All the media was talking about the earthquake.

The earthquake that occurred in the middle of the night on the 28th in this city was only of a magnitude of three levels, and in fact, an earthquake of this magnitude could not cause harm to people at all. Facts have also proved that several earthquakes on the night of 28 June only knocked down some simple houses built in violation of regulations in the suburbs, and the biggest loss suffered in the urban area was glass. There were also glass that smashed and injured some people when it fell into the street after it shattered.

Relevant experts from the Earthquake Bureau once again appeared in the media, reiterating the many reasons why an earthquake of magnitude 5 or higher is absolutely impossible for the city to occur, and further expressed the hope that the broad masses of the people will not be alarmed by several small-scale earthquakes on the evening of 28 July, let alone affect their normal work and life.

The director of the Public Security Bureau also made a televised speech, declaring that anyone who dared to take advantage of the panic caused by the earthquake among the masses to engage in illegal activities would be punished more severely.

The city held an emergency meeting because of the earthquake, and the top leaders of various ministries, commissions, bureaus, districts, and counties attended the meeting. The sole theme of the meeting was how to stabilize people's minds and maintain a normal working order and living environment. After the meeting, each unit carried out large-scale publicity activities within its own system or jurisdiction. On the one hand, we should organize the masses to learn the basic knowledge of earthquakes and how to save themselves when an earthquake occurs, and on the other hand, we should try our best to publicize the various reasons why a large-scale earthquake is unlikely to occur in our city.

But these efforts have not been able to dispel the panic caused by the earthquake in the city.

All the malls and supermarkets were overcrowded on the 29th, and there were long queues at the cash registers. The main items that were snapped up were food and various daily necessities. The malls used almost all their reserves, and some even raised prices without authorization, but this still couldn't resist the rush of purchases.

All the empty green squares and sports fields in the city have been privately built as simple "earthquake-proof sheds". When the chengguan and the public security departments were managing according to law, there were disputes with the masses, and the final result was that the chengguan and public security quietly retreated, and the leaders concerned personally came forward to do everyone's ideological work, but it was ineffective. Those earthquake-proof sheds bloom in different forms in the city, and many people make them their homes, as if they are going to fight a protracted war.

Although the leading organs and subordinate units are still working normally, many private enterprises and companies have to temporarily suspend business under the strong demand of many employees.

At the ticket gate of the bus station and the railway station, the long queue for ticket buyers has been lined up from the ticket hall to the square outside. Many people choose to run away from the impending disaster. They contacted their friends and relatives in other places, and after receiving the promise, they went to other cities to escape the impending disaster. Among these outflows are many migrant workers who have come to the city to work.

In addition to the booming business in shopping malls and supermarkets, there is another industry that has also ushered in a peak, that is, travel agencies. People who choose to travel at this time actually choose a wait-and-see attitude. They have little choice of itineraries, and most of them travel for a week or so. In this way, you can not only dissolve the foreseeable disasters invisibly, but also use this leisure time to visit the mountains and rivers, and enjoy your temperament.

It was already the end of June, and all the major primary and secondary schools ushered in a two-month summer vacation, which made the school all sigh and secretly rejoice that they had saved a lot of trouble.

At this time of year, the campus should be silent. But this year was clearly different, and the school's sports field became an excellent place for nearby residents to take refuge from the earthquake, so those earthquake-proof shelters also appeared in the school. Although the school has the intention to come out to stop it, but the people's will, even the urban management and public security can't control the matter, and there is nothing to be done by relying on the school security department alone.

Saab still stays at school during the holidays, and he frequents the audio-visual gym most often. There is an Internet in the audio-visual hall, and he has friends on the Internet, and everyone gathers together to communicate with each other, and it is easy to pass the time of the day. This year, the school has become very noisy, which makes him feel quite fresh. On the way from the dormitory to the audio-visual education hall, he would often deliberately slow down, and when he passed the playground, he would often stop for a while.

There are all kinds of earthquake-proof shelters set up on the playground, and the more beautiful ones are the kind of small tents used for traveling, which are brightly colored and do not take up much space. The uglier ones are the ones that are made of bamboo poles and covered with dark green tarpaulin. It was mostly children and women who were excited about the change in their lifestyles, and their new acquaintances ran and chased back and forth between the tents. And the women who had nothing to do also sat in the shade and chattered about their daily routines, and before the meal, they would scatter in front of their own earthquake-proof sheds, and the smell of rice wafted from the pot stove by the door.

