Right now, they didn't even know where they were.
Where was the target location? It was such a big jungle. They could be hiding in any corner, but where could they hide in such a sea of fire?
The two of them gradually separated from the firefighters and continued walking forward. Their home was inside, and the road in the middle of the jungle was especially rugged. They had lived here for more than half a year, but when they stepped on it again, they actually felt frightened.
The sea of fire spread, and the choking smoke was nearby. When the fire touched the clothes, although the heat proof suit wouldn't burn, it was really hot.
"Can you still hold on?" No matter how they walked in, they were still far away from their usual living area. The fire was too big. It was unrealistic to walk in the direction of the fire. They would definitely die here.
Feng Ling nodded her head casually and did not say more.
Li Nanheng slightly forced Feng Lin to stop. At the same time, he turned around and blocked her. He lowered his head to see that the little woman seemed to have no idea thatshe had stopped and was still walking forward mechanically. She had to stop because she bumped into his arms.
"Focus and don't think about anything unrelated. We can build a house again. Let's change the route. They don't know where we built the house. Under normal circumstances, the first person to enter the jungle would go in the first direction. Which path looks more obvious? I remember that there's a small path near that side." Li Nanheng held her in his arms, coaxing her while trying to distract her.
Feng Ling came back to herself. She had come here to find Qin Qiu and the others. Of course, saving them was more important.
However, when she walked in and saw the jungle gradually being swallowed by the sea of fire, she subconsciously wanted to go back and take a look. She didn't know what the overwhelming emotions in her heart were, but when she looked at the trees that were swallowed by the fire, she thought of the home she and Li Nanheng shared, the home he built for her bit by bit.
She was sad, but not sad.
She braced herself and nodded, trying to sound as calm as possible."Yes, there's a high possibility of that."
If they were Feng Ling's parents and it was their first time in a jungle and they knew that it was impossible to drive, what would they do?
Of course, after walking in, they would find a path that looked the most like the road, and then they would continue to search every place that looked beautiful and safe, pulling them on a safe direction.
Li Nanheng decisively brought Feng Ling over. Without any hesitation, he stopped searching around.
She took the original route back and walked toward the path that he had already guessed. In the thick smoke and terrifying sea of fire, she finally saw Mr. Feng who was unconscious under a tree.
Finally, she saw someone. When Feng Ling saw the person lying on the ground, she thought it was Qin Qiu. She endured the burning heat around her body and the sweat on her body and rushed over. However, when she turned him over, she saw that it was a man. She had rushed over too quickly and probably hadn't seen his face clearly.
Seeing that it was a man, she paused. At this time, Li Nanheng came over and said in a low voice, "Since Mr. Feng is here, it means that Mrs. Feng should also be nearby. The husband and wife will hide from the fire source and walk around here. They won't be too far apart."
Hearing that this person was Mr. Feng, Feng Ling composed herself and glanced at the middle-aged man who had fainted.
Li Nanheng stepped forward and helped the man up. He grabbed one of the man's hands and put it on his shoulder, helping him to stand up. However, Mr. Feng had clearly fallen into a deep coma and was unconscious. He was completely unaware of this small movement. Even if it was just a little reaction, he was completely unconscious.
Li Nanheng knew very well that there were trees all around. It was easy for them to catch fire and produce a large amount of smoke. He and Feng Ling, who were wearing insulation suits and gas masks, felt very uncomfortable in less than ten minutes, not to mention how much smoke Mr. Feng and Mrs. Feng had inhaled.
Typically, in a fire, fire was not fatal, but smoke was the real cause of death.
After finally finding one of them, Feng Ling was in a better state of mind. However, because the smoke here was too thick, she almost did not hold any hope to see if Mrs. Feng would be able to leave this place alive. Even if she brought the two of them out, there was almost no hope for them to survive.
She quickly looked around, and the thick smoke affected her vision. Feng Ling narrowed her eyes and rushed forward. When she saw Mrs. Feng, Qin Qiu, who was lying on the ground about ten meters away from the tree, her heart skipped a beat. She quickly ran over and helped Qin Qiu up. Mrs. Feng and Mr. Feng were in the same situation and were unconscious.
Time could not be delayed any longer. Feng Ling carried Qin Qiu on her back without any hesitation. She supported her body with one hand and decisively took off the mask on her face with the other.
Li Nanheng turned back to see her movement and frowned."Do you want to die?"
Feng Ling didn't answer but just glanced at him. She didn't speak but carried her out.
Li Nanheng saw that she was uneasy and thought that she was confused and worried, so he didn't stop her from doing such a stupid thing. Instead, he took off his mask and walked over to put it on for her. When Feng Ling raised her eyes to look at him and wanted to ask him what to do, she saw the anger in his eyes and was speechless.
"Don't waste time. Let's go, " Li Nanheng ordered coldly. He carried the middle-aged man who had been leaning against him and quickly walked out with Feng Ling.
Following the path under the sea of fire, they rushed out. From time to time, she would hear the sound of a tree falling down from the flames.
Ten minutes later, they came out.
They had been in there for too long, so long that XI Base's rescue helicopter had already arrived. Ignoring the objections of the firefighters, they rushed in to look for them. A group of people were in a deadlock outside the jungle when they suddenly saw two people rushing out. They saw that each of them was carrying a person on their back. Seeing the two figures rushing out under the flames, the members of XI Base were used to such a scene. They were the first to react and rush forward to receive them.
The firefighters stared in disbelief at the two people who had come out and then at the burning jungle. They found it unbelievable!
