Chapter 18: An Unexpected Encounter

The weather changed faster than in the film, which caught Hu Ye off guard, and hurriedly went to the gas station in the service area to buy fuel. However, there were no trailers and fuel tanks at the gas station, so Hu Ye had to buy a few large oil drums to fill them with fuel and continue on the road.

Hu Ye turned on the satellite TV and followed the news related to climate change while driving. He soon discovered that while many channels were reporting on the news, it was just a normal weather situation, completely unaware that this would be the beginning of a series of catastrophes.

Hu Ye soon realized that this was a good opportunity to influence this plane. So he figured out some ways to get Professor Hall's phone number.

"Is it Professor Hall? I'm Ye Hu from the Institute for Climate Research at the University of Heidelberg. Hu Ye casually made up an identity and said very seriously: "I read your speech at the climate conference yesterday and very much agree with your theory. ”

Professor Hall said happily: "Thank you, it is rare for someone to agree with me, those bureaucrats only know money, and they don't understand that if this continues, there will be a catastrophe!" ”

Hu Yedao: "In fact, I have studied the ocean current records in the last ten years and found that the North Atlantic warm current is weakening very quickly, which can have a devastating impact on the climate of the Northern Hemisphere. For now, don't you think the climate has started to change? ”

Professor Hall was surprised, "You mean, the catastrophe is about to begin?" ”

"It's already started!" Hu Ye said solemnly: "I suggest you check the latest weather forecast, and then use a supercomputer to simulate the changes in the next few days, you will definitely be surprised!" ”

Hu Ye's reminder made Holm mouth pause, and hurriedly said to him: "I'll go now, thank you!" ”

Hu Ye hung up the phone and said to himself: "I hope it's not too late, it's good to save a few more people, and I can also get some experience points." ”

However, for Hu Ye, the most important thing at the moment is to save himself first. Although there was still not enough fuel, he decided to take shelter from the flood.

Hu Ye drove the truck along the road, and soon the whole sky was covered by heavy dark clouds, and the sky became darker and darker. Lightning shuttles through the clouds, a post-apocalyptic scene. Soon the wind mixed with the torrential rain poured down, and the vehicles on the road turned on their headlights and carefully slowed down.

Looking at the pouring rain outside the car, Hu Ye couldn't help but mutter: Has it officially begun? Looks worse than in the movies! ”

In the film, the storm causes a massive flood that even floods the whole of New York. At present, the weather changes more drastic than in the film, Hu Ye of course did not dare to be careless, and decided to go to a higher place to avoid the flood.

The map is clearly marked that as long as you follow this road for more than a hundred kilometers you enter the mountains. It's more than 500 meters above sea level, so it should be relatively safe.

However, Hu Ye soon encountered new troubles, and the road began to become congested. The bad weather slowed down the speed of the car, and in the end, the car lined up in a long line, and it was impossible to move at all.

What's worse is that this section of the road is on the seaside, not to mention the 100-meter-high flood, even a big wave can hit the car on the road.

In fact, under the action of the violent storm, the sea surface is rough, and many huge waves have washed onto the road. There are a few particularly big waves, and even the rush of the container card is slightly shaking, which is definitely not a good sign.

Seeing the long queue of vehicles in front of him, with no sign of moving forward at all, Hu Ye knew that he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately drove off the road and moved quickly on the field on the other side of the road.

In fact, the truck is not suitable for such terrain, and it is very likely that it will be stuck somewhere and cannot move forward. But Hu Ye can't take care of so much at the moment, as long as he can leave as soon as possible, it is worth taking some risks.

The bumpy terrain had a great impact on the truck, and many times Hu Ye could barely grasp the steering wheel. Fortunately, his driving skills have reached the level of Dacheng, and he can barely drive this big truck in this situation. If it had been someone else, the car would have been overturned long ago.

Hu Ye advanced more than ten kilometers in the wilderness and finally discovered the cause of the big traffic jam. There was a car accident in front, and several cars collided in a row, blocking the entire road.

At this time, Hu Ye didn't think about saving the dead, but continued to drive. As long as you bypass this point, you will be able to get back on the road and get out of this dangerous area as soon as possible.

The accident was caused by a passenger car and two cars, judging by their age, the passengers on the bus should all be students, and it seems that they are participating in some group activity.

Several students, injured and covered in blood, sat on the side of the road with the help of their peers and waited for rescue.

A young man was comforting his injured companion, and after Hu Ye saw his appearance clearly, he involuntarily stepped on the brakes, rolled down the window and asked, "Are you Sam Hall?" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "I'm Sam Hall, who are you?" ”

Hearing the other party admit that he was Sam Hall, Hu Ye couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

Sam Hall is Professor Hall's son, and according to the plot of the movie, he should now be in New York for school activities. Now that I'm in Mexico, it's changed so much.

But now is not the time to sigh, Hu Ye hurriedly said to Sam: "My name is Hu Ye, and your father is a colleague, and we just talked on the phone." Aren't you supposed to be in New York for the competition, how did you get to Mexico? ”

Seeing that Hu Ye knew his affairs so clearly, Sam also let down his guard and said: "The organizing committee has temporarily decided to change the venue of the competition, and we have just arrived here. ”

Sam Ke is one of the male protagonists of the movie, and if he can change his fate, he will definitely gain a lot of experience points.

So Hu Ye didn't hesitate at all, and immediately smiled: "It's great to meet you here, your father said that low altitude areas are not safe, you can come with me quickly!" ”

Sam hesitated, "I'm still participating in the event, so I can't go with you." ”

Hu Ye said anxiously: "Don't worry about any activities anymore, now we are talking about whether we can save our lives!" ”

Before Sam could answer, a girl came up to him and asked, "Sam, do you know each other?" ”

Sam told the girl, "He's my father's colleague and wants me to go with him right now." ”

"Sir, you have no right to take Sam." Laura looked at Hu Ye vigilantly and said, "If you insist on doing this, we will call the police!" ”

Hu Ye knew that the girl's name was Laura, Sam's classmate, and his crush, and the heroine of the movie.

Hu Ye was very happy to meet the hero and heroine of the movie at one time, and he said to Laura without thinking about it: "It's really dangerous here, you can come with me too!" ”

Hu Ye behaved so urgently that even Sam was suspicious, dragging Laura back two steps and looking at him with vigilance.

The terrible flood would come at any time, and Hu Ye didn't want to waste time here, so he was ready to force the two of them to get into the car directly with a gun.

However, at this time, Hu Ye's phone rang, and he couldn't help but laugh after he connected it.
