Ming Chang didn't ask any more questions.

He led the way in front with a flashlight, Chi Yue and his party followed, and the soldiers and residents of the base walked at the end.

The long procession walked out of the courtyard gate and along a winding path through the back mountains covered with trees and bamboos.

After walking for about two kilometers, the fire at the foot of Yuanyun Mountain spread, and the flames were wrapped in billowing smoke, swaying in the direction of the main hall of the Taoist temple.

The initiator who left behind a piece of fire passed through the source city at a speed of five or six hundred kilometers an hour, and rushed in a straight line to the Qingyang base below the source city.

There were no troops stationed at the Qingyang base, and the leadership team did not do anything, only informing the residents that the tsunami was approaching and telling them to evacuate on their own, and then ran away by helicopter with their families.

Residents who did not believe in a tsunami were forced to pack their belongings when they saw the leadership team leave in a helicopter and the patrols and medical teams left on strike.

But many people don't have transportation.

They either talk to their neighbors and exchange supplies for a free ride; or squatting in the parking area to grab it; Either go into the official residential area and find a bicycle.

Uncle Ge's family, who couldn't give up their supplies and couldn't rob others, saw a dozen bicycles in the residential area being ridden, so they had to drag their suitcases, follow about 30 people in the same situation as them, walked to an 11-story building, and climbed onto the roof to avoid for a while.

They decided that the tsunami had reached the eleventh floor, so they sat leisurely against the wall and chatted with the people next to them.

Aunt Ge didn't stop talking.

first complained that the leadership team ignored them, and then accused the car robbers of being immoral, and the spittle stars were flying all over the sky.

She laughed at others for being stupid: "I don't know what they think, isn't it good to go upstairs and hide?" It's so troublesome to run out with so much effort and come back when the tsunami is over. ”

"Yes."

"They did it themselves—"

The middle-aged man who echoed Aunt Ge hadn't finished the sentence "pretend to be smart" when he was suddenly shaken forward by the violently shaking building.

The moment he held his palm on the ground, he noticed the change in temperature, and when he was puzzled, he heard the young man sitting opposite raise his voice: "It's burning!" The fire is burning! ”

"What's on fire?"

"Sea, sea, sea ......"

"What are you talking nonsense?" Ge Hui, who used his strength to stabilize his figure, said inexplicably: "How can the sea water catch fire?" ”

The youth did not respond.

The rest of the people, sensing the surging heat, got up one after another, staring at the red light not far away like stunned youths.

Seeing the flames of the sea eight or nine meters high, rushing towards the base with an irresistible force, their brains were buzzing, and their legs were like lead, and it was difficult to move half a step.

"Run!"

I don't know who roared heartbreakingly.

Ge Hui suddenly came back to his senses.

He dragged his pale-faced girlfriend, called his parents, and ran to the door leading downstairs at great speed.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The waves glowing with a dazzling red light hit the rooftop, and the heat and fire caught up with their pace, drowning the Ge Hui family who were violently shaken and tripped to the ground in an instant.

With a burst of screams, the sea water poured down the corridor, through the doors and windows of the building, and hit every corner, devouring all the people who had not left in the shortest time.

The voices stopped.

The building was set on fire by fire.

The billowing smoke around obscured the direction of the tsunami's departure, silently turning Qingyang into a dead city.

*

"The tsunami should arrive in Qingyang?" Ge Qinyao, who was walking on the mountain road, thought divergently and imagined the direction of the tsunami impact.

"Calculate the time, almost."

"Then Ge Hui ...... them" She paused for two seconds and turned her head to look at Ge Huai: "Do you think they can survive?" ”

"I can't."

Ge Huai knew that family too well.

He said in a firm tone: "They will never leave the base without a car or military escort." ”

The situation at the Qingyang base, he and Ge Qinyao couldn't be clearer, if Ge Hui's family chose to stay, they would only die.

Ge Qinyao sighed with emotion.

She raised her arm and swept the sack that Ge Huai was carrying on her shoulder: "The choice of people at the critical moment is too important. ”

"Indeed." Xie Changxiao agrees.

He walked around a dry branch: "I can do it again if I chose the wrong one before, but now I ...... If you don't know it, you will take a life. ”

It's like walking a tightrope.

If you are not careful, you will never recover.

"Well, we're going to have to make a choice soon." Wen Qizhou stopped, his eyes shining on the position illuminated by the flashlight.

"What choice?"

"Take the rope bridge or take the detour."

Directly in front of them was a rope bridge made of iron chains and wooden planks, nearly one meter wide and nearly sixty meters long.

The rusty chains and sparse blackened planks don't look very strong, making it difficult to feel safe.

"Master Ming, how high is this bridge?" Chi Yue walked to the side of the bridge, held his palm against the chain, and took a flashlight to shine down.

"Twenty or thirty meters."

After answering, Ming Zhang said in front of the two soldiers: "This bridge is a few years old, and I can't guarantee that there will be no accidents." If you think about it, you really don't dare to go around in a circle. ”

Soldier: "How long does it take to go around?" ”
