The moment their eyes met, the two old men looked into Feng Ling’s eyes and were startled.
Matriarch Feng looked at her with tears in her eyes. Her hands trembled as she raised them, but as she looked at her, she anxiously and helplessly stretched her hands toward the fire. “This… this… child… this…”
“What are you two doing here?” Li Nanheng sensed the seriousness of the matter from the two elders’ eyes. He frowned. “What happened?”
Grandfather Feng’s eyes also fell on Feng Ling, but he didn’t have time to say anything. The moment he saw Li Nanheng, he raised his hand and pointed at the fire. “They are inside… They went in to look for you… Quick, think of a way to save them!”
Li Nanheng raised his eyebrows. “Them? Who?”
At this moment, Old Madam Feng suddenly burst into tears. She quickly stepped forward and hugged Feng Ling, who was still standing by the side in a daze. At the same time, she buried her in her arms and cried loudly: “My granddaughter… you are my granddaughter… Feng Ling… my good granddaughter… I finally saw you! But what should we do now… Your parents just entered the jungle. Since we are old, they said they would go in to look for you, but why did it suddenly catch fire… What should we do now…”
Madam Feng choked and cried. Her intermittent sobs allowed Li Nanheng to get a rough idea.
When he suddenly learned that Qin Qiu and Mr. Feng were in the jungle, Li Nanheng glanced at Feng Ling. Feng Ling was still standing there. She didn’t know where to put her hands and feet when she saw the old woman who was suddenly crying in front of her. However, when she heard that her biological parents were in the fire, her hair stood on end.
The moment Li Nanheng turned to look at her, she suddenly turned to look at him.
Their eyes met. The inertia in XI Base made them unable to say anything more. Right now, they were in a hurry to save them.
“How such a big fire happened?” Li Nanheng said as he quickly observed the fire above the jungle. Hearing that the fire truck was approaching, he turned back to look at the fire truck and decisively walked toward the cars.
Feng Ling remembered that Qin Qiu was inside. That was her mother and her father, whom she had never met.
Every time she went out on a rescue mission, her mind would remind her to go to the fire truck with Li Nanheng to apply for help. However, the old woman who was crying so hard that she almost fainted made her unable to move away. Her hands were frozen on both sides of her body. Listening to the old woman’s heartbroken and anxious cries, Feng Ling lowered her head to look at her. Her lips moved but she didn’t know what to say or what to say.
At this moment of life and death, no one could spare the effort to consider what kind of background they had. She paused and looked up at the old man who was walking over. “Mr… Mr. Feng, I’m sorry. I have to participate in the rescue mission now. Let’s rescue him first, okay?”
Elder Feng looked at her deeply and tried his best to suppress his anxiety. He nodded at her and said, “How are you going to rescue them? It’s such a big fire. Child, don’t take the risk to go in. Your parents are in grave danger. If you go in and something happens to you, we…”
“I’m a member of XI Base. I have professional rescue methods and have participated in countless dangerous missions. Please trust us.” After speaking, Feng Ling pushed the old woman who was crying in her arms to Elder Feng. At the same time, she quickly turned and ran toward the fire truck Li Nanheng had gone to.
Elder Feng held his wife’s hand tightly and looked back at the blazing jungle worriedly. The weather was too dry and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. In such a big jungle, how could it be easy to save someone?
On one hand, they were filled with worry. On the other hand, they were happy to finally see Feng Ling. The two feelings clashed. The two old people could not bear it and staggered by the car door.
“Please be fine… please…” Madam Feng clutched her chest, her eyes red. From time to time, she looked at the sky full of fire, and then at the direction Feng Ling had just left. She said with a trembling voice, “Old man, that’s our granddaughter…”
“Yes, she is our granddaughter.” Elder Feng sighed. “With just one look, I can tell that she is an outstanding and brave child…”
Several fire trucks were already in position. Li Nanheng used his cell phone to contact the nearest rescue helicopter from XI Base. They would fly over in about half an hour. As they were really members of XI Base, the rescue team had to take out a spare fireproof thermal suit, a disinfectant mask, and other equipment.
Li Nanheng spent the whole time communicating with the people in the fire truck in English. Feng Ling listened and quickly changed her clothes. Although she remained silent and didn’t speak up, her trembling hands still exposed her fear and worry.
With such a big fire, it was really too difficult to save the two of them…
But the people there were her parents.
And those two kind old people were her grandparents…
They were family and relatives she had never dared to dream of.
Why were they suddenly involved in a fire? Why did they suddenly come here? Why did they go in?
How could this be?
After communicating with the people inside, Li Nanheng turned back to see Feng Ling’s hands trembling slightly as she fastened the belt. His gaze fell on her face. At this time, any words of concern were useless. He only looked at her and said in a serious and low voice, “Can you do it?”
Feng Ling did not answer. Instead, she decisively picked up the gas mask and covered her head.
The fire in the jungle was very strong. Although Li Nanheng didn’t want Feng Ling to take the risk, she had been on several rescue missions which were even more dangerous than this. Right now, the people inside were her parents. It was impossible for her to stay outside. She had to go with them to rescue her.
“After you go in, listen to my instructions. No matter what happens, don’t let your emotions affect you,” Li Nanheng warned her in a low voice.
Feng Ling had already put on the gas mask and looked up at him. “En.”
The sky was covered in flames and half of the sky was red. The burning heat came from the direction of the jungle, causing her eyelids to hurt.
No one would have thought that the forest would be swallowed by the sea of fire in the next moment.
