Normally, the volume would be audible throughout the entire Tulou, but with the wind so strong now, making everything else rustle, it's hard to say whether they could hear it at all.
Xiao Feiran and Cheng Ye had of course heard Cheng Zhi's voice. They were just about to open the door for Cheng Zhi when she refused, saying, "It's very windy outside. You need to find something to hold the door shut, otherwise it will be blown away before I even get in."
The two people inside immediately realized that they couldn't be without a door; otherwise, they would either be blown away or freeze to death.
But they didn't have any ropes or strips of cloth in their room, so what could they use to tie themselves up?
At this moment, Cheng Ye took out her summer school pants. "Use these. Anyway, it's too cold to wear them now."
Xiao Feiran looked at the dark blue school trousers in Cheng Ye's hand. "Will this work? It's so windy outside. What if these trousers break?"
Cheng Ye ignored everyone and simply tied her school trousers to the brass ring on the door. "You have to believe me, school trousers are the most durable trousers in the world. Come on, open the door! You hold the door open, I'm going to get Cheng Zhi out!"
Xiao Feiran nodded, and as soon as he opened the door, it was flung open to its widest extent, slamming him against the wall. If it weren't for his school pants, Xiao Feiran probably would have been dragged out.
The wind was strong enough, but the impurities in the wind were also getting into his eyes. Even while clinging to the door frame, Cheng Ye couldn't open his eyes. Finally, through his groping, he found Cheng Zhi's coat, grabbed her arm, and pulled her inside.
Then Xiao Feiran quickly tried to close the door with all her might.
Cheng Ye quickly went to help, and the two of them pulled together to close the door.
Xiao Feiran didn't care about the trash on the floor or the overturned screen in the room. She quickly went over to check on Cheng Zhi.
After looking around, Cheng Zhi had no wounds or bumps on her face or head.
"How are you? Does your body hurt? Do you have any wounds?" Xiao Feiran asked, leaning close to her face.
How should Cheng Zhi be described? She's actually in pain all over her body right now.
She sat up abruptly and patted Xiao Feiran's shoulder. "I'm fine, calm down, calm down."
Xiao Feiran was clearly skeptical. "Are you sure?"
Cheng Zhi nodded, then shook her head. "I'm numb now, and I can't feel anything, but I should be fine."
Since Xiao Feiran couldn't just start dissecting her, he decided to avoid discussing that topic for now.
"What's going on outside? I heard a few 'bangs,' followed by lightning and thunder. It's so chaotic," Cheng Ye asked from the side.
Cheng Zhi recalled what had just happened, "It was about after I finished taking a shower when the wind started to pick up. Then, about seven or eight minutes later, I saw a dark whirlwind, very big and very high. I tried to dodge, but I was already blown away."
Looking at the litter on the ground—plastic bags, waste paper, and other things—Xiao Feiran wondered, "How did the wind manage to bring so much trash with it?"
Cheng Zhi raised her hand, "I have a bold guess: could this wind come from the sea? It's such a big blob! Can such a strong wind be generated on land?"
Xiao Feiran thought for a moment, then shook her head uncertainly, "But given our current position, it's unlikely we'll run into them..."
If there's a problem, ask Xiaozhi. The two of them went back to the inner room and then slipped into the space.
