Huo Yishen spoke concisely and expressed his suspicions.
He Tianming pondered and felt that something was indeed wrong. "Don't worry. There is a retired employee from the Geological Institute in Building 2. I will contact him right away. You guys pack up first."
After hanging up the intercom, Huo Yishen quickly packed up his things and said, "Doudou, put on the first aid kit."
Doudou wanted to help collect the things, but he didn't let her. "Stay in the room and don't move."
The two of them were quite fast and put away the furniture and other things quickly, while Huo Yishen took care of the air conditioning.
As they were packing up, the intercom suddenly rang, "Comrade Huo, Xiao Jiang, pack up your things and gather outside immediately. There is a high possibility of an earthquake."
After hanging up the intercom, He Tianming immediately found Yang Jie and said, "Ride my bike to the neighborhood committee and inform them that there might be an earthquake. They will try to contact the municipal government."
Aoyuan has well water, rats and dogs, so they can discover earthquake precursors in advance, but other people may not know.
Yang Weimin chased out of the house, "Be careful, go quickly."
He Tianming immediately broadcasted and notified residents to evacuate urgently, "Take only emergency supplies and immediately evacuate to the designated open space outside the community."
The things at home had been packed long ago. He put on his bag and hurried downstairs with Mengmeng in his arms, not forgetting to use the loudspeaker to continue notifying, "Hurry, hurry, hurry, saving your life is important, don't bring any messy things."
As soon as he came out, he saw Huo Yishen driving a Hummer over. He Tianming was stunned for a moment, "Brother Huo, the earthquake may come soon, why are you still driving?"
"There are elderly people in my relative's home who have difficulty moving around, so we have to go over there."
He Tianming organized it very well, and there was nothing to worry about Aoyuan. The Hummer quickly drove away from the community.
The shelter had been chosen long ago, and Huo Yishen's driving skills were unquestionable as he sped along the road scorched by the scorching sun.
Fortunately, the tires are resistant to high temperatures and friction, otherwise they would have melted.
The car crossed the provincial road and the national highway and headed towards a secluded place.
The whole journey took less than 20 minutes and the car drove into an abandoned factory.
Huo Yishen got out of the car, holding Doudou's hand and walking in front, passing through the factory and heading towards the large wasteland behind.
Jiang Ning took the opportunity to store the car into the space.
The weeds were overgrown and became crispy under the scorching sun, breaking into pieces at the slightest touch.
The dog looked alert as it patrolled around the wasteland.
Huo Yishen and Doudou were no exception and did not dare to relax at all.
Jiang Ning turned on the radio, which repeatedly broadcast emergency news from the municipal government, saying that a major earthquake could strike at any time and asking residents to evacuate quickly to open areas in the wild.
After a triple check, they confirmed that there was no one around. Huo Yishen and Jiang Ning stood together, and Gou Zi teased the little kid.
Doudou turned around and saw a huge orange escape pod behind him. It was the one used in the last tsunami.
She was no longer surprised and looked up at her brother.
Huo Yishen opened the cabin door and said, "Doudou."
I have to admit that the family version of the escape pod is a very user-friendly design, even taking child seats into consideration.
Huo Yishen helped her fasten her seat belt and put on the anti-collision cushioning helmet. "Don't be afraid, your brother is right beside you."
Doudou nodded, "Brother, sister-in-law, I'm not afraid."
There is no special seat for dogs, but Jiang Ning specially sewed a dog head hat for it, which was made of coral fleece and cotton. In case the impact of the earthquake is too strong, it can protect its head from being injured.
After some effort, I put the dog hat on it, leaving only its mouth and eyes exposed... uh, so ugly.
Doudou was stunned for a moment, then smiled in an unkind way.
Jiang Ning took out his cell phone and took an ugly photo of the dog.
The dog sensed something was wrong and protested by scratching his hat with his paws.
The protest was ineffective, so Jiang Ning fastened his seat belt.
Halfway through tying it, I felt my body suddenly shake.
The escape pod has a center of gravity anti-vibration and shock-absorbing device, and it is relatively heavy, so ordinary vibrations are difficult to detect, unless...
The earthquake is coming!
The two looked at each other and quickly fastened their seat belts.
"Coke." Huo Yishen gave the order.
The dog jumped up and was held tightly in his arms.
"Doudou, hold on to the handrail."
Jiang Ning felt vibrations under his feet, and his body was wrapped in the soft seat, with his hands tightly grasping the handrails.
The escape pod was like a tumbler, swaying left, right, forward, and backward without any regularity, and the vibrations continued to escalate.
Jiang Ning could even feel his muscles vibrating.
Through the round glass window, the scene in front of me kept shaking and switching screens, and the images flashed very quickly.
I glanced over and saw the abandoned factory building in the distance shaking.
When I scanned back the next second, it was collapsing...
The four-story factory building, covering several thousand square meters, had gone through floods, extreme cold, and extreme heat, and was like a shoddy construction during the earthquake.
I say it will collapse one second, and it collapses the next second for you to see.
The wall cracked rapidly, like a picture fast-forwarded a hundred times, with concrete beams breaking and bricks and stones falling down...
With an overwhelming force, the escape pod suddenly flipped forward and turned 90 degrees. Fortunately, there were universal gyroscopes in the inner and outer cabins to adjust gravity, otherwise several people would have been hanging upside down.
“Woo…”
Animals are most sensitive to danger. Witnessing the power of nature, the usually tough dog became timid and made a sad sound in his throat.
Huo Yishen stroked the dog's head and said, "Don't be afraid, we will be fine."
Just as he finished speaking, the entire escape pod was thrown up and then fell heavily down.
"Brother." Doudou's face changed with fear, "Sister-in-law."
Huo Yishen asked anxiously, "Is Doudou injured?"
Doudou is fine, he just can't control his fear.
The escape pod shook violently and it took a while to stabilize.
Outside the glass cabin, the factory building was in ruins. After passing through the frozen and exposed forest, a large amount of dead soil in the forest loosened and cracked open in a corner. The soil, carrying the dead wood, slid down like a mudslide, revealing a large area of yellow soil. The cracks expanded visibly...
Before there was time to catch a breath, the escape pod tilted and rolled, then suddenly sank and got stuck.
The strong earthquake tore the ground apart and gullies continued to spread.
The escape pod sank halfway in and was stuck in mid-air by the ravine.
Above my head, there is a clear sky and bright sun.
Under your feet, there are deep ravines.
Doudou was still in shock, her lips trembling, and she took a long time to find her voice, "Are we going to fall?"
Jiang Ning comforted her, "Don't be afraid of falling. We can live in the escape pod for a month, and someone will come to rescue us."
Just as he finished his words, a huge rock came crashing down from somewhere and hit the escape pod heavily.
Under the impact of the force, the escape pod sank a little further.
The cabin was eerily quiet and one could hear each other's breathing clearly.
The three of them were hanging in the crack created by the earthquake.
Jiang Ning asked: "Doudou, are you feeling unwell?"
"No." I'm just afraid.
It’s good that everything is fine. Perhaps with Huo Yishen by his side, Jiang Ning seems particularly calm.
When the earthquake actually happened, we no longer felt the same fear as before.
The dog lay tightly in the trainer's arms, but his nervous eyes followed the poop shoveler closely.
Seeing that she was not afraid, it also breathed a sigh of relief.
The escape pod was stuck in mid-air for more than ten minutes. Jiang Ning couldn't help but ask, "Is the earthquake over?"
As soon as the voice fell, there was another violent tremor, and the escape pod fell again accompanied by mud...
