Chapter 61: Fire (2)
Pang Whale braved the heat wave and moved a few steps forward. He judged that what had just exploded was not a big thing. Although it was loud, it did not have a strong impact.
But he couldn’t figure out why Qi Zhixuan walked deeper into the sea of fire. Is his will to survive still so weak? Has he forgotten that there is someone in the world who loves him? Why is there no nostalgia at all…
This realization made his heart feel as if it had been hollowed out. This was a feeling that was more uncomfortable than being in this sea of fire, and a huge sense of loss filled every cell in him.
And why Qi Zhixuan was like this? In fact, after several attempts, he was indeed exhausted. His headache felt like it was about to split. Seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, he really felt that he could not survive. He was thinking of some way to leave some last words.
But later, the fire collapsed a corner of the framing room, directly smashing out the bathroom next to the wall. Qi Zhixuan seemed to see some hope again, crawled to the bathroom to get water, wetted the unburned tablecloth and wrapped himself up to go out. He did go out for a short distance, but he remembered the box of paints that Pang Jing had made for him, and felt very reluctant to part with it, so he went back to get it.
Originally, it only took a few seconds to go back and forth, but unexpectedly, the turpentine piled in the corner exploded, and the hot liquid splashed on him. The burning pain caused him to lose strength in an instant, and he leaned against the wall, unable to move another step.
Is it over here?
If Pang Jing knew about it, he would probably be very sad. He usually feels uncomfortable being away from him for a period of time, but what should he do? There is also the senior sister who tried so hard to save her brother, but she is still going to die. Songsong will also cry. Although she seems to be omnipotent, she is actually a very emotional person.
Qi Zhixuan hid the paint box in his arms and hugged it tightly. His body was so painful and tired. He felt that his mind could no longer move and he fell into deep darkness.
This darkness was like entering a long, endless corridor. Qi Zhixuan felt his body become lighter little by little, and slowly floated to the end of the corridor, as if there was a luminous door. Behind the door was his figure who was thinking about it day and night.
His father is still so gentle, as if he is cooking his favorite red bean paste, and his mother is still the same as when he was a child. She has not aged at all, knitting sweaters for him and his father as before.
Good, really good. When I go to them, I am no longer a child without a father and a mother.
Qi Zhixuan raised his feet and wanted to step into the door, but was gently stopped.
“Xiao Xuan, dad burned the red bean paste. I’ll cook it for you next time, okay?” Dad’s voice was still gentle.
“Oh, mom is almost exhausted from knitting one sweater for your dad, but she doesn’t have the energy to knit a second sweater.” Mom smiled, reached out and touched his head, “囝囝, wait until next time.”
“But…” Qi Zhixuan’s eyes were hot, he really missed them.
“You still have someone you want to see, don’t you?” Mom and Dad held his hands, their eyes full of love, “Go see him, we will always be here waiting for you.”
Someone you want to meet?
Qi Zhixuan suddenly came back to his senses.
Yes, he has people he wants to see, he wants to see his lover, and he wants to live with him. There are still many, many things they have not done yet.
“Go ahead.”
His parents smiled and gently pushed him out. A gentle force enveloped him and pushed him out of the darkness little by little.
“Well…” Qi Zhixuan felt like he was pushed out by them and stuffed into the stove. It was so hot that something wrapped around his mouth. He was forced to open it, and a cool trickle poured in. He couldn’t stop swallowing, and the cool feeling suddenly went down from his throat.
Pang Jing was feeding Qi Zhixuan water. He couldn’t drink it at first. He had no choice but to drink it himself and then help him get through it. He repeated this several times and finally saw his Adam’s apple rolling and swallowed a few mouthfuls.
“Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan?” Pang Jing saw his eyelids rolling, as if he had regained some consciousness, and kept calling his name in his ear.
Qi Zhixuan used all his strength to slowly open his eyes, his vision blurred.Only a hazy shadow could be seen, like a giant whale.
Is this so good? You can get one for free. Not only can you see your parents, but you can also see your partner again.
As his vision gradually became clearer, the dull pain in his head and the burning pain in his body kept coming, and he gasped in pain.
It hurts so much. It’s not fake. Then is this… a real giant whale?
Qi Zhixuan struggled from Pang Jing’s arms despite the pain.
“Be careful, you have a cut on your head, take your time.” Pang Jing helped him up nervously. There were wounds on his body and head, for fear that he would bleed if he moved around.
“You…why are you here?” Qi Zhixuan realized that this was a real Pang Whale and was so frightened that he immediately woke up.
