"Firefighting? The beggar was stunned suddenly, subconsciously looked in the direction of the fireworks, and finally reacted, and the whole person suddenly panicked, "Hey! Oops, oops! It's a granary over there! ”

As soon as the beggar finished speaking, Ma Ban was already anxious and went into the alleyway, and ran away.

The beggar looked at the direction in which the hemp spots disappeared, and then looked at the fireworks in the sky, pacing back and forth with a tangled face.

It stands to reason that firefighting has nothing to do with him as a little beggar, and it's too late to hide from this kind of thing.

But later, I don't know if it was out of a sense of mission, or thinking about participating in firefighting and receiving rewards for meritorious service, or stealing some food while the fire was in danger... Whatever the reason, he still pulled his leg to keep up with the pockmark.

In terms of pockmarks, his body was not strong, he ran out of breath after a few steps, and his clothes were soaked with sweat, but he still dragged his lead-filled legs forward.

Although he was very anxious on the surface, deep down he was still optimistic about the fire in the granary, because the situation was discovered early, even if his legs could not outrun the wind, and the embers of fireworks in the sky fell into the granary first, the fire could not be ignited immediately.

After all, the granary is the lifeblood of a city, there are all fire prevention facilities that should be there, and the overseers and guards are not stupid, as soon as they find that the wind is not in the right direction, coupled with the fireworks floating in the sky, they will definitely be prepared in advance.

As long as the small flames can be extinguished in time and the fire does not spread, it should not cause much damage.

However, when Mamada ran out of breath to the block where the eight granaries were located, the scene in front of him made him lose his soul.

Blaze...

As far as the eye can see, the sky is burning...

The fireworks of the wind are sprinkled here, the sky is full of sparks, the embers of the fireworks are pouring down like a rain of fire, and the eight granaries are already wailing, and the flames are burning the sky.

Tongues of fire hit the sky, turning the night half red, and a heat wave swept in from ahead, accompanied by deadly black smoke, mercilessly harming people's respiratory tracts.

At the gate of the granary, there were overseers running out one after another, some standing there in a daze, looking at the fire, some were coughing violently because they were running slowly, inhaling excessive smoke, and some were lying on the ground with burn marks on their clothes, and their skin was full of burn marks.

There was a fire reflected in the pockmarked pupils, and the eight granaries where he had once fulfilled his duties were being engulfed by the fire, he unconsciously shed tears, his face was wrinkled, his mouth trembled and cried, and he ran to the granary gate in despair: "Firefighting... Hurry up and put out the fire!! ”

Before Ma Ban could take two steps, the beggar chasing after him had already grabbed him and shook him vigorously: "Are you crazy?!" With such a big fire, what's the use of you running in?! ”

As his tears poured out and dried by the heat, he looked around with a distracted gaze, and finally at the overseer guards who were also dejected, he threw himself over and grabbed them by the collars, and asked hoarsely, "What have you all done?!" How could there be such a big fire all of a sudden?! Didn't you see the fireworks? Why not prepare in advance to fight the fire?! ”

"Machi...", the overseer recognized the former grain officer, and he gradually came back to his senses, and said with trepidation, "No... That's not right... We saw the fireworks and prepared the water in advance, but..."

Seeing that the overseer seemed to have lost his soul, Mamada slapped him directly and shouted, "But what?!" ”

The guard next to him trembled and continued: "When those embers fell, the fire spread directly, burning everywhere, and there was no chance for us to put out the fire!" Before we could react, we were already surrounded by flames, and several of the brothers in charge of indoor patrols did not escape, and now I'm afraid they have..."

The guard glanced at the burning granary, and did not dare to say anything about the rest.

"The fire just spread? "Mamada stared blankly at the burning granary, and said in despair, "This can't be... The main body of the granary building is all stone, there is no wooden structure, and there is an isolation layer inside, and there is a firebreak outside, and the fireworks only fall for a while, at most there will be a small-scale fire, how can it be burned like this?! ”

The overseer's eyes were swollen from crying, and he said in a trembling voice, "We really don't know... I swear to the gods that we have done everything we can..."

Ma Ban hurriedly looked around and asked, "Where is the grain officer?" Your new grain officer, the one named Kerry, where has he gone?! ”

The overseer guards, you look at me, I look at you, and they all shake their heads to indicate that they don't know.

The guard said cautiously: "Lord Kerry went out during the day today, and I didn't see him until just now, maybe I went to the scene of the Dragon Fire Festival to watch the fireworks..."

Ma Ban's face wrinkled with anger after hearing this, and he gritted his teeth and said, "cubs... A grain official actually left his post without permission on a festival like the Dragon Fire Festival, which may cause fire, even if he was killed a hundred times, it was not enough to calm his anger! ”

"Boom-" At that moment, perhaps the flour stored in the granary caused the second deflagration, and a huge fireball erupted in one of the granaries, and the heat wave followed, the bricks and tiles on the walls were blown away, and the overseer guards who fled outside fell to the ground like dominoes.

Everyone got up from the ground in embarrassment, looked at the granary engulfed in flames with tears in their eyes, and muttered, "The grain is going to be burned... The higher authorities will surely ask us for our sins... What can I do about this..."

Mamada gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, forcing himself to calm down.

There is no time to investigate the cause now, and extinguishing the fire and saving food is the first priority.

He was well aware of the internal structure of the granary, the grain was stored separately in batches, with separate closed compartments, which was a fireproof structure designed by the Kingdom engineering team to withstand extreme situations.

Such a single compartment design, even if the granary is not fireproof and there is a fire inside, the fire can be controlled in one silo room, instead of burning one place and burning all out, which can effectively prevent the fire from spreading too quickly.

Now the fire has only been burning for more than ten minutes, and there should be many warehouses in it that have not caught fire, and if the fire can be extinguished in time at this time, most of the grain can be saved.

The eight granaries are the lifeblood of Danyu City, and every time a warehouse is saved, thousands of people can be saved from starvation, otherwise, thousands of people can't eat.

But the question is, how to save this fire? ...

Such a big fire can no longer be saved by manpower with a bucket of water.

Unless there is a god to help at this time, it rains heavily from the sky.

However, the gods did not show mercy to Danyu City, and now only the south wind is blowing, and there is not a drop of rain.

Not only was the wind unable to extinguish the flames, but it even brought more fireworks embers, further fueling the fires.

Without the power of the sky, how can we extinguish this fire...

Even if all the soldiers were mobilized to go to the reservoirs in the north to get water, it would be a drop in the bucket.

Wait, the reservoirs of the north ...

Reservoir? ...

Madara's eyes lit up, and he looked beyond the flame-shrouded sky to look further north.
