Chapter 461: The Hardest Hour
On the way back, there was another earthquake!
The intensity of this earthquake was seven or eight magnitude, the whole ground was shaking violently, and the crowd scattered in horror to avoid it, screaming one after another. "Le" Wen "Xiao" said|
Luo Yuan's feet took root, his body was motionless, the stone powder falling on his head and the cracks that kept appearing, his face was solemn!
After the detonation of the self-destructive antimatter bomb, coupled with the far away orbit of the moon, the earth's plate officially entered a turbulent period, volcanoes are frequent, earthquakes have become commonplace, almost several times a day, the small ones are imperceptible, and the large ones are five or six magnitudes, but this is the first time after the disaster.
The interval between each floor of the dungeon is quite thick, seven or eight meters thick, and it is extremely earthquake-resistant, but it can't help but shake so frequently, not to mention the frequent earthquakes after the disaster, so that the structure here has become a little loose, and cracks can be seen everywhere between the compartments.
Twenty seconds after the earthquake appeared, the collapse finally happened, and with a muffled sound from nowhere, the dungeon collapsed.
Fortunately, the earthquake quickly subsided, and no other disasters occurred except for the sound of the collapse
Luo Yuan's face was ugly, he didn't dare to delay, and hurried to the city government to organize disaster relief work.
The collapse occurred in the partition between the fifth and sixth layers, and a whole rock layer of hundreds of thousands of square meters collapsed completely, but fortunately, the next layer of the partition was strong enough and was not crushed by the falling rock layer, resulting in a chain effect.
In the layout of Hope City's underground city, where floors 1 to 5 are warehouses, floors 6 to 10 are residential areas and lightly polluted industrial areas, and 11 to 13 are agricultural areas, the earthquake collapsed, in addition to two factories that had been shut down and buried in the rubble, a large area of nearby residential areas also suffered unwarranted disasters.
Fortunately, during this time, most of the residents have been organized and mobilized, either in the warehouse area, or have entered the factory, and the number of people left at home is either the elderly or children, the number is very small, but the area that cannot withstand the disaster is huge, and finally the rough statistics show that the death toll is close to thousands, and under the weight of this seven or eight meters thick rock formation, there are almost no survivors!
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and a series of bad news made Luo Yuan very busy, and the original idea of meeting Chen Xinjie in the afternoon was also dispelled.
A large number of people were urgently organized to fight the disaster, but the relief was only secondary, and the most important thing was to strengthen the underground structure as soon as possible to prevent the collapse from happening again.
Although in the near future, all the humans in Hope City will move into the spaceship in the future, but the relocation will not happen overnight, at least during the time of staying here, to ensure the stability of the underground layer.
With the current turbulence of the Earth's tectonic plates, such an earthquake will never be the last.
Throughout the afternoon, Luo Yuan and several geologists went around to check the weak points of each layer of rock.
The innate ability of earth pulsation allows Luo Yuan to sense possible hidden dangers through the frequency difference on the ground.
Subsequently, a huge stock of reinforced concrete was called in, and hundreds of thousands of workers rushed everywhere to build a large number of support columns and urgently reinforce the underground city to cope with the next earthquake.
……
At nine o'clock in the evening, Deputy Mayor Tian Jinping, who came to report, finally gave Luo Yuan a good news.
"Mayor, after the emergency work of the factory, up to now, the number of electric blankets produced has reached 500,000, and if you wait until 12 o'clock, it is estimated that it can reach 650,000." Deputy Mayor Tian Jinping said cautiously, with a feeling of apprehension in his heart, his voice was hoarse, as if he had been smoked.
Compared with the 80,000 articles mentioned earlier, the entire number has increased sixfold, but it is still a little less, but looking at the other party's bloodshot eyes and mouth full of bubbles, he has obviously tried his best: "Very well done, let's divide it first!" ”
"Mayor, I'll get busy first!" In the face of Luo Yuan's exaggeration, Deputy Mayor Tian Jinping was a little flattered, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and hurriedly said.
He turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Luo Yuan again, he thought for a while and said: "Wait, the free distribution is still a little inappropriate, not to suffer from the lack of wealth but to suffer from unevenness, it is easy to cause public anger at that time, or use the way of paid limited purchase, use the broadcasting system to notify it, one per household, the price can be cheaper!" ”
"Mayor, it's really far-sighted!" Tian Jinping complimented.
