The crowd around them rushed towards the safety exit. At this moment, Lin Li was standing close to the wall, chatting with Zhang Yuxi with a calm expression.
“Although you are a practitioner, you can deal with the current fire better than ordinary people.
But fire and water are ruthless, it is better to get out of danger as early as possible... to avoid any accidents. ." Zhang Yuxi reminded.
"Okay, I will listen to you, I will leave the department store now..." Seeing Zhang Yuxi so worried, Lin Li said nothing more and responded according to the other party's wishes.
"Then I will go back to find you now..." Zhang Yuxi said.
"You don't have to come here to find me. I can leave from the department store in a moment. You should go home quickly and see how your mother is injured..." Lin Li persuaded.
Zhang Yuxi thought for a while and changed her mind, "Okay, then send me a message after you come out of the department store."
"Yes." Lin Li nodded, Then ended the call.
The scene is still noisy. After all, the situation is out of control now. Everyone is scrambling to leave this dangerous place. This has caused everyone to be blocked at the exit, and the efficiency of leaving is greatly improved. of reduction.
After calling Zhang Yuxi, Lin Li put away his phone and looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, sighing inwardly.
Then he walked into the crowd, pushed aside the panicked passers-by who were blocking his way, walked a dozen steps forward, came to the fence, and lowered his head to look down.
The middle space in the department store is empty. Looking downstairs from the sixth floor, you can see some of the conditions on the second floor.
On the second floor where the fire broke out, black smoke was pouring out at the moment. According to the smoke situation, it can be known that, as the radio said, the fire on the second floor was not serious.
Looking further down, you can see that the hall on the first floor is packed with people.
Although these people came to the lobby on the first floor and the exit of the department store was not far away, people did not calm down and still rushed forward, eager to leave the department store and run outside. .
"If someone falls down, he will definitely be trampled by the panicked crowd..."
Lin Li lowered his head to observe downstairs for a while, thinking in his heart.
Not long after the idea came to him, there was a woman with a child in the lobby on the first floor. She lost her footing and fell.
The little boy held in the woman's arms was not very old, only two or three years old. He had never seen such a scene before and was so frightened that he burst into tears.
"Get out of the way, don't step on my feet." The fallen woman just comforted the little boy in her arms for a few words before she felt a sharp pain.
After screaming in pain, he shouted to the people around him.
However, in this chaotic scene, others want to make way for the vacant position without stepping on the fallen woman, but they are unable to do so.
"Someone has fallen, don't squeeze me, please step back." Several people around shouted loudly, but the people behind were still pushing forward.
"I'm really afraid of what will happen." Lin Li muttered as he watched what happened on the first floor. Then he directly stepped over the fence and climbed down from the sixth floor with great agility.
Not far away, a young man with blond hair was squeezed into a corner by the panicked crowd. He saw Lin Li crossing the fence and heading downstairs.
"Damn it, how could something like this happen..."
Originally he wanted to complete the task tonight, but now such an accident happened, and with such a chaotic scene in front of him, it was obvious that he wanted to complete the task again. It's impossible.
“Why didn’t Ms. Su and his colleagues come out of the restaurant?”
The young man with dyed blond hair discovered a strange thing, that is, eating in the seafood buffet restaurant Su Yue and Wang Jiao have not appeared yet.
Logically speaking, after the announcement from the department store rang just now, they should have come out of the restaurant quickly.
But a while has passed, and they are nowhere to be seen.
In the seafood buffet restaurant, Su Yue and Wang Jiao had already finished eating.
When they were about to leave, they were told that the restaurant had a new massage service, and they could try it now for only a quarter of the original price.
Su Yue and Wang Jiao, who had eaten and drank enough, heard the waiter say this and thought that the price was so cheap that they could try it out.
So, the two of them followed the waiter to the back door of the restaurant and arrived at another place specializing in massage services.
