Chapter 345

Soon, a large amount of thick fog floated inside.

These thick fogs were a mixture of coal burning and water evaporation.

There was more and more thick fog, and the moment the flames appeared in his field of vision, the fatty sat on the ground.

Muttering to himself: "It's over!"

Everything came so fast, he suddenly wanted to slap himself.

Just now Fang Yang stopped him from stopping the conveyor belt, but he didn't listen to his advice, and regret and anxiety flooded his heart.

In the thick fog, he saw the workers of the coal washing plant running out in a swarm, shouting non-stop: "Fire! Come and put out the fire!"

But the problem was what to use to put it out; no one had ever thought that a fire would occur on an open-air conveyor belt.

They were fully armed, but something went wrong with their eyes, and there was no way to defend against it.

Fortunately, the workers below evacuated in time and cut off the fire from continuing to burn downward.

But the fire in the coal washing plant burned completely, and all the surrounding buildings were burned by the high-temperature flames.

The scene emitted thick black smoke, and at the same time, it carried a pungent smell.

Because today is anticyclone weather, after the thick smoke floated to a certain height, it began to spread and descend.

For a time, the visibility around decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Fang Yang and others could only stand there foolishly; after all, it was impossible for individuals to extinguish a fire of this magnitude.

However, it never rains but it pours.

The fire in the coal washing plant gradually burned and extended all the way to the coal bunker.

Now the flames, which were originally unstoppable, seemed to be stimulated, and the powerful flames illuminated the vicinity.

The warehouse building above made creaking sounds, and not long after, it collapsed with a bang.

Thus, one after another, real small flame mountains appeared in front of everyone.

The scene was filled with thick smoke, blocking the sky and the sun, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Many people were choked by this pungent smell until tears streamed down their faces.

Fang Yang immediately turned and shouted: "Cover your nose and mouth, this smoke is poisonous, everyone stay away from here!"

After speaking, he took the lead and ran wildly down the mountain, trying to stay away from this place.

Everyone covered their noses and mouths with their clothes and followed closely behind.

But they found that the fog, which was already very thick, was getting thicker and thicker; they could see forty meters away before.

Now they couldn't even see ten meters clearly.

Many people coughed while running, and some villagers with a history of allergies even had sudden asthma and gasped for air.

Fang Yang stopped and said: "First feel his pocket to see if there is any medicine, leave here first, and find a place with better air."

As a result, after feeling around, there was nothing. This kind of allergic asthma is sudden, mainly because of the stimulation of thick smoke, and he didn't expect this to happen either.

Team Leader Wang personally carried him on his back to leave here together.

Fortunately, the villagers nearby didn't live far away, the air in the room was relatively better, and after turning on the electric fan to help ventilate, the allergy gradually subsided.

Fang Yang looked at the scene outside the window. As the fire continued to burn, the thick fog nearby became more and more severe. Looking through the window, he couldn't see what it was like outside at all.

If it continues at this rate, it won't be long before the thick fog spreads to other areas.

Judging from the storage capacity of the coal bunker, even if the fire brigade arrives, it will definitely not be easy to put out the fire.

The only fortunate thing is that the mine shaft below did not continue to burn, which is the most difficult place to deal with.

"Team Leader Wang, I think you'd better notify the city side. I'm afraid this fire won't be easy to put out, and once it burns for a long time, the whole city will probably suffer. This is not just as simple as smog; these fogs are poisonous."

"On one hand, it will cause many people to be poisoned. On the other hand, in such an environment, it is difficult to guarantee that those criminals will not take the opportunity to do some illegal things! Furthermore, vehicles cannot pass normally, which is very easy to cause traffic accidents."

"If you notify them in advance to be prepared, it won't lead to a major disaster!"

Team Leader Wang's expression changed in shock.

He had been thinking about how to deal with the disaster here just now and didn't think about the smog spreading to the city at all.

The cameraman asked in confusion: "It shouldn't be, right? So far away, can it float over?"

Fang Yang shook his head: "In normal times, it wouldn't, but today is different. Today, the temperature above the sky is higher than below, forming an anticyclone. All the smog is pressed to the ground and cannot disperse."

"Haven't you noticed that you can't see anything outside? Just imagine, once it's like this in the city, you can't see people even a meter away. How terrifying that is. Even if there is a robbery, no one can see it!"

