Old Zhang's pupils suddenly dilated, his legs went soft with fright, and the stick in his hand dropped to the ground.
He never expected that the playboy who was busy giving ideological education lessons to the little girl every day would rush into the fire to save people without regard for his own safety!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it!
Without time to think, he fumbled in his pocket for his phone, his hands trembling uncontrollably in his immense fear.
As soon as he pulled out his phone, his hands couldn't hold it steady, and it dropped to the ground again.
He picked up the phone, forced himself to remain calm, and kept dialing Su Jianguo's number, but the other end kept showing it was turned off.
In desperation, he stumbled to his feet and shouted for help to the crowd.
“Whoever goes in and rescues my Third Young Master, I promise them three million yuan, and I will honor it one hundred percent!”
Everyone: ·······
Where did this madman come from??
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Old Zhang continued to raise the stakes, holding out five fingers, and said with a trembling voice.
“Five million, ten million!”
After he finished speaking, still no one paid attention to him, nor did they know who the Young Master he spoke of was.
They just thought he was crazy, yelling around like a lunatic.
Leaving aside whether the ten million could actually be honored, with the current fire, who would dare to rush in?
Isn't that just asking for death?
Old Zhang disregarded his image, frantically grabbing at young talents like a madman, constantly increasing the stakes, as beads of cold sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead.
“Fifteen million! Is there anyone for fifteen million?”
“Twenty million!!”
“········”
Finally, he gritted his teeth: “Thirty million, I can only decide on this amount at most·······”
Still, no one paid attention to him.
At this moment, Old Zhang was so anxious he was going crazy······
The people around him ignored him completely, craning their necks to look inside, eager to know Su Yan's situation, with a hint of worry flashing in everyone's eyes.
“You're saying this young man is so brave, he doesn't even have a firefighter's suit, how is this any different from seeking death?”
“I took a glance just now, he was wearing green clothes, he should be a soldier.”
“Only they would disregard the danger to their lives, only thinking of rescuing the common people.”
“I saw it clearly just now, he is a soldier; if he were an ordinary person, even if they were given tens of millions, they wouldn't dare to rush in.”
An old grandma with a face full of wrinkles, leaning on a walking stick, sighed: “But soldiers don't ask for a single penny and will still bravely rescue the people…”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell silent.
In Yan Nation, when people hear the words 'soldier,' the common people will stand in awe.
Their good lives now are inseparable from the silent guardianship of the soldiers, inseparable from their burden-bearing journey!
·········
As Su Yan just reached the second floor, a scorching flame fiercely attacked him.
Thick smoke, like a gust of wind, continuously blew across his face, assaulting his olfactory nerves.
He covered his mouth and nose, coughing for a while before slowly recovering.
Then, he quickly rushed to the burning room, kicked open the door, and saw a middle-aged woman already unconscious on the ground, with weak vital signs.
Fortunately, the fire inside was not large, but the smoke was thick, making it impossible to open one's eyes.
He frantically grabbed several coats from the sofa, rushed to the bathroom to soak the clothes, then wrapped the wet clothes around the woman, lifted her onto his back with effort, and quickly rushed towards the door.
The moment he picked up the woman, his entire body stumbled backward several steps before he managed to steady himself.
Even though he was soaking wet, the scorching flames still felt searingly painful when they touched his body.
However, he was completely oblivious to the pain now, his only thought was to rescue the people inside.
Others could retreat, but he could not, because he was a soldier!
These two words (saving people) were deeply imprinted in his mind; that was the military soul and mission etched into his bones!
“Quick, look, that young man is out, he's out.”
The common people below were overjoyed when they saw Su Yan rushing out of the stairs with someone on his back, secretly holding their breath for Su Yan.
The family members suddenly looked up, and upon seeing it was their own family, they quickly rushed over and took the woman from Su Yan's back.
Su Yan handed the person over to them, breathing heavily, and said: “You all should quickly send her to the hospital.”
The family members nodded heavily, expressing their gratitude with tears in their eyes: “Okay, thank you!”
Without time to linger, Su Yan took a few deep breaths, and just as he was about to rush in again, a large hand gripped his arm.
“Su Yan, you can't go in again, the fire is getting bigger and bigger.”
Su Yan struggled to break free from his wrist, urgently shouting: “Uncle Zhang, I'm fine, there are still people inside!”
“If we delay a few more minutes, they will lose their lives.”
With that, he shook off Old Zhang's hand and rushed in again.
By the time Old Zhang reacted, Su Yan had already disappeared.
He suddenly turned his head, anxious to follow, but was driven back by a scorching flame.
Helpless, he could only stand in place, screaming hysterically.
“Su Yan, you bastard, why are you so disobedient? If something happens to you, how will I explain it to your father?”
“With so many people not going to save, why do you have to go? Does it make you seem very capable?”
“Are you a god? Get down, get down for me, get down immediately.”
At this moment, Old Zhang's mind was blank, he even forgot that today was the day he was sending Su Yan to join the army.
However, Su Yan completely ignored him, his heart filled only with the common people inside.
Never abandon, never give up!
This was what his new recruit squad leader taught him, and it became a motto for their lives!
As long as he still had a breath in him, he absolutely could not give up on a single Dragon Nation compatriot.
When Su Yan returned to the house, he scanned the living room but saw no one.
