Chapter 12 Earthquakes
Luo Ning suddenly thought of something, and leaned on the stone wall and shouted at me: "Comrade Xiaohu, glorious bullet!" ”
The rest of the people thought at the same time, yes, we still have one grenade left, which has not been used, and it is now in the armed belt of the big man, the Chinese-made standard wooden handle grenades are waterproof, and some soldiers stationed in Qinghai Lake often use grenades to blow up fish in the lake, although everyone fell into the water just now, but the grenades should not be damp. Thanks to Luo Ning's reminder.
The big man took out a grenade: "Old Hu, catch it." "Threw it at me diagonally.
I hurriedly put the bayonet in my mouth, copied it with my right hand, caught the grenade, pushed off the safety cover with my thumb, threw away the bayonet with my mouth, bit the pull ring, and the fuse of the grenade was ignited, and white smoke came out.
I looked down at the big mouth of the overlord salamander, and threw the grenade in, where did the overlord salamander know what the grenade was, and saw the black whirring flying over, according to its usual habit of hunting, swallowed it with a long tongue, and with a muffled sound, the grenade exploded in its mouth, although the skin on the body of the overlord salamander was hard, but the skin and flesh in the mouth were very soft, and this time it blew its head from the inside out, fell to the bottom of the stone wall, and the huge body twisted a few times, and died on the rocks by the river with a white belly.
I let out a long breath, my whole body was soaked in cold sweat, and I didn't feel scared just now, but at this time, my hands and feet were weak, and I felt dizzy when I looked down.
Suddenly, the mountain wall shook violently, and the water of the underground river exploded, and the air was full of the smell of Liusu, and waves of heat rushed up from below.
The volcano under the riverbed began to move, and the crowd was caught off guard and almost fell. I hurriedly climbed a relatively gentle slope, sat down and took a few breaths, and was shocked, but I saw that the shaking of the ground was becoming more and more violent, and the mountain wall formed by volcanic rock could collapse at any time.
Luo Ning said that there is not necessarily a volcanic eruption, depending on the situation, it should only be a periodic activity of the volcano, and the time of this cycle of activity is uncertain, it may occur once every few days, or it may occur only once in hundreds of thousands of years. There are many types of volcanoes, the common inverted horn chimney-shaped volcanoes are formed after large-scale eruptions, and some volcanoes, although not extinct volcanoes, have not erupted for tens of thousands of years, and have been buried deep in the ground, occasionally shaking.
But no matter how many years it is active, we're unlucky, just in time. I wanted to look for an exit along the underground river, but the river below was boiling, and if I went down, I had to turn it into dumplings boiled in a pot.
A few hundred meters above my head, a slender white light appeared, and my eyes were glazed and my eyes tingled, what was that? Could it be some kind of long-extinct creature?
Luo Ning was pleasantly surprised: "It's the sky!" It's the sky! ”
The shaking of the underground volcano caused an earthquake, and the earth above my head cracked a big crack, and I hadn't seen the sky outside for so long that I almost forgot what the sky was like, whether it was blue or white.
I said to the rest: "Comrades, it is really an endless road, persevering to the end is victory, for the sake of New China, move forward!" ”
The four people, who were already exhausted, suddenly saw the hope of escaping, and with infinite strength in the flat ground, they pulled their legs apart, rounded their arms, and desperately climbed up the slope.
The vibration below is getting more and more intense, the heat wave is pressing, the strong smell of Liufu chokes people's brains, we are worried that the crack will be shaken and closed by the earthquake, everyone wants to go out as soon as possible, and they all use the momentum of a 100-meter sprint on the steep slope of 45 degrees.
The more up the volcanic rock is more and more broken, some are like sand, it is difficult to gain a foothold, climb up three feet, and fall back two feet, the skin on the hands is worn off, and I don't care about the pain, I clenched my teeth, even kicked and planed, five or six hundred meters high, it was as difficult as a long march over the snowy mountains, after all the physical strength was exhausted, and finally returned to the ground, the blue sky and white clouds, the mountains on both sides were undulating, the place where we climbed up was a section of the Kunlun River Valley, and it was also the lowest area in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, far from the first Daoban. The "Frozen Spring" military station, only a few kilometers away.
Luo Ning's physical strength is not good, Gawa has a foot injury, the two of them fell behind at the last moment, I didn't care about resting, and hurriedly strung the armed belts on the two people with the big man, and hung them down for Luo Ning and them to pull.
The earthquake became more and more violent, and this crack more than one meter wide could collapse at any time, Luo Ning and Gava could only hold on to the belt tightly, affected by the underground vibration, and slid down a step when they stepped on it, and they couldn't even climb up half an inch.
The big man and I used all our strength to pull up, but no matter how strong the two of us were, we couldn't pull them up at the same time. At this time, Gawa let go of the strap and held Luo Ning hard underneath, plus we pulled her up from the crack in one fell swoop.
When I tried to throw the belt down again to save Gawa, a violent tremor came, and the earth closed together again, and Gawa was squeezed alive in the middle.
In the low temperature of minus 20 degrees, our coats and hats were long gone, and the three of us forgot about the cold, wearing only thin clothes, crying and digging in vain with our hands and bayonets on the sand and gravel on the ground......
Three days later, I was lying on my bed in the hospital of the Military Region, and the chief of staff of the Military Region held my hand and cordially expressed his condolences: "Comrade Xiaohu, you have been very brave this time, and on behalf of the Central Military Commission, I would like to express my condolences to you, and I hope that you will recover as soon as possible and make new contributions on the revolutionary road." What do you think? Are you feeling okay now? ”
I replied, "Thank you for your concern, I still ......... Also ...... ...... also "I want to say it's okay, but when I think of those comrades-in-arms who will leave me forever, Xiaolin, Gawa, instructor, and second squad leader, the word "good" is held in my chest, and I can't say it.
