Chapter 107: Divine Instructor
"Save us! Save us! The exit is blocked and there are many workers inside!"
"Everyone come quickly and help put out the fire! Put out the fire quickly!"
"Save people first, save people first."
"Open the door, open the door, find a way to open the door."
People in the factory area were rushing around, and the sudden disaster left them unprepared, unable to calmly face and deal with the problem.
Some shouted for people to be rescued, some shouted for fire rescue, and some shouted for people to be found. In the face of rapidly spreading flames, everyone felt tiny and didn't know what to do.
"Everyone who is on duty, don't move. All the rest of you go and rescue people from the fire. Remember, saving lives comes first." Zhang Shidong issued the command immediately. He started the car and arrived at the gate, only to see that many vehicles outside had stopped, blocking the highway. People jumped out of their cars and rushed out through the gate that had just been opened.
The arrival of a group of professional soldiers and thirty or so police officers calmed the chaotic scene, Zhang Shidong held a communication device in his hand, giving orders into it: "Turn the loudspeaker to maximum volume."
The loudspeaker at the training base was very loud, Zhang Shidong did not walk through the main gate, and directly jumped over the drainage ditch beside the road that was more than one meter wide, then took another stride, and with a boost from the fence of the factory area, he flipped in.
"Move all the cars on the side of the road, stop the cars to make way for rescue, don't block the fire trucks, leave a fast rescue channel." Seeing Ai wearing professional attire and high heels, Zhang Shidong stopped her and handed over the communication device: "You organize this."
Ai understood that the energy she generated by going in to rescue people was too small, so it's better to organize the chaotic scene.
"The highway to the high-speed road, a few cars are stuck and let the car go around. The highway to the urban area, please make way for everyone, park your car on the field dirt road, and also block a few cars at the intersection, don't let traffic congestion affect the arrival of fire trucks and ambulances. If you want to help, please do as I say, I am Ai Ai, the host of News Exploration. If you are just watching the excitement, please hurry up and drive away, don't block the road. Timely rescue can save a life in one second. Please ask the female police officer on the scene to maintain order, there are hundreds of soldiers here, those who cannot keep up with the physical strength, help maintain order outside... everyone, don't rush in all at once..."
Ai Ai is very rational and has the demeanor of a great general. On the other side, a virus drove out in a truck, saw that the car was not moving, and directly squeezed into the drainage ditch on the side to ensure the smooth flow of traffic.
"If you are willing to help transport the wounded, please drive your car into the factory area..."
Ai Ai saw the truck rushing in, and with the help of the virus, she stood on top of the front car, organizing the chaotic situation despite the cold wind. She saw Zhang Shi Dong rush past, but the virus didn't rush over, instead helping to direct the scene's chaos. Seeing people who were frightened out of their wits, he went up and gave them a kick. Standing on the highway, he was even more majestic. As for those who were hesitant and wanted to watch the commotion without helping, he grabbed an iron shovel and slammed it against the car. At this time, whoever reacted the fastest and ensured the smoothest traffic flow could guarantee the quickest rescue.
There were strong personnel on the scene organizing, and the crowded situation that generally occurs in major disasters did not appear. The roads were clear, and the fire trucks and ambulances at the edge of the city responded to the alarm and set off. The most worrying scene did not occur, and a smooth entry was ensured onto the highway where at least one lane was kept open.
"What's going on? During the lockdown operation, several safety gates were closed, not enough for rapid evacuation. At this rate, more than half of the people inside won't be able to get out."
"The circuit breaker is inside, perhaps it's a short circuit caused by a fire, and it hasn't been turned on."
Technicians shouted loudly, Zhang Shidong grabbed him: "Is there an opening device outside?"
"This..."
The person hesitated in response, and Zhang Shidong didn't bother to continue asking. This huge integrated workshop had major safety hazards and human negligence.
A pungent smell emanates from the factory, and the presence of toxic gases will only accelerate the danger inside. Once dizziness and fainting occur, even simple confusion can cause people to lose their judgment in a panic.
Faced with the recently closed gate, Zhang Shidong rushed up, according to his estimate, in at most three to five minutes, the fire would spread throughout the factory.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Zhang Shidong swung his fist and slammed it on the safety gate, which was at least two inches thick. The safety gate, originally designed for protection, had become a deadly trap.
Three punches, smashing through, the sharp and hard fractured area scraped Zhang Shidong's arm bright red, with faint blood seeping out. At this moment, he couldn't care less, mobilizing all his true energy to his hands, grasping the fractured area, and suddenly pulling outward while continuously kicking at the gate below.
Six punches, four kicks, a total of two pulls, smashed out four points on the gate, and two pulls opened up a 1.7-meter-high and 2-meter-wide "man-made door". Thick smoke and toxic gases poured out from inside, while the cold wind outside also created a path for survival for employees trying to break open the door nearby. Some people were so panicked that they ran out and got scratched by the shattered remains on both sides of the "man-made door", but in the face of death, these were nothing.
