison, especially a few young people.

Caitou said to Tang Zeshen, "Leave it to me."

"There are already people from the forest police, armed police, and village security teams. You are leading the most junior people, so be careful."

"I know."

The scorched smell in the air became heavier and heavier. Su Xiaoye looked up and saw that the smoke column was a little thicker. Several protruding tree tops were on fire, and dark red flames were looming.

They followed everyone up the mountain and walked on the green path at first, which was trivial to them.

When you get right below the fire point, start climbing.This is real mountain climbing, with no road at all.A path that had been trampled by people's feet loomed in front of them, which was opened by the people who had gone up before.

I walked up with one foot high and one foot low. Not only did I feel stinky, I had difficulty breathing. Something got stuck in my eyes, and I couldn't stop crying.Everyone put on masks and walked forward hand in hand.

It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid, but Xiaoye was still calm.She herself was surprised. When did her mental quality become so good?
Lin Yan couldn't stand it anymore. Tears welled up in her eyelashes. Xiaoye took her right hand and felt that it was as lumpy as ice and her palm was all sweaty.

Suddenly, Lin Yan's left hand slipped out of Wu Qingquan's hand in front of her, and she screamed and fell heavily to the ground.Xiao Ye quickly helped her up, and Lin Yan covered her knees and cried: "It hurts! It hurts!"

Director Cai hurriedly came up to check and rolled up his trouser legs. Lin Yan's snow-white calf was scratched with a large scratch as big as a slap. The skin on his knee was broken, and dark red blood oozed out.

"Director Cai, can I not go? My feet hurt so much." Lin Yan cried.

"Can't you hold on?"

"I really want to go, but I can't. It hurts."

Caitou hesitated and said, "We won't force you. Can you go down the mountain by yourself?"

Lin Yan took Lu Zheng's hand and asked softly: "Lu Zheng, can you accompany me down the mountain?"

"I'm a man and I can't leave."

Lu Zheng refused bluntly, and Lin Yan's face turned ugly.

At this time, there was a sudden noise on the top of the mountain, as if a wild animal was breathing heavily above everyone's heads, and all the leaves were rattling, bringing a creepy feeling.

Caitou's expression changed and he stood up: "No! The wind direction has changed!"

Anyone with experience knows that the biggest fear of forest fires is the change of wind direction.A change in wind direction will bring about a change in the intensity of the fire, causing it to resurge in minutes.Moreover, the wind helps the fire. The fire can burn as high as two or three people and can take away a person's life in an instant.

Caitou's hometown, Huai County, is a place with three times denser forests than Ning County, and he has long been experienced in fire prevention and fire every year.Scanning around, I saw a slanted earth ditch ten meters further up.

It was a drainage channel dug by the villagers when they planted eucalyptus trees. Later, all the eucalyptus forests were acquired for the construction of green roads. No one planted eucalyptus trees anymore, and the drainage channel was abandoned.

Moreover, the eucalyptus forest is known locally as the "land-destroying forest" because it requires water and fertilizer. Even if the fertile land is planted with eucalyptus trees for three to five years, it will become barren.

This is the case in this area. Tangled trees and shrubs grow everywhere else, but only some thatch grows on this side.

Caitou commanded: "Quick, let's go over quickly!"

Everyone moved closer to the drainage ditch. Lin Yan was still crying, but Xiaoye couldn't pull her away.She cried: "My feet hurt and I can't walk!"

Xiaoye is famous, how long has it been, and this young lady is still seeking death!
She rounded her hands and slapped her across the face: "If you want to cry, go back and cry. I'm afraid you just stayed at the foot of the mountain!"

Damn it, they are already on this mountain, why are you doing it!
Lin Yan covered her face, her eyes widened in fear, tears hanging on her eyelashes.

Su Xiaoye said: "Let's go quickly!"

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, the heat wave was rolling in front of him, and the fire was burning from the tree.

Lin Yan got up on the ground and ran to the flood drain.

The pain in her feet did not affect her speed at all.

Caitou is like a general, commanding with determination.

"Qingquan, Azheng, you go weeding."

"Everyone stood in a row with their backs to the drainage ditch and opened fire!"

The wind turned and the fire fell from above, like a suddenly expanding monster rushing down from the mountain!I haven't seen the shadow of fire yet, but I can already feel the heat, along with the smell of burnt hair.

Xiaoye lit a lighter and lit the newspaper.

This lighter was very useful. In such a strong mountain wind, her hands shook like chaff, but she still lit it up.Wu Qingquan was not so lucky over there. He used a one-dollar plastic lighter, but it went out several times. He even burned his hands and cursed his mother and threw them around.

Xiaoye said: "Use mine."

Wu Qingquan took it and asked strangely: "You don't smoke, how come you have a lighter?"

"My friend put it here for me."

Without asking any questions, everyone lit the fire one by one with Tang Diwei's lighter, quickly burned out a clearing, and huddled back to back, waiting for the fire to reach them.

The wildfire is coming!

The destructive force swept across the earth, and the sky quickly turned black and gloomy. Su Xiaoye watched the leaves in the distance zoom and curl. First, white smoke came out, and then crackled and burned.

It's frightening, the power of nature is so terrifying and powerful!
The wildfire passed in just a few minutes.

These few minutes are longer than several lifetimes...

Fortunately, the wind stopped and there was a roar of people in the distance. Xiaoye opened his eyes and saw a large number of people coming down from the mountain and running towards this side.Everyone knew that the Fuzhen Town Government team was in danger and came to the rescue as soon as possible.

There was the sound of propellers overhead, and the fire helicopter arrived, dropping water bombs.The monster that was still raging just now was quickly subdued, and Director Cai organized everyone to disperse to light the fire.

He asked Lin Yan: "Can you still leave?"

Without saying a word, Lin Yan carried a broom and walked to the west of the fire point with Lu Zheng and Wu Qingquan.

Su Xiaoye said: "She should be fine."

Director Cai nodded: "It's okay. Come on, you and I will be together. Let's put out these fire spots quickly."

After working with my arms for a whole day, my back ached.Someone should stay on the top of the mountain overnight to prevent a resurgence.

This was a matter for men. Lu Zheng led the team and led the women down the mountain to disperse.

The village women from the security team came here on their own motorcycles, and when they got to the foot of the mountain, they dispersed to cook.They were laughing and joking while walking, as if what they had just experienced was not a wildfire, but a trip to catch a movie.Xiaoye stuck out her tongue and secretly admired the strong nerves of these women.

"Chinese women seem to have a rising power, and nothing can crush them."

"Lu Zheng, can you please stop paying tribute to my idol?"

"Wang Zengqi is also my idol."

Su Xiaoye raised her fist and hit Lu Zheng on the shoulder. Lu Zheng dodged it with a smile, then returned and stuffed something into her hand.Xiaoye was stunned, Lu Zheng said: "Give it back to you."

It turned out to be Tang Diwei's lighter.

"This belongs to Brother Tang, right? It's a military product, awesome."

"Well, he gave it to me when I went out today, and I asked him about it. Fortunately, I have this lighter."

"You have to go back and thank him on our behalf."

Xiaoye smiled, with a hint of pride rising in his chest.

Tang Diwei helped her again.

……

When Su Xiaoye opened the door and entered the house, Tang Diwei thought that a wild man had entered the house.
