Chapter 2321 Rescue

2321

"I received a call for help from a friend. She is in that direction. I am going to rescue her now. When I come back, if you need help, let me know!" Xu Taiping said to the firefighters in front of him.

"In that direction? We also received an alarm just now. Is it a girl named Lin Youran? If so, I'd like to trouble you. We just received an alarm. Several outing students were besieged in this direction. We Get over now!" the firefighter said.

"The name is Lin Youran, let's save each other first, and then we'll talk later." Xu Taiping said, heading towards the reading pavilion. At the same time, several firefighters drove fire trucks into the streets full of people on both sides. It is the way up the mountain from wildfires.

It was summer at this time, and although the moisture content of the vegetation was relatively high, the fire burned quickly and vigorously. The blazing flames raised the surrounding temperature by at least ten to twenty degrees.

To go to the reading pavilion, you need to walk a path more than 100 meters long. When Xu Taiping came to the path, the surrounding path was already full of flames.

The choking smoke forced Xu Taiping to hold his breath. In a fire, the most harmful thing is not the flames, but the smoke. Many people who died in the fire were choked to death by the smoke.

Xu Taiping held his breath and rushed directly into the more than 100 meters long path.

The hot flames grilled Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping's hair started to smoke in the blink of an eye. However, Xu Taiping's speed was too fast. As soon as his hair started to smoke, he had already crossed the more than 100-meter-long path and finally arrived at the reading pavilion.

In the reading pavilion, Lin Youran was lying on the ground, her body trembling.

"Youran!" Xu Taiping shouted.

Lin Youran raised her head, looked at Xu Taiping, and shouted with a trembling voice, "Director Xu!"

Xu Taiping picked up Lin Youran on his back and said, "Stick close to my body and I will take you out!"

Lin Youran quickly pressed her body tightly against Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping accelerated and once again rushed across the path surrounded by flames.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Taiping had led Lin Youran out of the sea of ​​fire, and then Xu Taiping ran all the way down the mountain.

Not long after, Xu Taiping met several firefighters he had met before.

"The fire is too big, you should evacuate quickly!" Xu Taiping shouted to the firefighters. At this time, the mountain fire had been completely ignited. In the face of such a mountain fire, any efforts to put out the fire were of little significance.

"Reinforcements are coming soon. We can't let the fire burn like this, otherwise the fire may spread to the campus!" a firefighter shouted.

"But you will be in danger if you do this." Xu Taiping shouted.

"It's okay, Mr. Xu, you go down the mountain first and leave it to us!" the firefighter shouted.

Xu Taiping pondered for a moment, then nodded and quickly headed down the mountain with Lin Youran on his back.

Xu Taiping was very fast. Not long after, Xu Taiping carried Lin Youran to the foot of the mountain and met Chen Wen and others.

"Keep an eye on her!" Xu Taiping handed Lin Youran to Chen Wen.

"What about you, Director Xu?" Chen Wen asked.

"I'll go take a look at the mountain to see how the situation is." Xu Taiping said.

Just when Xu Taiping finished speaking...

Boom!

A loud noise came from the mountain.

Xu Taiping looked towards the mountain. The flames at a certain location on the mountain suddenly became more intense! The raging fire turned Xu Taiping's entire face red.

"What exploded?!" Chen Wen asked in horror.

Xu Taiping didn't say anything and rushed up the mountain.

"Director Xu, you have to be careful." Chen Wen shouted loudly, but at this time, Xu Taiping had disappeared in front of Chen Wen.

Mountain.

The fierce mountain fire is still burning. Although several fire-fighting helicopters have flown in the sky, when facing the raging mountain fire, these fire-fighting helicopters are of little use. Feel.

Xu Taiping came to the place where he saw several firefighters before.

These firefighters have cleared out a fire zone.

Fire breaks can prevent the spread of fire. This method is generally used to fight wildfires. The wildfire is first controlled within a certain range and then put out.

"What are you doing?!" Xu Taiping couldn't help but asked when he saw the firefighters in front of him climbing onto the fire truck.

"The brothers who went to rescue the people just now are trapped. We have to go there now!" A fire fighter said to Xu Taiping.

"Where?" Xu Taiping asked.

"That!" the fire fighter pointed to a road next to him.

That road leads directly to the deepest part of the mountain, where the fire burns most vigorously, and if Xu Taiping remembers correctly, an explosion just occurred in that direction.

"There just was an explosion there!" Xu Taiping said.

