Chapter 32 Escape
Liu Zhiwei and Fu Jianke...... I...... Hey, I can't save them. Looking at the attic where the wooden planks had collapsed in half, Wang Fatzi's eyes also flashed sluggishness and shock, and then he sighed helplessly, he couldn't believe that Liu Zhiwei and Fu Jianke, who were still alive before, were buried in the fire like this. Wang Fatzi squeezed his fist fiercely, then released his fist again, closed his eyes tightly and slapped himself fiercely, before turning his head again and starting to help tie his clothes without saying a word.
I glanced at Wang Fatzi, and my mood was a little depressed. Wang Fatzi's melancholy and remorse expression is definitely not pretended. Although he lied to me for a long time before, at this moment, his emotions are definitely not fake.
The screams of Fu Jianke and Liu Zhiwei were still heard in the attic, and I was really outrageous when I heard it. I can't believe that two people were being burned alive less than ten meters away from me at this moment...... But now, the fire is so fierce that we can't even save ourselves, and we don't have time to save people.
Seeing that there was already a lot of fire in the attic less than ten meters away from us, everyone sped up the speed of tying up their clothes. The people present are the three bodyguards brought by me, Wang Fatzi, Tang Dong, Qian Yikang, Gao Minghua and Tang Dong, there are a total of 9 people, and there are more than a dozen pieces of clothes and pants, and if they are bundled into strips, they are indeed 6 or 7 meters long. However, because of the thickness of the clothes, some knots do not feel particularly strong, so the sleeves and trousers have to be torn with a knife to tie them together.
To be honest, when I looked at the clothes connected by clothes on the corridor, it was really incredible.
It stands to reason that I really hate Qian Yikang and Gao Minghua to the extreme, but now, because of the threat of death, we actually took off our clothes together, which is really an unimaginable scene.
Of course, such a scenario can only happen when the situation is critical, and if we can all escape smoothly this time, we will definitely be in a position to fight.
If I don't put Qian Yikang, Gao Minghua, and Wang Fatzi in prison, I won't give up no matter what. I'm not a fool who loses twice.
It took us about five minutes to tie all our clothes and pants together, and by that time the fire in the attic was already terrible, the foul smell of gasoline permeated the whole wooden house, and the terrible hot wind had blown onto the corridor, and even I felt a burning face and beads of sweat even standing on the side.
At that moment, the whole old wooden house made a terrifying roar because of the burning fire, and the sound of the wooden frame structure breaking sounded in every place of the old wooden house, the sound of the collapse of the wooden columns, the cracking of the walls, the cracking of the beams, the collapse of the wooden floor, and the loudest sound that all kinds of wood could produce were all in all corners of the wooden house.
But at this critical juncture, no one would think about any hot noises at all.
Because everyone is in a hurry to escape from this hell of death.
When the clothes and pants were finally connected and lay across the ground, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright. Gao Minghua pulled the "long rope" connected by his clothes and pants, and looked at all of us through the glasses with sharp eyes, and his vigilant eyes fell on the three bodyguards behind Tang Dong first, "Who will come first?"
Whoever comes first.
This is a very simple question, but when Gao Minghua asked this question, everyone present was silent.
It's not queuing for pay, it's not queuing for food in the cafeteria. Who will come first, such a simple question, at this moment, is related to the hope of survival.
For a moment, everyone looked at each other.
I saw Fat Wang looking at me, and I also saw Qian Yikang and Tang Dong's gazes sliding over my face.
Silent.
For a moment, I could only see the eyes of the people around me and hear the sound of the beams breaking behind me.
"Xiaodong, you are still young, Sanxin Company can't do without you, you come first. There was silence for almost five seconds, and finally, Tang Dong still looked at me and suddenly said this to me.
Tang Dong's words moved me to the heart, looking at his solemn expression, but he said such a thing, to be honest, it is impossible for me not to be moved.
It's not a game, it's a matter of life and death. One more minute, one more hope of survival.
"No, Tang Dong, you come first. I said solemnly to Tang Dong, "Today my life was saved by you, and I owe you." ”
Listening to my words, Tang Dong looked at me incredulously, as if he didn't expect me to say such a thing.
"Xiaodong, what are you doing like this?" Tang Dong looked at me with a heavy brow. "You don't owe me anything. ”
"Tang Dong, you go first. I didn't answer Tang Dong, but looked at him and urged him to go down first. "If you don't get down, I won't go down. ”
"Xiaodong, you ...... What the hell are you thinking?"
Tang Dong looked at me with a little anger in his eyes, but I didn't wait for Tang Dong to say anything, so I picked up the long rope on the ground that was connected with clothes, and put one end of the long rope around the gap between the carved carvings of the railing, and tied one end of the rope into two dead knots on the railing.
"Tang Dong, you go down first. JC is coming soon, you go down first, and you can explain to them first. "After tying one end of the rope on the railing, I stood up and looked at Tang Dong and Qian Yikang and the bodyguards behind Tang Dong. "Then the rest of the people, let's talk about it. ”
I let Tang Dong go down for two reasons, one is that I do owe Tang Dong a lot, and the second is that I don't worry about letting Qian Yikang and them go down first, not to mention that if they go down first, they will definitely escape on the spot, I'm afraid that if a madman like Qian Yikang goes down, he will do things that turn his face and deny people, such as breaking the rope and the like. If that's the case, we're all going to die.
"Damn, why do you want to leave us here, right?" Seeing my discussion with Tang Dong, Qian Yikang finally couldn't sit still and couldn't help but scold
"Do you have an opinion? If you have an opinion, ask a few of Tang Dong's bodyguards first. "In the face of Qian Yikang's opposition, I didn't even look at it, with Tang Dong's three bodyguards, Qian Yikang, Gao Minghua and Wang Fatzi couldn't make big waves at all.