Everyone who came to rescue and those who escaped were stunned, is this human? Didn't my eyes just go blind for a moment?
"Forty seconds must come out, one door goes in twenty people. Except for my people, don't go in, stay outside."
While running towards another door thirty meters away, Zhang Shidong shouted angrily, waking up those stunned people. People without professional training cannot grasp the rescue of holding their breath for forty seconds without affecting various bodily functions. Under the leadership of Yin, the first batch of twenty people rushed into the thick smoke, shouting to let people rush out from this exit.
The same with the second gate, the third one, and the fourth one.
Four large gates lined up were enough to cover the entire factory, Zhang Shidong's arm was bloody and bruised, but in fact, the injury was not serious, it just looked scary, with the true energy protecting him, he still couldn't let the true energy cover his whole body, a distance of two millimeters from the skin, was what he couldn't protect.
In two minutes, Zhang Shidong completed all this. He faced the last gate of the factory area closest to the explosion point and the combustion point, and rushed in without hesitation: "Follow me!"
Others were choked by the thick smoke and had to resist the toxic gases, their vision was completely blocked in the factory area. Zhang Shidong didn't, grabbing a female worker who fainted on the operating table, he threw her backwards: "Continue."
"The door on this side is also open." Coughs and shouts faintly came from the smoky environment, and figures rushed out recklessly.
Zhang Shidong went against the tide, and only five or six people followed him from behind. Xue Lin, Yan Xiao'er, Niu Yongshou, Tongtong, and Hu Yu'er, these powerful warriors kept up with Zhang Shidong's footsteps in the crowded area.
The entire factory was in disarray, with debris and heavy objects covering many areas, painful cries for help came from the front, a machine weighing several thousand kilograms had tilted over and crushed the legs of a middle-aged man, who was desperately crying out for help.
Tong Tong took out the dagger he was carrying with him and rushed to Zhang Shidong's side, ready to use the long and thick dagger to amputate the middle-aged man on the spot. This was the fastest way to save him, and currently the only method.
Zhang Shidong stretched out his hand, grabbed Tongtong's collar and pulled him back, half-squatting down, with both hands clasped on the machine bed, using all his strength to lift it up. The machine bed was partially crushed and partially embedded in the collapsed wall, but he managed to lift it up with his true energy. Tongtong was completely stunned, while Hu Yu'er rushed forward and pulled out the man, throwing him onto Xue Lin's back.
As the big fire spread, getting closer and closer to Zhang Shidong and others, he used both feet, just like kicking a football, kicking away obstacles, searching forward. Given the severe situation on site, he could only turn at the first corner after entering the door, search horizontally, and prepare to exit from the first door at the fastest speed. As for those deeper inside, unless they were unlucky enough to be blown up or burned to death at the beginning of the explosion, or were trapped, under the instinctive reaction of survival needs, they should have all run to the area near the gate.
When Zhang Shidong saw someone faint, he picked them up. Then there were people carrying them from behind. At this time, they couldn't retreat and could only carry on moving forward. The people present were at least able to forcibly carry several hundred kilograms of weight. Even the weakest, Hu Yu'er, if she grabbed two adult men, could guarantee a moving speed.
Between the two gates, the most people fainted, from the fourth gate to the third gate, except for Zhang Shidong, they all dragged two people, seeing soldiers receiving in front, stubbornly throwing them to them, and continuing to follow Zhang Shidong running forward in the suffocating environment.
In just a few minutes, those who had once doubted Zhang Shidong's abilities were thoroughly convinced. As they thought about saving people, his words that had destroyed their confidence kept flashing in their minds, and it seemed that they themselves were indeed too weak.
There were fewer people fainting between the third and second doors, Zhang Shidong kicked them all out of the second door with one foot: "Get out."
This was their limit, and after coming out, several people couldn't help but run forward for dozens of meters, rolling on the ground, coughing loudly and vomiting violently, grabbing the snow on the ground and shoving it into their mouths to expel the dizzying toxic gas smell.
Boom!
Boom!
Two explosions in a row, the factory building that should have been extremely strong began to collapse on a large scale, and the flames spread faster with the collapse.
"The instructor is still inside!"
This was their subconscious first reaction, propping up their body and rushing back to respond to Zhang Shidong.
Boom!
The sound of the collapse merged with a much smaller explosion, and the first door was blocked by a reinforced concrete pillar that had fallen from the top of the factory. The second door was now engulfed in flames.
All rescue efforts have left, except for...
PS: Thanks for Zhou Xiaohan's reward!
PS2: First, I'd like to apologize to everyone. Recently, my wife has been suffering from a waist injury and taking care of the kids has left me exhausted. I've only just opened my computer now, so this update is late - sorry about that! Please give me some recommendation votes!
