Chapter 64: Doomsday

"Xiao Xia, get up, let's ...... Let's go home and see! ”

Pang Xuelin pulled Yao Bingxia up from the ground, and the two staggered towards the community.

The surrounding area was already a mess, the survivors were standing on the streets in despair, and there were also the injured who were hit by the falling building fragments, lying on the ground wailing, and in many collapsed buildings, the cries and cries of the buried people could be faintly heard.

Pang Xuelin and Yao Bingxia stumbled to the community where their grandparents lived, and the smoke and dust that shrouded the community gradually dissipated, and all that appeared in front of them was the ruins left behind by a landslide.

This community is built at the foot of the Jade Emperor Mountain, and has always been known for its pleasant scenery and quiet environment, but now, this has become the most fatal flaw.

In the earthquake, most of the Yuhuang Mountain collapsed, and the entire community was completely buried by the landslide.

"Grandpa, Grandma......"

Yao Bingxia fell to her knees weakly and let out a grief-stricken whimper.

Pang Xuelin froze in place, tears streaming down his cheeks, although he knew that this was just a plane adventure, his grandparents were still living well in the real world.

But he still felt the bone-eating pain of losing a loved one.

For a few months, Grandpa's respectful teachings were still in my ears, and Grandma's kind smile seemed to be visible in front of my eyes.

But in this world, they will never be seen again.

Pang Xuelin turned his gaze to the west, and the huge Jiangcheng No. 1 planetary engine stood majestically, and this unprecedented earthquake could not cause the slightest damage to this behemoth.

Boom Boom –

At this time, there was a loud sound like thunder faintly in the distance, but this loud noise no longer lasted for a short time like the previous earthquake, but continued endlessly, and even had a tendency to become bigger and bigger.

Immediately afterward, the ground began to shake.

"Little ...... Brother Xiaolin, look at ...... over there."

Pang Xuelin followed Yao Bingxia's finger and looked east, and a kilometer away, a wall of water tens of meters high passed through the center of the city and rushed towards them.

The high-rise buildings that were already crumbling in the earthquake collapsed and collapsed like dominoes after being destroyed by the water wall.

Vehicles and pedestrians on the road are constantly swallowed by the waves like toys.

Waves of water are rapidly engulfing the city as they sweep through the streets and walls.

"Shhh

Pang Xuelin gasped.

Even in a sci-fi disaster blockbuster, he had never seen such a scene.

"Brother Xiaolin, I'm afraid!"

Yao Bingxia subconsciously hugged Pang Xuelin's arm, with a look of despair in her eyes!

"Xiao Xia, don't be afraid, we'll be fine!"

Pang Xuelin came back to his senses, quickly took off his backpack, took out the life-saving airbag tank from the bag, and pressed the switch.

Bang.

A spherical airbag instantly popped out in front of the two of them.

"What is this?"

Yao Bingxia was surprised.

"The life-saving air bag I got from the lab, Xiao Xia, hurry in!"

Pang Xuelin helped save the air sac, let Yao Bingxia get in, and then followed him in.

Subsequently, Pang Xuelin straightened the life-saving air sac and lay at the bottom of the life-saving air bag with Yao Bingxia.

"Xiao Xia, hold me tight!"

Yao Bingxia buried her head in Pang Xuelin's arms, trembling all over.

Through the transparent graphene material, Pang Xuelin stared at the roaring waves.

Boom –

The rescue air sac was quickly submerged by the torrent, and then was rushed high by the huge waves, and the two seemed to be on a roller coaster, thrown into the air by the huge waves for a while, and then fell to the bottom.

"Ahh

Yao Bingxia let out a frightened cry.

The life-saving air bag followed this huge flow of water through the entire river city, and everywhere the water flowed, it was indestructible and pervasive.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound of the water and the roar gradually dissipated, and everything around me gradually became calmer.

Pang Xuelin opened his eyes and looked around.

The water is as smooth as a mirror, and only the remains of buildings partially protruding from the water seem to be a reminder of the city's former glory.

In the distance, the water and sky are colorful, and the dark red sun is reflected on the water, sparkling.

Pang Xuelin and Yao Bingxia have been swept far away by the current, and the originally majestic planetary engine has become a small hill, but it still stands proudly.

Pang Xuelin breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, Pang Xuelin felt the figure in his arms move, Pang Xuelin let go of his arms, Yao Bingxia slowly straightened up and looked around.

"Brother Xiaolin, we ...... Are we safe? ”

Pang Xuelin said: "It should be safe, let's wait patiently for rescue!" ”

"Oh!"

Yao Bingxia straightened up, sat on her knees, her eyes were red, she let out a low sob, and said, "But grandpa and grandma are gone......

Pang Xuelin sighed and said: "Xiao Xia, now is not the time to be sad, we have to find a way to make the life-saving air bag drift to the planetary engine, otherwise if no one comes to us, we will either starve to death or die of thirst......"

"Die of thirst?"

Yao Bingxia was slightly stunned, looked around, and seemed to say, aren't these water?

Pang Xuelin smiled bitterly: "These should be seawater poured into the city, and there is no way to drink it!" ”

"That'...... So what do we do? ”

"Come, let's stand in the airbag and walk forward, control the airbag to float in the direction of the planetary engine."

"Oh, good!"

Yao Bingxia followed Pang Xuelin's instructions and stood up in the air-saving bag.

Then, the two began to walk slowly forward like playing water walking ball in the park, stepping on a life-saving air bag.

Yao Bingxia is small and frail, coupled with the fact that the life-saving air bag is floating on the water, the center of gravity is unstable, and it takes more physical strength.

After just over an hour of pedaling, she ran out of energy.

Pang Xuelin let her lie down in the life-saving air bag to rest, while he continued to grit his teeth and insist.

He is very grateful for the arduous journey of the Martian world, otherwise he would not have had such willpower in the past.

But even so, after stepping on it for several hours in a row, Pang Xuelin couldn't bear it anymore, feeling as if his legs were filled with lead, and he was so tired that he didn't want to move as soon as he lay down.

However, the distance between the airbag and the planetary engine does not seem to have changed.

During this period, Yao Bingxia felt a little more strength in his body, so he would stand up and help Pang Xuelin tread water together, until he couldn't stand it anymore, he would lie down and rest.

Eventually, both of them were too tired to do so, so they lay down and went to sleep.

When Pang Xuelin woke up from his sleep, he realized that this way of treading water was not feasible.

The rescue air bag was too far away from the planetary engine, and the expected rescue never came, and there was not enough food and fresh water to replenish it, so the two could not hold out for long.

So next, Pang Xuelin asked Yao Bingxia to minimize exercise and reduce calorie and water loss.

For a whole day, the two of them did nothing.

Rescue still didn't wait.

Drowsiness came, and the two fell into a deep sleep again.

Fortunately, after waking up, Pang Xuelin found that there was a light rain in the sky, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly aimed the entrance of the life-saving air bag at the sky.

Without food, the two of them could hold on for seven or eight days, but without fresh water, the two of them couldn't hold on for even three days.

Soon, the rain created a small puddle at the bottom of the life sac.

Pang Xuelin and Yao Bingxia drank the fresh water in the puddle hungrily, and after a long time, until the puddle completely disappeared, the two of them breathed a long sigh of relief and lay weakly at the bottom of the life-saving air bag.
