Chapter 3: The Adventures of the Fire Brigade
After the comet, the government department found through remote sensing satellites that there was a fire source in the deep mountains of the Qinling Mountains, with an area of 4 square kilometers.
The higher-level government asked the local fire organization to arrange for the rescue organization to carry out fire extinguishing operations, because the fire source area is not very large.
According to real-time information, the fire area at the fire source has not expanded rapidly, and an advance team is needed to quickly understand the local situation and control the fire source to a certain extent.
Director Wang of Taibai County immediately arranged for a 12-person rescue team led by Xiao Panzi (known as Xiao Fatzi) to rush to the rescue immediately.
The order was issued, Pan Zi immediately convened everyone to hold a mobilization meeting in the morning, Pan Zi told the team members about the local fire situation, arranged a division of labor, and set off at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
So Pan Zi asked the team members to go back to say hello to their families and leave on time in the afternoon.
Xiao Wang of the material management office came to report to Captain Xiao, the materials have been arranged, and asked where the materials were delivered, Captain Xiao turned on the projection map on his watch, looked at it and said, "Put it in Shifang Village, let the materials go first." β
"Received", after Xiao Wang replied, he immediately arranged for the drone to drop the material.
(In 2028, the Internet of Things technology has been fully matured, all the materials have been networked, and the materials department will send the decoding number information of the materials to the smart table of the team members, and the team members can see all the information, status and his coordinates as long as they open the projection map of the smart table, which brings great convenience to the field rescuers and improves efficiency)
Captain Xiao looked at the projection map in the office alone for analysis and research, and found that the terrain here is very complex, with many cliffs and cliffs, and it is in a primitive deep forest state, and the internal structure cannot be seen at all.
He secretly thought to himself that this departure might have to be leisurely and not let the team have any accidents.
After eating at noon, the team members also arrived one after another, everyone put on their flight equipment, waited for the instructions to go, Captain Xiao finally emphasized an action arrangement, and finally gave the order "Let's go!",
Just listen to the sound of "Boom, Boom, Boom!", and everyone will fly into the sky in unison, and they will arrive at their destination in about 10 minutes.
Everyone soon flew to the material delivery point, and everyone set up communication equipment, put on fireproof clothing, and brought advanced fire extinguishing equipment to prepare for action.
Captain Xiao looked at this Shifang Village, there was no one in this Shifang Village, all the houses were occupied by the creepers, and it was already gloomy when they saw it during the day, and they might still need to be stationed here at night,
Captain Xiao's back was a little cold, and he always felt that something was wrong, and he couldn't say what was wrong.
There was no time for him to think about it, so he and everyone hurried to the disaster point, they walked through a forest, waded through a stream, and arrived at the scene on a small hillside, and the scene surprised them.
The source of the fire is a complete circle, there is no grass in the circle, only a piece of scorched earth, no burning roots, no charred animal carcasses, the inside is particularly clean, there is only blackened scorched earth, it feels like the stones have been burned, and then look outside the circle, a piece of life, the trees are lush, there is no trace of fire, the dividing line between the circle and the outside of the circle is extremely obvious, as if it has been cut by something, it is even more obvious after they walk in, there is a tree with a diameter of about one meter has been cut from the middle, there is nothing on one side, and half of the leaves on one side have not fallen, and it feels like it is still aliveγ
"Boss, this is too strange, how can I never see such a fire scene when I am older," said Wang Qiang, member 1.
"Yes, yes, boss, you stand here and take a look!" said Team Member 2 Liu Yi, and Captain Xiao walked up after hearing this.
"Does the boss feel strange, it doesn't look like that or something, oops, it's choked" Team member 2 Liu Yi said,
The other team members also came up, standing on the big stone slab and looking down,
"You mean Taijitu, right?" said Captain Xiao.
"Yes, yes, it's Tai Chi gossip that Tai Chi, it's too similar. Team member 2 Liu Yi said,
The other team members also shouted: "It's just, it's too similar"
Captain Xiao wondered if this was too evil, 'Who would be bored to do this prank?' he asked himself.