Luo Yuanshu laughed: "Another notice, hold on for one more night, and everyone can take turns to rest tomorrow!" ”
Now, all government workers have not rested for days and nights, and if this continues, people will fall.
Tian Jinping soon left, and the office was quiet again.
Luo Yuan rubbed his eyebrows, stood up, and walked back and forth in the office, as long as tomorrow passes, the most difficult moment in Hope City will be over, and the problem of food and clothing will be solved, and most of the problems in Hope City will be solved.
……
Fortunately, the next day, there was no freezing to death.
Human beings are subjective beings, and even if they don't have electric blankets, they can use fires to keep warm, and they can also wear all the clothes they can wear.
But after today, with the production of more and more cold-proof products such as electric blankets, the people will undoubtedly be much better tonight.
The grim situation has been greatly alleviated, Luo Yuan also breathed a sigh of relief, walked out of the office, he hadn't been home for several days, and he planned to go home today.
"Mayor!"
"Mayor!"
……
In the city hall, people come and go, and it is a busy scene.
On the road, people bumped into Luo Yuan from time to time, and they greeted him excitedly.
In the past few days, Luo Yuan's daily example has allowed him to accumulate huge prestige, especially his great exploits in saving mankind in the propaganda, which has added a huge aura to him.
Even though many people are already exhausted, they are still excited when they see Luo Yuan.
It's a great prestige, and it's only in times of human hardship!
Luo Yuan walked to the hall and suddenly stopped, and everyone immediately stood up subconsciously.
Looking at these worshipping staff members looking at him, Luo Yuan felt something: "Everyone, we have worked hard recently, we have survived tenaciously under the attack of aliens, this is not my credit, but also everyone's, now the most difficult moment has passed, we will get better and better in the future, and now those who take turns to rest can go to rest temporarily." ”
He waved his hand to the office director, who had walked out of the room because of the loud movement, and said, "Tell the canteen to make breakfast hearty, if you don't have high-grade meat noodles, you can ask me!" ”
"Yes...... Yes, I'll arrange it right away. The director of the office hurriedly said.
Luo Yuan nodded and walked out of the city government building.
The bright lights illuminated the entire dungeon as bright as day, Luo Yuan saw that the LED energy-saving lights in some streets had been replaced with heating lights, and the endless energy produced by the nuclear fusion furnace of the Boxing people made Hope City completely useless to save energy.
Near the street where the heating lights are installed, Luo Yuan can clearly feel that the temperature is rising.
Unfortunately, the production of heating lamps is limited in quantities, and priority is given to agricultural areas, and only one or two streets have been installed so far, and it will take time to replace them all.
After a while, Luo Yuan returned home.
Master Wang's eyes were sharp, and as soon as he saw Luo Yuan, he exclaimed in surprise: "Brother Luo is back!" ”
Immediately rushed over, the whole person hung around Luo Yuan's neck, among several women, Wang Shishi was the most tired, he smiled and patted her slender back: "Okay, come down." ”
Master Wang kissed him and jumped off his body, his eyes watery, as if he couldn't see enough.
Several women were also happy, but they were much more subtle.
"Have you eaten?" Huang Jiahui said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, she was wearing a beige fur coat, which made her look a few years younger, and she had a kind of demure taste like water.
The warm clothes that have recently been produced in this garment, made of mutant animal fur, are of a high grade, basically above level five, and were used in the manufacture of airships in the past, piled up in warehouses, and now all of them are used to produce warm clothing, but it is also because of the high grade and tough leather, so the production efficiency is extremely low, and the number is still scarce.
These clothes are basically distributed to the scientific researchers who still remain in Hope City, and even the senior public officials, in order to avoid affecting their image, they are not assigned one, and they can wear them, obviously someone has made their own decisions.
However, Luo Yuan is not a pedantic person, facing the high and stepping on the low, this is all human nature, and it will not change for the sake of social change.
"No, how are you doing at home lately?" Luo Yuan looked at the villa, and a rockery in the living room was already missing, apparently broken in yesterday's earthquake.
"It's all good, your work is important, you don't have to worry about your family." Huang Jiahui is very knowledgeable.
"I heard we're moving to a spaceship?" Zhao Yali asked.
"It's one thing, but it's going to be a while, and now that the ship is being refitted, we may have to leave Earth by then." Luo Yuan said, and couldn't help but glance at Zhao Yali, she was wearing a pure cyan fur coat, which lined her skin as smooth as water, and looked even more delicate and weak.
