ninth tail

The temperature of the fire made Ji Xiao feel that his body was starting to ooze oil. He gritted his teeth and opened a few cotton bags that were on fire, and saw the boy who was crushed underneath. His feet were stuck under an iron frame and moved. No, the clothes on my body already have sparks.

Ji Xiao extinguished the fire on his body, thought for a while, took off his protective clothing and wrapped it around the boy.

Lin Zi also rushed over behind him, saw that he was only wearing a T-shirt, and slapped him hard on the back, but didn't say anything else, went directly to lift up the iron frame, Ji Xiao dragged him away out.

The boy couldn't stand up at all, so Ji Xiao lifted him onto Lin Zi's back and yelled at the boy, "There is another classmate of yours, where is it?"

"Some inside." The boy pointed to a position closer to the wall.

Ji Xiao didn't speak, but turned his head and went inside.

"Ji Xiao!" Lin Zi was anxious, "Go to someone with protective clothing!"

"It's too late, you carry him out!" Ji Xiao replied, feeling the scorching heat on his arms.

"Fuck!" Lin Zi, who was carrying someone on his back, didn't dare to delay any longer, bowed his head and rushed towards the warehouse door.

Ji Xiao felt that he was not afraid of fire, but every time he faced a fire scene, he felt a painful feeling. Every time he rescued a person, every time he extinguished a fire, the pain would be temporarily relieved.

He knew why, the disappearance of Cui Yuanhang in the sea of ​​flames was a pain he could never forget in his life.

Although he knew very well that even if he exchanged his own life, he would not be able to let Cui Yuanhang come back, but the more he was like this, the more he could not face this past.

Only when you risk your life to save people will you have a short period of peace.

Is this your own redemption?he does not know.

Brother, run!

Cui Yuanhang's last words to him were like a spell.

His body was in pain, his clothes were stained with sparks, and his flesh burned after a while.

He found another boy, crushed under a heavy bag, unconscious.

What was Cui Yuanhang like back then? Is it the same?In the end, he lost consciousness and disappeared into the sea of ​​fire.

Sorry, Yuanhang, sorry, I'm late.

Ji Xiao ruthlessly pushed away the bag that was pressing on the boy's body, and the tongue of fire poked out from the thick smoke, and he could smell the scorching smell of his body when he was burned by the fire.

It hurts.

But this time I won't leave you here alone, and I will take you out to die after death.

The boy is a big man, because he is already unconscious, so when Ji Xiao wanted to move him, he couldn't cooperate at all, and he looked extremely heavy.Ji Xiao knelt on the ground, trying to lift him up, but there were flames constantly rising all around him, he couldn't move, his hair seemed to be burnt, and there was a strange smell.

He heard Lin Zi's voice, and the reinforcements entered the warehouse, but he couldn't wait for them to come through the fire. In this short period of time, the fire here might engulf him and this boy together.

He had to get out immediately. He gritted his teeth and endured the great pain caused by the fire on his body. He put the boy's arms on his shoulders, and he had to get out immediately.

A black figure rushed into the fire and pulled up the unconscious boy from behind him. Ji Xiao felt a lightness on his shoulders, and when he looked up, he saw that the boy had been quickly pulled out of the fire. Surrounded pile of cotton.

He knew it was Ding Wei without even thinking about it, and he felt relieved.

When Ding Wei rushed into the fire again, Ji Xiao saw the angry look in Ding Wei's eyes, and he knew that Ding Wei was angry because he was too reckless.

Ding Wei grabbed his arm and shook him vigorously, he was thrown out, and fell heavily beside the boy, before he recovered his senses and got up, he was held back, it was Lin Zi and the others who had arrived.

"Stupid!" Lin Zi picked him up and cursed.

"You are crazy!" Lin Zi stood beside his bed, biting a cigarette and cursing without time, "Are you saying that you are crazy, is there no other way? Can't wait for that one minute! I really want to slap you!"

Ji Xiao's body was full of wounds and burns, and now he was in excruciating pain. He sat on the bed, silently listening to Lin Zi scolding him.

"We need to talk about ways to save people. Didn't the team keep saying that exchanging one life for another is the best way, and that's the last way!" Lin Zi took out the lighter and lit a cigarette, and lit it a few times The flames were blown out by his own breath, and he threw the lighter on Ji Xiao's bed, "Besides, you may not be able to get another life if you die! You didn't even wear protective clothing! I don't care if you used to What makes you so crazy, I will report to the team in a while, you are not suitable for front-line work at all!"

