Fu Xiao lay quietly on the kang, not falling asleep.
There were also tens of thousands of people in Hebei who were not asleep.
Because the feeling was so strong, the dog in the house broke free from the leash and ran out, barking at people.
People are smart.
Anything that is too abnormal suggests that something unusual may happen.
Many people walked out of their houses carrying food from their homes.
Under the moonlight.
The streets and open spaces were filled with people.
One by one, they came to the open space carrying food and bedding.
"Old man, hurry up,"
A gray-haired old woman was urging the old man behind her.
The old man agreed and walked out of the room tremblingly, "I know, it's just sleeping on the curb, what's the big deal?"
"We have to be good to each other, nothing can happen to us, otherwise we will be left with only our son."
The old woman waited for the old man to come forward, and they supported each other as they walked forward.
"Old lady, do you miss your son?" The old man looked at the old woman with a smile, "That brat has been a soldier for many years and he doesn't even come back to visit. Next time he comes back, I'll beat him up."
The old woman laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared. "You stubborn old man, wasn't it you who asked him to go?"
The two of them supported each other and walked to the center of the crowd.
Seeing the two, the captain hurried over and found a good place for the two elderly people to rest.
The newly married couple, the girl was still wearing red clothes, the boy was holding the girl's dowry box, and the girl was holding a quilt, and they walked out of the room.
I met up with my parents at the door and walked towards the open space in the village together.
Pregnant Ah Xiang stuffed the only fifty yuan left in the house into her pocket, and walked out holding the hand of a little boy of three or four years old next to her.
"Mom, where are we going?"
Ah Xiang smiled gently: "Mom will take you to sleep outside today, okay?"
The little boy yawned in a baby voice, "Okay..."
Villagers from all over the country went out of their homes under the organization of the team leader.
Arrived at the open space in the village.
Some people suddenly realized something, some people thought it was fun and gathered together with the people around them to chat and talk.
Two o'clock in the morning...
In the county town.
The county leaders took the continuous tremors seriously and called the brigades in various areas. Many people in the county came to the open space spontaneously without waiting to be evacuated.
Some people believe it firmly and pray silently.
Some people didn't believe it, but since everyone else was out, they followed them out too. Sleeping outside was also a good experience.
Fu Xiao kept looking at the watch and watched the time pass by little by little.
Slowly, time stopped at 3:40...
41...
42...
For a moment, her heart seemed to stop.
She took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Dust..."
“It’s settled…!!!!”
The whole city trembled instantly.
A mournful cry seemed to come from underground, waking everyone up.
A blue light suddenly appeared in the sky, illuminating the darkness. Before anyone could react...
In an instant, the sky fell and the earth collapsed.
Almost in an instant, everything stopped and the surroundings became ruins.
People in Beijing also seemed to feel the shaking.
On the city wall, the tall beams and pillars creaked spasmodically.
At this moment, people all over the earth felt an unusual shake and were filled with fear.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Some of the survivors cried loudly, while others laughed loudly.
Every sound seemed to celebrate being alive.
Beijing Military District compound.
Feeling the shaking, Mr. Mu quickly got up from the bed and walked outside.
The guards quickly came over and supported him.
At this moment, there were already a lot of people gathered outside. Zhai Jiu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Mr. Mu coming out.
He acted quickly and called a few familiar people in the military region to go out and get information.
"The telephone lines are down and we can't make calls," someone said.
Zhai Jiu said solemnly: "Then let's go out of the compound and ask..."
Mr. Mu's hands trembled slightly, fear flashed in his sharp eyes, but his face was solemn. He looked at Mr. Zhai and said in a trembling voice: "Prepare the car..."
At times like this, the old friends should be together.
Among the contacts sent from Beijing to the whole country, the telephone communication in only one area was interrupted. After several calls, there was no response.
At the same time, the troops stationed in the surrounding areas are ready to go.
Soon, the first batch of rescuers arrived.
Fortunately, despite such a major natural disaster, the number of victims was not that large.
Wherever we went, there were broken walls and ruins everywhere, but there were also people everywhere.
They either hugged each other and cried, or searched for their homes among the ruins.
But they are still alive...
They were all terrified, but fortunately...
Fortunately, they had received so many warnings in advance, otherwise they would definitely be under the ruins by now.
But there are always unexpected things.
Some people were crying and complaining that their family members had gone into the room to get something and had not come out yet.
Some people didn't take the matter seriously at all and could not open their eyes in their sleep.
Also, there are those who did not receive the message.
In short, even if Fu Xiao tried her best, she couldn't save everyone when a natural disaster struck.
Grandpa Fu, who sensed the noise at home, came out of the room and woke up everyone in the family.
He held an iron basin and knocked it with a stick, as if to wake up the whole village.
