Chapter 105
Extreme Escape
The man in the cotton hat who had been observing the situation on the second floor was certain of his point of view. Although they were few in number, they were definitely not ordinary and would not show any mercy to anyone who came to cause trouble.
Having more people does not necessarily mean victory, and one is completely vulnerable to absolute force.
Fang Xin turned the steering wheel, no longer paying attention to the group of ignorant survivors, and slowly moved away from the town.
Found a dilapidated house at the end of town.
The signboard was swaying in the wind, half hanging there, and the words on it were completely illegible. It was unknown what kind of store it was in the past.
The eaves were hung with thick icicles, the roof had long been collapsed by the heavy snow and was in tatters, and the walls were also mottled and peeling, frozen in thick ice.
Fang Xin looked around and found that there were no other houses or buildings nearby. This was the only building standing here alone, which was relatively safe.
Yes, a place without people is safe.
Fang Xin turned the steering wheel and parked the car close to the house, where it could be sheltered from the wind.
After dinner, several people went to rest.
Before Fang Xin went to sleep, he got out of the car and walked around the body of the vehicle carefully observing it.
For example, whether the tire is underinflated or whether there are large stones stuck in the tire.
Check the fuel tank again for any oil leaks.
Check whether the crash barrier is damaged.
After everything was checked, she went into the car to rest with peace of mind.
It is still the dog that keeps watch.
No words were spoken that night.
I slept until five in the morning.
It was dawn outside.
Yes, as the temperature rises, the daybreak comes earlier.
Fang Xin stretched comfortably. The temperature was suitable, and his sleep quality was also improved. This time he slept well and felt refreshed.
You can't rush every day, or you won't be able to bear it. It is necessary to take proper rest.
It's just that the bed is too narrow and she doesn't sleep very comfortably, but she can't ask for too much when she's away from home, so this is already very good.
Fang Xin clearly felt that the temperature had risen again today.
She took off her sweater, changed into a blouse, and then put on a thick gray sports jacket.
Fang Xin packed up his things, stood up, opened the car door and walked out.
I took out the thermometer and checked it, and found that the temperature had risen to a few degrees above zero.
Most of the snow and ice on the road have melted into water.
The dirty road was extremely filthy, mixed with all kinds of garbage surging in the water.
She looked up and saw that the tall buildings on both sides of the road were gray in color, with broken walls washed by melted snow, revealing the grayish-white cement and red bricks inside.
The collapsed roof was in ruins, and a sense of desolation and dilapidation came over it, making people feel suffocated.
Fang Xin felt the accumulated water on the ground continuously pouring in. She looked towards both sides of the road. The flood water from high above was wrapped in ice chips and was rushing down like a beast. The sound of water was deafening.
She couldn't help but tremble.
The flood is coming.
Two survivors on both sides of the road in the distance were swept away by the strong flood and had no time to escape.
The snow melts too quickly. Humans are so small and fragile in front of nature.
When Grandpa Li saw the flood surging in the distance, he immediately jumped out of the car and shouted nervously, "Xinxin, hurry up, the flood is coming."
Fang Xin originally wanted to remove the anti-skid chains so that the car could drive faster, but now it was obviously too late with the flood approaching.
"Hurry up, Xinxin." After Grandpa Li shouted, he quickly ran back into the container.
"Xiao Kai, please go back to the co-pilot position quickly, in case Xinxin needs help and there's no one around."
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Kai immediately jumped out of the car and got into the passenger seat.
Fang Xin opened the car door and nimbly got into the tall passenger seat. He quickly started the car, turned the steering wheel onto the road, and stepped on the accelerator to drive quickly.
The scenery on both sides of the road quickly flowed backwards. The flood instantly submerged the fields on both sides of the road and washed away the low buildings on both sides of the road.
The flood behind was chasing him closely. Fang Xin's hands were sweating as he nervously raced against the flood.
The two old people were in the container at the back, looking at the rushing flood outside, their hearts beating fast. If they were swept into the flood, their lives would be over.
The low houses on both sides of the road were collapsed by the flood, and the sleeping survivors were washed away by the flood.
There are a large number of survivors struggling desperately in the water.
They saw a large truck speeding on the road in the distance and kept waving for help.
At this time, the flood on the road was almost above the tires. The car became extremely heavy, but the truck could not stop.
Running desperately in the flood.
Fang Xin drove along the highway, observing the surrounding environment, but he couldn't find a suitable location for a while.
They have now reached the border of City C.
She glanced at the navigation and the map showed a hilltop villa area not far away.
She decided to go up the mountain, where she could avoid the flood.
Only this mountain is the closest to here.
According to the map, she quickly turned the steering wheel and drove to the left lane, knocking down the middle guardrail of the highway, running over the guardrail, and knocking away the abandoned vehicle blocking the road.
I forced a turn and rode onto the left fork in the road.
The flood on the road was getting more and more severe, and Fang Xin was getting anxious. If this continued, they would be finished sooner or later.
The car speed was increased to the maximum. After about ten minutes, Fang Xin finally arrived at the foot of the mountain villa according to the map. Looking up, the mountain here was indeed quite high.
Fang Xin turned into the cement road leading to the top of the mountain without even thinking about it.
The rocks on the top of the mountain rolled down to the bottom of the mountain.
Suddenly the car shook and the rear end drifted to one side uncontrollably.
In an instant, the entire car turned sideways.
The flood was getting bigger and bigger, continuously washing over the car and slapping against the body of the car.
Push the car out of the designated route.
Fang Xin gritted his teeth, turned the steering wheel again, changed gears, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and tried his best to straighten the car.
However, the tires kept slipping and the car couldn't move.
"Quick, get out of the car and see if you are stuck by something."
Hearing the sound, Xiao Kai opened the car door and jumped into the flood, which had already reached his knees.
Grandpa Li also jumped down quickly and tried to push the car.
But it couldn't move at all.
The flood water on the road was getting higher and higher.
Xiao Kai shouted in a hurried voice, "Grandpa, check under the car to see if there is anything stuck under the tire."
The two men quickly checked in the flood.
It was discovered that the rear tire was stuck by a large rock.
Xiao Kai immediately knelt down, soaking his entire body in the water with only half of his head exposed, and kept pushing the big rock with both hands.
This big rock must have been washed down from the top of the mountain by the flood and got stuck in the tire.
Veins bulged on his forehead and he was very anxious. If the car was anchored in the flood, all their belongings would be lost.
He gritted his teeth, his muscles bulged, and he used all his strength once again. Finally, the stone showed signs of loosening. He held his breath and finally pulled the stone out from under the car.
"Okay, sister, try again." Xiao Kai gasped and shouted loudly.
Hearing the sound, Fang Xin started the car again. The tires kept spinning in the flood, stirring up the water. Finally, the car body was straightened and he drove onto the cement road.
Fang Xin finally let out a sigh of relief.
Seeing that the car could finally drive normally, the two quickly returned to the car.
A large amount of snow water wrapped in pieces of broken ice continuously flowed down from the mountain.
The sound of water is thrilling.
