Chapter 10 Entering the Barren Mountain
There was a tingling pain in my body, and I couldn't help but close my eyes and shrink back, and turned away slightly.
"Okay-" Jin Bi wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, let out a long sigh of relief, and then neatly bandaged Mo Yunxia's elbow. "It's good that you're in good health, it's just a dislocation. I'll help you straighten your bones first, and then go back to school and ask the school doctor to prescribe some medicine, and you'll be fine. ”
"Thank you, thanks to you." Mo Yunxia nodded sincerely to Jin Bi, who was a little shy, smiled freshly, and got up to check the little gift that had just treated the wound. I immediately sat down in her position and handed Mo Yunxia a glass of water. He seemed to collapse a little, just winked at me in thanks, and then took the glass with his intact hand and drank it down.
"You're so stupid, how can you block an iron box that fell from such a high place with your hands?" I took the empty cup and stared at his elbows, which were tightly wrapped in tight bandages, and felt indescribably guilty. "Luckily, the injury wasn't too serious. If you really break your tendon and break it, you really don't know what to do. ”
"I've always been lucky. What's more, isn't it worth exchanging my hand for your head? Mo Yunxia smiled a little slyly, I can't count how many times this is the first time to see his smile and not blush. A little frustrated, he turned his back and pretended to be looking at Zhuo Ying and Chu He, who were checking the damage to the car. Xiao Li lay on another large rock not far from us, with a large piece of gauze wrapped around her head. I don't know if I was too badly injured or crying too hard, and I kept yelling and dizzy. Shui Qing and Jin Bi are both soft and hard, and they do everything they can to persuade him to cheer up.
I looked around—we seemed to have entered the heart of the wooded area on the outskirts, with withered grass and yellow grass in the distance, open plains, and low mountains stretching in the distance.
I looked back at the road, and it was a jagged forest of cedar trees, which looked a little eerie in the afterglow of an autumn evening. The trees are getting shorter and shorter from near to far, it turns out that we are already halfway up a certain mountain in the mountains, I really don't know how Chu He drove the car here, driving in this kind of uncivilized wild mountain, anyone will have an accident sooner or later, and the time will only be earlier than him.
"Let's go check it out." I looked back and saw that Mo Yunxia had already gotten up. He nudged my waist with his right hand, which was not hoisted, and I followed him towards the Chu River.
Although I was a little embarrassed, I had to think that he was also my savior, and it was really bad to be too distant in such a small matter. Chu He saw us approaching, but he didn't bother to make jokes. He had already taken off his coat, and his sweaty sweater was covered with black dirt, and he threw away the wrench and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hands, and where his fingers slipped were three black stains.
"I can't do it, both front wheels have exploded, but there is only one spare tire." He gasped, his eyebrows twisted into a Sichuan character, and leaned on the scratched body in despair, "This big hole is estimated to have been dug by someone who came a month ago to discard the torso of the tree that was cleared, and it is full of cutting-out segments, and the tires will definitely burst if they are rolled over." They probably didn't think that someone would drive to find this place, so they just hastily laid it out and did it perfunctory. ”
"That's... How far are we from our destination? "I was full of worries, thinking that it was already raining, and I must set up a tent near the destination so that Mo Yunxia and Xiaoli have a place to rest.
"Don't worry about the destination for now, it's a big problem if we want to go back now." Zhuo Ying climbed out of the carriage and carried her bag to her chest, which contained her various precision measuring instruments. "The car broke down, and we couldn't go back ourselves. According to my records, the closest service station to us was the one off the highway, and it would take at least 40 hours to walk. ”
"No....." Shui Qing didn't know when to come over and listen nervously to everyone's conversation, "Xiaoli can't stand steadily, how can you walk with us over the mountains and mountains!" ”
"I think so, we have wounded people, not to mention, and there are too many luggage, so it's really unrealistic to walk back." I also followed Shui Qing to express my concerns, "Can you call 119 to request emergency rescue......
