Chapter 9 - Fight for Life
The moment Li Xiang's figure rolled out of the dense smoke, Mo Fei and everyone present broke out in a cold sweat.
Black smoke lingered in the room, Li Xiang could barely make out the bed. The iron frames left behind by the windows, the collapsed black walls, and the rubble everywhere.
Li Xiang could not stay in the same place for too long.
It had already been eight to nine minutes since the spark started to fly around and the smoke started to gather in the surroundings. A very pungent smell filled Li Xiang's nose and mouth, making him feel as if he was suffocating and dizzy.
He had to find the girl's mother immediately. Otherwise, he would have been burnt to death instead of being burned to death.
With a boom, the cracks in the steel frame outside collapsed.
The hearts of the people who were standing outside couldn't help but tighten. The exit to the dorm was blocked, and even if they found the mother of the trapped girl, it was still very difficult to exit.
Everyone could only silently pray that the person inside had good looks and good looks.
Seeing that, Mo Fei's heart dropped, and she hoarsely shouted at the fire officials.
"Move the steel frame at the exit," he said.
Zhang Quanan, who was holding onto Mo Fei's arm, ordered from behind: "Don't use your hands, use a spade cart to speed up."
Enduring the scorching heat beneath his feet, Li Xiang nimbly dodged the broken parts above his head that were falling down, and quickly shuttled through the thick smoke, arriving at a shaking wooden door in a blink of an eye.
He forcefully kicked the wooden door, and as the shaking wooden door collapsed, Li Xiang saw a middle-aged woman lying on the ground.
Seeing that, Li Xiang immediately figured out that this was the bathroom. Seems like the middle aged woman saw that she could not escape, and hid in the bathroom to turn on the shower, waiting for someone to rescue her.
Fortunately, this woman was smart and didn't lose her life. She just fainted.
Li Xiang quickly rushed inside, he tore off a piece of cloth from his clothes and tied it to the woman's face, he then carried her and flew out.
The firefighters outside were nervously moving the steel frame near the exit. While everyone was holding their breath and praying, a figure quickly ran through the thick smoke towards the exit.
"He's out."
It was unknown who shouted, but it caused everyone to open their eyes wide and look at the silhouette behind the steel frame.
"Hurry up and let the people inside out."
When Mo Fei saw the figure, she was pleasantly surprised for a moment. She immediately realized that there was an even more serious problem, that the roof could collapse at any time and that the people inside could lose their lives at any time.
Li Xiang who was inside the steel frame saw the steel frame that had collapsed. He obviously knew what had happened and could not continue delaying any longer, he already had difficulty breathing, if he waited for the fire guards to break through the exit, only death awaited him.
Li Xiang saw that there was still a swaying iron beam attached to the charred room. It could temporarily borrow strength from others, that was enough, just a few seconds would be enough.
"Catch him."
The firefighters who were working hard outside suddenly heard a loud roar from inside and stopped moving. They looked at the shadow on the beams in disbelief.
After Li Xiang shouted to the people outside, he took off his clothes and tied the woman to his body, and after retreating a few metres, he suddenly sprinted forward, stepping on the soil and rubble as big as a small mound, with a big leap, he jumped onto the metal frame on the roof, quickly untied the cloth around the woman, and threw her out with both of his arms.
Seeing Li Xiang's actions, one of the fire guards outside quickly stepped back and raised his hands to catch his.
When the crowd saw that the woman had made it out safely, they were about to cheer when, with a loud boom, the beams inside completely collapsed. The only thing left in the air was a billowing black smoke that shot up into the sky like a long dragon.
Time passed by. The soldiers on the shore were shuttling back and forth between the rubble, each of them looking for something in the rubble.
Mo Fei anxiously looked at the remnants of the ruins, and her heart was filled with mixed emotions.
During the fierce battle on the road just now, she had personally witnessed Li Xiang's cleverness and agility. Her instincts told her that such a strong man would not die.
Even though his heart was this certain, under the circumstances of not being able to find the person, Mo Fei's heart was still in his throat.
