Blazing Armour - Chapter 144

All combat classes moved quickly.

As it is a key fire control unit and a new plant area, various measures are advanced and complete. There are 12 ground fire hydrants in the plant area alone, and all buildings have indoor fire hydrants, all of which have been antifreezed and regularly maintained. Therefore, each fire hydrant can be used. After being pressurized by the water company, the water supply is abundant, which gives them great confidence.

Led by Yan Jue, they tied reflective guide ropes in groups of four. Each of them carried an additional gas mask and entered the cold storage.

There was a certain distance between the entrance and the fire point. At this time, the overall temperature of the cold storage had not risen. When they first entered, they still felt a little cold. However, although the temperature is not high, the smoke has permeated the whole space, and the fire in the cold storage is very different from that in other places. Under normal circumstances, the smoke moves upward. The lower the pressure of the human body, the more likely it is to breathe fresh air. On the contrary, in the cold storage, due to the problem of specific gravity, the smoke is deposited in the lower layer, resulting in a high toxic gas content in the smoke, Visibility is low, so it is easy to get lost.

As they walked, they shouted, leaving luminous light strips on the road as road signs for retreat.

“Hello, fireman! Hello?”

Yan Jue commanded, “class one and class two go to the place farthest from the fire point. There is less smoke there. People will certainly run to the place with less smoke.”

“There are too many steel frames in here, and the signals can’t work. After you leave, you should be flexible and set up road signs. You must leave enough space for yourself to retreat at the right time.” Yan Jue asked.

“Yes, team Yan.”

The two classes set out in the opposite direction, and the rest continued to go deep. They opened the circuit with a water gun, very close to the fire point. Ammonia is soluble in water. The best way to reduce the harm of liquid ammonia or ammonia is to dilute it with a large amount of water.

“There’s someone here!” A soldier shouted. He picked up the girl in school uniform on the ground and put a gas mask on her.

Seeing that she had short hair, Ren Yu knew it was not Gong feilan. He helped the soldier untie the guide rope: “follow the road sign and don’t get lost.”

Yan Jue sent a soldier to escort them out together.

Moving on, they found two more poisoned and unconscious children on the road. Looking at their dying appearance, the soldiers were very uncomfortable. Ren Yu wanted to use the intercom to contact the other two classes or people outside the cold storage several times. He wanted to ask them if they had found a tall girl with long hair, but the intercom was full of noise and couldn’t contact at all.

“Fireman, please call for help when you hear it, fireman, please call for help when you hear it -” Yan Jue shouted at the top of his voice.

The more they go inside, the greater the smoke, and the more complex the road is. They look back. They can only see two or three cursors behind them, and all the others disappear in the smoke. The shelves and equipment that can only see their huge shadow stand around one by one, as if they were Monsters hidden in the smoke. They may live to eat people at any time.

The sound of a drill bit came from above and in the distance. Liang Wei must have determined the breaking point and began to break it. After opening the smoke vent, a lot of poisonous smoke could be dispersed, but they couldn’t wait until then. They were racing against the God of death.

Yan Jue suddenly said to Ren Yu, “did you hear any strange sound?”

Ren Yi frowned: “a lot of strange sounds.”

“No, you listen. It’s like a gas leak. It’s right ahead.”

“Most of it is the leakage of liquid ammonia pipeline and vaporization.”

“The valve has been closed.”

“It must be off, but there are still residues in the pipe.”

“Let’s get around there.”

Just as they were about to make a detour, there was a bang in front of them, and there were several regular knocks.

Yan Jue shouted, “someone! Go quickly!”

They followed the sound and ran through the infrared night vision instrument. They barely found several figures in the thick smoke, all of which fell to the ground.

The closer they got to them, the soldiers obviously felt a sharp drop in temperature. It was ammonia at work.

Ammonia is not only a common material for refrigeration, but also a highly toxic chemical. It can damage the human body through respiratory tract and skin contact at the same time. After the leakage of liquid ammonia pipeline, it will vaporize rapidly, absorb heat, and the temperature will drop suddenly. Ammonia is toxic, corrosive, flammable and explosive, but also has multiple dangers such as frostbite, burn and cell tissue dissolution. It can be described as a combination of five poisons.

Without any protection, people will be poisoned immediately as long as they are exposed to ammonia exceeding the safe concentration, and they may die within a few minutes of high concentration.

They don’t need to think. They also know that the reason why the people who ask them for help don’t speak is mostly laryngeal edema or mucosal detachment.

When they ran over, they found that the situation was more critical than they thought.