——【Damn, after listening to Fang Yang's analysis, it's terrifying to think about. My attention has always been on this fire, but as long as there are no casualties, this is at most burning some coal, and there won't be too much loss. But now I realize that this is not fog; this is poisonous smoke that eats people.】

——【I can already imagine that scene. Walking on the street and bumping into a utility pole, you probably wouldn't even know. Suddenly someone appears with a knife and kills you, and I reckon no one would know! Not to mention solving the case; by then, the streets will be full of criminals.】

——【Don't forget there are cars. In this situation, I reckon there will be car accidents everywhere in the city. To put it mildly, you can't even see the license plates of other people's cars. It's impossible to drive. If you force a stop, just wait for a pile-up.】

——【There is also a coal-fired power plant in our city. The big chimneys are puffing smoke non-stop every day, and thick fog rises at every turn. It's fine on sunny days, but once it's a foggy day, it's simply impossible to see the road unless the sun comes out.】

After listening to Fang Yang's analysis, Team Leader Wang finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

It can be said that today's thick fog looks harmless, and it looks less dangerous than yesterday's explosion, and they cannot be mentioned in the same breath.

But the negative impact it brings is even greater than an earthquake!

Indeed, as Fang Yang said, in such a situation with extremely low visibility, even if there is a robbery, the police can't do anything about them.

And this large-scale spread of poisonous gas directly leads to indiscriminate attacks on the whole city, and everyone may experience poisoning.

This is like dropping a super-sized poison gas bomb on Xihe City during wartime!

Thinking of this, his whole body couldn't help but tremble.

The harm brought by this fire is far more terrifying than he imagined.

After coming to his senses, he immediately took out his phone and dialed the mayor's number to explain the reason clearly.

The mayor was in a meeting because of today's smog, discussing how to deal with the power plant problem.

After answering the phone, he looked at the slightly dissipated smog outside the house and frowned.

As mayor, he had never thought that one day thick fog would become a disaster.

This had exceeded his cognition.

But he had to believe it because this theory was put forward by Fang Yang.

If the situation he said really appears by then, it might be too late to remedy it.

After all, in a situation with extremely low visibility, vehicles cannot pass, and walking is difficult. I reckon the whole city will be in a state of paralysis.

By then, it will really be calling to heaven and heaven not responding, calling to earth and earth not responding.

After returning to his seat, the mayor immediately said: "No need to discuss, the power plant must be demolished, but we have to wait until the nuclear power plant is built. Let's end the meeting today. You go back and talk about the specific demolition matters. I have another meeting, let's disperse!"

The people at the table were dumbfounded. They were just discussing passionately, but after the mayor made a phone call, it was settled.

Seeing the mayor's attitude, they also knew there was nothing to say, so they could only pack up their things and go back to discuss how to demolish it.

Immediately after, the mayor looked at the secretary and ordered: "Immediately go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the traffic police, and the director of the Health Bureau, and call them all over for an emergency online meeting."

The secretary nodded hurriedly: "Yes!"

Not long after, the avatars of several people appeared in the video connection.

The mayor didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the topic.

"Just received news that a major fire occurred at the coal yard in the suburbs. Team Leader Wang called to say that they can't even see their fingers there, and it's full of poisonous smoke from burning coal."

"Fang Yang analyzed that the fire cannot be put out for a while, and the poisonous smoke will gradually spread and eventually float to the city here."

The directors in the video froze when they heard this, and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

The mayor also gave instructions at the same time: "The police station should immediately mobilize all personnel, wear masks, patrol the city to persuade citizens to go home, close doors and windows, and avoid contact with poisonous smoke. Strive to clear the streets of people. In addition, apps and TVs should all send messages to notify."

"The main task of the traffic police brigade here is to maintain order on the street. Once the poisonous smoke comes, it is very likely to cause car accidents. To avoid accidents, block all roads in the city in an emergency and prohibit vehicles from passing."

"The Health Bureau should hurry up and prepare medicines for complications caused by poisonous smoke, and major hospitals should open green channels. In case of large-scale poisoning, they must be able to provide treatment in an orderly manner."

With the orders issued, special vehicles in the city were once again all over the streets.

The fire brigade had already arrived at the scene, and a dozen huge water jets were spraying water at the coal mountain to put out the fire.

This time it was different from the previous coal mine. Because the deep burning of the coal mine could not be extinguished with water, and it would induce other coal seams to burn, so it could only be blocked with mud to block oxygen.

This time, it only needs to be continuously injected with a large amount of water.

However, with the evaporation of heat, fog and thick smoke were mixed together more and more.

They couldn't rise to the sky and could only move towards the urban area on a large scale.

Every firefighter was wearing a gas mask and carrying an oxygen tank.

Facing the several burning coal mountains, these few water jets really looked like a drop in the bucket.
