Chapter 148: Doom Won't Be Escaped
On the night of the earthquake, the people of Daliangshan were unprepared.
At that time, Xifeng's sister-in-law was making sweaters under the oil lamp, and the wool was brought back from the city by Brother Da Tam, and Xifeng's sister-in-law had just beaten half of it.
When Brother Da rammed died, the sweater was not finished, and the man did not wear it on his body when he was dying.
Brother Da Tam left, Xifeng was going to remove the sweater and fight again, this time to Zhang Crutche, because Zhang Crutch was not the same size as Brother Da Tam.
At that time, the girl did not have the slightest preparation, the girl sat in the school office to prepare for class, and after the preparation was completed, she was still embroidering mandarin duck handkerchiefs and mandarin duck pillow scarves.
She collected all her affection for Hailiang in the hand, embroidering pillows and handkerchiefs more and more, but she didn't give any of them.
She knew that Hailiang would not want, let alone accept her love. When these things are fine, they can only be taken out and appreciated by one person.
At that time, Wang Hailiang's mother was spinning under the oil lamp, the spinning wheel was humming, and her man Wang Qingxiang had just finished seeing the last patient, and when he returned home, he opened a jar of old wine and tasted it.
Hailiang's daughter-in-law, Yuzhu, was breastfeeding the child Lingling on the kang, patting the child and humming a lullaby in her mouth.
Zhang Ergou's aunt was also weaving in the West House, and the loom was bright, and the light was ringing all night.
Zhang Damao of the willow formation has just finished inspecting all the willow weaving, and after eating, he hugged the woman's big white pear on the kang.
The whole village is immersed in tranquility.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound not far away, and at first, the rumbling sound was not very loud, as if a river was wading through the mountains, as if a big hand was brushing over the willows...... And then the sound grew louder and louder...... Like a great river flowing fast...... It was like an overwhelming wind, as if thousands of bison were galloping together on the grassland, as if thousands of wild wolves were howling together.
The sound came from far and near, and in the blink of an eye it was overhead, and the whole house shook, the oil lamps on the table flickered, and the pots and pans of the kitchen rattled.
Then the shaking became more and more violent, the frequency became greater and more violent, and the tiles on the roof fell down with a clatter, and the dust on the walls peeled off little by little, and cracks began to appear.
The tables, chairs and benches in the room moved back and forth, swaying, the window paper whirred, and the people lying on the kang also rolled involuntarily.
All the people didn't know what was going on, and the people in their sleep thought they were having nightmares again, so they quickly covered their heads with quilts and shrank in.
The spinners stopped spinning, the weavers stopped weaving, and all the people looked at the roof strangely, and no one realized that the great calamity was coming.
It wasn't until the sound of the wall collapsing outside, the panicked screams of chickens, ducks, geese and dogs, and the shouts of neighbors that everyone realized that something was wrong.
The first thing they feel is ...... The ground moved.
The people in the mountains don't know what ground movement is, and they are used to calling earthquakes ground movements.
Seeing the rafters on the roof peeling off little by little, cracks in the roof made of reed mats, and crumbling beams on the roof, it was only then that some people felt that something was wrong.
I don't know who it was, but the first one rushed out of the house, ran out onto the street, and opened his throat: "The ground is moving!" The ground moved! Everyone, run and run for your life!! ”
Immediately, the whole village was in a panic, the adults were crying, the children were screaming, and the clothed and unclothed were running out of the house.
Many people are still asleep, and many people are understood what is going on, and an invisible hand has begun to devastate the mountain village.
That big hand broke the trees, broke the chimneys, smashed the houses, and shook the whole Daliang Mountain.
Not only did the owner's house shake, but so did the mountain peaks in the distance. The roar was like the whistle of countless trains sounding together, and the sound was deafening and earth-shattering.
He tore through the mountains and leveled the valleys, and the huge canopy of trees was torn back and forth by the big hand, and the trunks and leaves snapped on the ground.
Aware of the danger, people crawled in tow, dragging women, holding children, and rushed out of the house from the kang and fled.
They stumbled and stumbled to find a place to hide, calling for their children and daughters.
Some people ran a little slower and didn't get out of the house, when they were hit on the top of their heads by a beam falling from the roof.
Some people were sleeping, and just realized the danger, and before they got up, they were hit in the back by the collapsed house, and the whole person was slapped under the wall.
Some people have just walked out of the house, and the house collapses with a bang, and the collapsed house sets off a huge air current, pushing the family members far away.
Some people fled to the streets, but they still did not fall to the fate of the collapsed houses around them, and the streets were full of falling tiles and stones that slipped from the walls, hitting the top of the head, and immediately falling to the ground unconscious.
The entire Daliang Mountain was subverted in an earth-shattering ordeal, the sound of the collapse of the houses, the screams of the wounded, the cries of the people, the chirping of chickens, ducks and hungry dogs, and the roar of the earth being bumped. Even if a man has a hundred hands and a hand has a hundred fingers, he cannot point to one place. A man has a hundred mouths and a hundred snakes in his mouth, and he cannot see one end.
All the villages were destroyed almost instantly, all the houses collapsed in an instant, some escaped, and none escaped. Those who escaped ran in the streets, and those who could not escape were drowned in their houses.
The luckiest family in Pimple Slope should be Wang Hailiang's home.
The people in Wang Hailiang's family were stained with the light of the black tiger this night.
At supper, the black tiger became restless, and the hounds ran back and forth in the yard, howling as they ran, like crazy.
The hounds scurried up the wall for a while, and then dug the earth with their paws, and the four hooves dug a lot of pits in the yard, and the dust was flying.
