Chapter 66: leave

Views:

When the fire broke out, it was not yet four o'clock in the afternoon. Luo Yuan was preparing to have dinner when he smelled a faint smoke. Before he could react, there was a huge explosion downstairs.

The whole building shook violently like an earthquake, and dust fell from the ceiling, staining the food on the table with a layer of mud.

Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi were so frightened that they dropped their chopsticks to the ground and looked horrified!

"What happened outside?" Huang Jiahui said uneasily.

"Let me go take a look!" Luo Yuan said and opened the door. Before he could reach the stairs, he saw a heat wave and thick smoke rising from downstairs. There were faint red flames flying inside. Look at the explosion just now. , I think the gas pipe has also burst.

He choked and coughed repeatedly, and quickly returned to close the door.

Looking at Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi, who had panic on their faces, he looked ugly: "There's a fire downstairs. I'm afraid the whole building will burn down soon. We can't live here anymore. Come with me quickly."

"Ah, how come everything is on fire? Who is so wicked!" Huang Jiahui stood up in confusion: "I'll get my clothes and luggage!"

"Hurry up, the fire is almost burning to the third floor." Luo Yuan said anxiously.

"Ah!" Wang Shishi and Huang Jiahui were so anxious that they broke out in sweat and ran to the bedroom.

Luo Yuan turned around anxiously, then walked to the window and smashed the glass window. Then he quickly walked into the storage room, grabbed a bag of rice and threw it from the window. He threw two bags and felt the heat wave outside. The temperature was getting higher and higher, and he stopped decisively.

He walked into Master Wang's bedroom and saw that she was still packing her clothes: "Don't waste time, get a quilt, cover your head, and then follow me downstairs."

After Luo Yuan finished speaking, without waiting for Master Wang's response, he walked into his bedroom and gave the same instructions to Huang Jiahui who was rummaging through the cabinets.

Huang Jiahui reluctantly put down the things in her hands, picked up the quilt, suddenly paused her hands, and asked with concern: "What about you?"

Because of the hot weather, only one thin quilt was prepared for each bedroom and was given to Huang Jiahui, which meant that Luo Yuan could only face the flames.

"I am an evolved person, these flames can't hurt me yet."

Because time was tight, Luo Yuan couldn't care less about shocking the world. His body seemed to turn into countless afterimages for a while, and he put some important things into a sack one by one and carried them in his hands.

Huang Jiahui was stunned when she saw Luo Yuan's abnormal speed.

"Why don't you leave quickly?" Luo Yuan glared at her, picked up Huang Jiahui and ran outside.

When they reached the door, Master Wang came out anxiously holding the quilt on his back. At this time, the smoke in the room had become thicker, and there was a choking smell in the air that went straight into the throat.

Several people rushed to the door. As soon as they opened the door, a wave of heat mixed with thick smoke rushed into their faces. It was so suffocating that several people coughed repeatedly, with tears and runny noses coming out.

"Ahem, what should I do? What should I do? I can't get down!" Huang Jiahui said with a look of horror.

The main hazard of fire to life is not the high temperature, but the toxic smoke it emits that is the most deadly. Most of the victims died from poison gas rather than flames.

In this condition, it is impossible to go downstairs. With Luo Yuan's speed and physique, he could guarantee that he would come out alive, but it was hard to say for Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi. They might have been suffocated by the smoke before they even got halfway.

Luo Yuan was impatient, and a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he asked Master Wang: "Can your telepathy force the smoke away?"

"Brother Luo, let me try!" Wang Shishi raised his head and said with tears streaming down his face as he coughed.

After so many days of training, Wang Shishi's control of telekinesis has almost become instinctive to her. She is as flexible as controlling her hands and feet. As soon as she has a thought, the smoke around her seems to be swept by an invisible force and ripples like water ripples. , the next moment, the surrounding thick white smoke slowly dispersed, the inside and outside were clearly separated, and an invisible barrier seemed to be formed in the middle.

Several people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well done!" Luo Yuan praised.

Seeing that he could help Brother Luo, Master Wang chin chin slightly, and a proud smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Let's go down and take a look. If the power of mind can push back the smoke, it should also be able to push back the flames?" Luo Yuan said.

Several people walked quickly towards the second floor. There was still thick smoke in the upper half of the stairs, but as soon as they walked around the corner, a raging flame rushed up. If Wang Shishi had not maintained his mental state, I am afraid that the three of them would have died. It has become a human-shaped torch.

However, the flames could be forced back, but the temperature had nothing to do with it. Under the high temperature of hundreds of degrees Celsius, the hair of the three people quickly curled and turned brown.

The three of them retreated to the third floor.

"The temperature is too high and you can't go down at all?" Huang Jiahui touched her pretty face that was red from the heat and said in despair.

"If you don't want to go down, you have to go down. I'm afraid the gas pipe will explode later?" Luo Yuan said a little irritably: "This is the only way now, Master, give me the quilt."