It is the first time that there is such a strong atmosphere of life on campus.

That morning, Shabo was bedridden and did not wake up, when he received a call from Yang Xing. Yang Xing said that he and Xiaofei were on their way to school. Shabo was in a trance for a moment, remembering that school was already over, why didn't these two go home yet. But he didn't have time to ask, Yang Xing over there asked him to wait for them in the dormitory, so he hung up the phone.

Shabo lay on the bed for a while, calculating that it was time for them to come, and then got up to wash. After waiting for a long time, I didn't see Yang Xing and Xiaofei coming, and I was hungry, so I wanted to eat something at the food stall outside the school. When he went out, he was afraid that he would go wrong with Yang Xing, so he came back and left a note on the door.

Walking in the schoolyard, the playground was noisy again, and several children of whose family ran back and forth like crazy despite the bright sun, and the voice of the woman scolding sounded in some corner, the voice was sharp and melodious. Shabo smiled dumbly and walked around the playground and down the concrete road that connected the dormitory to the school gate.

Shabo used to wake up early, and slept until this day because he stayed up all night last night and didn't sleep until almost five o'clock. A girl named Forget-me-Grass on the Internet stayed with him all night.

Forget Worries is really a very understanding girl, when she and Shabo first met on the Internet, she was a little timid, and she always asked Shabo to say three words, and she only replied. Later, everyone got acquainted, and the lively side of her personality gradually revealed, and she was able to joke with Shabo occasionally. The small-town girls in Shabo's imagination must be full of yearning for the outside world, and the bright lights of the big city should be enough allure for them. But the performance of Forget-me-weed was beyond his expectations, she was very content with the quiet life of the town, and liked the kind of idyllic scenery that was independent of the world. In this kind of society, there are not many people who are content with peace. When Shabo was chatting with Forget Worries, he opened the photo she sent and stared at the girl in the gap between her words.

The girl in the photo is standing in a lush vineyard, it should be morning, and a thin mist wafts through the garden, and the girl smiles and walks through the grape trellis and fog. Dressed in a floor-length white cotton dress and long black hair, she was dressed as a slender girl. The girl has narrow shoulders, a thin waist, and a long skirt that dances and stirs the fog, and the girl looks a little more dusty. The girl was smiling, and a faint ray of sunlight fell on her face, and the fair face had a more brilliant feeling. The girl's smile was very quiet, like a snow lotus in the snow, and when people faced it, even the most restless heart would instantly become quiet.

Later, when he left the audio-visual education hall, Sha Bo's heart was full of tenderness.

I have been chatting with Forget Worry Grass on the Internet for more than two months, and although the two have never confessed anything to each other, they have formed a deep tacit understanding between them. When Shabo came to the Internet, what he wanted to see most was Forget Worry Grass, and Forget Worry Grass would always come as scheduled at the time of his appointment.

This tacit understanding alone can already intoxicate Shabo.

The two chatted late that night, and before they knew it, the sky was already slightly white. As dawn approached, Shabo left the audio-visual hall and returned to the dormitory. The audio-visual education hall is on the sixth floor of a teaching building, and when Shabo went down the stairs, the sound of footsteps echoed in the empty and silent corridor, which was a little calm. But Saboeu was tired by the moment, especially his eyes, and after sitting in front of the monitor all night, they were so sour that they felt like a weight on his eyelids. All he wanted to do now was to get back to his dorm room and fall asleep.

The dizziness happened again at this moment, and even Shabo didn't even have time to think.

First the darkness became brighter, but it was undoubtedly still darkness, and they jumped and danced, and soon took over the entire world of Shabo. Because he had a similar experience, Shabo quickly stood against the wall when the vertigo began, and then slowly crouched down.

The shining darkness was spinning faster and faster, and Shabo's only feeling was that the world was spinning. It's a bit like a knife show he watched at a park circus as a kid. The actor blindfolded and threw the flying knife in his hand continuously. Opposite him was a large wheel, to which the other man's limbs were fastened, and the wheel was spinning before the actor's throwing knife was struck.

- The world is spinning.

Through the shining darkness, some scenes were vaguely reflected. In fact, the scene is still composed of some darkness, but the darkness gradually has a level of light and dark. It's a fire, a black fire. The black flames quickly swelled up and spread all over the mountains. Shabo saw that the fire was burning on the mountain, and the mountain had a sense of déjà vu. And he wondered, "Where is that mountain?"