Ji Xiao was still silent, he had nothing to refute Lin Zi, many of their colleagues died because of saving lives, but he also knew that he was impulsive, the reason was only understood by himself, he had no room to think at all.

He glanced at the window sill, Ding Xiaozhuo was staring out of the window with his butt facing him, his tail was hanging behind his back and gently swinging back and forth.

"Don't talk about it," he sighed, took the lighter and held it in front of Lin Zi, "I see."

"When did you not know! I said you said less!" Lin Zi leaned over to light a cigarette, but blew out the flame with a noise. He was angry and threw the cigarette on the ground, stomping on it twice. Feet, "Fuck you bastard, stop! You fucking want to go!"

Lin Zi slammed the door angrily and went out. Ji Xiao closed his eyes. This was probably the worst time for him. The same warehouse, the same classmates, the same person who ran out, and someone inside...

"Does it hurt?" Ding Wei's voice sounded calm by the window.

"Yeah." Ji Xiao responded, Lin Zi finished scolding and left, now it's time for Ding Wei, Ding Wei probably wouldn't scold him, maybe beat him directly, he frowned, that kind of hand strength, probably could make him directly Called to the hospital to lie down.

He heard Ding Wei's footsteps approaching, and then felt Ding Wei's hand touch his shoulder, he straightened his back, ready to bear Ding Wei's first punch or slap.

Dan Dingwei just squeezed his shoulder lightly, and slid his hand to his back.

This movement is very gentle, with a strange feeling, very comfortable. Ding Wei's palm is different from the usual warm temperature. Now his hand is very cold. This coolness spreads through his skin and spreads in his body, and the burning sensation on his body is relieved. a lot.

Ji Xiao opened his eyes and turned to look at Ding Wei: "It's much better, how did you do it?"

"Shut up," Ding Wei glanced at him, the pupils that were not covered by the colored contact lenses shrank into a thin strip, "I'm still angry, don't talk, or I will make you hurt to death."

"Okay." Ji Xiao lowered his head obediently.

After about half an hour, Ding Wei took his hand away, sat on the side of the bed and opened the fish fillet that Ji's mother gave him that day and began to eat.He has been reluctant to eat it, although he really wants to eat it, but it is a gift from Ji's mother, and he wants to stay for a few more days.

I'm not in a good mood now, so I opened it to eat.

"Ding Wei," Ji Xiao felt a lot better, turned around and sat facing Ding Wei, hesitated for a while, seeing that Ding Wei didn't mean to interrupt him, then continued, "I'm sorry, make you worry."

Thinking about it, he felt that it was too formal. The last time he said sorry by the lake made Ding Wei depressed for a long time, so he cleared his throat again: "Master Ding Wei, please let me go, don't be angry."

"He can't come back even if you die," Ding Wei glanced at him, then lowered his head and continued to eat fish fillets. "If he can come back, he will scold you even after you die."

Ji Xiao looked at Ding Wei in surprise, he didn't expect Ding Wei to say such a thing.

"I've been watching you from the sidelines." Ding Wei tore the fish fillets into small strips and put them in his palm, and then put them into his mouth one by one, "I can feel your feelings, what do you think about saving people today? They are saving Cui Yuanhang."

"...I don't know." Ji Xiao was a little confused.

He reached out to grab some fish fillet to eat, but Dan Ding quickly hugged the bag to his chest: "No."

"Then let me drink water." Ji Xiao smiled, got out of bed and poured himself a glass of water.

"Actually, I don't understand very well," Ding Wei bit the fish fillet, "but I remember something Chen Xiuyu said very clearly."

"Ok?"

"He said, friends should be cherished," Ding Wei patted his chest, "Cherishment is to put it here, not to die, I think so, if Su Gui, I will be like this, I don't want him to die and feel sad .”

Su Gui was sitting in the shadow of the balcony looking at the scenery downstairs. Although it was very warm, he sneezed several times in a row.He touched his arm and muttered softly, "It's not cold."

He stood up and went back to the room, took a coat and put it on, looked at the bell on the bedside, touched it lightly with his fingertips, the bell made a soft sound, and there was a faint warmth in his heart, that's great, you Be with me all the time.

I'm here with you too, right?

Ji Xiao felt that Ding Wei was quietly growing at a speed that he couldn't detect. He propped himself up on the bed and stared at Ding Wei's face. This childish and stubborn face looked the same as before, but there was something different in his heart. A big difference.