"Of course I've already done it, but I can't get through." Zhuo Ying looked a little anxious, she grabbed her mobile phone from her bag, "I have tried many times with Chu He and my own phone, but there is no signal here at all, it is beyond the service area. ”
I was so shocked that I took out my phone to check it almost at the same time as Shui Qing. Zhuo Ying is right, the upper left corner of all of our phones is empty at the moment, only the small desperate words "no service" are displayed. Jin Bi and Xiao Li also seemed to realize that something was wrong, and walked over with each other's arms. I checked my phone hopefully, but it turned out to be frustrating despair.
"Not just the phone, I've tried all of our devices that can transmit or receive radios, and all of them have failed." Zhuo Ying's voice was low and a little harsh, which made people upset and difficult to accept.
"Where's the radio?"
"Nope."
"What about 112?"
"No, I can't. As I have already said, there is no base station signal here at all, and no electronic message can be sent normally, do you understand! Zhuo Ying was angry, and seemed to be a little distraught and confused. But... How is this possible? ”
"It really can't be." Mo Yunxia, who had been quiet, suddenly spoke and looked at Zhuo Ying fixedly. "Now the whole world is covered with GSM, and mobile phone calls can be made as far away as Mount Everest in the Himalayas. It's just out of the city, and it's not underground, so how can it be completely isolated from the world? There are only two possibilities that can explain the problems we face. ”
"You mean......" Chu He groaned, looking at Mo Yunxia with the eyes that had been buried deep under his long wet hair. Weather? ”
"Yes, the positive and negative charges of the clouds are not enough to affect the base station signal. But in the primeval mountain forests of such remote suburbs, it can barely be regarded as an explanation. And another guess, most likely—"
"Meteorite."
Following these two words, we all looked at Zhuo Ying who answered the call. Her body didn't wave, but her pupils seemed to tremble. For no reason, a vicious chill suddenly swept over my heart, and it seemed that the air around everyone had stopped flowing......
"Unknown, miracles can be born." Mo Yunxia's speech was very slow, and it lingered lightly in his ears. "It can also create a desperate situation."
No one spoke. Indeed, it's weird. There is no logical reasoning that can explain what is happening in this wilderness. I didn't feel that when I looked at the sky, it was still a dark gray, and the large black clouds pressed low, joined together, blocking the sun. It's just an early autumn afternoon, but it seems to be late afternoon.
"But, how is it possible......" Zhuo Ying still didn't give up, and muttered with his eyebrows, "I came here a month ago, and the whole network can see the simultaneous reports of the media." The traces of their cleanup of the scene are still there, which proves that the scene they originally filmed was also here! ”
"I also drove all the way to this point on a rut, and the uphill was too steep to notice the big pothole." Chu He nodded, expressing his agreement with Zhuo Ying's thoughts, "I also checked the surroundings as soon as I parked, the grass and trees in front were dense, and no convoy passed through." ”
"So if we were in the middle of a media report, we would never have heard of them being in this situation." Zhuo Ying looked at Shui Qing and continued, "Moreover, I don't know if the rest of you have read the report sent to the group by the Information Department, the environment here ...... It seems—"
"-You found out too, didn't you!" Shui Qing's breath was a little short, as the minister and only member of the Ministry of Current Information, the video in Zhuo Ying's mouth was of course prepared by Shui Qing, "I've always wanted to say, but I never had the opportunity - the environment here is completely different from the video materials!" ”
"Different?" Jin Bi couldn't help but ask, I eased my heart slightly, maybe the video links in those groups, except for Shui Qing, who is responsible for pushing it, and Zhuo Ying, who is the president of the presidium, will not be watched by anyone else.
"Yes! What a difference! Shui Qing glanced at Jinbi, and it seemed that the difference in her mouth was obvious. I'll show you the screenshots—"
Shui Qing took out her mobile phone, and everyone gathered towards her - I saw that the picture she turned out was a screenshot of the news reported by the reporter on the spot, and the title below was "Huge meteor fragments fell in the uninhabited area on the outskirts of Li'an City", and the content was roughly a reporter standing between a dense mountain forest, describing the environment where the incident occurred. There is nothing striking about the whole picture.
"I can see it!" Xiao Li, who was next to Shui Qing, suddenly shouted excitedly, "Our location is a barren mountain, and the scene they went to is a green forest!" ”
