Volume 2 Exotic Rise Section 30 The Great New York Earthquake
How Danny Rand healed his injuries is not said for the time being, and Liu Zheng and Luo Zhijian also met uninvited guests after returning to their residences.
At that time, the two were discussing what had happened recently in the room, and Liu Zheng suddenly received a sense, jumped up from a backflip on the sofa, and rushed to the top of the building without saying a word. Luo Zhijian didn't know what to do, but he knew that Liu Zheng had the ability to sense things around him, so he followed closely behind.
The two soon ran to the rooftop of the building, and saw a young girl standing under the bright moonlight, with black hair and black eyes, who seemed to be from China. This girl (shēn) is about 1.3-40 meters tall, and she is at most a junior high school student, but her bright eyes and white skin are better than snow, and she is going in the direction of the country and the city at a young age. If it is placed in the (rì) book, she can't be called a "beautiful girl once in 40,000 years" or "a beautiful girl in 400,000 years"!
As the saying goes: Lori has three good, clean voice, soft body, easy to push down. But the Lori that Liu Zheng and the others faced didn't seem to be easy to mess with, because the look on her face was not at all the (jiāo) that she should have at this age.
There was a sharp cold light in the girl's eyes (shè), and the words she said were as cold as a blade: "Why are you still in New York, didn't you ask you to go back to China!" ”
"No, who are you?"
Luo Zhijian is the most soft and not hard, and when he saw that this Lori spoke so politely, he immediately became angry.
The girl didn't bother to look at him, turned her head to Liu Zheng and said, "You, buy a ticket immediately, and leave for me early tomorrow morning." ”
"Little sister, be careful when talking to your brothers, don't be big or small, didn't the teacher teach you to be polite?" Luo Zhijian was angry, and now the post-00s are all so virtuous? "Be careful, brothers, get angry and hit you (pì)."
The girl's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and she only stretched out her hand to grab Luo Zhijian's void, and an invisible force tightly wrapped him around him, leaving the ground and flying over. The girl's hand pressed down again, and Luo Zhijian didn't even have a chance to resist, but before he could scream, he was pressed into the marble floor under his feet.
"Hey, what are you doing, stop!"
Liu Zheng didn't expect the girl to do it so directly, and before she could react, Luo Zhijian suffered a big loss, and pounced on her legs. The girl opened her other hand again, Liu Zheng only felt that his mouth was hit by a sledgehammer, and the whole person flew out upside down and hit the wall, invisible power surged from all directions, and the huge pressure held him down and couldn't move, and he was also dragged and flew towards the girl.
Luo Zhijian had never studied martial arts and couldn't feel the role of internal force, but Liu Zheng was clear, so he was completely stunned, so much so that he forgot to resist.
The girl used "The Crane Captures the Dragon"!
This is already the third person Liu Zheng has ever seen who knows this magic skill, when did this kind of legendary-level martial arts become a rotten street?
The girl sucked Liu Zheng in front of her, twisted his collar, and shouted angrily: "Are you kidding me!" Tomorrow must be given to me, and I will never be allowed to come to New York again! Do you hear that? ”
Liu Zheng looked at the girl closely, and found that it was not someone he knew, but this appearance always felt familiar...
The girl's willow eyebrows were upside down, her eyes almost erupted with fire, her wrist flipped, and the power to suppress Liu Zheng flipped, and he fell on all fours and gnawed on the mud.
"I've got to get back tomorrow." The girl's voice came out from between her teeth, cold as ice, "I won't say it a second time, you either go by yourself obediently, or I will break your leg and send it back, and choose for yourself." ”
Liu Zheng swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, he only felt that the girl's tone was not like a threat to them, but more like a warning, but what happened? Who the hell is she?
Just when he didn't know what to say, the girl's expression suddenly changed, her face was blue and white for a while, and suddenly she let out a long roar (shēn), like a bird jumping onto the roof of a nearby building a hundred meters away, and disappeared into the darkness in the distance with a few ups and downs.
