In the wind and rain, Huo Cheng didn't even have time to wipe the rain off his face.
The people working nearby were all busy with their tasks, none of them paying attention to their own situation.
They had to save the ship.
Fortunately, Huo Cheng and Dou Chenfeng notified them in time, and they also packed up in time, so they finally managed to secure the boat with iron chains.
Once everything was secured, Huo Cheng ordered his men to evacuate immediately.
"Hurry, the storm is coming!"
They had done their utmost and used every means at their disposal. If they still couldn't protect the ship in the storm, then they had no other options.
Huo Cheng ran into a bungalow and hid inside to avoid the wind and rain. He raised his eyes and looked at the port not far away.
Hopefully, this strong wind will bypass the port.
The big trees on the shore were snapped by the strong wind and fell onto the road. The branches were swept into the air and blown away in the blink of an eye.
"I wonder how things are going at the family compound?"
Dou Chenfeng looked at the situation outside, his face full of hesitation.
His wife grew up in the city and had always had a smooth and successful life.
This was the first time she had ever seen weather like this.
I wonder if she'll be scared?
Dou Chenfeng was very worried at the moment and wanted to go back to be with his wife.
Huo Cheng placed his hand on his shoulder and patted it gently. "Don't worry, with your sister-in-law here, Xiao Qing will be fine."
As a man, Huo Cheng was actually quite worried about having only his wife at home.
But at this point, he had no way to go back and could only trust his wife to protect him.
Once the weather is warm enough for people to walk freely, he will try his best to get back as soon as possible...
Because of his profession, Huo Cheng couldn't even guarantee that he could return home and be with his wife as soon as possible after the disaster.
In fact, everyone present felt the same way.
Those who live in the family compound are very worried.
Everyone remained silent in the night, the atmosphere extremely heavy.
The raging wind and rain outside seemed poised to tear all the buildings apart.
Some windows that hadn't been boarded up were torn apart by the wind.
"Look, what's that on the sea?"
Through the slightly cracked window, amidst the lightning and thunder, one could vaguely see what appeared to be water columns moving rapidly on the distant sea.
Looking in the direction we're heading, it's towards the family compound.
"That's a tornado, a waterspout!"
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Then someone shouted, "Look at that direction, it seems to be heading straight for the family compound."
"this……"
Dou Chenfeng clenched his fists tightly, his heart pounding in his chest.
Huo Cheng wasn't much better off than him.
Right now, they can't even care about the safety of all the residents in the family compound.
They were thinking to themselves, "I hope everything is alright at home."
Family compound.
"Xiao Qing, come down slowly."
Yingyue, carrying a flashlight, went down into the cellar first.
She immediately turned around and reached out to help Huo Qing down.
The winds outside were too strong, and Huo Qing was very scared.
Yingyue couldn't bear it, so she brought her to the cellar to stay for a while.
Let's wait until the strong wind outside passes before going out.
In the family compound, there were quite a few people who shared the same thoughts as Yingyue and the others.
Many timid people hid in the cellar.
This cellar, which is usually used to store winter vegetables, has now become their refuge.
Zhao Wenming's home.
Zhao Wenming sent his wife and children into the cellar, while he stayed outside to observe the situation.
"Dad, I want to be up there with you."
Zhao Gan was reluctant to go to the cellar.
Zhao Wenming held his son's hand and said, "Son, there are only two men in our family. Dad has to stay here and take on the responsibility of protecting your mother. That responsibility can only be left to you."
"You must complete this glorious task, understand?"
Zhao Wenming earnestly gave his son some instructions.
Infected by his father's emotions, Zhao Gan nodded earnestly.
"good."
"I am a man, and I will definitely protect my mother well."
After Zhao Gan agreed, he immediately went into the cellar.
Zhao Wenming was inspecting the doors and windows, listening to the howling wind from the sea, and he couldn't help but feel terrified.
Fortunately, Comrade Yingyue noticed something was wrong in advance and notified everyone to take precautions. Otherwise, they don't know how much they would have lost after this strong wind blew in...
However, even though they made preparations in advance, it is impossible to be completely unscathed when faced with such a natural disaster.
Some sheds erected in the courtyards were blown away by the wind, unnailed windows were torn apart, and doors were blown open.
The furniture inside the house was swept away and pushed into the corner with a clatter.
If they weren't living in concrete bungalows, the roofs would probably have been ripped off.
The furniture in the house was inevitably damaged.
The wind doesn't stop after the strongest gust has passed.
The wind, carrying raindrops the size of beans, brought rain into the wrecked house.
Soon, water accumulated in the room.
Those hiding in the cellar trembled with fear.
The situation at Yingyue's house is alright.
Her doors and windows were already in good condition, and she added a second layer of protection by nailing wooden boards all over them.
The wooden planks on the window were torn, but thankfully the window itself was still intact.
After the largest phoenix eye passed, Yingyue crawled out of the cellar.
The crisis is not over.
She pulled Huo Qing out of the cellar.
"Xiao Qing, sit on the kang and don't get down. I'm going out for a bit."