"Brothers, don't care what's going on with him, let's go down and have a look first," Team Xiao shouted,
So everyone put away their mobile phones and stopped taking pictures, and immediately lined up to follow Captain Xiao inside.
The team members talked about the comet last night, even if they didn't see it with their own eyes at night, they heard about it in the morning news, as if this was the place where the meteorite fell, and some people said that it would be the work of aliens, just like the crop circle, everyone you and I talked all the way, and soon everyone reached the edge of the circle.
Captain Xiao gave an order: "Everyone check whether the fireproof clothing is put on, and immediately put on gas masks!
The team members unanimously replied, "Roger!",
Everyone immediately took action, the team members took fire extinguishing devices, looking for a place with an open flame, but everyone looked for a long time, but did not find an open fire, but found that the soil on the ground was still hot, Captain Xiao also began to report the situation to the headquarters,
"Headquarters headquarters, please answer if you receive it!"
"I received it at headquarters, and 01 please speak"
"Fire 01 team, 10 minutes ago arrived at the source of the fire, after inspection there is no open flame, the danger is basically cleared, but the ,,,, signal is broken?
"Damn, why is the signal broken, you check your communicator to see if there is still a signal, it can't be that my equipment is malfunctioning."
"Report to the captain, I don't have a signal either"
"Mine has no signal either"
All the team's communication equipment has no signal, everyone tried it with their mobile phones and there was no signal, they encountered this situation for the first time so many times, because their equipment is military-grade, and the communication is very stable, even if the weather is bad, it will not appear in the open field The signal is cut off.
Team member 2 Liu Yi scolded: "Fuck, what's the situation today! What strange things have happened to us, we won't really meet aliens!"
"Come on, wouldn't it be better for you to meet an alien female ghost later!" said Team Member 5 Lu Shan,
"This can be had!" replied the team member Xiao Er,
"Hahahaha" everyone is happy,
But Captain Xiao didn't feel right, he had an indescribable feeling, he always felt that something was wrong, Captain Xiao looked at the time, 3:45, the time was not very late, but it felt that the sky was getting darker and darker, and it felt like it was about to get dark, and then looked around, it seemed to be fogging,
"Listen to my order, all the team members gather over, set off to the big stone slab, and return to the camp, all the personnel follow up and can't fall behind!
β1ββ2β.....
"Let's go!" What they didn't expect was that in just a few minutes, the whole place was covered with thick fog,
"Turn on the lights, pull the rope, all the team members pull the rope and don't fall behind!"
"Boss, didn't we run into a ghost, this day has become too fast, and I can't even see my five fingers when I reach out."
The team members also began to get hairy in their hearts, things were too weird, Captain Xiao kept walking forward with his intuition, and walked for more than 20 minutes, according to the normal situation, he should have arrived in the woods.
They opened the spatial map, but there was no positioning signal, only showing that they were staying in the scorched earth.
"Boss, no, shouldn't you have arrived at the big slate a long time ago?"
"Well, I don't feel right either, let's take a rest on the spot, don't run around, this place is a bit evil, I'll turn on the fixed linear motion guide, let's get out of this strange circle first. β
It was getting dark, Captain Xiao called everyone, followed him, walked for another 20 minutes, and finally reached the edge of the scorched earth, but there was still no communication signal and no positioning signal, probably due to the influence of the comet's magnetic field, all the signals were not very stable in the past two days.
"Boss, we don't seem to have arrived at a big slate, how can we go? Team member 4 Ah Hai asked,
"Just follow me, it's not that my brother is bragging, my brother hasn't seen anything, it's not a thing!" Captain Xiao replied with a smile,
Because he did have a plan to return to the big stone slab, and out of this strange circle, his heart was also steady. It was already dark, the night in the deep forest was particularly dark, and always accompanied by a cool mist, there were many people who were lost in the deep mountains and old forests, and they were generally not killed by some wild beasts, but killed by the poisonous mist miasma after the night came, so the ancients generally had to run out of the forest before dark.
