The air waves caused by the huge earthquake pushed outward layer by layer, and all the trees that were far away were almost broken down the middle. At this time, there was only a big bare hole in the place where there was originally a piece of low bushes—— All the vegetation turned into black charcoal powder.

In just a few breaths of time, the small town was lit up with lights.People ran out with lamps to see, and they were all photographed by the shocking fire in the back mountain.

"Sin!" Several elderly people's eyes darkened, and they fell to the ground immediately.

It is indeed a sin, and everyone who sees the fire that seems to burn everything feels like this.

All of a sudden, the whole town was in a hurry. Those old people who had fallen on the ground were helped to the side, and the rest of the people who still had energy hurriedly put up lanterns to search for people on the mountain.The night wind was so strong, if it was delayed for a while, the whole mountain might be burned down.What's worse is that if the fire continues to spread, it will also involve the town at the foot of the mountain, which is something no one wants to see.

People who came and went were all carrying farm tools and barrels. They looked anxious and lost their patience in speaking.The town was already short of water, and the water stored before was obviously not enough to extinguish the forest fire. People had to resist some sand and soil, and no matter what, stop the fire first.

The sound of the shock gradually died down, but the fire continued to burn.The flame mixed with hot wind swept everything in the mountains and forests, and all the places in sight were prostrate at its feet, willing to be controlled by it.Looking at the monstrous fire, everyone's fear and tension were magnified to the extreme.

And the emotional flash point was when the people in the town found a few charred corpses not far from the place where the fire broke out. Suddenly, crying, shouting, and cursing echoed distortedly in the sky.

The surrounding area was blocked by sand, and the fire gradually subsided, but the hot air seemed to be able to stir up another fire.

The few charred corpses were carried out from the fire scene, and almost everyone stopped what they were doing, and surrounded them spontaneously.Most of the relatives of the deceased were elderly people, and they were also in tears at this time.Originally, I thought that my child was just playing along with other people, but I didn't expect that when I was playing, I also played with myself.

The others were also sighing and thankful. They sighed that the few people lying here were almost the only children in the family. Now that they have ended up like this, what should the old parents in their families do? Fortunately, they are not their own children. The nephew was in trouble.

"Uncle Wang is dizzy!" A cry came from the crowd: "Hurry up and find Lao Li from the medicine hall!"

"Lizheng, are you confused?! Old Li just passed away last month, and the medicine hall is now guarded by his useless son!" Another person scolded.

"Where are people!" Lao Li said angrily, "No matter who it is, call to save them first."

"Let's just lie here." The man pouted his mouth on the ground: "I can only resign myself to fate, let the old Wang stand up."

"It's a crime! It's a crime!" The old man sighed, "This is the end..."

"I'm a doctor, who fainted!" A man squeezed out from the crowd and asked anxiously, "Where is he?"

The rest of the people took a closer look and found that it was an unfamiliar face, and they immediately said in displeasure: "Where did you come from, please tell the truth!"

"My surname is Wen, and I used to be a doctor by name. Let me take a look at him!" The young man was burning with anxiety: "It's not a trivial matter for an elderly person to faint, please make way!"

Wen Shuqiu was originally waiting on the periphery of the crowd, waiting for them to carry out the surviving wounded for timely treatment, when he suddenly heard a commotion inside.He quickly realized that something must have happened to the family of the deceased.

He knew that the people in this town were xenophobic, but he didn't expect them to be so xenophobic.Before he could finish speaking, a man with a hoe pushed him away, pointed at him and said angrily: "Did you, a foreigner, start this fire?!"

The young man took a deep breath and explained: "Now is not the time to talk about this, can you let me see the fainted person first?"

"Don't let him see!" someone shouted from behind.

"Yes! We won't let you get close to Uncle Wang until you tell us who you are!" Another man with a crooked nose pushed the thin young man again: "Follow us sneakily, You must have no good intentions!"

"What are you messing around with, let the gentleman deal with it!" Lao Li was angry at this moment: "Everyone is not using their brains, how can a foreigner come all the way to set a fire?!" After that, he changed Zhang The smiling face said to the young man: "I have neglected you, please come and have a look!"

"Thank you." Wen Shuqiu didn't refuse, bypassing the person who blocked him just now and went straight to the person who fell to the ground.After taking a closer look, he was surprised to find that it was the old man who had shown him the way before.

"Old man, can you hear me?" He said loudly while feeling the old man's pulse: "Old man?"

The pulse phase is sometimes false and sometimes real, erratic.Wen Shuqiu saw that his face was blue and purple, which was a sign of breathlessness, so he quickly took off the hairpin, and used the sharp end to press the twelve well points on the old man's ten fingers. The seemingly blunt hairpin actually pierced the old man's skin directly. A few drops of blood were shed.