When Wang Qingxiang returned, the hound pounced on it and put its two paws on its master's shoulders.
Wang Qingxiang didn't know what was wrong with the black tiger at all, and thought that the hound was affectionate to him.
But when he washed his hands and was about to enter the house, the black tiger opened his mouth and pulled his master's clothes with sharp dog teeth, and did not let Wang Qingxiang enter the house at all.
Wang Qingxiang didn't understand dog language, thought that the black tiger was crazy, and raised his leg to give him a kick.
Hai Liangniang was spinning yarn in the house, and she also heard the dog barking of the hunting dog, she thought that the black tiger had reached its menstrual period and missed the female dog, so she threw out a sentence: "His father, another day, he will cut this day badly, and he will scream all day long, and he will annoy people to death." ”
Wang Qingxiang ignored the woman, entered the house and opened a jar of wine, and used the power of the wine to drive away the exhaustion.
The black tiger ran in the yard for half the night, and roared for half the night, and when it barked like this, the dogs of Daliang Mountain also neighed together, making the whole street so noisy that they couldn't sleep.
Yuzhu in the east room was breastfeeding the child, and the little girl Lingling was also awakened, and Wow Wow began to cry.
The hound's ears suddenly straightened, and he gasped for breath, rolled his eyes, and swooped into the room with a whoosh.
After entering the house, the black tiger didn't say a word, Feisheng jumped on the earthen kang, grabbed Lingling's swaddling clothes at once, and ran away after holding it.
The black tiger picked up the spirit and rushed out of the room just like you.
Yuzhu next to her was startled, thinking that the black tiger was crazy, showing its wildness, and wanted to eat the child, she shouted: "Dad-! Mother--! Look at it, the black tiger has snatched the child. ”
As soon as they heard that the black tiger had snatched their granddaughter Lingling, Hai Liangniang and Wang Qingxiang were also startled and hurriedly rushed out of the house.
Yuzhu also rushed out of the house barefoot and began to compete with the hounds for the child.
The black tiger was holding the little girl Lingling, still running in the yard, Wang Qingxiang and Hai Liangniang were frightened, they were worried that the hound would bite their granddaughter.
Wang Qingxiang picked up a flat pole and planned to teach the black tiger a lesson, but the flat pole was not picked up, and the rumbling sound came from far and near, and it came urgently.
The whole earth shook, the whole room shook, and the pots and pans in the kitchen fell to the ground with a thud and shattered.
Wang Qingxiang and Hailiang were dumbfounded, and Yuzhu was also dumbfounded.
At this time, they understood the reason why the black tiger took Lingling...... It turned out that a great earthquake came, and people couldn't feel it, but the hounds felt it.
The hound rushed into the house to save the little master Lingling, fearing that she would be stoned to death by the beams of the house.
After such a fuss, the family rushed out of the house, and the hound saved the lives of Wang Qingxiang's family.
When the earthquake struck, the whole earth began to shake, sway, tremble, and deafening, the black tiger felt panicked for the first time, and felt the catastrophe for the first time, it was frightened, holding the spirit in its mouth, and plunged into Yuzhu's arms, and its legs began to tremble, and its whole body trembled.
Yuzhu finally understood everything, this is the righteous dog savior. If it weren't for the black tiger, not only Lingling would have died, but also his father-in-law and mother-in-law would have died, and he would not have escaped his doom.
Lingling was not injured, the hound teeth were bitten just right, and he shrank in Yuzhu's arms and did not move, and a mournful whine came out of his mouth.
Yuzhu's tears were about to flow, and she really didn't know what to say when she hugged the neck of the hound: "Black Tiger, thank you, thank you......"
The ground movement is getting stronger and stronger, and the people in the courtyard can't stand at all, Hai Liangniang pounced on Yuzhu as soon as possible and hugged her daughter-in-law tightly. Wang Qingxiang also jumped up and helped Yuzhu hug the child.
Looking up suddenly, he saw the big spring tree in the yard, the spring tree was as thick as a hug, even though the mountain shook, but the position of the spring tree was not moving.
Wang Qingxiang shouted: "Quick! Let's hold the trunk, hold the trunk and don't be afraid, hurry. ”
He pulled the woman with one hand and his daughter-in-law with the other, and pounced on Haruki at once, and the three of them hugged Haruki tightly at the same time.
The hound whined, tucked its tail, and hid under Yuzhu.
On the ground, the sky is spinning, and it is impossible to distinguish between north and south, the sky is turning, the earth is turning, the house is turning, and the trees are also turning. The qiē around it is like a spinning top that has been plucked by someone, flying back and forth.
Less than a minute later, there was a loud bang, and the hundred-year-old house of Wang Qingxiang's family collapsed, and the east house where Hailiang and Yuzhu lived also collapsed.
The roof of the house fell to the ground, and the surrounding walls also flipped over, and as soon as the walls fell, the dust that rushed over was immediately filled, and puffs of dust and smoke flew up, and they couldn't see each other clearly.
As soon as the houses on this side fell, there were no obstacles, and Yuzhu and the others suddenly saw the street from this side.
The streets were chaotic, there were people everywhere, domestic animals were scurrying around, and not only those who had escaped could not find a place to hide, but also domestic animals could not find a place to hide.
Pigs, cows, sheep, dogs, including a qiē poultry, have all become helpless lonely souls, overwhelmed by the rocks, buried by the buried.
The people on the street couldn't stand up at all, and they threw themselves on the ground, and after they fell to the ground, their bodies couldn't stop shaking as the earth tossed.
The man held the woman's hand, the adult held the child's hand, calling one after another, calling for help, and a string of tears, all trembling, confused, and desperate with the shock of Daliang Mountain......
