Volume 2 Iron Tree Hall Chapter 220 Supporting the Crater
After separating from Songhuang and the others, Huo Cha and his younger brother Huo Kuang returned to their posts and reported to their father, Huo Kuang, the captain of the first guard team at the Huoyun Gathering Point.
When Huo Kuang saw his two sons coming back, he didn't say much to greet or ask, but just asked the two of them to work as a team to patrol the area between the crater and the gathering point.
This is tiring work, because the distance between the two places is not far, once there is something on the other side of the crater, if you need to increase manpower or report something, you need to send someone back to the stronghold, and at this time, if the personnel in charge of the area encounter, they need to run the stronghold on their behalf, to give the compatriots who were originally tired in the crater for a day and a night a little rest.
The Firecloud Gathering Point is located behind the Fire Sideburns Horse, and there are not many dangers, unless the front is occupied, the guards of these rear gathering points are mostly responsible for finding water sources and preparing for the next migration, which is in the nature of running errands and scouts.
Patrolling between craters will be less dangerous, because there are their own people in front and behind, but the danger factor of 1 in 10,000 and 1 in 20,000 is actually about the same, but they need to run errands for more time, so it is said that this is a tiring job.
This is deliberately left by Huo Kuang to the two brothers, Huo Kuang has always been like this to the two sons, especially strict, often let the two sons do the dirty work in the first team, this is not only to show his own selflessness, but also to cultivate and hone the two sons, hoping that they can become talents.
The fire cha and the fire service were also used to it, and they were ordered to carry it out without saying a word.
Although the two are brothers, the relationship is average, not only the half-relationship, but also the reason for the different personalities of the two, one loves to complain and is curious, and the other is stable and mature, and likes to hide the words in his heart, so the two basically do not go together, except for tasks like now, they will go together.
Along the way, Huocha was talking alone, most of the time the topic revolved around his newborn daughter, Huozhi just listened casually, his mind was on his own career, although he was very depressed for a while after seeing Songhuang's power yesterday, but everyone's life is different, and he figured it out, but he just wanted to climb higher and more.
The two patrolled for a while, and Huocha suddenly chatted about Songhuang and the others, with a look of envy, saying that it would be good if he could let his daughter enter the Iron Tree Hall, and the fire servant sneered and mocked: "Let's not talk about Mei'er's qualifications, just talk about your current status, this is impossible." ”
Huocha sighed, he also knew that this was a fool's dream, but it was not illegal to talk about it.
The firefighter then said to himself, "That's why you need to climb higher." ”
Huocha nodded silently, but as if he had thought of something, he approached the fire servant with a smile and said, "Then you have to have a child first." ”
The fire servant knocked his head away, snorted coldly, and said disdainfully: "As long as you are strong enough and powerful, are you still afraid of this?"
Huocha disagreed with this and retorted: "It has to be sincere to you, otherwise you will be cuckolded, and you will be cheaper for other people's children." ”
The fire servant glared at him fiercely, and when the fire was about to be good, he took it and continued to talk about his daughter.
Huocha is like this, sometimes he doesn't talk through his brain, and he says whatever comes to mind, so he doesn't like to talk to him.
The two patrolled for a while, and the firefighter found that there was a clansman in the distance carrying another clansman on his back, walking awkwardly, as if he was very struggling, and the firefighter hurriedly ran over, and the firefighter saw that the firefighter suddenly accelerated his pace, and was stunned for a moment, and then he saw someone in front of him and followed closely.
Just as the fire battle was approaching, the tribesman who carried the man suddenly weakened his legs and fell to the ground, and when Huocha saw the two clansmen, he was surprised: "Isn't this Huo Sheng and Huo Pi?"
Huocha glanced at the direction the two of them came from and said, "You are watching the two of them here, and I will go to the crater to have a look." ”
The firefighter stepped forward to stop him, "Let's carry them back first." ”
Huocha said: "Something must have happened over there in the crater, the leader and those envoys from the Iron Tree Hall are still there, I'll go over and support them first." ”
The firefighter shook his head and said, "That's too dangerous, it won't help you go alone, it's better for us to go back to the stronghold first, and then inform the captain and ask him to send someone to go with us." ”
Huocha glanced at the two compatriots who fell to the ground and fainted, and felt that it was reasonable, and it was not good to throw the two of them here, so it was better to take the two back by the way and let the fire doctor treat them.
After reaching an agreement, the two of them each carried one on their backs, and it only took a quarter of an hour to return to the gathering point, and as soon as they arrived at the gathering point, they saw that the people were in disarray, as if something had happened.
