Xu Taiping and Atu looked at each other, quickly put down the bottles and ran out the door.

The shouting came from the left, so Xu Taiping and Atu looked to the left.

More than a hundred meters away, bursts of fire could be vaguely seen.

"No, the sound of fireworks just came from that direction too!" Ah Tu shouted excitedly.

"Hurry up and take a look!" Xu Taiping said and ran towards the left.

Not long after running, Xu Taiping could see the flames clearly.

The roof of a two-story building on the side of the road was burning.

A group of young people stood not far away, looking here in horror.

Downstairs of the two-story building, people kept running upstairs with basins of water. However, because the two-story building was made of wood, the fire burned very quickly.

"What's going on!?" Ah Tu rushed in front of the group of young people and asked, staring at his son Xiao Mo.

"I, we don't know either. We are just setting off fireworks here, and we don't understand why they are burning over there!" Xiao Mo shook his head repeatedly.

"Why are you just standing there stupidly? Go get water and help put out the fire!" Ah Tu shouted.

Xiao Mo came to his senses and ran to get water.

"No, this fire can't be put out at all!" A man stood downstairs and shouted excitedly. The fire on the roof was getting stronger and stronger. Before, it was only the roof of the second floor that was on fire. Now the entire second floor has started to burn. got up.

Xu Taiping looked around with a serious face and found that there were wooden houses next to this wooden two-story building.

In order to maintain the antique look, almost all the houses in Chiyan Town are made of wood, and only some restaurants are made of cement.

"Where's the firetruck? Hasn't the firetruck come yet?" someone shouted.

"The firetruck is on the way, everyone, hurry up and put out the fire!" someone shouted.

Without any hesitation, Xu Taiping turned and ran across the street, found someone to get a washbasin, filled it with water, and ran towards the burning two-story building.

Water was constantly poured on the two-story building, but the house made of wood burned too fast. No matter how much water was poured on it, it could not stop the spread of the fire.

"Hurry up and save the property of other houses!!" Xu Taiping shouted loudly.

Although only one building is on fire now, these buildings are very close to each other. According to Xu Taiping's estimation, the fire will spread soon.

With such a fire, Xu Taiping alone could not play a big role.

People kept running out of their homes on the street and joining the fire-fighting army. The residents next to the house began to run back to their houses and move valuable things out of their houses.

In just a few minutes, the entire two-story building began to burn. At this time, the flames in the building finally spread to the next door.

The edge of the house next door also began to burn.

At this time, the mayor, secretary and people from the police station also rushed to the scene. Seeing that the second house was already burning, Wang Baoquan shouted loudly, "Which house is still occupied? Come out quickly, this fire cannot be suppressed." Stay there, don’t cause any casualties!!”

"That person, what are you doing?!" Chen Jianshe suddenly pointed at a person and shouted.

I saw that man rushing toward the second small building that was already burning.

"There is another 10,000 yuan under my bed. I have to go up and get it!" the man said anxiously, and then rushed into the second small building.

At this time, the second small building was also burning, and a gust of wind blew from nowhere, increasing the intensity of the fire.

"Come out quickly, why are you asking for money? Are you stupid?!" Wang Baoquan shouted anxiously.

No one responded to him, and the person who rushed into the second small building seemed to have disappeared.

Looking at the billowing smoke, Xu Taiping probably guessed something, and he rushed towards the small building.

"Taiping, what are you doing?!" Ah Tu shouted.

"Save people!" Xu Taiping's voice sounded, and then Xu Taiping's figure disappeared into the two-story building.

"Who are you trying to save? It's such a big fire!!" Ah Tu stamped his feet anxiously, but it was no use. Xu Taiping had already ran into the small building.

Everyone looked nervously at the two-story building. The building was already surrounded by fire. The billowing smoke kept pouring out from all the windows. It was impossible to see the situation inside the building. At the same time, bursts of snapping sounds came from inside the small building, as if the wooden building might collapse at any time.

"It's over, two of us have to die!" Wang Baoquan said desperately.

"Dead, this Xu Taiping is dead!" A person standing closer shook his head and said.

With such a big fire and smoke and no oxygen bottles, whoever gets in will die.

Is Xu Taiping dead?

Apparently not.

Xu Taiping held his breath and rushed up to the second floor in one breath.

There were flames everywhere, and nothing could be seen on the entire second floor. Moreover, this kind of wooden structure house had many rooms and a very complicated layout.

After Xu Taiping went up to the second floor, he was a little confused because he didn't know which way to go.

