Chapter Thirty-Seven: We Guess Where That Kid Lives(1/2)
The entire Lop Nur began to shake the earth, and the terrifying sound from the underground became louder and louder, as if a giant monster was arching upwards.
Several women screamed in dismay.
It’s an earthquake, it must be an earthquake!
I shouted, "Let's go! Lying down!" I was thrown out again and hit the RV with a "bang". I turned around and saw that the juice had been thrown over. She leaned against the body of the car, her eyes full of horror.
I wanted to catch her, but it was out of reach. I shouted, "Get out of here!"
Liu Xueer asked: "Why? I can't move!"
As long as the RV overturned in the earthquake, we became meat pies. I couldn't say that clearly, and only shouted two words: "Come overturn!"
She suddenly understood and began to climb to the front of the car to grab the bumper.
This silly girl! If the RV rolls forward in the earthquake, she will be killed.
I didn't have time to say anything, and struggled to stand up, staggered behind her, grabbed her hand, dragged her to the open space, and the earth shook violently again, and I pounced on her.
I hugged her tightly, and it was not easy for two people to be thrown around.
Unexpectedly, a huge force shook us away again, and in the blink of an eye she was already lying a few meters away.
With a muffled "click", a crack broke into the desert between me and the juice, and it became bigger and bigger...
At that urgent moment, a Weibo post I wrote flashed through my mind, and I said: If I stand face to face with you and the earth suddenly splits into two from us, what will happen?
The crack between me and the juice is like a big mouth, which has reached more than one meter wide.
There are a few people here and there, and there are a few people on her side. I only saw Yiwu clearly, but she didn't lie down, sat slanted, holding her hands tightly on the ground.
Through the dust, the juice looked at me and started crying. At this time, she did not forget to criticize me and shouted loudly: "Zhou Dedong! When you reach the critical moment of life and death, do you just throw me away?--"
I didn't know what I thought, so I got up again, staggered and helped out for a few steps, jumped over the big ditch, and rushed to her.
I said, "It's okay! It'll be over in a while!"
She hugged me tightly.
The desert is like a crazy bull, shaking its huge body again and again. Juye and I were holding tightly, and we were not separated again.
From then on, I knew that when the end of the world came, if our loved ones and lovers were not around, we needed to catch one person.
Finally, Lop Nur stopped shaking, and the roar from the ground quickly receded, leaving only the big ditch in the desert, unfathomable.
I looked around and saw that the tent was tilted, all the vehicles were moved, and there were deep scratches on the sand.
I patted Jinger's head and smiled and said, "It's okay, I jumped over before the earth was divided into two."
The juice didn't let go of me and cried even harder.
This day was April 27, 2013.
At least 8 magnitude earthquake occurred at 90°18’30” east longitude and 40°25’30” north latitude. You may not have seen this news, just like we cannot receive signals from the outside world.
Everyone got up one after another, their hair and faces were covered in sand, and they were talking in panic.
I said, "There is an earthquake."
Meng Xiaoshuai said: "What the hell is this!"
Bubu said: "Will there be aftershocks?"
I said, "I'm not an earthquake bureau."
Bubu said: "We are so numb! Four eyes have felt it long ago."
I said, "Come on, let's talk about that fatal pussy." I looked at the juice and almost laughed. She had a baby face, but now she was covered in sand and was washed by tears, and she looked like a dirty child. She didn't know, so I held back my smile and asked her, "Where is the fatal pussy on the human body?"
Liu Jinger said seriously: "There are too many, there are 36 in total, distributed throughout the body. However, they are not as magical as written in martial arts novels, and require a lot of energy to be effective. For example, a song says that Baihui fell to the ground, and the tailbone did not return home. Zhangmen was hit, and nine out of ten people died. The sun and the mutemen must see the King of Hell. The broken spine and the bones were broken, and the body died in a hurry under the knees..."
As she said that, she touched the top of my head: "This place is Baihui." Then, she actually hit me with a smile: "Have you fallen to the ground?"
Then, she kept hitting me: "You are so fine!"
I pushed her away: "Stop playing!"
Bubu said: "It's useless to know the location of these acupoints. We don't have coordinates, so we can't find them at all."
I said, "Let me think about it again..."
Outside the title raised his hand: "Boss Zhou, can I make a speech?"
I said, "You said."
The outsider said: "He said he lived in the dead-death hole, and I think it should be the ancient tomb!"
My heart trembled.
The fatal hole is likely to refer to the ancient tomb!
Bubu nodded, "It makes sense..."
I said, "Extraordinary, you have made an important contribution. This child comes and goes freely in this ecstasy land. This place is likely to be his home. The Gobi Desert is flat, the summer is very hot, and the wind and sand are strong. The residents all live in the mud nest. Where does this child live? There is an ancient tomb in Lop Nur, which is likely to be occupied by him."
Bubu said: "What should we do?"
I said: "Continue to move, see if we can avoid the magnetic field, and see if we can hit any markers. The most important thing is that we need to find the ancient tomb."
Liu Jinger said, "Don't go to that kind of place, it's too unlucky."
Meng Xiaoshuai was very excited: "I'll go, I'll go! I just like the ancient tomb!"
Yiwu also said: "Jinger, it's so fun to go explore."
Liu Xueer said: "If you encounter a ghost blowing the light, no one can come up with it."
Meng Xiaoshuai said: "If you don't want to go, don't curse everyone, okay?"
Liu Jinger said, "Dear, come and seal my mouth. There are glue strips on the car."
I said, "We don't know if we can find it yet, don't be verbal."
Bubu said: "Which direction should we look for it?"
I said, "Do we have a direction?"
Next, everyone got up and started to clean up the tent.
No one refuted my plan, and Bai Xinxin didn't talk anymore.
Liu Xueer and I just put away the tent when Yiwu ran over and said, "Boss Zhou, I'm throwing something..."
I asked, "What?"
She said: "My burial (sleeping) medicine."
I said, "What else?"
"The video recorder is gone," she said.
I said, "Where did you put it?"
She said: "It's in the box."
I said, "Not locked?"
She said: "It's locked."
I immediately asked everyone: "Who did you take the dressing stuff?"
Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.
I said again, "You all see, what else have you lost?"
Everyone started to look through their luggage, but no one lost anything.
I'm a little bit a little bit a little strange.
I asked Yiwu: "Do you have severe insomnia?"
She said: "It's been quite good these days."
I said, "Then don't look for it. When I go out from Lop Nur, I will give you a video recorder and I will treat it as a gift from me."
Yi Wu's eyes always showed a kind of melancholy. After hearing my words, it was like a pile of ashes that rose up with flames. It suddenly lit up. She quickly lowered her head, covered her eyes with her eyelids, and said softly: "Thank you."
It took us half an hour to put away our tents and get on the bus.
I asked the outsider to get into Meng Xiaoshuai's car. I thought it would be awkward to have Meng Xiaoshuai and Xu Ergo sitting in the same car, plus the outsider and Siyan, which would definitely be awkward. They could not continue to argue, nor did they have room to make peace.
Liu Juer and I were still at the forefront.
Although the convoy followed me, I really don’t know where to go. It’s not right toward the center of the lake in my senses, and it’s not right toward the direction of the lake in my senses.
I chose the direction of the sun.
Now, the sun is in the east, and I run towards it. After noon, I turn away from it again.
I said to Juye while driving, "You should wash your face."
She slowly turned her face and said unreasonably: "Do you think I'm dirty? Do I have to put on makeup like Meng Xiaoshuai?"
I said, "Look in the mirror yourself."
