The fire at No. 1 Wuhuai Street finally woke up the nearby residents.
Many people ran out carrying buckets and basins from their homes, but the little water they had was just a drop in the bucket in the face of the fire. The scorching heat alone made it impossible for the residents to get close.
Some people had already called the fire department, but more people could only look worriedly at the two-story building engulfed in flames and could do nothing.
Suddenly, people saw a flaming figure rushing out from the fire, rolling several times on the ground, and then throwing out another person.
Someone reacted immediately, picked up a bucket and rushed over:
"Quick! Put out the fire and save people!"
Hope lit up in Yue Feiying's eyes again. She watched people running towards Qi Shengzhi one after another, pouring basins of water on him, and she herself was picked up and carried out of the yard.
She struggled to turn her head and look at Qi Shengzhi who was still lying on the ground. He was motionless as if he had completely lost consciousness. His originally fair skin had now turned burnt red, and was covered with wounds, which was shocking to see.
She turned around and cried, begging the kind-hearted person to carry her out:
"I'm fine, don't worry about me. Please save him quickly and send him to the hospital. Please!"
The man frowned:
"Don't worry, there are others to rescue him."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cry of surprise from the courtyard:
"Get out! The car is on fire! It's going to explode!"
Yue Feiying turned around in horror, only to see the group of people who were about to lift Qi Shengzhi all running out in panic. She immediately let out a heartbreaking cry:
"Don't go! Save him!"
But her voice was completely drowned out by the huge noise at the scene. She could only watch as everyone rushed out, leaving Qi Shengzhi lying alone in the yard, waiting for the car next to him to explode at any time.
A severe heart pain came over Yue Feiying, and her eyes went dark and she fainted.
Just at this moment, a tall figure came running from the street corner. It was Lu Zhan who came all the way from the military area!
He saw a raging fire in the distance, which was in the direction of Wuhuai Street. He suddenly felt a strong sense of unease and immediately ran towards Wuhuai Street.
When he ran to the street corner and saw that the fire was at No. 1 Wuhuai Street, his heart stopped beating for a moment, and only one thought remained in his mind -
Where is Shao Jingque? !
From afar, Lu Zhan saw someone carrying someone out of the yard. When he ran closer, he immediately rushed over to take a look. When he found that it was not Shao Jingque, he couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
He pulled someone next to him, his voice trembling uncontrollably:
"Have you rescued anyone else?"
The man pointed at the figure still lying motionless in the yard with a sad face and said:
"There was another one, but the car next to him was already on fire and could explode at any time. We didn't dare to save him..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure flash past him and rushed straight into the yard where flames were rising to the sky.
Lu Zhan took a big step and jumped over the rising fire at the door, rushing to the man on the ground as fast as he could. The tragic scene he saw at first sight terrified him. There was no good meat on the man on the ground.
But the man's figure was obviously a man, not Shao Jingque.
Lu Zhan didn't have time to think more, he picked up the man and turned to run out of the yard.
But just as they ran to the gate of the compound, a deafening roar sounded behind them, and a huge air wave suddenly pushed the two of them several meters away from behind.
The onlookers screamed and dodged. After the car exploded several times and then died down, some people dared to come forward to check on Lu Zhan and the other man.
"Boy! Boy!"
Fortunately, Lu Zhan coughed twice and then propped himself up and sat up from the ground, but Qi Shengzhi next to him was obviously not so lucky. His eyes were closed and he seemed to be lifeless.
The person next to him couldn't help but say:
"Young man, what you did just now was too dangerous! You almost lost your life!"
Lu Zhan didn't have time to listen to what others were saying. He struggled to get up with a blank look on his face, and stumbled towards the yard which had already become a sea of fire.
The people around him were so frightened that they quickly pulled him back:
"Young man, what are you doing?! You can't go in there anymore! Can't you see the fire is so big?!"
Lu Zhan struggled to break free from everyone's hands. His dark eyes stared straight at the two-story building that had long been engulfed in flames, and he muttered:
"Let me go, there's someone inside, I want to go in and save her!"
No one dared to let go, and quickly advised:
"Don't go! The fire is so big, even if there were people inside, they would have burned to death long ago! It's useless for you to go!"
Lu Zhan roared with red eyes:
"She's not dead! Let me go!"
He struggled with all his might, but the crowd was unable to hold him back and were thrown away one after another. They could only watch him rush headfirst into the sea of fire again.
At this critical moment, a clear voice exclaimed from behind:
"Land Battle—"
Lu Zhan, who had already stepped into the courtyard, stopped in his tracks. When he looked back, tears were streaming down his cheeks, which were blackened by smoke.
He remembered that it was the sound of Shao Jingque.
He raised his arm and used his sleeve to wipe his eyes, which were blurred by cigarette ash or tears. The next second, he saw the person he was thinking about squeeze out of the crowd with an anxious look on his face.
In an instant, everything around him seemed to be blurred, only Shao Jingque was so clear and vivid in his eyes.
A smile appeared on his face, and he turned around and strode towards Shao Jingque who was also running towards him. The encounter in just a few steps seemed to have used up all his strength.
Lu Zhan raised his arms and hugged Shao Jingque into his arms. Only when he felt the warmth in his arms did his lost heart seem to fall back into his chest.
"I'm so glad you're okay..."
Shao Jingque hugged him tightly, tears silently falling like rain.
When she heard the loud sirens of fire trucks and ambulances on the street, she knew that something big must have happened nearby. She stood at the window and recognized the two-story building on fire at a glance.
She was so anxious that she didn't have time to say a word to Ding Ling. She rushed out of the door and ran desperately towards No. 1 Wuhuai Street.
Fortunately, when she ran over, she saw Yue Feiying and Qi Shengzhi being carried into the ambulance one after another. Before she could run over to check what was going on, she heard a cry of surprise from the crowd.
At that moment, her heart suddenly skipped a beat. As if by telepathy, she desperately squeezed into the crowd of onlookers and saw the back of the man who was rushing towards the sea of fire without hesitation.
No one knew how many times she had had the same nightmare as today. Every time, she watched Lu Zhan rush into the raging fire. No matter how much she screamed, he never came out. Every time she woke up, the feeling of heartache was hard to dissipate for a long time.
And today, she finally called him.
