Chapter 43 Timely Rain

I took a deep breath, "Hiss—" Seeing this, Jia Yang dragged me to leave, but I kept standing where I was.

"Sister Xiaoqi, the wound on your hand!" Tian Li saw the wound on my hand, "Let's go back and treat the wound first!"

I looked at the flames all over the mountain, the flames were still burning, and said: "It's too late, if we don't cut out a fire zone, we will all be burned here."

Tian Li looked at the fire that was getting closer and closer in front of him, pursed his mouth and continued to splash the water.

Before, we put the water in the reservoir into the canal at the foot of the mountain, and just poured a lot of water on the plants, and now the water in the reservoir has decreased significantly.

Now we have cut a fire zone of about three or four meters, but if the wind direction is wrong, it will still be easy to burn.We can only take care of this side of the mountain. We don't know if there are survivors on the other side of the mountain to ease the fire on the other side.

I don't know how much time has passed, the sky is slowly getting brighter, and the wind is blowing around, I feel a little water dripping on my face and hands.

I raised my hand to feel it, thinking it was dew or sweat.

Tian Li ran over happily and said, "It's raining!" Then he took the bucket in my hand and checked my burned arm.

Jia Yang also came over.

I looked at the sky, the sky was gloomy at this time, and I couldn't tell whether it was the dust after the flames burned or the dark clouds.

Slowly, the rain became heavier and fell on the leaves and on the burning fire.Another period of time passed, and this timely rain extinguished the fire!
We were given a temporary respite as we waited for the fire to wind down and die.A group of people prepared to go down the mountain and went back to their homes.

The zombies at the bottom of the mountain seemed to have been greatly frightened. The zombies gathered by the wall before had all left, not knowing where to go.

When we got home, Jia Yang immediately found the medicine box, disinfected me first, and then applied anti-scald medicine.

……

There was a strong wind outside the window, which was different from the pattering rain not long ago.The wind beat wildly against the see-through glass.

Several of us were downstairs, discussing the sudden fire.

"It's so strange, the weather has never been so hot before!" Dad said first.

"That's right! I've been here for several years. The hottest month in August and September is over forty degrees. Why is it so hot in July?"

I looked at the indoor thermometer, "It's almost [-] degrees indoors these days, and it's still on the side of the mountain, so the temperature has dropped a lot."

"The actual temperature outside may be in the [-]s?! My God." Lin Kai said.

"When it's on fire, we don't have trees to cover us here, and the temperature will only get higher in the future." Jia Yang said.

"Did it catch fire because of the heat?" I asked.

"It's possible. I remember which country was on fire not long ago because it was too hot. It burned for a long time!" Dad tried hard to recall.

I also remembered the news I watched before.

The temperature here has never been so high before, and these two days have been a rapid climb, probably because of the high temperature that caused Xiaoman to remember to catch fire. When there is wind, the fire area will become larger.

"But fortunately, the timely rain fell today!" Tian Li said happily.

"At this time, is the typhoon coming?" I stared at the raindrops constantly beating on the see-through glass.

"After so many days of heat, it's time for rain!" Dad said, "Oh, my old bones are exhausted after working so hard. I'm going to lie down for a while." Then Dad got up and went upstairs .

After Dad went back upstairs, probably because he wanted to be cooler, he didn't close the door, and soon there was the sound of Dad's snoring.

"Sister Xiaoqi, how is your arm?" Lin Kai leaned over and asked.

I shook my head, "It's much better, it was a bit spicy at first, but after applying the medicine, it feels much cooler!"

Tian Li also leaned over, "Sister Xiaoqi, what do you want to eat, I'll make it for you~"

"That's right ~ Sister Xiaoqi, what do you want to eat? Do you want porridge? You haven't had a good appetite recently."

"I'll ask Miss Xiaoqi first, why are you robbing me?!" Tian Li asked Lin Kai.

"It's your sister Xiaoqi, and it's also my sister Xiaoqi! How is this robbery?"

……

The two started bickering again, since Tian Li felt that Fang Zhijiu liked Lin Kai, Tian Li unconsciously regarded Lin Kai as a rival in love.Lin Kai is also not showing weakness, the two of them come and go with one sentence for you and one for me, making the family lively.

Jiayang pushed me and pulled me upstairs.Leave a sentence: "Call us when you are done!"

I also left a sentence: "I don't have any appetite, but I want to drink porridge~" and then walked upstairs.

As soon as I went upstairs, I used my other uninjured elbow to attack Jiayang, "Did you find out?"

"What did you find?" Jia Yang asked.

"Lizi likes Fang Zhijiu!" Jia Yang seemed to have two question marks in his eyes, "But Fang Zhijiu likes Lin Kai?"

Jia Yang is a straight man, "Stop joking!" I reminded him to pay attention to his tone of voice.

"How is it possible! Both of them are men!"

"Tian Li said that Fang Zhijiu treats Lin Kai just like in a TV series."

"The TV dramas are all staged, not real, the reality is different." Jia Yang rubbed his chin, "I think Lin Kai likes Tian Li."

"what?!"

"Boys bully her because they like someone! I remember when I was a child..."

"Ah?! Isn't this a love triangle?!? She loves him, he loves him, and he loves her."

"What's so difficult?!" Jia Yang pretended to be relaxed.

"what does it mean?"

"Then the three of you will be together!" Jia Yang said affirmatively.

I knocked Jiayang to the ground, what a joke.

……

"Everyone come down to eat!" I heard Lin Kai's voice.

Chatting with Jia Yang, and after fighting the fire all night, I was so tired that I fell asleep without knowing it.At this time, the wound on the elbow continued to ache.

I asked Jia Yang to pull me out of bed, and we went downstairs for dinner.

The rain outside has stopped at this time, but the wind is still very strong. This situation is very similar to the typhoon Tianzhen.

The six of us sat around the dining table, Lin Kai and Tian Li cooked mung bean porridge and prepared some side dishes.

I thought of the cucumbers I had pickled before, and I asked Jia Yang to take them out.

The sweet mung bean porridge is just right with the sour pickled cucumber.

The sound of porridge drinking and crunchy chewing sounded one after another, and everyone's appetite seemed to improve a lot after the rescue.

"I'm going to go back to the shelter at night." Fang Zhijiu said suddenly.

Lin Kai told us before that Fang Zhijiu was going to return to the shelter, but he didn't expect it to be so soon.

"Why so fast, don't you stay for two more days?"

"That's right! It's still raining outside now." Tian Li also said worriedly.

I looked at Lin Kai, he looked indifferent.