For experienced outdoor adventurers or old farmers, when they can't get out of the forest, they will find a tall tree in the forest and hang themselves on the tree to sleep, so as to reduce the damage of poisonous fog as much as possible.
Of course, there is no need to think about this problem for their firefighting team, they are not only experienced but also well-equipped, except for not bringing flight suits, other equipment is called everything, and the poisonous fog is normal air in front of their gas masks.
"Boss, you won't be bragging, such a big forest, there is no signal, how to go out, or wait until dawn tomorrow to leave, anyway, there are enough supplies" Team member 2 Liu Yi said.
"Let's get up, Xiao Er is still with me for your guts, damn me shame!" Captain Xiao replied,
"Brother, it's not right for you to say that, when has my second child been timid, isn't this anyway, the fire is extinguished, let's have an outdoor activity here!" said team member 2 Liu Yi.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let me tell you, how did we get to the big stone slab, do you remember what the shape of this fire pit is, it's a circle, right, and it's not particularly huge, we can actually reach the big stone slab as long as we walk along the edge of this circle, and we won't get lost, understand?" Captain Xiao said proudly,
"I see."
"It's still the boss!"
Everyone seemed to be a lot more relaxed, because they thought that they would be able to get to the base immediately and get a good night's sleep, which was a happy thing! Because although everyone did not go to extinguish the fire with great intensity, they had been carrying dozens of pounds of equipment for almost an afternoon, and they had not rested much, so they were naturally a little tired.
We walked for a long time, and found a path leading to the deep forest, and obviously people or animals walked here, everyone looked up in the direction of the road but could not see anything, the fog was too big,
Suddenly, someone shouted, "There's a ghost!"
Team member 5 Lu Shan shouted, "Look over there!",
Everyone immediately swept their eyes, only to see two green luminaries floating in the air, still moving in the air, which scared everyone a lot, because the green light was cold, like a light from hell.
Although Captain Xiao is also furious in his heart, after all, he has seen so many worlds.
"Don't panic, everyone, it may just be the eyes of wild animals, we have met them before!" Captain Xiao whispered,
"Have you ever seen such big eyes, and they are still so far away?" said Team Member 5 Lu Shan in a low voice.
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and follow me, this place is not suitable for a long time!" Captain Xiao said softly, everyone began to walk back quietly, everyone was sweating in their palms, they didn't know what kind of monster was on the other side, they just wanted to leave this ghost place quickly, but they couldn't be in a hurry,
Everyone walked quietly, and I don't know who stepped on a brittle branch, only to hear the sound of "pop", which tore the quiet night apart, everyone's nervousness was released at once, and they only thought about escaping for their lives, the scene was chaotic for a while, and Captain Xiao still shouted: "Don't panic!
He took everyone and started running, but there were a few fewer team members behind him, and he didn't have time to care about so much, let's go back to the camp first, and then the rest of the people followed Captain Xiao and soon ran under the big stone slab, and the green eyes were gone.
"Little two"
"The fifth is not here?"
"Did you see the starlings?"
Only then did everyone realize that they had separated the three partners,
"Boss, what are we going to do? I've never seen a monster this big, I can feel his breathing. Team member 3 Zhang Bing said tremblingly, obviously not relieving himself, still in a nervous state,
"Don't think nonsense, they may just be scattered, they may come over in a while, we must rush to the camp as soon as possible, contact the headquarters, ask for support, change into equipment and come to them again, now our fire-fighting equipment is useless, do you understand? Don't rub it off, hurry, let's hurry up!"
After that, everyone immediately got up and left,
"Everyone must follow, don't get separated, we will be at the camp soon"
Everyone ran for a while and found that there was a faint light in front of them, Captain Xiao made a gesture to ask everyone to stop first.
"What strange things are coming together today, there was no light when we left, everyone be careful!"
"I heard voices coming from the camp. β
"Yes, yes, I heard it too," everyone said softly, so they slowly went over to see,
It turned out that the headquarters found that the signal was broken, and they were worried about what the team members were in danger, so the director flew to the Shiwu Village camp with a team of people, and there were a few medical personnel and a strange young man.
