Lianyunzhai's internal meeting has ended in a short time, after all, the volcanic eruption is imminent, no one can delay the time on the endless discussion, through a short meeting decision, Lianyunzhai immediately evacuated, to the east of Tianmai Mountain, fifty miles away from the Qinghuoling, where is also the sphere of influence of Tianmai Mountain, can temporarily provide them with a place to live, as for the final destination, we have to wait until we escape the catastrophe in front of them.

In fact, in the hearts of most people, they hope that the power of this volcanic eruption will not be too strong, if after the volcanic eruption, Lianyunzhai can be preserved, they will still return to this land that has survived for more than 800 years. The homeland is inseparable, everyone is the same, and the heart is full of nostalgia.
Although Yan Tianxin gave the order to evacuate immediately, there were still people who were unwilling to leave the cottage, most of them were some old people who were about to die, they already regarded this place as a place to bury their bones, how could they be willing to abandon their homes.
The transfer was not as smooth as expected, and at about seven o'clock that night, after repeated mobilization and even forced means, Lianyunzhai began a comprehensive evacuation.
Luo Lie helped Tiewa send the old men from Yangjiatun to the carriage, and saw that the long evacuation team had extended from Lianyunzhai to the halfway up the mountain. Tiewa hugged An Datou and said, "Uncle Luo, let's go too?"
Luo Lie turned around and looked behind him, since he returned to Lianyun Village, Yan Tianxin had been busy with all kinds of affairs, and he couldn't even take the time to talk to him, Luo Lie looked at Yan Tianxin, who was commanding in the distance, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and he said softly: "I still have to pick up someone!"
The person Luo Lie wants to pick up is Fang Kewen, after Fang Kewen received Zhuo Yishou's bloodletting therapy, his hands and feet were sore and unable to move, and now he is still lying in Zhuo Yishou's wooden house to recuperate, and now when it is time to evacuate, others have forgotten about it, Luo Lie can't forget.
"I'll go with you!" said Tiewa.
Luo Lie nodded, and when he took Tiewa to the direction of the wooden house, he met Zhuo Yishou, who also came.
Zhuo Yishou did not forget Fang Kewen who stayed in the wooden house, he had been busy with the cottage just now, he had a lot of things that he had not yet had time to pack, and there were many precious herbs in the wooden house that he had collected over the years, as well as his lifelong experience in practicing medicine, these things were very important to him.
With Zhuo Yi's hand to guide the way, going back became much smoother, halfway through, Tiewa felt something falling on his face, he thought it was snow, wiped it with his hand, and found that his fingers were black, and then he knew that it was volcanic ash.
The trio covered their mouths and noses with cotton cloths to prevent the ash from entering their lungs with their breath. The goose-feather-like volcanic ash drifted more and more, and their eyes interfered with their vision, if there was no Zhuo Yiyi, an old horse who knew the way, Luo Lie and Tiewa would be lost in the flying ash in the sky.
Luo Lie's heart also became very nervous, judging from the current situation, the volcano may erupt at any time, although it is said that man will win the day, but when nature is furious, he should still temporarily avoid the edge, otherwise he will be hit on the head and bleeding, and even lose his life. Since coming to Pale Mountain, his luck has been quite good, but people can't always be lucky, so he still has to avoid risks appropriately.
Came to the vicinity of Huangni Spring, saw that the hot spring was like a boiling pot, the turbid hot spring water was boiling and bubbling, and the surroundings were steaming, and it was not far from Zhuo Yishou's wooden house, and I saw a figure limping towards them with a wooden stick.
Luo Lie had already judged from the other party's figure that the person was Fang Kewen, it turned out that after they left, Fang Kewen rested for a while, went out to look at the sky, and felt that the situation was not good, so he found a stick to support his hand and left the wooden house.
Although Luo Lie said that he would come back to pick him up when he left, Fang Kewen had the experience of being ruthlessly abandoned by his companions before, and the longer Luo Hunt and the others left, the more panicked he became, for fear that the scene of being abandoned would reappear, which was also the reason why Fang Kewen decided to give up and continue to wait and choose to leave on his own.
Seeing that Luo Lie really kept his promise and ventured to meet him on the eve of the volcanic eruption, Fang Kewen was moved and ashamed in his heart, five years of lonely survival underground made him hate the sinister nature of human nature, and even lost the most basic trust in people, after knowing Luo Lie and Yan Tianxin, the cold heart of the past gradually regained the temperature, and also found some confidence in friendship.
Luo Lie saw that Fang Kewen had understood what he was thinking, but he didn't break it, and said with a smile: "Mr. Fang welcomes us." ”
Fang Kewen laughed at himself: "I can't wait." ”
Everyone is smart, so they naturally laugh it off. When Tiewa saw Fang Kewen's ugly appearance, she was afraid in her heart, and she didn't dare to approach for a while, and stood far away with An Datou in her arms.
Luo Lie said: "Tiewa, you take care of Mr. Fang, and I will accompany Mr. Zhuo back to the wooden house." ”
Tiewa answered, but still didn't dare to approach.
