Cats grow fields in the apocalyptic wasteland
Chapter 35 Rainy Night
For the first time, Charlon truly confronts an earthquake.
He didn't know until today that objects in an earthquake are shaken from side to side and not just up and down.
The truck shook violently on the ground, the rice and metal parts in the car were shaken everywhere, and the parts collided with each other making a "dong dong" sound.
Xia Lunongmao's face was full of panic. He felt that he was a dead leaf on a branch in the strong wind, and he was in danger of falling at any time.
His brother hugged him tightly, and he was careful not to overwhelm him with his strength.
The brothers huddled together to resist the seemingly endless shaking.
Xia Lunong desperately hooked his brother's clothes with the tip of his claws, his emerald eyes stared very wide.
He huddled in his brother's arms, his long hair was blown up, his tail was almost stiff, and the expression on his face was terrified.
Others were no better off.
Luo Congxin, who was opposite him, gritted his teeth, and judging from the expression on his face, he seemed to be about to cry.
Under this violent vibration, everyone seemed to have lost the sense of time.
Everyone waited resignedly, with frightened and distorted expressions.
The invisible pressure came from the air, and Xia Lunong felt the smell of blood in his mouth, and his brother's arms also smelled of blood.
There was a rumbling explosion in the distance, like a thunderstorm, or like a mountain peak sliding down and crashing into the ground.
Xia Lunong's ears are particularly good. Apart from these, he can also hear the sounds of various animals running wildly.
Wild boars, bison, wild sheep, wild horses, wild dogs... The mutated wild beasts seemed to converge into a torrent, rumbling and rolling past from a distance, and the torrent was mixed with all kinds of mournful beast roars.
I don't know how long it took before all the movements around me slowly stopped.
The car stopped shaking, and the rumble outside also stopped, and it became extremely silent instead.
The chirping of insects and birds that are standard in the field has completely disappeared, and the silence is disturbing.
"Hiss—" Luo Congxin struggled to get up, limped to the car wall, and looked out.
Ba Niu's voice came weakly from the cab, "Are you all right?"
Yan Xiannian glanced at his team members one by one, and replied hoarsely: "It's nothing serious, how about you?"
He let go of Xia Huoqu, his hand was already stiff because he held his arm for too long and deliberately controlled the strength.
Ba Niu's voice relaxed a bit, panting, "I'm fine too."
There was rice in the car body as a buffer, no one was injured, and the parts that were removed were okay. Several people checked it under weak light, and found no particularly serious damage.
Everyone looked out of the car bucket.
The ominous yellow light in the sky outside has almost completely faded away, leaving only a grayish-yellow background.
Under the gray-yellow night, the mountain peak stands there quietly, dark and frightening.
Ba Niu rolled down from the cab in disgrace, staggered to the side of the rear bucket to support, his Adam's apple rolled and exhaled hot breath, "It's too dangerous, should we fix it here, and then go on the road after dawn?"
"Meow!" Xia Lunong interrupted him, his hoarse meow was full of anxiety.
Xia Huoqu smelled the blood on his body, and touched his furry head to tail with his hands, "Are you hurt?"
Xia Lunong shook her head and patted his brother with her paw, before waiting for the others to reply, she called out again, "Meow!"
The urging is very obvious.
Yan Xianian immediately asked, "Xiao Nong, do you think it's not safe here?"
"Meow!" the cat nodded its head, its eyes were full of uneasiness, and it stretched out its paws to grab his brother's hand.
Ba Niu wiped his face vigorously, "It's not safe here, and it may not be safe in other places. There are so many mountains, so many trees, and there may be faults on the ground. If we encounter one, we will have to go around."
"It's dangerous, but it's also dangerous here." Xia Huoqu said solemnly, "I believe Xiao Nong's premonition, turn on the lights and drive slowly, and take a detour, it's better than staying here."
Yan Xiannian glanced over the rest of the people.
Cong Lian still had a calm expression, Liao Quannan was waiting for Yan Xiannian to make a decision, while Luo Congxin's eyes were staring straight, as if he had been stunned.
Yan Xiannian withdrew his gaze and patted Ba Niu on the shoulder, "I agree with Huo Qu's opinion. In this situation, intuition is more important than logic. Let's drive slowly and observe more, and there will be no problem."
The three of Cong Lian were not opposed to leaving.
Ba Niu looked at this and that, and had no choice but to agree, "Okay, whether it's good or bad, let's go together."
Ba Niu resigned himself to driving, Yan Xinian stopped him, "I will drive the rest of the way myself."
Xia Huo channel: "I will guide you by the side."
Yan Xiannian and Xia Huoqu had the best skills, and at such a dangerous time, it is indeed a lot more reassuring to leave it to him.
Ba Niu handed him the car keys, his whole body seemed to be vented, and he slowly climbed up the rear bucket.
Several people were exhausted and looked outside blankly.
Xia Lunong was carried to the passenger seat by his brother, and collapsed into a cat cake on his brother's lap, staring blankly at the impure night outside.
His head twitched, he was in pain all the time, and his body was uncomfortable everywhere, which made him even have no strength to speak.
The truck drove out slowly, and no one was in the mood to talk.
Xia Lunong's ears were sharp, and he heard a slight sobbing sound from inside the carriage.
It seemed to be Luo Congxin's voice.
Xia Huoqu sighed, "I don't know what's going on in the base now?"
Yan Xiannian focused on the road illuminated by the headlights, and carefully drove around one obstacle after another, "We have experienced so many earthquakes, everyone has experience, and with Dr. Ou here, nothing will happen."
