Country E, in a small house east of the Living Cemetery.

Today is the tenth day since Ren Tingxi left.

During the time that Ren Tingxi was away, Lan Xiaolan tossed and turned and couldn't sleep.

Just yesterday, I had another nightmare. When I woke up in the morning, my whole body ached.

Nusi came over very early. Today she finally couldn't help herself and wanted to cook something in the kitchen herself.

The food cooked by Lan Xiaolan was really hard for her to describe.

When Ren Tingxi was around, he was always responsible for cooking, and Nusi followed him to eat and gained a lot of weight.

During the time that Ren Tingxi returned to China, she had been eating the food cooked by Lan Xiaolan, and finally she couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Xiaolan, Xiaolan, you must listen to me today and put down that pot."

"What's the matter? Let me make you some porridge today."

"No, no, no! Rice is really expensive here. Please stop wasting food. If all else fails, why don't you go to the vegetable fields by the river and pick some wild vegetables?"

As Nusi spoke, she made a please-please gesture.

Lan Xiaolan took a look, raised her eyebrows, pouted, and picked up the basket to go dig wild vegetables.

The weather today seems a little different.

Before reaching the river, we could see ants, mice, spiders, and even snakes fleeing towards the northeast mountains from a distance.

The animals moved staggeringly and swiftly, like a group of refugees preparing to flee.

Lan Xiaolan was shocked when she saw the animals' unusual behavior.

She has been living and working in the Cemetery of the Living for more than a year, and has never encountered such a strange phenomenon.

Lan Xiaolan became extremely alert and seemed to have thought of something.

Lan Xiaolan hurriedly picked a basket of wild vegetables and rushed home.

"Did something happen? Why are you so flustered?"

Lan Xiaolan didn't have time to answer Nu Si's words, and quickly opened her laptop. She seemed to have thought of something and she urgently wanted to get an answer.

Seeing Lan Xiaolan's uneasy look, Nusi was very worried.

Nusi put down what she was holding and walked over anxiously.

"What happened? Did something happen?"

"Nusi, you've lived here for so long, have you ever encountered an earthquake?"

"Earthquake?" Nusi was very surprised. Why would Lan Xiaolan ask such a question?

Lan Xiaolan stared at the computer screen intently. She vaguely remembered that when she was taking geography class, the teacher taught them in detail how to check earthquake zones and what to do before an earthquake.

Her trembling hands tapped on the keyboard, and her heart was like boiling water, gurgling and surging.

In the end, she saw the answer she didn't want to see.

"The cemetery of the living is actually located in a volcanic belt."

"Nusi, tell me quickly, has there been an earthquake here?"

"I was born here, and I've definitely never seen an earthquake here."

“But…” Nusi walked over, opened the east window, and looked out. There was a towering mountain in the north of the city.

"Do you see that high mountain? The old nun in the church said there were no mountains there before."

"A long, long time ago, the earth shook and the sky was covered in yellow sand. Legend has it that this place was punished by the gods, and a devastating disaster occurred."

"Later, the god transformed into that tall mountain, forever guarding our ancient city."

"nonsense!"

"Nusi, I remember Tingxi said that this house was built with special building materials. The structure is very solid and can withstand even an earthquake."

"Quick, Nusi, come over here and push the table to the corner, and go to the room and get the cups and pillows for defense."

Nusi was stunned for a moment in disbelief: "You mean, earthquake?"

"Hurry! I don't have time to explain too much to you."

Nusi followed Lan Xiaolan's instructions and moved the table. Lan Xiaolan immediately stuffed the computer under her pillow.

It contained all the information she had collected from her work and research in the Living Cemetery for the entire year. If the computer was damaged, it would be like the end of her life.

Suddenly, Lan Xiaolan seemed to think of something important.

"Nu Si, go to the bathroom right now, block the bathtub, and run the water!"

"That water?"

"Once an earthquake strikes, having water can save our lives."

At this time, in addition to making all necessary preparations, Lan Xiaolan also wanted to do something more important.

According to common sense, there should still be some time before the earthquake occurs. She should notify the living people in the cemetery as much as possible to minimize the number of people injured.

But what should we do? If we drive to the cemetery now and tell the people in the town that an earthquake is about to happen, the people there will be full of uneducated and ignorant people.

Everyone must think Lan Xiaolan is crazy.

Moreover, there is not enough time to go back and forth now. If an earthquake really hits, they will be trapped in the city and may even die.

Lan Xiaolan racked her brains and suddenly an idea came to her.

"I remember that Tingxi prepared a lot of fireworks in the warehouse, saying that he was waiting for Christmas so that we could set off fireworks together."

"Yes, yes, that's right."

"Go, find all the fireworks, go to an open area, and light all the fireworks."

Fortunately, the whole sky is gray now. If all the fireworks are released into the air now, it will definitely attract countless people to come out and watch out of curiosity.
