Feeling scared

When the village chief saw Jiang Wan coming, he straightened up and wiped the sweat off his head, and shouted to Father Jiang, "Where were you just now? I haven't been able to find you, which makes me worried."

Father Jiang stepped forward and said, "I was worried about the things at home just now. Let's go home. How long do we need to dig this fire zone?"

The village chief looked at the fire that was about to burn over several hills, "Dig more if you can, otherwise the fire will burn to the side of the mountain and sparks will ignite the village and it will be in trouble."

"Okay!" Father Jiang responded, rolled up his sleeves and started working.

With their participation, the progress has been much faster than before. They are all very strong. If someone else digs a shovelful of soil, they can dig several shovels.

The people at the resettlement center were not idle either. Someone began to organize people to put out the fire. According to the intensity of the fire tonight, the flames could be rolled up dozens of meters high. If it really burned to the side of the mountain and the sparks hit the resettlement center, it would be very serious.

dangerous things,

The houses in the resettlement centers are all made of plastic boards. Once they burn down, there will be no time to save them. Now hundreds of thousands of people live in them. The casualties caused at that time are unimaginable.

Fortunately, today's wind direction is blowing towards the mountains, and the burning speed towards the mountain sides is not fast. Otherwise, there may not even be a chance for rescue.

The people in the resettlement center were also aware of the danger, which was related to their own lives and that of their families, so they all actively put out the fire.

The Zhengfu government 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 disaster relief.

The dead trees all over the mountain became the best support for the fire. Coupled with the wind, the wildfire spread faster and faster.

If someone stands on a high place and looks down, the entire mountain range will be a fiery red, which looks particularly dazzling in this dark night.

The people in Xiaoquan Village worked very hard to dig trenches, and some people had big blood blisters on their hands. Every time they dug a shovelful of soil, they grimaced in pain, and still no one dared to relax.

Coconut follows people around, serving as a sentinel. If danger is discovered, he can remind them as soon as possible that the animals in the mountains are not completely extinct. Occasionally, a python, pangolin and the like will run out.

When she was at home, Jiang Wan simply used coconut to wash away the blood on her body, which had already been dried by the wind.

Coconut lingered around the crowd, looking around conscientiously.

At this moment, a whistling sound came from not far away, and Coconut instantly became alert, staring in one direction, and making a whining sound from his mouth.

The people in the village were all frightened when Coconut yelled like this in the middle of the night. The village chief asked Jiang Wan in a trembling voice, "What did Coconut find? Even it is so vigilant. It's not a big beast this time, right?"

Jiang Wan didn't know. It was pitch dark and he couldn't see clearly. He could only see the direction where the coconut was staring. There was something moving, and it seemed to be quite big. "I don't know, I can't see clearly.

I'll go over and take a look."

The village chief was worried when he saw a girl coming over to her, "It's dangerous for you to go there alone. Let's go there with you and take a look."

Jiang Wan waved her hand, "No, it should be a bigger animal. With the coconut, no matter how big the animal is, it may not be able to beat it."

After saying that, he walked towards the direction where the coconut was looking. Zhou Ji was really worried when he saw this situation. He put down the tools in his hands and followed Jiang Wan.

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 consider things carefully and would not be rash.

Jiang Wan cautiously walked towards the direction of the black shadow. Only when she got closer could she see clearly. There was a person squatting there. He might have heard the scream of coconuts and was afraid of being bitten, so he squatted on the ground and did not dare to move.

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 his arm. Just looking at the large area of ​​ulcers made his scalp numb.

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

"It's okay. I wonder 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 so blackened by smoke that he couldn't really see his appearance, but judging from his body shape and voice, he should be a young man, and a young man with considerable perseverance.

Burns are the most painful, not to mention such large-scale ulcers. If this happened to an ordinary person, not only would they faint from the pain, but they would also roll on the ground in pain, unable to find the east, west, north, or south.

This man can still hold back and speak properly now, but Jiang Wan still hears a tremor in his voice, which seems to be in great pain.

Jiang Wan did not answer him immediately. She kept two steps away from him and asked him, "How come you have such a severe fever? Why are you here in this wilderness?"

When the man heard Jiang Wan's question, he explained seriously, "When there was a fire on the mountain, we were organized to put out the fire. We took axes to chop down trees and prepared to build a fire barrier.

Originally, the fire was still several mountains away from us. Who knew that the wind direction suddenly changed at that time, and the fire all over the sky swept toward us.

We didn't care about anything else and ran quickly, but the fire didn't spread as fast as it did. Seeing that the fire was about to swallow people up, I didn't care about anything else and found a small cave to hide in.

Who knew, but I had to run a step slower, and the flames stuck to my sleeves, and my entire right arm was burned. If I hadn’t reacted quickly and extinguished it in time, I would have been burned to death.”

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

"The wind just dropped for a while and blew back into the mountains. The fire on my side was much weaker, so I ran out. We couldn't find our companions. We got lost on the mountain again. We climbed to the top of the mountain and saw this

There are lights in the village,

And we were relatively close, so we came here. I originally wanted to go to the village to find someone for help, but I didn’t expect to meet you halfway.” The man’s voice was filled with panic, but also a hint of joy at being rescued.

Jiang Wan and Zhou Ji looked at each other. The lights he was talking about should be their own lamps, or the fires used by the villagers when digging holes.

There seems to be nothing wrong with this statement. Now, many people at the resettlement center are going to the mountains for rescue. Accidents and casualties will inevitably 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 problem.

This is not to blame Jiang Wan and the others for being careless. They had just experienced something like that at night, so they would inevitably be more cautious when meeting strangers.

"Come with us." Jiang Wan patted the coconut, telling it to relax its vigilance, otherwise it would stare at the man and keep getting angry.