Losing control of his power, a big black hand stretched out from the broken hole in the ground, and he jumped up by pushing away the broken stone on the shēn, fangs and claws to find the hateful child, who had rarely been completely transformed (shēn) once in a long time, and it seemed that being defeated by a little girl made him very faceless.
"Damn, Lao Liu, where is the little girl? I'm going to beat her! ... What happened to you? ”
Liu Zheng didn't speak, just stared blankly into the distance, and a serious look of horror gradually rose.
A strong and inexplicable sense of uneasiness came over him, like an invisible hand pinching him
His throat kept him from breathing. Soon they heard a loud noise coming from all directions, closer and closer, louder and louder, and then a flock of birds and birds flew swiftly overhead, and the two of them were startled with a numb scalp.
The brightly lit metropolis in the distance suddenly became dark, and the darkness spread extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, all the electrical appliances in the building stopped working at the same time, and they fell into absolute darkness where they could not see their fingers, and even the moon in the sky lost its luster at this moment. The screams of terror suddenly erupted in mid-air like a hurricane, and at that moment, the entire city seemed to fall into nine hells.
How strong is the sixth sense inherited from the beast, not to mention Liu Zheng's sensing ability, the two glanced at each other, and they both saw panic in each other's eyes, and they couldn't help but scream at the same time.
", there's an earthquake, run!"
Just when the two realized that something had happened, Matt Murdoch, who was far away in Hell's Kitchen, had just returned home, and he had fought a lawsuit during the day and worked late into the night in the law firm, and he was already exhausted. After a short break on the couch, he got up (shēn) and walked to the refrigerator to quench his thirst with a bottle of beer, but as soon as he opened the refrigerator door, his hands froze in the air.
Murdoch is not an ordinary person, although his eyes cannot see, his other senses are a thousand times more acute. The slight vibration of the ground made his brain dizzy for a moment, and the sound of distant dogs barking and birds flapping their wings reached his ears for the first time, and the "ding" crunch of beer bottles colliding with each other rumbled in his ears like thunder.
The tremors intensified, car sirens sounded outside, dust fell from the ceiling, and picture frames hung on the walls fell to the ground and shattered.
With a loud "boom", the huge electronic display screen hanging on the wall of the mall outside the window exploded because it could not stand the lateral shear force caused by uneven settlement, and the fire was reflected on Murdoch's face, which was red.
The house he rented, a converted bomb shelter, was safe (xìng), and Murdoch lay on his stomach calmly, quietly waiting for the sudden earthquake to end, but if anyone looked closer, they would find that a faint flame was dancing in his otherwise chaotic eyes.
Jessica Jones was learning the details of the disappearance at John Raymond's home, when the earthquake struck without warning, and the Mitchell mother and daughter hid under the dining table for the first time.
The structure of the house they lived in was clearly not so good, the earthquake damaged the load-bearing columns on both sides of the house, and the second floor above the head of the restaurant collapsed, threatening to swallow up the dining table. Jessica didn't have time to think about it, she rushed over in two steps, and her slender hands reached for the giant cement block that smashed into the dining table without hesitation......
Danny, who was healing his wounds in the building, had just spewed out a mouthful of thick black blood when he was awakened by a strange noise coming from under his head. He immediately realized what was happening, and Qi (shēn) rushed to the gate as fast as he could, but it was too late, and the corridor outside the door collapsed in a large area, and the smoke and dust obscured the entire passage, so that he could not see anything, so he had to close the door and turn back.
The earthquake was even stronger than before, and the whole building shook violently, and Danny could feel the floor tilting very noticeably, and the clutter of tables and chairs slipping in one direction. This means that the edifice is probably really going to collapse. The only exit was blocked, and Danny was so anxious that he sweated on his forehead, so he had to look at the glass curtain wall on the high side, it seemed that there was the only way out, but he didn't know if his internal strength could hold it.
He took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, sprinted a few steps, slammed into the glass, and jumped out.
The whole city was dark, and after a moment of loss, Danny finally found the right direction, and once again used the "gecko swimming wall skill", and the whole person stuck to the wall. The building swayed very much, and the middle floor was already obviously distorted and deformed, and I am afraid that it would not take long for it to collapse, leaving him with little time left to escape.
