At this moment, there was already a sea of ??fire behind us, and the surrounding air was billowing with heat. The exposed skin was burned by the high temperature and caused severe pain. The ghost babies quickly shuttled through the gaps in the flames, approaching us step by step.
With a sound of "Teng", the wall of fire in front of him suddenly rose to more than two meters high. In an instant, it lowered a lot. In the gap of the flames, a ghost baby jumped in with a swish, and rushed towards Xiao Liu. Xiao Liu There was a huge tremor all over his body, and he peed his pants. Brother Chun pulled off Xiao Liu's backpack and smashed it at the ghost baby. When the ghost baby saw something coming, he opened his big mouth and bit the backpack in one bite. Brother shook it twice, and the ghost baby was like an old turtle, refusing to let go. Brother Chun yelled, swung his arms, and threw the ghost baby and his backpack into the wall of fire. The smell of barbecue immediately filled the air.
Brother Chun spat at the wall of fire and said, "If you are capable again, if I meet your Grandpa Chun, I will turn you into roasted suckling pigs one by one." After Brother Chun finished speaking, he lost his center of gravity and swayed twice. Barely able to stand firm, he frowned and said to me, "Xiao Le, do you feel dizzy?"
I glanced at Brother Chun, then at Xiao Liu, and saw that Xiao Liu¡¯s face was flushed and he was breathing heavily. The air was filled with the smoke and strong stench of burning corpse oil. Xiao Liu changed from his usual bravery. This time he couldn't even pull out his gun. What was going on.
Seeing me looking at him, Xiao Liu murmured: "Xiao Le, I feel so panicked and uncomfortable. It seems like I can't breathe."
I frowned, looked around, and saw that the flames around me were not spreading, but getting smaller and smaller. I lowered my head and looked at the corpse oil at my feet, but it didn't seem to have decreased much. A feeling of fatigue came over me, and my upper eyelids immediately felt so heavy that I could hardly lift them. My heart suddenly tightened, and I looked around despite my fatigue. The flames around me were getting weaker and weaker, and I saw dozens of ghost babies jumping less than half a meter away from us. As the flames gradually extinguished, dozens more rushed in from behind.
I gasped for air, but my head hurt as if it was about to split. Although my head was groggy, my heart was clear. Xiao Liu's abnormality and Brother Chun couldn't stand still. Because we are in a confined space, the oxygen here is limited, and flame combustion requires a large amount of oxygen. We are now in a state of severe cerebral hypoxia. Movement and mind will become sluggish due to lack of oxygen.
And the most terrifying thing is not just this. I carefully observed the corpse oil on the ground, and there was no shortage of it, while the flames were getting smaller and smaller. This shows that the oxygen in the confined space has been destroyed due to the rapid fire in a short period of time. It is basically completely consumed, but this confined space is connected to the outside. This terrain structure will cause a fatal phenomenon called backfire.
When I was very young, I saw with my own eyes the destructive power of backfire. It was a fire accident at the School of Archeology. I happened to be trapped in it. The firefighters rescued me from the besieged room. When I almost walked to the door, , the raging fire around me suddenly went out in an instant. Just when I was surprised that I was saved, I heard the firefighters shouting in horror: "Run." Although I didn't understand at the time, I still followed the adults' instructions. I rushed towards the door crazily. Suddenly, a wave of hot air burst out from behind me, and the firefighters who rescued me were instantly burned to charcoal behind me.
The scene at that time has always troubled me. Although the fire has been extinguished, why would a stronger flame burst out in an instant. When I grew older, I consulted a professional and found out that this was backfire.
The oxygen stored in the space is limited. A fire in a short period of time can quickly burn out the oxygen. The flame will be extinguished in a short period of time, but the surrounding temperature is still at the ignition point. When the outside air comes in again, it will burn out in a few seconds. Inside, a fire burned more violently than before.
And the situation we are facing is exactly the same as what I experienced back then. But now, the exit is blocked by the ghost baby. It is impossible to run out. Now we can only choose between roasting chicken or being cut into pieces by the ghost baby. I feel very unwilling to do so. I lower my head. I looked around at the surrounding terrain again, and suddenly, I was attracted by a pool of yellow water on the ground. Isn't this the puddle of Xiao Liu's urine?
I immediately took off my coat, spread it on the ground, and absorbed the urine. Xiao Liu peed a lot, and soon his clothes were soaked. I raised my head, glanced at Brother Chun and said loudly: "Take off your clothes and pee up, hurry up."
Brother Chun looked at me in surprise with his eyes wide open. Seeing my serious face, he didn¡¯t say anything nonsense. He took off his coat and started peeing. I saw that Brother Chun's clothes were also soaked.
Brother Chun picked up the clothes suspiciously and was about to speak. Suddenly, the surrounding flames went out in an instant, and the surrounding area was suddenly dark, with only the demon core emitting a faint light.
I grabbed Xiao Liu and shouted: "He rushed behind the demon core, put on his clothes and lay down. "
After saying that, he swooped behind the demon core and put his urine-soaked coats on me and Xiao Liu. Seeing me jumping behind the demon core, Brother Chun hurriedly followed me. As soon as he put on his urine-soaked coat, a wave of hot air hit us from behind.
I clearly heard the sound of burning skin and flesh coming from behind me, accompanied by the heart-rending cry of the baby. After waiting for a few seconds, Brother Chun stuck his head out of his clothes, looked back, then stretched out his hand to grab me, and asked: "Xiao Le, the ghost babies are all burned to death, what's going on. "
I reached out and touched the clothes on my back. The moisture on the clothes had been evaporated by the high temperature just now. I touched the dry clothes tremblingly, looked up at Brother Chun and said, "This is backfire, we were almost like those ghost babies just now."
When Xiao Liu heard that the ghost babies were gone, he immediately jumped out from under his clothes. He shook his head and said, "I don't feel dizzy now. Xiao Le, I was really uncomfortable just now."
I whispered: "A lot of air has just come in in a short period of time, but the fire will be much bigger than before. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to get out now."
"Xiao Liu glanced at me in surprise, then looked back behind him, then turned his head sharply and said, "No, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out."
I turned around in horror. The thick smoke billowing behind me made me cough loudly. There was not even an inch of space on the ground behind me. The corpse oil on the ground gradually melted due to the high temperature, which accelerated the burning of the flames. I reluctantly took a look at the flames behind me. They were more than three meters high. We were really trapped this time.
