Chen Ran

When the firefighters told me that the county had been hit by a magnitude 8 earthquake, my mind was blank for many seconds, and the blank space was so strange and long, as if I had come to a barren planet without color, my eyes and heart were incapacitated, and my body was like a walking corpse with only a shell. Such a void has only appeared once in my short life memory, just now, when Yue'er was trapped in the elevator at the moment of the earthquake; And when we finally landed safely, I thought that such a void would never appear in my life again, or rather, I would never allow such a void to appear again. However, less than three hours later, it once again whizzed through the world in front of it without warning.

At first, it was a dazzling light, and then like a galaxy splashed from the sky, it fell to the ground and flew away, first slowly spreading, gradually accelerating, accelerating, with a bang, the stars shattered, the silver light splashed, and then I couldn't see anything clearly, and my body turned into a very light and unsupported white feather in an instant, and I only heard a voice floating back and forth in my ears like a ghost-Chen Ran, you see, this is your fate, your catastrophe......

The pores of my whole body suddenly shrank, and I grabbed the fireman's arm in the bitter chill like an ice cellar, "What did you say?" There was a dead ash of disbelief in his empty eyes, "County? Is it the county that is more than 100 kilometers away from City C? Earthquake? Level 8?! ”

"Yes!" The man replied quickly without looking back, "There has never been such a strong earthquake, the Tangshan earthquake is only 7.8 magnitude, the epicenter is in the county, the depth is only 14 kilometers, now the communication is completely cut off, nothing can be contacted, and I don't know the specific situation over there, but C City is shaking so hard, there must be heavy casualties over there...... "After speaking, he ignored me and quickly threw himself into a new rescue mission."

I couldn't hear the words clearly, but I felt my ears buzzing, and as far as I could see, the streets were full of dense people, shouting and running with their faces full of sorrow and fear, and countless people picked up their mobile phones and put them down, calling their relatives and friends over and over again in vain; The yellow sand filled the sky, the air was filled with uncertain anxiety of life and death, the horns of cars, and the shouts of the crowd one after another...... I held up my phone, but I couldn't find anyone, the screen was dead silent, the gray interface reflected my despair and despair, I felt like I was on an island, isolated from the world, or rather, isolated from the world.

Only the TVs and radios in the shops in the roadside shopping malls are scrolling to broadcast the news that makes the people mourn - "At 10:08:04 a.m. on August 12, 20**, Beijing time, a massive earthquake of magnitude 8.0 on the Richter scale occurred in S Province and County, with the epicenter at the junction of Lianhua Town and Zixiu Town in the county, with an east longitude of 103 ° 42 and a north latitude of 31 ° 01, with an epicenter depth of 10~20 kilometers and a duration of about 2 minutes...... The tremors were felt in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, the Philippines, Japan and other places...... The CPC Central Committee and the Central Military Commission have ordered the rapid launch of earthquake relief work...... As of press time, the provincial military district has dispatched 6,100 rescue personnel from all directions, and many troops are on their way...... The Military Region of City C sent a front-line command post led by the deputy commander to the vicinity of County J, which was blocked due to road damage and is currently in the process of emergency rescue and dredging......"

And at this moment, I am already petrified, and I dare not imagine......

"Chen Ran, what's wrong with you? Yes? Yue'er dragged my body, looked at me, and raised her voice sharply, "Chen Ran, don't scare me, you look at my eyes, what's wrong with you?!" ”

I thought my face should be frighteningly white, and I just let Yue'er pull me in a daze, I slowly turned my head, and there was only a dead ash left in my eyes, "Xiaojuan, she is in the county now"

"What do you say? Sister Xiaojuan, she

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

In the county?! Yue'er's eyes widened in disbelief, "Why is she in the county?" Isn't she in H City? How did you get over there? ……”

"Didn't I tell you before that she would go through the formalities with me when she came back from a business trip?" There was a hoarse bitterness in my voice, "The place where she went on a business trip was the county"

Yue'er was stunned for a moment, I saw the light and shadow in her beautiful pupils, and the Qiming who had just escaped death was completely lost, she grabbed my hand suddenly, but it was the same cold as me, "Chen Ran, Sister Xiaojuan, it shouldn't be okay, right?" In her tone, there was a suspicion that she herself knowingly asked.

The phone rang at this moment, and I was shocked, like a life-saving straw, and before I could speak, I heard the cry of the head rushing to the sky, "Chen Ran, Chen Ran!" Is that you?! Are you alright?! Are you okay? Xiaojuan, Xiaojuan is in the county, what should I do, Chen Ran, I can't contact her, I can't contact her! Why is my wife so miserable, her husband is gone, and her daughter's life and death are uncertain now, Chen Ran, can you contact Xiaojuan? Yes? Chen Ran, Mom can't stand it anymore, what should Mom do......"

"Mom! Mother! Don't cry first......" Xiaojuan's mother's voice was poignant and painful, reminding me of the day my father-in-law left, it was also such a heart-rending mourning, faintly feeling ominous, my heart sank, and there was no composure at that time, I only felt that my heart was like numbness, such a natural disaster was no less than a crazy life, in front of the power of nature, any person seemed too small, I didn't know how to open my mouth to comfort an old man who was in aggrieved circumstances, "Mom, don't worry, now that the phone is finally connected, I will contact Xiaojuan immediately, And her unit, I'll call you as soon as there is news."

"Okay, good, Chen Ran," the mother whimpered and couldn't speak, "It's good that you're okay, Chen Ran, you're okay, fortunately, fortunately, fortunately ......"

