Chapter 106

Escape from floods

The car kept climbing up against the flood. Fortunately, the truck was heavy and the rushing flood did not shake it at all.

The higher we went, the more ragged survivors appeared, carrying simple luggage and struggling to walk in the flood.

There were also a few cars trying hard to climb.

A car was suddenly anchored in the flood.

His car had a low chassis and was constantly washed away by the flood, so it was inevitable that the anchor would be lost.

The people in the car had no choice but to abandon the car, pick up their belongings, and climb the mountain on foot.

Two frail survivors were entangled by something and fell into the flood. They were quickly washed away by the rushing water.

Only the screams remained in the air.

Fang Xin's car kept honking its horn to remind the survivors to avoid the cars, but most of the survivors were numb.

Their calves waded through the rushing flood water with numbness and difficulty.

After finally getting through the extreme cold, we thought life would get better, but the flood destroyed our homes again. Everyone was like a puppet, completely blocking out the sounds from the outside world and living in their own world.

Fang Xin was not used to it at all. She had already sounded the flute to remind you that if you didn't avoid, there was nothing she could do. She couldn't just follow you slowly. How could she reach the top of the mountain then?

She continued driving at full speed, and the survivors who did not evade were run over and caught under the wheels.

The flood instantly turned a bright red, and screams came from the bottom of the flood.

“Ah…gulp…ah…gulp.”

The numb survivors were finally awakened by the screams and moved away one after another.

The higher we drove, the shallower the flood became. We finally reached the top of the mountain after driving for half an hour.

Fang Xin parked the car inside on the left side, not too far from the concrete road leading down the mountain.

There are three villas in the center of the mountain top. The mountain top is very large and the place is very empty.

Some survivors had already reached the top of the mountain and occupied the villa.

The villas here are probably inhabited by wealthy people, and the environment is very beautiful with mountains and water around.

But now it is barren everywhere, without a single green spot.

Even the trees have been chopped down, leaving only their roots.

There was also a large amount of flood water on the top of the mountain, rolling under the feet and flowing down the mountain.

Now the only sound in the whole world is the roaring flood, which makes people shudder. The water level at the foot of the mountain is getting higher and higher, and it seems to have formed a vast ocean, which makes people scared.

What would have happened if they were a step later?

This city is located at a relatively high altitude and cannot prevent floods. This shows what the scene is like in S City, a coastal city.

What would have happened if they had not left the coastal cities?

The ordinary survivors did not take the rising temperature seriously at all. They were just immersed in joy and had no idea that the snow would melt into water.

Causing a secondary disaster.

Humans are truly defenseless against nature and can only passively take the beating.

The flood swept away everything with overwhelming force, making people feel terrified and leaving no one a chance to breathe.

Soon, a large number of soaking wet survivors slowly flooded onto the mountaintop platform.

Grandpa Li frowned as he looked at the survivors coming up. "Xinxin, should we drive the car inside? It's too conspicuous here."

"No, if we go too deep inside, we'll suffocate to death. When the flood recedes, it won't be easy for us to get out."

"Yes, that's it."

Cars continued to drive up to the top of the mountain.

There are pickup trucks, SUVs, and RVs.

The people who got on were looking at the few people and the big truck, and their expressions were unclear.

As people who have survived the three years of extreme cold, they all have their own little thoughts in mind.

Some people come from relatively wealthy families and survive by relying on their rich foundation, but most of them survive by relying on ruthlessness. Don't underestimate anyone, because nothing is given for free.

Suddenly, a speeding RV rushed out from the concrete road, splashing water.

Several people dodged quickly and were almost hit by the high splashes.

The RV was parked directly to the right of their car.

Just separated from many survivors.

Two middle-aged men, a woman, and two children aged 13 and 14 got off the bus. When getting off the bus, one of the men nodded towards them, and Grandpa Li nodded politely in response.

Several people got off the car and stretched their bodies. The two children did not run around but stayed beside the adults.

Grandpa Li couldn't stay still at all. He stepped forward and Xiao Kai followed closely behind him like a bodyguard.

Grandpa Li immediately switched to his amiable old man persona and started chatting with the middle-aged man, and it seemed like they were having a very pleasant conversation.

There were more and more people on the top of the mountain, and there was a constant flow of flood water under their feet. The survivors could only find something to sit on and rest.

There were groups of three or five, here and there, and everyone kept a safe distance.

The noise was getting louder.

It was the first time she had seen so many people in the three years since the apocalypse, and she felt like her head was going to explode.

Most of these survivors are local residents of City C.

The city's drainage system had already stopped working, and the low-rise buildings were soaked by floodwaters, making them uninhabitable. The floods came too quickly, and many survivors had no chance to take away too many belongings, and could only flee in a hurry.

About half an hour later, Grandpa Li and Xiao Kai came back.

Grandpa Li quietly found out the situations of several people.

The people in the RV in front are a family. The younger man is the middle-aged man's brother-in-law, and his wife's younger brother.

Their family also plans to go to City A.

Nearing noon, several people had a simple meal.

After all, there are too many people and it’s not easy to cook.

After finishing his meal, Fang Xin went straight into the front of the car and locked the door, which finally blocked out some noise. He then drew the shades, took out some strawberries from the car seat, and secretly started a small stove for himself.

She has been feeling dry and tasteless in her mouth these past two days.

After eating a few big, juicy strawberries, I felt a little better.

Fang Xin fell asleep in the car and slept until dinner time.

She only got up when Grandma Li came over and called her.

I slept for more than two hours and felt dizzy when I woke up.

She got up dazedly and got out of the car.

"I won't eat tonight, you guys eat." Fang Xin rubbed his forehead.

"What's wrong? Are you sick?" Grandma Li asked with concern.

"No, I slept too much."

"Oh, that's good. Let's eat first and then eat when you want."

"Should we keep watch at night?"

Grandpa Li glanced at the many survivors on the platform and said, "Yes, we must defend it."

Fang Xin slept a little too much, so she stayed for the first half of the night, and Grandpa Li stayed for the second half after 1 o'clock.

After Fang Xin finished speaking, he strolled around the area to stretch his body, then got back into the car.

Feeling that she had to eat dinner, she took out a box of Swiss rolls and started eating.

It gets dark at five o'clock, and the arrival of night is a good opportunity for those who are interested to take action.
