Darkness, splitting headache

Ma Ban's ears were filled with buzzing noises, and the soaring blood pressure hit his mind. His eyelids were filled with lead and it was difficult to open. His hands and feet were also out of control. He tried to stand up several times, but fell down quickly.

Go down.

I don't know how long it took, it seemed like a few minutes, it seemed like a few hours, the feeling of heat and cold surged into my body and then slowly dissipated, Mo Ban's consciousness gradually regained consciousness, and he opened his eyes in a daze.

Judging from the situation at the scene, he fell unconscious not long ago. The dike guards had already broken open the blocked door and entered the hub control room. Some went to help the dike supervisor who was knocked to the ground, and some tightened their weapons and aimed at them.

Pockmarked, looking at the tiger with eager eyes.

The beggar has disappeared. He probably jumped out of the window and escaped under the cover of night, but no matter how he escaped, it was meaningless because when he pulled the lever, he left fingerprints on it. Afterwards, the scene was investigated

It will definitely be discovered when the time comes, it will just die early and die later.

The supervisor had also woken up at this time. He covered his red and swollen side of the face and kept sucking in cold air.

After checking the console, a guard walked quickly to the supervisor and said nervously: "Sir, Gate No. 1 has been opened, and the control lever has been violently knocked out of place, causing it to jam. Now it cannot be closed back."

Hearing the sound, Ma Ban stuck his head out of the window absentmindedly. Through the lights on the embankment, he could see that the No. 1 gate had been fully opened, and a large flow of water from the Qingjiang River was rushing towards the north of Danyu City. The turbulent water hit the rocks and splashed water on the way.

Splashing and roaring sounds are endless.

"How's the fire in the fire granary?" Ma Ban muttered and stood up, trying to leave the control room, but was quickly pushed back by the guards who looked at him eagerly.

A guard stepped forward quickly, restrained Maban with skillful grappling skills, and said in a cold voice: "You kidnapped the supervisor and are suspected of destroying the dam. Now you will be arrested and taken to the court to await trial."

Before Ma Ban dared to come here, he had already prepared to risk his life, and had already put life and death aside.

However, now that the situation in the granary was unclear, he still couldn't let go of the stone in his heart, so he struggled hard and said: "You can arrest me, but take me to the granary first to see the situation there."

The guard ignored Ma Ban completely. Seeing that the other party struggled and refused to cooperate, he punched Ma Ban twice until his nose was broken. He twisted his wrists behind his waist and prepared to tie the rope.

"Let him go." Suddenly, the supervisor spoke.

The guard looked over blankly: "Sir?"

"Let him go." The supervisor wiped the nosebleed and said coldly, "He can't escape anyway. With this ugly face full of pockmarks, he can be recognized wherever he escapes. Let him go and see what good things he has done.

Then you will have a clearer understanding of death."

Since it was an order from a superior, the guard didn't have much to say and let go of Maban.

Maban got up from the ground, secretly peeked at the supervisor, a hint of gratitude appeared in his eyes, and then quickly left the control center without saying a word.

The horse he had ridden before was still there. Mo Ban got on his horse and hurried back the way he came.

It came very quickly, but it took a lot of extra time on the way back, because the main road under the gorge had been flooded by the water. Although the water flow was not particularly fast, the horses had to walk very hard, and they would stop and neigh from time to time.

Madara was reluctant to move forward until he cracked the whip.

After finally entering Beicheng, I looked around and saw that the streets of Beicheng were submerged in water, and from time to time I could see floating boards, bags and other debris.

There were no people along the way. The people were all watching the fireworks in Nancheng. The terrain of Danyu City is also high in the south and low in the north, so the water will not rush there.

Ma Ban first visually measured the amount of accumulated water. It must be said that professionals are professionals. The calculations made by the dam supervisor were very accurate. After the flood was released, the water level in Beicheng was almost the same as previously estimated, just above the knees of an adult.

This makes Ma Ban very excited. This level of water can directly submerge the fire on the surface of the granary without damaging the food on the shelves. Wherever there is a residual fire, water can be used to extinguish the fire on the spot. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone.

He looked up in the direction of the granary and thought: The fire should be much smaller now.

Looking at the sky in the distance, the fireworks should have ended. There are no more sparks. The wind direction has returned to normal. There is no longer that unseasonable and strange south wind blowing. Everything seems to be getting better.

However

The sky in the distance was red, and the firelight did not diminish at all, shooting straight into the sky, illuminating those strange hazes, like fire dragons rolling in the night sky.

"How is that possible?" The expression on Maban's face gradually became dull, and a large amount of cold sweat broke out from his forehead. He whipped the horse hard and galloped towards the granary.

The closer we get to the granary, the higher the temperature rises, and the heat wave rushes towards us, making it difficult to breathe.

Arriving at the Eighth Granary, the scene here completely left Maban at a loss.

Is there water? Yes.

The water discharged from the Qingjiang River at Gate No. 1 has spread here. The accumulated water is only much more than that of the outer streets. The surface of the granary has been completely submerged, but

The fire is still burning!

The water flooded the ground where the fire started, but the flames did not attenuate at all. The raging fire floated on the water and spread to other places along the current, like snakes of fire that snaked forward, igniting more areas and burning in the blink of an eye.

With the power of burning the sky.

What's even more frightening is that these flames completely ignore their natural enemies and can actually burn fiercely in the water. The bubbles formed by high-temperature evaporation continue to emerge from the bottom of the water, forming bubbles on the surface of the water. The bursting sound is like some kind of sarcastic ridicule.

.

The supervisors and guards did not know where the water came from, but they all knew how to use it. They were already holding fire extinguishing buckets and struggling to get water to put out the fire, and sprinkled buckets of water on the buildings covered by flames.

However, no matter how much water is poured on it, whether it is one bucket or ten buckets, those scorching flames are like immortal demons. When water is poured on them, they only burn for a moment, and then they burn even more fiercely.

Seeing this, the supervisors and guards who put out the fire were frightened:

"What's going on?! Why can't this fire be extinguished?!"

"Did you pour too little water? Sprinkle more water!"

"It's useless! No matter how much water you pour on it, it won't help! Look, there's still fire burning under the water!"

"Are the gods cursed in Shangdanyu City?"

Panics were heard one after another. Not only did the water flow of the Qingjiang River fail to weaken the fire at all, but it gave the fire a channel to spread along the water flow. The flowing flames surged from the water to every corner of the granary, and even the stone walls used for fire protection were burnt black.

, the internal structure collapsed in pieces.

Boundless black smoke shrouded the sky over the granaries, and everyone could only watch helplessly as the fire completely devoured the eight granaries. The millions of tons of grain stored inside were destroyed by the high temperature, and no grains were left.

Maban slumped on his knees in the water, his pupils were dilated, and the granary that had turned into nothing was reflected in his eyes. Two lines of hot tears gushed out, and he helplessly muttered to himself: "Why is this happening?"
