Supreme Sacred Ring, Carefree Tycoon!
In the 80s, a good-quality old Hainan Huanghuali round-backed armchair from the Qing Dynasty could be yours for just twenty yuan. Now, two million yuan o...
I don’t know how it happened, but Yang Jing suddenly remembered the joke he said to Gege when they were having a party on the yacht last night - Wife, don’t worry, we will go to the fourth location tomorrow. I have a hunch that when we get there, we might encounter something big!
"Fuck!" Yang Jing wanted to slap himself in the face.
Is this a bad omen? I was just joking with my wife. God, you didn't have to do this to me, did you? There are earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and there is also an upcoming typhoon No. 4. How can people survive this? Could it be that God can't stand this country's rogue behavior and wants to give it a warning and lesson?
Hmm, seems like I missed something?
An idea suddenly flashed through Yang Jing's mind, and his IQ of 142 quickly made him realize what he had missed!
"Damn it, we have to hurry up and leave here, it's best to go to the mountains! Such a violent undersea earthquake can trigger a huge tsunami..." Yang Jing shouted in horror.
After Yang Jing shouted like this, the faces of the crowd, who had just calmed down, changed again.
Although undersea earthquakes are terrible, in fact, the direct damage caused by undersea earthquakes to the continent or islands is not very serious, unless the epicenter of the undersea earthquake is very close to the coastline.
This sudden undersea earthquake didn't seem to be very close to the coastline, otherwise Catanduanes Island wouldn't be in this state. But even so, undersea earthquakes are still terrifying, because everyone knows that as long as the magnitude of an undersea earthquake reaches a certain level, it will inevitably trigger a secondary disaster with extremely destructive power - a tsunami.
A tsunami is a destructive wave generated in the ocean due to undersea earthquakes, undersea volcanic eruptions, undersea landslides or drastic weather changes.
The wave speed of a tsunami can reach 700 to 1,000 kilometers per hour. Because the wavelength of a tsunami can reach hundreds of kilometers and it can propagate for thousands of kilometers with little energy loss, it can even cross the ocean within a few hours.
In the vast ocean, the wave height is less than one meter, but when it reaches the shallow waters of the coast, the wavelength shortens and the wave height increases sharply, reaching tens of meters, forming a "water wall" with huge energy. When the water wall surges to the ground, it will cause huge destructive power, and everything in its way will be completely swallowed up and destroyed by this water wall.
The destructiveness of tsunamis is extremely terrifying, because tsunamis are often accompanied by undersea earthquakes. In many cases, undersea earthquakes do not cause much damage, but the tsunamis that follow can cause irreparable losses to humans. In fact, after a tsunami, the number of deaths and missing persons is far greater than the number of deaths and missing persons in an earthquake.
Not to mention the distant past, the Chilean tsunami that occurred more than half a century ago caused tens of thousands of deaths and disappearances. On May 21, 1960, the largest submarine earthquake in human history occurred on the seabed near Puerto Montt, Chile. The magnitude of this submarine earthquake was as high as 9.5, and the tsunami it caused swept across the Chilean coastline in a very short time, causing tens of thousands of people to lose their lives in an instant.
The Indian Ocean undersea earthquake that occurred fifteen years ago, on December 26, 2004, had a magnitude of 9.0 on the Richter scale. Although the earthquake did not cause much damage, the subsequent tsunami caused the largest loss to mankind in a tsunami in nearly two centuries.
The energy of the Indian Ocean submarine earthquake was equivalent to that of a thousand Hiroshima mushroom bombs, triggering a tsunami about 50 meters high. The tsunami swept across the Indian Ocean at a speed of more than half the speed of sound per hour, and eventually caused nearly 300,000 deaths and disappearances in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India and other countries around the Indian Ocean.
This is a very terrifying number, more than the number of deaths and missing persons in the Tangshan earthquake in China.
Although the magnitude of this undersea earthquake cannot be confirmed, there is no doubt that it is of a magnitude that is definitely not small. In other words, within a few minutes or tens of minutes after the earthquake, a tsunami that is likely to sweep across half of the Pacific Ocean is imminent.
If the magnitude of this undersea earthquake exceeds 8.0 on the Richter scale, then even though everyone is standing on a mountain road at an altitude of about 100 meters, they will definitely not be able to withstand the roaring tsunami. The road extends along the river valley, so they can't run along the road. One reason is that they don't know what the road conditions ahead will be like, and another more important reason is that once a tsunami comes, this kind of river valley is even more dangerous than the seaside. The tsunami blocked by the mountain will have a large amount of seawater rushing in because of the existence of the river valley as a vent, which will destroy everything along the river...
Therefore, if you want to avoid the coming tsunami, you must go upwards and go to the mountains with higher altitudes.
"BOSS, there is a private road leading to the mountain ahead. According to common sense, these private roads lead to luxury houses on the top of the mountain. The mountains where these luxury houses are located are often more than 200 meters above sea level. I think we should hide there." Bruno said, pointing to a small road more than ten meters ahead that turned towards the top of the mountain.
Yang Jing took one look and immediately said, "What are you waiting for? Get in the car, let's go up the mountain!"
As he said that, Yang Jing pulled Gege into the car. After Chris started the engine, he stepped on the accelerator. The Prado suddenly roared, rushed to the intersection and turned directly onto the small road.
