Chapter 1595 Fire Fighting (Part 2)
"Don't worry about the current situation. Hurry up and take people to drag the trees on the ground to the mountain. When all the trees are dragged to the mountain, I will arrange other things for you to do."
After hearing the captain's words, Liu Baozhu nodded, and then he immediately led people to move the trees.
An hour later, all the trees that Lu Xiaoxiao kicked down were moved to the mountain. When the captain saw the fire getting closer and closer to them, he said to everyone present: "I know everyone is very tired now, but the fire is getting closer and closer to us, and there is no time for us to rest.
So I implore everyone to hold on a little longer and try to dig a trench when the fire reaches the middle of the mountain."
"Captain, just tell us how to dig. We know the seriousness of the matter." Liu Jiaan immediately took the lead after hearing the captain's words.
After hearing what Liu Jiaan said, everyone agreed with what Liu Jiaan said, and then they all urged the captain to tell them how to dig the isolation ditch quickly.
When the captain heard what everyone said, his eyes turned red. In order to prevent others from noticing his abnormality, he quickly wiped his face with his hands, and then began to tell them how to dig the isolation ditch.
More than 20 minutes later, the isolation ditch on the hillside was dug, and the fire also spread to the hillside. Seeing this, the captain immediately led his men up the mountain.
After they reached a safe place, they all looked nervously towards the middle of the mountain. When they saw that the fire had spread to the isolation ditch halfway up the mountain and stopped spreading further, they all shouted excitedly.
When Lu Xiaoxiao saw that the fire spread to the middle of the mountain and no longer spread up the mountain, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, in her previous life, she had heard others how to put out the fire on the mountain, otherwise Tianshui Village would be in big trouble.
"Captain, your idea is really good. You can control such a big fire with just two simple methods. I really admire you." Liu Jiaan looked at the captain and said.
"Haha... I'm glad that you admire me. It's a pity that the two simple methods you mentioned were not my ideas."
"What? You said those two methods were not thought up by you?" Liu Jiaan asked the captain in surprise after hearing the captain's words.
"Yes, those two methods are definitely not what I thought of."
"Then can you tell me who came up with those two ideas?"
"No, the person who came up with those two solutions doesn't want anyone to know her identity." Since the captain had promised Lu Xiaoxiao not to tell anyone about the matter, he naturally would not tell anyone that the person who came up with the solution was Lu Xiaoxiao.
After hearing the captain's words, Liu Jiaan couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect there are still people who are so indifferent to fame and fortune. If other people in the village had come up with those two ideas, they would definitely make a fuss and let everyone in the village know that they were the ones who put out the fire on the mountain."
"People are different. The more powerful people are, the less they value fame and fortune, because those things are too easy for them to get, so they don't care that much."
Liu Jiaan nodded after hearing what the captain said, and then he thought of the broken trees on the ground, so he looked at the captain and asked, "Captain, you are not going to tell me that the trees on the ground were also knocked down by the person who came up with the idea, right?"
"I can't answer this question for you, because the tree had already fallen when I reached the halfway point of the mountain."
"Really? Liu Jiaan asked in disbelief after hearing what the captain said."
"Of course it's true. Do I have to lie to you?"