The noise from the breaking of the steel bars and the breaking of the concrete structure is tooth-sore, the building swayed left and right, Danny stuck to the wall and did not dare to move, but the internal force is still rapidly draining, according to the current consumption rate, he will fall down because he can't absorb the wall in ten seconds, or maybe it won't take so long at all, the building will be the first to collapse and bury him alive.
Danny is not without the experience of life and death, but under the power of nature, all efforts seem to be there
In vain and powerless...
Just when he was dying, a voice suddenly came from his ears.
"Need help, man?"
Without waiting for him to say anything, an arm took him around and led him away from the shaky (yù) falling building.
The wind howled in his ears, and Danny was led between the buildings (dàng), and in a short time he was on the ground. As soon as his feet hit the ground, he immediately bent down and spat out a big "wow", and this habit of coming and going (xìng) almost tortured him crazy.
The person who saved him smiled, jumped up and walked away.
"Wait, who are you?" Danny shouted at the back.
There was an intermittent sound of reply in the air.
"I—your—good neighbor—live ————"
Good neighbors? What a mess ... Danny was momentarily speechless.
The shaking of the earth stopped after about ten seconds, and the edifice finally collapsed with a clumsy ruin, like a tomb, completely burying Harold Meacham's ambitions and sins. This dark experience has finally returned to dust, and it has become a dusty past that no one will want to mention again in the future.
——————————
The cups and bottles in the room shattered to the ground, but when the earthquake finally stopped, Murdoch stood up cautiously (shēn), staring blankly around. The cries of women and children, the cries of men, the cries for help, the sound of sirens... Countless jumble sounds burrowed into his ears, filled his brain, and made him dizzy.
"We need to hurry down and take the stairs! Get downstairs, quick, quick! ”
"Attention units, there are police officers injured, please come to the rescue immediately!"
"Bless thy people, O God Almighty..."
"You dialed the wrong number... Please check before dialing..."
"Mom, I can't open the door!"
...
"Take whatever you see!"
"Hey, what are you doing, don't take anything from my store! Robbery, robbery! ”
Matt Murdoch didn't hesitate any longer, and rushed out of the room.
——————————
Michelle Raymond opened her eyes, and the expected death had not befallen her, which made her a little puzzled. She was shocked by the scene in front of her, the girl who looked weak, Jessica Jones, supported the floor slab that should have been pressed down with her own arms, and at this moment she was simply the transformation of the goddess! Lexi Raymond in Mihir's arms is full of little stars, and she simply treats Jessica as an idol star.
With a wave of her hand, Jessica threw the multi-ton thick cement slab aside, opened the dining table again, pulled Michelle and her daughter out, and escorted them out the door. The earthquake has just ended, and there may be many more aftershocks, and it is very dangerous to stay in a structurally damaged house.
——————————
"Fuck, it was so thrilling just now." Although the two ran to a safe place, Luo Zhijian still had palpitations, "I said, Lao Liu." Isn't New York a delta created by the divergence of two rivers, an alluvial plain? Why is there an earthquake in such a place?? ”
"How do I know!"
Liu Zheng replied angrily, but he was thinking about the girl just now. She behaved so strangely before leaving, and the earthquakes could be said to have followed, is there any connection between the two? The more I think about it, the more strange it becomes, it's definitely not that simple!
The earthquake came and went so fast that not even a single aftershock was left. But despite this, it still brought great fear to the citizens of Manhattan, and for a time the whole city fell into chaos, and there were frequent law and order incidents, which caused a lot of pressure on the police.
A cruise ship had just stopped in the harbor of Manhattan when an earthquake struck, and the passengers and crew on board ran away, leaving only one person left. This is a young black man, with no hair on the top of his head, and wearing a tattered linen coat, but quite similar to Danny who came to New York from Qiantang.
The black young man unhurriedly disembarked from the boat, looked at the thick cracks in the ground, frowned slightly, and then set out on the journey without hesitation, walking into the dark depths of the city.