There were two beds in the room. Su Yue and Wang Jiao changed their clothes and lay down, and then two experienced technicians began to serve them.
The skillful skills were full of praise. Su Yue and Wang Jiao felt so comfortable that they fell asleep in the end.
After more than an hour of service, there were still about fifty minutes left. When the two technicians saw that the customer fell asleep after the massage, they quietly left the room to serve other customers.
What happened next was too sudden. When they learned that there was a fire in the department store, the staff forgot to notify Su Yue and Wang Jiao who were sleeping in the room and ran away.
The soundproofing effect of the room the two of them were in was very good, and the noisy sounds outside were perfectly isolated. They didn't know anything and continued to sleep comfortably.
"Buzz..."
In the quiet room, Su Yue's eyelashes trembled as she fell asleep on the bed, and then a pale golden light appeared in her Dantian, and spiritual energy rippled outward from her body. diffusion.
Threads of white mist were born out of thin air, quickly filling the entire room.
When the room was filled with thick white mist, the white mist in the room began to spread outward through the crack in the door.
…………
In the chaotic lobby on the first floor, the fallen woman was protecting her child and shouting continuously.
When the people around heard her shouts, they stepped back hard, trying to make way for the fallen woman so that she could stand up.
Unfortunately, after a lot of hard work, the people around the fallen woman not only failed to make room, but were squeezed by the people behind and stepped on the fallen woman a few times.
"Someone has fallen, step back!" the middle-aged man shouted anxiously.
The next second, he was pushed by the huge force behind him and fell down.
The moment he fell to the ground, in order to avoid being trampled to death, he quickly curled up and continued to shout loudly.
“Don’t crowd, don’t step on me.”
Situations similar to falling are constantly happening at the scene. If the situation is not changed, casualties are inevitable.
"Boom..."
At this moment, there was another explosion where the fire broke out on the second floor.
The current chaotic situation was caused by the fire, and when the explosion occurred again, it aggravated the seriousness of the situation.
"Hurry up! The fire is getting bigger and bigger." Seeing more and more black smoke coming out of the fire place, people who were still a long way from the exit were very panicked and panicked. Yelling, he kept pushing the person in front of him with his hands.
Lin Li climbed down from the sixth floor. When he reached the second floor, he took a look at the place where the fire broke out and found that the explosion just now intensified the spread of the fire.
“The situation may be worse than I thought!”
“It has been a while since the fire broke out, and the firefighters should be arriving soon...”
"If we fail to put out the fire before it expands further, the consequences will be serious."
Lin Li thought quickly in his mind, then kicked off the wall with both feet and jumped to the first floor. On the high platform in the corner of the hall.
Looking condescendingly at the place where someone fell in the hall, and after quickly looking around, he was ready to rescue these fallen people.
Just when Lin Li was about to take action, he suddenly sensed something abnormal behind him, so he turned back to look.
“Eh?!!!”
At this moment, a large amount of white fog appeared on the sixth floor of the department store, and then the white fog spread rapidly.
The moment Lin Li saw the white mist, a hazy figure appeared in his mind. "The hateful woman who attacked me at night appeared..."
"Huh..."
A breeze blew in the department store, and white mist spread around. The spread accelerated in an instant, and its speed was so fast that those who saw it were stunned.
In just a few seconds, the entire department store was enveloped in thick white mist, and after the white mist enveloped the entire department store, it was still spreading outwards.
Seeing a fire break out in Zhi Department Store, passers-by were watching on the street, holding mobile phones in their hands to take pictures of the red fire and black smoke that appeared at the scene.
At this time, everyone discovered that thick white fog was coming out of the department store.
The black smoke produced by the fire was completely different from the thick white fog we saw now. Everyone was full of doubts and whispered among themselves.
In the department store, the flames on the second floor were originally expanding outward.
As a result, these flames were extinguished after being shrouded in white mist.
A hazy silhouette appeared above the hall on the first floor, looking down at the chaotic scene taking place in the hall on the first floor.