The height of the flames was about the height of a person, and they were arranged in layers in a very regular manner. Shabo wanted to look more closely, when the darkness came deeper, and he couldn't even tell the difference between dark and light.

The wheel began to spin again, and the feeling of the sky spinning dispelled the flames.

The flames gradually died out, and the bright darkness finally died still.

Sabo was still crouched in the corner, his eyes closed. He needed some time to confirm that the vertigo was over.

Later, Sabo lay on the bed in the dormitory, his eyes still swelling and aching. After each vertigo, he was extremely tired, as if the dizziness required too much of his physical strength. So, that night he had no time to ponder the flames he had seen when he was dizzy, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

In his dream, he saw black fire again. But the fire burned very shortly, and was disturbed by the sound of a bell. Sha Bo answered the phone in a daze, it was Yang Xing and Xiaofei.

Walking in the sun, Sabo deliberately did not allow himself to think about the black flames he saw in his sleep, because according to his previous experience, many of the scenes he saw when he was dizzy were for no reason, and if everything had to be verified in reality, it would be very hard work, and obviously unwise.

This summer's campus is different from every year, which makes Sabo's mood much brighter. Without these refugemen, he would have had to spend a deserted holiday alone.

went to the stall outside for breakfast, and wondered if Yang Xing and Xiaofei had arrived, so after paying Sha Bo, he went back to the dormitory. In the open space downstairs in the dormitory, he saw Yang Xing and Xiaofei carrying a bag of things, and they were looking at the road with their heads probed.

First, Xiaofei saw Sha Bo coming, so she pulled Yang Xing. Yang Xing was carrying a net bag, and inside the net pocket was a shoebox. He drooped his head, listless, and glanced up in the direction from which Shabo had come, and his eyes were soft and powerless. So Sabo thought, something must have happened to this guy.

"Lao Sha, Lao Sha, why did you go, let us wait for a long time." Xiao Fei jumped over.

Sha Bo glared at her, then looked at Yang Xing, and said with a calm face: "It's the third day of the holiday now, why haven't you two gone home yet?" Sha Bo had long known that Yang Xing and Xiaofei's homes were in two different cities, and according to convention, they should go home separately after the holidays. In fact, Shabo had already vaguely guessed the reason in his heart when he asked, but as a teacher, he was still obliged to ask.

Xiaofei grinned: "Lao Sha, don't be such a mother-in-law, is it easy to go back on vacation, you can give us some freedom." "If you don't say it, I know." Shabo snorted, "You guys stick together all day in school, and you don't want to be separated now that it's a holiday." He glanced at the wilting Yang Xing again, and then said, "I tell you, you must not make any trouble, otherwise there will be a time for you to cry." Xiaofei nodded exaggeratedly, and gave a heavy "um", which was regarded as an answer to Shabo.

Shabo led them to the dormitory, and asked on the way, "What are you looking for me today, it can't be that you don't have any money in your pocket?" I can tell you, it is not easy for me to earn some salary, but if you don't have my idea, go home as soon as you have no money, and I will sponsor you a ticket at most. Xiaofei snorted disdainfully: "Lao Sha, can you change something new?" If we don't have the money to rob the bank, we won't come to you. "Then it's so easy for you to grab some free time, why don't you enjoy the world of the two of you, why are you running here?" "Don't we treat you as a friend, I'm afraid that you will be lonely alone in school, so we came to see you." "I panicked when I heard this, you must be thinking about me again." Xiao Fei grinned: "Lao Sha, you are scared, the bird with the bow, the grass and trees are all soldiers." Shabo frowned and said, "Whoever has a student like you can't be afraid of it." When she arrived at the dormitory, Xiaofei sat honestly on the chair in front of the desk, while Yang Xing lay down on the bed with a big grin, burying her head in the pillow, as if she was extremely sleepy and exhausted.

Xiao Fei stared at Sha Bo with big eyes, as if she had something to say. Sha Bo didn't ask, and in the end she couldn't help it, and said, "Lao Sha, discuss something with you, can you borrow our kitchen?" Sabo didn't react for a long time, and the two kids came all the way back to school to borrow something from his kitchen to eat? I've known these two kids for so long, and I haven't heard of any of them ever going to the kitchen. Sha Bo showed a suspicious face, and stared at the smiling Xiaofei in front of him with some scrutiny.

