Chapter 180: Calamity
Seeing the rain falling, the crowd ran away, leaving only a few people standing in place.
“Wow, Brother Shen! You’ve actually been transferred to the squad in Shangjing City!”
“Yeah Brother Shen, you’re too good too!”
“Alas, it’s a pity that I can only go to be stationed in a city in Tibet, it’s too far away from Shangjing, so I can’t go back to see Brother Shen often …… But I still say that Brother Shen is awesome!”
“Right! Brother Shen is awesome!”
Teng Wei’s trio clustered around Shen Qingzhu’s side, full of excitement, that look, simply more excited than if they had gone to Shangjing City themselves!
Shen Qingzhu’s brows furrowed as he glanced in the direction of Lin Qiye’s location and glared at the trio.
“All shut up!”
The three Deng Wei immediately stopped talking.
Shen Qingzhu took two steps forward, seemingly wanting to say something to Lin Qiye, but then stopped, and after hesitating for a moment, he chose to turn around and leave ……
He walked slowly, his pace was heavy, obviously he was going to the best city, but his whole person was indescribably despondent.
“Seven nights ……” Baili chubby stood in the rain, hesitantly opened his mouth.
“There’s no need to comfort me, being able to stay in Cangnan is more than I could ask for.” Lin Qiye smiled, he was speaking the truth.
Although there was some doubt in his heart as to why he was transferred into Squad 136, but it was only doubt, rather than going to a strange city in a faraway place again and meeting strange people, he was more willing to stay in Cangnan, by the side of all the people in Squad 136.
His goal was never anything like guarding humanity and getting ahead …… He just wanted to fulfill the pact with Zhao Kongcheng.
The pact, where it is accomplished is the same.
Cao Yuan patted his shoulder in silence, “Go back, it’s raining heavily.”
In just a few moments, the rain was pouring down as if it was pouring down from the sky, the pouring rain poured over their bodies, drenching them completely.
Lin Qiye nodded and was about to leave when his entire body was suddenly stunned.
“What’s wrong?” Baili Chubby opened his mouth in confusion.
Lin Qiye’s brows furrowed slightly, “Do you guys feel that the …… ground is vibrating?”
“Vibrating?” Chubby Baili froze.
Cao Yuan frowned and lowered his body to place his hand on the ground, a touch of doubt surfaced in his eyes, “That’s right, it is indeed vibrating ……
Moreover, the amplitude of the vibration is getting bigger and bigger.”
……
Cangnan Border.
Beneath the Jinnan Mountains, amongst the staggered villages.
The wildly falling rain poured down on the short house made of earthen tiles, flowing into the house along the cracks on the walls and falling onto the ground in drops.
On the old threshold of the short house sat a little girl with a twisted braid, wearing a yellowish short-sleeved dress, holding her head up to look at the gloomy sky.
The pouring rain washed over the dirt road in the village, a dark brown stream of mud trickled down the winding fields, and the whole world seemed to be submerged in the rain.
“Yaya, why are you still sitting here?” A woman hurriedly came out of the house, saw the girl sitting at the door and said, “The rain is so heavy, it’s easy for you to catch a cold sitting at the door, hurry and come in.”
YaYa gave an oh-oh and walked into the house obediently.
The woman walked to the door, looked up at the heavy rain in the Jinnan Mountain, brows locked, look very anxious.
“Alas, such a big rain, your father is still in the mountains …… this can do, let him not go today do not go, non listen!”
The woman anxious stomped her feet, after a moment of hesitation, returned to the house to pick up the wall of the rain poncho, while to their own body set while said to the yaya:
“YaYa, mom is going up the mountain to look for dad, you stay at home with your grandparents, don’t run around, got it?”
“Got it.” YaYa nodded heavily, her twisted braids swinging gently like a small tail.
The woman put on her poncho and walked out of the house in the pouring rain, stepping on the muddy path with one foot at a time, walking slowly but firmly towards the mountain road.
Ya Ya ran to the door, a pair of black eyes watching the woman’s gradually disappearing back, as well as hazy in the rain in the Jinnan Mountain ……
Suddenly, the earth trembled!
YaYa’s figure swayed, nearly falling to the ground, she grabbed the threshold, her small eyes filled with panic.
The vibration of the ground became stronger and stronger, the amplitude became bigger and bigger, until it was hard for her to stabilize her body even when she grabbed the threshold, and the house above her head shook violently, emitting ear-piercing creaks, as if it was going to collapse in the next moment.
She jerked her head up and looked toward the rainy Jinnan Mountain.
As the earth trembled, a massive piece of mountain earth and stone slid down, gradually converging into a pouring dark brown wave as it washed along with the heavy rain!
This wave of dirt and rocks surged down from the mountainside, like a huge dragon of mud and water that roared hideously in the rain, swept wildly over the tilted mountain, and surged towards the foot of the mountain at an astonishing speed.
House after house, village after village was submerged by this brown beast, and those houses that looked hard and sturdy were as fragile as papier-mâché under the greatness of the natural ground.
With wide eyes, Yaya ran back to the house with great difficulty on the shaking ground, shouting:
“Grandma and Grandpa run! The mudslide is coming!!!”
Boom-!!!
Looking down from the sky, the mudslide looked like an invincible roaring beast, mercilessly sweeping through the scattered villages under the Jinnan Mountains in the pouring rain.
Eventually, everything fell dead in the rain ……
……
Ding – ！！！！
The shrill whistle resounded through the training camp, Lin Qiye and Baili Chubby, who had just returned to the dormitory building and were preparing to take a shower, glanced at each other, quickly put down the towel basin in their hands, and spread their legs to run towards the training ground in the rain.
Even though the rain was overwhelming, no one was late, and a few moments later everyone was assembled on the training ground, their figures standing upright in the pouring rain.
“Seven Nights, what did you say …… actually happened?” Baili Chubby asked in a small voice.
“I don’t know.” Lin Qiye shook his head, his expression very grave, “But I reckon …… something should have happened.”
The ones who came to the training ground to gather were not only the recruits, there were other instructors as well, they flew in formation and their eyes were also filled with confusion, not knowing what exactly was happening at this time when they were called to gather.
Buzz–!
A low engine sound came from the distance, a military green caravan sped from the distant road, its bright headlights pierced through the continuous rain curtain, illuminating the dimly lit grounds.
Chief Instructor Yuan Gang walked briskly to the stage, his face under the military cap was unprecedentedly serious, he briefly counted the number of people and almost growled as he said to everyone:
“Ten minutes ago, due to the effects of the earthquake, a large-scale mudslide occurred in the vicinity of Jinnan Mountain! Six surrounding villages were killed, and the preliminary estimate is that there were nearly two hundred victims!”
“Right now, a large number of rescue teams have already set off for Jinnan Mountain, but because of the road, it will take some time for them to arrive!”
“In the face of a mudslide, time! It’s the same as life!”
“Near Jinnan Mountain, the only place that can quickly mobilize a large number of people is our intensive training camp! I know you’ve all finished your intensive training and are about to walk out of here and head to different cities!”
“But for now, please don’t forget! You are still soldiers!!!”
“Soldiers of Daxia! That is, wherever we are needed, we will go!!!”
“Next, I want all of you! Use the abilities you used to guard the city to save these victims!”
Yuan Gang took a deep breath, pointed at the several military caravans parked in the rain in the distance, and shouted:
“Everyone! All aboard!!!”
“Let’s …… go to the disaster relief!!!”
