Chapter 353 Many things can be prepared in advance

Shen Yanming nodded, then got back into the car and drove directly to the foot of Qingning Mountain.

They were considered late in coming back, and there were already several rows of cars neatly lined up at the foot of the mountain.

Shen Yanming did not park next to them, but found a corner far away from the foot of the mountain and parked the car there.

After parking the car, the two took out the folding tent, folding stool, small quilt, flashlight, etc. from the trunk and went up to Green Lemon Mountain. As for food, they would take it from Qiao An's bag. The situation on the first day was unclear, so it was better to keep a low profile.

But in fact, they were still too high-profile. Because among the people who took refuge on Green Lemon Mountain, few were as well prepared as they were. Most of them just sat on the ground, using a piece of waste paper as a cushion.

Moreover, it can be seen that many people came out in a hurry, empty-handed, and wearing suspender slippers, which could easily expose themselves if they are not careful.

Shen Yanming chose a place with fewer people. He put the things in his hands on the lawn, then set up the tent on the concrete road.

That's why they chose the front mountain instead of the back mountain. The front mountain has been developed, so there are many cement paths, and there won't be too many insects and ants if you set up your tent there. But the back mountain is overgrown with weeds, and you never know where a rat snake might be.

Of course, there was also the reason that everyone was staying in the front mountain. Although the two of them liked quietness, if they were isolated in an environment with no information, they would really go crazy.

It was like they couldn't stand being in the car for a while without the internet. Now, they were eager to chat or listen to others chatting.

Because the two of them were so conspicuous, someone came over to chat with them while Shen Yanming was setting up the tent.

"Little girl, how come you have such complete equipment? Did you go back to the building to get the things?" asked an old man, fanning himself.

"No, we usually keep these in the car just to be prepared for emergencies like this."

The old man was surprised. "How can this be possible? Where did you come back from? You look quite well dressed. What's going on outside?"

When the old man asked this, Bi Qiaoan found that several pairs of ears around him pricked up. It seemed that many people here had just left their homes and didn't know the situation in the outside world.

Bi Qiaoan briefly described the situation outside. "Most of the houses outside didn't collapse, but there were cracks on the walls. A lot of glass was broken, and the GG sign fell to the ground. The streets were either cracked or blocked by bricks and stones. We took several detours before we got back."

"What about the people? What about the casualties?"

Bi Qiaoan shook his head, "I don't know about this."

Shen Yanming had just set up the tent and happened to hear this, so he interrupted: “It’s probably okay. Few buildings outside have completely collapsed. There should be some injuries, but the death toll is estimated to be small.”

"That's good, that's good!" After hearing this, everyone patted their chests and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he asked Shen Yanming, "What else have you prepared?"

"Matches, candles, safety ropes, first aid kits, and some food. The climate is so strange now, it's hard to say what will happen in the next second. Everyone should carry some necessary items with them in the future." Shen Yanming reminded.

"Yes, just like me, I ran out in a hurry without even changing my clothes!" The woman originally had her arms crossed over her chest, but now it was getting dark and no one was lighting up, so she didn't cover them.

Bi Qiaoan took a look and found that the woman was wearing a suspender nightgown with nothing underneath. No wonder she was hugging her chest just now, it was really embarrassing.

She bent down and hid in the tent. Using her bag as a cover, she took out a towel and quietly put it into the woman's hand. She said softly, "Someone might light a candle in a while. Turn on the flashlight. You can wrap it around your neck."

The woman immediately put the towel on her chest and said gratefully, "Thank you!"

Bi Qiaoan waved his hand, "It's all a small matter, I just lend it to you. You can prepare a bag and put it at the door with escape supplies in it. If you encounter an emergency, you can just carry it on your back and leave without spending time packing or anything."

"Oh yeah, that's a good idea! I'll do that next time!"

When Bi Qiaoan spoke, he did not lower his voice deliberately, so the people around him heard it. But if they could really do it, they might be able to survive in a crisis by relying on the supplies in the bag.

"Oh, are you the owner of that fighting goose?" At this time, a little boy exclaimed.

Bi Qiaoan was a little surprised. It was already dark and her facial features could no longer be seen. How did he recognize her?

Since he had doubts, Bi Qiaoan asked directly, "Yes, how did you recognize me?"

"Because, because, the owner of that goose has a big belly just like you!"

(⊙o⊙)…big belly….Because I’m pregnant, I’m considered the owner of the goose? I would not have admitted it if I had known!

"Where's the goose? Why can't I see it?"

"It's at home. I didn't bring it out." Bi Qiaoan told the truth.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, the little boy burst into tears. Bi Qiaoan was frightened and took a step back, but Shen Yanming supported her in time.

"The big white goose will die. What if an earthquake buries the big white goose?"

The boy cried so loudly that the attention of everyone who was chatting was immediately drawn to him.

The boy's mother naturally heard her son's cry, so she quickly stepped forward and said, "I'm sorry, my baby is a big fan of your goose. He always talks about it several times at home every day, saying that the goose is really great.

I came here to seek refuge today, thinking I could get close to the goose. I didn’t expect you to not bring it out.”

Bi Qiaoan felt that she needed to explain, otherwise people would think that the couple were too heartless.

“Well, we came back directly from work and hadn’t visited the house yet, so the big goose was still at home.

We thought we would wait a little longer, and if there were no aftershocks, we would go home to pack up some things and bring the goose out with us. A goose alone experiencing an earthquake at home would probably be frightened too!"

"Oh, so that's how it is. I thought you were so busy escaping that you forgot about it." Look, look, there are really people who think so, and I guess they are not a minority.

"How could that be? The goose is a member of our family. My husband and I like it very much."

"Or, you'd better not go back. It's too dangerous. What if there is an aftershock? What will happen to your big belly?" After knowing that the abandonment was not intentional, some people began to persuade them.

Bi Qiaoan smiled and said, "I can't go back if I want to. My physical condition doesn't allow it. As for my husband, we'll have to wait and see. It may not be certain."
