Chapter 014: Mayor George
The Eisen family finally escaped the catastrophe, and they did not delay any longer, leading the surviving townspeople towards Sanshui City, the closest city to Purgi Town in the north.
At the same time, the town of Purgi, where they had just left, had become unrecognizable, and after the eruption, the town had turned into a dark gray world due to the falling volcanic dust, with collapsed houses, burned debris, and broken roads, combined with the mournful wails of the disabled, forming a hell on earth.
In the house of the mayor of Purgi, George, who was disheveled and disheveled, was exhausted, but there was a resolute look in his eyes, which were somewhat cloudy by his age.
Just a moment ago, his son was robbed of his life by a boulder falling from the sky, and the pain of losing his son was enough to tear people's hearts and hearts, but he did not have time to grieve, because his daughter-in-law and grandson had not yet been found, and their life and death were still uncertain.
George wiped away his tears and continued to search, he avoided the flames and dangerous walls, house by house, and when he came to the backyard storeroom, he faintly heard the cry of a child inside, and his spirits were lifted.
Half of the walls of the storeroom had collapsed, the door was smashed crookedly, and it was in the middle of the door frame, George didn't want to kick out and break in, but what he saw was his daughter-in-law lying in a pool of blood, still clutching a handful of golden coins in her hand, and the collapsed wall was just pressing on her, and his grandson Alin sat on the ground with a dull face and whimpered, and there was money and jewelry scattered all over the ground.
George saw what was going on, "My child, why are you so stupid! You are still thinking about money when it is a matter of life and death...... Oh my poor child. George was overwhelmed with grief, cried and pounded his chest, and his cry was so helpless and miserable.
George now regrets it so much, hates himself so much, he hates himself for not doubting Haixin's words, hates himself for not going with the Eisen family, but now it's too late to say this, his son is dead, and now his daughter-in-law is also dead, he doesn't know how much courage he still has to live, and what is the point of living.
Alin, who was sitting on the ground, seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw when he saw his grandfather appear, and immediately had something to rely on, he rushed forward and kept beating George with both hands, and howled and cried at the top of his throat, "Bad grandpa! Stinky grandpa! Woo...... Why did you come, woo...... I'm so scared...... My mom died......"
The grandson's actions seemed to wake up George, and his eyes, which were still sad and godless, suddenly shone again, "Ahhh......h
George carried his fat grandson on his back and walked through the streets with great difficulty, the streets that had been unobstructed had been made difficult by rubble, lava, thick volcanic ash and collapsed houses, he had been walking around the town for a long time, but in despair he found that he could not get out at all, there were two streets out of the town, one of the stone bridges had been washed away by mudslides, and the other was blocked by fire.
The Purgi volcano is no longer erupting, but more and more volcanic ash is falling from the sky, and the hot volcanic ash can burn off a layer of skin when it falls on the skin, George's arms and arms are burned red and swollen, in order to prevent his grandson from burning, he put a thick coat over him, but this does not get them out of danger, because the most deadly thing is that the air is getting more and more turbid, these volcanic ash will prevent them from breathing, and inhaling too much into the human body can damage their lungs and suffocate people.
George noticed that his grandson had begun to have difficulty breathing and could not be delayed any longer, and he looked towards the Eisen family mansion, perhaps ...... There is still hope there.
George was going to Eisen's house, he knew that there was a demon who was imprisoned there, a demon who had killed his father ten years ago and killed his brother-in-law and many other people, and the Eisen family did not take him with him when they evacuated, although they did not kill him, but it also meant that he was sentenced to death. He was going to release him now, because he was his only hope now, no matter how dangerous it was to let him go, because he had no choice.
When he arrived at the cell in the backyard of Eisen's house, George was disappointed to see that the door of the cell was full of red and hot magma, although the magma flow was only less than 100 meters wide, but it was like a curse that blocked him in front of him and made him insurmountable.
"Hey, are the people in the prison the Fourth Elder of the Eisen family, Master Cypress?" George tiredly put down his grandson Alin and shouted inside at the top of his voice.
"Who?!!!?" The man in the prison raised his head violently when he heard someone speak, and looked out, his eyes shining like wild beasts under his loose hair.
The people outside were also disheveled, and their faces were so embarrassed and embarrassed, Cypress vaguely felt a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it, ten years of not seeing the light of day made him forget a lot.
"I'm George, the mayor of Purgi. George replied aloud.
"George, George, Mayor George?" said Cypress as if recalled.
"You're George? ...... Why are you so embarrassed?What's going on out there?" Cypress wondered.
"The mountain god is angry! Outside, the land is now cracked, and the town of Purgi is finished...... George described to him what was happening outside the prison.
"The whole town has died, and the whole family has moved away, and you...... You've been abandoned by them......"
"Hmph! In their eyes, I am afraid that they have long since denied that I am from the Eisen family. Cyprius growled angrily.
"Old man George, why don't you run away?" Cypress looked at the embarrassed George and Alin, who was already unconscious on the ground next to him, with a look of disdain, "Hmph! Are you unable to escape?"
"It's true, it's true, I'm an ordinary person who doesn't know magic martial arts, the bridge north of the town has been washed away, and the exit to the west of the town is also a sea of fire, we can't get out. George shook his head and sighed.
"Master Cypress, you're sure you'll be able to escape, won't you?" Facing George, the man who gave him the last ray of hope, was respectful, how could there be a trace of the usual domineering and domineering appearance?
After being imprisoned for ten years, Cypress thought that he was going to die in prison, but now that he has the opportunity to go out, don't mention how excited he is, but who is he? He is Cypress, the elder of a big family, and he used to be a figure on the mainland, he has his own arrogance! Even if he dies, he will not ask for help!
"Hmph! It's just a small river, it's just a vast ocean, and I can't help it!"
