Liu Guangcai saw the frightened little squirrel and the desperate look in the big squirrel's eyes. His heart ached. He couldn't help but slap himself twice, and then said to the squirrel: "I was wrong. Don't worry and go. I will take good care of it."
If I can survive..."
After saying that, Liu Guang put the little squirrel into his pocket, buried the big squirrel, and continued to chop down the tree.
However, Liu Guangcai soon discovered that it was impossible to continue like this. Downwind, the mountains and forests were burning much faster than he thought. Especially the fires on the tree crowns were burning faster than the wind! It was extremely scary.
Just when Liu Guangcai was about to despair, a cry came out: "The fire is coming down soon, please help, old and young, to cut down those trees on the road!"
At the same time, a familiar shout came from the chaotic crowd: "Guangcai? [Dad?]"
When Liu Guangcai turned around, he saw a large group of familiar faces appearing. They were villagers from their village. At the same time, he immediately saw his daughter, Liu Yu, and his wife Xia Hui.
Liu Guangcai ran over and hugged the two of them.
You don't know until you meet them, but once you meet Liu Guangcai, you suddenly understand what these two people mean to him. He may not be afraid of death, but he is afraid of losing them! This is everything to him.
"Liu Guangcai, get here!" An angry roar sounded.
When Liu Guangcai saw that it was the village party secretary, he quickly walked over and said, "Party secretary, I was wrong."
Snapped!
The village party secretary raised his hand and slapped him: "What's the use of you alone? Can you put out fires? Can you save this mountain fire like you? Are you kidding with your own life? The family doesn't want it anymore?! If you die, they will
What should we do if we are orphans or widowers?”
Liu Guangcai thought that the party secretary would scold him for setting the fire, but he didn't expect the party secretary to say such things.
After finishing the scolding, the village party secretary said: "As for the matter of arson, you will explain it to the government yourself when you go back! Now, get out of here and put out the fire!"
Liu Guangcai finally came to his senses, promised again and again, and was about to run away with a smile.
Liu Yu caught up and pushed a kettle to Liu Guangcai and said: "The party secretary said that you must bring water to fight mountain fires, otherwise people will die. There are also wet towels and hats."
Liu Guang took it, kissed Liu Yu's little face, and then rushed over energetically and joined the fire-fighting army.
"Village chief, this won't work. We still don't have enough manpower. The fire is burning too fast..." the branch secretary frowned.
The village chief said: "I have contacted the nearby villages. They are all on their way here. This will take some time. In addition, the fire brigade is also rushing here. They do not agree with us to put out the fire. Instead,
Let us help observe the fire and provide the latest intelligence so they can design firefighting plans."
The party secretary said: "They are experts. Send a few people to follow them."
The village chief said: "What about what's in front of you?"
The party secretary said: "They are firefighters and have the obligation to put out fires. However, they cannot deprive us, who rely on the mountains and the mountains, to save our parents! I used to be a firefighter. I also participated in the fire in Inner Mongolia that year, so I know what to do.
.This mountain road is a good isolation zone. As long as the isolation zone is widened as much as possible before the fire comes over, the fire will definitely be restricted. Time waits for no one, we can’t wait for them to come over, let’s do it first!”
The village chief said: "Okay!"
At the same time, the fire brigade entering the mountain quickly approached the fire and met Wei Shengli and his daughter.
"Brother, how is the situation ahead?" the captain asked.
Wei Shengli waved his hand and shouted: "The wind is too strong and the fire is too strong. You just don't have enough people!"
"You two dare to come over, so why don't we dare? The fire is burning downwards. Let's chase the fire and put out the small fire behind it, lest the wind direction changes and it burns back," the captain said.
Wei Shengli nodded, greeted another ranger, and together they chased the mountain fire.
Putting out wildfires is different from putting out other fires. It requires skills, especially wildfires in this winter.
The firefighters were well-equipped, but even so, when they rushed over, they only felt a wave of heat hitting their chests, as if they were roasting duck on the grill.
What's even more terrible is that behind you, there is icy cold air blowing behind you, which makes your back feel cold. It is hot in front and cold in the back. It is a combination of ice and fire. Only those who have experienced it will know that kind of discomfort, and outsiders cannot understand it at all.
Wei Xiaolin only felt hot and sweaty. As soon as the sweat came out, it was evaporated instantly. Her mouth was dry and her eyes were a little dizzy.
When Wei Shengli saw that the situation was not good, he quickly took out a kettle and gave it to Wei Xiaolin, saying: "Xiaolin, drink water! Fighting wildfires requires a lot of physical strength, and water evaporates quickly. You must drink more water, otherwise you may faint from heatstroke at any time."
Wei Xiaolin quickly drank water. Sure enough, she felt much better after drinking some water.
As for the fire brigade, they have already started to put out the fire in an organized manner, and there are still people setting up communication equipment. There is no way, the signal here is too poor.
Modern firefighting is like fighting a war. There is no communication and everyone fights alone. That is absolutely impossible.
After the equipment was set up, I heard someone shouting on the intercom: "Everyone, no matter who you are, as long as you are involved in firefighting, please contact us for unified dispatch and unified command!"
When the firefighter heard this, he said excitedly: "The troops are here! We are saved!"
However, it had been two hours since they entered the mountain, and the sun was almost setting.
Wei Shengli also discovered the situation, and at the same time his face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "The sun is going to set!"
The firefighter said in confusion: "When the mountain sets, let it set. Although it is more difficult to put out the fire after dark, there is nothing we can do about it."
Wei Shengli stamped his feet anxiously and shouted: "That's not the problem, the mountain wind here will blow back at night! Escape quickly, otherwise you will be swallowed up by the fire!"
The firefighter was startled and hurried to notify the captain. When the captain and others heard about the situation, they hurriedly ran back with Wei Shengli and others. Sure enough, not long after running, the cold wind in front of them suddenly disappeared, and then a heat wave blew behind them.
Come on, the wind direction has indeed changed!
Wei Xiaolin had always thought that chasing wildfires was not dangerous, as long as she drank more water.
But at this moment, Wei Xiaolin finally understood the danger that Wei Shengli was talking about. Mountain fires are terrifying, and winds are even more terrifying! The world is unpredictable and the wind and clouds are changing. No one can predict what will happen at the next moment. Danger can happen at any time.
Falling from the sky.
As he ran, Wei Xiaolin felt that his legs were getting weaker and weaker. He and Wei Shengli had been in the mountains for a day. They ate some dry food they brought with them at noon. In the afternoon, they didn't eat anything and continued to exercise at a high intensity.
She was already exhausted from running. Her eyes were blurry and she felt light-headed. Wei Xiaolin felt like she was about to faint.
