Chapter 14: The Darkness Before Dawn
In the face of a life-threatening disaster at any time, she is still a strong and independent woman, who is more attractive than a delicate and fragile woman. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Lu You didn't have time to care about whether Li Jiaojiao, who was a newcomer, could afford to eat well, and he had already seen her leave his embrace, looking for the clothes that he had just taken off and casually thrown aside.
In this case, Lu You did not hesitate to condense, quickly sorted out his outfits, and left the room with Li Jiaojiao and walked towards the office of the villa.
Because most of the people took refuge in the silver kettle spout temporarily, and almost all of them did not know each other, the owner and operator of the villa temporarily became the commander, and the original waiter became the messenger.
With the resources of the mountain villa, it was still able to support hundreds of people for a day or two, so although everyone was panicked and frightened so far, most of them still remained calm and happy. After all, they survived the first wave of the catastrophe, and they are in a much better position than the countless people who drowned in the tsunami.
Now the tide has begun to gradually recede, maybe tomorrow morning, everyone will be able to go down the mountain, although the flood has destroyed everything, but at most the coastal damage is more serious, I believe that the central government will soon respond and rescue, when the time comes, whether it is reconstruction or transfer is a choice.
The deceased rest in peace, the living still need to live, and although the disaster is terrifying, everyone thinks that this hurdle has passed, and tomorrow must be a new day full of hope.
It wasn't until Lu You and the others came to the general manager's office of the resort, and Qin Daming, the ---manager of the hundreds of disasters in the resort, said that it was very likely that in half an hour, the second wave of tsunamis would come, and even if there would be several tsunamis after that, that this generous and friendly uncle was stunned as if struck by lightning.
This world-class catastrophe came too suddenly and too quickly, and the time reserved for people to react was not even a few hours, without a hint of warning, it was just a rare and ordinary meteor shower, but it destroyed Antarctica at once, and the chain reaction caused even the world's major powers did not have time to react.
Without the luck of a protagonist in the movie, and without the conspiracy of the 'Noah's Ark' set up by the elite behind the backs of all mankind, in the face of this sudden and terrifying tsunami, almost everyone equally endured its annihilating power.
Yesterday's first wave of the pioneer tsunami directly covered 21 percent of the earth's land area, killing countless human beings.
However, the catastrophe is not over, and the loss of Antarctica is like a sudden fever and cold patient, not only the surface of the ocean is shaking, but also various complications have occurred around the world, but it is still not obvious.
Although Qin Daming's face was pale, he didn't fully believe Lu You's words, and looked at the two of them for a while before coming back to his senses and said, "Even if the second wave of the tsunami is coming, so what? You know, we're halfway up the mountain at an altitude of nearly 542 meters, and the first tsunami came, but it didn't take us away like it was on the ground. ”
Speaking of this, Qin Daming, who was in good health, seemed to have regained some sense of security, and when he told Lu You, it was as if he was convincing himself: "Even if the tsunami continues to come, as long as we stay here, it will be fine." And the central government will definitely send people to rescue, maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, the tsunami will always stop, and then we can be saved. ”
Hearing Qin Daming's words, Li Jiaojiao's expression also calmed down, after all, he was right, this mountain has already resisted the first tsunami, and may still be able to support it. And no matter how terrible the tsunami is, it is impossible to really crush the whole country, perhaps now the central government has begun to deploy and carry out rescue operations.
Lu You also nodded, but he still spoke: "Of course, I also very much hope that this place is still safe, or the rescue from the central government will come soon, we came here just to remind you, I hope you can be mentally prepared." ”
After speaking, Lu You nodded to Qin Daming, and then pulled Li Jiaojiao to prepare to leave, but when he opened the office door, Lu You couldn't help but turn his head and added: "Maybe you can also choose to take precautions, after all, it seems that the silver spout collapsed in the mountain at low tide before, how to cause some accidents due to the tsunami, we can also have an extra set of safety precautions." ”
Qin Daming was silent for a while and then nodded and said, "Thank you for the reminder and advice, I will consider it." ”
After leaving the office, Lu You took Li Jiaojiao to An Jie and Chen Wei's room. On the way, Li Jiaojiao frowned lightly and looked at Lu You and asked hesitantly, "Do you think it's not safe here?" ”
Lu You nodded, not to mention that the feeling of danger in his heart still existed, it was the reminder of the disaster that was still vividly displayed in his mind, which made Lu You dare not be careless.
Lu You guessed that as long as he was still within the scope of the disaster, the reminder of the disaster would exist, and since there was a reminder of the disaster, this disaster would definitely be fatal to him.
"Then why don't you just tell Manager Qin? If there is really any danger here, there are hundreds of people here! ”
Although Li Jiaojiao and Lu You have been in contact for a short time, because they have a very close relationship with Lu You now, and yesterday it was always Lu You's foresight and decisively made the right choice, so that they were lucky to survive and come to Huiyang City.
This made Li Jiaojiao have a kind of dependence on Lu You, and subconsciously felt that maybe Lu You might have a way to let more people survive.
It's just that in the face of Li Jiaojiao's expectant gaze, Lu You could only show a wry smile and shook his head: "Manager Qin is not you, and he doesn't know me." And even if he believes, he may not be able to unite the people here, and if there are any more rumors, it will even cause instability and turmoil here. At the end of the day, it's just a bunch of loose sand gathered here, and all we can do is remind them that the rest of the best will come to a later stage. ”
Listening to Lu You's words, Li Jiaojiao's bright eyes dimmed, but soon she adjusted her mentality, raised her head and showed a reluctant smile: "Well, let's do our best." After all, I'm not that great, it's just that so many people have been swallowed up by the tsunami, and I don't want to see anyone die again.
However, we can't guarantee whether we can survive the next disaster now, let's take care of ourselves first, I don't want to die so soon, Lu You, will you protect me? ”
Lu You hugged Li Jiaojiao into his arms vigorously, kissed her forehead, nodded deeply and said with a smile: "Well, I will protect you." Since I said I'd take you to another dimension to have a look, of course I'll send you home after reading it, and then you can give me a fat doll and take it back to meet my mother. ”
"Flutter."
Li Jiaojiao laughed, held Lu You's hand, and the two walked back to the room together.
It was 6:11 a.m., 20 minutes after the earthquake.