Ye Qiuyu next to her was shocked in her heart, and couldn't help screaming softly, and when she came back to her senses, her face couldn't help but turn red with embarrassment, but fortunately, everyone was shocked by this amazing news, but no one paid attention to her.
"Good guy, why do you want to leave Earth?" Wang Xiaguang asked.
Luo Yuan sighed, and then explained the reason, everyone couldn't help but feel heavy in their hearts when they heard it, since the end of the world, human beings have begun to suffer many disasters, and now even the earth has to give up.
"Okay, don't think about these unhappy things, the bridge to the bow of the ship is naturally straight, and there will always be a glimmer of life for human beings!" Immediately, Luo Yuan asked Ye Qiuyu about Chen Jiayi's situation: "How has Chen Jiayi recovered recently?" ”
Seeing Luo Yuan looking at him, Ye Qiuyu was nervous, and said a little helplessly: "The city ...... Mayor, her situation is improving, and now that she is called by name, she has already reacted a little, no...... However, it will take a little time. ”
Luo Yuan nodded silently, he knew that his pressure on ordinary people was not only the pressure of momentum, but also the psychological pressure, even if he restrained his whole body breath, it still gave people a huge sense of oppression, which was difficult to avoid even a few members of the Standing Committee of the municipal government, and the only people who were close to him were not affected.
Then he stood up and said, "I'll go and see!" ”
He walked into Chen Jiayi's room, sat down on the chair in front of the bed, and several women also walked in, and the mutant who was already a little unfamiliar with Luo Yuan hesitated for a moment, and also joined in the fun.
Chen Jiayi lay quietly on the bed, looking ruddy and breathing evenly, as if she was asleep.
Luo Yuan was silent for a while, and seemed to call: "Jiayi, wake up, you can get up." ”
As if hearing a voice, her eyes kept rolling, but as if she was in a dream, she couldn't open her eyes.
"There's something wrong with her nervous system, she reacts to the outside world, and she seems to be able to hear us, but she can't move." Ye Qiuyu said cautiously beside him, his fingers kept stirring the corners of his clothes.
Luo Yuan's heart was heavy, he naturally knew what the reason was, this phenomenon was the result of being infected by his will, and the will imprint of the body itself was expelled, resulting in a disorder of the nervous system.
Luo Yuan saw her fingers moving slightly, and couldn't help but grab her little hand.
The fingers were weak and weak, without a trace of strength feedback, and suddenly, her little hand clenched slightly, and then the strength became greater and greater, and her little face was a little red.
"Jiayi, wake up!" Luo Yuan saw that she was showing signs of awakening, and couldn't help but be happy in his heart, and hurriedly called again.
Unfortunately, after only a few seconds, her hand was loosened, and she could no longer hold on, and in just a few seconds, it seemed that all her strength had been exhausted, and then, her eyelids twitched, and two lines of tears slid down her cheeks.
Several of the women were a little sad, and their eyes were slightly red.
Only Ye Qiuyu and Chen Jiayi don't know each other, but the relationship between a simple patient and a doctor doesn't have this feeling.
She glanced at Luo Yuan unexpectedly, she had carried out routine recovery treatment for Chen Jiayi half an hour ago, and she didn't react so much at that time, she suddenly remembered that there were so many women here, and the beautiful mutant who was neither human nor beast, and she suddenly felt that her feet were a little weak.
During this time, because Luo Yuan was often absent and so many things had happened before, she had long forgotten that she was ready to feed the tiger before she came.
In fact, if she only talked about appearance, she naturally had nothing to dislike Luo Yuan.
His skin is smooth and delicate, his whole body is flawless, his figure is erect, he is extraordinarily handsome, and he also has a mysterious temperament in him that is enough to attract any woman.
Although the figure used to be strong, it was barely acceptable.
Evolved to the extent of Luo Yuan, he has already undergone all-round transformation, without any genetic defects that ordinary people have, even if he had it before, he can repair himself.
However, when she thought of Luo Yuan's terrifying strength, and when she heard Master Wang show off not long ago, he told her about the fact that he turned the rice cooker into a red iron ball, she only had endless fear, and she would really die when the time came, I really don't know how those women endured it.
Luo Yuan felt something strange behind her, and glanced at Ye Qiuyu in surprise, so frightened that her face turned pale, she shook her body, and almost fainted to the ground.