Under the dark light, the cold river water seeped into every pore of a person. Like a fish, the upper half of the man was naked, yet he couldn't feel the bone chilling cold at all as he struggled to swim towards the shore.
Li Xiang had already jumped to the ground the moment the roof beam collapsed, and quickly ran back to the window that the dormitory had burned. Time was of the essence, and he didn't care about the heat from the iron frame anymore.
Mo Fei walked over to the ruins with the fire guards to look for traces of Li Xiang, and upon seeing that, Zhang Quanan took out a pair of white grey hemp gloves and placed them on Mo Fei's hands, which had been worn out from rolling over the rubble.
"I can't find it like this either. The entire house collapsed, and the smoke inside was scorching. With him entering for such a long time, even if the beams didn't collapse, the chances of the smoke surviving were very small."
The fire guards at the side saw that the secretary of the Mayor had spoken and did not hold back anymore. They told Mo Fei everything they wanted to say.
"If the building is razed to the ground, it will crush people to death. The pungent smoke will make it difficult to breathe. There are also scorched buildings that will burn people to death. Even if we find it, it might be a corpse."
Mo Fei looked at the concern in Zhang Quanan's eyes as she looked at her and heard the firefighter's lower and lower voice. Without any expression, she calmly said, "All of you are right, but he is not an ordinary person.
Mo Fei inexplicably believed that Li Xiang would not die so easily. She had seen it clearly during the battle on the highway, and his expression back then was only filled with excitement and not fear.
"You're wrong. It's true that Yama Minamiya didn't dare to accept me, but he's afraid that I'll tear down his hall, haha."
A loud and arrogant voice resounded in the gloomy and desolate atmosphere.
The gentle moonlight shone on the rippling river surface. The sparkling river water was like a mirror. With the gentle breeze blowing, ripples appeared on the surface of the river.
The beautiful scenery that should have been like a painting was destroyed by a man whose upper body was lying on a rock by the shore with an evil smile on his face.
Everyone on the shore widened their eyes as they looked at the man with a devilish smile. Their brains were short-circuited and they could not receive any information. Countless questions were asked in their hearts.
"Is this the man who just entered the fire to save her?"
"Is he dead? Or alive? "Why did you come out of the river?"
"He escaped from such a dangerous environment with not a single injury. He really is a god."
Li Xiang thought that he was a very eye-catching person who had entered the stage, but no one cheered him on. He jumped onto the shore without interest, and walked in front of Mo Fei who was smiling at him, and teased: "I never thought that you would understand me this well, you have been attracted by my unparalleled bravery, right?"
Looking at that wretched face, the corners of Mo Fei's lips widened into a smile. She crossed her arms and said with a relaxed voice: "Wrong, I was attracted by your fool's actions."
Not caring about his own safety, rushing into the fire to save someone without hesitation, wasn't that something only a fool could do?
"What, don't you think I'm brave? You should kiss me so excitedly. "
Li Xiang was complaining but before he could finish, he was thrown into the air by the people who reacted, cheering and cheering for him.
Li Xiang who was thrown up into the air, thought that although he did not get a kiss from the pretty girls, getting this kind of cheer and embrace was not bad, as he happily allowed the crowd's hands to harass his body.
"Mom, you wake up, Mom."
Just as Li Xiang was enjoying the treatment of a hero, the girls' wails suddenly broke the cheers.
Li Xiang, Mo Fei and the rest rushed to the ambulance after hearing the noise, only to see her mother lying on the bed, with a pale face.
Many young medical personnel s around were rescuing her.
When Li Xiang looked at medical personnel's age, he knew that those who were sent out were all newbies in the workplace, they were not the backbone of the hospital. Their emergency treatment for the patients was also of a regular nature.
Is in the high concentration of carbon dioxide environment for a long time, the air fluorine content reduces the cause of the oxygenemia, inhibits the breathing and cardiac arrest.
Li Xiang checked the woman's pulse. Her heart had just stopped working, and it wasn't to the point where she was unable to salvage the situation.
"Hurry up and inject her with the stimulant. Lobelin hydrochloride, Nicodemus, leave only one person behind. Everyone else, get out and open the doors."