"Ding Wei," he gently kissed Ding Wei's forehead, "I found that you have grown up."

"Maybe," Ding Wei put a fish fillet into his mouth, "Good dog."

"Damn," Ji Xiao laughed, and squeezed his chin, "What are you talking about, little brat?"

"But you haven't grown up, you were chained to many years ago."

Ding Wei's words hit a certain place in Ji Xiao's heart.That's right, he has indeed been chained to the warehouse where Cui Yuanhang left. In countless late-night nightmares, Cui Yuanhang's smiling face and those blazing fires were like a cage that trapped him in place.

"You are Mao Zhezhe now, and your words are becoming more and more philosophical." Ji Xiao couldn't help but kissed him on the tip of his nose again.

"Good dog," Ding Wei squeezed another fish fillet and put it in his mouth, "Actually, if you think about it seriously, you can understand some things. When I sat there and watched you court death, I thought about it a lot."

"...I didn't seek death." Ji Xiao was a little helpless with Ding Wei's words.

"I found it." Ding Wei looked at him with certainty.

"Okay," Ji Xiao smiled, and put his arms around Ding Wei's shoulders, "I won't seek death from now on."

During dinner, Ji Xiao didn't want to go, his body was covered with injuries and his clothes were hard to wear, but Lin Zi kicked him outside the door: "Uncle Ji, go eat."

He had no choice but to stand up and glanced at Ding Wei: "Are you going to eat?"

"Don't eat, I'm full of fish fillet." Ding Wei lay on the bed, turning over and over with his pillow in his arms, looking very comfortable.

"Then I'll go eat something, or Uncle Lin will definitely bring it to me later."

"Yeah." Ding Wei jumped off the bed and hid behind the door.

Ji Xiao opened the door and went out. Lin Zi was knocking on the lunch box and waiting for him in the corridor. Seeing him coming out, he clicked his tongue: "What a beautiful sika deer."

"Fall in love with me?" Ji Xiao smiled, "Stop scolding me?"

"I'm hungry, I can't scold anymore," Lin Zi sighed, habitually trying to put his arm on Ji Xiao's shoulder, but Ji Xiao's shoulder was also injured, so he had to withdraw his hand, "I'm telling you the truth, don't In this way, how old are you, can you be more rational?"

"Don't worry, it won't happen, really." Ji Xiao patted Lin Zi.

While eating, I ran into Wu Xiaohui wandering around in the dining hall, and Wu Zhijun was still busy in the office, so she brought it to her father to cook. Lin Zi looked at Wu Xiaohui, who looked like a little adult, with emotion: "It's okay to raise a girl like this. It’s a waste of time, but it’s really sensible.”

"Who are you going to raise with? You really think too far." Ji Xiao bowed his head to eat.

"Maybe then, I'm trying to turn you into my brother-in-law."

"Uncle Lin," Ji Xiao remembered Shen Yu's plan about the child's surname Ji, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Shen Yu is a very thoughtful person..."

"Just say what you want to say." Lin Zi didn't care.

"What do you think of your son's surname Ji? Can you accept it?" Ji Xiao looked at him.

"Why? Actually, I have thought that if we can get along with your sister, she might give the child the surname Shen." Lin Zi was quite calm, and did not see any special reaction.

"Because," Ji Xiao cleared his throat, "Because if I don't get married, there will be no one surnamed Ji in my family."

Lin Zi glanced at him, put a peanut in his mouth and chewed slowly, before sighing after a long time: "Uncle Ji, you killed me, remember how much favor you owe me, I will pay you back in the future Find it slowly."

"I thought you were going to cry."

"Crying, my family is not single-handed." Lin Zi thought for a while, "We can discuss it later, just call Ji Linlin..."

"Your naming skills are truly incomparable." Ji Xiao almost spit out the soup, and he convinced Lin Zi.

Ji Xiao returned to the dormitory after eating, and as soon as he entered the door, Ding Wei rushed over and hung him around his neck: "I'll tell you one thing."

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..." Ji Xiao frowned and shouted in succession, Ding Wei's arm just pressed on his shoulder injury, "What beautiful thing makes you so excited."

Ding Wei didn't speak, just took Ji Xiao's hand and pressed it on his butt.

"It's pretty upturned." Ji Xiao grabbed his ass.

"Idiot!" Ding Wei cursed, but didn't slap his hands away, just stared at his face.

Looking at the excited light in his eyes, Ji Xiao gradually understood, and asked in a low voice: "Is the tail coming out?"