Sure enough, when I mentioned the bodyguards, Qian Yikang still looked at the few bodyguards standing beside him with some scruples, and finally gritted his teeth, but he had no choice but to swallow his anger.
"You have a kind. ”
"We have a kind? why do you think we're here today?" I yelled angrily at Qian Yikang, I really wanted to rush up and give this scumbag a few punches, but now that time is pressing, I don't want to make any more trouble.
"In short, Tang Dong, you go down quickly, it will only take more than ten seconds for one person to go down, and we will all go down in a few minutes. Hurry up. I shook the rope in my hand and urged Tang Dong.
"Xiaodong ......" Tang Dong looked at me, he stopped talking, he looked at my Wang Fatzi, Qian Yikang and Gao Minghua behind me, and finally said earnestly, "Okay." Then you guys hurry up. Now that the situation is urgent, let go of the past grievances first. We'll talk about it when we get out. ”
In the end, Tang Dong patted me on the shoulder, showed a smile to me in a hoarse voice, and said: "Xiaodong, it is really a blessing for the company to have a person like you. ”
After speaking, Tang Dong smiled at me, I rarely saw Tang Dong show such a sincere smile, he patted me on the shoulder, then took a deep breath, and took the other end of the rope in my hand.
I, Tang Dong, wrapped the rope around my waist, and then tied a fierce knot in his abdomen. In the end, he finally turned around, stepped on the railing with one foot, and then carefully climbed out backwards, Tang Dong was very cautious in the whole process, grasping the edge of the railing with both hands, instead of directly grasping the rope. After all, before going smoothly, no one knows if the rope is strong enough, in case the rope is loose or broken, then Tang Dong is afraid that it will be in trouble.
"Tang Dong, be careful. I stepped forward to help Tang Dong grasp the end of the rope tied to the railing, Tang Dong looked at me gratefully, and then alternately exerted force up and down with both hands, the whole person slowly attached to the wall under the railing, and after passing the edge of the railing, he began to grasp the rope with his hands, loosened it little by little, and the whole person descended little by little.
This wooden house is very high, compared to the average low house, it is indeed a few meters high, although it is the second floor, but the height is more than 7 meters, if you accidentally fall from this height, it is not impossible to break a bone or die of serious injury.
Watching Tang Dong descend little by little, my heart simply jumped to my throat, for fear that Tang Dong would suddenly fall if something happened at the slightest point, and then fall down heavily.
So watching Tang Dong descend, I didn't even dare to come out of the atmosphere, I just watched quietly, and I didn't dare to speak to disturb Tang Dong, in case he was distracted, it would be completely over.
In the past, I had only seen this kind of scene in movies, when watching the stuntman in the movie slide down the rope quickly from the sky, and I just thought it was exciting and simple, but now, I can't get it excited at all.
Tang Dong grabbed the rope, using his left and right hands together, his body was also sliding down little by little, although the speed was very slow, but it was always getting closer to the ground little by little.
At the same time as Tang Dong descended, I also felt that my body was getting hotter and hotter, and the fire in the attic was slowly approaching, and I didn't know how long it would take for the fire to burn into the corridor, whether it would be a minute or two minutes?
One meter ...... Two meters ......
Tang Dong finally descended to a height of about 5 meters from mid-air, and seeing him getting closer and closer to the ground, my tense heart was also a little relaxed.
As long as you drop another two meters or so, even if you jump directly, you won't have an accident......
However, it backfired.
Just when Tang Dong descended to a height of 5 meters, Tang Dong was a little frightened and anxious and cried out: "Xiaodong, pull me quickly!"
"What's wrong!" Tang Dong's sudden voice startled me, and I hurriedly leaned on the edge of the railing and looked down, but this look almost stopped my heart.
Just when Tang Dong descended to between 4 and 5 meters, there was a fire in the window under the railing.
The fire came out of the gap inside the wooden house, apparently because the fire inside the first floor was so strong that the excess flame came out of the gap.
Apparently, we didn't just notice the flames under the railing.
And it was the flames that drilled out that directly burned Tang Dong's "long rope".
As a result, it can be expected.
The flame stained the long rope like a dye, and the long rope tied with clothes caught fire in an instant, and then the next second
Broken.
At that moment, time really stood still.
My heart stopped beating a half-beat.
Then, just half a beat when my heart stopped, Tang Dong's body fell straight down.
Then, with a snap, the whole person fell directly to the ground.
"Tang Dong!!"
I screamed on the railing like crazy, but after falling to the ground, Tang Dong's whole body was lying on the ground softly, his body squirming slightly, but he couldn't stand up, because he was facing away from me, I didn't know what happened to Tang Dong at all.
"Tang Dong, are you ...... Is there anything wrong?!"
"Xiaodong...... Hurry up and take the rope back!" "Just a short moment when I was in a daze, the fat man suddenly ran over, grabbed the rope, and pulled the end of the rope up before the fire burned down the rope.
Wang Fatzi's words woke me up from the stunned Tang Dong's sudden fall, and I pulled up the rope with Wang Fatzi without saying a word. Looking at the raging flames on the rope, my heart went from being still to beating wildly.
Because, in just a few seconds, a third of the rope was burned off.
"Hurry up, hurry up!" the fat man stared at me and urged me to take it, and I desperately pulled the rope back.
But at this moment, another accident happened.
A desperate surprise.
Just when Wang Fatzi and I pulled the rope up, the wooden corridor under our feet actually began to break from the middle!!
