In her past life, Sheng Kangning was the classic naive girl—easily manipulated by her scheming stepmother and half-sister, blindly following their every move.

Chapter 93 Broken Leg

Four days ago, the forecast room of the National Earthquake Observatory suddenly became nervous and the phone kept ringing.

The geomagnetic records showed a large-scale downward trend, and the Meteorological Bureau also called to report that there were abnormalities in the atmosphere.

One third of the gays on the seismic station are predicting an earthquake will occur this week.

I checked the epicenter and it was in the northeast.

But more people think it won't be a big problem.

Thirty years ago, a magnitude 7.3 earthquake occurred in a small county in the northeast, with a focal depth of about 580 kilometers. However, the earthquake did not cause substantial damage to the local area. People only felt the tremors, there were no casualties, and the houses on the ground only shook for a few seconds.

An abnormality may not necessarily mean a major earthquake, and a major earthquake may not occur in the near future.

Four days later.

Chu Nanzhou and his group drove to an abandoned kiln factory on the outskirts of the county town, and suddenly heard a voice coming from deep in the silence underground.

The sound is getting louder and louder.

It was like a dull thunder rolling in from the sky.

It arrived in just a moment.

The horrible sound seemed to tear the earth apart.

Chu Nanzhou frowned: "Stop the car!"

Several people got out of the car in a hurry, and Chu Nanzhou immediately took everyone to an open area for shelter. Looking up at the dark sky, it seemed that something was flying over from the distance, a large black mass.

When I got there, I could see it clearly.

It's a bat.

Thousands of bats flew over the heads of Chu Nanzhou and his group.

"How could there be so many bats in broad daylight!" Duan Dongcheng said.

Following closely behind was a large flock of birds, pressing down like a huge black cloud.

Soon, the sound underground was like thunder, getting louder and louder.

Chu Nanzhou frowned and shouted, "Oh no, it's the sound of the ground! Go!"

Suddenly, behind Chu Nanzhou and the others, where the county town was located, a black whirlwind seemed to rush out from the depths of the earth and head straight for the sky.

There was darkness between heaven and earth.

After the tornado, the earth shook violently, and the ground beneath the feet undulated like water waves.

Chu Nanzhou and his friends watched helplessly as the houses collapsed in an instant.

The explosions continued.

There was a loud "boom!" in my ears!

As if being chopped by an enormous knife, a deep gully appeared on the left side of Chu Nanzhou and his team.

It is five or six meters deep and more than ten meters wide.

The jeep had already fallen down and was smashed into pieces.

Chu Nanzhou and his companions were blown up into the air by this force, and then fell heavily to the ground.

They all fainted.

I don’t know how long it was, Chu Nanzhou shook his head, his head was buzzing, everything he saw was dizzy, he pinched himself hard, and his mind finally became clear.

He propped himself up from the ground and looked around. Fortunately, several people were in the open space. They were just stunned and did not fall down.

Duan Dongcheng was closest to him.

Chu Nanzhou crawled over and was the first to wake Duan Dongcheng up:

"Dongcheng! Dongcheng! Wake up!"

Duan Dongcheng shook his head vigorously: "Captain, there's an earthquake!"

"Dongcheng, we have to find a way to find a place where we can make a phone call. Find Lao Wu, he is the closest to us, and ask him to send troops to rescue! Tell him that the entire county is buried! The casualties... the casualties are incalculable. Also, it would be great if we can contact Lao Zhou. Lao Zhou can send someone over, and I will go back to the city to organize a rescue team."

Duan Dongcheng stood up shakily, then staggered and fell down again.

"How are you? Where are you injured?" Chu Nanzhou asked.

Duan Dongcheng sat on the ground, his forehead covered with sweat: "My leg is broken!"

"Tang Shigang!"

"exist!"

"Dongcheng's leg is broken, can it be reattached?"

"Captain Chu, I'm sorry, I don't know how to correct bones!"

Tang Shigang got up from the ground and just stood up, there was a "puff" sound.

He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Tang Shigang raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. His face turned pale, he was injured and had difficulty breathing.

Duan Dongcheng got up from the ground, felt for a stick on the ground, propped himself up, and pointed to the location of the kiln factory:

"Captain, there's a phone at the kiln factory. I'll go try it! I'm afraid it's no longer possible to make calls from inside the county."

Tang Shigang came over:

"Captain, I'll go with Dongcheng. This is where Kang Ning and I came this morning. There's a village nearby with an old Chinese doctor. I'll take Dongcheng to see the doctor first. It would be great if he could get his bones fixed!"

"Okay, be safe!"

"Dongcheng, let me fix you first, otherwise, it will easily cause secondary damage!"

Zhou Shen just woke up, raised his hand to scrape off the dirt on his head, there was still a lot of dirt in his mouth, Zhou Shen coughed a lot, opened his eyes and met Chu Nanzhou's gaze, and smiled:

"We're not dead! That's good!"

After saying that, his face turned pale: "Company commander, Kang Ning she!"

Chu Nanzhou certainly knew that Kang Ning was still in the city, in the guesthouse.

The first thing Chu Nanzhou thought when he woke up was that there was no open place near the guesthouse where people could take shelter. If he failed to escape in time, he would be in great danger.

But he couldn't fly over now, he could only hope that Sheng Kangning was okay!

"Let's hurry back, organize a rescue team, and save people!" With the rescue team, there will be hope for those comrades buried underground!

Zhou Shen got up from the ground and saluted Chu Nanzhou: "Yes!"

The two of them ran quickly towards the county town.

Tang Shigang found a few sticks nearby. Since there was no rope, he tore his clothes into strips and used them to fix Duan Dongcheng's broken leg.

Then he helped Duan Dongcheng walk towards the village.