Xiaofei was glared at by Sha Bo unnaturally, she smiled embarrassedly again, suddenly turned to the side of the bed, and dragged the wilting Yang Xing up: "You still tell Lao Sha about this, don't let me be the pioneer in everything." Yang Xing still drooped his head, his hands hanging on his legs indiscriminately, as if he hadn't eaten for many days, but his eyes were still a little unruly. Of course, Yang Xing didn't care about Sha Bo's scrutinizing gaze, but what he wanted to say obviously made him a little embarrassed, so he hesitated for a moment, but finally said calmly: "I'm sick, I don't want to eat anything." Sha Bo didn't squeak for a long time, and he really heard Yang Xing's words, but he still didn't react.

Yang Xing looked at Sha Bo's stunned expression, and said loudly again angrily: "I don't want to eat anything." Shabo smiled, first with a smile on his face, and then with a laugh.

Yang Xing stood up angrily: "Lao Sha, if you laugh again, I will turn my face with you." Xiaofei also rolled her eyes at Sha Bo in disgust: "Lao Sha, this is wrong for you, we treat you as a friend, so we told you about this, don't you always be so giggling?" How old are they, and they still look like children. Shabo nodded again and again, and said "uh-huh" in his mouth, but he still couldn't hold back the smile on his face.

"Okay, can't I stop laughing?" Sha Bo said to Yang Xing, "Since you don't want to eat anything, why do you want to borrow my kitchen?" Yang Xing sat on the bed again, showing an aggrieved expression: "I don't want to eat anything, but I am hungry, do you know?" I was so hungry that the dogs running on the street drooled, but I had no appetite for anything to eat. Seeing Yang Xing's sluggish and pitiful appearance, Sha Bo stopped smiling, and he realized that these two children were really in trouble now. But he still couldn't understand what Yang Xing said.

Xiaofei on the side interjected: "He doesn't know when he got this problem, he was disgusted when he saw what he ate, and he stuffed it into his mouth, as if he wanted to die." It's easy to eat it, and I'm sure I'll spit it out after a while. It's a big loss to eat a little bit and spit out a lot. Shabo asked, "Why don't you go to the hospital if you are sick?" Xiaofei said: "I've been there, and those doctors have tried their best to make bad decisions in addition to charging indiscriminately." They examined Yang Xing's stomach and intestines, and concluded that it was more normal than ordinary people, so they were fine. Finally, I prescribed some appetizing medicine, and let us go out more often, maybe we can come across what we want to eat. "So you go and wander, and you get to what you want to eat." This time Xiaofei didn't speak, and Yang Xing on the bed said with a puzzled face: "I'm not sure I want to eat, but I have to try it, otherwise, in another week, I will have to starve to death." At this time, Sha Bo understood everything, he looked at Yang Xing, then at Xiaofei, and finally his eyes fell on the shoebox that Yang Xing threw on the side of the door as soon as he entered the door. As if in response to Sabo's gaze, there was a sound of "flutter" in the shoebox. Shabo was startled, he didn't expect the shoebox to be a living thing.

At this time, Yang Xing stood up and said: "Anyway, everything has been told to you, we will come here to borrow your kitchen, whether to borrow or not to lend you a word." Shabo smiled helplessly: "You have said so, can I not borrow it." Yang Xing smiled reluctantly, glanced at Xiao Fei, the two of them no longer hesitated, Xiao Fei picked up the shoebox, and Yang Xing went out to the kitchen. Each teacher's dormitory is equipped with a small kitchen, about five or six square meters, Yang Xing Xiaofei has been here a lot, and she is already familiar with the road. Shabo was faintly worried in his heart, not knowing what the hell these two children were going to do, so he followed behind them.

At the door of the kitchen, he saw Yang Xing holding a bright knife in his hand, and slowly walked towards the shoebox. His demeanor changed at this moment, as if the moment he held the knife, those lost spiritual qi returned to his body. He became energetic and radiant. The hand in which he held the knife was bruised, and it was evident that he had used all his strength. He walked slowly towards the shoebox, one last greedy expression on his face.

Sha Bo was surprised by Yang Xing's change at this moment, only to feel a chill slowly rising in his heart.

Yang Xing over there had already lifted the lid of the shoebox, and the knife in his right hand was raised high at the same time.