New calls kept coming in from my phone, and I looked at the little battery I had left, and hurriedly interrupted my mother, "Mom, I'm fine, don't worry." Now there are a lot of calls coming in, and I have to contact other people immediately, so I will hang up first, you must take care of your body, I will let my parents go over to accompany you. ”

My mother promised to hang up, and I immediately picked up the new phone, but it was my parents, and I said loudly, "Mom and Dad, I'm fine, the earthquake magnitude in City C is not big, we are outside now, it's safe, rest assured, rest assured." He hesitated, "Dad, Xiaojuan is in the county now, and there is the epicenter over there, and the situation is not very good...... Well, now I can't get in there, and the troops can't seem to drive in, and the roads are blocked...... Well, I'll keep in touch with Xiaojuan, and I'll call you as soon as I have any news. Dad, you and Mom should go to the house to accompany Xiaojuan's mother now, she is in a very bad spirit, and she has hit too much......"

After talking to my father, I immediately called Xiaojuan's phone, but the voice remained unchanged for a long time - "The user you dialed is temporarily unreachable", "The user you dialed is temporarily unreachable...... It seems to be a number that never existed, even if a few days ago it was connected to a living life, today, at this moment, there is only a string of cold numbers......

"Chen Ran, I just talked to my father on the phone, he is fine, the train encountered an earthquake as soon as it left the station, and now it is still parked on the railway, fortunately, people are safe." Yue'er put down the phone in her hand and looked at me worriedly, "Sister Xiaojuan, can't you get in touch?" ”

I nodded uneasily, waved my hand at her, and immediately dialed the phone number of Xiaojuan's unit, "Hello Song, I'm Chen Ran...... Well, Xiaojuan, she's still in the county, right? County Health Department? Is it a building over there? …… 5 floors? No elevator? My brow furrowed, my heart was a little more ominous, and I gritted my teeth, "...... Hmm, is there any news now...... Not yet? …… Oh, you're considering sending people into the county with the medical team? …… Okay, okay, I'll go too, I'll wait for your news in City C...... Well, just make this call, and I'll be there as soon as you arrive

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I'll go with you right now......"

"How is it, Chen Ran, are you calling Sister Xiaojuan's unit?" Yue'er saw me put down the phone and hurriedly asked, "What did you say?" Where are you going? ”

The smoke and dust in the sky gradually dissipated, but the sky and the earth were still obscure, the sun had long been hidden, leaving only the white afterglow reflecting the helplessness of human beings under the disaster, and the sound of police cars and ambulances whistling by from time to time, always reminded me of the gloom and horror of the morgue. I saw people's faces covered with tears and sweat, dust, mud, blood, scars, more or less appeared on everyone's body, in the face of life and death, the individual is so fragile that only a little accident can ruin the family, this is the insignificance and powerlessness of human beings, this is the impermanence and helplessness of the world. Now, in the face of this woman who is about to break up but is still nominally my wife, whose life and death are unknown in the closest place to me, I know that I must find her, this is my responsibility, my morality, my minimum instinct and duty as a human being.

Looking at Yue'er's anxious and worried look at this moment, I couldn't help but feel a sour corner of my eyes, I took a deep breath, put my hands on Yue'er's shoulders, and said slowly, "Yue'er, I may have to go to the county."

"Huh?! Why? Yue'er raised her head suddenly, her eyes widened and she looked at me in disbelief, "You, are you going to find Sister Xiaojuan?" Seeing that I didn't answer, she was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly shook her head vigorously, dragged my arm and said, "No, no, Chen Ran, it's too dangerous, it's too dangerous, Chen Ran, this is a magnitude 8 earthquake, it's not as simple as being trapped in an elevator, it's too dangerous...... You can't go, you can't go......" Her tears rolled out, only hanging on my clothes and crying, "Chen Ran, it's not that I don't want you to save Sister Xiaojuan, but you are not a superman, and you are not trained, how can you have the experience of saving people, natural disasters are ruthless, the troops can't drive in, how many ways can you do if you are unarmed, do you think you will be as lucky as just now every time?" That's the epicenter, Chen Ran, didn't you listen to the news, there will be countless aftershocks in the future, in case, in case you have three long and two short, what should I do, Chen Ran, I don't want you to leave me, don't ...... Even if I beg you, okay or not, I beg you, promise me...... Don't go ......"

"Yue'er, Yue'er, listen to me," I pressed her shoulder, my eyes firmly locked on her face, "Xiaojuan's unit will specially send people to enter the county with the medical team, I am with them, not alone. And we will definitely work with the troops at that time, we will not act alone, we will definitely ensure our own safety first, you can rest assured, there is no big problem. I picked up her face, straightened her messy hair, and imprinted a kiss on her eyebrows, "Yue'er, I love you, nothing can change this fact." After a pause, I continued, "But right now, in the face of such a disaster, Xiaojuan's life and death are unknown, and the place where she happened is so close to me, even from the perspective of a friend, I have to go through this experience, do you understand?" ”

"I understand, Chen Ran" Yue'er was still choked up, "but I'm really worried, scared, I'm afraid ......"

I gently covered her mouth with my hand, "Don't be afraid, Yue'er, you have to believe me." I know I'm not Superman, it's useless to rely on Gu Yong at this time, I just want to get the news of Xiaojuan as soon as possible, her mother, my parents, all relatives and friends, they are all thousands of miles away now, and the only one who can count on me is me, so, no matter what, I have to do something, do you understand? I sighed and hugged Yue'er into my arms, "Yue'er, I promise, I will come back safely, I promise" After a pause, I whispered in her ear, "When I come back, we will go to get the certificate, okay?" ”

Yue'er couldn't hold back crying loudly in my arms anymore, she hugged me tightly, hugged me so tightly, as if I was going to disappear from her eyes in the next second, only nodded desperately, and couldn't say a word.
