Chapter 882: Heaven and Hell Are All on Earth
At 9:55 a.m. on May 23, on the 213 National Highway in Sishan, Bian Xuedao experienced what it means to shake the ground and shake the mountain, and the landslide and the ground crack.
"Whoa!
Dozens of meters in front of the car, collapsed rocks and sand poured like a waterfall, and the smoke and dust covered the sun, and the flying rocks rained down.
Sitting in the car, Bian Xuedao witnessed a middle-aged man jumping out of the car in front of him and running in his direction with all his might, but after only two or three steps, he was hit on the head by a flying stone, and the man fell to the ground, and two or three seconds later, the man who fell to the ground was submerged by the collapsed earth and rocks.
The national highway has been covered with boulders, the heart is beating fast, and the great test of life and death is just around the corner!
Although he knew that it was also unsafe to get out of the car, reason told Bian Xuedao that he had to get out of the car.
Get off the bus, there is still a glimmer of life. If you don't get out of the car, once the hillside above your head collapses, the car is an iron coffin.
Open the door, get out of the car, Bian Xuedao ran to Meng Jingyao's car at a speed of 100 meters, knocked on the window vigorously and said: "There is an earthquake, the front is collapsing, get out of the car!"
Meng Jingyao got out of the car and asked Bian Xue with a pale face: "What should I do?"
Bian Xuedao looked up at the hillside above his head, and there were already small stones rolling down, and he immediately shouted, "Go to the river beach." ”
The two bent over, jumping from side to side like tennis players, dodging falling rocks and running towards the river beach.
Before they could run to the river beach, there was a loud noise behind them, and the two continued to run regardless of it, until they reached the river, and when they looked back, the Mercedes-Benz they were learning to drive was hit by a boulder the size of a house, and the whole car was almost smashed into a piece of iron, and Meng Jingyao's red BMW was much luckier, only hit by a few small stones, and the car body was intact.
Seeing the appearance of the Mercedes-Benz, Bian Xuedao secretly called for luck, and then became depressed.
When he returned to Shudu from Sanya, he had been guarding against earthquakes, so he always had a maritime satellite phone in his car, and a "top-of-the-line" earthquake-resistant emergency backpack sold in Qisan Bookstore in the trunk.
Well, now that people are not as good as heaven......
The earthquake was delayed, and I was almost trapped in the earthquake area, and the life-saving equipment I had prepared was still crushed under the boulder.
Standing on the river beach, the frightened Meng Jingyao dialed her mobile phone over and over again, but she couldn't get out, and finally, after dialing five times, she found that the mobile phone had no signal at all.
Seeing Meng Jingyao's appearance, Bian Xuedao said: "Don't fight, look at the appearance of these mountains, any signal tower has been shaken." ”
Looking at the black Mercedes that was flattened by the boulder, Meng Jingyao subconsciously leaned over to Bian Xuedao's side and asked in a low voice, "How big an earthquake must this be?"
Bian Xuedao looked up at the gloomy sky and said, "At least level 7 or above." ”
That being said, but in Bian Xuedao's heart, he almost decided that this was the magnitude 8 earthquake in his previous life.
After a few seconds of silence, Meng Jingyao whispered, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pulled you here......"
Bian Xuedao said: "Don't say I'm sorry, it's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, now let's think about how to escape for our lives." ”
"Escape?" Meng Jingyao asked in surprise.
Bian Xuedao pointed to the mountain and said: "We are lucky, there was no large-scale landslide in this mountain during the earthquake just now, but you see, the soil and rocks on the top of the mountain have been loosened, as long as there is another aftershock of more than 5 magnitude, this place must collapse." ”
Meng Jingyao said: "My brain is completely messed up, what do you say now?"
Bian Xuedao frowned and said: "I will definitely not be able to contact the outside world for rescue in a short time, I have a satellite phone in my car, and it was smashed ...... stones."
When Bian Xuedao said this, Meng Jingyao suddenly said "oops": "Quick, I'm in the car...... I was in the car...... I have a satellite phone in my car, and a backpack for hiking. ”
didn't bother to ask Meng Jingyao why she could bring these things, she rushed out with a "whoosh", pulled the car door, and Meng Jingyao shouted behind her: "Trunk, trunk." ”
Meng Jingyao shouted while staring closely at the movement on the top of the mountain, until Bian Xuedao walked towards her with a backpack, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Walking up to him, he asked Meng Jingyao, "How do you have these things?"
Meng Jingyao said: "Isn't the wilderness survival base just outdoor camping in disguise? Of course I have to bring equipment. ”
I opened my backpack, found the Inmarsat phone, and asked, "Do you still have this outdoors?"
Meng Jingyao said: "My brother-in-law said that the signal in the mountains came and went, so I was prepared. ”
Handing the phone to Meng Jingyao, she said, "Hurry up, ask your brother-in-law for help, and ask him to send a helicopter to rescue the two of us." ”
The first time, Zhu Zhichun's mobile phone couldn't get through, and the display showed that it was always busy.