Hocha grabbed a familiar guard and asked, "What's going on?"
The man glanced at the person behind the fire and said, "There are many people in the gathering point who have suddenly fainted, and the symptoms are the same as those you are carrying. ”
The fire officer and the fire officer glanced at each other, and the fire officer asked, "What about the fire doctor?"
The man nodded his head in one direction and said, "In the clearing over there, all the fainted people are concentrated there." ”
When the fire cha and the fire servant came to the place that the man pointed to, they saw that the clansmen had set aside a clearing, which was larger than the open space where Songhuang and the others had rested yesterday, and around the open space there was a familiar team of guards to block the others out, and in the open space lay nearly thirty fire sideburns horses, half of which were children and half were old people, neatly arranged in three columns.
There were only two people standing in the clearing, shuttling through the fainting fire sideburns, one was the fire doctor from the fire cloud gathering point, and the other was his son, and the two were busy diagnosing the fainting clansmen.
Looking at Huo Shi's frowning appearance, Huo Cha whispered to the fire servant: "It seems that the situation is not optimistic." ”
The fire servant nodded "um", then stepped forward quickly, put down the clansmen on his back, opened his eyes astringently, and saw that the two new patients were actually young people, his brows couldn't help but tighten more and more, and asked, "When did you faint?"
"One fainted a quarter of an hour ago, the other is not clear," said the fireman. ”
The fire fox wondered, "I don't know?"
"The other one was brought back by the one who fainted a quarter of an hour ago, and we met him halfway through, so I don't know how long he fainted," the fire cha explained. ”
Huo Shi nodded, this means that there is a fainting for a longer time, and the people who have been fainting and unconscious before the gathering point are all old people and children, which is really easy to understand, after all, the physical fitness of these two types is much worse than that of young adults, but now there are young people in a coma, which proves that the situation has become more and more serious.
At this time, Huo Kuang walked in from outside the sky with his men, and two of them also carried fainting clansmen on their backs.
Huo Kuang saw that his two sons were also there, and asked, "Why did you come back?"
When Huocha saw his father, he suddenly remembered what happened on the other side of the crater, and hurriedly told him about the situation, and after hearing this, Huokuang didn't say a word, turned around and named the names of ten people, and then took Huocha and the two firefighters, and prepared to go to the rescue.
Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd: "This should be up to us." ”
The crowd automatically parted on both sides, and a sturdy firesideburn horse walked out with more than a dozen firesideburn horses, and continued as he walked: "Your team's task today is to guard the stronghold. ”
The fire officer squinted and said, "Fire Tan." ”
Huocha retorted: "Today, the three of you teams are resting, and there is something that should be solved by our team." ”
Huo Kuang glared at his son and said, "Isn't it time to fight for these at this time?"
Huo Tan was noncommittal, and asked rhetorically: "I'm here to help, are you afraid that I will steal the credit?"
The members of the two teams usually don't deal with each other, but at this time, seeing that the captains are arguing, they suppress the resentment accumulated in their hearts, and immediately scolded each other, each with their own reasons, and suddenly the open space became noisy.
After diagnosing the patients, they couldn't continue to investigate, so they had to get up and pull their son left and right to persuade them to fight, but there were too many people arguing on both sides, and the sound of the two people arguing was drowned in the quarrel.
At this time, one of Huo Kuang's subordinates rushed into the crowd and ran to Huo Kuang's side and whispered for a while, and Huo Tan's side also had a subordinate who ran to his side and whispered something to him, and the two looked at each other almost at the same time, and then stopped the quarrel of their subordinates respectively.
Huo Tan laughed angrily: "You and I are fighting, but we are benefited by that Huoxuan, it's really ridiculous." ”
Huo Kuang said: "You and I don't have to fight anymore, each send ten people to support Nan Nizi, in case she can't deal with it, how about it?"
Huo Tan Xindao Huo Kuang is really shrewd, even if he can't get the meat, he has to share a bowl of soup, and he pulls himself, so Huo Xuan can't say anything.
The two then each ordered ten henchmen, Huo Kuang's side naturally included Huo Cha and Huo Gong, and they were led by the two, and Huo Tan's side was led by his deputy.
After arranging the support personnel, Huo Kuang and Huo Tan began to divide the labor, one team was responsible for separating the crowd, and the other team was responsible for gathering the fainted clansmen together, and after a while, the originally chaotic Huoyun stronghold was restored to order.
