Chapter 41: Fighting Fires
In the middle of the night, the autumn breeze blew slightly several times, sprinkling the coolness on the body to the world little by little. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the "water" building, the small yellow flames became shorter and shorter, and in the blink of an eye, they sank into the hot candle oil, making the surrounding light gradually dim.
Nine lazily moved his body a few times, sat up awkwardly, rubbed his eyes and walked to the first floor, and then pulled out a new candle from his pocket and lit it in its place and inserted it into the wax oil. But now it was very sleepy, and the wax oil was still so soft because of the burning, so that as soon as its front feet left, the candles and its hind feet fell and fell, and the terrible thing was that many of them were still there!
After changing the last candle in Li Wenyun's bedroom, he leaned against the base of the bed and began to sleep again.
But before I felt that I had slept well, it was hit a few times on the top of its head. Nine Confused frowned angrily, opened his eyes to see that they were Seven Confused and Eight Confused, and saw that they were calling themselves very anxiously, so he got up and stepped out with big strides.
As soon as he left the door, he saw Seven Confused and Eight Confused lying on the floor together, leaning forward head to head, opening their mouths wide and blowing something. When it got closer, it realized that it was blowing fire! It scratched its head and couldn't believe it, because the candle had just been changed, why did it go to the ground?
Jumping down the stairs, it saw a lot of fires downstairs, all on the wooden floor, and immediately frightened, and hurriedly leaned down to aim at the flames and blew desperately, but its own gas was small, and it took a long time to extinguish a fire. After blowing away the fire in the inner hall downstairs, it turned around and scanned the outer hall, and when he saw that the rest of the balls had come to help, he happily stood there resting. After a while, it saw that the rest of the balls had straightened up and gasped for breath, and their foreheads were covered with beads of sweat, so they drooped their heads again.
"That's not right!"
Suddenly, the nine confused shouted,
"It's late at night, and it should be dark in this building, because the candles have fallen, but why can I see you all from afar?"
When the little fools standing in the outer hall heard this, they also felt abnormal, and then they rolled their eyes with the nine fools, and suddenly noticed the fire that was already burning at the foot of the door between the inner and outer halls!
"Oh no, what to do! It's on fire!"
Five Fools and Six Fools were a little scared.
"It's not a big deal, follow me!"
The big fool waved his hand and beckoned to the brothers, turned around and ran out of the building, and walked round the garden, and got out of the hall and the outer gate, and stopped beside the haystack where they had been piled together during the day, and bent down to pick up a large mass and ran back.
The other eight snow-white balls didn't even think about it, and then they all picked up a ball of hay and followed behind the big fool.
As soon as he entered the outer hall, he held his hands high and covered the hay over the flames. Soon, the light of the fire was smaller, and only yellow smoke began to emerge through the cracks in the grass.
"No, isn't there a fire?
The big fool said happily.
The other eight fools were relieved to put the hay they had brought together, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Nine fools couldn't be idle at the moment, for fear that the fire would ignite again, so he took three steps and two feet to the fire, leaned down and began to blow again, and blew when he saw the fire. The other balls were very righteous, and they all rushed over to form a circle without saying a word, competing to breathe for a long time, closing their eyes and being so tired that their faces were red and their necks were thick, and they were still blowing.
"It's on, it's on again, it's on again!"
Five Confused and Six Confused shouted in unison, while holding the big confused right arm tightly.
"No, it's not a big deal!"
The big fool got up in a hurry, waved his hand and called the eight brothers to the big haystack that had just been piled up, each grabbed a position, lifted it up violently, and slowly approached the edge of the fire that had become bigger, and covered it with a pop!
This time it was pressed so tightly that the pile of hay so large on it that not even a spark could be exposed below, and it was immediately pitch black.
"Isn't this going to be extinguished again?
The big fool said, clapped his palms, turned his face and walked out of the door, while leading the rest of the balls to sing happily:
"You fight the fire, I fight the fire, let's all put out the fire!
You saved the fire, I saved the fire, everyone saved the fire......"
After going out and patrolling around Zhao's house carefully, they all returned. When they returned and passed through the outer gate, the big and the second fool still stayed to stand guard. The moment he walked to the position of the hall, the three confused and the four confused stopped on both sides again. As soon as the remaining five Dandans came to the door of the "water" building, they immediately panicked!
"It's not good—"
Nine fools cried and screamed and rolled out of the hall, knelt down in front of the big fool outside the gate, and said:
"Boss, boss, let's save the fire!"
"Revived?"
The big confusion hasn't reacted for a short time.
"Yes, yes...... Saved, so high, so high!"
While answering, Nine Confused got up and raised his right hand to gesture upward.
"Alive?"
The big confused was still a little puzzled, and he touched his head and walked in.
When it stopped outside the "water" building and looked into the depths, it was suddenly frightened stupid, only to see that the fire was half wide, and the flames were burning on the roof.
"Quick, go and save my sister!"
The big confused and anxious, shouted and rushed into the building.
After a series of falls and crawls, nine little fools appeared beside Li Wenyun's bed with a snort, and they lifted her with their hands and feet and ran downstairs.
When Li Wenyun woke up in a daze, he was already on the ground by the garden.
"Ah, sister wake up, sister wake up!"
They cheered.
Li Wenyun sat up slowly, just as she saw the fire in the building.
"You guys are really fools! You guys can do stupid things about putting out fires!"
At this moment, Xuan Xuan also understood what was going on, his mouth was criticizing, but his body shook quickly, and suddenly a large beam of water spewed out from the tail end of his moonpetal-like body and rushed straight into the fire, and it didn't take long to extinguish the fire.
"Don't blame them, where are they going to find water in the middle of the night. ”
Li Wenyun stood up and looked around, and said to Xuan Xuan.
The night was quiet, and it was bleak.
The moon shone faintly on the four fields, shining on those vague poplar trees, stretching out in long rows...... The monotonous bird's nest of gray and gray made her more serious, one, two, and three...... It seems to really remind me of the old people, and I am so stubborn that I refuse to think about it. Hurriedly turned his face and stopped his gaze in front of another building, why did the word "Jie" sink a lot? Could it be some forgotten past?
"When did I start to be cold? Let the painful scenes of the past be ruthlessly wiped out? Maybe it's all because of the experience...... But since that's already the case, why did I reawaken something? Was it because of the night? Was it the silence of the night? The night was so terrible......
Li Wenyun muttered to herself, and the soft hair around her eyebrows was gently blown away by the wind, revealing her forehead, which was still slightly convex, but it seemed to be more beautiful. Inadvertently, a long-lost tear flowed from her face and slipped down again.