The second time, I called Zhu Zhichun's office landline, but it was still busy.
A minute later, I called Zhu Zhichun's office landline again, and this time it worked.
On the other end of the phone, hearing Meng Jingyao's voice, Zhu Zhichun was very excited, and as a result, the first thing Zhu Zhichun asked was: "Is Bian Xuedao with you?"
Meng Jingyao was not very happy and handed the phone to Bian Xuedao, and Bian Xuedao asked Zhu Zhichun: "How is Shudu, is the disaster serious?"
Zhu Zhichun said: "The earthquake in Shudu was very strong, and there was a collapse of a residential building, and I just received a phone call, and the province and the city should requisition Tianxing's helicopters to collect the disaster situation in the city from the air." ”
After Zhu Zhichun finished speaking, Bian Xuedao said: "Lao Zhu, you contact Li Bing and ask him to take Xu Shangxiu out of the school immediately, and be sure to arrange it in a safe and secure place, preferably to send Sishan." ”
Meng Jingyao, who was standing next to Bian Xuedao, heard him say this, looked at him deeply, then coughed lightly, pointed at Bian Xuedao, and pointed at herself, which means: And what about the two of us, let my brother-in-law send a plane!
Bian Xuedao, who was holding the phone, nodded lightly at Meng Jingyao, and then said: "Also, Lao Zhu, I don't know how many collapses have occurred on the whole line of National Highway 213, and the car will definitely not be able to go, so you can send a plane to pick us up." ”
Zhu Zhichun asked, "Where are you two now?"
Bian Xuedao said: "Between Wenkou County and Yangxiu Town. ”
The reason why the two drove so far was because they were originally scheduled to gather at 9 o'clock, but Meng Jingyao drove to Bian Xuedao's place after 8 o'clock, if it was according to the original plan, the two should be near Dujiang City at this time.
Zhu Zhichun asked, "Is there a flat land around you that can take off and land planes?"
Bian Xuedao looked around, sighed and said: "There is no flat land, the highway is buried by stones, except for the stone is the Minjiang River." ”
After a few seconds of silence, Zhu Zhichun said: "There are only pilots on Tianxing's side, there are no air rescuers, you two now pick a direction, go to Wenkou County, or go to Yangxiu Town, when you get to the town, you can always find a smoother place, and then I will send a plane to pick you up." ”
Bian Xuedao thought about it, and that's all.
The surrounding area is full of mountains, and there will be no place to take off and land helicopters for a while and a half, so it is better to go to the town, whether it is Wenkou County or Yangxiu Town, he donated to build an earthquake-resistant teaching building and built a sports field with enough helicopters to take off and land, as long as he walks there, he can leave by helicopter sent by Zhu Zhichun.
In front of Wenkou County, back is Yangxiu Town, in terms of distance, it must be closer to Yangxiu.
So, he didn't ask Meng Jingyao's opinion, and said into the phone: "Jingyao and I will go to Yangxiu, and I'll contact you when we get to the place." ”
Zhu Zhichun said: "Okay, you two must be careful. ”
Bian Xuedao said: "Don't worry, I will take care of Jingyao." ”
Before ending the call, Bian Xuedao asked: "By the way, the news of the earthquake has not been sent, what magnitude is it, and where is the epicenter?"
Zhu Zhichun said: "The news from the National Earthquake Administration has come out, with a magnitude of 8. 1. The epicenter was in Aoki Prefecture. ”
Bian Xuedao: "......"
The epicenter is in Aoki?!
Magnitude 8. 1?!
What's going on?
Not to mention the postponement of the earthquake, not to mention the change of the epicenter, the magnitude of the earthquake has also increased......
Meng Jingyao heard the call between Bian Xuedao and Zhu Zhichun, and knew that Bian Xuedao decided to walk back to Yangxiu, and when she saw Bian Xuedao holding the phone in a daze, she pulled him: "Let's go, it will rain after the earthquake, and the road will be difficult to walk for a while." ”
Bian Xuedao, who turned his head and asked Meng Jingyao, "Do you have anything else in the car that can be used on the road?"
Meng Jingyao said: "Let's go over and look for it." ”
………………
The road is hard to walk.
Not to mention driving, it is difficult to walk.
National Highway 213, which was smooth all the way, had a section of landslides almost every few tens of meters, and vehicles that were smashed by boulders and buried by earth and rocks could be seen everywhere.
The two walked for more than half an hour, and saw more than ten bodies on the road, at first he was worried that Meng Jingyao would be afraid, and then he found that Meng Jingyao's performance was very calm, and then he knew that Meng Jingyao was much stronger than he imagined.
After walking for more than ten minutes, they were stunned by the scene in front of them - there was no road in front of them, and the entire road surface was covered by a collapsed mountain, forming a rugged slope in a chaotic world, and the sliding earth and rocks were pushed all the way to the river.
As long as you were at the bottom of the mountain at the time, no one was spared such a landslide.
