The Monk That Wanted To Renounce Asceticism Chapter 1227 – Everyone Helps Fight the Fire

Chapter 1227: Everyone Helps Fight the Fire

“Zhao Datong, look! The Greater Khingan Ridge is on fire!” Hu Han, who was on his phone, suddenly shouted.

However, Zhao Datong remained silent. Hu Han took a look and saw Zhao Datong packing his luggage.

Hu Han said in surprise, “Datong, it’s not a holiday yet. Why are you packing your luggage?”

Only then did Zhao Datong raise his head. He said with ardor and zeal coursing through his veins, “What am I doing? I’m going to the front lines obviously!”

Hu Han was dumbfounded. “Go to the front lines? What front lines? Is there a war?”

Zhao Datong shook his head and said, “You’re just a bookworm. You only know how to watch the fun and don’t realize the crux of the matter. Look at what’s mentioned below the headline?”

Hu Han quickly scrolled to the end and subconsciously read it out. “The mountain fires are fierce and the firefighters are severely lacking in manpower and resources…”

Hu Han immediately understood what Zhao Datong was up to. He exclaimed, “You want to help fight the fire?”

Zhao Datong nodded. “That’s right! The Greater Khingan mountains are on fire. As northeasterners, how can we do nothing? Let me ask you this, are you going?”

When Hu Han heard that, he immediately stood up and said, “Yes! Why wouldn’t I? If a big fool like you knows to be a hero, how can I be worse than you? Come on, let’s go together!”

With that said, Hu Han also started packing up.

At this moment, a voice came from outside the door. “Are you going to fight the fire?”

The two of them nodded. That person said, “F**k, why didn’t you ask me to do such an awesome thing? I’ll go too?”

This guy’s voice was loud, and he even shouted in the corridor. Instantly, he seemed to stir a hornet’s nest. One by one, heads popped out from each dorm room to ask about the situation. They then started clamoring to go together.

When Hu Han saw that everyone was so enthusiastic, he hurriedly ran to the computer and shouted, “We can’t let others beat us to good stuff like this. Send a call to arms. Greater Khingan needs us! Students, charge!”

As they sent out a mass email, Ma Juan, Fang Yunjing, and the other girls knew that they were going to the Greater Khingan Ridge to fight the fire. They immediately responded.

“We girls are going too!”

Following Fang Yunjing and Ma Juan’s comments, more female students joined the call to arms.

At this moment, the school could no longer sit still. The dean was on the verge of going crazy. With so many students heading to the fire, what if something happened to them? The school could not take responsibility!

So the dean ran to find the chancellor who wasn’t around!

Only an old man was drinking tea in his office. Facing the flustered dean, he asked, “What do you want to do?”

The dean said, “Close the main entrances immediately and forbid anyone from taking leave. We have to ensure attendance and punish any truants severely. We can even withhold their graduation certificate! We have to restrain them. Otherwise, something might happen to these ignorant children when they run over and face a mountain fire!”

The old man said, “The chancellor is not around. You can handle these matters with the other teachers. However, I don’t think this is a good idea.”

The dean shook his head and said, “However, there’s no better solution right now. I’ll give the order first. No matter what, we can’t let this bunch of young punks mess around.”

With that, the dean left.

The old man chuckled and said, “Mess around? If young adults really want to mess around, who can stop them? Back when Japan invaded, students protested in the streets while facing machine guns. Countless people ended up lying in pools of blood, but they still advanced. When a war broke out, they joined the army with all that passion. Those who couldn’t join the army followed behind them to provide them support…

“Young adults? They write their youths and aspirations with blood.

“It’s a pity that there are always some people who like to claim that the younger generation is doomed. Will they? That’s not what I’m seeing…”

The dean indeed took action. He joined forces with the teachers and called for security to seal off the campus.

All the students who were preparing to set off were blocked. It seemed like everything was going smoothly!

However, after a night, the dean nearly tore out all his hair. He roared at the phone, “What? Everyone’s gone? Is there anyone left? None?! What are you doing? Can’t you stop all these people running away? What? Old Zhang who takes care of the back door ran with them? I…”

The dean wanted to curse, but he was at a loss as to what to say.

Helpless, the dean also started packing his luggage…

“What are you doing? A business trip?” his wife asked.

The dean smiled bitterly and said, “Those kids went to fight the fire, I don’t feel at ease. I have to go and take a look. I can’t let anything happen to them!”

With that said, the dean took his things and ran off.

Similarly, the other universities in the northeast were also present…

Meanwhile, on the Internet, the official Weibo page of the Greater Khingan mountains’ firefighters began having a stream of posts flood in!

“All students from the Harbin Engineering University are here to report. Requesting instructions from unified command!”

“All students from Northeast Forestry University are here to report. Requesting instructions from unified command!”

“All students from Qiqihar University…”

“All students from Jiasi University…”

“All students from Gulin University…”

“All students from Beihua University…”

…

Seeing so many students rushing to fight the fire, a staff member of the Greater Khingan Ridge Fire Department, who was in charge of managing Weibo, covered her mouth and cried. For the first time, she found it impossible to stop her tears from flowing.

Before she could reply, more comments appeared.

“I’m an employee of SC. I’ve reached the Greater Khingan Range. What should I do? Requesting instructions, I don’t know how to fight fire, but I have strength!”

“I’m from HN. I’ve been a firefighter. Requesting the organization to accept me.”

“I’m from XJ. All of my brothers have come over. We have over a hundred people, please accept our help.”

“I’m from NMG. We do a medicinal herb business and haven’t left yet. Since everyone is here, how can we skip the men from NMG?”

…

The people from all over the country gathered. Some were working locally while others were here to look for jobs. Some had been here for business…

But at this moment, everyone, no matter where they were, shouted, “I’m here!”

At that moment, the fire brigade in the Greater Khingan Range sent an order for everyone to gather in Western Can County. They would send people to command them and take collective action.

Following the notification, the Internet erupted into cheers.

More people rushed over. Private cars sped up, and the public buses were full of people. When passengers heard that whoever was heading over to fight the fire, many of them took the initiative to give up their seats and even let others jump the line at the taxi stand.

On this day, as long as you were heading to fight the fire, just waving your hand was enough to get a lift…

Taxis hung signs to provide free transportation to those involved in the rescue operations.

At the same time, when the taxi drivers rushed over, they did not drive back. Instead, they got out of their cars and followed the crowd up the mountain.

Everyone arrived—the military, the armed police, the police, the people’s police…

The goods and supplies donated by businessmen pulled up the mountain in droves of trucks. There were all kinds of fire extinguishers, large amounts of drinking water, and countless fire-resistant clothes…