Everyone around was in an uproar, waiting to be questioned, but saw the old man slowly waking up.

"Old man, old man? Remember me?" Wen Shuqiu pursed his lips and patted the old man's cheek lightly: "Hold on, don't sleep, old man."

The old man struggled to open his bloodshot and turbid eyes, squinted at the young man, and made a ho-ho inhalation sound from his throat.

"What do you want to say?" Wen Shuqiu lowered his body, but he didn't hear anything clearly: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm here."

"I...fire..." The old man's mouth tilted uncontrollably, and his saliva flowed out. He seemed to be trying his best to say something.Wen Shuqiu's heart skipped a beat. He tried to stimulate the acupuncture points on the old man's hand, but he didn't respond to pain at all.

"Say, I'm listening. Try raising your hands." He took some emergency rescue measures, but found that the old man didn't respond, and his heart sank gradually.The old man's pulse became weaker and weaker, and his face was gray at this time, which made people feel desperate.

"My son...fire..." The only moving eye of the old man was still fixed on the young man who was doing acupuncture for him, and he said something vaguely.

"He didn't set the fire." Wen Shuqiu said suddenly, he frowned tightly, unable to hide his sadness and said: "He didn't do anything bad."

"..." The old man gave him a last look drowsily, and let go of his hand.His body was already hollowed out by the medicine of the tiger and wolf, and he was suddenly stimulated again. At this moment, it was like a dead tree trunk that had rotted from the depths of its bones. It was knocked hard by someone, and it immediately turned into powder.

Wen Shuqiu clenched the hairpin tightly in his hand, feeling sad in his heart.

"Old Wang is really, maybe he did something bad to suffer like this."

"Couldn't he be bewitched? I think his appearance is almost the same as being bewitched."

"Hey, the son is not a good thing, and all the retribution is on Lao Tzu."

The surrounding discussions were disturbing and extremely harsh.The young people don't need to look, they know their expressions at this time - it must be full of secret malice.

"He has an emergency and cannot be rescued." He stood up, passed through the crowd, and walked down the mountain without saying a word.The rest of the group started discussing in low voices after he had gone.

The young man walked extremely slowly, stumbling along the road in his memory back to the inn.There was no one in the small building, and naturally they couldn't light a lamp, so it was completely dark.The shopkeeper did not go to put out the fire at all, and was still asleep in the backyard at this time.He returned to his room unimpeded all the way, turned over and lay down on the bed without changing his clothes.The young man was really exhausted, and he just wanted to have a good sleep and recuperate.

At this time, there was a knock on the door. The young man hesitated for a moment, and sat up resignedly. He really couldn't do such a rude thing as shutting others out.

"Brother, you're back." Qianwen's voice sounded from the door, he was holding a small lamp and a small bottle in his hand.

"Well, why don't you go to bed so late?" Wen Shuqiu squatted down and stroked the child's hair.

"Ah, your face is hurt!" The child didn't reply, but suddenly called out in a low voice, "Don't you feel it?"

Wen Shuqiu raised his hand to touch it, and there were indeed several places on his cheeks that were stabbingly painful, and he didn't notice it since he wasn't thinking about it just now.

"I'll apply the medicine for you." The child volunteered, and Wen Shuqiu took some medicine out of the package, and said with a smile, "Then I'll leave it to you."

The little boy's hands are not delicate, perhaps because of doing rough work, there are many calluses on the fingertips.He dabbed the ointment lightly, and then carefully applied it to the young man's face.

"Why do you want to save it?" the child asked softly.

The young man raised his face and asked him to wipe the last wound: "Why not save it?"

"But you were injured in order to save others. Don't people live for themselves?" The child lowered his head, his forehead was covered by his expression, only his voice sounded a little fuzzy.

"It's like this." The young man closed his eyes, the pain of the wound was relieved by the cold ointment, he relaxed and said with a smile: "But it's not all like this."

"I will save people, not only because I am a doctor and able to save people, but more..." The young man rubbed the child's face: "It's more because I don't want to see the patient with his relatives and lovers. parting, let alone the pain of their loss."

"People can live for themselves, but not all for themselves. At any time, think about those who are attached to you. They will suffer for your pain and despair for your death." The young man took the child With the medicine bottle in his hand, he stood up: "You don't understand now, but you may understand in the future. There are always some people who are more important than yourself."

"I don't have such a person." The child raised his face stubbornly, his eyes were red.

"When I was a little older than you, I also stubbornly believed that there would be no such person." Hearing the sobbing in the child's voice, the young man trembled slightly.

"And now, do you have it?" The child lowered his head and quickly wiped his eyes, but at the same time missed the extremely gentle smile of the young man.

"Yes." Wen Shuqiu wiped the child's pretty face, and said with a low laugh: "That person finally came later, not too soon or too late, we met just in time."