Wang Shishi has complicated feelings for Luo Yuan. He feels like an older brother, and he is always loved and cared for. She was still in her youthful years, and under the influence of her ears and eyes, she had already had a strange reverie about him. Sometimes my mind can't help but turn into Sister Huang, and perform embarrassing scenes with her brother. No matter what kind of situation it is, I already trust him to the core. Even if I am sold now, I will still laugh and count the money. He didn't have any other thoughts about Luo Yuan's words, so he handed it over directly.

Luo Yuan took Wang Shishi's quilt, then wrapped her in layers, picked her up and held it in his hands.

Master Wang screamed in fright. Her body came into contact with Luo Yuan. Even through the quilt, her face turned red. Her face, which was already red, was so red that it was about to bleed. He completely forgot about the danger outside. He stayed in bed and acted like an ostrich.

Next, Luo Yuan didn't ask any questions, and directly grabbed Huang Jiahui's quilt, wrapped it up amidst the other's whining protests, and carried it on his shoulders.

"Quickly, let me go!" Huang Jiahui choked as she felt a heavy impact on the soft part of her heart: "You can't carry it. Just take Master Wang down and leave me alone."

"shut up."

"Master Wang, avoid the smoke and flames, I'm going to start running." Luo Yuan said.

"I know, Brother Luo, Master is ready." Master Wang's whole body suddenly became as soft as noodles. When he came back to his senses, he whispered coquettishly, his voice was so sweet.

Luo Yuan took a deep breath, stepped hard, and rushed down the stairs.

Neither of them was obese, and their combined weight was less than 100 kilograms. It was not difficult for him to carry them, but his body became extremely heavy as a result. He stepped over four or five steps at a time, making a dull sound when his steps landed, making people worried that the stairs would collapse as a result.

"Master, pay attention!" Luo Yuan reminded as he was about to run to the second floor.

"Oh!" Master Wang understood and used all his telekinesis. The surrounding flames seemed to be inexplicably frightened and retreated one after another. Even some gravel and ash were quickly swept away.

At this time, the second floor has been burned to a pulp, the walls are cracked, and a twisted heat wave is surging in the air. The temperature here has already exceeded more than 100 degrees Celsius, especially the marble-paved floor. It became charred black and soft under the barbecue, exuding a faint green smoke. When he stepped on it, it broke into pieces. If his shoes were not already blue-level equipment, they might have melted long ago.

But his shoes and clothes could protect him from the high temperature, but his body could not. The hair on his body curled up quickly under the high temperature, and his skin burned with pain. He didn't dare to breathe at all along the way. Once such hot air was inhaled into his mouth, his entire lungs would be burned.

He ran as hard as he could. Due to the drag of the two of them, his speed was similar to that of an ordinary person. However, it only took so long to run from the third floor to the first floor. It took Luo Yuan more than ten seconds to get there. Ground floor.

He put down Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi, breathing heavily.

The two of them broke free from the quilt, their pretty faces turned red from holding back, and then looked at Luo Yuan, who looked embarrassed and was as burned as a cooked crab. Huang Jiahui was fine, but looked on reservedly and with regret. Wang Shishi was extremely bold and put his feet up and kissed him on the face. He said softly: "Brother Luo, just now Shishi was scared to death!"

"You are not burned, are you?" Luo Yuan was stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal and asked.

"No!" Master Wang rushed to answer.

She looked at Luo Yuan with watery eyes, as if she couldn't get enough of him. Her heart was beating like a deer, her pretty face was blushing, and she thought excitedly: The kiss finally arrived. Unfortunately, I originally wanted to kiss, but at the last moment I was not brave enough. This is not going to work. Brother Luo also has his own The share cannot be given only to Sister Huang.

Huang Jiahui glanced at Master Wang quizzically, feeling a little uncomfortable, but at this time, it was hard to say anything.

"Let's go then. Find a place to live first?" Luo Yuan said.

"Where to live?" Huang Jiahui asked doubtfully.

"Anywhere!" Luo Yuan looked at the nearby residential buildings.

"You're talking about other buildings. What should I do if others don't agree?" Huang Jiahui asked worriedly.

"They will agree!" Luo Yuan said, taking out the zanma knife from the bag, with a cold smile on his lips: "You help me carry the bag, let's go, go over there first, I just threw down two bags The food should last for a few days after we find a place to live.”

Human beings and nature are in a war of ebb and flow. The silence of the city gives plants a rare opportunity to develop in this green forbidden land. In just ten days, the long-lost greenery once again covered this already deserted city.

I saw a green area in the community, and the weeds had grown to more than one meter high. Among them, there were a few solitary saplings, standing out among the weeds, spreading freely like branches of a canopy, competing for the ownership of the sky. Unknown vines continued to extend upwards along a building in front of them, trapping the building tightly, as if it was covered with a green coat.

Luo Yuan walked to the right side of the building and found that the two bags of rice he had thrown down had disappeared. He glanced left and right and saw four guys in raincoats not far away. Two of them were holding a bag of rice each and walking towards a residential building not far away.
