Chapter 854 Is there any hope for this world?
The search and rescue lasted for a day and a night. Lu Ting, with hundreds of people and the cooperation of Gu Luan and Jiang Xian, rescued more than 300 people.
The number seems like a lot, but in fact, the moment the search and rescue was stopped, countless people couldn't stop crying.
You have to know that there were at least several thousand people nearby, but in the end only more than three hundred people were rescued.
Most of them are injured, and under such circumstances, it is still a question whether they can survive.
After returning to the base, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian forced themselves to wash up.
Because all the houses on the base collapsed, they could only rest in makeshift tents.
The two were very tired, and although the environment was not suitable for rest, they fell asleep soon.
After sleeping for nearly a whole day, Jiang Xian finally recovered.
Looking at Gu Luan who was sleeping beside him, he got up, changed his clothes, took out iodine and gauze and applied medicine to Gu Luan.
Gu Luan looked at him in a daze.
"It's okay. I'll change the medicine for you. Go to sleep."
Jiang Xian slowed down his movements and Gu Luan fell asleep again.
After changing the medicine, Jiang Xian walked out of the tent.
Lu Ting was standing not far away, smoking a cigarette.
Jiang Xian walked up to him without saying anything.
The two of them looked into the distance quietly.
From their perspective, they could see countless buildings destroyed by the earthquake.
"Do you want to smoke?"
Lu Ting took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Jiang Xian. Jiang Xian shook his head and said, "No."
He used to smoke, but after meeting Gu Luan, he took the initiative to quit smoking because he was afraid that she would not like men who smoke.
"Becoming a new good man?"
Lu Ting joked, putting the cigarette box into his pocket, still holding the almost finished cigarette in his hand.
"Tell me, is there still hope for this world?"
After a long time, Lu Ting asked in a deep voice.
Since the end of the world, he has been trying hard to live for himself and his parents.
He thought he had successfully fought against the natural disaster, until these two days he realized how insignificant he was.
The base that was once filled with laughter was no longer filled with laughter, and everyone was filled with fear.
"As long as we are alive, there is hope."
Jiang Xian did not attack Lu Ting, but spoke softly.
No matter what natural disaster we encounter, as long as there is one human being alive, it is not over.
They will definitely be able to resist the natural disaster and survive to the end.
"Yes, as long as you are alive, you will be saved."
As if comforted, Lu Ting smiled, but that smile was filled with endless bitterness.
"What are you going to do next?"
Jiang Xian looked at Lu Ting and asked him.
Lu Ting took a deep puff of his cigarette and looked back at the rows of tents.
"What can we do? Let's find a way to rebuild the base."
Lu Ting is not like Jiang Xian and the others. He still has parents and it is impossible for him to wander around without a fixed place to live.
All he wanted now was to rebuild the base. Even if he couldn't restore it to its previous state, at least he would have a place to stay.
Maybe one day this base will no longer exist, but at least he has tried his best and has done his best to protect many people.
"Lu Ting, try your best to survive. I will treat you to a drink after the end of the world."
Jiang Xian looked into the distance, the voice was both light and heavy.
"Okay, let's go to the most expensive hotel and rip you off."
Lu Ting laughed loudly and hugged Jiang Xian tightly, "Are you leaving now?"
"Yeah. I'll leave tomorrow."
Jiang Xian replied to Lu Ting, "I won't accompany you to build the base."
"I don't need you. I have many subordinates. As long as you are alive and well, I will be satisfied."
Lu Ting punched Jiang Xian in the chest.
The two brothers smiled at each other, and everything was said without words.
"Don't worry, I will live better than you."
"Blow it."
Lu Ting didn't believe it, and his tone suddenly became choked, "Jiang Xian, remember you still want to buy me a drink, so you must survive."
"Yeah, don't worry."
"If you can't survive outside, come back here. If I eat a bite, I'll give you a bite."
"good."
Neither of them spoke anymore, just staring into the distance in silence.
Gu Luan stood behind them and watched for an unknown amount of time.
The next morning, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian left Yiran Base.
Lu Ting didn't come to see them off.
Jiang Xian looked back at the Yiran base which was almost in ruins, and finally got in the car.
After they left, Lu Ting came out from behind a tree and waved to the empty space.
"Take care, brother!"
The car was driving on the road, and the two people were not moving smoothly.
Most of the city's ground was cracked, some as small as a few dozen centimeters wide and some as large as over a meter wide.
The earthquake the night before yesterday exceeded magnitude 8. It was the largest earthquake China has experienced in decades.
As we drove along, we could hardly see a single intact place. Everything was desolate, which made people feel sad and mournful.
It took Gu Luan and Jiang Xian nearly a day just to leave the city because they had to keep taking detours.
"You can't drive, bring Huihui and Baibai out."
Looking at the cracks everywhere ahead, Gu Luan answered with a frown.
"Well, it's okay to let them out for some fresh air."
Jiang Xian nodded, agreeing with Gu Luan.
The two found a quiet place, and after making sure that there was no one there, they put the SUV into storage and released Huihui and Baibai.
Baibai is the companion that Gu Luan found for Huihui.
She bought a hundred horses in Mengshi.
He chose the most beautiful white horse from among them and asked it to accompany Huihui.
Otherwise, every time she doesn't have time to enter the space, Huihui will complain about her "ruthlessness" as soon as she enters.
Two horses appeared in front of Gu Luan and Jiang Xian.
When Huihuibaibai saw the two of them, she enthusiastically ran up to them and acted coquettishly.
Huihui ran to Gu Luan, and Baibai ran towards Jiang Xian. The two horses each had their favorite owner.
Gu Luan took out two bowls of well water and handed one to Jiang Xian.
After feeding the two horses, the two men mounted them.
The two horses neighed and ran quickly on the road.
Huihui and Baibai are very smart. They hardly need any instructions from Gu Luan and Jiang Xian. When they encounter a crack, they either jump over it or avoid it.
With the powerful movements of the two horses, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian quickly left the city.
The survivors in the city heard the sound of horses running and wondered why there were still people riding horses at this time.
They ran out curiously, but when they came out they saw nothing but flying dust.
After traveling to nearly three cities, Gu Luan and Jiang Xian witnessed all the tragedies in the world.
Countless houses were reduced to ashes.
Countless amounts of blood were shed all over the ground.
Eventually it was tanned black and red by the sun.
Others sat in front of the collapsed houses, staring blankly, or mechanically trying to save their loved ones.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian went from being sad to being numb by such scenes, and in the end they could only walk away heartlessly.
Finally, after three days of difficult journey, they approached the coastal city of Zhangshi.
Zhangshi is close to the sea, and it feels much cooler as soon as you enter Zhangshi.
From time to time, the sea breeze blows, making people feel so comfortable that they want to have a good sleep.
Zhang City was also affected by the earthquake and many houses collapsed.
The good thing is that it's not too serious.
Compared with the cities they passed along the way, Zhang City was much better.
Gu Luan and Jiang Xian did not stay in the urban area of Zhangshi City, but drove to the beach.
After the road became easier to travel, Huihui and Baibai were taken into the space and replaced with the off-road vehicle they had been driving all the way.