"We heard it too. Brothers and the masses are all there. We must go there!" the fire fighter said as he got into the car.

Xu Taiping quickly followed and got into the car.

"The fire in that place is too big. You guys will die if you go there!" Xu Taiping said excitedly. He was very aware of the power of wildfires, especially in the most intensely burning place, with dozens of people and several vehicles around him. Firetrucks going by, it doesn't make much sense at all.

The fire fighter ignored Xu Taiping. He started the car and drove forward. At the same time, several other fire trucks also drove toward the mountains where the fire was burning the most.

"I'm not kidding you. If you continue to drive forward, you might not be able to get out! You brothers and the trapped people, I can just go and save them," Xu Taiping said.

"This is our duty." The fire fighter sitting next to Xu Taiping said, "Mr. Xu, you are a hero. You can do many amazing things. You can even save everyone else by yourself, but... we We can’t place all our hopes on one hero, our responsibilities are here, and we must do it!”

"Even if you pay for it with your life?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yes." The fire fighter nodded.

Looking at the young man in front of him who was in his early twenties at most, Xu Taiping saw determination on his face, determination, and a heart that was willing to sacrifice everything for the benefit of the people.

Xu Taiping suddenly thought of those young people who were also in their early twenties, but spent all their time, energy and even money on chasing stars.

It's not that Xu Taiping looks down on those who chase stars, but in Xu Taiping's view, the country's real future will not lie with those young people who chase stars, but with these people in front of them.

It is precisely because there are more and more such people in China that China has become increasingly prosperous over the past hundred years.

Xu Taiping raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder and said, "I'm with you."

"Thank you, Mr. Xu!" The fire fighter nodded.

The cars drove for seven or eight minutes and finally stopped.

"They're right over there!" an instructor at the scene pointed to a burning forest nearby and shouted, "Quickly, put out the fire and find a way out!"

Groups of firefighters got out of their vehicles and rushed towards the raging fire with various tools.

In wildfires, simply sprinkling water no longer plays a big role. Various other fire-extinguishing tools are generally used to extinguish the fire.

The area from where the car was parked to where the people waiting for rescue were was covered by wildfire, which prevented the fire fighters who came to rescue before from coming to this road. Therefore, the fire fighters who came to rescue before sent a distress signal to let People came to support.

"You put out the fire first, I'll go inside and take a look!" Xu Taiping said, rushing directly into the sea of ​​​​fire.

Although the flames did some damage to his body, Xu Taiping was confident that he could stay in the sea of ​​fire for a while, relying on his super endurance and recovery ability.

When Xu Taiping rushed into the sea of ​​fire, the flames instantly enveloped his whole body.

His clothes were instantly on fire, as was his hair.

The flames all over the sky continued to burn Xu Taiping's body.

No wonder those trapped can't escape. With such a big fire, most people may be burned to death halfway through time travel. Even if they are not burned to death, the thick smoke is enough to make people lose consciousness. Once they lose consciousness here, what will happen in the end? There is only one outcome...death.

Xu Taiping rushed forward quickly. After rushing for more than a hundred meters, a huge open space suddenly appeared in front of Xu Taiping.

It can be clearly seen that the open space was cleared artificially. Because of this open space, the fire did not cover everything. The open space became one of the few places without fire. And above the open space, a group of people are sitting together.

This group of people was very strange. About half of them were only wearing vests and shorts, while the other half were wearing firefighting uniforms, fire and smoke masks, and oxygen bottles.

When Xu Taiping came here, these people were all lying on the ground.

Smoke goes upwards, so when encountering a fire, lowering your height is the best choice.

Although there was no fire here, the raging fire around them had caused many blisters on the bodies of those wearing tank tops and shorts.

When they saw Xu Taiping, those people wearing firefighting uniforms and masks shouted excitedly.

"Director Xu!"

"Director Xu!"

When he heard the cries of these people, Xu Taiping was stunned.

Logically speaking, only Jiangyuan University students would call themselves Director Xu, but these people wearing firefighting uniforms in front of them should be firefighters, so why would they call themselves Director Xu?

"Mr. Xu!" A man in a vest also shouted.

Xu Taiping took a look at the man and found that he was actually a middle-aged man.

Looking at the people wearing vests around him, Xu Taiping discovered that these people were all young and middle-aged people, all in their twenties and thirties.

At this moment, Xu Taiping understood everything.

These people wearing vests and shorts are firefighters, and those wearing firefighting uniforms are students from Jiangyuan University!
