After the Earthquake of Rebirth

The next morning, Du Cheng took a brief wash with mineral water and returned to the tent. Seeing Ning Qiyan tossing and turning, he just didn't want to get up and didn't call him.He took out two cans from his backpack and planned to heat them with the remaining charcoal.

"Don't eat canned food, there are still a lot of meat skewers prepared earlier, try to finish them in the morning. After that, I'm afraid I don't want to eat meat in a short time." Ning Qiyan lifted the quilt and sat up.

Seeing that he was in a bad mood, Du Cheng didn't talk too much, but just tried his best to let him help him, and didn't let him have time to think wildly when he was free.

Those who camped the night before packed up and left one after another in the morning.

For a moment Ning Qiyan wanted to stop them, after all, compared to the city full of tall buildings, this is a safer place.But the thought just passed by.Since he didn't think about spreading the news of the earthquake, there's no need to expose himself at the last moment.

Don't blame him for being cold-blooded.When he and Du Cheng were the most helpless and needed help most, no one reached out to help them, no matter if it was a classmate who got along well or a teacher who favored them both.

Ning Qiyan will always remember how he felt when he took the check and watched Du Cheng walk into the prison gate.I also remember how I felt when I was hugged out by Du Cheng's trembling arms while nestling in the dark broken wall in pain and terror.

So in this life, as long as Du Cheng is well, Ning Qiyan doesn't care about anyone.

At exactly 12 o'clock, Du Cheng put out the remaining charcoal fire with water.Pack up the leftover iron picks, and let Ning Qiyan put them into the space together with the barbecue grill and other sundries.

Bright sunlight hits the marble floor of the garden.The garden, the woods, and the quiet seemed to be the only two of them in the entire Longshan Park.

At 12:37, Ning Qiyan suddenly hugged Du Cheng beside him.

"We must live well!"

hum-

It was as if the muffled sound coming from the ground made people's ears roar for a moment.

Reflexively, Du Cheng pressed Ning Qiyan tightly into his arms.

At this time, the whole ground began to tremble, and it became more and more intense. In the end, Du Cheng had to kneel on the ground with his left leg to stabilize their bodies.

Ning Qiyan couldn't hear anything because of his tinnitus, he could only feel that he was being held firmly in Du Cheng's arms, and felt a sense of solidity on the strongly shaking ground.

After as long as a century, the gradually stable ground let the tense muscles of the body relax all of a sudden.

Ning Qiyan didn't care about alleviating the tinnitus, pushed Du Cheng away, knelt on the ground and vomited.

Du Cheng pressed his ears, waited until the soreness and tinnitus caused by the sudden relaxation of the body disappeared, looked around, limped out of a bottle of mineral water from the tent that was shaken and tumbled out, unscrewed the cap, and sent it to the Ning Qiyan stopped slowly.

Ning Qiyan sat up straight, rinsed his mouth with Du Cheng's hand, and only after the tinnitus disappeared did he feel alive.

Glancing at his watch, it's 1:11 in the afternoon.

It seemed to be shaking for half an hour.

"Is it better?" Du Cheng asked in a low voice.

Ning Qiyan nodded, paused, and then looked at Du Cheng's left leg.

"Are you hurt?" As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and rolled up the pants on Du Cheng's left leg.A bruise has begun to appear below the entire knee.

Ning Qiyan asked Du Cheng to sit down, and using the cover of his pocket, he took out a bottle of medicinal wine and a spray from the space.Carefully rub the wound with medicinal wine, and finally spray a layer of mist.

"Can you move?" Ning Qiyan asked.

Du Cheng nodded, moved his knees, and got up to straighten the tent.

"Do you need to put it away?" Du Cheng asked.

"No, there's not much damage here. It will probably be used by the government to resettle the survivors. With the government's participation, they won't be lost in a short time." Ning Qiyan shook his head, waiting for the survivors to respond in the later stage of the rescue, and the order will be restored. Complete chaos.

Putting on masks and carrying travel bags, the two walked into the cherry blossom forest where many trees were overturned by the earthquake.

The entire sky was low and gray, and the air was filled with dust. The originally clean stone path had been blocked by fallen trees.

Ning Qiyan and Du Cheng walked out supporting each other.

Suddenly, a shrill and sharp aviation siren resounded throughout the city.

"Surviving citizens, please evacuate to an open area immediately! In case of aftershocks! Surviving citizens, please evacuate to an open area immediately! In case of aftershocks! Survive..."

The alarm stopped, and a voice from nowhere echoed over City D.

"There are no aftershocks." Ning Qiyan whispered.

"What?" Du Cheng didn't hear clearly.

Ning Qiyan stepped over a tree trunk and repeated: "I said there were no aftershocks."

"why?"

Ning Qiyan curled his lips, "You forgot to learn it in high school geography class. This is not an earthquake zone, so the earthquake just now passed and there will be no aftershocks."