He then quickly opened the bedroom door and saw an old man already unconscious on the ground.
He grabbed the bedsheet from the bed, rushed to the bathroom to soak the bedsheet, and then draped it over the old man's body.
He then exerted force to lift him onto his back, steadying himself after a few seconds.
As soon as the wet towel touched him, the old man shivered from the cold and groggily woke up, only to realize he was on the back of a young man.
His heart warmed, and his nose felt sore; although this shoulder wasn't very broad, it made him feel incredibly secure.
In a desperate situation, a stranger risking their own safety to rush in and save you—no one could remain unmoved.
“Thank…you, young man~ *cough cough cough*~”
Su Yan hastily said: “Uncle, please don't speak for now, conserve your energy.”
Just as he was about to rush out, he found the flames at the doorway growing stronger, roaring as they spread into the house.
The old man's face was filled with despair, and he anxiously patted Su Yan's back: “Young man, the fire here is too big, you won't be able to get out carrying me like this.”
“Put me down, I'm already half in the grave.”
“You're still so young, don't lose your life because of an old man like me.”
Su Yan comforted him, saying: “Uncle, whether you are old or young, you are equally important in my heart!”
“I'm going to rush out now, please keep the wet bedsheet wrapped around you.”
With that, he took two steps back, like a wild beast just released from its cage, gathering momentum and charging fiercely into the fire ahead.
Fortunately, the system gave him a bottle of physique enhancement liquid yesterday, otherwise, with the original owner's body, which had been hollowed out by beauty.
Let alone saving people, he probably would have collapsed from just rushing back and forth like this.
“Quick, look, the Liberation Army Comrade saved another one, saved another one, quickly get water to rinse the child's body, hurry, hurry, hurry.”
“Quick! The child is all burned, look, half of his hair is burned off.”
“Oh dear, the flesh on this child's calves is all red from the burn, it's truly heartbreaking…”
In a panic, the crowd quickly brought over buckets of water from the side, continuously pouring them over Su Yan.
Some residents who lived nearby even specifically pulled a water hose from their homes, turned the faucet to the maximum, and continuously sprayed water on Su Yan.
The moment the cold streams of water sprayed over him, Su Yan felt alive again, his entire body much more comfortable.
Old Zhang walked over with faltering steps, continuously wiping Su Yan's body with cold water, his face full of heartache as he said.
“Xiao Yan, how are you? Are you injured?”
“Let's go, let's go~” He looked anxious, pulling Su Yan's hand, wanting to leave: “Quickly come with me to the hospital for a check-up! This isn't what you should be doing!”
“Uncle Zhang!” Su Yan struggled hard to break free from his hand, saying righteously: “I am a Liberation Army, this is what I should be doing!”
As his words fell, Old Zhang's mouth dropped open, his eyes widened, so shocked that even the hairs on his head were trembling.
Is this… is this still the Su Yan I know?
At this moment, a woman collapsed to her knees in front of him, her eyes red, sobbing uncontrollably.
“Liberation Army Comrade, please save my child, my child is still inside.”
“My child is still inside…”
She knew she shouldn't be morally blackmailing, but she was truly desperate now…
She could only grasp at this last straw!
Su Yan helped her up, comforting her: “Don't worry, I will definitely rescue your child.”
“You wait here.”
The woman wiped her eyes and nodded forcefully, her eyes full of gratitude!
Su Yan asked the crowd for a few pieces of clothing, wrapped his lower body tightly, and then rushed back in.
There was no other way, the lifeblood he saved just yesterday couldn't be ruined like this, otherwise he wouldn't be able to marry a wife later…
Anywhere else could burn, but not there!
After making all preparations, Su Yan gritted his teeth and continued to rush in.
“Third Young Master! You're going to drive me to my death…”
Old Zhang roared heartbrokenly, but his physical ability couldn't match Su Yan's, so he could only pray continuously in his heart.
A middle-aged man walked over, looking at him in confusion and asking: “Sir, the Third Young Master you just mentioned, is that the Liberation Army Comrade?”
Old Zhang nodded blankly: “That's right!”
As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar below, and everyone exchanged glances, their faces full of shock.
“We all need to get the water ready; when the Liberation Army Comrade comes down later, we need to help him cool down.”
“Since we can't go in to help him, we must help him with these small things.”
“The military Comrade sacrificed himself to save us common people; we can't just stand idly by either.”
“Why haven't the firefighter Comrades arrived yet? This fire is getting stronger and stronger, what should we do…”
“There were several cars that rear-ended and also had an accident up ahead, so the fire truck can't get through for a while…”
………
After Su Yan rushed to the second floor, he covered his mouth and nose, searching for people room by room amidst the large fire.
Finally, he found a little girl, about 5 years old, in a small room.
Fortunately, the window in this room was large and open to the north and south, so the smoke was much thinner compared to other places.
What shocked him was that the little girl had not fainted, but was crying loudly the entire time.
He quickly rushed over, covered the girl with the wet blanket he had been wearing, then picked her up and held her tightly in his arms.
“Don't be afraid, I am People's Liberation Army Uncle! Uncle will take you out!”
The little girl quieted down and nodded obediently to him: “Okay~”
As he rushed out of the living room, an unknown gas suddenly knocked him flying.