Since you don’t know, you can only search room by room!

Xu Taiping rushed into the room on the left and saw no one, then exited and rushed into the room directly in front, but still saw no one. Then, Xu Taiping rushed into the room on the right. At this time, Xu Taiping just saw someone in the room.

The man was lying face down on the ground and appeared to be unconscious.

The billowing smoke shrouded the entire room, which was very scary.

Xu Taiping rushed to that person's side and hugged him regardless of whether he was alive or dead.

At this moment, there was a sudden crunching sound under Xu Taiping's feet.

Xu Taiping's body sank suddenly, and he fell directly from the second floor to the first floor.

With a loud bang, Xu Taiping fell into the first floor holding the unconscious man, and was instantly surrounded by raging fire. At the same time, the surrounding beams and other things were bent and collapsed. sign.

"Holy shit!" Xu Taiping couldn't help but exclaimed, then his feet suddenly accelerated and he rushed out.

boom! !

There was another loud noise, and the roof of the entire building collapsed directly, and the burning wood hit the ground heavily.

It can be clearly seen from the outside that the entire building has completely collapsed.

The billowing smoke instantly enveloped the building for several meters.

The people around him quickly retreated back and outside the thick smoke.

"It's over, dead." Wang Baoquan said.

"Hey!" Chen Jianshe sighed.

The people watching around also sighed. In their opinion, no one could survive in this situation.

At this moment, a figure with fire suddenly appeared from the thick smoke.

The figure quickly grew in size. In less than a second, the figure burst out of thick smoke and appeared in front of everyone.

The clothes on this man's body had been burned in many places, and his whole body was pitch black, just like a black man.

Holding a person in his hand, he stood in front of everyone, and then gasped rapidly.

"It's Taiping!" Zhou Jun shouted and rushed towards Xu Taiping.

The people around him let out bursts of incredible exclamations.

Xu Taiping ignored everyone. He put the unconscious man in his hands on the ground, and then raised his hand to feel for his pulse.

The pulse was very weak, almost nonexistent.

Xu Taiping raised his hand, overlapped his hands, pressed on the other person's chest, and then pressed hard several times.

"Cough cough cough!!"

The man suddenly coughed violently and coughed up a lot of black, sticky phlegm.

Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief and stood up straight.

"Taiping, you scared us to death!" Zhou Jun rushed to Xu Taiping's side and said excitedly.

"Don't say that, put out the fire first. The firetruck won't be here for a while. The fire is going too fast. We need to build an isolation zone, otherwise all the houses in this area will be burned down!" Xu Taiping looked serious. He stared at the fire scene and said.

Next to the collapsed building, a third house also burned.

"Xu Taiping, are you okay?" Wang Baoquan ran to Xu Taiping's side and held Xu Taiping's hand tightly.

"What can happen to me? Don't just stand there, put out the fire quickly!" Xu Taiping said.

"There's nothing we can do about this fire. It's too strong. All the fire extinguishers in the town have been used up. We can only wait for the firetruck to arrive!" Wang Baoquan said.

"The firetruck may not arrive at any time. Let's make an isolation zone first!" Xu Taiping said.

"Isolation zone? How to do it?" Wang Baoquan looked at Xu Taiping in surprise.

"Demolish!" Xu Taiping glanced at the few houses that were not burning and said, "Counting from the first burning house to the fifth one, demolish the fifth one. This way the speed of the fire will be It will slow down, and after the houses are demolished, an isolation net can be formed. Even if these demolished houses burn down, it will be easier to put out the fire because the location of the fifth house has become lower!"

"Demolish the house? How to demolish it?" Wang Baoquan asked.

"Leave the matter of demolishing the houses to me. You go and get water ready and wait by the fifth house. I will demolish the fifth house now!" Xu Taiping said.

"Should I ask the owner of the house about this?" Chen Jianshe asked.

"It's already this time, what the hell are you asking? If we don't demolish it, all the houses in this area will be gone!" Xu Taiping said angrily.

"But this is private property. Didn't you say that private property is inviolable?" Wang Baoquan said.

"Are you telling me this again?" Xu Taiping grabbed Wang Baoquan's collar and asked, glaring at Wang Baoquan angrily.

"I...I didn't say anything." Wang Baoquan quickly shook his head.

"The house is mine, feel free to demolish it, as long as it can prevent the fire from spreading!" A person next to him came over and said.

When Xu Taiping heard this voice, he turned around suddenly and saw a familiar face.
