After Zhao Weidong discussed with his godfather, the godfather also explained the relevant things clearly to his family, the two packed up their things, brought enough cash and food stamps, and set off, fortunately, the time of the two people is relatively free, the godfather now wants to go to work in the supply and marketing cooperative, and there is a desk in the office, and no one cares if he doesn't go to it, and the new director is promoted by his father, and he has to take care of his godfather. I am more free during the holidays, and in this era, business trips are indispensable for business trips, otherwise it will be difficult to move an inch, and you can't live in a guest house without a certificate, because there are only state-run ones, not private ones.

After nine days of arduous journey, the two finally came to Tangshan City on the evening of July 16, they first went to the guest house to stay, Zhao Weidong took the initiative to pay the fee to check in, and the letter of introduction was really indispensable, the female toll collector returned it to Zhao Weidong after reading it, he asked the female toll collector:

"Comrade, what is your surname?"

"Comrade Zhao, my surname is Ni, you are living in a guest house."

"Yes, excuse me, how much is your best room here?"

"The best room is a suite, this can't be arranged, we want to keep the superior leaders to live, I'll give you two best single rooms, right?"

"Okay, then two single rooms, how much?"

"Each room, three dollars a day, how many days do you have to stay?"

"Let's stay for half a month." Zhao Weidong is secretly sighing in his heart, a good single room is only three yuan a day, if the price remains the same, the salary is doubled, and the people's living standards are good.

"Six dollars a day for two rooms, and a total of eighty yuan for fifteen days."

"Okay, it's eighty dollars, you can take it."

"Okay, I took you eighty yuan, this is a receipt, you take it."

"Comrade Ni, didn't you say there was an earthquake here? Looking at the way you look, why don't you take it seriously? ”

"I have been talking about any earthquake for more than a year, and there has been no movement, and now no one believes it."

"You guys are wrong, the forecast has been more than a year, which means that the earthquake is getting closer and closer, I heard from earthquake experts in Beijing that the earthquake broke out at 3 o'clock in the morning of July 28 to 4 o'clock. You must tell all your relatives and friends that they must leave the house before that day and that time, and you must remember that. ”

"Is this true?"

"It's true, the experts have determined that it is that time, you write it down, don't make a mistake, if it's wrong, it will be ruining the lives of your relatives and friends, no matter how they don't believe it, let them leave the house at that time and go to the open space outside."

"Okay, I've memorized it and written it down, can you help me see if it's wrong?"

"Okay, I'll take a look. Well, that's right, you remember to inform them as soon as possible, and also ask him to inform other relatives and friends. ”

Zhao Weidong and Ye Junhao took their respective room keys back to the guest room, Zhao Weidong opened the guest room door, and saw that the interior was relatively clean and tidy, although it was relatively simple, the ground was a cement board, a double bed, a desk, a chair, two single rattan sofas, a coffee table, two pots of boiling water in the room, and a few cups, and a simple bathroom in the single room, which had a squat toilet, a vertical porcelain basin, and a shower head. However, the guest house did not provide toiletries, but fortunately I had my own, otherwise it would be a bit troublesome.

After dinner in the canteen of the guest house, Zhao Weidong said to Ye Junhao:

"Godfather, tonight we will go separately to collect the abnormal phenomenon in the area around Tangshan, because this will be a wider range of people and more information will be collected."

"You're right, let's go our separate ways in a minute, let's go."

When they walked out of the guest house and went out into the street, the two men went their separate ways and went their separate ways. Zhao Weidong walked forward along the street, there are not many pedestrians on the street, there are many people riding bicycles, there are often horse-drawn carriages pulling goods, there are also some empty carriages, and there are a few groups of "board masters" who use hand-carts to pull things, it will take a long time before a jeep appears, the road is quite wide, there are cement, the sidewalks on both sides are mostly mud paved, the houses on both sides of the street are generally not high, most of them are one- and two-story houses, and there are relatively few more than three floors, in general, the current urban construction is still relatively backward.

Zhao Weidong looked at the many buildings and bungalows in the local area, which can be roughly divided into two categories: one is the frame structure, the foundation, the columns and the surrounding beams on each floor and the top are poured into a whole with steel bars, cement and gravel, and the brick walls, doors and windows are in the frame, but the number of buildings in this type is small.

The other type is masonry structure, and the masonry is built from the foundation: some have beams, some do not, and there are many such houses. The seismic performance of these two types of buildings is different, and the frame structure has better seismic performance and less collapsed. The wall is down, and the frame is still upright, or only slightly tilted. The masonry structure has poor shockproof performance, and it all fell down. Masonry structures can also be divided into two categories: those with reinforced concrete and crushed stone on each floor, and prefabricated slabs that lay flat on each floor. The former collapsed less severely in an earthquake and of course injured people less, while the latter collapsed more severely in an earthquake and of course injured people more heavily. These are important factors in the occurrence of heavy casualties.

