Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.
Chapter 99 Anle City 11
Shi Jinwei got up to prepare to dispose of the body, and then returned to take a shower.
I felt sticky, hot, and uncomfortable.
Before they could do anything, a loud shout came from outside: "It's terrible! It's terrible! Fire! Fire!"
Thick smoke billowed from behind Shi Jinwei's house, appearing grayish-black in the sunlight.
She immediately ran outside and found that the yard behind hers was indeed on fire.
Many people stood around the doorway, but no one dared to approach, while the homeowner couple stood in front of the house, wailing and crying.
Everyone is short of water right now, so putting out a fire is simply impossible.
They could only watch helplessly as the fire grew stronger and stronger.
Just then, an old woman suddenly squeezed through the crowd, and her expression changed when she saw the couple at the door: "Nannan?"
The couple was stunned: "Nannan? Didn't you take Nannan with you?"
Shi Jinwei turned her head slightly and realized that this old lady was one of the people who had rushed into her house earlier.
When the old woman heard the couple's question, she tried to rush into the house, saying, "You two idiots, our daughter is sleeping in my room."
Not only did the couple's expressions change, but everyone around them did too.
It's alright that the house burned down; there are plenty of vacant houses around here, so you can just find one to live in.
But when it comes to human lives, it's no small matter.
Many people, no longer caring about keeping their water to themselves, said directly, "I still have some water at home, I'll go get it and pour it on myself to rescue the child."
As he spoke, his wife kept tugging at his sleeve, trying to stop him from taking the lead.
But the man ignored his wife's objections and turned to walk back.
Seeing that someone had taken the lead, the others quickly went back to find water.
Shi Jinwei watched as these people, who had previously entered her home like bandits, now united for a child with whom she had no connection.
It makes me realize once again how complex human nature truly is.
The people around were now focused on the burning house, and no one paid any attention to Shi Jinwei when she arrived. Their fear had diminished considerably.
Soon, the first man to fetch water returned.
He carried a bucket of bottled water, ignored his wife's cries and poured it directly over his head, then flushed it down the drain.
Upon seeing this, the homeowner also ran inside.
The already high temperature made the fire inside the house even bigger.
Just as the two rushed to the front door, a beam from the roof fell down, nearly hitting them.
Fortunately, the homeowner managed to pull another person away in time, thus averting a disaster.
The commotion finally woke up the children inside.
Finding that her loved ones were not around and that there was thick smoke all around, she burst into tears.
Those who had doubts about the old lady's words fell silent at this point.
Other people carrying water also came out of their homes.
It wasn't just a basin or a bucket; even combined, they couldn't fill a small water tank, let alone extinguish such a large fire.
Given the current situation inside, they simply cannot get in without putting out the fire.
The cries of the child inside the room struck everyone, and some soft-hearted people couldn't help but shed tears.
The old lady and her daughter-in-law cried so hard they almost fainted.
The people behind Shi Jinwei were the ones who had just broken into her house.
Knowing that her house had water, he pleaded in a low voice, "Young lady, I know you have water, can you help me?"
She turned around and gave that person a cold look; he had been looking at her like she was a demon.
Now I'm not afraid anymore, my eyes are full of pleading.
Their conversation attracted the attention of those around them.
However, everyone knew that Shi Jinwei was not someone to be trifled with, so they didn't dare to approach her and instead watched her cautiously.
The old lady knelt down directly in front of Shi Jinwei and kowtowed repeatedly: "Little girl, please, save my granddaughter. I was blinded by greed before and did something I was sorry for. It was all my fault. I kowtow to you and beg you to save her. If my granddaughter lives, I'll give my life for you."
The couple had no idea what the old lady had been sneaking out to do.
But now that he had heard her words, how could he not understand? He looked at Shi Jinwei with apologetic and pleading eyes.
The woman ran up to her, said nothing, and kowtowed along with the old woman.
Shi Jinwei took a deep breath.
The sounds of the child crying and the fire spreading made her feel upset.
Finally, she turned and left.
She is not the kind of person who repays evil with kindness.
But as she walked along the road, she discovered that the fire was spreading towards her house.
If the fire continues, the houses next door will also suffer.
The place where she lives will also catch fire.
If the whole house catches fire by then, it will be too late to find a solution!
She cursed under her breath and could only begin to put on the protective suit.
As everyone watched her leave, no one dared to stop her, and no one dared to say anything to her.
The old lady and her daughter-in-law cried even more mournfully.
The man wanted to rush in to save the child, but was firmly stopped by the man who had been with him: "Are you crazy? Going in is just suicide."
"That's my daughter, I can't abandon her." The man struggled, his eyes red.
Because of the fire, the temperature here has now exceeded 55 degrees Celsius.
Looking at the raging flames, everyone felt suffocated and desperate, but no one left.
Suddenly, someone said, "Hey, that little girl is back again."
Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Shi Jinwei running back carrying two bottles.
Just as they were about to step forward, Shi Jinwei gave a stern order: "All of you, step back."
Everyone was confused, but seeing her serious expression, they all obediently stepped back.
Wearing protective clothing in the high temperature made her feel like she was in an oven, and she was only able to endure it by sheer willpower.
Seeing that everyone had left the courtyard, she opened a bottle of liquid nitrogen and threw it into the gate.
The low temperature emitted by the liquid nitrogen quickly extinguished the fire, and then another one was thrown in.
In the end, only the room where the little girl was sleeping still had fire that hadn't been extinguished.
It wasn't that Shi Jinwei didn't want to extinguish it, but the fire inside had already consumed a lot of oxygen.
If she were to throw liquid nitrogen into the room at that moment, the little girl might suffocate due to lack of oxygen.
At this point, she didn't try to be a hero and said to the homeowner, "Go in and save them quickly."
The homeowner was still a little confused, but the man next to him reacted.
He took the water from his neighbor, soaked himself, grabbed a wet towel, covered his nose, and rushed in.
The fire in the master bedroom was not large, and the door did not collapse.
It became much easier to rush in and rescue people.
The little girl was unconscious when she was rescued, but her life was not in danger.
The old lady and her family wept with joy, and everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.
Shi Jinwei quietly withdrew from the crowd and went back to change her soaking wet clothes.
After taking a shower and drinking a bottle of Huoxiang Zhengqi Water, I finally felt much better.
On the twenty-first day of the game, the outside temperature remained around 58 degrees Celsius.
Shi Jinwei released liquid nitrogen several more times before the air conditioner started working again.
Fearing the ice in the basement would melt too quickly, she went down to check several times, and only continued to stay there after confirming there were no problems.
At the same time, some of the ice was moved to a space for storage to prevent it from melting.
