Chapter 20 The End of the World



After leaving Huiyue City, Ling Tian did not return to the rental house. He drove alone to a remote and deserted yard. Looking at the unclear words "Donghua Orphanage" on the doorplate, tears fell silently.

"Dean's mother..."

Ling Tian stood there for a long time, and only this place could touch the softness in his heart.

"Alas, after two lifetimes, I still haven't been able to find any news about you."

After a long time, Ling Tian sighed helplessly.

After leaving this place, I found a desolate and deserted place, took out two bottles of beer from the space, and looked up at the starry sky.

"It's the last twelve hours now. I've done everything I need to do. I hope there won't be any deviations. Otherwise..."

Don’t think about it anymore, it’s useless to think about it, just drink and ask the sky!

Ling Tian did not sleep that night. He just sat alone on a chair, feeling the loneliness and tranquility of the night.

He checked his watch and saw it was already three in the morning. The end of the world would come at noon today, but he didn't feel the anxiety and fear he had before. He didn't know whether the huge amount of supplies he had stockpiled gave him the courage to face the end of the world head-on or whether he had become indifferent to life and death.

“Oh wow…”

After a long while, the crowing of a rooster brought the silent world to life. Ling Tian looked at the dimly lit sky and smiled inexplicably.

"Let's go, today is a good day for team building, haha!"

Returning to the rental house, Ling Tian saw Li Lan, who was already busy running around. He took out the watch he had bought yesterday, hugged her from behind and said with a smile, "This is for you. Do you like it?"

"I like everything you give me."

Li Lan was very happy. Her hard work for nearly a year had finally paid off. Although she didn't know the price, she recognized it as a Patek Philippe, which was very expensive.

At this moment, she was even more determined to be Ling Tian's lover. As long as she fulfilled her duties, she would definitely not be short of money and material things. Wasn't that what she was seeking? As for the reputation, she knew it was impossible.

"I'm glad you like it. The car company will send a car here at nine o'clock. You can make some arrangements and leave on time at ten-thirty. I have something to go out for. We'll meet at the foot of Bifeng Mountain."

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

Ling Tian nodded in satisfaction and left the rental house in a hurry. He forgot that there was one very important item that he had not stocked up.

Half an hour later, Ling Tian appeared in the nearest labor protection supplies store.

"Boss, do you have a gas mask like the ones used by firefighters?"

"Yes, how many do you want?"

"I want all the ones in the store. I'll also buy all the Jiefang shoes and military coats. I'll also want a few fire axes, fire shovels, and high-powered binoculars."

"You want them all?" The boss looked at Ling Tian, ​​who didn't look like he was here to tease him. He asked again to confirm, "Today is such a special day, are you just teasing me?"

"Pay first, goods later, that's fine, right? Let's settle the bill quickly."

"Okay, okay, wait a moment!"

The boss's excitement was hard to conceal. This was a huge order. He could take a two-month break after finishing it.

"It's a total of 10 yuan. WeChat, Alipay, or bank card are all acceptable. What do you think?"

"So little?"

After hearing the quote, it was less than 100,000 yuan, so I guess the quantity wouldn't be too much. But there was nothing I could do. I didn't have time, so I couldn't buy more.

"It's turned around, load the car quickly."

"Okay, just wait a moment." The boss had already heard the information about the payment arrival, and his mouth was almost twitching with laughter. He called his wife out to greet him, and then went into the warehouse to move things.

Just as Ling Tian thought, there were not many goods worth tens of thousands of yuan. The gas mask was less than two hundred yuan, and those Liberation shoes and military coats were even fewer, only about a hundred or eighty pieces.

When the boss was loading the truck, Ling Tian remembered that he had not bought the climbing rope and hiking boots yet, so he immediately bought them all.

After leaving the labor protection store, seeing that there was still enough time, I quickly swept up all the power banks that were free of rent on the nearby streets. There were quite a few, nearly four hundred yuan.

During the trip, he saw two fruit shops. Without thinking too much, he went in and emptied them out. Looking at the balance column in his bank card, Ling Tian laughed.

"Finally, it's all spent. It's time to welcome the arrival of my dear brother of the end of the world, hahahaha~"

I laughed heartily at the sky and went out, for how could I be considered an ordinary person? Without thinking about anything else, I jumped in the car and sped all the way to Bifeng Mountain.

At 11:45, the sky began to surge. It was sunny the moment before, but in less than a minute, it was covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder.

Tick~tick...Soon, heavy rain began to fall from the sky, mixed with hailstones as big as quail eggs, hitting the car with a bang.

"Everything is going as planned. The end of the world has begun!"

Ling Tian knew that this was just the beginning. In ten minutes, the sky would become clear again, and then... it would be hell on earth!

It’s a fait accompli, there’s no point in thinking too much, just keep on going.

At 11:55, Ling Tian, ​​who had just arrived at the meeting point, didn't bother to accept everyone's flattery before saying, "Let's go. Gather your things. Brother Hao, you lead the way. Just follow this path straight up."

"Okay, everyone follow me. I'll show you how to cook beggar's chicken later, hahaha!" After saying that, he put on his big backpack and became the leader, and the others followed one by one.

Regarding this team-building event, I guess apart from Li Lan and their children, few people like it. Why climb a mountain when you can? You are in your forties. Wouldn't it be better to get more money? But ideas are just ideas. You just have to cooperate with the boss.

Seeing that everyone had gone up and that it was the last minute, Ling Tianfei ran over and put all the vehicles into the space. At this time, he was not afraid of the satellites in the sky. It was the end of the world, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Ling Tian walked to the small entrance leading up the mountain and stopped. He looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time. He turned around and looked at the sky.

“Here I come!”

Suddenly, there was a distortion in the sky, and a small bright spot fell rapidly, becoming bigger and bigger. After a few seconds, it slammed heavily into the sea thousands of miles away. What followed was a huge earthquake. Even Ling Tian, ​​who was thousands of miles away, could feel the obvious shaking. He knew that this was just an appetizer. In less than 10 minutes, a thousand-meter-high tsunami would rush over.

Although it was the second time he saw it, Ling Tian was still frightened and panicked, knowing that an even more terrifying tsunami would appear soon. He could not stay any longer and ran towards the mountain.

Five minutes later, Ling Tian caught up with the large group in front. They were enjoying the freshness after the rain along the way at a leisurely pace, but this location was very dangerous and the tsunami would soon arrive.

Ling Tian squeezed forward and shouted to the front, "We're almost there, everyone, hold on and walk faster."

After saying that, Ling Tian walked up quickly. He didn't want to stop for even a second, as his life was the most important thing.

Although they didn't know why Ling Tian was anxious, they still followed him.

Rumble~

"Did you hear any noise?"

Two minutes later, a deafening roar was heard behind them, leaving everyone stunned.

Ling Tian turned around and took a look, then his eyes narrowed in surprise, "How come it's so fast?"

"Don't look, just run up quickly~"

He didn't dare to think, he shouted angrily and ran away without paying any attention to the people below. Life and death are predestined, wealth and honor are in the hands of God, whether they can survive depends on their luck.
