> Bright Eyes in the Dark Recap
After returning to China, Nan Chu arrived at Lushan to film Director He's movie, and she was met by Shen Guangzong and Xi Gu. At the same time, Liu Ruyi came to the Lushan fire station to visit Lin Luxiao, who went specifically to pick up his good friend. Knowing Liu Ruyi was coming, the firefighters from Heping Road Special Division Station pooled their money to buy everyone gifts.
Shao Yijiu received a small drone, Qin Shiquan received the latest anti-fall camera, and Lin Luxiao received his old uniform signed by everyone. Liu Ruyi also brought the modified shovel that Lin Luxiao had asked Lou Mingye to make, and Lin Luxiao named it the Xuejun shovel. The Lushan fire station prepared a meal to welcome Liu Ruyi. During the meal, Lin Luxiao learned about the recent lives of his former comrades at the Heping Road Special Division Station.
Yang Zhengang and Li Lei got married and Li Lei was pregnant, with the due date approaching. Liu Ruyi had also married Doctor Xia Wan, and Jiang Ge had successfully joined the special division unit as a firefighter. Everyone's lives had entered a new phase. After returning to China, Nan Chu contacted Lin Qi, who asked when she would meet her brother. Nan Chu replied that they would meet naturally when the time was right.
Before his retirement, Zhao Guo left a quote in the Lushan honor room and formally said goodbye to his former comrades. The next day, Lin Luxiao and the Lushan firefighters saw off Zhao Guo. Early in the morning, Wang Ben had gone out to buy Lushan's local sweet potato flour for Zhao Guo. Zhao Guo was very touched by everyone's gesture and solemnly entrusted the Lushan fire station to them.
Just then, the alarm rang, and Zhao Guo, who had not yet left, resolutely joined the fire rescue operation. Lin Luxiao led the firefighters to the fire scene, while Zhao Guo insisted on standing his last shift by going alone to the watchtower to observe. After everyone's efforts, the open fire was extinguished. Lin Luxiao contacted Zhao Guo to report the news.
Zhao Guo unexpectedly discovered the wind direction had changed, causing the fire to reignite on the north side of Yangjiao Ridge. If the fire continued to spread in this direction, the villages there would be in great danger. Nan Chu's film crew also spotted traces of the mountain fire. Nan Chu urged everyone to leave quickly for safety. Lin Luxiao and his team rushed to Yangjiao Ridge to continue fighting the fire, and Zhao Guo quickly reunited with them.
Seeing the fire rapidly expanding, Zhao Guo contacted the Command Center to request reinforcements and also arranged for the emergency evacuation of villagers. As the temperature was too high, the firefighters could not continue to push forward. Zhao Guo temporarily organized everyone to retreat. The Heping Road Special Division Station received the rescue notification and quickly rushed to the Lushan fire station to participate in the rescue and firefighting efforts.
Zhao Guo received a call learning that Zhang's family was trapped in the mountains. He prepared to go retrieve them, and Lin Luxiao insisted on going with him. Nan Chu tried to contact Lin Luxiao to report the fire situation near Yangjiao Ridge, but couldn't reach him due to no signal. Nan Chu then used a walkie-talkie on a public channel to call for help.
Lin Luxiao, Zhao Guo, and others followed a mountain stream and found two trapped individuals (fishermen). They quickly organized a rescue. Lin Luxiao then heard Nan Chu's distress call on the walkie-talkie. Due to the spreading mountain fire, Shen Guangzong's car had an accident on the mountain road, and Xi Gu's leg was injured.
Lin Luxiao learned their approximate location and instructed them to head downhill towards the firebreak, emphasizing safety precautions like wetting clothes, carrying water, and avoiding running with the wind or going uphill. Nan Chu heard that Lin Luxiao still needed to go deeper into the mountains to find the missing villagers. Nan Chu urged Lin Luxiao to return safely, and he promised he would.
Lin Luxiao instructed Zhao Guo to take the two rescued individuals back, while he, along with Wang Ben, Yijiu, and Shiquan, continued searching for Zhang's family. Lou Mingye led the Heping Road Special Division Station firefighters to reinforce the effort. Their mission was to hold the first line of defense, but the mountain fire spread too quickly, and the first line was soon untenable. Upon receiving the message from the Command Center, Lou Mingye organized everyone to evacuate immediately.