"Hopefully."
"pat-"
While they were talking, a rain flower bloomed on the glass, and the water splashed in all directions, leaving a lot of traces.
Yan Xiannian's complexion changed slightly, and he hadn't had time to warn.
The raindrops hit the glass one after another, and the patter sounded into one piece, crackling, and the downpour enveloped the world in a blink of an eye.
Fortunately, there is a canopy above the car body, which can temporarily avoid the rain, so that everyone will not be drenched.
The smell of rain poured into the car with the wind.
The cool wind made Xia Lunong feel more comfortable. He lay sickly on his brother's lap, staring blankly at the outside of the car with emerald green eyes.
There was a vast expanse of whiteness outside the car, and even with the headlights turned on, it was impossible to see things three meters away.
In the torrential rain, the world seemed to be quiet.
Their car hadn't fully driven out of the mountainous area yet, even though the mountains on both sides were just small slopes, not steep, and far from the road, there was still a risk of landslides.
Especially right after the earthquake, when the mountain is vulnerable.
Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Yan Xiannian drove forward steadily and slowly, not daring to stop at all.
The window of the car was closed tightly, and Xia Lunong seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep, without any reaction.
Yan Xinian heaved a sigh of relief, this little guy had a great intuition, if he hadn't reminded them just now, they would be trapped in the valley now.
Just after the earthquake, there was heavy rain again, and the possibility of barrier lakes forming in the mountains is very high. If they stay in the valleys, they may face landslides and mudslides on the top of the mountains at any time.
The car was driving very slowly.
At this time, Yan Xiannian could no longer care about Petroleum, and kept the high beams on, trying to get the best view.
"Meow?" Xia Lunong, who was paralyzed on Xia Huoqu's lap, suddenly trembled at the tips of her ears, turned over and sat up, her eyes were focused on the outside, as if she was looking at something.
Yan Xiannian's heart trembled, "What did Xiao Nong discover?"
When they don't use the animal form, their eyesight is far inferior to that of Xia Lunong. Even if they use the animal form, it may not be as good as his intuition.
Yan Xiannian instinctively felt that something was going on ahead.
Xia Lunong's face was full of doubts, even a little frightened.
He couldn't speak, he could only motion his two elder brothers to follow his gaze, but he didn't see anything.
Xia Huoqu quickly took out the pen and paper and put it under his paws, "What's wrong?"
Xia Lunong glanced at his brother, took a pen in his mouth and wrote two words and a question mark crookedly on the paper: Is there anyone?
Part of the light from the headlights shone into the cab, and Xia Huoqu read softly following the words written by his brother: "Is there... someone... a question mark?"
As soon as the words fell, Xia Huoqu and Yan Xiannian quickly looked at each other, and they both saw shock in each other's eyes.
When Xia Lunong wrote these two characters under such circumstances, he simply wrote a horror story.
Even if the two of them are bold, they are a bit overwhelmed.
Xia Lunong's eyes were still puzzled, he held a pen in his mouth, his eyes looked through the windshield, after thinking for a while, he added the word "bird" under "you" and "person".
"There are... birds... people?" Xia Huoqu quickly realized after reading out, "Xiao Nong, do you mean there are birds or beasts in the sky?!"
Xia Lunong nodded with her pen in her mouth.
He had seen the wild geese that Luo Congzi had transformed into, and he had an intuition that the ones flying in the sky should be bird orcs instead of mutated birds.
It's just that the group of bird orcs seem to be very big.
Yan Xiannian didn't expect to be a bird orc.
If it was the bird orcs who migrated despite the strong wind and rain, then they must have encountered some danger.
In this unknown night, they also urgently need to find out if something else happened besides the earthquake.
After several turns in his thoughts, Yan Xinian pressed the horn without hesitation, trying to attract the attention of the bird orcs in the sky.
The horn of the big truck was very loud, even though it was pouring rain outside, it could be heard far away.
Xia Lunong lay on his brother's knee with her head tilted, listening intently to the movement ahead.
The bird orcs in the sky didn't seem to want to stop.
Yan Xiannian observed his expression, reached out and pressed the horn again.
This time, it is not just a long press, but three long and two short presses, alternately pressing, sending a dangerous signal to the outside.
Xia Lunong stood up, stood on his brother's thigh with his hind legs, pressed his front paws on the instrument panel, and stared intently at the night.
coming!
Yan Xiannian stopped the car, left the high beams on, and honked a set of three long and two short horns.
Ba Niu and the others asked at the top of their voices, "Captain Yan, what happened?"
With the sound of rain, Yan Xiannian also raised his voice, "There seem to be birds or beastmen in the sky."
"Fuck, there is still such a heavy rain?!"
Before Ba Niu finished speaking, Xia Lunong had already seen a huge black shadow swooping down towards them from outside the windshield.
The black shadow was too big and too fast, with huge wings spread out, at least three meters on one side, as big as a monster.
Especially the eyes, he could only see one side of the eyes, but he could clearly distinguish the full indifference from those eyes.
Even though Xia Lunong was mentally prepared, she was still shocked when she saw this scene, and the expression on the furry cat's face froze.
He stepped on the instrument panel with two paws, as if he was being targeted by a natural enemy, and his back burst into cold sweat.
It's an eagle!
He had never seen such a big eagle!
He didn't know until today that objects in an earthquake are shaken from side to side and not just up and down.
The truck shook violently on the ground, the rice and metal parts in the car were shaken everywhere, and the parts collided with each other making a "dong dong" sound.