“Why are you here…how can you come! Get out! Get out! How can you come!” Qi Zhixuan touched his hand, which was the temperature of a living person. This was true. Pang Jing actually came to him. How could Pang Jing come to him?
His voice became dry and hoarse due to the high temperature and dehydration. His hands tightly pulled the clothes on Pang Whale’s chest, but tears could not stop flowing down.
“Xiao Xuan, Xiao Xuan, be careful about the wound.” Pang Jing saw him moving like this, and the wound on his body began to bleed again, so he had to hug him to prevent him from moving.
Qi Zhixuan couldn’t care less about the pain on his body. A huge sadness suddenly spread in his heart. Isn’t Pang Jing going to die? How could he come to such a dangerous place when he is still so young and has a good future… This is heart-cutting, skin-cutting, and a fear that is a hundred times more painful than facing death.
“How…how could you come…” Qi Zhixuan was trembling in Pang Jing’s arms, crying uncontrollably, and his tears kept flowing down.
Pang Jing hugged the person in his arms distressedly, but he had no regrets.
He is not afraid of death.Even if he died, he would at least die with Qi Zhixuan in this life.
Pang Jing gently touched Qi Zhixuan’s hair, pressed his face against his forehead and said, “If I don’t come, won’t you be left alone? When I saw you come out and go into the fire, I thought you didn’t want me anymore. My heart is broken. People will die sooner or later. Don’t always want to leave me alone. If we can get out alive today, please don’t do this again, okay…”
Qi Zhixuan cried harder, but the tears seemed to have dried up. The high temperature steamed his eyes, and the tears could not come out, leaving only painful whimpering. He wanted to say that he had not wanted to die for a long time. Every moment they were together, he was very, very happy. He wanted to live!He wants to live!
The two hugged each other tightly in the small bathroom. Qi Zhixuan sobbed for a long time before he gradually calmed down. After the door was smashed, Pang Whale barely stood up again. The gap was filled with wet tablecloth. Although it was still stuffy, it temporarily isolated the source of the fire.Water still flows from the faucet, which becomes their only supply.
Pang Jing saw that Qi Zhixuan had slowed down and gave him some water: “The fire outside was very big and burned down a lot of places. It was difficult for us to get out by ourselves. But when I came in, someone had already set up firefighting. The police were dispatched quickly. Don’t be afraid. We will definitely be saved.”
Although Qi Zhixuan was injured, he seemed to be in good spirits and should be able to hold on for a while.
“What’s wrong with your neck?” Pang Jing took off his T-shirt, wet it, and wiped Qi Zhixuan’s face and neck, only to find a bruise on his neck.
Qi Zhixuan briefly told him about the dispute with Liang Yuansheng. Pang Jing’s veins burst out when he heard it, as if he wanted to eat people.
“It’s okay. There are surveillance cameras everywhere. He can’t escape.” Qi Zhixuan also wiped his face for him. He didn’t know how he got in. His hair was burnt and his face was covered with black ash.
Pang Jing was holding his breath, but he still carefully checked and cleaned the wounds on Qi Zhixuan’s body. His neck was injured, his arms and legs were blistered, and there was such a big gash on his head. He felt angry and painful, and his eyebrows were twisted like twists.
Seeing him like this, Qi Zhixuan slowly relaxed, pinched his face and said, “It’s okay, it will be fine.”
Before the wound was cleaned, they heard voices, far away and not very clear.
Realizing that he might be a rescuer, Pang Whale immediately found the gravel nearby and knocked on the water pipe to make a sound.
The voice seemed to have heard their signal and followed the sound, and its words gradually became clearer.
“Is there anyone inside? I’m a firefighter and I’m here to save you.”
Qi Zhixuan and Pang Jing looked at each other and immediately knocked on the door frame and responded, “We are here.”
“Keep your strength up and come right away.”
Not long after, firefighters came and broke down their doors.
Unexpectedly, there was only one firefighter outside the door. He climbed over with great effort and said, “The outside has collapsed. The rest of our team are still widening the opening. The entrance is narrow and only one person can get out at a time! Which of you is more seriously injured? Or who is smaller and can get through quickly?”
He took out a gas mask and asked the two of them to choose one to put it on and follow him.
Pang Jing immediately took it and put it on Qi Zhixuan. When Qi Zhixuan saw that he was letting him go, he immediately pushed his hand away and said, “I don’t want it.”
“Xiao Xuan! Be obedient!” Pang Jing held down his hand and put the mask back on forcibly, “If you don’t tell me, it’s a big deal. I can’t get out. They’ll be here soon.”