At noon, Shabo Xiaofei and Yang Xing had dinner at the Three Gorges Restaurant next to Hualian Square. Shabo likes to eat spicy, and the owner of the Three Gorges Hotel called Sichuan, and every dish he made was in line with Sabo's taste. Sha Bo and Xiao Fei ate with their chopsticks in their hands, and their mouths didn't stop. Yang Xing, who was opposite them, looked at them pitifully with his chin in his hands.

Yang Xing's stomach "growled" twice, and Sha Bo felt a subconscious pleasure in his heart, and the sound of chewing food was louder. Yang Xing over there rolled his eyes and protested loudly: "Lao Sha, if you want to do this again, I will do it on purpose." Shabo ignored him and ate more happily.

Xiaofei felt a little sorry for Yang Xing, put down her chopsticks and sighed: "Yang Xing, your illness is really weird, you can't eat by yourself, don't add new problems, it's disgusting to watch others eat." Sha Bo wanted to laugh, but seeing that Yang Xing and Xiaofei had frozen their little faces, he swallowed the smile back and said, "Yang Xing, don't be sad, stay for a while and wait for us to finish eating, accompany you to the vegetable market, see if there is anything to your taste, let's buy it back, and I will lend you another time in the kitchen." At the mention of the kitchen, Shabo was disgusted.

The kitchen has been cleaned now, and not a single hair remains. Those bones and hairs were all packed into a black plastic bag by Xiaofei and thrown into the trash bin downstairs. While eating, Sabo suddenly remembered the knife and decided that he would definitely throw it away when he went back. Because that knife was once in Yang Xing's hand, he cut off the head of a Jinba dog without hesitation.

Yang Xing's technique of cutting off the dog's head was neat, and he picked up the dog with his left hand and slammed it to the ground. The dog lay straight on the ground, its body spread out, and twitched slightly. At this moment, Yang Xing's hand raised and fell, and the blade accurately landed on the dog's neck, a pillar of blood splashed, and the dog's head rolled to the side.

It was a beautiful Kimba dog, snow-white, without a single stray hair. The dog's face is covered with white fur, and the lips are black and shiny, and it looks particularly simple and cute. Now the dog's body was still twitching, and bright red blood was gushing out of the broken part of the neck, and the blood soon stained the white dog hair on its body.

Xiao Fei had already hid behind Sha Bo, Sha Bo frowned, and wanted to scold Yang Xing twice, but thinking about Yang Xing's demeanor when he cut off the dog's head with a knife just now, the words of scolding were in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.

Later, Sha Bo and Xiaofei were watching TV outside, and Yang Xing stayed in the kitchen alone, skinning the dog, then chopping it into pieces and boiling half a pot.

Yang Xing only took one bite of the half-pot of dog meat, and then dumped them all in the garbage bag.

Yang Xing said that the dog meat has a foul smell, and when it reaches the mouth, it is extremely disgusting. He also said that if he swallowed the dog meat, he would definitely vomit out all the intestines.

Although Sha Bo was not interested in the pot of dog meat, after listening to Yang Xing's words, he still stuck his nose in front of the garbage bag and sniffed it. No matter what kind of meat is burned, it looks pretty much the same, so Sabo's feeling of nausea isn't as strong as it started out. That pot of dog meat Yang Xing put a lot of ingredients, as well as thirteen incense, so it smelled very good. Without the smell that Yang Xing said, Sha Bo thought that Yang Xing was a patient, and the feeling of a patient must be different from that of a normal person.

Later, the three of them sat in the Three Gorges Restaurant.

Sha Bo asked Yang Xing and Xiaofei how they planned to spend this holiday, and after the two looked at each other, they did not speak, but below, their hands were held together.

Xiaofei said: "Yang Xing is like this now, can I bear to leave him?" And Yang Xing thought about it and said three words: "Find something to eat." "Where can I find something to eat? The point, Shabo thought, is that now you don't know what you want to eat. When he thought like this, he suddenly felt a chill in his heart. He thought that he was now facing a person who didn't want to eat anything, didn't want to eat anything, so what did the world mean to him?

Sha Bo shuddered a little, Xiao Fei opposite him looked dazed, and Yang Xing still had a soft and pitiful expression. Yang Xing was already fainting from hunger, and it was now his fourth day, and he could only drink a little water every day. Even if he drank water, he could only drink a small amount.

At this time, there was only one thought in his mind - where to find something to eat?