“Buzz…”
With this figure floating in mid-air as the center, an invisible force field spread out.
The chaotic scene seemed to have pressed the pause button for a moment. Everyone stopped in place, unable to move.
"This ability is so powerful." Standing on the high platform, Lin Li felt the powerful force acting on him and muttered to himself.
He tried to move his hands and found that although he was temporarily restricted, as long as he exerted force, he could still break the huge force acting on him.
“Why can’t I move? What’s going on?”
It’s not just the people in the lobby on the first floor who can’t move, but the entire department store.
Everyone who was originally frightened by the fire had this strange thing happening to them, which intensified their fear.
Fortunately, no one can move now, which prevents the dangerous stampede from happening further and worsening.
In the lobby on the first floor, some people who accidentally fell to the ground floated up, and then were placed upright like objects.
"Bang."
When the fallen people all stood up under the influence of external force, an extremely loud sound exploded in everyone's ears.
“Bang.”
The door at the department store exit disappeared, and the exit expanded in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, people who were startled by the loud noise actually flew up.
“Ah...”
“Help!”
“Who will save me...”
People who didn't know what was going on were screaming in panic. If they hadn't been unable to move now, they would have moved their hands and feet.
"Hey, what are you doing? Why don't you stop quickly..."
A voice came from the side, and the hazy figure in the white mist slowly turned its head and passed forward. Come and look at the location of the sound.
Lin Li heard the panicked shouts of the people, and immediately used his strength to break free from the power that restrained him, then flew into the air, approached the opponent and shouted.
"..." The hazy figure in the white mist looked at Lin Li without saying anything. Lin Li frowned at her reaction.
"Ah..."
The screams became louder.
Lin Li was blocked by the white fog and could not see clearly what was happening in the distance.
After hearing these screams, he thought those ordinary people were injured and took action immediately.
Mobilizing the spiritual energy in Dantian, a pale golden light immediately appeared on the raised right hand.
He punched in the air, and the fierce air wave rushed towards the hazy figure in the white mist.
“Bang.”
Facing Lin Li’s tentative attack, the hazy figure in the white mist dodged aside.
The ferocious air wave hit the far wall, making a dull sound.
“Ah...”
The frightened shouts quickly faded away, and Lin Li frowned as he couldn't see what was going on in the distance.
"With your current level of cultivation, it would be too embarrassing to attack innocent ordinary people for no reason!"
"..." The hazy figure in the white mist There was still no response to Lin Li's statement, which made Lin Li wonder if this guy was mute.
But the next second, he gave up his guess.
Because after a practitioner breaks through to the third level, his mental power further transforms. Even a mute can use his mental power to communicate with others.
Just as the two people were confronting each other, everyone in the hall on the first floor disappeared.
At this time, Lin Li, who looked serious, vaguely heard the sound of surprise coming from the distance.
"We seem to have come out..."
The people who disappeared in the lobby on the first floor fell from mid-air. At this time, they found that they could move again.
Then some people looked at the ground and found that they seemed to have come out of a department store.
Encountering a fire and surviving a catastrophe, everyone was extremely excited and shouted loudly with joy.
"Uh..." Lin Li listened to the shouts coming from outside the department store, and then he realized that what the woman in front of him had just done was to send people away.
“I didn’t expect you to be a good person!”
“…” The hazy figure in the white mist looked at Lin Li silently. Lin Li was powerless to react to her reaction. Complained.
Then he asked, "Why did you attack me last night?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the fog around the hazy figure in the white fog began to thicken.
Lin Li saw this situation and knew that the other party was trying to escape, so he rushed forward quickly.
"Bang."
A fierce wave of air rushed toward Lin Li. Seeing this, Lin Li quickly raised his hands and crossed them in front of him.
After being hit by the air wave, Lin Li flew backwards and hit the wall, cracking the tiles on the wall.