After Luo Lie and Zhuo left, Fang Kewen glanced at Tiewa, knowing that this child must have dared not approach because of his ugly appearance, and couldn't help but think of his relatives in Jinmen, they must have thought that they were dead, and they were like this, I don't know how they would feel when they saw it, and whether they would be frightened?
The white smoke on the top of the mountain is getting thicker and thicker, and Tiewa has seen this situation for the first time in her life, and the two big black bean-like eyes of An Datou in her arms showed a frightened light, making a whining sound, Tiewa hugged An Datou tightly, and used this way to give it some comfort.
Fang Kewen said: "Don't be afraid, the volcanic eruption is just a natural phenomenon, and it won't erupt for a while and a half." In fact, he didn't know when the volcano would erupt, judging from the current situation, the eruption was imminent, he just wanted Tiewa to feel at ease.
Tiewa realized Fang Kewen's kindness, nodded and said, "Will this mountain catch fire?"
From his words, Kewen knew that he had never seen a volcanic eruption, so he smiled and nodded, "Yes!"
"Will there be a fire dragon coming out?"
Fang Kewen was stopped by Tiewa's words.
Tiewa explained: "My grandmother said that many of the mountains in Pale Mountain are inhabited by fire dragons, and they usually sleep, and every once in a while they will fly out to make a threat. ”
Fang Kewen replied positively, the ground under his feet suddenly began to tremble violently, not far away from the yellow mud spring suddenly spewed out a muddy yellow water flow, the water flow went straight to the sky about sixteen meters high, the hot fountain scattered in the air, Fang Kewen hurriedly pulled the iron baby back, to avoid being scalded by the scorching spring water, the water quality of the yellow mud spring contains a lot of sulfur, so it will show a color similar to mud.
When the two retreated, the shaking of the ground became more and more violent, so that they could not stand firm at all, and fell to the ground, Tiewa lost her balance, and An Datou also fell to the ground, and the little dog fled away in fear out of instinct.
Tiewa called An Datou's name, got up and staggered and chased after him, Fang Kewen was afraid that the child would make a mistake, so he limped and chased after him.
The entire Tianmai Mountain began to tremble, as if it was violently shaken by a pair of giants, Tianmai Mountain scattered under this violent shaking, the mountain rocks rolled down from the top one after another, smashed the trees, crushed the withered yellow grass under the snow, while the frequency of the vibration became faster and faster, the magma that had been suppressed at the bottom of the mountain for thousands of years rushed out of the shackles of the mountain in a dull roar, looking from afar, the red and scorching magma rushed straight into the sky, like a set of burning fire dragons rushing into the sky covered with black clouds, the clouds were forced to retreat around by this fire dragon, and the clouds were in the process of retreating, violently colliding and rubbing against each other, and the black clouds that were originally so thick that they could not be dissolved quickly turned up, forming a huge black vortex in the air, the black hole in the center is like a bottomless giant mouth, trying to swallow the fire dragon that rushes straight to the sky, but it is forced to retreat step by step by the fire dragon's scorching body, and countless purple lightning bolts jump at the edge of the vortex.
Volcanic ash fell from the sky like goose feathers, like a black snow.
Tiewa finally hugged An Datou, but a tall cedar fell to him, Fang Kewen reacted immediately, rushed forward and threw Tiewa to the ground, the two rolled down the snow slope, just left the original position, the cedar fell to the ground, and the snowflakes splashed for a while.
Luo Lie and Zhuo Yishou came out after taking important items from the wooden house, and just saw the shocking scene in front of them, if it wasn't for Fang Kewen's timely response, Tiewa was afraid that she had been hit by that cedar, and her life would be lost.
The two of them came close and picked up Fang Kewen and Tiewa, Zhuo Yiyi looked up at the direction of the top of the mountain, and said with a stern face: "Get out of here as soon as possible, it's too late." ”
The people and horses of Lianyunzhai have retreated to the halfway up the mountain, the violent earthquake before the eruption made many people lose their balance and fall to the ground, for a time people turned on their backs, and some of them and livestock rolled down the snow slope, and when the tremor subsided slightly, reorganized the team, everyone had to temporarily put aside their nostalgia for their homeland after really feeling the power of this natural rage, and speed up their pace to leave the world that was about to be occupied by lava and volcanic ash.
Yan Tianxin couldn't help but look back, and saw that the red mountain top had been covered with hot magma, and the scene of ice and fire was beautiful but cruel, with the expansion of the magma range, the hundreds of years old Lianyun Village would eventually be destroyed, and some things could not be undone by manpower. I only hope that Luo Lie will not encounter any danger, and after thinking about it, even if a person like him encounters danger, he will be able to turn evil into good fortune, compared to their previous experience, this test in front of him should be nothing to Luo Lie.
Fu Guosheng, the second master, came to Yan Tianxin's side and said in a low voice: "Shopkeeper, the southeast has the largest slope, so the flow rate of lava is relatively fast, if we go directly to Qinghuoling, I'm afraid the road will be blocked by lava before we wait there." ”
Yan Tianxin frowned slightly, she also saw the situation that Fu Guosheng said, nodded and said, "In your opinion......"