A teacher and three students fell in the liquid ammonia leakage area. All the students were unconscious, and there were obvious signs of frostbite on their hands, feet and face. Only the male teacher was beating the iron bucket with his last consciousness. His two eyes were bleeding out, and his hair, face and body were covered with white frost, which described it as terrible.

Not far away, staggered liquid ammonia pipes are still deflating, and a layer of knee high white fog floats on the ground.

The two soldiers hurriedly hit the liquid ammonia pipeline with water guns, trying to dissolve the ammonia.

Yan Jue commanded his two platoon leaders: “unload the weight and save people.”

Without saying a word, Ren Yu also began to take off his equipment.

Yan Jue said in a harsh voice, “Ren Yu, you’re not ordered today. This job can’t be your turn.”

Ren said calmly, “I’m a firefighter. I’m ordered to protect people’s lives and property, no matter what day.”

“You…” Yan Jue knew he couldn’t persuade Ren Yu. The more dangerous it was, the more cadres had to go. This was their principle. He gritted his teeth and said, “if you’re slower than me, I’ll laugh at you all my life.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t have that chance.”

Several people unloaded all the weight they could unload, because they wanted to snatch people out at the fastest speed. As long as they slowed down for a few seconds, the low temperature would erode their whole body and delay their action. Moreover, they wore rescue clothes, not sealed protective clothes, but ammonia gas. If they couldn’t make it, it was likely that people didn’t save them and took them in.

The ammonia filled zone ahead is like a swamp pool, which tries to pull them in with bait and stay there forever.

Yan Jue took a deep breath and roared, “rush -”

Several people rushed at the fastest speed.

As soon as he entered the diffuse white smoke, he felt as if he had plunged into the ice and snow with his bare body. No, it was colder than that. It was so cold that his whole body was like acupuncture, especially his lower legs, because ammonia was mostly diffuse below his knees, resulting in a much lower temperature in the sinking area. There is also a small amount of ammonia drilling in through the gap between gloves and collar. The contact skin feels burning and the eyes are very uncomfortable. This is still under the condition of wearing a gas mask.

They ran to the students and teachers and recited them one by one.

But this squatting action, low temperature and sudden load, almost made people unable to stand up. They clenched their teeth, propped up their bodies, carried people and ran back quickly.

The hanging breath did not dare to relax until he ran to safety.

They put people on the ground and covered them with oxygen masks, but when they saw that several people were in critical condition, Yan Jue looked at the hands and made a quick decision: “all of them first, exit, and they must be sent out as soon as possible.”

Ren Yu glanced at the distance – in fact, he couldn’t see anything except smoke and white fog. He silently prayed in his heart that Gong feilan had been saved. If Gong feilan was the one lying on the ground and hanging on the line, he really didn’t know how to face it.

They lifted the injured in pairs. Others opened the way with water guns and identified the signs along the road. With their cooperation, they finally successfully sent the four injured out of the cold storage.

The first responders waiting outside hurriedly greeted them.

Ren Yu took off his mask and wanted to find someone to ask if he had seen Gong feilan, but looking around, everyone was busy. The wounded in the same school uniform were everywhere. Shouts, cries and burning poured into Ren Yu’s ears like a flood. So much information had far exceeded the computing power of his brain that he could hardly hear anything.

“Ren Yi, Ren Yi!” Yan Jue pulled his shoulder and looked at him anxiously, “what’s the matter with you? Are you hurt? Have you inhaled poison gas?”

Ren Yi shook his head: “no, I’m fine.”

“Don’t go in with us. You can’t be so restless. Don’t worry. The fire has been controlled and won’t spread. Many students have just been rescued one after another. Go to find Gong Yingxian’s sister. I remember her appearance and I’ll pay attention in it.”

“Good!” Ren Yu turned and ran to the ambulance. More than a dozen ambulances were parked at the scene. Some were going to the hospital, and some were still doing on-site first aid. Ren Yu looked one by one and asked one by one with the photos of Gong feilan, but there was no result.

Ren Yi hugged his head, and the helplessness and fear at that moment were indescribable.

“Ren Yi!”

Hearing Gong Yingxian’s voice, Ren Xuan’s heart trembled fiercely. He turned around and expected to see hope from Gong Yingxian’s face.

However, the two eyes crossed, and they saw panic and anxiety from each other’s eyes.

Gong Yingxian lowered his head and his body trembled.

If you haven’t been rescued yet, it means… It means at least you’ve been hurt.

Ren Yu went to Gong Yingxian and said difficultly, “the fire has been controlled. Everyone will be saved. We will find her.”

Just as Gong Yingxian was about to speak, the mobile phone he held in his hand suddenly rang. When he spread his hand, the caller ID name was gong feilan!