Bian Xuedao and Meng Jingyao looked at each other silently, and they understood what each other meant: they were so lucky, if they encountered such a landslide, they would definitely die or live.
At this time, the sky began to rain.
Meng Jingyao found a jacket to put on, and gave the raincoat to Bian Xuedao.
The two were about to stop, and just about to cross the gravel beach, their feet suddenly trembled, the earth began to shake, and the top of the mountain made a loud "boom" sound, and the rubble fell.
Aftershock!
Bian Xuedao pulled Meng Jingyao and ran to the river, saying that it was the river, but it was a little farther away from the foot of the mountain, if it was not safe here, he had no choice but to jump into the river.
Fortunately, it seems that with the protection of the gods, the two survived the aftershocks that lasted for nearly 10 seconds.
Looking at the mountain that had collapsed again in front of her, Meng Jingyao said: "I told you my last words first, in case I can't go back this time, you can bring the words back to my house." ”
Bian Xuedao squatted down and re-tied his shoelaces, and said while tying: "Don't say it, I won't help you talk when I say it." ”
Meng Jingyao ignored him and said, "You tell my father, my mother and my sister, I love them." Also, my grandfather's Doucai chicken bowl cup was accidentally broken by me, and my sister has helped me carry this for more than 20 years, and I have to return her innocence. ”
Bian Xuedao stood up, looked at Meng Jingyao and said, "It's gone?"
Meng Jingyao nodded: "It's gone." ”
Bian Xuedao asked: "There is nothing about property, such as your bank card password or something." ”
Meng Jingyao said: "My bank password is my sister's ......"
"Stop, stop!" Bian Xuedao hurriedly stopped Meng Jingyao's words.
Meng Jingyao looked at Bian Xuedao with watery eyes and said, "What about you, do you have anything to say for me to take back?"
Bian Xuedao glared at Meng Jingyao: "Can you read something good." ”
Meng Jingyao said: "Whatever you want." But don't blame me for not reminding you, now the aftershocks are continuous, and life and death are on the front line all the way, and if something really happens, you may not have the opportunity to say it. ”
Staring at Meng Jingyao for a few seconds, she said: "Okay, if I can't go back, my property will be divided into six parts, no, seven parts, one for each of my parents, one for Xu Shangxiu, one for Shan Rao, and one for Dong Xue......"
Speaking of this, he glanced at Meng Jingyao, and then said: "Shen Fu has one share, and the last one is to set up a charitable fund, which will be ...... Seo Sang-so is in charge. ”
After Bian Xuedao finished speaking, Meng Jingyao looked at him with burning eyes: "Okay, I'll help you bring it." ”
………………
The two walked through the landslide area with difficulty, and walked for another while, the road was slippery in the rain, and Meng Jingyao accidentally broke her foot.
This was very serious, and her ankle was obviously swollen, Meng Jingyao was very strong, and she continued to walk with a limp, and soon beads of sweat appeared on her face.
The speed slowed down, and Bian Xuedao took out two chocolates from his backpack, opened one of them, and ate half of them with Meng Jingyao.
There was an army-green helicopter hovering in the sky, and although it did not fall, that touch of green itself represented vitality and gave people hope.
Others don't know, but Bian Xuedao knows that at this moment, the rescue forces of the whole country are converging on the four mountains, but because the landslide blocked the road, the rescuers were all blocked in Dujiang City, and it was difficult to enter the earthquake area as soon as possible.
I continued walking, and finally I saw a living person.
An old man who had escaped from the mountains walked by the river with a burden of bedding at one end and a large plastic bag at the other, and several chickens came out of the mouth of the bag, which was all his belongings.
After walking for a while, the two met a middle-aged man who was crying silently on the mountain, and the man had no luggage and stood alone on the side of the road. He said that his family's house collapsed, burying the family, and he didn't even take out a pair of chopsticks. He came here to join his relatives, but as a result, he saw the scene of the collapse of the houses in the col below, and there was no hope of joining his relatives.
Bian Xuedao told the man: "Keep going, keep going in the direction of Yangxiu, Dujiang, and Shudu." ”
Holding Meng Jingyao, he continued to move forward, and along the way, all he could see was ruins, unimaginably collapsed ruins.
As I walked, a hillside suddenly appeared in front of me, the original road had long been gone, and the river, which was originally tens of meters wide, was now only a few meters wide. There were some people standing in front of the hillside, and when they came closer, they found that both men and women, children and old people, were looking in the same direction, and there was no expression on their faces. If it weren't for the living people to tell him, Bian Xuedao would never have imagined that there was originally a village under the mountain. In a village of more than 100 people, after the earthquake, only the 30 people who are now standing in front of the hillside remained.
kept walking, kept walking, braved the wind and rain, and finally came to Yangxiu.
No matter how many photos of the earthquake area he had seen on the Internet in his previous life, Bian Xuedao was still stunned by the scene in front of him.
The entire Yangxiu Town, ruins, ruins, or ruins......
Devastation!
