Chapter 188: Fortunately

Reborn after the catastrophe, several nearby families gathered together to sigh.

The mood finally calmed down a bit, and Mr. Chen remembered that his son and daughter-in-law, as well as his mother-in-law and son, were still in the store, and he didn't know what the situation was, so as not to worry about each other.

I borrowed a mobile phone from the landlord, called my son to report his safety, and asked them about their condition.

"They're all right, let's go down. The first half of the sentence was addressed to Granny Chen, who knew that she was worried about her son. The second half of the sentence is to everyone, it's okay to stay here, and the family stays together at ease.

After talking to the landlord, the family went to the city.

Although the earthquake had stopped, they still did not dare to take it lightly, so they avoided the long alley and took the road on the other side with fewer residents.

"Oops, it scared me to death, but luckily Xiaoxi was clever and shouted, but I didn't even react. The people in the yard also came out in time, and nothing happened. There was some silence all the way, and after walking for a while, Granny Chen let out a sigh, relaxed, and sighed.

"Huh...... yes, thanks to the Creek's cleverness. Xiaoxi, how did you know that this was an earthquake?" asked Old Man Chen with some curiosity.

"I saw it in the book. Xiaoxi didn't know how to explain it, did she tell them that she had experienced it once. simply pushed it into the book, can they still go and check it one by one?

Indeed, Xiaoxi often likes to sit on the ground in Xinhua Bookstore and read books, and it is normal to know this. Everyone nodded knowingly.

If Xiaoxi knew what they were thinking at this time, she wouldn't tell them, she liked to go to Xinhua Bookstore to read books, just because it was air-conditioned and cool.

Old Man Chen nodded, "Well, it seems that it is beneficial to read more books." No, I helped everyone escape in time. ”

The other two nodded in agreement.

"Oh, it's good that we came out early, if it's a minute or two late, I don't know what will happen. They were on the second floor, and Granny Chen rejoiced again.

"I don't think anything big will happen, but if the tile hits my body, I will lie down for at least a few days. ”

"Mother's ......"

Although there are few residents on this road, it still has to pass under the eaves of other people's houses.

Moreover, although the earthquake stopped, many of the tiles on the eaves were shaken loose, and it was very unsafe, so the stream kept looking over its head.

When Old Man Chen passed, a tile suddenly fell from the eaves, Xiaoxi tensed his nerves, and quickly pulled Granny Chen in front of him backwards, avoiding the tile.

It fell to the ground with a "clang" and shattered into several halves.

Old Man Chen heard Xiaoxi's exclamation and turned back in surprise. Granny Chen clutched her chest, looked at the broken tiles on the ground, and held her breath for a long time before she gasped.

Fortunately, Xiaoxi dragged her, otherwise she would have been here today, or she would have been lying in bed for a few days, as the old man said.

The string that was tight in the hearts of several people just now was loosened, and now it is tightened again.

Old Man Chen was scared for a while, and his face was solemn, "I noticed a little bit when I walked, and I saw it above." After thinking about it, he said, "Xiaoxi, Binbin, you two go ahead." Then he went to the rear. He had to see it with his own eyes, or he wouldn't feel at ease.

Xiaoxi originally wanted to go to the back, but after thinking about it, grandpa would definitely not agree, so he walked in the front to take the lead.

After this alley, the street was wide, and the old man Chen let out a sigh. Fortunately, my mother-in-law let her rest in the store because of her poor eyes, so she saved the toss back and forth.

If she comes back with them today, I don't know what will happen.

Before they reached the store, the mood of several people became heavier and heavier.

Along the way, although it is not full of devastation, it is also embarrassing.

The streets were full of tiles, vases, and other fragments, and there were hardly any pedestrians, all gathered in open places. They all huddled together in trepidation, or talked on the phone or comforted each other.

There was no one in the spicy skewer stall next to the city wall, many parasols were smashed, chairs were scattered in a messy manner, and many fell to the ground, which looked like they had been brought down by those people when they fled in a hurry.

A lot of tiles penetrated the parasol and smashed into the pot, smashing the soup everywhere......

This place is probably the worst place in the county. Because here, the stalls are crowded, and there are many people eating spicy skewers here. There is also a barber shop and a small restaurant opposite, and there are more people.

In their small county, although there are no violations or not, these spicy skewer stalls are placed next to the city wall, which is also a violation, occupying more than half of the streets, leaving pedestrians only enough for two people to walk side by side.

There are many people and the road is narrow, and the earthquake makes people panic, so when you fled, you pushed me and squeezed, which made this street very miserable.

However, in her previous life, she had never heard of the casualties in the county in this earthquake.

Looking at the tragic situation of the street next to the city wall, several people chose to go around a little and go to the other side, the street where fruit was sold.

The street was very wide, but it was better, that is, a lot of fruit was shaken to the ground, and a lot of people trampled in panic.

Xiaoxi also saw several men, wearing a pair of pants all over their bodies, standing in the crowd. At this time, they didn't feel anything wrong, they were shy or anything, and they were glad that they had escaped.

She couldn't laugh at this time, where did people notice so much when they were running for their lives.

When the group arrived at the fruit shop, they found that the door was open, and there was no one in the store, but the dam in front of the school was full of people.

"Dad, they're coming, I'm going to call them. Father Chen patted Mother Chen's shoulder, and then walked towards Old Man Chen.

Old man Chen, a few of them don't have mobile phones, and Dad Chen is afraid that people will come and miss them on both sides, so they stand on the periphery, and as soon as they come, he can see it.

After taking Old Man Chen and them to the place where they were standing, everyone asked about their respective situations.

Although she already knew that they were fine, and now she was standing in front of her, Chen's mother still raised her voice to listen to their detailed explanations.

After saying that, she exhaled a long breath and put her heart back in her stomach. sighed: "Fortunately, you came out early." ”

Old Man Chen nodded, "How could I have thought of such a coincidence, we just stood outside the gate, and this was an earthquake." ”

"That's how you should be. ”

Chen's mother thought it was true, why didn't she pick up her mother early or late, just after yesterday, there was an earthquake today. "Fortunately, I went back yesterday to take my mother, and this eye is not easy to use, in case I tripped and fell during the earthquake, and no one knew. ”

"yes......"

"yes......"