As Zhao Weidong walked, he was thinking, looking at the crowds coming and going on the street, thinking that if he could not mobilize effectively, some of them would definitely not be able to see the sun on July 28, and they really didn't know anything at this time. was walking, suddenly saw a bicycle rushed out of the alley in front of him, and collided with the bicycle that was moving forward, both of them fell to the ground hard, rushed out of the alley was a female comrade, a normal straight male comrade, when he saw that he hit himself was a female comrade, it seemed that the fall was not light, he didn't care about her, and rode on the car and left.

Seeing that the female comrades had not stood up, Zhao Weidong stepped forward and asked:

"Comrade, do you need help?"

"Comrade, I'm sorry, I can't stand up, I need your help."

"Okay, no problem, I'll show you what's the problem?"

Zhao Weidong saw that she had been sitting and did not stand up, so he estimated that the female comrade might have injured her foot, so he checked her feet first, he gently pulled each foot separately, and there was no response, and it was normal for him to bend her foot again, and the female comrade did not complain of pain, it seems that there is no problem with her feet, so check your hand to see, he grabbed his right hand and moved, it can move without pain, and the problem does not appear in this hand, he carefully grabbed her left hand, moved it gently, she immediately called pain, it seems that there is a problem with this hand, Now to check whether it is a fracture or dislocation, he carefully observed the whole hand, the whole hand looks normal, but the shoulder is a little unnatural, Zhao Weidong judged that the problem is in the shoulder, from the stiffness of her hand should be a shoulder dislocation, this is easy to deal with, the master has made these more clear, Tai Chi in terms of how to hurt the opponent in terms of technical strikes, hitting in a specific position can dislocate the opponent's joint, so as to lose the ability to resist, since the opponent's joint can be dislocated, then it must have the ability to make the opponent's joint reset, I saw Zhao Weidong grab the female comrade's hand and quickly pull it hard, only to hear a "click" of the shoulder joint to reset, and the female comrade called out at this time:

"Ouch, it hurts, don't move."

"You move it manually and see how it goes."

"My hand hurts and I don't dare to move."

"You move, it's okay."

The female comrade, moved her hand a little slightly, did not feel pain, moved a little more, still did not hurt, she moved her whole hand, still did not hurt, she said to herself:

"Hey, what's going on, it's okay, why doesn't it hurt?"

"I helped you reset the dislocated shoulder joint and cured your disease, why are you still in pain."

"You cured me, aren't you, you're still a child?"

"If I hadn't healed you, who else here would have helped you heal, could it be that God had helped you?"

"It's really you, how old are you, you're too powerful."

"Where is your house, I'll send you back, your hands can't be used for a short time."

"My house is not far away, just walk back slowly by myself, you have already done me a great favor just now, why am I embarrassed to trouble you again."

"Since you do good deeds, then do good deeds to the end, don't give up halfway."

"Alright then, it's just too much trouble for you."

"You're not welcome, let's go."

Saying that, Zhao Weidong picked up the bicycle, pushed it and left, the two of them walked side by side on the street that will disappear in ten days, in terms of age, Zhao Weidong is now fourteen years old, because he has been practicing Tai Chi for a year, his body has grown very fast, and now he is eighteen years old, walking together, the two of them are almost tall, Zhao Weidong glanced at her and said:

"Miss, we've known each other for a while, let's get acquainted again, let me introduce myself first, my name is: Zhao Weidong, I don't know what your name is?"

"Mr. Zhao Weidong, my name is Wei Qiwen, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Miss Wei Qiwen, let's shake hands to express our joy of knowing each other." After speaking, Zhao Weidong stopped, held the bicycle with one hand, and stretched out his hand in front of Wei Qiwen, Wei Qiwen also stretched out his hand happily, the hands of the two people were tightly clasped together, and both of them were very happy to know each other.

"Weidong, you are from there, listen to your accent, not our locals?"

"Yes, I'm not from here, I'm from Tongyi County, Jiangxi Province."

"You're from Jiangxi, why did you come all the way here?"

"Some time ago, I heard experts say that there is going to be a big earthquake in Tangshan, but many local leaders don't believe it, and there are many people who don't believe it.

"Oh, you're here for the earthquake, do you think the earthquake will really happen?"

"It's going to happen, and it's going to happen 100 percent, and it's going to happen at 3-4 a.m. on July 28, and science has proven that, and earthquake predictions were made last year."

"Can you guarantee that the forecast is absolutely accurate?"

"I can guarantee absolute accuracy, an accurate conclusion based on numerous scientific bases."