He turned to the firefighter and spoke quickly: “He has many wounds on his body, which are large and easily infected. Please take him for treatment as soon as you get out. Please!”
Qi Zhixuan struggled desperately, holding his hand and refusing to let go.
“Xiao Xuan, don’t let me come in in vain.” Pang Jing took his hand and kissed him, looked into his eyes through the mask, and pushed him out with a smile.”I promise you will come out alive. Can you wait for me outside?”
His face was gray, but his eyes were still so bright. He said don’t let him come in vain. These words were too strong, which made Qi Zhixuan’s heart hurt even more. In order to keep himself alive, he tried his best to break in from the outside…
Qi Zhixuan let go of Pang Jing’s hand tremblingly.
Time was urgent, and the firefighters pulled him to rush out. Qi Zhixuan watched him put the door back up again, his eyesight blurred by tears for a moment, but he was afraid that he could not see the road clearly, so he had to bite his lip to hold back, forcing himself to follow the firefighters to climb out.
The two of them climbed all the way, and the temperature was so high that it burned his skin and flesh. However, the fire became smaller and smaller as they went outside, until they finally followed the firefighters to a place where there was no fire.
After they got out of a small hole, their eyes suddenly opened up, and several people came to help them. Two of them quickly took Qi Zhixuan out of the cordon, and then turned back to the fire scene.
“Xiao Xuan!” “Boss!”
Sister Rong and Chen Runsong were waiting outside. When they saw Qi Zhixuan coming out, they immediately rushed over, crying and laughing.
The ambulance was already waiting, and the medical staff were ready to help him get into the car.
“I’m not going!” Qi Zhixuan shook off their hands and turned around to rush towards the fire, but was stopped by the cordon. “Pang Whale is still inside! I have to wait for him to come out!”
Seeing that he was covered in blood, the nurse advised him to get in the car first, “Please cooperate with our treatment. You have many injuries and severe blood loss. It is very dangerous.”
“Xiao Xuan, the ambulance is right next to it. You go over and treat the wound first. I’ll help you keep an eye on it here. I’ll call you as soon as Pang Jing comes out, okay.” Chen Runsong also gave some advice. He went out for activities at noon today. Unexpectedly, when he came back, he found that the little painter had been burned. Qi Zhixuan and Pang Jing were still inside. He was so scared that he almost lost his soul. He stayed outside for a long time before Qi Zhixuan was rescued.
Qi Zhixuan didn’t answer, just shook his head. He didn’t want to leave even a step, so he was waiting here for him to come out.
Now the open fire outside is basically gone, but it is still very hot. He can hear the mechanical movement inside, and a little clicking sound. Qi Zhixuan looks forward to seeing him every second.
I don’t know how long it took, but Chen Runsong and Sister Rong tried to persuade him several times, but he still refused to move. Chen Runsong could only say good things to the medical staff and asked them to give Qi Zhixuan the medicine they could get.
The nurse helplessly carried the medical kit to treat his wounds. He had many burns on his body, but the most serious one was the blunt force injury on the back of his head. The wound was so large that it required stitches.
Just as the nurse was cleaning the wound on his head, a loud noise suddenly came from the fire scene – “Bang!”
“What’s going on inside?” Qi Zhixuan was blocked outside and couldn’t get in. He suddenly grabbed the arm of a firefighter next to him, his voice trembling.
“It was the secondary explosion of turpentine inside.” The firefighter said a word and hurried in.
“Second explosion…” Qi Zhixuan kept mumbling. He put the turpentine himself, very close to where they were just now…
Qi Zhixuan’s heart was about to burst, and he insisted on breaking through despite the people in Raqqa.
“Let me in! Let me go!” He struggled, and the newly treated wound on his body opened again, blood soaked into the bandaged gauze, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
“Xiao Xuan! Don’t be impulsive!” Qi Zhixuan almost tried his best, and Chen Runsong and the others almost couldn’t hold him back.
Chen Runsong had no choice but to hold him tightly and drag him to the ambulance. “Xiao Xuan! You can’t get in. There are professionals there. Stop moving. You’re bleeding!”
“Let me go, let go! Let go… let go…” Before Chen Runsong could drag the person into the car, Qi Zhixuan’s voice became weaker and weaker, and the strength of his struggle gradually disappeared.Chen Runsong looked down and found that the wound on his head was bleeding again, flowing from the back of his head down his neck, staining his back red.
“Quick! Send him to the ambulance!” Chen Runsong turned pale with fright, and he quickly worked with the medical staff to carry the unconscious Qi Zhixuan into the ambulance.
