Chapter 141 Standing Up
Su Ying slipped into the space when the fire started. After changing into fireproof clothing, she came out and brought those who were still breathing but had fainted into the space.
However, as the fire burned, even with protective clothing, she could not escape from the burning cargo, so she planned to leave after the fire was almost done.
But how could Jiang Yang and the others know that Su Ying would be safe.
"Master, the slope behind is on fire, and my wife is still on the slope!" Jiang Yang returned to the yard and explained the situation to Xiao Jin as soon as possible.
Xiao Jin's expression changed drastically, "What did you say? Su Ying is still on the mountain!"
"Yes, someone saw it, and the lady fell into a pit!"
"What, what should we do?" Mother Zhao and the others came over when they heard the noise. When they learned that Su Ying was trapped in a sea of fire, they were so anxious that they were about to cry.
Xiao Jin tightly grasped the armrest of the wheelchair, his face tense to the extreme, "Jiang Yang, take No. 1 and the others to put out the fire immediately, and have Hu Wei and the others mobilize everyone to go up the mountain to put out the fire, and be quick!"
"yes."
No. 1 and the others have already returned. When they heard that Su Ying was in danger, they didn't hope that she was okay at first, but were afraid that something might happen to her. Even they themselves didn't notice this change in their mentality.
Hu Wei also got the news, and he personally led his men to the slope.
Fortunately, there was a branch of the stream near the slope, and everyone went to fetch water to put out the fire.
Chu Yun stood on the corridor on the second floor, tightly holding onto three children who wanted to rush out with him.
"Don't worry, Madam will be fine."
Even Zhao's mother cried and went to get a wooden barrel from the backyard to go and put out the fire, but this time no one stopped her.
Almost everyone took all the tools they could and rushed to the slope like crazy to put out the fire.
Chu Yun lowered his head and looked at Xiao Jin in the yard, his pupils suddenly shrank.
"Your Majesty!"
Xiao Jin stood up from the wheelchair slowly but with an extremely determined look.
"Zhao Neng, you and Chu Yun look after the children in the yard." After Xiao Jin stood firm, he took the first step with somewhat stiff steps.
"Prince, your legs..." Chu Yun's face changed slightly. It was not yet the time that Su Ying said he could stand up!
"Take good care of them!" After Xiao Jin slowly adapted to the situation, he turned around and headed towards the stable without even feeling the joy of standing up again.
"Daddy, Daddy, you must rescue Mommy, Daddy!" Dabao and Erbao held the railing tightly and wanted to follow, but Chu Yun held them tightly and prevented them from moving.
“Wow, mother… I want mother…” Erbao actually didn’t know what the fire on the mountain meant. He just felt the adults’ emotions and became extremely uneasy.
Xiao Jin jumped on his horse and rode out of the yard. The wolf king, who used to lie lazily outside the yard, seemed to have sensed something at this moment, and the entire wolf pack stood guard outside the yard like a solid line of defense.
“Hold it!”
“Ouch!”
Xiao Jin rode away.
At this time, No. 1 and his team had already arrived at the slope. Some were fetching water, while others were using branches to put out the fire. Everyone had a look of determination on their face, as if as long as they persisted in repeating these actions, the fire would be put out.
Mother Zhao and Bai Shuang were all crying as they frantically put out the flames. They were almost unable to open their eyes due to the smoke, but they showed no intention of backing down.
"Madam, please don't let anything happen to you, Madam..."
Hu Wei also arrived with his men. He immediately asked everyone to join in the firefighting. Even Li Laosan and his men brought shovels and spades to put out the fire.
The sky gradually darkened, but the fire still illuminated the slope.
Su Ying was not idle in the space either. After taking a breath, she stood up to check the injuries of the people she dragged in, and also to make sure that they would not wake up in the space.
Many people's bones were crushed by the collapsed earth pit, which was not easy to deal with.
She dragged people into the operating room one by one and treated them.
The fire burned from dusk to dawn, and from dawn to dusk, until the morning of the third day, when the fire gradually died down.
Who could have imagined that a small slope of earth could burn for so long!
By now, everyone was so exhausted from putting out the fire that they could hardly lift a finger, but the fire had not been completely extinguished and Su Ying had not been found, so they could not stop.
Because of the long-term smoking, Bai Shuang and the others' eyes became swollen, looking like two walnuts. Their eyes were so swollen that they could only open a crack.
Mother Zhao took a breath and tried to stand up, but as soon as she raised her buttocks, she fell back down.
Her limbs were so weak that she couldn't move.
"Mom Zhao, you should take a rest..." Bai Shuang felt uncomfortable seeing Mom Zhao like this. Because of the smoke, Bai Shuang's voice became hoarse and the words he spoke were like a broken bellows.
Mother Zhao shook her head and said, "I can't stop for a moment until I find Madam. I need to put out the fire and find someone."
"kindness!"
Xiao Jin covered his face with a wet towel. Every time the fire went out an inch, he searched the mountain an inch. He turned over all the charred corpses, but still could not find the pit that Lian Qiao mentioned.
Qiao Yang walked down the slope with a blackened face and trembling legs.
He also worked to put out the fire without stopping for almost a moment.
“Brother, brother…”
Hu Wei supported Qiao Yang who was about to lose his balance.
Qiao Yang held on for two days, but when he saw Hu Wei, who was also covered in dust and dirt, he burst into tears.
"Brother, do you think Madam Su is okay?"
Hu Wei had a sullen face and said nothing.
The fire burned for so long. Li Yong told me that the pit was at the top of the slope and had collapsed. So much time has passed, and even if Su Ying is very powerful, it is unlikely that she will survive.
The truth was cruel, but Hu Wei still hardened his heart: "Qiao Yang, you know yourself that with such a big fire, the chances of it being okay are slim."
"Impossible! Don't talk nonsense. I tell you, Madam Su is very powerful. You don't even know how powerful she is. Why are you yelling?" Qiao Yang jumped up and roared at Hu Wei.
Hu Wei also hopes that a miracle will happen, but are there really miracles in this world?
Xiao Jin didn’t care whether there were miracles in this world. There was only one thing on his mind now, and that was to find Su Ying!
Because the fire had just been put out, there was still residual heat from the fire on the ground.
The horse walked around once and then refused to move.
Xiao Jin could only dismount and step on the scorched ground step by step to find it.
"The pit, we found the pit, we found the pit."
Xiao Jin rushed over when he heard the sound.