Du Cheng thought for a while, and recalled that he seemed to have learned it back then.

"Didn't the earthquake happen just now?"

Ning Qiyan paused, a little helpless, "It was a global earthquake just now, as long as it is on the earth, there is no way to escape it."

Du Cheng didn't speak any more.

When the two walked out of the woods, the metal gate, which was fine the day before, was already lying on the ground, and a corner of the ticket office next to it collapsed.The surviving staff stood or sat, dazed and at a loss.

The two walked out, and when they passed by these few staff members, Ning Qiyan stopped.

"If you have family members, go back and have a look, maybe you can save them in time." Ning Qiyan reminded gently.

The dazed staff stared blankly at Ning Qiyan, and it took a while to realize that except for a young man in a security uniform who stood still, the others got up and ran out.It seems that they have just realized that they have just experienced an earthquake, and their family members may be in danger.

"Where are you going?" The remaining security youth asked in panic.

"Go save people." Ning Qiyan replied.

The security youth moved his feet, "Shall I go with you?"

Ning Qiyan smiled, "Okay, let's go together. There is strength in numbers." He understood the youth's feelings very well. He had just experienced a disaster, and reflexively wanted to be with the same kind, so that he could have a sense of security.

The three of them walked down the hill without slowing down, and now only Ning Qiyan's car was left alone in the parking lot.After starting the car, Du Cheng sat in the co-pilot's seat, while the security guard got into the back seat.

As soon as I turned on the road, there were a lot of cars parked on the road. Most of them were caused by accidents when the vehicles lost control in the moment of the earthquake.

Although many survivors of the car accident on the side of the road called for help, Ning Qiyan did not look sideways, and walked through the gaps between vehicles and drove towards the city.

"Don't you care about them?" the security youth asked in a low voice after a while.

"These situations are not dangerous, and most survivors can save themselves. Those who asked for help wanted to go to the hospital, but after the earthquake just now, which hospital do you think can survive?" Ning Qiyan explained softly.

As time passed, the car has driven into the city.All you can see are destroyed buildings.

Along the way, there was not a single surviving building.

The security youth who had already calmed down was fluctuating again. If Ning Qiyan hadn't kept comforting him, he might have collapsed.

Until the car couldn't move anymore, Ning Qiyan told them to get out of the car.

"Where are you going?" Looking at the dilapidated buildings and walls on both sides of the road, the security youth just followed Ning Qiyan and Du Cheng, as if speaking could make him unable to endure the screams and howls in his ears.

"Qingyun Kindergarten." Ning Qiyan replied.

Compared with adults who are gradually polluted by society, young children can make Ning Qiyan more compassionate.For the same rescue, Ning Qiyan hoped to save more children.Moreover, children, the elderly, and pregnant women will always be taken care of by the government under the extreme weather in the future, and they have the greatest chance of surviving.

The location where the car stopped was not far from Qingyun Kindergarten. The three of them walked briskly for more than ten minutes, and they saw a kindergarten that was not seriously damaged by the earthquake.

On the relatively clean and flat kindergarten playground, many children have already gathered tightly together under the leadership of the surviving teachers.On the ruins of the earthquake, there are already people working hard to save people.

Before rebirth, Ning Qiyan was crushed under the rubble for two days after the earthquake. Later, he was injured at home and recuperated.After the injury recovered, it was already one and a half months after the earthquake, and the rescue had long since ended. It was impossible for those who were not rescued to survive the one and a half months without water and food.

So even though he wanted to rescue him, Ning Qiyan didn't know how to do it for a while looking at the ruins in front of him.

Seeing that Ning Qiyan and the security youth were at a loss as to what to do, Du Cheng walked quickly into the playground and pulled a dirty young teacher with red eyes.

"you……"

Without waiting for the female teacher to ask, Du Cheng interrupted directly, "We are here to help, point us to the location, and we will save lives."

The female teacher's eyes lit up, she turned around and sent the children around her to another injured teacher, and ran back quickly, leading the three of them to climb up the ruins.

"Here! This is the classroom for the children in the small class to take a nap!" The female teacher said without turning her head.

In fact, before she could say anything, seeing her kneeling on the ground and picking up rocks, Ning Qiyan and the three of them had already started to act.

"Teacher, don't pick it up, come here and take the child down."

Hearing Du Cheng's voice, Ning Qiyan turned around and saw Du Cheng carrying two children out of the stone pile.

The blood on the two children was not heavy, because they were so close, Ning Qiyan could clearly see the panic in their eyes.

The relatively fatter child was hugging tightly the girl with a small knot on her head.

When the female teacher heard Du Cheng's words, she put down the gravel in her hand without saying a word, walked over carefully, and carried the child out of the ruins.

"Be gentle. There is a wooden bed with a fence underneath. Don't let the stone slab be pushed down obliquely, otherwise the fence on one side will not be able to bear the weight of the stone slab." Du Cheng reminded them.
